DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0053] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the drawings herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0054] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but rather merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments derived by persons of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are also within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0055] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined or explained in subsequent drawings.

[0056] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer" and the like, indicating orientations or positional relationships, are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, or are the orientations or positional relationships in which the utility model product is typically placed when in use. These terms are intended solely to facilitate the description of this utility model and to simplify the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third," etc., are used solely to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0057] Furthermore, terms such as "horizontal" and "vertical" do not necessarily mean that a component must be absolutely horizontal or overhanging, but rather that it can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical," and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but rather that it can be slightly tilted.

[0058] It should also be noted that, in the description of this utility model, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "disposed," "installed," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections, electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through an intermediate medium, and internal connections between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0059] As described in the background, in the tablet analysis process, in order to obtain precise cross-sections for subsequent testing and evaluation, the tablet must first be cut to generate two parallel surfaces. Currently, there is no specialized equipment for tablet cutting in the industry. The typical practice is to use conventional fixtures to secure the tablet and conventional cutting equipment to cut the tablet.

[0060] However, due to the small size of tablets and the difficulty of securing them, precise surface cutting is extremely difficult. Currently, there is no affordable equipment that meets this demand. Furthermore, existing methods require different fixtures to accommodate tablets of different sizes, resulting in low slicing efficiency and high costs.

[0061] Based on this, please refer to Figures 1-10The present invention provides a tablet slicing fixture 100 and tablet slicer 1000 that effectively address the aforementioned technical issues. Specifically, they can stably clamp and secure tablets, facilitating precise surface cutting. Furthermore, they can accommodate tablets of varying sizes, improving slicing efficiency and reducing costs. The tablet slicing fixture 100 and tablet slicer 1000 are described in detail below.

[0062] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 The structural diagram of the tablet slicer 1000 provided in this embodiment is combined with Figure 1 The tablet slicing machine 1000 includes a body 200, a slicing tool 300, a tablet slicing fixture 100 and a driving device 400. The slicing tool 300 is arranged on the body 200, and the tablet slicing fixture 100 is arranged on the body 200; the driving device 400 is arranged on the body 200 and is used to drive the tablet slicing fixture 100 to move toward the slicing tool 300 so that the slicing tool 300 cuts the tablet on the tablet slicing fixture 100.

[0063] That is, the tablet slicing fixture 100 is movable relative to the body 200. By fixing the slicing cutter 300 to the body 200 and using the drive device 400 to drive the tablet slicing fixture 100 toward the slicing cutter 300, the tablet clamped in the tablet slicing fixture 100 comes into contact with the slicing cutter 300. Under the reciprocating motion of the drive device 400, the surface of the tablet can be cut by the slicing cutter 300, thereby obtaining the plane required for tablet analysis. By providing the tablet slicing fixture 100, the tablet can be stably clamped and fixed. Moreover, by using the drive device 400 to drive the tablet slicing fixture 100 toward the slicing cutter 300, the slicing cutter 300 fixed to the body can be used to cut the tablet surface, thereby achieving precise cutting of the tablet surface, convenient operation, and high slicing efficiency.

[0064] It should be noted that the overall structure of the tablet slicer 1000 provided in this embodiment is the same as that of the paraffin slicer. The fixing method of the slicing tool 300 and the working principle of the drive device 400 driving the clamp are the same. That is, the way the paraffin slicer slices paraffin is the same as the way the tablet slicer 1000 of this embodiment slices tablets. It is easy to understand that this embodiment replaces the sample clamp in the paraffin slicer with the tablet slicing clamp 100. Through this application innovation, the slicing principle of the paraffin slicer is utilized to achieve tablet section processing, thereby achieving stable clamping of the tablet, thereby enabling precise cutting of the tablet surface and improving tablet slicing efficiency.

