[0030] Hereinafter, only certain exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, the described embodiments may be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of the present application. Therefore, the drawings and description are to be regarded as illustrative in nature and not restrictive.
[0031] Example 1:
[0032] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a medicine delivery device for a medicine dispensing cabinet, comprising: a medicine dispensing cabinet body 1, wherein the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1 has a medicine rack 2 for storing medicines; a medicine dispensing tray 3, arranged on the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1 and located below the medicine rack 2; a medicine delivery tray 4, having a first end 41 and a second end 42, the second end 42 being hinged to the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1, and the second end 42 being located above one side of the medicine dispensing tray 3, and the medicines on the medicine rack 2 are transported to the medicine dispensing tray 3 through the medicine delivery tray 4; a medicine delivery drive mechanism 5, arranged on the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1, and the medicine delivery drive mechanism 5 is connected to the first end 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4, and the medicine delivery drive mechanism 5 drives the first end 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4 to move up and down relative to the second end 42.
[0033] When the medicine delivery device of the medicine dispensing cabinet of the present embodiment is in use, when it is necessary to take medicine placed on the medicine rack 2, the first end portion 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4 is driven by the medicine delivery drive mechanism 5 to move upward relative to the second end portion 42, and the medicine falls directly onto the medicine delivery tray 4 when it falls, and automatically slides onto the medicine dispensing tray 3. The medicine delivery device of the medicine dispensing cabinet of the present embodiment of the application, because the medicine delivery drive mechanism 5 can drive the first end portion 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4 to move up and down relative to the second end portion 42, enables the medicine delivery tray 4 to be tilted relative to the medicine rack 2, shortens the distance that the medicine falls to the medicine delivery tray 4, and allows the medicine to safely and stably enter the medicine dispensing tray 3 along the medicine delivery tray 4, thereby preventing damage to the medicine placed on the medicine rack 2 due to collision when it falls.
[0034] To achieve the hinged connection between the second end 42 of the medicine delivery tray 4 and the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1, a hinge shaft 6 is provided on the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1. The second end 42 of the medicine delivery tray 4 is hingedly connected to the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1 via the hinge shaft 6. Since the second end 42 of the medicine delivery tray 4 is hingedly connected to the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1 via the hinge shaft 6, the second end 42 of the medicine delivery tray 4 can rotate relative to the hinge shaft 6.
[0035] To drive the first end 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4 up and down relative to the second end 42, the medicine delivery drive mechanism 5 of this embodiment includes a drive motor, a turntable 51, and a wire rope 52. The drive motor is mounted on the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1, and the turntable 51 is connected to and rotated by the output shaft of the drive motor. One end of the wire rope 52 is mounted on the turntable 51 and is retracted or extended as the turntable 51 rotates. The other end of the wire rope 52 is connected to the first end 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4.
[0036] When the first end 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4 needs to be moved up and down, the drive motor is activated, and the output shaft of the drive motor drives the turntable 51 to rotate. As the wire rope 52 retracts with the rotation of the turntable 51, the wire rope 52 drives the first end 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4 to move upward relative to the second end 42. Because the second end 42 of the medicine delivery tray 4 is hinged to the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1 via the hinge shaft 6, after the first end 41 moves upward, the first end 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4 is tilted upward relative to the second end 42. As the wire rope 52 extends with the rotation of the turntable 51, the wire rope 52 drives the first end 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4 to move downward relative to the second end 42. After the first end 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4 moves upward relative to the second end 42, the medicines on the upper portion of the medicine rack 2 can be dropped onto the medicine delivery tray 4. When the first end 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4 moves downward relative to the second end 42, the medicines on the lower portion of the medicine rack 2 can be dropped onto the medicine delivery tray 4.
[0037] In order to facilitate the medicines that fall onto the medicine delivery tray 4 to slide along the medicine delivery tray 4 to the medicine dispensing tray 3, when the wire rope 52 drives the first end 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4 to move downward to the lowest point relative to the second end 42, the first end 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4 is always kept tilted upward relative to the second end 42, thereby preventing the medicines that fall onto the medicine delivery tray 4 from being unable to slide onto the medicine dispensing tray 3.
[0038] In order to reduce the friction between the medicine and the medicine delivery tray 4 so that the medicine can slide smoothly onto the medicine dispensing tray 3 , the surface of the medicine delivery tray 4 is set to be a smooth surface.
[0039] Furthermore, the medicine delivery drive mechanism 5 also includes a fixed pulley 53, which is rotatably connected to the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1. The other end of the wire rope 52 passes through the fixed pulley 53 and is connected to the first end portion 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4. Preferably, the drive motor, the turntable 51, and the fixed pulley 53 are all disposed on the upper portion of the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1.
[0040] In one embodiment, to connect the wire rope 52 to the first end 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4, a connecting plate 43 is provided on the first end 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4. The connecting plate 43 has a connecting hole. A connecting buckle 54 is connected to the wire rope 52 and is connected to the connecting plate 43 through the connecting hole. The connecting buckle 54 can be any commonly used buckle, as long as it can achieve a secure connection with the connecting plate 43.
[0041] If the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1 is relatively large, the medicine dispensing tray 3 can be positioned in the lower center of the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1, with medicine racks 2 provided on both sides of the medicine dispensing tray 3. In this case, two medicine delivery trays 4 and two medicine delivery drive mechanisms 5 can be provided, with the two medicine delivery trays 4 positioned on opposite sides of the medicine dispensing tray 3, and the two medicine delivery drive mechanisms 5 connected to the first ends 41 of the two medicine delivery trays 4. The two medicine delivery drive mechanisms 5 respectively drive the first ends 41 of the two medicine delivery trays 4 up and down, allowing medicines on both sides of the medicine dispensing tray 3 to slide along the medicine delivery trays 4 and onto the medicine dispensing tray 3.
[0042] In one embodiment, the medicine dispensing tray 3 has a tray bottom plate 31, a first side plate 32, a second side plate 33 and a third side plate 34. The first side plate 32 and the second side plate 33 are respectively connected to the opposite sides of the tray bottom plate 31, and the third side plate 34 is connected to the other side of the tray bottom plate 31. The third side plate 34 is respectively connected to the first side plate 32 and the second side plate 33.
[0043] A plurality of movable casters 7 are provided at the bottom of the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1 , and the medicine dispensing cabinet body 1 is moved by the movable casters 7 .
[0044] When in use, the medicine delivery device of the medicine dispensing cabinet of this embodiment can be driven by the medicine delivery drive mechanism 5 to move the first end 41 of the medicine delivery tray 4 up and down relative to the second end 42, thereby tilting the medicine delivery tray 4. This reduces the distance that medicines fall onto the medicine delivery tray 4, changes the direction of force applied to the medicines during the drop process, and reduces damage to the medicines. After falling onto the medicine delivery tray 4, the medicines automatically slide onto the medicine dispensing tray 3, eliminating the need for a conveyor belt or other means of transport, reducing the number of actuators and improving reliability.
