DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] The technical solution of the present invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.
[0019] The intelligent medicine placing machine leaks medicine box of this embodiment, refer to the attached Figure 1 and 2 The invention comprises a box body 1, a medicine leakage motor 2, a primary medicine control wheel 3 and a secondary medicine leakage wheel 4. A primary medicine storage bin 11 and a secondary medicine storage bin 12 are arranged in the box body 1. The primary medicine control wheel 3 and the secondary medicine leakage wheel 4 are arranged in the primary medicine storage bin 11 and the secondary medicine storage bin 12 respectively. The medicine leakage motor 2 is arranged at the bottom of the box body 1. The rotating shaft end of the medicine leakage motor 2 is connected with the primary medicine control wheel 3 and the secondary medicine leakage wheel 4. The bottom of the primary medicine storage bin 11 is provided with a primary medicine leakage hole 111 connected with the secondary medicine storage bin 12. A secondary drug leakage hole 121 penetrating through the outside of the box body 1 is provided at the bottom of the secondary drug storage bin 12, a plurality of drug control plates 31 are provided on the outside of the primary drug leakage wheel, and a plurality of drug control channels 43 are provided on the outside of the secondary drug leakage wheel 4; when the drug leakage motor 2 rotates, it drives the primary drug control wheel 3 to rotate so that the plurality of drug control plates 31 pass through the upper end of the primary drug leakage hole 111 in sequence, and at the same time drives the secondary drug leakage wheel 4 to rotate so that the plurality of drug control channels 43 pass through the bottom end of the primary drug leakage hole 111 and the upper end of the secondary drug leakage hole 121 in sequence.
[0020] By setting a primary drug controlling wheel 3 for guiding the drugs to fall evenly into the secondary drug storage bin 12, the problem of drug leakage hole blockage caused by the accumulation of drugs on the secondary wheel due to a large amount of drugs falling in is effectively avoided, thereby greatly reducing the risk of drug jam; in this embodiment, four evenly distributed drug controlling plates 31 are provided on the outer side of the primary drug controlling wheel 3. When drugs are put into the drug leakage box, the drugs will be randomly distributed in the four drug control spaces separated by the primary drug controlling wheel 3, so as to avoid drug jam caused by too much drugs accumulating on the primary drug leakage hole 111 at the same time; the primary drug storage cavity is set up to increase the drug storage capacity of the drug leakage box, and reduce the frequency of adding and changing drugs; by driving the rotation of the drug leakage motor 2, the rotation of the primary drug controlling wheel 3 and the secondary drug leakage wheel 4 can be driven at the same time, without the need to set additional driving elements, thus saving costs.
[0021] Preferably, refer to the attached Figure 3The bottom of the primary medicine storage bin 11 is a funnel-shaped structure that gradually narrows from the periphery to the middle, so that the medicines in the primary medicine storage bin 11 move toward the middle under the action of gravity, which plays a role in guiding the medicines to approach the primary medicine drop hole and improves the medicine leakage efficiency.
[0022] Preferably, refer to the attached Figure 4 and 5 , and further includes a medicine partition plate 51, the primary medicine leakage hole 111 and the secondary medicine leakage hole 121 are opposite to each other in the vertical direction, the medicine partition plate 51 is arranged between the primary medicine leakage hole 111 and the secondary medicine leakage hole 121, and the height of the medicine partition plate 51 is adjustable. By arranging the medicine partition plate 51 between the primary medicine leakage hole 111 and the secondary medicine leakage hole 121, and forming a small gap with the medicine control channel 43 on the secondary medicine leakage wheel 4, the setting of the medicine partition plate 51 effectively prevents the medicine from falling directly from the primary medicine leakage hole 111 to the secondary medicine leakage hole 121, ensuring that the medicine must be put in after a complete rotation of the secondary medicine leakage wheel 4, thereby improving the accuracy and controllability of medicine delivery.
[0023] Furthermore, it also includes a height adjustment plate 52, which is fixedly arranged on one side of the box body 1. A plurality of long holes 13 are also opened on one side of the box body 1, and one end of the medicine partition plate 51 is detachably connected to the height adjustment plate 52, and the other end of the medicine partition plate 51 extends into the secondary medicine storage bin 12 through the long hole 13. Thus, by setting a detachable connection between the height adjustment plate 52 and the medicine partition plate 51, the relative height of the medicine partition plate 51 in the box body 1 is adjustable. By adjusting the height of the medicine partition plate 51, the problem of drug jamming caused by some larger drugs being obliquely inverted in the drug control channel 43 and interfering with the medicine partition plate 51 is avoided. By opening a plurality of long holes 13 on one side of the box body 1, it is ensured that the medicine partition plate 51 can extend into the box body 1 after the height adjustment.
[0024] Preferably, refer to the attached Figure 6 and 7 The secondary drug leakage rotating wheel 4 includes a guide wheel 41 and a drug control wheel 42. The guide wheel 41 is arranged at the top of the rotating wheel part. A plurality of guide ramps 411 are arranged on the guide wheel 41. The drug control channel 43 is detachably arranged on the outside of the drug control wheel 42. By arranging the guide wheel 41 above the drug control wheel 42, after the drug falls from the primary drug leakage hole 111, it can slide into the drug control channel 43 according to a predetermined trajectory under the guidance of the guide ramp 411, thereby avoiding drug accumulation or drug jam on the secondary drug leakage rotating wheel 4. The drug control channel 43 is detachably arranged on the outside of the drug control wheel 42, so that the drug control channel 43 of different sizes can be replaced or adjusted according to actual needs to meet the delivery requirements of different drugs.