[0065] In addition, it should be noted that the drive device 400 provided in this embodiment is the same as the drive device in the paraffin slicer. Specifically, the drive device can include a vertical slide frame, a rotating shaft, a turntable, and a connecting rod. The tablet slicing clamp 100 is arranged on the vertical slide frame. It is easy to understand that the vertical slide frame can drive the tablet slicing clamp 100 to slide up and down. Specifically, by rotating the handle on the turntable, the power is then transmitted through the rotating shaft and the connecting rod, and the vertical slide frame is driven to slide up and down relative to the slicing tool 300, thereby achieving the sectioning of the tablet on the clamp. Of course, the drive device can also include a horizontal slide frame, a drive motor, and a screw. The horizontal slide frame can be connected to the vertical slide frame through a guide rail, and then the horizontal slide frame is driven to move horizontally under the action of the drive motor and the screw, thereby driving the vertical slide frame to move horizontally as a whole. In this way, during the tablet slicing process, the horizontal sliding frame can be used as a whole to drive the tablet slicing clamp 100 to move to the appropriate position of the slicing tool 300, and then by rotating the handle on the turntable, the vertical sliding frame can be slid up and down, thereby driving the tablet slicing clamp 100 to move up and down relative to the slicing tool 300. In this way, the tablet on the clamp can be cut by the slicing tool 300.

[0066] Of course, in some other embodiments, the driving method and specific structure of the driving device are not limited thereto, as long as they can cooperate with the slicing tool 300 and the tablet slicing fixture 100 to achieve precise cutting of tablets.

[0067] Further, in order to facilitate the installation and removal of the tablet slicing fixture 100, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a partial structural diagram of the tablet slicer 1000 provided in this embodiment, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 2 The tablet slicing machine 1000 further includes a mounting seat 500 , which is disposed on the machine body 200 , the tablet slicing fixture 100 is detachably connected to the mounting seat 500 , and the driving device 400 is used to drive the mounting seat 500 to move.

[0068] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the tablet slicing fixture 100 is detachably connected to the mounting base 500 by means of a bolt connection. Of course, in other embodiments, other detachable connection methods such as a snap connection or a magnetic connection may also be used.

[0069] Please continue to combine Figure 2Specifically, the tablet slicing fixture 100 includes a first clamping member 10, a second clamping member 20, and an adjusting member 30. The first clamping member 10 is provided with a plurality of first clamping portions, and the second clamping member 20 is provided with a plurality of second clamping portions. The plurality of second clamping portions are used to clamp and cooperate with the plurality of first clamping portions to form a clamp for tablets of at least two shapes or sizes. The adjusting member 30 is connected to both the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 and is used to adjust the distance between the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 to achieve clamping or loosening of the tablet. In other words, by adjusting the distance between the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 by the adjusting member 30, the tablet can be clamped or loosened. Moreover, by providing a plurality of second clamping portions to clamp and cooperate with the plurality of first clamping portions, tablets of multiple shapes or sizes can be sliced simultaneously, thereby adapting to multiple different tablets, thereby improving slicing efficiency and reducing costs.

[0070] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 For the tablet slicing fixture 100 used in a paraffin slicer, in some other embodiments, the tablet slicing fixture may also include a first clamping member, a second clamping member, and an adjusting member, wherein the first clamping member is provided with at least one first clamping portion, the second clamping member is provided with at least one second clamping portion, and the at least one first clamping portion is correspondingly clamped and matched with the at least one second clamping portion; the adjusting member is connected to the first clamping member and the second clamping member at the same time, and is used to adjust the distance between the first clamping member and the second clamping member to achieve clamping or loosening of the tablet. It is easy to understand that in some other embodiments, only one first clamping portion and one second clamping portion may be provided for corresponding clamping and matching.

[0071] It should be noted that the types of tablets mainly include circular tablets 001 and oval tablets 002. In order to better position, clamp and cut the above two types of tablets, please refer to Figure 3-Figure 6 , Figure 3 This is an exploded view of the tablet slicing fixture 100 provided in the first embodiment. Figure 4 This is a schematic structural diagram of the circular tablet 001 provided in this embodiment. Figure 5 The exploded view of the tablet slicing fixture 100 provided in the second embodiment is as follows: Figure 6 The schematic diagram of the structure of the oval tablet 002 provided in this embodiment is easy to understand. Figure 3 The first tablet slicing fixture 100 is used to clamp a circular tablet 001. Figure 5 The second tablet slicing fixture 100 is used to clamp an oval tablet 002 .

