Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of intelligent traditional Chinese medicine dispensing, and particularly relates to an intelligent traditional Chinese medicine quantitative dispensing system, an automatic medicine dispensing cabinet and a dispensing method. Background Art

[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine cabinets are often used to store various different medicinal materials. At present, most of the traditional Chinese medicine cabinets in major pharmacies are composed of wooden boards, including a storage cabinet with multiple drawers. Each drawer stores traditional Chinese medicine materials, and a label is pasted on each drawer. When dispensing medicine, the corresponding medicinal materials are found according to the label, the drawer is pulled out, and the traditional method of manually grasping and weighing is used to prepare the medicine.

[0003] In order to improve the efficiency and accuracy of traditional Chinese medicine dispensing, an automatic medicine dispensing and discharging cabinet has been created in the existing Internet + medical field. For example, in the invention patent with the application number: CN202010968759.4, the prescription issued by the doctor is directly transmitted to the pharmacy through the network for dispensing medicine, reducing the time wasted in the transmission of the prescription. At the same time, when the doctor issues a prescription, the inventory of medicinal materials is detected in real time. When the medicinal materials are insufficient, the doctor is prompted in time to avoid the situation where there is no remaining amount of the medicinal materials in the prescription issued by the doctor, resulting in the patient being unable to obtain the prepared medicine and affecting the treatment.

[0004] After the medicine discharging module receives the prescription, during the front-end dispensing work, the medicine discharging module analyzes the prescription to obtain the types of medicinal materials required and the quantity of each medicinal material. Then, the data obtained from the analysis is combined with the medicinal material storage location information in the dispensing device to be transformed into the movement information of the dispensing device, controlling the correct movement of the components in the dispensing device to take out the medicinal materials with the correct types and quantities. Finally, the taken-out medicinal materials are put into the medicine box and the medicine box is sent to the patient's hand to complete the dispensing of the prescription.

[0005] However, the following defects still exist in the existing patents:

[0006] Firstly, there is a lack of an overall dispensing management method for the single-dose drug dispensing work and the total number of dispensing times of the prescription. For example, during the single-dose drug dispensing work, after the drug discharged from a certain drug storage area is taken away, it is impossible to determine how to carry out the next drug discharging work for that drug storage area. If a secondary drug discharging action is immediately carried out after the drug discharged from a certain drug storage area is taken away, it is impossible to determine whether the drug has been taken out, resulting in the problem that the connection between adjacent two dispensing works is prone to cross, so the safety and orderliness of the entire automatic dispensing are affected.

[0007] Secondly, when traditional Chinese medicine drugs are in the form of tablets or granules, such as salvia miltiorrhiza, ophiopogon japonicus, atractylodes macrocephala, etc., the drug discharging work can be achieved by opening the drug discharging port. However, for herbal medicines, such as motherwort, viola philippica, plantain herb, etc., when the drug discharging port is opened, the herbal medicines are not easy to fall, and the existing automatic medicine dispensing cabinets lack the forced-descending drug discharging work for herbal medicines. Summary of the Invention

[0047] Step 500: The two-dimensional coordinate values in the dispensing instruction form a medicine picking point, and an optimal medicine picking path is formed based on the medicine picking point. The moving position of the medicine picking unit is monitored in real time. When the moving position of the medicine picking unit coincides with the medicine picking point of the optimal medicine picking path, the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism is controlled to perform a medicine dispensing action;

[0048] Step 600: When the optimal medicine picking path is completed, repeat steps 300 - 500 until the number of times the dispensing instruction is generated is the same as the total number of dispensing times.

[0066] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0067] As Figure 1 shown, the present invention provides an intelligent traditional Chinese medicine quantitative dispensing system, including an automatic medicine dispensing cabinet 2, a medicine dispensing cabinet two - dimensional construction module 1, and a prescription information processing system 3.

[0068] The automatic medicine dispensing cabinet 2 includes multiple medicine storage areas 21 for storing drugs independently, and an automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22 arranged in each medicine storage area 21. A medicine receiving area is arranged at the exit of each medicine storage area 21, and all the medicine storage areas 21 are distributed in a determinant order.

