Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The pill loading device of the utility model relates to the technical field of drug sub-packaging, and particularly to a pill loading device for micro-pill quantitative sub-packaging. Background Art
[0002] At present, the existing pill loading method is manual pill loading. When loading pills, each person needs a medicine spoon for loading medicine, and only one bottle can be loaded each time. Moreover, the medicine bottles stored at the plate placing position after pill loading are unstable and prone to falling over and spilling materials, which affects the work efficiency of the subsequent capping personnel. This working method has a large workload and low efficiency.
[0003] In view of the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, it is very necessary to research and design a new type of pill loading device to overcome the problems existing in the prior art. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of the technical problems of unstable discharge of the medicine bottles after manual medicine loading, easy falling over and spilling of materials, affecting the subsequent capping process, large workload and low efficiency of manual operation in the above-mentioned prior art, a pill loading device is provided. The utility model mainly uses the same number of feeding hoppers and medicine spoon devices to load the same number of empty medicine bottles, so as to achieve the effects of reducing the working intensity, improving the working efficiency, and the medicine bottles are not easy to fall over when moving forward in the bottle inlet channel.
[0005] The technical means adopted by the utility model are as follows:
[0006] A pill loading device includes a bottle inlet channel; the front end of the bottle inlet channel is connected to the outlet end of a bottle arranging tray; a bottle dividing wheel is arranged on the bottle arranging tray;
[0007] Further, N feeding hoppers are arranged on one side of the bottle inlet channel. The feeding hoppers are connected to the top ends of the blanking pipes, and the bottom outlets of the blanking pipes are located at the top ends of the mouths of the empty medicine bottles in the bottle inlet channel;
[0008] Further, the feeding hoppers are manually fed by the medicine spoon device. The medicine spoon device pours the medicine grains into the feeding hoppers, and the medicine grains fall from the bottom ends of the feeding hoppers into the medicine bottles.
[0009] Further, a plurality of medicine shovels are arranged at the front end of the medicine spoon device. The same number of medicine grids are arranged on each medicine shovel, and each medicine grid can hold one pill;
[0010] Further, the number of the medicine grids is the same as the number of medicine grains that each empty bottle needs to hold.
[0011] Further, the number of the feeding hoppers is an integer multiple of the number of the medicine shovels on one medicine spoon device.
[0012] Further, the medicine shovels form a 35° angle with the spoon handle of the medicine spoon device, which is convenient for pouring medicine into the feeding hoppers.
[0013] Further, a counting photoelectric eye is provided at the front end of the bottle inlet channel;
[0014] Further, the number of empty bottles counted by the counting photoelectric eye is the same as the number of the feeding hoppers.
[0015] Further, a positioning cylinder is provided on the bottle inlet channel for blocking empty bottles;
[0016] Further, the positioning cylinder is connected to the counting photoelectric eye and an external control system, and under the control of the control system, the forward-moving medicine bottles are segmented according to the data output by the counting photoelectric eye.
[0017] The working process of the utility model is as follows:
[0018] The medicine bottles are automatically fed into the bottle inlet track by using a bottle arranging tray and a bottle dividing wheel. The pills are loaded into the feeding hoppers manually by using a 5-connected medicine spoon device. Each feeding hopper corresponds to a discharging pipeline, and the discharging pipeline is located at a height of 3-5 mm above the bottle mouth, so that the pills can smoothly enter the empty bottles without spilling. The bottle inlet track is counted by the counting photoelectric eye. Every time 10 bottles are detected, the positioning cylinder is triggered to act once, so that the discharging track is exactly aligned with 10 empty bottles. Then the pills are loaded manually. After the loading is completed, the positioning cylinder acts, and the counting of the next 10 medicine bottles is carried out. After the counting is completed, the positioning cylinder is started to complete the next loading process.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages:
[0020] 1. The pill loading device provided by the utility model is provided with a medicine spoon device, which ensures the accuracy of the pill loading amount;
[0021] 2. The pill loading device provided by the utility model is provided with a feeding hopper and a discharging pipeline, which makes the loading convenient and easy to operate, and the phenomenon of material spilling will not occur;
[0022] 3. The pill loading device provided by the utility model, the discharging pipeline is located 3-5 mm above the bottle mouth, so that the pills can smoothly enter the bottle without spilling;
[0023] 4. The pill loading device provided by the utility model is provided with a counting photoelectric eye, which can ensure the accuracy of bottle loading and will not cause the phenomenon of empty bottles;
[0024] 5. The pill loading device provided by the utility model is provided with a positioning cylinder cooperating with the counting photoelectric eye, which can ensure the number of bottles loaded and can also position the empty bottles to avoid the phenomenon of material spilling during loading.
[0025] 6. The pill loading device provided by the utility model, the medicine bottles travel in the bottle inlet track, which prevents the phenomenon of bottle overturning and avoids the inconvenience of subsequent station operations.
[0026] In summary, the technical solution of the present utility model solves the problems in the prior art that the discharged medicine bottles are unstable after manual loading, prone to bottle toppling and material scattering, affecting the subsequent capping process; at the same time, the manual operation has a large workload and low efficiency.