[0072] Combine Figure 4Circular tablet 001 can be understood as being similar to a cylindrical tablet. During the tablet cross-section analysis process, all four surfaces of circular tablet 001 can be cross-sectioned. Specifically, surfaces A1 and A2 of circular tablet 001 are cut to produce a set of relatively parallel surfaces. Similarly, by changing the orientation of circular tablet 001, surfaces B1 and B2 can be cut to produce another set of relatively parallel surfaces.

[0073] Combine Figure 6 , the six surfaces of the elliptical tablet 002 can be sectioned. Specifically, by cutting the C1 surface and the C2 surface, a first group of relatively parallel surfaces can be obtained; similarly, by changing the placement direction of the elliptical tablet 002, the D1 surface and the D2 surface can be cut to obtain a second group of relatively parallel surfaces; of course, by changing the placement direction of the elliptical tablet 002 again, the E1 surface and the E2 surface can be cut to obtain a third group of relatively parallel surfaces.

[0074] For further information, please refer to Figure 7-10 , Figure 7 This is a schematic structural diagram of the first clamping member 10 provided in the first embodiment. Figure 8 This is a schematic structural diagram of the second clamping member 20 provided in the first embodiment. Figure 9 This is a schematic structural diagram of the first clamping member 10 provided in the second embodiment. Figure 10 The structural diagram of the second clamping member 20 provided in the second embodiment is combined with Figure 7-10 The multiple first clamping parts include a first supporting part 11 and a second supporting part 12, and the multiple second clamping parts include a first positioning part 21 and a second positioning part 22; the first supporting part 11 is provided with a first supporting groove 111, and the first supporting groove 111 is used to cooperate with the first positioning part 21 to clamp the tablet; the second supporting part 12 is provided with a second supporting groove 121, and the second supporting groove 121 is used to cooperate with the second positioning part 22 to clamp the tablet.

[0075] It should be noted that the first supporting groove 111 is used to cooperate with the first positioning portion 21 to clamp the tablet in one slicing direction; the second supporting groove 121 is used to cooperate with the second positioning portion 22 to clamp the tablet in another slicing direction.

[0076] Please combine Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8Specifically, for the quasi-circular tablet 001, "one slicing placement method" can be understood as: placing the quasi-circular tablet 001 on the first supporting groove 111, adjusting the adjusting member 30 so that it abuts against the first positioning portion 21 and is clamped, so that in this placement method, surface A1 and surface A2 are subjected to a sectioning process. "Another slicing placement method" can be understood as: placing the quasi-circular tablet 001 on the second supporting groove 121, changing the placement direction, adjusting the adjusting member 30 so that it abuts against the second positioning portion 22 and is clamped, so that in this placement method, surface B1 and surface B2 are subjected to a sectioning process.

[0077] Please combine Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 9 and Figure 10 Specifically, for the elliptical tablet 002, "one slicing placement method" can be understood as: placing the elliptical tablet 002 on the first support groove 111, first performing a sectioning process on the C1 and C2 surfaces; then, within the first support groove 111, changing the placement direction of the elliptical tablet 002, and performing a sectioning process on the D1 and D2 surfaces. The "other slicing placement method" can be understood as: placing the elliptical tablet 002 on the second support groove 121, changing the placement direction of the elliptical tablet 002 to a different direction than the placement direction of the elliptical tablet 002 in the first support groove 111, and then performing a sectioning process on the E1 and E2 surfaces.

[0078] In addition, it should be noted that the first support part 11 and the second support part 12 can cut different surfaces of the same tablet. Of course, in some other embodiments, in order to achieve simultaneous cutting of multiple tablets, the number of the first support part 11 and the second support part 12 can also be set to multiple, and the specific number needs to be determined according to the actual cutting design requirements.

