[0002] With the acceleration of the process of medical informatization and intelligence, traditional Chinese medicine hospitals are facing new challenges in improving the medical experience of patients and the operation efficiency of hospitals. The traditional mode of traditional Chinese medicine decocting and dispensing has the following problems: 1. High labor cost: The distribution of drugs depends on manual operation, with low efficiency and easy errors. 2. Drug storage risk: Decocted traditional Chinese medicine has strict requirements for storage conditions, and it is difficult to ensure the quality of drugs in the traditional way. 3. Limited service efficiency: Patients need to pick up drugs at fixed times, which is prone to congestion and inconvenience. 4. Insufficient service time: Traditional pharmacies cannot meet the needs of patients to pick up drugs at any time of 24 hours. There are already some intelligent drug access devices on the market, such as ordinary automatic drug dispensers and hospital prescription drug self-service dispensers. However, these devices are mainly designed for western medicines or ordinary Chinese patent medicines and cannot meet the special needs of traditional Chinese medicine decocting, especially there are obvious deficiencies in aspects such as constant-temperature storage, large-capacity storage, and full-process information management. For example, an integrated drug storage and dispensing cabinet with the publication number of CN214594994U and a medical cabinet with a remote alarm function with the publication number of CN106419178A both disclose the technical features of storing drugs and temperature monitoring, and can remotely alarm the storage temperature of drugs.

[0003] However, in the actual operation process of the existing intelligent drug dispensers, due to the confrontation between the internal storage temperature and the external environment temperature, as well as factors such as frequent opening and closing of the cabinet door and the failure of the temperature control device, the storage environment will have temperature fluctuations, and temperature fluctuations are an important factor leading to the deterioration of the liquid medicine. The existing technology lacks an effective monitoring and warning mechanism for the deterioration of the liquid medicine, especially a friendly interaction method for special groups such as the elderly.

[0016] Usage method of the intelligent constant temperature traditional Chinese medicine decocting and dispensing cabinet: S1. Medicine into the cabinet: After the patient pays the fee, the patient service system generates a medicine collection voucher with a QR code. After the pharmacy completes the decocting, the staff scans the medicine barcode with a handheld device. The core management system allocates storage compartments and guides the placement of the medicine. The intelligent medicine dispensing unit records the medicine into the cabinet time, temperature requirements and storage location; S2. Patient picks up medicine: The patient scans the code to pick up medicine through a touch screen or a mobile APP. After picking up the medicine, the intelligent medicine dispensing unit records the medicine pick-up completion time. If the medicine is not picked up within the specified time, the patient service system reminds through an APP mini-program or text message; S3. Temperature control and monitoring: The intelligent medicine dispensing unit sets the storage temperature according to the medicine characteristics. The temperature sensor monitors the temperature inside the cabinet grid in real time, and automatically adjusts the dual-mode temperature control device to refrigerate or heat.

