[0002] Eye drops are a type of sterile liquid preparation such as a clear solution or suspension made from drugs and excipients. They are mainly used to prevent, treat or diagnose eye diseases. They can have bactericidal, anti-inflammatory, mydriatic, miotic and anesthetic effects on the eyes.

[0003] A Chinese patent (publication number: CN216377436U) discloses an automatic filling device for pranoprofen eye drops, which includes a workbench, a work box, a pre-placement table and a finished product table. The work box is fixedly connected to the bottom of the workbench, the pre-placement table is fixedly connected to the right side of the workbench, and the finished product table is fixedly connected to the left side of the workbench. A placement component is provided on the top of the workbench, and the placement component includes a placement block, a card plate, a perforation, an inner groove, a container and a support plate. The placement block is fixedly connected to the top of the workbench, and the card plate is provided on the top of the placement block. In this automatic filling device for pranoprofen eye drops, when the operator inserts the container into the inner groove, the perforation and the inner groove will restrict the container to prevent the container from shaking during filling. At the same time, the presence of the support plate can well help the operator move multiple containers without touching the containers, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0004] The above-mentioned automatic filling equipment for pranoprofen eye drops uses perforations and inner grooves to restrict the filling container, which is an effective fixing method. However, this inevitably limits its adaptability to containers of different sizes. For example, when the size of the container does not match the design of the perforations and inner grooves, this fixing method may not be able to effectively fix the container, which may cause the container to shake during the filling process, affecting the accuracy and efficiency of the filling.

[0024] The following will be combined with the accompanying 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.

[0025] Specific examples are given below.

[0026] See also Figure 1-Figure 5The utility model provides an automatic filling device for eye drops, including a filling table 1, with a filling assembly 2 installed above the filling table 1; a mounting plate 3 is provided on the filling table 1; a placement frame 4 is provided on the mounting plate 3; a plurality of placement slots 5 are provided inside the placement frame 4; a splint 6 is slidably connected inside the placement slot 5, and one end of the plurality of splints 6 is connected by a bracket 7; a screw rod 8 is provided at the bottom of the placement frame 4, and one end of the screw rod 8 is connected to the output end of the servo motor 9; a screw nut provided on the screw rod 8 is connected to the bracket 7; a plurality of springs 10 are equidistantly connected to the inside of the splint 6, and the other end of the spring 10 is connected to a buffer plate 11.

[0027] During operation, the container is placed inside the placement slot 5, and the output end of the servo motor 9 drives the screw 8 to rotate, thereby driving the bracket 7 to slide at the bottom of the placement frame 4, and at the same time driving the clamping plate 6 to move closer to the other side of the placement slot 5, so as to automatically clamp the container inside the placement slot 5, thereby improving the degree of automation of the filling process, reducing the tediousness and errors of manual operation, and by adjusting the moving distance of the clamping plate 6 in the placement slot 5, containers of different sizes can be clamped and fixed, improving applicability and reducing the shaking of the container during the filling process. At the same time, the elastic action of the spring 10 makes the clamping plate 6 fit tightly with the container during the clamping process, further improving the clamping stability, and the buffer plate 11 can also protect the container through the elastic force of the spring 10, reducing the deformation or damage of the container caused by excessive clamping force.

[0028] See also Figure 2-Figure 4 The bottom of the placement frame 4 is rotatably connected to multiple sets of threaded barrels 12; the inner side of the threaded barrel 12 is provided with an internal thread and is threadedly connected to a screw 13, one end of the screw 13 is located inside the placement groove 5 and is connected to a receiving seat 14; a slider is provided on one side of the receiving seat 14, and the slider is slidably connected to one side of the inner wall of the placement groove 5; a gear 15 is provided on the outer side of the threaded barrel 12, and a rack 16 is engaged with one side of the gear 15; one end of the rack 16 is connected to the bracket 7,

[0029] When the bottle is in the working state, the receiving seat 14 is used to support the bottom of the container. When the bracket 7 drives the splint 6 to clamp the container, the rack 16 drives the gear 15 to mesh and rotate, and the gear 15 drives the threaded barrel 12 to rotate. The slider arranged on the side of the receiving seat 14 is limited by the placement groove 5, so that the screw 13 does not rotate with the threaded barrel 12. At this time, the screw 13 will shrink toward the threaded barrel 12 due to the threaded connection with the threaded barrel 12, thereby driving the receiving seat 14 to descend, so that the container can gradually and smoothly enter the placement groove 5, reducing the damage caused by the collision of the bottom of the container when the container is placed into the placement groove 5. On the contrary, after the filling is completed, and the bracket 7 drives the splint 6 away from the container and resets, the screw 13 drives the receiving seat 14 to rise and reset inside the placement groove 5 through the reverse movement of the above-mentioned components, so as to achieve the goal of ejecting the container from the placement groove 5, which is convenient for subsequent personnel to collect.

