DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The following further describes the specific implementation method:
[0022] See Figure 1 、 Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 The present invention relates to a device for counting and packaging western medicines, comprising a medicine dispensing tray 1, a counting tray 2 hingedly connected above the medicine dispensing tray 1 and capable of flipping up and down relative to the medicine dispensing tray 1, and a plurality of counting holes 21 for accommodating individual medicines provided on the counting tray 2, wherein the counting holes 21 are through holes. When in use, the medicines to be packaged are first placed upside down on the counting tray 2, and after the medical staff manually fills the medicines into the counting holes 21, the counting tray 2 is flipped over so that the medicines fall through the counting holes 21 onto the medicine dispensing tray 1, and finally the medicines on the medicine dispensing tray 1 are packaged to complete the packaging. Since the medicines all fall through the counting holes 21, the specific number of the packaged medicines can be obtained based on the number of counting holes. The present invention has a simple structure and is easy to operate, avoids errors that are easy to make during manual counting, and effectively improves the accuracy of the packaging counting and the packaging efficiency.
[0023] In this embodiment, a support base 3, a drug storage cartridge 4, and a dispensing cartridge 5 are also included. The dispensing cartridge 4 facilitates placing drugs inverted on the counting tray 2 and recovering excess drugs. The dispensing cartridge 5 can receive the drugs counted on the drug dispensing tray 1. In this embodiment, the cross-section of the support base 3 is designed to be half a circle, and the cross-sections of the dispensing cartridge 5 and the drug storage cartridge 4 are both designed to be quarter-circular. The cross-section of the support base 3, the dispensing cartridge 5, and the drug storage cartridge 4 after assembly is circular. The support base 3 not only firmly supports the drug dispensing tray 1, but also ensures that the height of the drug dispensing tray 1, the drug storage cartridge 4, and the dispensing cartridge 5 are compatible, thereby ensuring that drugs can be smoothly transferred from the drug dispensing tray 1 to the dispensing cartridge 5. In this design, the cross-section of the support base 3 is designed to be half a circle. This design not only meets the support requirements, but also makes the overall device more coordinated and unified in appearance. Specifically, a side plane of the drug storage cartridge 4 abuts against a side plane of the support base 3, and a side plane of the dispensing cartridge 5 is fixedly connected to a side plane of the support base 3. The medicine tray 1 is adapted to the shape of the support base 3 and the medicine tray 1 is fixed to the support base 3. Since the medicine tray 1 is adapted to the shape of the support base 3, the cross-section of the medicine tray 1 is also in the shape of half a circle. The top of the side plane of the medicine storage barrel 4 is hinged to the plane side of the medicine tray 1. The medicine storage barrel 4 can be flipped relative to the medicine tray 1 to tilt the opening toward the top of the medicine tray 1. The relative movement of the medicine storage barrel 4 and the medicine tray 1 is achieved through the hinged connection, thereby achieving the smooth transfer of medicines. The packaging barrel 5 is provided on the plane side of the medicine tray 1 to receive medicines that fall from the medicine tray 1. For ease of use, the packaging barrel 5 and the support base 3 are designed as an integrated structure, which not only simplifies the installation steps during use, but also improves the stability and reliability of the entire device.
[0024] When dispensing medicine, the medicine storage cartridge 4 is first turned over to pour the medicine stored therein out from the opening. In order to enable the medicine storage cartridge 4 to turn over, a specific hinge method is to provide a hinge groove 12 on the outer side of the medicine dispensing plate 1, and hinge holes 121 are provided at both ends of the hinge groove 12. A hinge member 41 is provided at the position of the medicine storage cartridge 4 corresponding to the hinge groove 12, and both ends of the hinge member 41 are provided with a hinge shaft 411 that is rotatably connected to the hinge hole 121. This design allows the medicine storage cartridge 4 to turn over with the hinge shaft 411 as the axis. In the initial state, the side plane of the drug storage cartridge 4 abuts the side plane of the support base 3. When the drug storage cartridge 4 is flipped, the drug storage cartridge 4 rotates in the hinge hole 121 via the hinge shaft 411, causing the side plane of the drug storage cartridge 4 to gradually move away from the side plane of the support base 3 until the medicine in the drug storage cartridge 4 can slide through the opening of the drug storage cartridge 4 and onto the drug dispensing tray 1. The rotation can then be stopped. When a sufficient amount of medicine is distributed on the drug dispensing tray 1, the drug storage cartridge 4 needs to be reset. The reset process is the reverse process of flipping the drug storage cartridge 4: by reciprocating the drug storage cartridge 4, its side plane is once again abutted against the side plane of the support base 3. In this way, the drug storage cartridge 4 returns to its initial stable state, ready for the next drug dispensing.