[0079] Please combine Figure 7 and Figure 9 Specifically, in both the first and second tablet slicing fixtures 100, the first supporting portion 11 has a first side bevel 112, a second side bevel 113, and a first side plane 114. The first side bevel 112 and the second side bevel 113 are disposed opposite each other, and a first supporting groove 111 is formed between the first side plane 114, the first side bevel 112, and the second side bevel 113. The arrangement of the first side bevel 112, the second side bevel 113, and the first side plane 114 allows the quasi-circular tablet 001 to be supported at three positioning points, thereby improving positioning accuracy and clamping stability.

[0080] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first side inclined surface 112 and the second side inclined surface 113 are symmetrically arranged along the moving direction of the first clamping member 10 or the second clamping member 20 , which can further improve the tablet clamping stability.

[0081] Further, combined with Figure 8 In the first tablet slicing fixture 100, since the circular tablet 001 has an arc-shaped circumferential surface, the side surface of the first positioning portion 21 close to the first supporting portion 11 is a planar structure, thereby realizing a four-point positioning effect on the circular tablet 001 together with the first side inclined surface 112, the second side inclined surface 113 and the first side plane 114.

[0082] And combined Figure 10 Since the oval tablet 002 is in the shape of an elongated strip, in order to better simultaneously position and clamp both ends of the oval tablet 002, the first positioning portion 21 has a third side inclined surface 212 and a fourth side inclined surface 213. The third side inclined surface 212 and the fourth side inclined surface 213 are arranged opposite each other, and a first positioning groove 214 is formed between the third side inclined surface 212 and the fourth side inclined surface 213. The first positioning groove 214 is used to cooperate with the first supporting groove 111. In other words, the oval tablet 002 can be positioned at five points by the third side inclined surface 212, the fourth side inclined surface 213, the first side inclined surface 112, the second side inclined surface 113, and the first side plane 114.

[0083] In this embodiment, the third side slope 212 and the fourth side slope 213 are symmetrically arranged along the moving direction of the first clamping member 10 or the second clamping member 20, which can further improve the tablet clamping stability. Figure 7 and Figure 9 Specifically, the second support portion 12 has a second side plane 122, a third side plane 123 and a bottom plane 124. The second side plane 122 and the third side plane 123 are adjacent to each other and are located on the same side of the bottom plane 124. A second support groove 121 is formed between the bottom plane 124, the second side plane 122 and the third side plane 123. That is, in another placement method, the second side plane 122, the third side plane 123 and the bottom plane 124 can achieve three-point positioning support for the tablet. Further, combined with Figure 8 and Figure 10 The side surface of the second positioning portion 22 close to the second supporting portion 12 is also a plane, thereby achieving a four-point positioning effect on the tablet together with the second side plane 122, the third side plane 123 and the bottom plane 124.

[0084] It should be noted that the difference between the second supporting portion 12 of the first tablet slicing fixture 100 and the second supporting portion 12 of the second tablet slicing fixture 100 is that: Figure 7 The second support portion 12 of the first tablet slicing fixture 100 further includes a fourth side plane 126. The second side plane 122, the third side plane 123, and the fourth side plane 126 are sequentially connected, and the second side plane 122 and the fourth side plane 126 are disposed opposite each other. The provision of the fourth side plane 126 can further improve the positioning and clamping effect of the quasi-circular tablet 001.

[0085] Please continue to combine Figure 7 and Figure 9 Furthermore, the first support portion 11 further includes a first support protrusion 115. The first support protrusion 115 extends toward the first positioning portion 21, and the support surface of the first support protrusion 115 is coplanar with the first side plane 114. The provision of the first support protrusion 115 can provide support and positioning for larger tablets, thereby further improving clamping stability.

[0086] Similarly, combined Figure 7 In the first tablet slicing clamp 100, the second supporting portion 12 further includes a second supporting protrusion 125. The second supporting protrusion 125 extends toward the second positioning portion 22 and is connected to the bottom plane 124, the second side plane 122, and the third side plane 123. The provision of the second supporting protrusion 125 can also provide support and positioning for larger tablets, thereby further improving clamping stability.

