Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automatic dispensing equipment for traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces, and specifically relates to a feeding device for dispensing traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces. Background Art

[0002] In the patent application with the application publication number CN221625008U, it includes a frame, the frame is installed on an external traditional Chinese medicine dispenser through a mounting bracket; a conveyor belt, the conveyor belt is arranged on the frame; a roller device, the roller device is used to drive the conveyor belt to operate, the roller device is composed of a driving roller and a driven roller, the driving roller and the driven roller are respectively arranged at the front end and the rear end of the conveyor belt; a driving motor, the driving motor is used to drive the roller device to work, and the mounting shaft of the driving motor is inserted into the driving roller and transmitted through key connection; a printer frame, the printer frame is arranged above the discharge port, and a printer is arranged on the printer frame. The advantages are: simple structure, convenient to use, strong versatility, and adjustable speed.

[0003] In the prior art including the above patent, when transporting and dispensing medicinal materials, there will be a situation where the medicinal materials remain on the conveyor belt. In this way, as time goes by, the medicinal materials will have the risk of deterioration, thus affecting the safety of patients. And when replacing with new medicinal materials for dispensing, the remaining medicinal materials may also be put in together with the new medicinal materials, which will further increase the safety hazard. The common solution is to use a corrugated edge belt for transportation, and the baffles installed on its surface are mostly fixed by glue or screws. As the use time increases, after the baffles are turned over for a long time, gaps or even breaks will occur at the part connected to the conveyor belt. After the gaps are generated, the probability of medicinal material residue will increase, thus making it inconvenient to further reduce the safety hazard. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The problems to be solved by the present invention are: medicinal materials are likely to remain during transportation, and in the prior art, after the partitions on the corrugated edge belt are damaged, the risk of medicinal material residue will be further increased.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution of the present invention is: a feeding device for traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces dispensing, including a housing. There are two symmetrically arranged housings. A conveying component is arranged between the housings. The conveying component is used to convey traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces. The partition, roller two and conveyor belt two in the conveying component are used for auxiliary transportation and extending the service life of the device. A cleaning component is arranged inside the conveying component between the housings. The cleaning component is arranged at the discharging end of the conveying component. The mounting block in the cleaning component is used for assisting the discharging of the conveying component. The conveying component includes a roller one. The roller one is located at both ends of the housing. The outer surface of the roller one is provided with a conveyor belt one. Both sides of the conveyor belt one are located in the card slots in the housing. The conveyor belt one is slidably connected to the housing. A number of connecting belts are fixedly arranged in the middle of the conveyor belt one. Every two connecting belts form a group. The toughness of the connecting belt is stronger than that of the conveyor belt one. A partition is fixedly arranged between each group of connecting belts. An installation plate is opened on the lower side inside the partition. A counterweight block is fixedly arranged at the lower end of the installation plate. Magnets are fixedly arranged on both sides and the lower end of the counterweight block. A metal strip is arranged inside the conveyor belt one near the end close to the counterweight block. The counterweight block is slidably connected to both the partition and the conveyor belt one at the same time. Wave belts are arranged on both sides of the partition. The lower end of the wave belt is fixedly connected to the conveyor belt one. A support one is arranged between the roller ones in the middle of the conveyor belt one. Both ends of the conveyor belt one are fixedly connected to the housing. Roller two are arranged on both sides of the support one. Both ends of the roller two are rotatably connected to the support one. A conveyor belt two is arranged outside the roller two and the support one. The conveyor belt two is slidably connected to the support one. A clamping block is fixedly arranged on the outer surface of the conveyor belt two. The clamping block is made of metal. The clamping block is located on one side of the counterweight block. A cushion block is slidably arranged between the clamping blocks. Both sides of the cushion block are connected to the guide rail grooves on the clamping blocks through guide rails. The cushion block is arranged above the support one and the roller two close to the discharging end.

[0006] Preferably, the cleaning component includes a support two. The support two is arranged at one end close to the discharging of the conveyor belt one. The upper end of the support two is slidably connected to the conveyor belt one. The support two is located between the roller one and the roller two at the discharging end. A number of mounting seats are fixedly arranged at the lower end of the support two. A spring is fixedly arranged at the upper end inside the mounting seat. An installation block is fixedly arranged at the lower end of the spring.

[0007] Preferably, the installation block is also slidably connected to the mounting seat. One side of the installation block close to the roller one passes through the mounting seat. A roller is rotatably arranged at the lower end of the installation block. Expansion rods are fixedly arranged around the spring at the upper end of the installation block. The upper end of the expansion rod is fixedly connected to the mounting seat. A stop block is slidably arranged on one side of the mounting seat below the installation block.

