[0046] The present invention relates to a pill stripping machine with an automatic equalizing positioning linkage mechanism. The pill stripping machine places a pill plate 28 in a pill feeding mechanism. An image sensor captures an image of the pill plate and transmits the data to a controller in the pill stripping machine. The controller processes the captured image, identifies the image, and calculates the spacing between each row of pills. The controller then issues a command to control a first drive motor, causing the compressed pills to automatically equalize and adjust their spacing. The image sensor captures images of the compressed pills in real time and transmits the data to the controller in the pill stripping machine. The controller processes the captured image and identifies the image. When the spacing between the compressed pills and the spacing between each row of pills is detected to be the same, the first drive motor stops, the second drive motor starts, and the pill pressing cylinder, driven by the second drive motor, begins rotating. The pill plate 28 is then fed between the compressed pill plate and the pressing cylinder, pressing the pills together and peeling the pills. Compared to existing technologies, the present invention has the advantages of automatically identifying the spacing between tablets in the pill plate 28 and automatically adjusting the position of the compressed pills, resulting in more accurate and faster pill stripping.

[0074] The gears include a driving gear 18 that cooperates with the first driving motor 12, a second driven gear 16 that cooperates with the ball screw, and a first driven gear 17 located between the driving gear 18 and the second driven gear 16. The outer surfaces of the three gears are engaged with each other. The first driving motor 12 is turned on to drive the driving gear 18 to rotate, which is transmitted to the first driven gear 17, driving the second driven gear 16 to transmit the transmission. The rotation of the second driven gear 16 drives the ball screw 6 to rotate, so that the nut 11 drives the outermost movable base 10 to move. The movable bases 10 are evenly moved by the telescopic connecting rod unit 8 (the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod in each telescopic connecting rod unit 8 are the same), so that each compressed tablet 14 is moved to the corresponding position.

[0075] The gear set is located between the partition 23 and the first side plate 22. A rotatable shaft 19 is set at the corresponding gear position between the partition 23 and the first side plate 22.

Specifically, the driving gear 18, the second driven gear 16, and the first driven gear 17 are each connected to a corresponding shaft 19. The first drive motor 12 and the ball screw 6 pass through the partition 23 and are connected to the corresponding shafts 19 through bearings.

[0076] The main body of the medicine stripping machine further includes an operating table 26 , both ends of which can be fixedly connected to the partition 23 and the second side plate 25 . The operating table 26 is close to the medicine pressing workspace, and the clip 2 is arranged on the operating table 26 .

[0077] The medicine delivery mechanism includes two relatively movable clips 2 for clamping the medicine plate 28, and a knob 4 is provided on the clip 2. By rotating the knob 4 on the two clips 2, the two clips 2 can be moved toward each other or relative to each other. The two clips 2 are on the same line, which is parallel to the axis of the medicine pressing roller, and a scale is provided between the two clips 2. The method of achieving the movement of the two clips 2 toward or relative to each other by rotating the knobs 4 on the two clips 2 is as follows: there is a groove in the middle of each clip 2 for accommodating the edge of the medicine plate 28, the knob 4 passes through the clip 2, and the knob 4 is connected to the clip 2 by a thread, and the bottom of the knob 4 abuts against the guide groove 27 on the surface of the operating table 26. By rotating the knob 4, the depth of the knob 4 inserted into the guide groove 27 can be adjusted, and the bottom of the knob 4 presses the surface of the guide groove 27 to achieve positioning. During positioning, the edge of the medicine plate 28 abuts against the side of the knob 4, and the edge of the medicine plate 28 is perpendicular to the medicine pressing roller 21. The clip 2 only positions the edge of the medicine plate 28 in a direction parallel to the medicine pressing roller 21, and does not limit the position perpendicular to the direction of the medicine pressing roller 21. The medicine plate 28 can approach or move away from the medicine pressing roller 21.

[0078] The pill stripping machine also includes a pill collection box 1 for collecting peeled tablets, an empty pill board collection box 13 for collecting discarded pill boards 28, and a guide plate 15 for transporting discarded pill boards 28. The pill collection box is located directly below the pill stripping mechanism, and the empty pill board collection box 13 is located directly below the movable base. The guide plate is fixedly mounted below the pill pressing workspace and can be tilted. Its upper portion is positioned below the pill pressing workspace to receive discarded pill boards 28 that fall from above. Its lower portion can be connected to the base plate 24 and is positioned opposite the empty pill board collection box 13 so that discarded pill boards 28 that fall slide down the guide plate 15 and fall into the empty pill board collection box 13.

[0079] The second drive motor 20 includes a second drive motor body and an output shaft of the second drive motor connected to the second drive motor body. One end of the medicine pressing roller 21 is connected to the output shaft of the second drive motor. The second drive motor body is fixedly connected to the first side plate 22.

[0080] The outer surfaces of the medicine pressing roller 21 and the medicine pressing tablet 14 are provided with textures.

[0081] The specific working steps and principles of this embodiment are:

[0082] Install the medicine plate 28 between the clips 2, and make the first row of tablets and one side edge of the clip 2 on one side close to and align with the 0 scale line, tighten the knob 4 so that the clip 2 limits the medicine plate 28, and the other side clip 2 moves and limits the other side of the medicine plate 28.

[0083] The compressed tablet 14 is moved to the specified position by the driving member, and then the second driving motor 20 causes the compressed medicine roller 21 to start rotating. The compressed medicine enters the medicine stripping mechanism through the surface friction of the compressed medicine roller 21. The medicine plate 28 is between the compressed medicine roller 21 and the compressed medicine tablet 14. The stripped medicine particles fall into the medicine particle collection box 1 from the gap between adjacent compressed medicine tablets 14, and the discarded medicine plates 28 enter the empty medicine plate collection box 13 through the guide plate 15.

[0084] The staff can continuously put the same type of medicine plate 28 into the machine to continuously peel off the medicine. If different types of tablets are to be peeled off, they can be repositioned.
