Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical automation equipment and relates to a comprehensive medicine dispensing control method and device. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous expansion of medical institutions and the growing demand for services, traditional manual or semi-automatic drug distribution methods can no longer meet the requirements of fast and accurate drug distribution. Therefore, the development of efficient self-service drug distribution systems has become an important part of modern hospital management. Such systems not only need to be able to handle large quantities of drugs, but also be able to adapt to different types of drug storage and distribution needs to improve the quality and efficiency of medical services.
[0003] Most of the existing self-service medicine dispensing machines can only handle a single type of medicine (such as boxed medicine), which makes them incapable of meeting the diverse needs of medicine distribution. Due to the lack of support for different types of medicines, these devices often cannot fully meet the requirements of outpatient clinics or hospitals for the rapid distribution of multiple medicines, which limits their application scenarios and may lead to errors and delays in the drug distribution process. In addition, although some existing systems support the distribution of multiple types of medicines, they are insufficient in drug identification and distribution sequence control, which can easily cause damage to drugs or distribution errors, affecting the reliability of the system and the safety of patients.

[0056] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0057] Embodiment 1:
[0058] Please refer to Figure 1 , is a comprehensive drug dispensing control method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, which is applicable to a comprehensive drug dispensing device, such as Figure 3The hardware structure diagram of a comprehensive drug dispensing device shown in the figure, the comprehensive drug dispensing device comprises: a transmission system and a plurality of drug slot devices 31; the transmission system comprises a conveyor belt 33 and an elevator 32 for driving the conveyor belt to rise and fall; the conveyor belt 33 is installed on one side of the drug dispensing direction of each drug slot device 31 of the comprehensive drug dispensing device through a support frame; the drug slot device 31 comprises one or more combinations of the following: a drug slot device for subpackaged medicine, a drug slot device for injection medicine, and a drug slot device for boxed medicine;
[0059] The comprehensive drug dispensing control method comprises steps S1 to S4:
[0060] Step S1: Obtain the user's medication collection information and the specification information of the integrated medication dispensing device.
[0061] Specifically, the medicine collection information includes the boxed medicine information, injection medicine information and packaged medicine information in the user's medicine list, and the specification information is the storage location information of various medicines in the comprehensive medicine dispensing device, and also includes the inventory information of each medicine.
[0062] In this embodiment, step S1 obtains the user's medication collection information and the specification information of the comprehensive medication dispensing device to accurately understand the user's needs and device configuration, thereby providing basic data support for subsequent operations.
[0063] Step S2: determining a first transmission path of an elevator in a transmission system according to the specification information and the medicine taking information;
[0064] Wherein, the first transmission path includes: a first-level position where a plurality of medicine trough devices are respectively located and a second-level position where the medicine outlet of the integrated medicine dispensing device is located.
[0065] Preferably, step S2 can be implemented by the following preferred implementation, including steps S21-S23, which are specifically as follows:
[0066] S21: Acquire the information of the subpackaged medicines, injection medicines and boxed medicines to be taken from the medicine taking information;
[0067] S22: According to the specification information, matching and determining the hierarchical position numbers of the medicine slot devices corresponding to the subpackaged medicine information, the injection medicine information to be taken, and the boxed medicine information respectively;
[0068] S23: According to the preset priority condition of the medicine taking type, the hierarchical position numbers are connected in sequence, and the hierarchical position number where the medicine outlet of the comprehensive medicine dispensing device is located is taken as the end point to obtain a first transmission path.
[0069] In the specific implementation, because there is a risk that subpackaged medicines and injectable medicines may be squeezed and damaged by other medicines when taking them out, when setting the priority conditions, the subpackaged medicines should be taken out in the order of boxed medicines first and subpackaged medicines first over injectable medicines. Even if the medicines are stacked, it can be ensured that the injectable medicines are at the top, the subpackaged medicines are in the middle layer, and the boxed medicines are at the bottom, avoiding the risk of squeezing and damage. In addition, according to the actual situation, if the medicine outlet is located on the fourth floor and most of the medicine troughs are placed on the fifth floor and above, dispensing medicines from the upper floor can allow the elevator to reach the medicine trough position by the shortest path, reducing unnecessary up and down movement. Therefore, the priority conditions can also be set at the same time, and the same type of medicines (such as multiple boxed medicines) can be taken out in the order of priority of the upper floor.
[0070] In a preferred embodiment, steps S21-S23 parse the information of subpackaged medicine, injection medicine and boxed medicine in the medicine collection information, and match the corresponding medicine slot device hierarchical position number according to the specification information. Then, based on the preset medicine collection type priority conditions (for example, first process the boxed medicine, then the subpackaged medicine, and finally process the injection medicine), the hierarchical position numbers are connected in sequence to construct a first transmission path with the hierarchical position number of the medicine outlet as the end point; not only the safety of drug distribution is ensured, and the heavier or larger boxed medicines are prevented from crushing the smaller or fragile injection medicines, but also the vertical movement distance of the elevator is reduced through reasonable path planning, which speeds up the distribution speed, reduces mechanical wear, and prolongs the service life of the equipment.
[0071] Step S3: According to the first transmission path, the elevator is controlled to transmit in sequence, and when the elevator is transmitted to the first level position, the medicine trough device corresponding to the current level position is controlled to distribute medicines to the conveyor belt.
