Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical appliances, in particular to a tablet cutting device. Background Technique

[0002] After patients are treated in the hospital, in order to control the condition for a long time in the later stage, doctors prescribe medicine for patients to take at home. There are many types of drugs, including tablets made by compression. During the period when patients take medicine, as the condition improves, doctors often let patients reduce the dosage. When only half a tablet needs to be taken, the whole tablet needs to be cut, so a corresponding cutting device is required;

[0003] When the existing cutting devices are actually used, they are often simple cutting knives. Staff hold the cutting knives to cut the tablets in half. During the cutting process, the cut tablets are likely to jump to other places and get lost. Moreover, during the cutting process, staff need to hold the tablets to align them for cutting, which is likely to contaminate the tablets. Therefore, we propose a tablet cutting device.

[0030] Please refer to Figures 1-3 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a tablet cutting device, including a first housing 1 and a second housing 11;

[0031] A second housing 11 is integrally formed at one end of the first housing 1. Placing the tablets in the first housing 1 and the second housing 11 for cutting can prevent the tablets from splashing;

[0032] The second housing 11 is a triangular housing, and a slicing mechanism is connected to the top of the second housing 11. The slicing mechanism is used for cutting the tablets in half;

[0033] The slicing mechanism includes:

[0034] A bracket 2 fixed to the top of the second housing 11. The inner cavity of the bracket 2 is provided with a lifting plate 22. A cutting knife 26 is connected to the bottom of the lifting plate 22. The cutting knife 26 is placed on the center line of the second housing 11. A push rod 21 is fixed to the top of the lifting plate 22. The push rod 21 movably penetrates through the bracket 2 and is fixedly connected to a pressing block 25. A spring 23 for resetting is sleeved on the outer wall of the push rod 21. The two ends of the spring 23 are respectively fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the bracket 2 and the top of the lifting plate 22;

[0035] It should be understood that when cutting the tablet, a single tablet is introduced into the first housing 1 from the medicine bottle, and then the first housing 1 is tilted so that the tablet moves into the included angle of the second housing 11, thereby centering the tablet. Then, pressing the pressing block 25 can drive the lifting plate 22 to descend, so that the cutting knife 26 descends to cut the tablet in half, improving the convenience of operation, and preventing the tablet from splashing elsewhere and being lost. At the same time, centering cutting ensures accurate cutting in half, and there is no need to touch the tablet by hand to avoid contamination. After the tablet cutting is completed, the spring 23 drives the lifting plate 22 to lift and reset, facilitating reuse;

[0036] Furthermore, limit rods 24 are fixed on both sides of the top of the lifting plate 22. The limit rods 24 movably penetrate through the bracket 2. The arrangement of the limit rods 24 makes the lifting and lowering of the lifting plate 22 highly stable;

[0037] Even further, a rubber pad is fixed on the top of the pressing block 25. The arrangement of the rubber pad protects the hand when pressing the pressing block 25 and prevents the pressing block 25 from causing harm to the hand;

[0038] As Figure 1 and 2 shown; a through hole 12 is provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of the first housing 1, and a material guiding hopper 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first housing 1 corresponding to the through hole 12. After the tablet is cut in half, the device is tilted in the reverse direction, so that the tablet moves towards one end of the first housing 1, so that the tablet enters the through hole 12, and then is discharged through the material guiding hopper 13 into the collecting medicine bottle;

[0039] Furthermore, material guiding plates 14 are fixed on both side walls of the inner cavity of the first housing 1. The arrangement of the material guiding plates 14 can accurately guide the tablet into the through hole 12 when the tablet moves towards one side of the first housing 1, further improving the convenience of operation.

[0040] The implementation principle of a tablet cutting device of the present application is as follows: when cutting the tablet, a single tablet is introduced into the first housing 1 from the medicine bottle, and then the first housing 1 is tilted so that the tablet moves into the included angle of the second housing 11, thereby centering the tablet. Then, pressing the pressing block 25 can drive the lifting plate 22 to descend, so that the cutting knife 26 descends to cut the tablet in half, improving the convenience of operation, and preventing the tablet from splashing elsewhere and being lost. At the same time, centering cutting ensures accurate cutting in half, and there is no need to touch the tablet by hand to avoid contamination. After the tablet cutting is completed, the spring 23 drives the lifting plate 22 to lift and reset, facilitating reuse. After the tablet is cut in half, the device is tilted in the reverse direction, so that the tablet moves towards one end of the first housing 1, so that the tablet enters the through hole 12, and then is discharged through the material guiding hopper 13 into the collecting medicine bottle.
