[0031] Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the present application embodiment provides a material distribution device 200, which includes a conveying module 20 and a material distribution module 21. The conveying module 20 is used to convey materials. The material distribution module 21 is connected between the conveying module 20 and at least two external devices, and the material distribution module 21 can be controlled to selectively disconnect the connection between the conveying module 20 and any external device, so as to selectively transport the material on the conveying module 20 to the external device connected to the conveying module 20.

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1 and 2. In the embodiment of the present application, the material dividing device 200 is used in the Chinese medicine pill making system 100. The material conveyed by the conveying module 20 corresponds to Chinese medicine pills. The material dividing module 21 is used to selectively convey the Chinese medicine pills on the conveying module 20 to an external device connected to the conveying module 20. It can be understood that the application field of the material dividing device 200 is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the conveying module 20 can also be used to convey other materials.

[0033] When the material dividing device 200 is used in the Chinese medicine pill making system 100, the Chinese medicine pill making system 100 includes a shaping tool 300, and the shaping tool 300 includes the material dividing device 200 in the above embodiment and at least two shaping devices 30. The shaping device 30 corresponds to the external device in the above embodiment, and the shaping device 30 is used to perform shaping operations on the Chinese medicine pills.

[0034] It is understandable that the specific number of shaping devices 30 is not limited. Please refer to Figures 1 and 2. The present application is written with four shaping devices 30 as the embodiment. The four shaping devices 30 can be selectively disconnected or connected to the conveying module 20 through the material dividing module 21.

[0035] Specifically, according to actual needs, the four shaping devices 30 can be connected to the conveying module 20 at the same time, or any three of the four shaping devices 30 are connected to the conveying module 20, and the other shaping device 30 is disconnected from the conveying module 20, or any two of the four shaping devices 30 are connected to the conveying module 20, and the other two shaping devices 30 are disconnected from the conveying module 20, or any one of the four shaping devices 30 is connected to the conveying module 20, and the other three shaping devices 30 are disconnected from the conveying module 20.

[0036] In one case, referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the four shaping devices 30 are equally divided into two groups, which are respectively defined as a first shaping group and a second shaping group.

[0037] During the actual operation of the material dividing device 200, Chinese medicine pills are conveyed on the conveying module 20. The user can control the two shaping devices 30 in the first shaping group to be connected to the conveying module 20 according to actual needs, and wait for the material dividing module 21 to be able to convey the Chinese medicine pills on the conveying module 20 to the two shaping devices 30 in the first shaping group that are connected to the conveying module 20. After the two shaping devices 30 in the first shaping group are filled with Chinese medicine pills, the two shaping devices 30 in the second shaping group are controlled to be connected with the conveying module 20, so that the material dividing module 21 can convey the Chinese medicine pills on the conveying module 20 to the two shaping devices 30 in the second shaping group. In this way, in the process of conveying Chinese medicine pills to the second shaping group until it is full, sufficient time can be provided for the first shaping group to shape the Chinese medicine pills therein and discharge the Chinese medicine pills after shaping.

[0038] Correspondingly, after the second shaping group is filled with Chinese medicine pills, it is necessary to control the two shaping devices 30 in the first shaping group to be connected with the conveying module 20 again, and the Chinese medicine pills on the conveying module 20 can be conveyed to the two shaping devices 30 in the first shaping group connected with the conveying module 20 through the to-be-divided material module 21. In this way, in the process of conveying Chinese medicine pills to the first shaping group until it is full, sufficient time can be provided for the second shaping group to shape the Chinese medicine pills therein and discharge the Chinese medicine pills after shaping.

[0039] In the Chinese medicine pill making system 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the first shaping group and the second shaping group are alternately controlled to be connected to the conveying module 20, respectively, so as to ensure that the Chinese medicine pills on the conveying module 20 can be continuously conveyed to the shaping device 30 connected to the first shaping group or the second shaping group, and the Chinese medicine pills can be continuously shaped by the shaping device 30. In this way, the automation degree of the material dividing device 200 is improved, thereby reducing labor costs and improving production efficiency.

[0040] It should be noted that, in a preferred embodiment, the time required for the first shaping group to transport the Chinese medicine pills to be full should be equal to the time required for the second shaping group to shape and discharge the Chinese medicine pills therein; correspondingly, the time required for the second shaping group to transport the Chinese medicine pills to be full should be equal to the time required for the first shaping group to shape and discharge the Chinese medicine pills therein. In this way, the time required for alternation between the first shaping group and the second shaping group can be reduced, thereby further improving production efficiency.