[0069] The medicine dispensing cabinet two - dimensional construction module 1 is used to construct a two - dimensional coordinate system of the automatic medicine dispensing cabinet 2 to determine the two - dimensional coordinate values corresponding to each medicine storage area 21.

[0070] The prescription information processing system 3 is communicatively connected to the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22. The prescription information processing system 3 is used to receive a prescription and analyze the prescription to determine the drugs included in the prescription and the two - dimensional coordinate values corresponding to the medicine storage areas 21 where each drug is located. The prescription information processing system 3 controls the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22 to perform a medicine dispensing action based on the two - dimensional coordinate values corresponding to the medicine storage areas 21 where each drug is located.

[0071] Among them, the prescription information processing system 3 includes:

[0072] The prescription analysis module 31 is set at the medicine dispensing end and is used to sequentially identify the medicine dispensing information in each prescription according to the prescription import time sequence, including the name of each medicine, the weight of the medicine for single dispensing, and the total number of dispensing times.

[0073] The medicine dispensing drive module 32 is used to generate a medicine dispensing instruction by combining the name of each medicine identified by the prescription analysis module 31, the weight of the medicine for single dispensing, and the two-dimensional coordinate values corresponding to each medicine storage area 21 determined by the two-dimensional construction module 1 of the medicine cabinet, and form an optimal medicine picking path for single dispensing by combining the two-dimensional coordinate values corresponding to multiple medicines in the medicine dispensing information.

[0074] After receiving the medicine dispensing instruction, the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22 of the automatic medicine cabinet 2 automatically dispenses the medicine stored in the medicine storage area 21 quantitatively to the medicine receiving area, and after picking up all the medicines in the medicine receiving area in sequence according to the optimal medicine picking path, triggers the medicine dispensing drive module 32 again to generate a medicine dispensing instruction until the number of times of generating the medicine dispensing instruction is the same as the total number of dispensing times, and completes the automatic quantitative medicine dispensing work for a single prescription.

[0075] In practical application, an intelligent traditional Chinese medicine quantitative dispensing system provided by this embodiment specifically includes a prescription prescribing end and a medicine dispensing end. The prescription prescribing end is the prescription written by a doctor. In addition, a prescription can also be directly imported into the prescription information processing system 3. After the prescription is collected by the prescription information processing system 3, the prescription information processing system 3 can identify the medicines in the prescription, the dosage of each medicine for single dispensing, and the total number of dispensing times of each medicine, and control the medicine dispensing work for the medicine storage area 21 corresponding to the identified medicine in the automatic medicine cabinet 2, and automatically calculate the dosage of the dispensed medicine during medicine dispensing. Compared with the traditional traditional Chinese medicine cabinet, the intelligent traditional Chinese medicine cabinet has great advantages in terms of medicine picking efficiency, accuracy, operation convenience, etc.

[0076] In addition, for the single dispensing work of this embodiment, the medicine dispensing work for the medicine storage area 21 corresponding to the medicine during the single dispensing work is controlled at the same time. Therefore, based on the two-dimensional coordinate values corresponding to each medicine storage area, an optimal medicine picking path is formed. After picking up all the dispensed medicines in sequence according to the optimal medicine picking path, the next round of single dispensing work is carried out. Such medicine dispensing management work can effectively avoid the problem of drug duplication in adjacent two dispensing works and improve the safety and orderliness of the entire automatic dispensing.

[0077] In this embodiment, a matching relationship is established between the drugs in each medicine storage area 21 and the storage positions (two-dimensional coordinate values) corresponding to each drug. Therefore, when the prescription information processing system 3 identifies the drug information based on the drug information identified by the prescription analysis module (31), it can determine the two-dimensional coordinate values corresponding to the medicine storage areas 21 that need to be dispensed according to the matching relationship between the drugs and the two-dimensional coordinate values, define corresponding two-dimensional coordinate values for each automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22, and drive the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22 corresponding to the two-dimensional coordinate values to work to achieve automatic medicine dispensing.

