For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0038] The utility model proposes a Figures 1 to 4 The quantitative filling equipment of the paste packaging machine shown in the figure and Figure 5 The paste prescription packaging machine shown.

[0039] Paste prescription packaging machine is a device used to pack paste prescriptions according to the set amount. The paste prescription generally refers to Chinese medicine paste prescription, which is one of the eight dosage forms in traditional Chinese medicine: pills, powders, pastes, pills, wine, dew, soup, and tablets. Of course, this paste prescription packaging machine is not limited to Chinese medicine, but can also be used for Western medicine and Chinese and Western medicine, and there is no restriction on the applicable drugs.

[0040] Quantitative filling equipment refers to equipment that accurately distributes the paste prescription in the medicine storage barrel according to the set dosage. This equipment determines whether the dosage of the paste prescription after packaging is accurate.

[0041] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the quantitative filling equipment includes:

[0042] Fixed bottom plate 6;

[0043] The plunger pump 1 is arranged on a fixed base plate 6 and comprises a plunger sleeve 12 and a plunger 11 with one end movable in the plunger sleeve 12 and the other end outside the plunger sleeve 12;

[0044] The lead screw 2 comprises a screw rod 21 and a slider 22 threadedly connected to the screw rod 21. When the screw rod 21 rotates, the slider 22 moves along the axis of the screw rod 21.

[0045] The screw rod 21 is arranged on the fixed base plate 6 , and its axis is parallel to the axis of the plunger sleeve 12 . The slider 22 is connected to the plunger 11 . The slider 22 moves along the axis of the screw rod 21 to drive one end of the plunger 11 to move in the plunger sleeve 12 .

[0046] The fixed base plate 6 is a flat, horizontally arranged metal plate, and other components can be mounted on the upper and lower surfaces of the fixed base plate 6 .

[0047] The screw 2 is preferably a ball screw 2, which can effectively improve transmission accuracy and reduce wear.

[0048] The plunger sleeve 12 of the plunger pump 1 is a cylindrical structure with outlets at both ends. Part or all of the plunger 11 is inside the plunger sleeve 12 and abuts against the inner peripheral side wall of the plunger sleeve 12. When the plunger 11 moves, the paste can be sucked in or discharged from one end of the plunger sleeve 12.

[0049] Specifically, the outlet at one end of the plunger sleeve 12 is the paste inlet and outlet for the paste to enter and exit, and the outlet at the other end is the plunger port for the movement of the plunger 11. When the plunger 11 moves away from the end of the paste inlet and outlet, the air pressure in the plunger sleeve 12 between the plunger 11 and the paste inlet and outlet decreases, and the paste from the medicine storage barrel 8 is sucked into the plunger sleeve 12 from the paste inlet and outlet; when the plunger 11 moves toward one end of the paste inlet and outlet, the plunger 11 squeezes the paste in the plunger sleeve 12, and discharges the paste in the plunger sleeve 12 into the packaging equipment 9, completing the packaging of the paste.

[0050] The slider 22 of the lead screw 2 is sleeved on the screw 21. When the screw 21 rotates, the slider 22 moves along the screw 21 under the action of the thread. The movement direction of the slider 22 along the screw 21 can be controlled by controlling the rotation direction of the screw 21, and then the plunger 11 fixedly connected to the slider 22 is controlled to move in the plunger sleeve 12 along the extension direction of the screw 21 (which is also the extension direction of the plunger sleeve 12), thereby realizing the plunger pump 1 to suck and discharge the paste.

[0051] In the utility model, the position of the screw 21 of the lead screw 2 is fixed, and the slider 22 is driven to move along the screw 21 by the rotation of the screw 21, and the slider 22 drives the plunger 11 of the plunger pump 1 to move to complete the suction and discharge of the paste. During this process, the screw 21 does not need to move, and the slider 22 only moves on the screw 21. There is no need to provide space beyond the length of the screw 21 for the lead screw 2 to drive the plunger 11, which effectively reduces the space required for the work of the lead screw 2 structure and reduces the volume of the quantitative filling equipment.