[0041] In another case, the four shaping devices 30 are controlled by the dividing module 21 to be connected to the conveying module 20 in sequence, and the time required for any shaping device 30 to convey the Chinese medicine pills to be full can ensure that the adjacent shaping device 30 that is already full of Chinese medicine pills can shape and discharge the Chinese medicine pills therein.

[0042] In the material distribution device 200 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the material distribution module 21 controls the external devices to be alternately connected with the conveying module 20, thereby ensuring that the materials on the conveying module 20 can be continuously transported to the external devices connected thereto, and the materials can be processed by the external devices. In this way, the automation degree of the material distribution device 200 can be improved, thereby reducing labor costs and improving production efficiency.

[0043] In some embodiments, not shown, the material distribution module 21 includes at least one material distribution component, and each material distribution component is correspondingly connected between the conveying module 20 and an external device.

[0044] It is understandable that when the number of external devices is four, the number of material distribution components is also four, and each material distribution component is correspondingly connected between the conveying module 20 and an external device. In this way, during the actual operation of the material distribution device 200, the user can control the material distribution component to disconnect or connect the corresponding external device and the conveying module 20 according to actual needs.

[0045] In some embodiments, not shown, the material distribution assembly includes a material distribution pipeline 211 and a switch valve, the material distribution pipeline 211 is connected between the conveying module 20 and the external device, and each switch valve is arranged on the material distribution pipeline 211 and is used to open and close the material distribution pipeline 211.

[0046] It is understandable that when the switch valve opens the material distribution pipeline 211, the material on the conveying module 20 can enter the material distribution pipeline 211 and be conveyed to the corresponding external device connected to it through the material distribution pipeline 211. When the switch valve closes the material distribution pipeline 211, there is no material flow between the external device connected through the material distribution pipeline 211 and the conveying module 20.

[0047] In other embodiments, referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the material distribution module 21 includes at least one material distribution component, and each material distribution component is connected between the conveying module 20 and at least two external devices.

[0048] It is understandable that when the number of external devices is four, each material distribution component is connected between the conveying module 20 and the two external devices. In this way, during the actual operation of the material distribution device 200, the user can control the material distribution component to simultaneously disconnect or connect the two external devices corresponding to the material distribution component and the conveying module 20, or the material distribution component can separately disconnect or connect the two external devices corresponding to the material distribution component and the conveying module 20 according to actual needs.

[0049] In other embodiments, referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the material distribution assembly includes at least two material distribution pipes 211 and switch valves, one material distribution pipe 211 correspondingly connects between the conveying module 20 and an external device, and each switch valve is disposed on the material distribution pipe 211 in a one-to-one correspondence and is used to open and close the corresponding material distribution pipe 211.

[0050] It is understandable that when the switch valve opens the material distribution pipeline 211, the material on the conveying module 20 can enter the material distribution pipeline 211 and be conveyed to the corresponding external device connected to it through the material distribution pipeline 211. When the switch valve closes the material distribution pipeline 211, there is no material flow between the external device connected through the material distribution pipeline 211 and the conveying module 20.

[0051] In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the material distribution device further includes a control module, and the control module is used to control the material distribution module 21 to selectively disconnect the connection between the conveying module 20 and any external device.

[0052] A shaping tool 300 is used in a Chinese medicine pill making system 100, comprising at least two shaping devices 30 and a material dividing device 200 as in the above-mentioned embodiment. The material dividing device 200 is connected between a conveying module 20 and at least two shaping devices 30.

[0053] It can be understood that the shaping tool 300 provided in the embodiment of the present application is used in the Chinese medicine pill making system 100. In the actual operation process of the shaping tool 300, the material distribution module 21 alternately controls each shaping device 30 to be connected to the conveying module 20, thereby ensuring that the Chinese medicine pills on the conveying module 20 can be continuously transported to the shaping device 30 connected thereto, and the Chinese medicine pills can be continuously shaped by the corresponding shaping device 30. In this way, the automation degree of the material distribution device 200 is improved, thereby reducing labor costs and improving production efficiency.

[0054] In some embodiments, the shaping tool 300 further includes a flipping device 31 , and the flipping device 31 is drivingly connected to each shaping device 30 .

[0055] It can be understood that the flipping device 31 can control each shaping device 30 to flip so as to shape the Chinese medicine pills in the shaping device 30 .

[0056] In some embodiments, the shaping tool 300 further includes a discharge conveying device 32 , which is connected to the shaping device 30 and is used to convey the material in the shaping device 30 .

[0057] It can be understood that the Chinese medicine pills after the shaping process are discharged from the shaping device 30 through the discharging conveying device 32 and conveyed to the next process.

[0058] 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.