[0078] Suppose there are 6 types of drugs in a certain prescription, and the storage positions of each drug in the automatic medicine dispensing cabinet 2 are (x1, y1), (x2, y2), (x3, y3), (x4, y4), (x5, y5), (x6, y6). Then when dispensing medicine for this prescription, the automatic medicine dispensing mechanisms (22) in the six medicine storage areas 21 where the drugs are stored at (x1, y1), (x2, y2), (x3, y3), (x4, y4), (x5, y5), (x6, y6) are simultaneously controlled to work, and the weight of the drug dispensed by the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22 each time is the same as the single-dose dispensing amount of the drug.

[0079] When the drugs in the six medicine storage areas 21 at (x1, y1), (x2, y2), (x3, y3), (x4, y4), (x5, y5), (x6, y6) are taken out in sequence, the dispensing instruction is completed. Repeat the medicine dispensing in the six medicine storage areas 21 at (x1, y1), (x2, y2), (x3, y3), (x4, y4), (x5, y5), (x6, y6) until it is the same as the total dispensing times of each drug, and complete the intelligent quantitative medicine dispensing work for this prescription.

[0080] The medicine dispensing drive module 32 forms a dispensing instruction based on the types of drugs corresponding to the single-dose dispensing identified by the prescription identification module 31, and the prescription information processing system 3 controls the medicine storage area 21 to dispense medicine according to the dispensing instruction.

[0081] Furthermore, a marker lamp assembly can be installed at the position of each medicine storage area 21, a matching relationship is established between the marker lamp assembly and the two-dimensional coordinate values, a data stack of the drug, the marker lamp assembly, and the two-dimensional coordinate values is formed, and the prescription information processing system 3 controls the marker lamp assembly within the two-dimensional coordinate values corresponding to each drug to work based on the types of drugs corresponding to the single-dose dispensing in the dispensing instruction.

[0082] The medicine dispensing work can also be combined with the work of intelligent machines to determine the two-dimensional coordinate values (x1, y1), (x2, y2), (x3, y3), (x4, y4), (x5, y5), (x6, y6) of the medicines in prescription A corresponding to the medicine storage area 21. Based on the two-dimensional coordinate values of the dispensed medicines, an optimal medicine picking path (x1, y1), (x2, y2), (x3, y3), (x4, y4), (x5, y5), (x6, y6) is constructed and imported into the intelligent machine. The intelligent machine picks medicines in sequence according to the imported two-dimensional coordinate values (x1, y1), (x2, y2), (x3, y3), (x4, y4), (x5, y5), (x6, y6).

[0083] The medicine dispensing instruction includes the medicine name, the medicine weight for each single medicine dispensing, and the two-dimensional coordinate value corresponding to the medicine.

[0084] The medicine dispensing driving module 32 matches and drives the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22 in the medicine storage area 21 corresponding to the two-dimensional coordinate value based on the two-dimensional coordinate value corresponding to each medicine, and the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22 dispenses medicine according to the medicine weight for each single medicine dispensing.

[0085] In addition, in order to optimize the medicine picking path of the intelligent machine and avoid the situation of path redundancy caused by repeatedly returning to the origin, the optimal medicine picking paths corresponding to two adjacent medicine dispensing instructions issued by the medicine dispensing driving module 32 are exactly opposite, so the intelligent machine can realize reciprocating movement.

[0086] For example, when picking medicines according to the second medicine dispensing instruction, at this time, the optimal medicine picking path is (x6, y6), (x5, y5), (x4, y4), (x3, y3), (x2, y2), (x1, y1), which improves the efficiency of medicine dispensing and picking.

[0087] A weighing unit 4 for weighing the dispensed traditional Chinese medicine is provided on the upper end surface of each medicine receiving area. The weighing unit 4 and the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22 in each medicine storage area 21 are connected to a sub-control unit 5, and the sub-control unit 5 is communicatively connected to the prescription information processing system 3.

[0088] When the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22 drives to dispense medicine, when the weighing result of the weighing unit 4 is the same as the medicine weight for each single medicine dispensing in the medicine dispensing instruction, the sub-control unit 5 regulates the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22 to reset and close the outlet of the medicine storage area 21.