Specific implementation mode

[0020] The following will describe the three implementation modes of this application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] The first implementation mode: It includes a simple house structure, an intelligent medicine dispensing unit, a core management system, a hospital information docking system for data exchange with the hospital HIS system and the pharmacy management system, a patient service system supporting 24-hour self-service medicine dispensing, and a data analysis system. The intelligent medicine dispensing unit is installed inside the simple house structure, and the simple house structure is equipped with a constant temperature control device. The intelligent medicine dispensing unit is communicatively connected to the core management system, the hospital information docking system, the patient service system, and the data analysis system; The simple house structure has three specifications: indoor standard type, indoor high-transparency type, and outdoor standard type. The outdoor standard type is equipped with a double-layer heat insulation wall and an all-weather constant temperature air conditioner, which is suitable for different scenario requirements. The simple house structure provides a constant temperature environment for the intelligent medicine dispensing cabinet, ensuring that the medicines are stored at the optimal temperature, and at the same time providing stable environmental conditions for the operation of the equipment; The core management system is used for medicine in-and-out cabinet management, temperature monitoring management, and equipment status monitoring. It is the control center of the entire system. It runs through an embedded server to achieve comprehensive control and management of the intelligent medicine dispensing system, supports batch medicine loading and dispensing record tracking, which is convenient for management and traceability. The hospital information docking system is responsible for docking with the hospital HIS system and the pharmacy management system to achieve functions such as prescription information synchronization and medicine status tracking. Through a standardized interface, it ensures that the system can be seamlessly integrated into the hospital's existing information architecture. The data analysis system is used for medicine usage analysis, behavior analysis of patients' medicine dispensing preferences, habits, etc., and equipment efficiency analysis, providing data support for hospital management decisions; Such as Figure 1 、 2As shown in the figure, the intelligent medicine dispensing unit includes a medicine storage cabinet body 1, a main control cabinet installed inside the medicine storage cabinet body 1 and equipped with an embedded server, a touch screen body 2 installed on the shell of the medicine storage cabinet body 1 and connected to the main control cabinet, a two-dimensional code scanning device installed on the touch screen body 2, a plurality of cabinet compartments 3 of three specifications (large, medium, and small) installed on the medicine storage cabinet body 1, an intelligent electronic lock device installed on the cabinet door of the cabinet compartment 3, a temperature sensor installed inside the cabinet compartment 3, a dual-mode temperature control device supporting two storage modes of refrigeration and normal temperature, and an alarm device installed inside the cabinet compartment 3. A temperature viewing curtain 4 that can be telescopically folded up and down is slidably connected to the cabinet door of the cabinet compartment 3. During operation, the decocted traditional Chinese medicine is stored in the cabinet compartment 3 with a specification adapted to its quantity. The temperature viewing curtain 4 plays a role in isolating the inside of the cabinet compartment 3 from the outside, thereby effectively reducing the confrontation between the temperature inside the cabinet compartment 3 and the external environment temperature, and thus effectively improving the constant temperature and heat preservation effect; As Figure 3 shown, the patient service system includes an APP applet signal-connected to the embedded server, a wireless communication device installed inside the cabinet compartment 3 and signal-connected to the temperature sensor, and an NFC temperature label signal-connected to the wireless communication device and pasted on the decocted medicine bag. The display content of the NFC temperature label is a two-dimensional coordinate system with a time axis and a temperature axis. The X-axis represents the storage time of the decocted medicine, and the Y-axis represents the storage temperature of the decocted medicine. Each medicine bag of the decocted medicine is pasted with an NFC temperature label. During the storage process, the temperature sensor transmits the monitored temperature to the NFC temperature label through the wireless communication device in real time. After the patient picks up the medicine, on the one hand, it can be viewed through the APP applet on the smart phone, such as Figure 3As shown, on the other hand, it can also be viewed by scanning the NFC temperature label with a mobile phone. By checking the temperature fluctuations during the storage of the decocted herbs prepared by the pharmacy, and combining with visually inspecting the color and state of the liquid medicine, the patient can comprehensively judge whether the decocted herbs prepared by the pharmacy have deteriorated. The purpose of this is that most people, especially the young and the elderly, do not have the experience and professional knowledge to distinguish whether the liquid medicine has deteriorated. Generally speaking, the manifestations of deteriorated liquid medicine are darker color, swollen bags, suspended substances or precipitates in the liquid medicine. However, sometimes the presence of precipitates in the liquid medicine is also normal. At this time, it is difficult for most people to judge. In this embodiment, by sending the specific temperature fluctuations during the storage of the liquid medicine to the patient, and letting the patient comprehensively evaluate the deterioration of the liquid medicine by combining the temperature fluctuations and the changes in the liquid medicine seen with the naked eye. If the temperature fluctuation range is small and the frequency is low, and there are a small number of precipitates in the liquid medicine, it indicates that the precipitates in the liquid medicine are normal precipitation phenomena and can be taken normally. If the temperature fluctuation range is large and the frequency is high, and the liquid medicine has obvious manifestations such as color change, precipitates or suspended substances, it means that the liquid medicine has deteriorated. However, there are also cases where there are a small number of precipitates and suspended substances in the liquid medicine, and the color change is not obvious. At this time, it indicates that there is a high possibility that the liquid medicine has deteriorated, or the liquid medicine has just started to deteriorate. At this time, the patient can combine the temperature fluctuations and the specific changes in the liquid medicine to judge whether to choose to take it. If there are doubts, the patient can take the decocted herbs prepared by the pharmacy to consult professional medical staff, which can effectively reduce the risk of the patient taking deteriorated liquid medicine; Compared with the prior art, this embodiment breaks through the barrier of only sending the monitored temperature of the decocted herbs prepared by the pharmacy to the background management system in the prior art. By using a mini-program and an NFC temperature label, the temperature fluctuations of the decocted herbs prepared by the pharmacy are sent to the patient, allowing the patient to comprehensively judge whether the liquid medicine has deteriorated by combining the temperature fluctuations and the specific changes in the liquid medicine. On the one hand, it can exclude the false deterioration manifestations caused by the normal precipitation phenomenon of the liquid medicine, effectively avoiding the waste of the liquid medicine being thrown away. On the other hand, it can prevent inexperienced patients from directly taking deteriorated liquid medicine, which may lead to a decrease in the medicinal effect and harm to the body. The temperature fluctuations and visual inspection can form a mutual verification mechanism to help the patient accurately master the storage status of the decocted herbs prepared by the pharmacy, effectively solving the problem that the prior art cannot well monitor the deterioration of the liquid medicine.

