[0029] 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. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 In an embodiment of the present utility model, a medicine cutter includes a medicine box 1, a cutting box 2 for cutting medicine is slidably installed laterally inside the medicine box 1, a medicine storage box 3 for storing medicine is provided inside the top of the medicine box 1, and an adjustment mechanism 4 is provided on the medicine box 1;

[0031] The adjustment mechanism 4 includes a half-cutting unit and a quarter-cutting unit;

[0032] The bisection unit is used to cut the tablets in half;

[0033] The quartering unit is used to cut the tablet into four equal parts;

[0034] The bisection cutting unit includes a rotating block 401, a first guide slot 402, a first movable rod 403, a spring 404, and a first cutter 405;

[0035] The rotating block 401 is provided on the inner wall of the top end of the medicine box 1 and extends to the outside of the top end of the medicine box 1. The rotating block 401 is used to give the first movable rod 403 a thrust to move downward.

[0036] The first guide groove 402 is formed on the inner wall of the rotating block 401 and is used to provide space for the first movable rod 403 to enter;

[0037] The first movable rod 403 is vertically slidably installed inside the medicine box 1, and the first movable rod 403 is used to push the first cutter 405 to move synchronously;

[0038] The two ends of the spring 404 are respectively clamped on the inner wall of the medicine box 1 and the outer wall of the first movable rod 403. The spring 404 is used to always provide an upward thrust for the first movable rod 403.

[0039] The first cutter 405 is fixed to the bottom end of the first movable rod 403, and the first cutter 405 is used to cut the tablets;

[0040] The quartering unit includes a second guide groove 406, a second movable rod 407, and a second cutter 408;

[0041] The second guide groove 406 is formed on the inner wall of the rotating block 401 and is used to provide space for the second movable rod 407 to enter;

[0042] The second movable rod 407 is vertically slidably mounted on the inner wall of the medicine box 1, and the second movable rod 407 is used to push the second cutter 408 to move vertically;

[0043] The second cutter 408 is fixed to the bottom end of the second movable rod 407, and the second cutter 408 is used to cut the tablet into four equal parts.

[0044] In this embodiment, when a tablet needs to be cut into two equal parts, the tablets are taken out from the medicine storage box 3 and placed in the cutting box 2. The rotating block 401 is pressed downward, and the solid side of the first guide groove 402 at the bottom end of the rotating block 401 contacts the top of the first movable rod 403, while the second guide groove 406 docks with the second movable rod 407. The second movable rod 407 enters the second guide groove 406 and is not affected by the rotating block 401. Then, the rotating block 401 transmits the moving thrust to the first movable rod 403, causing the first movable rod 403 to push the first cutter 405 downward and apply squeezing force to the spring 404 until the first cutter 405 contacts the tablet inside the cutting box 2. The first cutter 405 is aligned with the center line of the tablet, and the tablet is cut into two equal parts by the first cutter 405.

[0045] When it is necessary to cut the tablet into four equal parts, the rotating block 401 is rotated ninety degrees. The rotating block 401 rotates ninety degrees and simultaneously drives the first guide groove 402 and the second guide groove 406 to rotate, so that the second guide groove 406 is no longer aligned with the second movable rod 407, and the first guide groove 402 will be aligned with the first movable rod 403. Then, when the rotating block 401 is forced to move downward again, the first movable rod 403 will enter the first guide groove 402, and the second movable rod 407 will be forced to move downward to cut the tablet into four equal parts. It should be noted that a slot for placing tablets is provided inside the cutting box 2, and the center line of the slot is aligned with the first cutter 405.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 There are three springs 404, which are respectively sleeved on the outer walls of the second movable rod 407 and the first movable rod 403. The inner side of the first guide groove 402 is semicircular, and the top part of the first movable rod 403 matches the inner side of the first guide groove 402. There are two second guide grooves 406 and the second movable rod 407. The two second guide grooves 406 and the second movable rod 407 are symmetrically distributed inside the rotating block 401 and the medicine box 1. The inner side of the second guide groove 406 matches the outer wall of the second movable rod 407. The first cutter 405 is located in the middle of the second cutter 408, and the inner side of the second cutter 408 is formed with a groove for the vertical movement of the shaft of the first cutter 405.

[0047] In this embodiment: through this structure, when it is necessary to cut the tablets, the first guide groove 402 and the first movable rod 403, and the second guide groove 406 and the second movable rod 407 can be docked by rotating the rotating block 401, so that different cutters can be pushed to move by the rotating block 401 to cut the tablets into different equal parts.

[0048] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