[0087] When the quasi-circular tablet 001 is placed in the second support groove 121, in order to accommodate more tablets of different sizes, the second support protrusion 125 is provided with a plurality of limiting steps 1251; it should be noted that the same tablet can also be placed on different limiting steps 1251, thereby obtaining cutting planes of different depths.

[0088] In order to avoid the first supporting protrusion 115 and the second supporting protrusion 125 , in this embodiment, the first positioning portion 21 is provided with a first avoidance hole 211 , which is used to avoid the first supporting protrusion 115 , and the second positioning portion 22 is provided with a second avoidance hole 221 , which is used to avoid the second supporting protrusion 125 .

[0089] It should be noted that the first avoidance hole 211 and the second avoidance hole 221 can be through holes or blind holes.

[0090] Please continue to combine Figure 7 and Figure 9When the tablet is clamped, the tablet will exert pressure on the first side inclined surface 112 and the second side inclined surface 113 and generate stress. In order to release the stress and improve the overall structural strength and stability of the first clamping member 10, the first support portion 11 is further provided with a first release groove 116, which is arranged between the first side inclined surface 112 and the second side inclined surface 113.

[0091] In order to further adapt to tablets of different specifications and sizes, multiple first clamping parts also include a third support part 13, and multiple second clamping parts also include a third positioning part 23; the third support part 13 is provided with a third support groove 131, and the third support groove 131 is used to cooperate with the third positioning part 23 to clamp the tablets; wherein, the size of the third support groove 131 is larger than the size of the first support groove 111.

[0092] It is easy to understand that the difference between the first support groove 111 and the third support groove 131 lies in their different sizes. The first support groove 111 is used to clamp smaller tablets in a "slice placement" situation, while the third support groove 131 is used to clamp larger tablets in a "slice placement" situation. For example, the first support groove 111 can support tablets with a diameter less than or equal to 8 mm, while the third support groove 131 supports tablets with a diameter greater than 8 mm.

[0093] It can be understood that the structures of the first support portion 11 and the third support portion 13 are basically the same. Specifically, the third support portion 13 is provided with a third support groove 131, and has a fifth side inclined surface 132, a sixth side inclined surface 133 and a fifth side plane 134. The fifth side inclined surface 132 and the sixth side inclined surface 133 are symmetrically arranged along the moving direction of the first clamping member 10 or the second clamping member 20, and are located on the same side of the fifth side plane 134. The third support groove 131 is formed between the fifth side plane 134, the fifth side inclined surface 132 and the fifth side inclined surface 132.

[0094] Similarly, the third support portion 13 further includes a third support protrusion 135, which extends toward the third positioning portion 23. The support surface of the third support protrusion 135 is coplanar with the fifth side plane 134. Of course, the third positioning portion 23 may also define a third avoidance hole 231 for engagement with the third support protrusion 135.

[0095] Furthermore, the third supporting portion 13 further defines a second releasing groove 136 . The second releasing groove 136 is disposed between the fifth side inclined surface 132 and the sixth side inclined surface 133 .

[0096] Combine Figure 10Correspondingly, in the second tablet slicing clamp 100, in order to better position and clamp both ends of the elliptical tablet 002 at the same time, the third positioning portion 23 also has a seventh side inclined surface 232 and an eighth side inclined surface 233. The seventh side inclined surface 232 and the eighth side inclined surface 233 are symmetrically arranged along the moving direction of the first clamping member 10 or the second clamping member 20, and a second positioning groove 234 is formed between the seventh side inclined surface 232 and the eighth side inclined surface 233. The second positioning groove 234 is used to cooperate with the third supporting groove 131.

[0097] It should be noted that the "side slope" in the above-mentioned first side slope 112, second side slope 113, third side slope 212, fourth side slope 213, fifth side slope 132, sixth side slope 133, seventh side slope 232 and eighth side slope 233 may not be a plane. For example, it may be an arc surface, or a bent surface formed by multiple surfaces, etc. The main function of the side slope is to cooperate with the edge of the tablet to facilitate better positioning and placement. Its specific shape and structure are not limited in this embodiment.

