Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical auxiliary instruments, in particular to a tablet cutter. Background Art
[0002] When children are sick, they need to take medicine. The doctor's instructions are not to swallow the medicine whole. Children cannot swallow tablets, and the dosage of medicine for children is relatively small. Therefore, the tablets need to be cut to accurately extract the correct dosage.
[0003] A tablet cutter is a tool used to accurately divide tablets into required doses. Its working principle is mainly based on the principles of mechanical mechanics. It achieves stable clamping and precise division of tablets through the design of a reasonably designed clamping structure and cutting mechanism. When in use, the user places the tablets to be divided in the cutter's clamping tray. The clamping tray cooperates with the adjusting tray through its internal clamping structure to stably clamp the tablets and prevent them from moving or slipping during the cutting process. According to the actual number and size of tablets to be divided, the user can adjust the cutter's cutting parameters, such as cutting position, cutting depth, etc., through the adjusting tray or other adjustment mechanisms, to ensure that the cut tablets are accurate in dosage and regular in shape.
[0004] However, the tablet cutters in the prior art are usually equipped with a fixed number of blades, which limits the flexibility of the cutting amount. Since the number of blades is fixed, the amount of tablets cut is also fixed accordingly. Some children cannot swallow tablets, and the dosage of medicine for children is also very small. When the doctor's instructions are not to swallow the whole tablet, how can pediatric babies accurately extract the correct dosage? The current pill cutters cannot flexibly control the dosage and are difficult to meet the needs of different patients. After the blades cut the tablets, there is often residual medicine residue on them, which is difficult to clean thoroughly, affecting the cutting effect and hygiene conditions for the next use. Utility Model Content
[0005] Based on this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a tablet cutter to solve the problem that the tablet cutters in the prior art are usually equipped with a fixed number of blades, which limits the flexibility of the cutting amount.

[0030] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0031] The following describes an embodiment of the present invention based on its overall structure.
[0032] The utility model is specially designed for pediatrics, because many children cannot swallow pills, especially small children, so a tablet cutter is designed, which has cutting and grinding functions, such as Figure 1-6 As shown, it includes a medicine holding tray 10, the top of the medicine holding tray 10 is threadedly connected to a cleaning tray 2, a cleaning block 16 is arranged in the cleaning tray 2, the top of the cleaning tray 2 is threadedly connected to a top cover 1, the top cover 1 is movably connected with a first pressure block 8 and a second pressure block 9, the bottom of the first pressure block 8 is snap-connected to a first blade 17, the bottom of the second pressure block 9 is fixedly connected to a connecting rod 15, the bottom of the connecting rod 15 is fixedly connected to a movable ring 14, the bottom of the movable ring 14 is snap-connected to a second blade 18 used in conjunction with the first blade 17, and the component blades between the first blade 17 and the second blade 18 are evenly distributed, a limiting block 13 is arranged in the top cover 1, and the limiting block 13 and the cleaning block 16 are both provided with slots used in conjunction with the first blade 17 and the second blade 18, a clamping structure 19 is arranged in the medicine holding tray 10, and the outer side of the medicine holding tray 10 is rotatably connected to an adjusting disk 3 used in conjunction with the clamping structure 19.
