Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medicine classification storage, in particular to a controllable medicine classification pipe device. Background Art

[0002] With the growth of the aging population, human body functions gradually decline, and the elderly are prone to various chronic diseases. Chronic diseases have a long medication cycle and are not easy to be cured. Therefore, more and more middle-aged and elderly people need to take long-term medication. As the elderly grow older, their vision, hearing and memory continue to decline. In addition, their children and relatives cannot often accompany them because of work, resulting in the elderly not being able to get good care during medication. Therefore, many elderly people often take the wrong medication, miss a dose, take more than they should, etc., which hinders the control and treatment of the disease. Whether the medication is taken correctly is of great significance to the treatment of chronic diseases in the elderly.

[0003] For example, the patent application number is 202310547734.0, which is a medicine dispensing device, including a medicine dispensing cartridge arranged in a shell, which is used to classify and store different medicines; a lifting and rotating mechanism is arranged at the bottom of the medicine dispensing cartridge, which is aligned with the medicine outlet by lifting and lowering, and rotates to control the position of the medicine dispensing cartridge; a medicine pushing mechanism is arranged at the top of the lifting and rotating mechanism, which is used to push the medicine at the bottom of the medicine dispensing cartridge out of the medicine outlet hole on the shell, thereby completing the medicine dispensing. However, the disadvantage of this technical solution is that the structure does not reflect that the medicine in the medicine tube warehouse will remain orderly when accidentally touched, which may cause the position of the medicine in the medicine tube warehouse to change, resulting in drug jam. In addition, from the overall structure, the top of the medicine tube warehouse is in a closed state, and the bottom is in an open state. Although it can ensure that the medicine can be pushed out from the bottom, it has certain limitations in drug packaging and the installation of the medicine tube warehouse. The medicine tube warehouse is modularly designed, and the shape and size of the circular tube cross-section are designed according to the size of the medicine to accommodate different types of medicines. Since the drug outlet at the bottom of the medicine tube warehouse is of uniform height, it can adapt to the thickness of capsules, but for tablets, it may cause stacked tablets to be pushed out at the same time, resulting in errors in the amount of medicines.