[0052] The screw 21 of the lead screw 2 is provided with a second driven wheel 25 at the end away from the plunger pump 1. The driving device also includes a second motor 7. A second driving wheel 71 is provided on the output shaft of the second motor 7. The second driving wheel 71 and the second driven wheel 25 are connected by a belt, and the second motor 7 provides power for the rotation of the screw 21.

[0053] A tensioning wheel is provided between the second driving wheel 71 and the second driven wheel 25 for tensioning the belt connecting the second driving wheel 71 and the second driven wheel 25 to reduce the friction between the belt and the second driving wheel 71 and the second driven wheel 25, so that the second motor 7 can drive the stroke of the plunger pump 1 more accurately.

[0054] Furthermore, the output shaft of the second motor 7 is parallel to the screw rod 21 , and the output shaft of the second motor 7 extends from the second driving wheel 71 to an end of the screw rod 21 where the second driven wheel 25 is not provided.

[0055] The second motor 7 and the lead screw 2 are both arranged on the same side of the second driving wheel 71 and the second driven wheel 25, which can effectively utilize the space perpendicular to the extension direction of the screw 21, reduce the space occupied in the extension direction of the screw 21, and reduce the volume of the quantitative filling equipment.

[0056] Furthermore, the second motor 7 uses a stepper motor, which can accurately control the rotation angle, realize accurate control of the rotation angle of the screw 21, and then accurately control the displacement of the slider 22, and finally realize the precise dosage of the paste inhaled and discharged by the plunger pump 1. Compared with the use of ordinary motors, the use of stepper motors can improve the accuracy of the paste dosage from 5%-15% to 2%.

[0057] As an embodiment of the present utility model, Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, one side of the slider 22 has a connecting piece 26 protruding from the slider 22 body, and the connecting piece 26 is connected to one end of the plunger 11 outside the plunger sleeve 12 .

[0058] The connecting member 26 connects the slider 22 and one end of the plunger 11 , and is fixed to the slider 22 and the plunger 11 using screws.

[0059] Furthermore, the second motor 7 is arranged on one side of the extending direction of the screw 21, and the plunger pump 1 is arranged on the other side of the extending direction of the screw 21, so as to avoid mutual interference between the two.

[0060] In this embodiment, the plunger pump 1 is arranged on one side of the extension direction of the screw 21, rather than being arranged coaxially with the screw 21, so that the plunger 11 is prevented from colliding with the screw 21 when moving with the slider 22, and the plunger 11 does not need to be specially designed to avoid the screw 21. At the same time, the plunger 11 and the screw 21 are partially staggered, further saving space in the extension direction of the screw 21.

[0061] As an implementation method of this embodiment, Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, there is a guide rail 23 arranged along the axial direction of the screw rod 21 below the screw rod 21, and the slider 22 is slidably connected to the guide rail 23.

[0062] The guide rail 23 can be set to have a "T"-shaped or "I"-shaped cross-section, and the slider 22 can be partially sleeved on the guide rail 23 and slide along the guide rail 23. The guide rail 23 with a "T"-shaped or "I"-shaped cross-section can increase the stability of the abutment between the slider 22 and the guide rail 23.

[0063] In this embodiment, the slider 22 moves under the action of the rotating screw 21. Since the screw 21 is rotating, it is not stable and may vibrate, resulting in unstable movement and synchronous vibration of the slider 22, which affects the working stability of the plunger pump 1. A guide rail 23 is provided along the extending direction of the screw 21, and the guide rail 23 can provide support for the slider 22, reduce the vibration of the slider 22 during movement, and thus stably move along the screw 21.

[0064] At the same time, when the screw 21 rotates, the friction between the screw 21 and the slider 22 will also make the slider 22 tend to rotate synchronously with the screw 21. If the slider 22 rotates with the screw 21, the slider 22 will not be able to move along the direction of the screw 21. The guide rail 23 abutting against the slider 22 can also offset the friction between the slider 22 and the screw 21, so that the slider 22 cannot rotate with the screw 21, ensuring that the slider 22 can move along the extension direction of the screw 21.