[0022] The second embodiment: Based on the first embodiment, this embodiment further improves the viewing method of the temperature fluctuations of the decocted herbs prepared by the pharmacy, which is mainly designed for the elderly, while other parts are the same as the first embodiment; Such as Figure 4 、 5As shown in the figure, the temperature observation curtain 4 includes a plurality of isochronous color display strips 5 connected at intervals and elastic connection strips 6. Both the isochronous color display strips 5 and the elastic connection strips 6 are made of heat-insulating materials. The isochronous color display strips 5 and the elastic connection strips 6 serve as a barrier for isolating the interior of the cabinet grid 3 from the external environment, which can effectively reduce the temperature confrontation between the interior and the external environment of the cabinet grid 3, effectively improve the constant temperature and heat preservation effect, and can also effectively avoid the loss of cold air when opening and closing the cabinet door; As Figure 6 , 7 , 8 shows that one end of each isochronous color display strip 5 is fixedly connected with an electronic temperature display meter 7, and the electronic temperature display meter 7 is signal-connected to the temperature sensor. A plurality of temperature display bubbles 8 evenly distributed at equal intervals on the same straight line are fixedly inlaid inside the isochronous color display strip 5, and the temperature display bubbles 8 are made of electrochromic materials. The temperature sensor is signal-connected to a controller, and the controller is signal-connected to each temperature display bubble 8. The plurality of temperature display bubbles 8 on the same isochronous color display strip 5 are isochronously distributed according to the 24-hour system of a day. As Figure 8 shown, and the time span between two adjacent temperature display bubbles 8 is three hours. The display colors of multiple groups of temperature display bubbles 8 divided according to the 24-hour system of a day are different from each other; During specific operation, the temperature sensor continuously monitors the storage temperature of the decocted medicine. As Figure 6 , and displays the highest and lowest temperatures monitored within every three hours by triggering the temperature display bubbles 8, so that the temperature fluctuation of the liquid medicine within a fixed time period can be displayed. Within each three-hour time period, there are temperature display bubbles 8 representing different temperatures. By making the temperature display bubbles 8 corresponding to the temperature energized and discolored, the marking effect can be achieved. As Figure 7As shown, if two temperature-displaying bubbles 8 are energized and change color within the same time period, it indicates that the liquid medicine has experienced temperature fluctuations during this time period. If only one temperature-displaying bubble 8 is energized and changes color within the same time period, it indicates that the liquid medicine has maintained a constant temperature during this time period. Looking at all the temperature-displaying bubbles 8 on all the isochronous color-displaying strips 5, if the number of temperature-displaying bubbles 8 that change color is more in consecutive time periods and two temperature-displaying bubbles 8 change color in each time period, it indicates that the temperature fluctuation frequency of the decocted medicine is higher and the risk of the liquid medicine deteriorating is high. If the number of temperature-displaying bubbles 8 that continuously change color is more at the same temperature and only one temperature-displaying bubble 8 changes color in consecutive time periods, it indicates that the decocted medicine has been stored at a constant temperature for a longer time at this temperature and the risk of the liquid medicine deteriorating is low. Based on this, the patient can comprehensively judge whether the liquid medicine has deteriorated by combining the color and state of the liquid medicine seen with the naked eye. In addition, in addition to checking the temperature fluctuations through the distribution of the temperature-displaying bubbles 8, as time passes, the colors of the temperature-displaying bubbles 8 that change color are also different between different days. For example, the temperature-displaying bubbles 8 on the first day are green, the temperature-displaying bubbles 8 on the second day are orange, and the temperature-displaying bubbles 8 on the third day are red. This can serve as a reminder to check and also further intuitively shows that as the storage time of the decocted medicine increases, the possibility of its deterioration is greater and caution is required when taking it; The temperature span range between two adjacent electronic temperature-displaying meters 7 is 1 - 2 °C, and the temperature span range of all the electronic temperature-displaying meters 7 is adjusted by the controller. The temperature on each electronic temperature-displaying meter 7 can be adjusted by the controller. For example, if the storage temperature requirement of the liquid medicine is 2 - 8 °C, then the temperature span of all the electronic temperature-displaying meters 7 can be adjusted to -2 - 12 °C. If the storage temperature requirement of the liquid medicine is 15 - 25 °C, then the temperature span of all the electronic temperature-displaying meters 7 can be adjusted to 10 - 30 °C. The specific adjustment range can be determined by the controller according to actual needs, such as Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, taking the span of -2 - 12 °C as an example, in addition, the temperature span between two adjacent electronic temperature-displaying meters 7 can be 1 °C, can be 2 °C, can also be larger or smaller, and is specifically set according to the storage temperature requirement of the medicine. In this embodiment, in order to achieve precise monitoring of the decocted medicine, the temperature span between two adjacent electronic temperature-displaying meters 7 is set to 2 °C; The patient service system further includes a reminder unit, and the reminder unit sends reminder messages to the patients and their families through the APP mini-program and text messages. Considering that the elderly are not proficient in operating smartphones, and some even use senior mobile phones. When the elderly forget to pick up the medicine within the specified time due to poor memory, the reminder unit sends reminder messages to their children through the APP mini-program and text messages, and can also send the temperature fluctuation of the decocted medicine to their children, enabling the children to play a role in supervising and reminding the elderly. In addition, considering the thrifty nature of the elderly, even if the obtained liquid medicine has slightly deteriorated, the elderly may be reluctant to throw it away. By sending reminder messages to their children, the use of medicine by the elderly can be supervised, and the consumption of deteriorated liquid medicine can be avoided.

