[0019] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The illustrative embodiments and descriptions are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0020] like Figures 1-8 As shown, it uses a centrifugal disc motor 1 to drive the centrifugal disc 2 to rotate, throwing the medicine on the centrifugal disc 2 onto the dispensing disc 4. The dispensing disc 4 rotates under the drive of the dispensing disc motor 8, conveying the medicine through a counter for counting. It has an internal container 6, with the centrifugal disc 2 located inside the container 6. The centrifugal disc 2 forms an angle greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees with the horizontal plane. The motor 1 is installed at the bottom of the container 6, and the motor shaft passes through the bottom plate of the container 6 and is fixed to the center of the centrifugal disc 2 with screws 3. The interior of the container 6 above the centrifugal disc 2 is the medicine storage area 5. The motor 1 drives the centrifugal disc 2 to rotate, throwing the medicine on the centrifugal disc 2 onto the dispensing disc 4. It also includes a high... The system includes a height adjuster 11, a height limit stop 12, a width limit stop 13, and a position adjustment device 14. The height adjuster 11 is mounted on the housing, and the height limit stop 12 is mounted on the height adjuster 11. The height adjuster 11 controls the height limit stop 12 to move up and down above the medicine discharge tray 4, changing the height difference between the height limit stop 12 and the medicine discharge tray 4. The position adjustment device 14 is mounted on the housing, and the width limit stop 13 is mounted on the position adjustment device 14. The position adjustment device 14 controls the width limit stop 13 to move left and right above the medicine discharge tray 4, changing the closest distance between the width limit stop 13 and the inner edge circle of the medicine discharge tray 4. The height adjuster 11 and the position adjustment device 14 are not strictly required and can be purchased commercially, such as screw type, rack and pinion type, variable cylinder type, synchronous belt type, etc., as long as they can achieve position adjustment.

[0021] See Figure 3 The medicine dispensing tray 4 rotates, carrying the medicine on it through the space between the medicine dispensing tray 4 and the height limiting baffle 12. If the medicine stands upright, it will be blocked and flattened by the height limiting baffle 12. When changing to different types of medicine, simply adjust the height of the channel between the height limiting baffle 12 and the medicine dispensing tray 4 according to the height of the corresponding medicine. The height of the channel between the height limiting baffle 12 and the medicine dispensing tray 4 is adjusted by the height adjuster 11 to move the height limiting baffle 12 up and down.

[0022] See Figure 1, the drug disc 4 rotates, and the medicine on the drug disc 4 passes through the channel between the drug disc 4 and the width limiting baffle 13. The width of the channel between the drug disc 4 and the width limiting baffle 13 limits the width of the medicine that can pass through. If the medicine is tilted, it will fall back to the centrifugal disc 2 due to the deviation of the center of gravity, thereby ensuring that the medicine that can pass through is consistent in direction. When different types of medicines are replaced, only the width of the channel between the drug disc 4 and the width limiting baffle 13 needs to be adjusted according to the width of the corresponding type of medicine. The width of the channel between the drug disc 4 and the width limiting baffle 13 can be controlled by the position adjusting device 14 to move the width limiting baffle 13 left and right on the upper part of the drug disc 4.

[0023] In addition, it adopts an inclined centrifugal disc design, uses the medicine storage formed by the centrifugal disc and the container wall to store medicines, changes the traditional planar storage to three-dimensional storage, greatly increases the medicine storage capacity, and offsets the plane of the centrifugal disc and the plane of the medicine disc. After the medicine is thrown onto the medicine disc, part of the medicine with the center of gravity inside the medicine disc will fall back into the container during the conveying process of the medicine disc, completely separates from the stable medicine on the medicine disc, solves the interference problem during the conveying process, and greatly improves the conveying capacity.
