[0002] Capsule-type drugs are a common way of packaging drugs. When packaging capsule-type drugs, they are usually sealed and stored in bottles or aluminum-plastic plates. When using bottles for packaging, the capsules need to be counted before being put into the bottles to ensure that the number of particles in each bottle is consistent. The traditional counting method is through manual counting or manual packaging, but the packaging efficiency is low and the error rate is high. With the development of science and technology, capsule packaging machines have emerged, but the existing capsule packaging machines are inaccurate in counting and are prone to drug jams during drug diversion packaging, resulting in low packaging efficiency.

The diversion guide mechanism includes a support frame 10, a receiving tray 1, a guide assembly and a connecting pipe 2. The receiving tray 1 is arranged on the support frame 10, and the transport counting structure and the delivery assembly are arranged in sequence below the receiving tray 1. The interior of the receiving tray 1 is a funnel-shaped structure, and a partition 12 is provided on the receiving tray 1. The partition 12 separates the receiving tray 1 from the middle, and the receiving tray 1 is divided into two relatively independent cavities on the left and right. A through hole 11 is provided on both sides of the partition 12 at the geometric center position of the receiving tray 1. The two through holes 11 are separated by the partition 12. A connecting pipe 2 is provided below the two through holes 11. The diameter of the connecting pipe 2 matches the diameter of the capsule so that the capsule can only pass through the connecting pipe 2 longitudinally; the guide assembly is provided in the through hole 1 1, the guide assembly is used to guide the capsule to enter the connecting tube 2; the transport counting mechanism is arranged below the receiving tray 1 and at the end of the connecting tube 2, and the transport counting mechanism is used to transport the capsule to the position of the delivery assembly; the delivery assembly is used to transport the packaging bottle 9 containing the capsule; the guide assembly includes two sets of relatively independent guide wheels 3 and motors 4, and the receiving tray 1 is provided with a motor 4 and a guide wheel 3 at the position of each through hole 11. The motor 4 is arranged on the outer side wall of the bottom of the receiving tray 1 and is connected to the guide wheel 3.

The photoelectric sensor counter 6 and the first conveyor belt 5 are both connected to an external control host. The photoelectric sensor counter 6 records the data of the capsules passing under it and feeds it back to the control host in real time. The control host controls the start and stop of the first conveyor belt 5 based on the data fed back by the photoelectric sensor counter 6, thereby controlling the number of capsules in each packaging bottle 9. The rest of this embodiment is the same as the above embodiment and will not be repeated here.

[0028] Example 3:

[0029] Based on the above embodiment, this embodiment further defines a feeding assembly, which includes a second conveyor belt 8.

The fixed seats 81 are provided with limiting slots 811, in which the bottles 9 are positioned. The second conveyor belt 8 is also electrically connected to the control host. When a group of bottles 9 moves to directly below the end of the first conveyor belt 5, the control host sends a stop command to the second conveyor belt 8, causing the first conveyor belt 5 to start transporting capsules. Based on feedback from the photoelectric sensor counter 6, after the first conveyor belt 5 stops, the second conveyor belt 8 continues to transport empty bottles 9 to directly below the end of the first conveyor belt 5. The second conveyor belt 8 is connected to an external sealing mechanism to seal the bottles 9. The remaining parts of this embodiment are the same as those of the above embodiment and will not be repeated here.