[0065] Furthermore, the slider 22 includes an upper block and a lower block, wherein the upper block is sleeved on the screw rod 21 and is threadedly connected to the screw rod 21, and the lower block abuts against the slide rail and can move along the slide rail. The upper block and the lower block are fixedly connected by screws or rivets.

[0066] Furthermore, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the fixed base plate 6 has two mounting bosses 24 that are opposite to each other and spaced apart, and the two ends of the screw rod 21 and the guide rail 23 are respectively disposed on the two mounting bosses 24 .

[0067] The fixing boss 24 is connected to the fixing base plate 6 by screws. The fixing boss 24 includes two detachable upper and lower layers. Both ends of the guide rail 23 are connected to the lower layer, and both ends of the screw rod 21 are connected to the upper layer.

[0068] Furthermore, the extending directions of the screw rod 21 and the plunger sleeve 12 are both arranged in the horizontal direction, parallel to the fixed bottom plate 6, and the guide rail 23 abutting against the slider 22 is also arranged in the horizontal direction.

[0069] The two ends of the screw rod 21 are fixed by two fixing bosses 24, which ensures that the screw rod 21 will not move in its extension direction and does not affect the rotation of the screw rod 21. The screw rod 21 and the guide rail 23 are connected to the fixing bosses 24, so that the extension directions of the guide rail 23 and the screw rod 21 are kept consistent, so that the slider 22 can move smoothly under the dual action of the screw rod 21 and the guide rail 23.

[0070] As another implementation of this embodiment, Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a plunger position sensor 51 is provided on the fixed base plate 6 , close to the side of the plunger 11 of the plunger pump 1 , and the plunger position sensor 51 can emit a detection signal for detecting the moving position of the plunger 11 .

[0071] The plunger position sensor 51 can effectively detect the position of the plunger 11 and prevent the lead screw 2 from pulling the plunger 11 too far to damage the plunger pump 1 .

[0072] Furthermore, there are at least two plunger position sensors 51, which are respectively disposed at both ends of the screw rod 21, and are used to detect whether the plunger 11 reaches the corresponding position.

[0073] Specifically, the two plunger position sensors 51 are arranged on the fixed base plate 6 , and the plunger position sensor 51 close to the plunger sleeve 12 is opposite to the connecting piece 26 connecting the slide block 22 and the plunger 11 in a direction perpendicular to the extension of the plunger pump 1 .

[0074] In this embodiment, the plunger position sensor 51 can monitor the position of the slider 22 or the plunger 11, and then feedback the position of the plunger 11 during the filling process of the paste, and adjust the operation of the second motor 7, thereby ensuring that the filling can be completed and the plunger pump 1 is not damaged.

[0075] Furthermore, the distance between the two plunger position sensors 51 is the same as the maximum moving distance of the plunger 11 in the plunger sleeve 12 .

[0076] Specifically, one plunger position sensor 51 is opposite to the position of the connector 26 when the plunger 11 completely enters the plunger sleeve 12 , and the other plunger position sensor 51 is opposite to the position of the connector 26 when the plunger 11 moves to the limit outside the plunger sleeve 12 .

[0077] The plunger 11 completely entering the plunger sleeve 12 means that the plunger 11 moves to the limit position in the plunger sleeve 12 and cannot move further. At this time, the space in the plunger sleeve 12 that can accommodate the paste is the smallest. It does not mean that the plunger 11 body is completely immersed in the plunger sleeve 12 with no exposed part.

[0078] The plunger 11 moves to the limit outside the plunger sleeve 12, which means that the plunger 11 is pulled out of the plunger sleeve 12 to the limit position. At this time, the space in the plunger sleeve 12 that can accommodate the paste is the largest, and the plunger 11 does not separate from the plunger sleeve 12. The plunger 11 can still abut against the inner side wall of the plunger sleeve 12 to maintain an airtight state.

[0079] Generally speaking, the maximum moving distance of the plunger 11 in the plunger sleeve 12 is smaller than the total length of the plunger sleeve 12 .