[0023] In this embodiment, when picking up the medicine, the elderly can comprehensively judge whether the decocted medicine has deteriorated by checking the color change of the temperature display bubbles 8 on the isochronous color display strip 5 and combining the specific changes in the liquid medicine in their hands. By sending reminder messages to their children to supervise the use of medicine by the elderly and avoid taking deteriorated liquid medicine. Compared with the prior art, this embodiment takes into account the fact that the elderly are not proficient in operating smartphones, some even use senior mobile phones, and the elderly are thrifty and reluctant to throw away slightly deteriorated liquid medicine. Through an intuitive temperature fluctuation display method and the method of sending reminder messages to their children, a double-insurance reminder is provided for the elderly, effectively improving the medication safety of the elderly.

[0024] The third embodiment: Based on the first and second embodiments, this embodiment monitors the storage temperature of the decocted medicine in more detail, aiming to let the patient know the storage temperature of each medicine bag, and the other parts of this embodiment are the same as those of the first and second embodiments; Such as Figure 9 、 10As shown in the figure, the isochronous color display strip 5 is made of a transparent material. A heat insulation pad 9 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the isochronous color display strip 5 facing the inside of the cabinet compartment 3. A plurality of semiconductor temperature sensors 11 are evenly distributed on the side wall of the heat insulation pad 9. A plurality of color-changing plates 10 respectively connected to the plurality of semiconductor temperature sensors 11 in signal are fixedly embedded in the inner wall of the heat insulation pad 9. The color-changing plates 10 also adopt electrochromic materials, and the display colors of the plurality of color-changing plates 10 are different from each other. During the storage of the decocted traditional Chinese medicine, since pharmacies prescribe medicine to patients according to the treatment course, the decocted traditional Chinese medicine used in one treatment course is not likely to be only one bag, but multiple bags. Then, when storing multiple bags of decocted traditional Chinese medicine, they will be stacked together. The medicine bag on the outermost side contacts with the inside of the cabinet compartment 3, and its storage temperature is relatively stable. However, the medicine bags inside are blocked by the outer medicine bags. During the process of constant temperature regulation, the lag is relatively large, which is bound to cause the duration of temperature fluctuation to be relatively long and the risk of deterioration to be relatively high. Relying solely on the method of monitoring and feedback of the entire storage temperature in the second embodiment is not precise enough. Therefore, in this embodiment, a plurality of semiconductor temperature sensors 11 are arranged on the back of each isochronous color display strip 5. The semiconductor temperature sensors 11 can monitor the temperature of each medicine bag corresponding to them. The semiconductor temperature sensors 11 visually express the monitored temperature by making the color-changing plates 10 display colors. Dark colors are used to represent high temperatures, and light colors are used to represent low temperatures. In this way, when patients view the temperature display bubbles 8, they can also know the temperature conditions of each layer of medicine bags by viewing the color changes of the color-changing plates 10. Compared with the prior art, this embodiment enables patients to more accurately master the storage conditions of each bag of liquid medicine, facilitating the accurate selection of medicine bags with abnormal temperatures and effectively avoiding the misjudgment of the deterioration of the decocted traditional Chinese medicine for the entire treatment course; Usage method of the intelligent constant temperature traditional Chinese medicine decocting and dispensing cabinet: S1. Medicine into the cabinet: After the patient pays the fee, the patient service system generates a medicine collection voucher with a QR code. After the pharmacy completes the decocting, the staff scans the medicine barcode with a handheld device. The core management system allocates storage compartments and guides the placement of the medicine. The intelligent medicine dispensing unit records the medicine entry time, temperature requirements, and storage location; S2. Patient picks up medicine: The patient scans the code to pick up medicine through the touch screen or the mobile APP. After picking up the medicine, the intelligent medicine dispensing unit records the medicine pick-up completion time. If the medicine is not picked up within the specified time, the patient service system will remind the patient through the APP mini-program or text message; S3. Temperature control and monitoring: The intelligent medicine dispensing unit sets the storage temperature according to the characteristics of the medicine. The temperature sensor monitors the temperature inside the cabinet compartment 3 in real time, automatically adjusts the dual-mode temperature control device for refrigeration or heating. When the temperature is abnormal, the alarm device alarms and notifies the administrator. The patient service system records the all-day temperature change curve and sends it to the NFC temperature label of the decocted traditional Chinese medicine bag through wireless communication for the patient to view; S4. Services for elderly patients: When elderly patients pick up their medicine, considering that they may not be proficient in operating smartphones or even use feature phones and thus cannot know the temperature changes of the decocted medicine stored, the temperature observation curtain 4 is used to visually display the temperature changes to the elderly. When the cabinet door of the cabinet grid 3 is opened, it can be directly seen. First, the intelligent medicine pickup unit makes all the electronic temperature display meters 7 display the temperature according to the storage temperature requirements of the decocted medicine. Then, the temperature sensor monitors the temperature of the decocted medicine in real time, and displays the highest and lowest temperatures monitored within every three hours by triggering the temperature display bubbles 8. In this way, the temperature change trend of the decocted medicine during the entire storage process can be displayed on the temperature observation curtain 4. Combining with the medicine pickup time node, the quality of the decocted medicine can be comprehensively judged by visually checking after getting the medicine. If there are any doubts, medical staff can be asked for help to avoid potential safety hazards caused by direct consumption.

