During this process, every time a granule tablet drops, the infrared counting sensor 15 installed on the outer side wall of the transparent single-grain output pipe 12 will perform an automatic count and upload the data to the control device externally connected to the device. These counted tablets will fall into the medicine bottles on the belt conveyor 3 in sequence. When the preset value is reached, the externally connected control device will control the motor 14 to start, drive the automatic sealing plate 13 to flip and block the transparent single-grain output pipe 12, which can complete the dispensing work of automatically measuring and dropping the granule preparation medicine into the corresponding medicine bottles, improving the accuracy and efficiency compared to manual auxiliary measurement and feeding, etc.;

[0029] The barcode scanner 9 is installed at one end of the carrier 7. A servo motor 19 and a belt conveyor 3 are fixed inside the carrier 7. The output end of the servo motor 19 is connected to a sorting manipulator 5, and an electric clamp 17 and an infrared camera 18 are installed on the sorting manipulator 5.

[0030] On both sides of the top of the belt conveyor 3, limit bars 2 are installed. Assembly clamping seats 1 that are clamped to the belt conveyor 3 are provided at both ends of the limit bars 2, so that the limit bars 2 can be used to limit and guide the medicine bottles conveyed on the belt conveyor 3, and the clamping structure between the assembly clamping seats 1 and the belt conveyor 3 is used to facilitate the independent disassembly and maintenance of the limit bars 2.

[0031] A first infrared fence 8 that matches the barcode scanner 9 is installed on the belt conveyor 3 by screws, so that it is convenient to use the first infrared fence 8 to intelligently sense the medicine bottles conveyed to the position corresponding to the barcode scanner 9 on the belt conveyor 3.

[0032] A second infrared fence 10 that matches the dispensing medicine storage tank 4 is installed on the belt conveyor 3 by screws, so that it is convenient to use the second infrared fence 10 to intelligently sense the medicine bottles conveyed to the position corresponding to the dispensing medicine storage tank 4 on the belt conveyor 3.

[0033] Nano - copper antibacterial layers are provided on the inner side walls of the dispensing medicine storage tank 4, the lower discharge chute 11, and the transparent single - grain output pipe 12. A sealing plug is threadedly connected to the top of the dispensing medicine storage tank 4.

[0034] Rubber buffer feet are evenly installed at the edge of the bottom of the carrier 7 by screws. Two medicine - bottle material boxes 6 are evenly placed at one end of the carrier 7, so that it is convenient to use the two medicine - bottle material boxes 6 to pre - place empty medicine bottles and receive mis - labeled medicine bottles respectively.

[0035] The electric clamp 17 is installed at the output end of the sorting manipulator 5 by screws, and the infrared camera 18 is installed on the electric clamp 17 by screws, so that it is convenient to achieve the independent disassembly and maintenance of the electric clamp 17 and the infrared camera 18.

[0036] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: First, connect an external power supply and a control device. The sorting manipulator 5 is selected and, with the rotation adjustment of the servo motor 19 at its bottom, the empty medicine bottles placed inside the medicine bottle feeding box 6 can be automatically taken out by the electric clamp 17 equipped with an infrared camera 18 for detection and monitoring and sent to the belt conveyor 3 for transmission. When it is transmitted to the barcode scanner 9, the label attached to the outer wall of the medicine bottle can be scanned and identified, facilitating the intelligent confirmation of the label information of the medicine bottle and uploading it to the external control device. When a label error is detected, the control device will control the belt conveyor 3 to move in the reverse direction to convey the incorrect medicine bottle back, and use the sorting manipulator 5 and the electric clamp 17 to automatically put the incorrect medicine bottle into the corresponding medicine bottle feeding box 6 for collecting incorrect medicine bottles. This enables the device to achieve the functions of automatic feeding, automatic identification of medicine bottle label information, and recycling of incorrect medicine bottles. Then, when the correct medicine is transmitted to the dispensing storage tank 4, the vibration motor 16 is started. The granular tablets inside the dispensing storage tank 4 are evenly dropped under the action of gravity, and then enter the relatively narrow transparent single-grain output pipe 12 one by one through the lower discharge chute 11 and are discharged. During this process, each time a granular tablet drops, the infrared counting sensor 15 installed on the outer side wall of the transparent single-grain output pipe 12 will perform an automatic count and upload the data to the control device external to the device. These counted tablets will fall into the medicine bottle on the belt conveyor 3 in sequence. When the preset value is reached, the external control device will control the motor 14 to start, driving the automatic blocking plate 13 to flip and block the transparent single-grain output pipe 12, which can complete the dispensing work of automatically measuring and dropping the granular preparation medicine into the corresponding medicine bottle. Compared with manual-assisted measurement and feeding, etc., it improves the accuracy and efficiency. At the same time, on the one hand, the first infrared fence 8 installed on the belt conveyor 3 by screws and matched with the barcode scanner 9 is used to facilitate the intelligent induction of the medicine bottle conveyed to the position of the corresponding barcode scanner 9 on the belt conveyor 3. On the other hand, the second infrared fence 10 installed on the belt conveyor 3 by screws and matched with the dispensing storage tank 4 is used to facilitate the intelligent induction of the medicine bottle conveyed to the position of the corresponding dispensing storage tank 4 on the belt conveyor 3. In addition, by installing limit bars 2 on both sides of the top of the belt conveyor 3 and setting assembly card seats 1 that are clamped with the belt conveyor 3 at both ends of the limit bars 2, the device not only uses the limit bars 2 to limit and guide the medicine bottles conveyed on the belt conveyor 3, but also uses the clamping structure between the assembly card seats 1 and the belt conveyor 3 to facilitate the independent disassembly and maintenance of the limit bars 2.
