[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a boxing auxiliary pusher mechanism, which can reduce manual operation, improve boxing stability, reduce human error, and increase boxing efficiency.

[0004] This utility model discloses a box-packing auxiliary pusher mechanism, including a medicine box conveyor belt and a medicine blister conveyor belt arranged in parallel; a first feeding trough is provided on the side of the medicine blister conveyor belt near the side of the medicine box conveyor belt, and a second feeding trough is provided on the side of the medicine box conveyor belt near the side of the medicine blister conveyor belt; a support platform is provided at the middle position of the medicine box conveyor belt and the medicine blister conveyor belt, and an anti-tilting device is provided on the support platform; a pushing device is provided on the medicine blister conveyor belt.

[0005] In an optimized configuration, the discharge end of the first feeding trough is in contact with the inlet end of the second feeding trough, and the first feeding trough and the second feeding trough are on the same straight line.

[0006] The optimized anti-tilting device includes an inverted U-shaped bracket installed on the support platform. An inclined plate is fixed below the top rod of the inverted U-shaped bracket. The side of the inclined plate closer to the medicine box conveyor belt is lower than the side of the inclined plate farther away from the medicine box conveyor belt.

[0007] The optimized propulsion device includes an electric telescopic rod installed on the outside of the blister pack conveyor belt, and the output end of the electric telescopic rod is connected to a push plate via a connecting rod.

[0008] In an optimized configuration, fiber optic sensors are mounted on the outer support of the blister pack conveyor belt.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0010] With a simple structure, automatic blister feeding can be achieved by setting fiber optic sensors, a propulsion device and an anti-tilting device on the electric medicine box conveyor belt and the electric medicine blister conveyor belt, and the cooperation of multiple simple devices.

[0011] The device is inexpensive. Apart from the mechanical components, the electrical components used in this device include fiber optic sensors, electric telescopic rods, and controllers for controlling both. Therefore, the number of electrical components used is reduced, resulting in lower costs.

[0012] During the work process, setting up inclined plates can prevent the blister packs from tilting, thereby preventing the medicine box from being torn and improving the quality of the blister packs being placed into the box.

[0013] It has a high degree of automation. In addition to the existing electric medicine box conveyor belt and medicine blister conveyor belt, fiber optic sensors and electric telescopic rods are set up to detect the presence of medicine blister and push the medicine blister, respectively. Therefore, it saves labor and reduces problems such as medicine blister tilting or medicine blister contamination that may occur with manual operation. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0017] To further illustrate the technical means and effects of this utility model in order to achieve its intended purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0018] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects, rather than to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such terms can be used interchangeably where appropriate.

[0019] It should be noted that, in this application, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "top," and "bottom" are generally used in relation to the direction shown in the accompanying drawings, or in relation to the vertical, perpendicular, or gravitational direction of the component itself; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of each component itself, but the above directional terms are not used to limit this utility model.

[0020] Example: Figure 1-2 As shown, a carton-packing auxiliary pusher mechanism includes a medicine box conveyor belt 1 and a medicine blister conveyor belt 2 installed in parallel. Both the medicine box conveyor belt 1 and the medicine blister conveyor belt 2 are electrically powered, which are existing and publicly disclosed technologies. Figure 1 The overall structure of the medicine box conveyor belt and the medicine blister conveyor belt is not drawn; only enlarged schematic diagrams of some parts are shown.

[0021] A first feeding trough 3 is provided on the side of the blister pack conveyor belt 2 near the side of the medicine box conveyor belt 1, and a second feeding trough 4 is provided on the side of the medicine box conveyor belt 1 near the side of the blister pack conveyor belt 2. The discharge end of the first feeding trough 3 is in contact with the inlet end of the second feeding trough 4, and the first feeding trough 3 and the second feeding trough 4 are on the same straight line. The purpose of this arrangement is to enable the pusher plate 7 of the pushing device to push multiple stacked blister packs sequentially through the first feeding trough 3 and the second feeding trough 4, thereby pushing the blister packs into the medicine box. It should be noted that the first feeding trough and the second feeding trough are respectively installed on the fixed brackets on both sides of the medicine box conveyor belt and the blister pack conveyor belt, and do not move with the transmission of the conveyor belts.

[0022] A propulsion device is provided on the medicine blister conveyor belt 2. The propulsion device includes an electric telescopic rod 5 installed on the outside of the medicine blister conveyor belt 2, and the output end of the electric telescopic rod 5 is connected to a push plate 7 via a connecting rod 6. An optical fiber sensor 8 is installed on the outer support of the medicine blister conveyor belt 2. A controller 9 is provided on one side of the medicine blister conveyor belt 2, and the controller 9 is connected to both the optical fiber sensor 8 and the electric telescopic rod 5. When the edge of the medicine blister passes by, light shines on the medicine blister and is reflected back to the optical fiber sensor 8. The optical fiber sensor 8 converts the light signal into an electrical signal and transmits it to the controller 9. The controller 9 controls the extension and retraction of the electric telescopic rod 5, thereby realizing the pushing operation of the push plate 7 at the end of the electric telescopic rod 5 on the medicine blister.

[0023] In this setup, controller 9 can be a BLD-300B speed-regulating DC motor controller 9, which is connected to the medicine box conveyor belt 1, the medicine blister conveyor belt 2, the fiber optic sensor 8, and the electric telescopic rod 5. When the fiber optic sensor 8 detects a medicine blister, it transmits a signal to controller 9. Controller 9 then pauses medicine box conveyor belt 1 and medicine blister conveyor belt 2 and extends electric telescopic rod 5, allowing pusher plate 7 to push the medicine blister into the box. After the medicine blister is in the box, electric telescopic rod 5 retracts until pusher plate 7 moves out of medicine blister conveyor belt 2. Controller 9 then restarts medicine box conveyor belt 1 and medicine blister conveyor belt 2 until fiber optic sensor 8 detects a medicine blister again, at which point the boxing operation is repeated.

[0024] A support platform 10 is provided at the midpoint between the medicine box conveyor belt 1 and the medicine blister conveyor belt 2. An anti-tilting device is installed on the support platform 10. The anti-tilting device includes an inverted U-shaped bracket 11 mounted on the support platform 10. An inclined plate 12 is fixed below the top rod of the inverted U-shaped bracket 11. The side of the inclined plate 12 closest to the medicine box conveyor belt 1 is lower than the side of the inclined plate 12 furthest from the medicine box conveyor belt 1. This design prevents the medicine blister from tilting to the sides or outwards during the pushing process, avoiding damage to the medicine box caused by the medicine blister failing to fit into the box, and improving the boxing quality.

[0025] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Although the present utility model has been disclosed above with reference to a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any person skilled in the art can make some modifications or alterations to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments without departing from the scope of the present utility model.
