[0024] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the technical field to which this utility model belongs. The terms used herein in the specification of this utility model are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this utility model. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.
[0025] As Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the present utility model provides a prescription form recycling machine, including a baffle 22 and a tubular conveyor 1. The conveyor 1 is used to transport the prescription forms entering its interior to the interior of the machine housing 2 for storage. The baffle 22 is used to open and close the discharge port of the conveyor 1. An inlet 11 communicating with the conveyor 1 is formed on the machine housing 2 for putting in prescription forms. A document sensor 3 and a barcode scanner 5 are installed in the conveyor 1. The document sensor 3, the barcode scanner 5 and the driver 4 are electrically connected. The document sensor 3 is used to detect whether there is a prescription form to control whether the barcode scanner 5 is started to scan the prescription form. After the barcode scanner 5 successfully scans the prescription form, it will start the driver 4. The baffle 22 is connected to the output part of the driver 4. When the driver 4 does not receive a successful scanning instruction, the baffle 22 is kept below the discharge port of the conveyor 1 to close the discharge port, so that the prescription form is temporarily stored at the discharge port of the conveyor 1 to ensure that the document sensor 3 and the barcode scanner 5 can scan the prescription form. When the driver 4 receives a successful scanning instruction, it drives the baffle 22 to move away from the discharge port of the conveyor 1 to open the discharge port, and the prescription form falls into the interior of the machine housing 2 under the action of gravity. When the baffle 22 moves to the threshold position, the driver 4 drives the baffle 22 to reset (make the baffle 22 return to the position below the discharge port of the conveyor 1) to perform the next prescription form scanning and recycling process.
[0026] As Figures 3 to 4As shown, specifically, the conveyor 1 includes a U-shaped frame 14 and a flat plate 15 that are snap-connected. A transmission channel for the prescription form to move is enclosed between the U-shaped frame 14 and the flat plate 15. A slot I 141 adapted to the document sensor 3 is provided on the U-shaped frame 14, and a slot II 151 adapted to the barcode scanner 5 is provided on the flat plate 15, so that the document sensor 3 and the barcode scanner 5 can detect and scan the prescription form in the transmission channel.
[0027] Specifically, the conveyor 1 is inclined in the inner cavity of the housing 2, and the vertical cross-sectional area of the conveyor 1 gradually decreases in the direction close to the discharge port.
[0028] The inclined setting allows the prescription form to move downward in the conveyor 1 under the action of its own weight, and the gradually decreasing vertical cross-sectional area can reduce the distance between the document sensor 3 and the barcode scanner 5 and the prescription form, facilitating their detection and scanning.
[0029] As Figures 5 to 6 As shown, specifically, the driver 4 is fixedly installed outside the flat plate 15 of the conveyor 1 through a right-angle bracket 41. The output part of the driver 4 is clamped with the baffle 22 and the reinforcement plate 42 through a notch at its axial end. Bolts penetrate the output part of the driver 4, the baffle 22, and the reinforcement plate in the radial direction to fix the three. The reinforcement plate 42 is located below the baffle 22 and is used to increase the strength of the baffle 22 to prevent the baffle 22 from deforming or even cracking under stress when reciprocating and contacting the discharge port of the conveyor 1.
[0030] A transverse clamping plate 13 is also constructed on the flat plate 15 on the side of the discharge port of the conveyor 1. The transverse clamping plate 13 is located above the plane where the baffle 22 is located. The transverse clamping plate 13 is used to cooperate with the baffle 22 to increase the limiting space. When a part of the prescription form is bent, the transverse clamping plate 13 and the baffle 22 can clamp the bent part to prevent the prescription form from slipping out between the discharge port and the baffle 22 due to bending.
[0031] Pick-up doors 21 are installed at both the front end and the rear end of the housing 2. The inner bottom plate of the housing 2 is constructed between the two pick-up doors 21 and is inclined relative to the pick-up doors 21.
[0032] The inclined setting can prevent the prescription forms from being all stacked directly below the discharge port, making the prescription forms disperse along the inclination direction and making full use of the storage space inside the housing 2 as much as possible. The design of the double pick-up doors 21 can handle various working conditions. Even if a user inserts a prescription form in the front, the doctor can open the rear pick-up door 21 to take out the prescription form.
[0033] Specifically, the driver 4 can be a commercially available component such as an electromagnet or an electric cylinder that can achieve reciprocating drive. When an electromagnet is used, the blocking plate 22 is located below the discharge port in the state where the electromagnet bounces open, and the blocking plate 22 moves away from the discharge port in the state where the electromagnet bounces and closes.
[0034] The working principle and process of the present utility model are as follows:
[0035] When a prescription form needs to be recycled, the prescription form is placed into the conveyor 1 from the feed port 11. When the prescription form reaches the discharge port, it is temporarily stored in the conveyor 1 under the action of the blocking plate 22. The document sensor 3 detects the presence of the prescription form and controls the scanner 5 to start scanning the prescription form. After the scanner 5 successfully scans the prescription form, it activates the driver 4. When the driver 4 receives the successful scanning instruction, it drives the blocking plate 22 to move in the direction away from the discharge port of the conveyor 1 to open the discharge port. The prescription form falls into the interior of the machine housing 2 under the action of gravity. When the blocking plate 22 moves to the threshold position, the driver 4 drives the blocking plate 22 to reset below the discharge port of the conveyor 1, and the above process is continued to repeat the next prescription form scanning and recycling process.
[0036] The above has described the embodiments of the present utility model in detail, but the above content is only the preferred embodiment of the present utility model and cannot be considered as limiting the implementation scope of the present utility model. All equal changes and improvements made according to the scope of the present utility model should still fall within the scope covered by this patent.
