A movable drug storage mechanism can be set between the drug dispensing port and the packaging bag to form a temporary storage compartment, which avoids the movement of the packaging bag and improves the adaptability of the drug packaging machine.
[0028] 2. Because it is a right triangle, the downward movement of the installation platform only requires a certain distance, which is significantly less than the length of the left support bag lever. Therefore, it can quickly improve the efficiency of medicine bag support and further improve packaging efficiency.
[0029] 3. The drive motor drives the clamping timing belt, which in turn drives the first robotic arm to move the suction cup. The suction cup holds the side of the packaging bag to be opened, preventing the packaging bag from suddenly opening and breaking.
[0030] 4. The storage bag mechanism is simple. By setting a second drive motor and a suction cup, the second robotic arm can take the packaging bag out of the storage bag mechanism, ensuring the efficiency of packaging medicines.
[0031] 5. The packaging bag is moved from the first position to the second position using a moving mechanism, which improves the efficiency of dispensing medicine. Attached Figure Description

[0053] The principle of this invention is:
[0054] When the bag is picked up, the robotic arm base plate 195 moves to the first position, and the second drive motor 166 on the second robotic arm 16 on the robotic arm base plate 195 drives the second suction cup 160 to approach the packaging bag. After the suction cup 156 picks up the packaging bag, the second drive motor 161 drives the second suction cup 160 to leave the bag storage mechanism 11, and the bag picking action is completed.
[0055] When the suction cup 156 descends to the set position, the electric rotary table 161 drives the second suction cup 160 to rotate 90 degrees, turning the packaging bag from the horizontal to the vertical direction, thus completing the flipping action.
[0056] The first drive motor 159 drives the first robotic arm 15 to approach the packaging bag and uses the suction cup 156 to suck up the side of the packaging bag to be sucked. After sucking up the packaging bag, the first drive motor 159 drives the first robotic arm 15 to move away from the packaging bag until the two sides of the packaging bag are pulled open to the appropriate position, at which point the bag-opening action is completed.
[0057] After the bag-holding action is completed, the drive motor 191 drives the robotic arm base plate 195 to move to the second position, at which point the bag-transfer action is completed.
[0058] The electric push rod 121 pushes the paddle fixing bracket 122 down, and the left bag support paddle 124 and the right bag support paddle 125 enter the packaging bag, completing the bag insertion action.
[0059] Cylinder 126 opens the left support bag lever 124 and the right support bag lever 125, releasing the medicine from the medicine storage mechanism, and the medicine enters the packaging bag.
[0060] The robotic arm base plate 195 continues to move, and the packaging bag is sealed by the sealing mechanism 14.