[0025] Please continue to see Figure 4 as well as Figure 5Because the counting disc 2 is located above the medicine dispensing disc 1, the medicine in the medicine storage barrel 4 will first be scattered on the counting disc 2 after being poured out. The counting disc 2 is an arc shape that matches the shape of the medicine dispensing disc 1. In order to prevent the medicine from scattering during the process of pouring the medicine from the medicine storage barrel 4, an upwardly protruding first baffle 23 is provided on the side of the counting disc 2 close to the dispensing barrel 5. At the same time, an upwardly protruding second baffle 13 is provided on the side of the medicine dispensing disc 1 away from the dispensing barrel 5 and the medicine storage barrel 4. The first baffle 23 can prevent the medicine from falling directly into the dispensing barrel 5, thereby ensuring that the medicine can be accurately filled into the counting hole 21; the second baffle 13 can prevent the medicine from falling outside the medicine dispensing disc 1 during the pouring or turning process, thereby avoiding medicine waste and contamination. At this time, the medical staff can match the medicines poured out from the medicine storage barrel 4 with the counting holes 21 on the counting disk 2 one by one. After the medicines are filled into each counting hole 21, since the medicine storage barrel 4 has been reset at this time, the medical staff can manually clean the excess medicines back into the medicine storage barrel 4 so that they can be repacked later. After the medicines are matched one by one with the counting holes 21, the counting disk 2 is turned over, and the medicines in the counting holes 21 will fall onto the medicine distribution disk 1. In order to enable the counting disk 2 to be turned over, a hinge seat 11 is provided on the side wall of the medicine distribution disk 1, and a rotating shaft 22 is provided at the position of the counting disk 2 corresponding to the hinge seat 11, and the rotating shaft 22 is rotatably connected to the hinge seat 11. Specifically, the hinge seat 11 is provided on the second baffle 13, and the rotating shaft 22 is provided on the arcuate edge of the counting disk 2. When it is necessary to rotate the counting disk 2, the medical staff can lift the counting disk 2 through the first baffle 23, which also serves as a handle. After the counting disk 2 flips around the hinged seat 11, the medicines originally placed in the counting holes 21 will fall onto the medicine dispensing disk 1. At this time, the number of medicines on the medicine dispensing disk 1 is consistent with the number of counting holes 21, so the number of medicines in a single package can be clearly determined. Medical staff can now manually sweep the medicines on the medicine dispensing disk 1 into the packaging cylinder 5 to complete a single package. Since the number of counting holes 21 is fixed, the number of medicines in each package can also be kept consistent, thus avoiding the occurrence of counting errors. Of course, when dispensing different quantities of medicines, the counting holes 21 are not necessarily all filled. When the number of dispensing medicines is less than the number of counting holes 21, only the corresponding number of counting holes 21 need be filled.
[0026] In order to facilitate the removal of the medicines in the sub-packaging tube 5 for packaging, a drawer groove 51 is provided on the outside of the sub-packaging tube 5, and a pull-out box 6 for receiving the medicines is slidably mounted in the drawer groove 51. The size and shape of the drawer groove 51 need to match the pull-out box 6 to ensure that the pull-out box 6 can slide in and out stably. In the present embodiment, the outer wall of the pull-out box 6 fits the inner wall of the sub-packaging tube 5, so when the medicines on the medicine tray 1 fall into the sub-packaging tube 5, they will directly fall into the pull-out box 6. Therefore, medical staff can directly take out the pull-out box 6 and package the sub-packaging medicines. After packaging is completed, the medical staff can push the pull-out box 6 back into the drawer groove 51 to carry out the next sub-packaging operation, which is more convenient and quicker, and does not require the sub-packaging tube 5 to be dumped each time.
[0027] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: first, the medicine storage cartridge is flipped so that the medicine in the medicine storage cartridge is placed upside down on the counting disk, and then the medicine storage cartridge is reset. After the medicines enter the counting holes one by one, the excess medicines are manually returned to the medicine storage cartridge. After the medicines correspond to the counting holes one by one, the counting disk is flipped, and the medicines in the counting holes will fall onto the medicine dispensing disk. Finally, the medicines on the medicine dispensing disk are manually pushed into the dispensing cylinder. Since a pull-out box is slidably connected to the dispensing cylinder, when the medicines fall into the pull-out box, the pull-out box is taken out and packaged to complete one dispensing. Since the number of counting holes 21 is fixed, the number of medicines dispensed each time can also be kept consistent, thereby avoiding the occurrence of counting errors, avoiding the time-consuming and error-prone shortcomings of manual counting, and effectively improving the accuracy of counting.
[0028] The above are merely examples of the present invention, and the well-known specific structures and characteristics of the scheme are not described in detail here. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the structure of the present invention, and these modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention. These modifications and improvements will not affect the effectiveness of the implementation of the present invention and the practicality of the present invention.