[0080] Two plunger position sensors 51 for detecting the position of the slider 22 or the plunger 11 can feedback the actual position of the slider 22 or the plunger 11. When the slider 22 or the plunger 11 moves to the extreme positions at both ends of the stroke, the plunger position sensor 51 can detect the position of the slider 22 or the plunger 11 and provide feedback to avoid the plunger 11 being pulled out of the plunger sleeve 12 or the plunger 11 and the plunger sleeve 12 colliding and damaging the plunger pump 1 when the second motor 7 is controlled incorrectly.

[0081] Alternatively, a distance sensor that can detect the moving distance of the slider 22 or the plunger 11 can be set on the fixed base plate 6 to provide real-time feedback on the moving distance of the slider 22 or the plunger 11, thereby monitoring the entire working process of the plunger pump 1.

[0082] Furthermore, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the plunger position sensor 51 includes a plunger sensor transmitting end 511 and a plunger sensor receiving end 512 which are arranged opposite to each other and spaced apart from each other. A positioning piece 52 extending in the horizontal direction is arranged on the slider 22 or the connecting member 26 or the plunger 11.

[0083] The positioning piece 52 can move with the plunger 11 to between the plunger sensor transmitting end 511 and the plunger sensor receiving end 512 , thereby preventing the plunger sensor receiving end 512 from receiving the signal transmitted by the plunger sensor transmitting end 511 .

[0084] Preferably, the positioning piece 52 is fixed to the connecting member 26 by screws;

[0085] Preferably, the plunger position sensor 51 is a photoelectric sensor;

[0086] The plunger sensor transmitting end 511 and the plunger sensor receiving end 512 can be arranged such that the plunger sensor transmitting end 511 is on top and the plunger sensor receiving end 512 is on the bottom, or the plunger sensor receiving end 512 is on top and the plunger sensor transmitting end 511 is on the bottom. The accompanying drawings only show one of the situations.

[0087] The plunger sensor transmitting end 511 of the plunger position sensor 51 transmits light to the plunger sensor receiving end 512, and the plunger sensor receiving end 512 receives the light. When the positioning piece 52 that moves with the slider 22 moves between the plunger sensor transmitting end 511 and the plunger sensor receiving end 512, the light emitted by the plunger sensor transmitting end 511 is blocked by the positioning piece 52 and cannot be received by the plunger sensor receiving end 512, so that the signal of the plunger position sensor 51 changes, thereby realizing the position detection of the slider 22 and the plunger 11.

[0088] Furthermore, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the positioning piece 52 is arranged on the connecting member 26 , and the positioning piece 52 is extended toward the fixed base plate 6 and then bent, and is extended toward between the plunger sensing transmitting end 511 and the plunger sensing receiving end 512 of the plunger position sensor 51 .

[0089] The positioning piece 52 extends toward the fixed base plate 6 and is as close to the fixed base plate 6 as possible, so that the position of the plunger position sensor 51 relative to the fixed base plate 6 can be as low as possible, which not only reduces the used space, but also can avoid the positioning piece 52 being interfered by other components during movement.

[0090] Furthermore, the quantitative filling device further comprises a limit plate 5 which is arranged on the fixed bottom plate 6 and is parallel to the screw 21 , and the two plunger position sensors 51 are respectively arranged at two ends of the limit plate 5 .

[0091] Specifically, the limit plate 5 includes a base plate extending along the extension direction of the screw rod 21, the base plate is horizontally arranged and fixed to the upper surface of the fixed base plate 6. The limit plate 5 also includes a side plate connected to the side of the base plate, the side plate is extended along the extension direction of the screw rod 21 and is perpendicular to the fixed base plate 6. The two plunger position sensors 51 are arranged on the side plate, and the base plate is fixed to the fixed base plate 6 by screws.

[0092] The two plunger position sensors 51 are set on the limit plate 5, and the distance between the two plunger position sensors 51 is determined by the length of the limit plate 5 itself. During installation, there is no need to accurately measure the distance between the two plunger position sensors 51. It is only necessary to install the limit plate 5 on the fixed base plate 6, which simplifies the installation steps.