[0025] Furthermore, it also includes a limit block 422, and a plurality of slots 421 are provided on the outer side of the medicine control wheel 42. The limit block 422 is connected to the medicine control wheel 42 by mortise and tenon, and a medicine control channel 43 is formed on the outer side of the limit block 422. The mortise and tenon connection method enhances the stability of the medicine control channel 43, ensuring that the medicine control channel 43 will not move or fall off due to the impact of the medicine or the rotation of the secondary medicine leakage rotating wheel 4 during the medicine delivery process. The medicine control channel 43 is detachable by connecting the limit block 422 to the medicine control wheel 42 by mortise and tenon, which enables the medicine leakage box to adapt to medicines of different shapes, sizes and densities. The operator can select a limit block 422 with a medicine control channel 43 of a suitable size to cooperate with the medicine control wheel 42 according to actual needs, to ensure that the medicine can accurately and stably enter the secondary medicine storage bin 12 through the medicine control channel 43.
[0026] Preferably, an optical sensor 5 is also included, and the sensing probe of the optical sensor 5 is arranged at the bottom of the secondary drug leakage hole 121. The optical sensor 5 is used to detect the amount of drugs dropped from the secondary drug leakage hole 121 and to detect whether a drug jam or drug shortage fault occurs. The optical sensor 5 can accurately detect the amount of drugs dropped from the secondary drug leakage hole 121. Through the detection of the optical sensor 5, it is ensured that the amount of drugs delivered each time is consistent with the preset value, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of drug delivery. The setting of the optical sensor 5 can also monitor in real time whether a drug jam or drug shortage fault occurs. During the drug delivery process, if the optical sensor 5 still does not detect the drug falling after the drug leakage motor 2 rotates a certain angle, it can be determined that a drug jam or drug shortage occurs. At this time, an alarm can be issued to remind the operator to deal with it in time, avoiding drug delivery errors or delays caused by faults.
[0027] Preferably, it further comprises a connecting shaft 61, a first bearing 62 and a second bearing 63, the rotating shaft end of the medicine leakage motor 2 is connected to the bottom of the secondary medicine leakage wheel 4, the first bearing 62 is sleeved on the outer side of the rotating shaft end of the medicine leakage motor 2, the two ends of the connecting shaft 61 are respectively connected to the top of the primary medicine control wheel 3 and the secondary medicine leakage wheel 4, and the second bearing 63 is sleeved on the outer side of the connecting shaft 61. Thus, by setting the connecting shaft 61, the first bearing 62 and the second bearing 63, the primary medicine control wheel 3 and the secondary medicine leakage wheel 4 are coaxially connected, so that a single medicine leakage motor 2 can drive the primary medicine control wheel 3 and the secondary medicine leakage wheel 4 to rotate simultaneously.
[0028] Preferably, a control module is further included, the input end of the control module is electrically connected to the optical sensor 5, and the output end of the control module is electrically connected to the control end of the medicine leakage motor 2. When a medicine jam or medicine shortage fault occurs, the control module stops the medicine leakage motor 2 from working and outputs an alarm signal. By setting the control module to receive and process the optical sensor 5 signal and control the working state of the medicine leakage motor 2, when a medicine jam or medicine shortage fault occurs in the medicine leakage box, the medicine leakage motor 2 can be stopped, reducing the need for manual intervention, improving the efficiency and accuracy of fault handling, and outputting an alarm signal through the control module, thereby promptly reminding the operator to troubleshoot and repair the fault, thereby reducing medication errors or delays caused by faults.
[0029] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: first, the medicine is poured into the primary medicine storage bin 11, at which time most of the medicine is distributed in several spaces separated by the primary medicine control wheel 3 in the primary medicine storage bin 11, waiting for the medicine release signal; When a user needs medicine, the control module obtains the user's personal data and reads the quantity of medicine required; The control module controls the medicine leakage motor 2 to rotate, so that the primary medicine control wheel 3 rotates along with the medicine leakage motor 2, so that the medicines in the primary medicine storage bin 11 are swept into the primary medicine leakage hole 111 in sequence and evenly; After the medicine drops from the primary medicine leakage hole 111, it falls into the medicine control channel 43 outside the secondary medicine leakage rotation under the guidance of the guide ramp 411 of the secondary medicine leakage rotating wheel 4; The medicine leakage motor 2 continues to drive the secondary medicine leakage wheel 4 to rotate, so that the medicine falling into the medicine control channel 43 rotates under the limit of the medicine control channel 43 until it reaches the secondary medicine leakage hole 121, and the medicine falls from the secondary medicine leakage hole 121 to the outside of the box body 1. After the optical sensor senses the medicine falling, the control module counts and determines whether the number of dropped medicines meets the required number; When the amount of medicine dropped does not meet the demand, the medicine leakage motor 2 continues to rotate and the above steps are repeated; when the control module reads that the current amount of medicine dropped has met the required amount, the control module controls the medicine leakage motor 2 to stop rotating, and the entire medicine leakage process ends, and the user is reminded through interactive devices such as display screens; if a medicine jam or medicine shortage occurs, the control module stops the medicine leakage motor 2 from working and outputs an alarm signal.
[0030] The technical principle of the present invention is described above in conjunction with specific embodiments. These descriptions are only for explaining the principle of the present invention and cannot be interpreted as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention in any way. Based on the explanations herein, those skilled in the art can associate other specific implementations of the present invention without paying creative labor, and these methods will fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
