DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

[0026] Reference Figure 2The feeding mechanism 1 includes a feeding hopper 101, which is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom and has a flat outlet. The two sides of the feeding hopper 101 are fixedly connected with brackets 102, and the brackets 102 are installed above the brackets 102. The medicinal materials are placed inside the feeding hopper 101. The distance between the bottom of the feeding hopper 101 and the working table of the vibration plate 2 is small. After the vibration plate 2 vibrates, the medicinal materials inside the feeding hopper 101 will be driven to pass through the flat feeding hopper 101 outlet in sequence, so as to avoid the excessive number of medicinal materials affecting the implementation effect of the vibration plate 2. The vibration plate 2 is responsible for arranging some medicinal materials linearly in sequence, and slowly delivering the medicinal materials to the output port through vibration, so as to realize the feeding operation.

[0027] Reference Figure 2 The first feeding mechanism 3 includes a first conveyor belt 301, side plates 302 are installed on both sides of the first conveyor belt 301, photoelectric sensors 303 are installed on the inner side of the side plates 302, and a laser scanner 304 is installed on the top of the side plates 302. The laser scanner 304 and the photoelectric sensor 303 are electrically connected to the controller 8, and the first conveyor belt 301 is tilted. When the medicinal materials slowly enter the first conveyor belt 301 from the output port of the vibration plate 2, the medicinal materials begin to accelerate due to the tilt setting of the first conveyor belt 301 and the effect of its own transmission. After the photoelectric sensor 303 detects it, it will transmit the information to the controller 8. The controller 8 drives the laser scanner 304 to detect the actual size of the medicinal materials. After the laser scanner 304 completes the detection, it transmits the three-dimensional information to the controller 8, that is, the collection and communication of the medicinal material size information is completed.

[0028] Reference Figure 3 The material distribution mechanism 4 includes an inclined table 401, a vertical plate 402 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the inclined table 401, an electric telescopic rod 403 is installed on one side of the vertical plate 402, the output end of the electric telescopic rod 403 is rotatably connected to a hinge shaft 404, the upper end of the hinge shaft 404 is rotatably connected to a transmission plate 405, the upper surface of the transmission plate 405 away from the hinge shaft 404 is fixedly connected to a transmission shaft 406, and the upper end of the transmission shaft 406 passes through the desktop of the inclined table 401 and is fixedly connected to a material distribution channel 407. When the controller 8 receives the data detected by the laser scanner 304, it will adjust the extension state of the electric telescopic rod 403 according to the size of the data, the electric telescopic rod 403 pushes or pulls the hinge shaft 404, the hinge shaft 404 drives the transmission shaft 406, and the transmission shaft 406 drives the material distribution channel 407, so that the medicinal materials dropped from the first conveyor belt 301 enter different transportation channels according to their size and shape.

[0029] Reference Figure 4The second feeding mechanism 5 includes a second conveyor belt 501, and a plurality of isolation plates 502 are installed on both sides and the upper end of the second conveyor belt 501. A connecting rod 503 is fixedly connected between the isolation plates 502, and a carrying plate 504 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the isolation plate 502 near the material distribution channel 407. The medicinal materials enter the upper part of the second conveyor belt 501 through the material distribution mechanism 4. Since a plurality of isolation plates 502 are arranged on the second conveyor belt 501, the space between every two isolation plates 502 can be used as a transmission channel, so that the medicinal materials can be transported on their own transmission channels without interfering with each other.

[0030] Reference Figure 4 The receiving mechanism 6 includes a receiving box 601, a plurality of partitions 602 are installed inside the receiving box 601, a pressure sensor 603 is installed at the bottom between the partitions 602, an isolation guide channel 604 is installed at the upper end of the receiving box 601 close to the second feeding mechanism 5, and a storage mechanism 7 is slidably connected between the partitions 602. The storage mechanism 7 includes a box body 701, a buffer plate 702 is obliquely installed at the upper end of the box body 701 close to the second feeding mechanism 5, and a buffer block 703 is placed at the bottom of the box body 701 away from the second feeding mechanism 5. The medicinal materials enter the isolation guide channel 604 under the action of the second feeding mechanism 5, and then pass through the buffer plate 702 and hit the buffer block 703, thereby realizing the storage of the medicinal materials. When the storage is large, the pressure sensor 603 transmits a signal to the controller 8 to remind the user to clean the medicinal materials inside the storage mechanism 7, thereby realizing the classified storage of the medicinal materials.

[0031] Working principle: Place the medicinal materials inside the feeding hopper 101. The distance between the bottom of the feeding hopper 101 and the working table of the vibration disk 2 is small. After the vibration of the vibration disk 2, the medicinal materials inside the feeding hopper 101 will be driven to pass through the flat feeding hopper 101 outlet in turn, so as to avoid the excessive number of medicinal materials affecting the implementation effect of the vibration disk 2. The vibration disk 2 is responsible for arranging some medicinal materials linearly in sequence, and slowly delivers the medicinal materials to the output port through vibration, thus realizing the feeding operation. When the medicinal materials slowly enter the first conveyor belt 301 from the output port of the vibration disk 2, the medicinal materials begin to accelerate due to the inclined setting of the first conveyor belt 301 and its own transmission effect. After the photoelectric sensor 303 detects it, it will transmit the information to the controller 8. The controller 8 drives the laser scanner 304 to detect the actual size of the medicinal materials. After the laser scanner 304 completes the detection, it transmits the three-dimensional information to the controller 8, thus completing the collection and exchange of the medicinal materials size information;

[0032] When the controller 8 receives the data detected by the laser scanner 304, it will adjust the extension state of the electric telescopic rod 403 according to the size of the data. The electric telescopic rod 403 pushes or pulls the hinge shaft 404, and the hinge shaft 404 drives the transmission shaft 406, and the transmission shaft 406 drives the material distribution channel 407, so that the medicinal materials dropped from the first conveyor belt 301 enter different transportation channels according to their size and shape. The medicinal materials enter the second conveyor belt 501 above the material distribution mechanism 4. Since a plurality of isolation plates 502 are arranged on the second conveyor belt 501, each two isolation plates 502 can be used as a transmission channel, so that the medicinal materials can be transported on their own transmission channels without interfering with each other. The medicinal materials enter the isolation guide channel 604 under the action of the second feeding mechanism 5, and then pass through the buffer plate 702 and hit the buffer block 703, thereby realizing the storage of the medicinal materials. When the storage is large, the pressure sensor 603 transmits a signal to the controller 8 to remind the user to clean the medicinal materials inside the storage mechanism 7, thereby realizing the classified storage of the medicinal materials.

[0033] The above is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent substitutions or changes within the technical scope disclosed in the present application according to the technical solution and utility model concept of the present application, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present application.
