DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without violating the connotation of the present application, so the present application is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0021] The technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present application is described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0022] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the present application provides an automatic medicine dispensing mechanism for medicine bottles, including a medicine tray 1, a plurality of pop-up boxes 3 are fixedly installed inside the medicine tray 1, a plurality of partitions 2 for separating medicine boxes are installed on the top surface of the medicine tray 1, and the staff can install the partitions 2 at appropriate positions on the medicine tray 1 according to the width of the medicine boxes, and a medicine dispensing component 4 for dispensing medicine from the medicine boxes is arranged inside the pop-up box 3, and the material used for the entire medicine dispensing component is POM, which has high lubricity and strength, and the medicine dispensing component 4 includes a slider 6, a connecting rod 7, a lever 8 and an electromagnet 12, and a control component 5 for controlling the dispensing of medicine is arranged on the inner bottom surface of the pop-up box 3, and the control component 5 includes a reflective photoelectric 11 and a circuit board 19;

[0023] Furthermore, the slider 6 is slidably connected to the inside of the pop-up box 3, and the two sides of the slider 6 are rotatably connected with the lever 8. The pop-up box 3 is installed on the back of the medicine tray 1, and the lever 8 inside the pop-up box 3 will be exposed through the gap of the medicine tray 1. Support pins 20 are fixedly installed on both sides of the slider 6. The lever 8 is rotatably connected to the support pin 20. The lever 8 rotates around the support pin 20. The two sides of the slider 6 are rotatably connected with the connecting rod 7. The upper end of the connecting rod 7 is rotatably connected to the lever 8 through a cylindrical pin 9. The two sides of the slider 6 A connecting pin 21 is fixedly installed, and the lower end of the connecting rod 7 is rotatably connected to the connecting pin 21. The inside of the pop-up box 3 is movably connected with an electromagnet 12. Two buckles 10 are fixedly installed on the inner bottom surface of the medicine tray 1. The buckle 10 is movably connected with the electromagnet 12. The staff squeezes the buckle 10 with the electromagnet 12 to move the buckle 10 backward, thereby clamping the electromagnet 12 between the two buckles 10. The inside of the electromagnet 12 is slidably connected with an iron core 13, and the iron core 13 is elastically connected to the slider 6 through an elastic member;

[0024] The pop-up box 3 is provided, and when the medicine is discharged from the pop-up box 3, when the medicine box falls on the lever 8 along the medicine tray 1, the electromagnet 12 is started to drive the iron core 13 to move outward, and the iron core 13 moves outward to drive the slider 6 to slide outward inside the pop-up box 3, and the slider 6 slides to the right to drive the right end of the lever 8 to rotate around the support pin 20 at a fixed point, and the slider 6 moves outward and also causes the lower end of the connecting rod 7 to rotate to the left around the connecting pin 21 on the slider 6, and the lower end of the connecting rod 7 rotates to the left around the connecting pin 21 on the slider 6, which also causes the upper end of the connecting rod 7 to drive the lever 8 to rotate downward, without the blocking of the lever 8 on the medicine box, the medicine box will fall along the slope, so as to achieve the effect of discharging the medicine from the medicine box, thereby realizing the automatic discharging of the medicine from the medicine box, which is convenient for the staff to discharge the medicine from the medicine box;

[0025] Two limit plates 18 for supporting the sliding of the slider 6 are fixedly installed on the inner bottom surface of the medicine tray 1. The slider 6 is slidably connected to the limit plates 18. Through the setting of the slider 6, the slider 6 slides inside the medicine tray 1 and slides between the two limit plates 18. The limit plates 18 can limit the sliding of the slider 6 to achieve the movement effect of the slider 6.

[0026] In another embodiment, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, further, a circuit board 19 is fixedly installed on the inner bottom surface of the medicine tray 1, and a reflective photoelectric 11 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the circuit board 19. Through the arranged lever 8, when there is no medicine box on the lever 8, the lever 8 is in an initial state, and the initial state is "unobstructed", that is, there is no medicine box on the lever 8. When a medicine box passes through the lever 8, it is "obstructed". At this time, the circuit board 19 and the reflective photoelectric 11 will start the electromagnet 12, thereby controlling the discharge of medicines from the medicine box. The above is the correct action process. As long as the signal sensed by the reflective photoelectric 11 is not the above process, an error will be reported, and the discharge of medicines will be stopped, thereby achieving the control effect of the discharge of medicines from the medicine box.

[0027] The elastic member is a spring 14, one end of which is fixedly connected to one side of the electromagnet 12, and the other end of the spring 14 is fixedly connected to one side of the slider 6. The electromagnet 12 is provided, and the electromagnet 12 attracts the iron core 13 to drive the lever 8 to dispense medicine from the medicine box, which will cause the spring 14 to be compressed. Then, the electromagnet 12 is de-energized, and the force of the spring 14 causes the iron core 13 to drive the slider 6 and the lever 8 to reset, thereby achieving the reset effect of the lever 8.

[0028] A baffle 15 is fixedly installed on the inner bottom surface of the medicine tray 1, and a positioning pin 16 for determining the position of the pop-up box 3 is installed inside the baffle 15. A fixing block 22 is fixedly installed inside the medicine tray 1, and two fixing holes 17 are provided on one side of the fixing block 22. Through the setting of the fixing block 22, the staff puts the screws into the fixing holes 17 on the fixing block 22, thereby installing the pop-up box 3 on the medicine tray 1.

[0029] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: first, the staff installs the pop-up box 3 on the back of the medicine tray 1 so that the lever 8 is exposed, and then inserts the partition 2 at a suitable spacing according to the width of the medicine boxes, and places the medicine boxes in sequence;

[0030] Secondly, in the initial state, the lever 8 extends to block all the medicine boxes from falling. When receiving the medicine dispensing instruction, the electromagnet 12 is energized to pull the slider 6. Driven by the connecting rod 7, the lever 8 moves downward, and the medicine boxes slide down along the slope.

[0031] Finally, after the delay time set by the program (this time is less than the time it takes for the first box of medicine to slide down), the electromagnet 12 is de-energized, and the slider 6 moves in the opposite direction under the action of the spring 14. Driven by the connecting rod 7, the lever 8 moves upward and returns to the initial state, blocking the next box of medicine.

[0032] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0033] The above-described embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present application, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent application shall be subject to the attached claims.