[0025] Combined with the current actual requirements, the above implementation manner adopted in this application does not limit the protection scope thereto. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes made without departing from the concept of this application still fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

10. A method for using an intelligent constant-temperature traditional Chinese medicine decocting and dispensing cabinet, characterized in that: Use method of the intelligent constant temperature traditional Chinese medicine decocting and dispensing cabinet according to any one of claims 1-9: S1. Medicine into the cabinet: After the patient pays the fee, the patient service system generates a medicine collection voucher with a QR code. After the pharmacy finishes decocting, the staff scans the medicine barcode with a handheld device. The core management system allocates storage compartments and guides the placement of the medicine. The intelligent medicine dispensing unit records the medicine entry time, temperature requirements, and storage location. S2. Patient picks up medicine: The patient scans the code to pick up medicine through a touch screen or mobile APP. After picking up the medicine, the intelligent medicine dispensing unit records the medicine pick-up completion time. If the medicine is not picked up within the specified time, the patient service system reminds through the APP mini-program or text message. S3. Temperature control and monitoring: The intelligent medicine dispensing unit sets the storage temperature according to the characteristics of the medicine. The temperature sensor monitors the temperature inside the cabinet compartment (3) in real time, and automatically adjusts the dual-mode temperature control device to refrigerate or heat. When the temperature is abnormal, the alarm device alarms and notifies the administrator. The patient service system records the all-day temperature change curve and sends it to the NFC temperature label of the decocted medicine bag through wireless communication for the patient to view. S4. Service for elderly patients: When elderly patients pick up medicine, considering that the elderly are not proficient in operating smart phones and even use old-fashioned mobile phones and are unable to know the temperature change of the decocted medicine in storage, the temperature viewing curtain (4) is used to visually display the temperature change to the elderly, which can be directly seen when the cabinet door of the cabinet compartment (3) is opened. First, the intelligent medicine dispensing unit makes all the electronic temperature display meters (7) display the temperature according to the storage temperature requirements of the decocted medicine. Then, the temperature sensor monitors the temperature of the decocted medicine in real time, and displays the highest and lowest temperatures monitored within every three hours by triggering the temperature display bubbles (8). In this way, the temperature change trend of the decocted medicine during the whole storage process can be displayed on the temperature viewing curtain (4). Combining with the medicine pick-up time node, the decocted medicine is comprehensively judged whether it has deteriorated by visually checking after getting the medicine. If there are doubts, help can be sought from medical staff to avoid potential safety hazards caused by direct ingestion.