[0089] When the weights of all the weighing units 4 in the same medicine dispensing instruction are 0, the prescription information processing system 3 regulates the medicine dispensing driving module 32 to issue a medicine dispensing instruction again to regulate the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22 to work again for dispensing medicine until the weighing result of the weighing unit 4 is the same as the medicine weight for each single medicine dispensing in the medicine dispensing instruction.

[0090] The prescription information processing system 3 counts the number of times the medicine dispensing driving module 32 issues a medicine dispensing instruction until the number of times the medicine dispensing driving module 32 issues a medicine dispensing instruction is the same as the total number of medicine dispensings, and when the weights of all weighing units 4 in the same medicine dispensing instruction are 0, the quantitative medicine dispensing work for a single prescription is completed.

[0091] As can be seen from the above, the medicine dispensing process of the intelligent traditional Chinese medicine quantitative medicine dispensing system in this embodiment is specifically as follows:

[0092] ① The doctor's terminal issues a prescription, and the prescription issuing module 1 collects the prescription issued by the doctor. The prescription is provided with the prescription issuing time, drug name, single-dose drug dispensing amount, and total number of medicine dispensings for each drug.

[0093] ② The prescription information processing system 3 receives the prescription collected by the prescription issuing module. The prescription parsing module 31 identifies the information on the prescription and determines the two-dimensional coordinate value of the storage location of the drug in the automated medicine dispensing cabinet 2 based on the information on the prescription.

[0094] ③ The medicine dispensing driving module 32 of the prescription information processing system 3 generates a medicine dispensing instruction and sends the medicine dispensing instruction to the sub-control unit 5 in the storage area 21 where the drug to be dispensed is located. The sub-control unit 5 controls the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22 in the storage area 21 to work according to the medicine dispensing instruction. When the weight of the medicine dispensed by all the automatic medicine dispensing mechanisms 22 for a single medicine dispensing is the same as the single-dose drug dispensing weight on the prescription, an optimal medicine picking path is created.

[0095] ④ Dispense the medicine discharged by the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22 in sequence according to the optimal medicine picking path until the weighing weight of the weighing unit 4 on the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22 corresponding to the two-dimensional coordinates returns to 0 again.

[0096] ⑤ After picking up the medicine in sequence according to the optimal medicine picking path, a traditional Chinese medicine preparation is formed, and at this time, the counting module counts once. At this time, the weighing weights of all the weighing units 4 on the automatic medicine dispensing mechanisms 22 for a single medicine dispensing all return to 0 again.

[0097] ⑥ Repeat the above steps ③ to ⑤ until the counting times of the counting module are the same as the total number of medicine dispensings, and all the weighing units 4 on the automatic medicine dispensing mechanisms 22 corresponding to the two-dimensional coordinate values of the medicine dispensing instruction return to 0 again, then the automatic medicine dispensing for this prescription is completed.

[0098] The intelligent traditional Chinese medicine quantitative medicine dispensing system provided in this embodiment completes the automatic medicine dispensing work for the prescription, thereby completing the medicine dispensing work for a single preparation, without the need for manual medicine grabbing and weighing according to the medicine list, improving the medicine picking efficiency, accuracy, and operation convenience.

[0099] Therefore, as Figure 2 shown, the present invention also provides a medicine dispensing method for an intelligent traditional Chinese medicine quantitative medicine dispensing system, including the following steps:

[0100] Step 100: Arrange the prescriptions in the first-in, first-out order, identify the prescriptions in sequence, and extract prescription information, including the name of each drug, the weight of the drug for a single dispensing, and the total number of dispensing times.

[0101] Step 200: Construct a two-dimensional coordinate system for the automated medicine dispensing cabinet to determine the two-dimensional coordinate values corresponding to each medicine storage area, and form a mapping relationship between the drug name and the two-dimensional coordinate values.

[0102] Step 300: Generate a dispensing instruction based on the extracted prescription information. The dispensing instruction includes the name of each drug, the two-dimensional coordinate value, and the weight of the drug for a single dispensing of each drug.

[0103] Step 400: Determine the medicine storage area that matches the dispensing instruction and the two-dimensional coordinate value, and drive the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism in the matching medicine storage area to perform the medicine dispensing action according to the weight of the drug for a single dispensing of each drug.