[0030] See also Figure 1-Figure 2 The mounting plates 3 are provided in two groups, and the two groups of mounting plates 3 are located at both ends of the filling station 1 ; electric push rods 17 are respectively installed at both ends of the filling station 1 , and the output ends of the electric push rods 17 are connected to the mounting plates 3 .

[0031] During operation, the two sets of mounting plates 3 can be moved to the filling area in the middle of the filling station 1 through the electric push rod 17, so that when filling the containers in one set of placement frames 4, containers can be placed in the other set of placement frames 4 and the filled containers can be taken out, thereby reducing the time spent on taking out or placing containers in the placement frames 4, thereby improving the filling efficiency.

[0032] See also Figure 1 The edges of both ends of the filling table 1 are equipped with support frames 18, and a cover plate 19 is hinged on the support frame 18; when working, the cover plate 19 can be used to block the placement slot 5 opened inside the placement frame 4 when the device is placed, thereby reducing the entry of dust and causing subsequent contamination to the surface of the container bottle, thereby improving the cleanliness of the device.

[0033] See also Figure 1-Figure 2 The mounting plate 3 is provided with hollow grooves 20, and the hollow grooves 20 are arranged in multiple groups; during operation, the multiple groups of hollow grooves 20 can reduce the overall consumables of the mounting plate 3 to save costs and resources, and can also allow the liquid overflowing during the filling process to flow out from the hollow grooves 20, preventing water from accumulating on the surface of the mounting plate 3 and affecting the overall environmental hygiene.

[0034] See also Figure 1 The filling table 1 is provided with supporting legs at the four corners of its edge, and the supporting legs are made of stainless steel. When working, the supporting legs are used to support the filling table 1 as a whole, and the use of stainless steel can improve its corrosion resistance and ease of cleaning.

[0035] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 , a rubber layer is provided on one side of the placement groove 5; during operation, the rubber pad can increase the softness of one side of the placement groove 5, reducing the stress on the side of the container away from the splint 6 when the splint 6 squeezes and clamps the container.

[0036] Working principle: By placing the container into the placement slot 5, the output end of the servo motor 9 drives the screw 8 to rotate, thereby driving the bracket 7 to slide at the bottom of the placement frame 4, and at the same time driving the clamping plate 6 to move closer to the other side of the placement slot 5, so as to automatically clamp the container inside the placement slot 5, thereby improving the automation level of the filling process, reducing the tediousness and error of manual operation, and by adjusting the moving distance of the clamping plate 6 in the placement slot 5, the container of different sizes can be clamped and fixed, thereby improving applicability and reducing the shaking of the container during the filling process. At the same time, the elastic effect of the spring 10 makes the clamping plate 6 more stable during the clamping process. The support 14 is used to support the bottom of the container. When the bracket 7 drives the clamping plate 6 to clamp the container, the gear 15 is driven to rotate through the rack 16, and the gear 15 drives the threaded cylinder 12 to rotate. Under the guidance of the slider, the screw 13 drives the support 14 to descend, so that the container can gradually and smoothly enter the placement groove 5, reducing the risk of the bottom of the container hitting the inside of the placement groove 5. The two sets of mounting plates 3 can be moved to the filling area in the middle of the filling station 1 through the electric push rod 17, so that when filling the containers in one set of placement frames 4, the containers in the other set of placement frames 4 can be placed and the filled containers can be taken out, which reduces the time spent on taking or placing containers in the placement frames 4, thereby improving the filling efficiency. Installation efficiency; through the cover plate 19, the placement slot 5 opened inside the placement frame 4 can be shielded when the device is placed, reducing the entry of dust and the subsequent pollution to the surface of the container bottle, so as to improve the cleanliness of the device; through multiple groups of hollow grooves 20, the overall consumables of the installation plate 3 can be reduced to save costs and resources; the legs are used to support the filling station 1 as a whole, and the use of stainless steel can improve its corrosion resistance and easy cleaning; the rubber pad can increase the softness of one side of the placement slot 5, reducing the stress on the side of the container away from the splint 6 when the splint 6 squeezes and clamps the container.