[0033] When in use, parents can first easily remove the cleaning plate 2 to ensure the hygiene of the operating environment, and then put the tablets in the clamping plate 10. Through the cooperation between the clamping structure 19 and the adjusting plate 3, tablets of different specifications can be stably clamped and limited. Then, according to actual use needs, if the tablet is to be divided into three, one group of pressing blocks can be randomly selected and squeezed downward, and the tablet is squeezed and cut by the blade to divide a tablet into three equal parts. At the same time, if the doctor's order requires the tablet to be divided, the parent can selectively press the first pressing block 8 and the second pressing block 9 as needed. When the tablet is divided into six, the first pressing block 8 and the second pressing block 9 are squeezed downward at the same time, so that the first blade 17 and the second blade 18 squeeze and cut the tablet at the same time, thereby dividing the tablet into six. Because the first blade 17 and the second blade 18 are composed of three groups of blades evenly distributed at the bottom of the first blade 17 and the second blade 18 at an angle of 120°, and the angles between the first blade 17 and the second blade 18 are staggered, and the angles between the first blade 17 and the second blade 18 are both 60°, the blade groups are arranged at a specific angle to ensure that each cut can obtain a uniform and accurate portion. After the cutting is completed, the various parts of the tablet can be ground as needed or retained in the medicine storage box 5 until the next use. In actual use, the first pressing block 8 and the second pressing block 9 can be squeezed according to actual use needs. After the tablet is cut, the cleaning disk 2 is reconnected to the bottom of the top cover 1, and the first pressing block 8 and the second pressing block 9 are squeezed at the same time or thereby, so that the first blade 17 and the second blade 18 can contact with the cleaning block 16. The first blade 17 and the second blade 18 are in contact and friction, and the medicine residue on the outside of the first blade 17 and the second blade 18 can be taken away, thereby maintaining the cleanliness of the first blade 17 and the second blade 18, so that the practicality and flexibility of the entire tablet cutter are improved.
[0034] The further arranged convex patterns on the bottom of the medicine grinding block 11 cooperate with the inner barrel 12, so that the medicine can be effectively ground or refined when squeezed or rotated. The outer barrel 4 is convenient for pouring the powder into the outer barrel 4 after the tablets are ground into powder, and then the brewing water is guided into the water storage box 6 through the water storage box 6. Then, through the cooperation between the water inlet 25 and the sealing structure, the water can be controlled to be introduced into the outer barrel 4 in a controlled manner and mixed with the powder. Fixing the water storage box 6 on the outer barrel 4 not only saves space, but also realizes functional integration. The water storage box 6 can be used to store cleaning water or other required liquids, which is convenient for users to use at any time during use. For situations where the whole tablet needs to be ground or only part of the tablet needs to be ground, the tool's built-in high-efficiency medicine grinding block 11 and the convex pattern design on its bottom, combined with the rotation mechanism of the inner barrel 12, can effectively grind the tablets into fine powder. After the grinding is completed, parents can directly pour the medicine powder into the outer barrel 4, and quantitatively introduce warm water through the water storage box 6, and use the ingenious cooperation of the water inlet 25 and the sealing structure to control the water flow to accurately mix into the medicine powder to form a medicine liquid that is easy for the baby to take. The sealing structure includes a support block 23, a pressure plate 21, a spring 22, a movable rod 24, a blocking block 26, and a fixed block 20. The support block 23 is fixed to the outside of the water storage box 6, and the two ends of the movable rod 24 are fixedly connected with a blocking block 26 and a pressure plate 21 respectively. The pressure plate 21 is located outside the water storage box 6, and the spring 22 is fixed between the pressure plate 21 and the support block 23. The blocking block 26 fits in with the water inlet 25. The blocking block 20 is set. 6 fits with the water inlet 25, ensuring that the water inlet 25 is in a completely closed state when not in use, effectively preventing water leakage or evaporation, ensuring the cleanliness of the water quality and stable humidity in the water storage box 6, and the force of the spring 22 is transmitted to the movable rod 24 through the pressure plate 21, so that the blocking block 26 is tightly fitted with the water inlet 25, even under certain external pressure or vibration, it can maintain a stable sealing effect. When in use, by applying external force to the pressure plate 21, the blocking block 26 can be driven to move through the movable rod 24, thereby opening or closing the water inlet 25, so that the water source in the water storage box 6 can enter the outer barrel 4 and mix with the medicine powder.
[0035] In this embodiment, the threaded connection allows the user to easily remove or install the medicine storage box 5 from the outer barrel 4, which is convenient for cleaning, replacing or replenishing medicines. The medicine storage box 5 is used to store the cut but unground tablet parts, which are convenient for continued use in the next meal, keeping the medicine fresh and effective, and improving the convenience of use. The snap-fit design makes the opening and closing of the sealing cover 7 simple and quick. The scale on the outside of the water storage box 6 is conducive to precise control of the water volume, so that the medicine powder can better exert its efficacy. Finally, when the cleaning block 16 is made of sponge material, it can better clean the medicine residue on the first blade 17 and the second blade 18, and it is also more convenient to clean and replace the cleaning block 16.