[0104] Step 500: The two-dimensional coordinate values in the dispensing instruction form picking points, and an optimal picking path is formed based on the picking points. The moving position of the picking unit is monitored in real time. When the moving position of the picking unit coincides with the picking point of the optimal picking path, the automatic medicine dispensing mechanism is regulated to perform the medicine dispensing action.

[0105] Step 600: When the optimal picking path is completed, repeat steps 300 - 500 until the number of generated dispensing instructions is the same as the total number of dispensing times. After step 500 is completed, the automatic dispensing work of the prescription is completed.

[0106] In addition, the present invention also provides an automated medicine dispensing cabinet for an intelligent traditional Chinese medicine quantitative dispensing system, as Figures 3 to 5 shown, which includes a plurality of medicine storage areas 21 for independently storing drugs, and an automatic medicine dispensing mechanism 22 provided in each medicine storage area 21. A medicine receiving area is provided at the exit of each medicine storage area 21, and all the medicine storage areas 21 are distributed in a determinant order.

[0107] A detachable medicine storage barrel 6 is provided in each medicine storage area 21, and a picking box 7 that can be automatically weighed and is located directly below the medicine storage barrel 6 is provided at the bottom of each medicine storage area 21.

[0108] A medicine outlet 8 is provided on the lower end surface of the medicine storage barrel 6, a seal cover 9 is provided on the medicine outlet 8, and the seal cover 9 is connected to the picking box 7 through a connecting rod 10.

[0109] A linear drive assembly 11 for pushing the picking box 7 to linearly move along the opening direction of the medicine storage area 21 is provided at the bottom of the medicine storage area 21. When the linear drive assembly 11 pushes the picking box 7 to reciprocate, it synchronously pushes the seal cover 9 to reciprocate along the medicine outlet 8 to realize the medicine dropping and sealing work of the medicine storage barrel 6.

[0110] In this embodiment, the medicine storage area 21 facing the medical staff is designed with an opening and can be installed with a door body. When the amount of traditional Chinese medicine in the medicine storage barrel 6 is relatively small, the medicine storage barrel 6 can be disassembled to replenish the medicine when the door body is opened.

[0111] When performing the medicine dispensing operation, the linear drive assembly 11 pushes the medicine picking box 7 to move. The medicine picking box 7 drives the cover 9 to move synchronously through the connecting rod 10, so that the medicine outlet 8 is opened, thereby realizing the medicine dispensing operation. Since the weighing unit 4 is installed on the medicine picking box 7, when the weighing unit 4 measures that the amount of traditional Chinese medicine dispensed is the same as the single-dose dispensing amount of the medicine, the linear drive assembly 11 pushes the medicine picking box 7 to move in the reverse direction. The medicine picking box 7 drives the cover 9 to move in the reverse direction synchronously through the connecting rod 10 to close the medicine outlet 8.

[0112] It should be noted that when the traditional Chinese medicine is in the form of tablets or granules, such as salvia miltiorrhiza, ophiopogon japonicus, atractylodes macrocephala, etc., the medicine dispensing operation can be realized by opening the medicine outlet 8. For herbs, such as motherwort, viola philippica, plantago asiatica, etc., when the medicine outlet 8 is opened, the herbs are not easy to fall, as Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown. Therefore, an auxiliary medicine pushing assembly 12 needs to be added to force the medicine in the medicine storage barrel 6 to be dispensed.

[0113] A medicine pushing assembly 12 for forcing the medicine in the medicine storage barrel 6 to be dispensed is provided on the upper end surface of the cover 9 and is inside the medicine storage barrel 6. When the linear drive assembly 11 pushes the medicine picking box 7 to move back and forth and synchronously pushes the cover 9 to move back and forth along the medicine outlet 8, the cover 9 drives the medicine pushing assembly 12 to stir the medicine in the medicine storage barrel 6.