[0093] As another embodiment of the present utility model, Figures 1 to 4As shown, the paste filling device also includes a three-way ball valve 4 connected to the plunger pump 1, and the three-way ball valve 4 includes a valve body with three valve ports and a valve core with an L-shaped channel. The three valve ports of the valve body are in a "T" shape, and the valve core is spherical and can rotate in the valve body to connect any two adjacent valve ports.

[0094] Preferably, the three valve ports of the valve body are respectively arranged upward, horizontally and downwardly, the horizontally facing valve port is connected to the plunger pump 1 , the upward valve port is connected to the medicine storage barrel 8 , and the downward valve port is connected to the packaging equipment 9 .

[0095] Preferably, the valve core is made of ceramic material, which can greatly avoid the influence of temperature on the rotation of the valve core and the sealing between the valve core and the valve body, and avoid the expansion of the valve core and the jamming of the valve body when the temperature is high, and the contraction of the valve core when the temperature is low, causing the paste to leak between the valve core and the valve body.

[0096] When the valve core rotates to connect the upward and horizontal valve ports, the plunger pump 1 is connected to the medicine storage barrel 8, and the second motor 7 is controlled to rotate, so that the slider 22 moves away from the plunger sleeve 12, driving the plunger 11 to be pulled out of the plunger sleeve 12 and sucking the paste into the plunger sleeve 12. When the inhaled paste reaches a predetermined amount, the second motor 7 is controlled to stop rotating. The valve core is rotated to connect the two horizontal and downward valve ports. At this time, the plunger pump 1 is connected to the packaging equipment 9. The second motor 7 is controlled to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the slider 22 moves toward the plunger sleeve 12, driving the plunger 11 to move into the plunger sleeve 12, and discharging the paste out of the plunger sleeve 12, and discharging it into the packaging equipment 9 through the three-way valve. The discharge is completed and the medicine is packaged as a medicine bag.

[0097] Furthermore, the valve core includes a valve handle perpendicular to the rotation direction of the valve core, and a first driven wheel 41 is provided at the end of the valve handle. The quantitative filling device includes a first motor 3 whose output shaft is perpendicular to the extension direction of the plunger sleeve 12, and a first driving wheel 31 is provided at the end of the output shaft of the first motor 3, and the first driving wheel 31 is connected to the first driving wheel 31 through a belt.

[0098] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the end of the valve handle is also provided with a positioning plate 42 that rotates coaxially with the valve handle, and two notches 421 are provided on the edge of the positioning plate 42. The two notches 421 are arranged at two adjacent quarter points on the edge of the positioning plate 42, and the valve core sensor transmitting end 431 and the valve core sensor receiving end 432 of the valve core angle sensor 43 are respectively provided on both sides of the positioning plate 42.

[0099] When the disc rotates to the point where the notch 421 is located between the valve core sensor emitting end 431 and the valve core sensor receiving end 432, the light emitted by the valve core sensor emitting end 431 can be received by the valve core sensor receiving end 432; when the notch 421 leaves the point between the valve core sensor emitting end 431 and the valve core sensor receiving end 432, the light emitted by the valve core sensor emitting end 431 is blocked by the positioning disc 42 and cannot be received by the valve core sensor receiving end 432, so that the valve handle can be detected by the valve core rotation angle sensor 43 when it is rotated to 90°.

[0100] The positions of the valve core sensor transmitting end 431 and the valve core sensor receiving end 432 can be interchanged, and the figure only shows one case.

[0101] The valve core switches from the state of connecting the plunger pump 1 and the medicine storage barrel 8 to the state of connecting the plunger pump 1 and the packaging equipment 9. The valve core needs to be rotated 90°. The rotation angle of the valve core can be fed back through the cooperation between the positioning plate 42 with a notch 421 and the valve core rotation angle sensor 43 to ensure that the rotation angle is correct.

[0102] Preferably, the first motor 3 is a component motor, which can accurately control the rotation angle compared to an ordinary motor.

[0103] Preferably, the valve core angle sensor 43 is a photoelectric sensor.