[0072] Preferably, step S3 can be implemented by the following preferred implementation, including steps S31-S34, which are specifically as follows:
[0073] S31: When the elevator is transmitted to the level position of the boxed medicine slot device, the camera device of the elevator is controlled to be transmitted to the current medicine slot device corresponding to the boxed medicine information to be taken in the medicine taking information.
[0074] S32: Obtain the medicine image of the current medicine slot device according to the camera device, and identify whether the information of the medicine image is consistent with the information of the boxed medicine to be taken according to a preset template matching recognition algorithm; if they are consistent, send a first control signal to the boxed medicine slot device to enable the boxed medicine slot device to dispense the corresponding medicine.
[0075] In specific implementation, Figure 7The schematic diagram of the elevator and the conveyor belt shown in FIG. 3 is a diagram of a lift 32, wherein a camera 35 is installed on the lift 32, wherein the camera 35 can be rotated to adjust the angle to shoot the drug image, and before recognition, the packaging of various types of boxed drugs can be firstly collected by template, and after the actual image is subsequently captured, the comparative recognition can be performed by feature point matching; in addition, as Figure 4 The structural schematic diagram of the box-packed medicine trough device shown in the figure, the box-packed medicine trough device includes a horizontal medicine trough 41, a motor-driven belt device 43 and a baffle 42. When the first control signal is received, the motor drives the belt transmission and drives the baffle 42 to move, and the box-packed medicine on the horizontal medicine trough 41 is pushed out of the horizontal medicine trough 41 to complete the medicine distribution.
[0076] In this preferred embodiment, steps S31-S32 ensure the accuracy of image acquisition by adjusting the position of the camera device to align with the current medicine slot device; then, the camera device captures the image of the medicine and uses a preset template matching recognition algorithm to verify whether the medicine meets expectations. If the match is successful, a first control signal is sent to achieve accurate distribution of the boxed medicine. This confirmation mechanism effectively reduces the problem of drug confusion caused by medication errors and ensures the safety and reliability of distribution.
[0077] S33: When the elevator is transmitted to the level position of the injection medicine trough device, a second control signal is sent to the injection medicine trough device to enable the injection medicine trough device to dispense corresponding medicines.
[0078] In specific implementation, Figure 5 The structural schematic diagram of the injection medicine trough device shown in the figure, the injection medicine trough device includes: a locking structure 51 and a sensor 52 driven by a motor. When the second control signal is received, the motor drives the locking structure 51 to be transmitted to the sensor 52. After the sensor 52 obtains the sensing signal, it sends a release instruction, so that the spring on the locking structure 51 is loosened to release the injection medicine and fall off the injection medicine trough device from the side of the sensor 52, thereby completing the drug distribution.
[0079] In this preferred embodiment, after receiving the signal that the elevator has reached the designated position, step S33 immediately sends a second control signal to the injection medicine trough device to trigger its preparation for distribution; through automated control logic, human intervention is reduced, the risk of operational errors is reduced, and it is ensured that the injection medicine can be safely distributed at the right time.
[0080] S34: When the elevator is transmitted to the level position of the medicine sub-package trough device, a third control signal is sent to the medicine sub-package trough device to enable the medicine sub-package trough device to dispense corresponding medicines.
[0081] In specific implementation, Figure 6The schematic diagram of the structure of the medicine sub-package trough device shown in the figure comprises: a slide 61 driven by a motor and a sensor, the slide is provided with a multi-layer compartment structure 62, the sensor is installed at the bottom of each compartment structure 62, when the medicine is placed in the compartment structure 62, the sensor is blocked and identifies the presence of the medicine, when the medicine sub-package trough device receives the third control signal, the motor drives the slide 61 to rotate so that the medicine in the compartment structure 62 is thrown out of the medicine sub-package trough device, thereby completing the medicine dispensing.
[0082] In this preferred embodiment, after receiving the signal that the elevator has reached the designated position, step S34 sends a third control signal to the sub-packaged medicine trough device to trigger its preparation for distribution; through automated control logic, human intervention is reduced, the risk of operational errors is reduced, and it is ensured that the sub-packaged medicine can be distributed at the right time.
[0083] Step S4: When the elevator is transmitted to the second level position, the conveyor belt is controlled to transmit the medicines on the conveyor belt to the medicine outlet to complete the dispensing of the medicines.
[0084] In specific implementation, Figure 3 The hardware structure diagram of the comprehensive drug dispensing device shown in the figure, the comprehensive drug dispensing device is also provided with a drug outlet 34. After all the drugs to be taken are distributed to the conveyor belt 33, the elevator 32 drives the conveyor belt 33 to the level where the drug outlet 34 is located, and then the conveyor belt 33 is driven by the motor to transport the drugs to the drug outlet 34 to complete the drug dispensing.
[0085] In this embodiment, step S4 completes the entire distribution process by transferring the medicine from the conveyor belt to the medicine outlet.
[0086] In summary, compared with the prior art, the above embodiments of the present application have the following beneficial effects: by obtaining the user's medicine collection information and the specification information of the comprehensive medicine dispensing device, the user's needs and equipment configuration are accurately understood, providing basic data support for subsequent operations; then, the first transmission path of the elevator is constructed based on this information to ensure the optimal planning of mechanical actions, reduce unnecessary movements, and improve efficiency; when the elevator reaches the designated position, the medicine trough device is accurately controlled to distribute the medicine to the conveyor belt, ensuring that each medicine can be delivered correctly; finally, the entire distribution process is completed by transferring the medicine from the conveyor belt to the medicine outlet.