[0114] The medicine pushing assembly 12 includes a passive gear 121 installed at the position of the medicine outlet 8. The center position of the passive gear 121 is installed on the inner wall of the medicine storage barrel 6 through a rotating rod. A linear rack 122 is provided on the upper surface of the cover 9. When the cover 9 moves linearly, the passive gear 121 is driven to rotate through rack engagement.

[0115] A driving rod 123 is installed at the edge position of the opposite surface of the passive gear 121. When the passive gear 121 rotates, it drives the driving rod 123 to rotate synchronously, so that the traditional Chinese medicine in the medicine storage barrel 6 is dispensed from the medicine outlet 8.

[0116] When the linear drive assembly 11 drives the cover 9 to seal the medicine outlet 8 of the medicine storage barrel 6, as the cover 9 moves linearly, it drives the passive gear 121 to rotate through rack engagement, forcing the drive rod 123 to rotate upward. When the linear drive assembly 11 drives the cover 9 to open the medicine outlet 8 of the medicine storage barrel 6, as the cover 9 moves linearly, it drives the passive gear 121 to rotate through rack engagement, forcing the drive rod 123 to rotate downward, driving the herbs in the medicine storage barrel 6 to fall from the medicine outlet 8 and into the medicine picking box 7. The medicine picking box 7 weighs the herbs inside it. When the weighed weight is the same as the single-dose weight of the medicine in the prescription, the linear drive assembly 11 drives the cover 9 to seal the medicine outlet 8 of the medicine storage barrel 6.

[0117] Further, in order to improve the stability of the linear movement of the cover 9, limiting plates 13 are provided on both sides of the medicine outlet 8 on the lower end surface of the medicine storage barrel 6. The cover 9 is installed inside the limiting plates 13 and can move linearly inside the limiting plates 13.

[0118] The cover 9 and the medicine picking box 7 are connected by a connecting rod 10. In order to improve the stability of the linear movement of the cover 9, it is also necessary to further improve the stability of the linear movement of the medicine picking box 7. Both ends of the connecting rod 10 are movably installed on both side surfaces of one end of the cover 9 and on the side walls of the medicine picking box 7, and both ends of the connecting rod 10 can rotate movably.

[0119] As Figure 4 and Figure 7 shown, sunken grooves 14 are provided on the outer surfaces of both side walls of the medicine picking box 7, and limiting rods 15 are provided on the inner surfaces of both side walls of the medicine storage area 21. The linear drive assembly 11 pushes the medicine picking box 7 to move back and forth through the limiting action of the sunken grooves 14 and the limiting rods 15.

[0120] Further, when the weight of the medicine in the medicine picking box 7 is the same as the single-dose weight of the medicine in the prescription, it is necessary to transfer the medicine in the medicine picking box 7 to the medicine taking structure, such as the medicine taking box of medical staff. The specific implementation method for transferring the medicine in the medicine picking box 7 is as follows:

[0121] An inclined pushing assembly 19 is provided on the lower end surface of the medicine picking box 7. The inclined pushing assembly 19 is used to push the whole medicine picking box 7 to rotate around the limiting rod 15 to transfer the traditional Chinese medicine in the medicine picking box 7.

[0122] The linear drive assembly 11 is movably connected to the medicine picking box 7. When the inclined pushing assembly 19 pushes the whole medicine picking box 7 to rotate around the limiting rod 15 to an inclined state, the linear drive assembly 11 is separated from the medicine picking box 7.

[0123] When the inclined pushing assembly 19 pushes the whole medicine picking box 7 to rotate around the limiting rod 15 to a horizontal state, the linear drive assembly 11 is exactly fixed to the medicine picking box 7.

[0124] An elastic safety plug is provided on the drive shaft of the linear drive assembly 11, and a safety socket is installed on the lower end face of the medicine picking box 7. When the tilting push assembly 19 pushes the medicine picking box 7 as a whole to rotate around the limiting rod 15 to an inclined state, the medicine picking box 7 is separated from the elastic safety plug on the drive shaft of the linear drive assembly 11. When the tilting push assembly 19 pushes the medicine picking box 7 as a whole to rotate around the limiting rod 15 to a horizontal state, the elastic safety plug of the linear drive assembly 11 just inserts into the safety socket on the lower end face of the medicine picking box 7, and the linear drive assembly 11 can drive the medicine picking box 7 to move linearly.