[0098] Furthermore, please combine Figure 7 and Figure 8 In the first tablet slicing fixture 100, the side of the first positioning portion 21 near the first support groove 111 is flat, the side of the second positioning portion 22 near the second support groove 121 is flat, and the side of the third positioning portion 23 near the third support groove 131 is flat. In other words, when the tablet slicing fixture 100 is normally placed, the bottom of each of the second clamping members is flat. Due to the structural characteristics of the quasi-circular tablet 001, simply setting the bottom of the second clamping member 20 to be flat can cooperate with the first support groove 111, the second support groove 121, and the third support groove 131 to achieve four-point positioning and stable clamping of the quasi-circular tablet 001.

[0099] Of course, for clamping tablets of other shapes, the shape of the bottom of the second clamping member 20 can also be changed according to the situation to better clamp tablets of other specifications and shapes.

[0100] Please combine Figure 3 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, the adjusting member 30 positions the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 in an opposed vertical arrangement, with the first support groove 111 and the second support groove 121 located at the bottom. Of course, in other embodiments, the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 may be positioned in other arrangements, such as in a left-right arrangement; and the first support groove 111 and the second support groove 121 may be located in other positions, such as on the left or right side.

[0101] Specifically, the adjusting member 30 includes an adjusting screw 31, an adjusting nut 32, and a washer 33. One end of the adjusting screw 31 is disposed on the first clamping member 10, and the other end is passed through the second clamping member 20 and is threadedly connected to the adjusting nut 32. The washer 33 is sleeved on the adjusting screw 31 and is located between the adjusting nut 32 and the second clamping member 20. It is easy to understand that by turning the knob to adjust the nut 32, the adjusting screw 31 is driven to move, thereby adjusting the distance between the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 to achieve tablet clamping.

[0102] It should be noted that the adjustment member may also be an adjustment structure driven by a motor push rod, or an adjustment structure driven by other means such as a pneumatic cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder, as long as the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 can be clamped together. In addition, in some embodiments, the movement direction of the first clamping member 10 or the second clamping member 20 may not be linear motion. It is easy to understand that the first clamping member 10 or the second clamping member 20 can be rotated by rotating the rotating shaft driven by a motor, thereby achieving clamping cooperation between the two.

[0103] According to the above description, combined with Figure 3-10 The following describes the clamping methods for the circular tablet 001 and the oval tablet 002:

[0104] Please combine Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 , using the tablet slicing fixture 100 provided in the first embodiment, the circular tablet 001 is clamped: First, the circular tablet 001 is placed on the first supporting groove 111, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 The placement direction is shown, and then the adjusting nut 32 is rotated to clamp the circular tablet 001 through the first positioning portion 21 (the bottom is a flat surface) and the first supporting groove 111; then the A1 surface of the circular tablet 001 is cut, and after the slicing is completed, the tablet is wound around the first positioning portion 21 (the bottom is a flat surface) and the first supporting groove 111. Figure 3 The quasi-circular tablet 001 is rotated 180° in the Z direction and placed on the first support groove 111 to perform sectioning on surface A2. After slicing, the quasi-circular tablet 001 is rotated 180° in the X direction and placed on the second support groove 121. The tablet is clamped between the second positioning portion 22 (with a flat bottom) and the second support groove 121 to complete sectioning on surface B1. The quasi-circular tablet 001 is then rotated 180° in the Z direction to complete sectioning on surface B2.

[0105] Please combine Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 9 and Figure 10, using the tablet slicing fixture 100 provided in the second embodiment, the oval tablet 002 is clamped: first, the oval tablet 002 is placed on the third supporting groove 131 of the third supporting portion 13, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 The oval tablet 002 is then clamped by the second positioning groove 234 of the third positioning portion 23; the C1 surface of the oval tablet 002 is then sectioned. Figure 5 The elliptical tablet 002 is rotated 180° in the Z direction shown in the figure, and the C2 surface is cut on the third support groove 131. After slicing is completed, the elliptical tablet 002 is rotated 90° in the Z direction on the third support groove 131 to cut the D1 surface; after slicing is completed, the elliptical tablet 002 is rotated 180° in the Z direction on the third support groove 131 to complete the cut on the D2 surface. Next, the elliptical tablet 002 is first rotated 90° in the Z direction, then rotated 180° in the X direction, and placed on the second support groove 121 of the second support portion 12. After the elliptical tablet 002 is clamped by the second positioning portion 22 (the bottom is a flat surface), its E1 surface is cut; after slicing is completed, the elliptical tablet 002 is rotated 180° in the Z direction on the second support groove 121 to complete the cut on the E2 surface.