[0008] Preferably, both the upper and lower surfaces of the stopper are inclined surfaces. An elastic component is fixedly arranged on the side of the stopper away from the first roller. The other end of the elastic component is fixedly connected to the third bracket, and the third bracket is simultaneously fixedly connected to the mounting block. A third roller shaft is arranged between the mounting seat and the first roller. The third roller shaft is connected to the first roller through a gear. A dial block is fixedly arranged on the outer surface of the third roller shaft. The dial block is located on one side of the mounting block, and the dial blocks are spirally distributed on the dial block.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present invention has the following advantages:

[0010] (1) Through the setting of the conveying component, the present device can improve the conveying efficiency while extending the service life of the device: By changing the connection method between the partition plate and the first conveyor belt and adopting a flexible connection, it is possible to avoid strong pulling on the bottom of the partition plate when it flips at the first roller, which can reduce or avoid the occurrence of gaps or even fractures at the connection between the partition plate and the conveyor belt, thereby extending the service life of the partition plate. Furthermore, it can prevent medicinal materials from getting stuck in the gaps. With the settings of the second conveyor belt, the clamping blocks, and the cushion blocks, when transporting ordinary medicinal materials, only the cushion blocks are needed to force the partition plate to be perpendicular to the first conveyor belt. When transporting a large amount of easily rolling medicinal materials, the angle of the partition plate can be changed by adjusting the distance between the clamping blocks and the counterweight blocks, which can prevent the medicinal materials from rolling off the partition plate during transportation. Moreover, by changing the arrangement of the clamping blocks, the partition plates can be inclined relative to or opposite to each other pairwise, which can further improve the transportation efficiency and capacity of the device. It should be noted that since the second conveyor belt and the clamping blocks do not come into direct contact with the medicinal materials, the generation of gaps between the second conveyor belt and the clamping blocks will not affect the transported medicinal materials themselves.

[0011] (2) Through the cleaning component, the present device can remove the medicinal materials adhering to the first conveyor belt during feeding and returning. By repeatedly hammering down the mounting block, the medicinal materials adhering to the first conveyor belt, the connecting belt, and the corrugated belt can be shaken off. In this way, it is possible to choose whether to receive these adhering medicinal materials according to the type of medicinal materials, and only the size of the receiving hopper needs to be changed, which can reduce the loss of medicinal materials during transportation. And after changing the requirements, fewer parts need to be changed, thereby further reducing the cost during use. It should be noted that the rollers below the mounting block can further reduce the friction between the mounting block and the first conveyor belt, avoiding excessive wear of the first conveyor belt. The reason for using the mounting block to hammer the first conveyor belt instead of a vibration motor is that the amplitude and duration generated during the hammering of the mounting block are much lower than those of the vibration motor, which can maximize the avoidance of the impact of the cleaning component on the medicinal materials being transported above.

[0028] The working principle and usage process of the present invention: When transporting medicinal materials, the medicinal materials enter between the partitions 204 and move towards the discharge end as the first conveyor belt 202 rotates. The transportation is divided into three stages in total:

[0029] Firstly, during the transportation stage, the counterweight 206 inside the partition 204 can move upward under the action of the cushion block 212 and get stuck between the outside of the partition 204 and the first conveyor belt 202. At this time, the partition 204 can always be perpendicular to the first conveyor belt 202. It should be noted that at this time, the second conveyor belt 210 remains stationary. When transporting relatively easily rollable medicinal materials, if the single input amount of the medicinal materials is not large, there is no need to make any changes. Otherwise, the cushion block 212 needs to be taken out and the second conveyor belt 210 is turned on. At this time, the counterweight 206 will move downward under the action of gravity. After the second conveyor belt 210 is turned on, the rotation speed of the first conveyor belt 202 needs to be adapted so that the locking block 211 is always on one side of the counterweight 206, and the angle of the partition 204 can be changed by changing the distance between the locking block 211 and the counterweight 206;

[0030] Secondly, during the blanking stage, the first roller 201 and the second support 301 will force the counterweight 206 to move upward and force the partition 204 to remain perpendicular to the first conveyor belt 202. At this time, the connecting belt 203 bulges;

[0031] Finally, in the return stage, as the third roller 309 rotates with the first roller 201, it can press the mounting block 304 downward in sequence. When pressing, the mounting block 304 first contacts the stop block 306 and, under the continuous pressure of the third roller 309, forcibly squeezes the stop block 306 to one side. When the stop block 306 is completely squeezed to one side, the mounting block 304 can hammer the first conveyor belt 202 near the partition plate 204 at a relatively high speed. At this time, the partition plate 204 naturally droops due to gravity and the connecting belt 203 also bulges downward. When the mounting block 304 hammers the first conveyor belt 202, the force generated by the hammering can be used to remove the medicinal materials remaining on the surface of the first conveyor belt 202, the surface of the connecting belt 203, and the angle between the wave belt 207. When the mounting block 304 resets, the spring 303 pulls the mounting block 304 upward. When encountering the stop block 306, because the slope of the lower inclined surface of the stop block 306 is greater than that of the upper inclined surface, only the pulling force of the spring 303 is required during reset.

The protection scope of the present invention is defined by the claims. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or equivalent replacements within the essence and protection scope of the present invention, and such modifications or equivalent replacements should also be regarded as falling within the protection scope of the present invention.