[0125] Further, when the medicine picking box 7 weighs the herbs inside it and the medical staff presses the confirm medicine dispensing button 5, the door panel of the medicine storage area 21 needs to be opened.

[0126] Among them, as Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, the medicine storage area 21 is an open structure, and a switch door 16 is installed on one side of the opening of the medicine storage area 21. The switch door 16 is arranged at the upper end of the opening of the medicine storage area 21. A movable panel 17 is installed at the lower end of the switch door 16, and a telescopic cylinder 18 capable of driving the movable panel 17 to move up and down is installed on the switch door 16;

[0127] When the weighed medicine weights on all the medicine picking boxes 7 are the same as their corresponding single-dose medicine dosages, the telescopic cylinder 18 is controlled to pull up to open the movable panels 17 corresponding to all the medicine storage areas 21 for single-dose dispensing work;

[0128] When the weighed medicine weight on the medicine picking box 7 is zero, the telescopic cylinder 18 is controlled to push down to close the movable panel 17.

[0129] When the sub-control unit 5 of the medicine storage area 21 to be dispensed receives a dispensing instruction and when the weighed weight of the weighing unit of the medicine picking box 7 is the same as the single-dose medicine dosage in the prescription, the telescopic cylinders 18 of all the medicine storage areas 21 to be dispensed are pulled up to open the movable panels 17, track the moving position according to the optimal medicine picking path. When picking medicine to the current position according to the optimal medicine picking path, the tilting push assembly 19 pushes the medicine picking box 7 to rotate around the limiting rod 15 to an inclined state to transfer the output medicine.

[0130] When the weighed medicine weight on the medicine picking box 7 is zero, the telescopic cylinder 18 is controlled to push down to close the movable panel 17, and the tilting push assembly 19 is controlled to pull the medicine picking box 7 to rotate reversely around the limiting rod 15 to a horizontal state. When the weighed weights of the weighing units of all the medicine storage areas 21 to be dispensed are all 0, the dispensing instruction is repeatedly sent to further perform the next medicine dispensing work until the total number of medicine dispensing times in each medicine storage area 21 is the same as the dispensing times in the prescription.

[0131] The intelligent traditional Chinese medicine quantitative dispensing system provided by this embodiment completes the multiple automatic drug dispensing work for the prescription, thereby completing the single-dose dispensing work and the orderly progress of two adjacent dispensing operations, avoiding the problem of drug duplication in two adjacent dispensing operations, and improving the safety and orderliness of the entire automated dispensing.

[0132] When the linear drive assembly 11 drives the cover 9 to seal the drug outlet 8 of the medicine storage barrel 6, as the cover 9 moves linearly, it drives the passive gear 121 to rotate through rack engagement, and the actuating rod 123 rotates upward. When the linear drive assembly 11 drives the cover 9 to open the drug outlet 8 of the medicine storage barrel 6, as the cover 9 moves linearly, it drives the passive gear 121 to rotate through rack engagement, and the actuating rod 123 rotates downward, driving the herbs in the medicine storage barrel 6 to fall from the drug outlet 8 and into the medicine picking box 7. The medicine picking box 7 weighs the herbs inside it. When the weighed weight is the same as the single-dose weight of the drug in the prescription, the linear drive assembly 11 drives the cover 9 to seal the drug outlet 8 of the medicine storage barrel 6.

[0133] Further, in order to improve the stability of the linear movement of the cover 9, limiting plates 13 are provided on both sides of the drug outlet 8 on the lower end surface of the medicine storage barrel 6. The cover 9 is installed inside the limiting plates 13 and can linearly move inside the limiting plates 13.

[0134] The cover 9 and the medicine picking box 7 are connected by a connecting rod 10. In order to improve the stability of the linear movement of the cover 9, it is also necessary to further improve the stability of the linear movement of the medicine picking box 7. Both ends of the connecting rod 10 are movably installed on both side surfaces at one end of the cover 9 and on both side walls of the medicine picking box 7, and both ends of the connecting rod 10 can rotate movably.
