[0026] The embodiments of the present utility model provide a storage device for warning about approaching expiration date of a medicament,

[0027] such as Figure 1 、 2, as shown in Figures 3, it includes a storage rack 1 and several medicine bodies 2. An annular slide rail 3 is installed on the storage rack 1. The annular slide rail is set as an elliptical guide rail. A driving mechanism is connected to the annular slide rail 3. The driving mechanism includes two guide disks 4 rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the storage rack 1, a guide conveyor belt 5 wound around the two guide disks 4, and a driving motor connected to the guide disks 4. The conveying base is connected to the guide conveyor belt 5. A plurality of conveying components are installed on the annular slide rail 3. The medicine body 2 is placed on the conveying component. An infrared centering switch 6 is arranged on the storage rack 1. The height position of the infrared centering switch 6 is directly opposite to the medicine body 2. The infrared centering switch 6 is electrically connected to the driving motor. The infrared centering switch 6 can be used to detect whether there is a medicine body 2 on the directly opposite conveying component, that is, whether the medicine body 2 on the conveying component is taken. When the operator takes away the medicine body 2, the infrared centering switch 6 can control the driving motor to rotate, convey the conveying component from which the medicine body 2 has been taken to the next station for replenishment of the medicine body 2. At the same time, the next conveying component is conveyed to the taking station, facilitating the taking of the next medicine body 2. Through the annular slide rail 3, the medicine bodies 2 can be taken in sequence according to the putting-in order, achieving the effect of bringing forth the new through the old and avoiding the situation of the medicine body 2 expiring.

[0028] The conveying component includes a conveying base 7, a guide cylinder 8, a telescopic spring 9, and a placing seat 10. The conveying base 7 is slidably installed on the annular slide rail 3. The guide cylinder 8 is installed on the conveying base 7. A guide rod 11 is arranged at the lower end of the placing seat 10. The guide rod 11 slidably penetrates through the guide cylinder 8. The telescopic spring 9 is connected between the guide cylinder 8 and the guide rod 11. A placing groove is opened at the upper end of the placing seat 10. The medicine body 2 is placed in the placing groove. A guide ring 13 is arranged in the middle of the outer wall of the placing seat 10. Lifting components are arranged on the inner and outer sides of the annular slide rail 3. The lifting components include a connecting plate 15 connected to the storage rack 1 and a lifting bow-shaped piece 16 fixed to the top of the connecting plate 15. The inner and outer lifting bow-shaped pieces 16 are symmetrically arranged on the inner and outer sides of the annular slide rail. The guide ring 13 slidably abuts against the lifting bow-shaped piece 16.

[0029] As Figure 2 , 3 shown, the middle part of the cross-section of the lifting bow-shaped piece 16 is set as an upwardly convex arc part, and both ends of the arc part are set as buffer parts that bend downward and extend. The left and right positions of the infrared centering switch 6 are set in the middle of the arc part of the lifting bow-shaped piece 16, and the set height is higher than the height of the placing groove after lifting. The end height of the buffer part is lower than the height of the guide ring 13 to prevent the guide ring 13 from hitting and jamming in the buffer part.

[0030] As Figure 3As shown, a plurality of abutment blocks 17 are equidistantly arranged on the outer side of the guide conveyor belt 5, and the abutment blocks 17 are arranged as semicircular protrusions. An inner groove is arranged on the inner side of the guide plate 4, and the abutment blocks 17 extend into and abut against the inner groove. The semicircular abutment blocks 17 can avoid being stuck between the turning position of the annular slide rail 3 and the inner groove. When the guide conveyor belt 5 is wound around the guide plate 4 and the abutment blocks 17 are abutted against the inner groove, the transmission component rotates on the annular slide rail 3.

[0031] like Figure 4 , 5 As shown, two sets of guide assemblies are rotatably connected to the front and rear sides of the lower side of the conveying base 7, and the guide assembly includes a guide beam 18 rotatably connected to the conveying base 7 and guide wheels 19 on the inner and outer sides of the guide beam 18, and the guide wheels 19 are in contact with the inner and outer sides of the annular slide rail 3. The guide beam 18 can be rotated on the conveying base 7 and can be rotated according to the shape of the annular slide rail 3 so that the front and rear sets of guide wheels 19 present different angles to meet the guidance requirements of the turning position.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the guide cylinder 8 is rotatably connected to the conveying base 7, the inner side of the connecting plate 15 on the outer side of the annular slide rail 3 is set as a rack 20, and a gear ring 14 is set on the outer wall of the guide cylinder 8. The gear ring 14 and the rack 20 are meshed with each other, and the length of the rack 20 is set to allow the gear ring 14 to rotate one circle. A scanner 12 is set at the position corresponding to the rack 20 on the storage rack 1, and the scanner 12 is facing the medicine body 2. During the sliding process of the conveying component on the annular slide rail 3, the gear ring 14 rotates through the position of the rack 20, so that the medicine body 2 placed on the conveying component rotates one circle, and the two-dimensional code of the medicine body 2 placed on the conveying component rotates one circle, so that the randomly placed medicine body 2 with any orientation of the two-dimensional code can be scanned by the scanner 12 to determine whether the medicine body 2 is about to expire. The scanner 12 is electrically connected to an alarm. When the medicine is about to expire, the alarm sounds an alarm to avoid the expired medicine being distributed to the user.

[0033] Workflow:

[0034] In the utility model, the medicine body 2 is placed in sequence according to the storage date at the next workstation opposite to the infrared centering switch 6. When the medicine body 2 is not placed at the position opposite to the infrared centering switch 6, the infrared centering switch 6 controls the driving motor to move the conveying component to the next workpiece until the conveying component for placing the medicine body is transported to the position of the infrared centering switch 6. The conveying component contacts the lifting guide ring 13 through the lifting bow piece 16, so that the guide cylinder 8, the placement groove and the medicine body 2 are lifted as a whole, blocking the infrared centering switch 6, and the driving motor stops, and the medicine storage of the storage device is completed.

[0035] When it is necessary to take the medicament, the conveying component touches the lifting guide ring 13 through the lifting bow piece 16, so that the guide cylinder 8, the placing groove and the medicament body 2 are lifted as a whole, protruding from other medicament bodies 2, giving a taking hint to the operator, so that the operator can take the medicament body 2 according to the conveying sequence, so as to achieve the purpose of bringing forth the new and avoiding the situation of the medicament expiration, and facilitating the storage management of the medicament.

[0036] During the taking process, the conveying component slides through the position of the rack 20 under the action of the annular slide rail 3. The rack 20 meshes with the gear ring 14 on the conveying component. During the sliding process, the rotation of the gear ring 14 drives the guide cylinder 8, the telescopic spring 9, the placing seat 10 and the medicament body 2 to rotate as a whole on the conveying base 7, so that the medicament body 2 rotates one week. During the rotation process, the two-dimensional code of the medicament body 2 placed in any orientation will face the scanner 12 to detect whether the medicament is approaching the expiration date. When the medicament expires, the alarm will give an alarm hint to avoid issuing the expired medicament to the user.

[0037] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