[0106] Furthermore, for cutting the D1 surface and D2 surface of the oval tablet 002, this embodiment also provides another tablet clamping method. Specifically, please continue to combine Figure 9 The first supporting portion 11 also has a first top plane 117 and a second top plane 118, and the first top plane 117 and the second top plane 118 are arranged opposite to each other, and the first top plane 117 is located above the first side inclined surface 112 and connected to each other, and the second top plane 118 is located above the second side inclined surface 113 and connected to each other; and an installation space is formed between the first top plane 117 and the second top plane 118 and the first side plane 114. It is easy to understand that when the elliptical tablet 002 is installed, the first top plane 117, the second top plane 118 and the first side plane 114 jointly support and position the elliptical tablet 002, and at the same time clamp and cooperate with the first positioning portion 21, thereby clamping the C1 surface and the C2 surface of the elliptical tablet 002, and then the D1 surface and the D2 surface can be cut respectively.

[0107] In addition, this embodiment also provides another tablet slicing machine, which includes the tablet slicing fixture 100 mentioned above. It should be noted that the specific structure of the tablet slicing machine is not limited in this embodiment, as long as the tablet slicing fixture 100 can achieve the clamping function and slice tablets.

[0108] In summary, an embodiment of the present invention provides a tablet slicing fixture 100 and a tablet slicing machine 1000. The tablet slicing machine 1000 includes a body 200, a slicing tool 300, a tablet slicing fixture 100, and a driving device 400. The slicing tool 300 is arranged on the body 200, and the tablet slicing fixture 100 is arranged on the body 200; the driving device 400 is arranged on the body 200, and is used to drive the tablet slicing fixture 100 to move toward the slicing tool 300, so that the slicing tool 300 performs a cutting process on the tablet on the tablet slicing fixture 100. That is, the tablet slicing fixture 100 is movable relative to the body 200. By fixing the slicing cutter 300 to the body 200 and using the drive device 400 to drive the tablet slicing fixture 100 toward the slicing cutter 300, the tablet clamped in the tablet slicing fixture 100 comes into contact with the slicing cutter 300. Under the reciprocating motion of the drive device 400, the surface of the tablet can be cut by the slicing cutter 300, thereby obtaining the plane required for tablet analysis. By providing the tablet slicing fixture 100, the tablet can be stably clamped and fixed. Moreover, by using the drive device 400 to drive the tablet slicing fixture 100 toward the slicing cutter 300, the slicing cutter 300 fixed to the body can be used to cut the tablet surface, thereby achieving precise cutting of the tablet surface, convenient operation, and high slicing efficiency.

[0109] The tablet slicing fixture 100 includes a first clamping member 10, a second clamping member 20, and an adjusting member 30. The first clamping member 10 is provided with a plurality of first clamping portions, and the second clamping member 20 is provided with a plurality of second clamping portions. The plurality of second clamping portions are used to clamp and cooperate with the plurality of first clamping portions to form a clamp for tablets of at least two shapes or sizes. The adjusting member 30 is connected to both the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 and is used to adjust the distance between the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 to achieve clamping or loosening of the tablet. In other words, the adjustment member 30 can adjust the distance between the first clamping member 10 and the second clamping member 20 to clamp or loosen the tablet. Moreover, by providing the plurality of second clamping portions to clamp and cooperate with the plurality of first clamping portions, tablets of multiple shapes or sizes can be sliced simultaneously. Of course, multiple different surfaces of the same tablet can also be clamped and fixed separately before being cut, thereby adapting to multiple different tablets, thereby improving slicing efficiency and reducing costs.
