[0023] As Figures 1-6The tunnel type medicine bag detection machine shown is used for appearance detection of medicine bags, comprising a tunnel box 1 and a medicine bag conveying belt 2, the tunnel box 1 is provided with an inlet end 11 and an outlet end 12 on the left and right sides respectively, the medicine bag conveying belt 2 is installed transversely in the tunnel box 1, the transverse two ends of the medicine bag conveying belt 2 respectively exceed the inlet end 11 and the outlet end 12, the inlet end 11 is provided with a medicine bin 3, the medicine bin 3 is fixed to the outer wall of the tunnel box 1, the medicine bags are conveyed one by one on the belt surface of the medicine bag conveying belt 2 through the medicine bin 3, the medicine bags can move from the inlet end 11 to the outlet end 12 through the medicine bag conveying belt 2, the belt surface cleaning device 4, the visual detection device 5 and the unqualified product removing device 6 are sequentially installed in the tunnel box 1 along the movement direction of the medicine bags, the operations of belt surface cleaning, visual detection and unqualified product removal are sequentially completed in the circulation movement process of the medicine bags, the qualified product collecting box 7 is installed below the rightmost end of the medicine bag conveying belt 2, the medicine bags can naturally fall off when moving to the rightmost end of the medicine bag conveying belt 2 and are collected in the qualified product collecting box 7, since the unqualified products are removed by the unqualified product removing device 6, therefore all the collected medicine bags are qualified, the medicine bags are circulated by adopting the linear motion mode, the visual detection, separation of qualified products and waste products are automatically completed in the circulation process of the medicine bags, the appearance detection operation of the medicine bags can be automatically and efficiently completed, so as to meet the market demand for linear tunnel type medicine bag detection equipment.

[0024] In the visual detection process, the medicine bags need to be detected one by one, and the medicine bags need to be placed transversely, so that the maximum field of view can be used for detection, therefore Figure 2 As shown in the drawings, the bottom of the medicine bin 3 is connected with a medicine outlet pipeline 31, the medicine outlet pipeline 31 only accommodates a single medicine bag to fall transversely, and a gap is formed between the pipe opening of the medicine outlet pipeline 31 and the belt surface of the medicine bag conveying belt 2, the gap can only allow a single transversely placed medicine bag to pass through.

[0025] As shown in the drawings, Figure 2 and Figure 3 The belt surface of the medicine bag conveying belt 2 adopts a strip structure, the belt surface of the medicine bag conveying belt 2 comprises a plurality of arranged and installed strip boards 21, a groove 22 is formed in each strip board 21, the groove 22 can accommodate a single medicine bag to be placed transversely, the medicine bag falls into the groove 22 after falling, and then the linear circulation movement effect of the medicine bag is formed through the movement of the strip board 21.

[0026] In the medicine bag feeding process, there may be a case that the medicine bag cannot fall into the groove 22, at this time, the medicine bag will be on the plane of the strip board 21, which will affect the subsequent visual detection, therefore, it is necessary to remove it before visual detection, therefore, as Figure 3As shown, this utility model designs a surface cleaning device 4 to solve the above problems. The surface cleaning device 4 includes a first blowing box 41 and a recycling trough 42. The first blowing box 41 and the recycling trough 42 are respectively installed on both sides of the drug bag conveyor belt 2. When the drug bag conveyor belt 2 passes through the surface cleaning device 4, the first blowing box 41 can form a blowing effect in the direction of the recycling trough 42. The wind force is relatively small. If the drug bag is in the groove 22, it will not be blown. If the drug bag is on the plane of the slat 21, the drug bag has no resistance effect and the drug bag will be blown into the recycling trough 42 and concentrated.

[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, the visual inspection device 5 includes a camera bracket 51 and a camera 52. A condenser hood 511 is mounted at the bottom of the camera bracket 51, and the camera 52 is mounted in the center of the condenser hood 511, directly facing the movement trajectory line of the drug capsule.

The camera 52 captures the appearance image of the passing drug capsule, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the visual inspection device 5 also includes a contact plate 54, which is located directly below the camera 52. The contact plate 54 is installed below the strip 21 of the drug bag conveyor belt 2. The contact plate 54 does not affect the transmission of the strip 21. When the drug bag falls into the groove 22, the bottom of the drug bag extends beyond the lower plane of the strip 21. When the strip 21 passes the contact plate 54, the bottom of the drug bag contacts the contact plate 54. Under the action of friction, the drug bag rotates. The drug bag passes the position of the camera 52 in a rotating state. In this way, the camera 52 can fully capture the appearance image of the drug bag, ensuring the accuracy of the appearance inspection. The length of the contact plate 54 covers the travel distance of the drug bag as it passes the camera 52, thus ensuring that the drug bag is in a rotating state when it passes the camera 52.

[0028] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the defective product rejection device 6 includes a recovery box 61 and a second air-blowing box 63. The recovery box 61 has a drug inlet 611 at its bottom, directly facing the surface of the drug bag conveyor belt 2. A drug receiving seat 62 is installed inside the recovery box 61, offset from the drug inlet 611 to avoid affecting the rejection operation. The second air-blowing box 63 is installed below the surface of the drug bag conveyor belt 2, and is installed at an angle. The second air-blowing box 63 creates an upward-sloping blowing effect, which blows up the drug bags in the groove 22. The blown-up drug bags move in a parabolic motion, first passing through the drug inlet 611 and then landing on the drug receiving seat 62. Figure 5As shown, the medicine receiving seat 62 is provided with a medicine receiving arc groove 621, the arc design makes the medicine bag fall into and cannot escape, and is concentrated to the central position, the outer wall of the recovery box 61 is provided with a waste discharge pipe 64 which is placed obliquely, the high point of the waste discharge pipe 64 is connected with the medicine receiving arc groove 621, and the low point of the waste discharge pipe 64 is placed below an unqualified product collecting box 65, the medicine bag on the medicine receiving arc groove 621 can slide into the waste discharge pipe 64, then naturally falls along the waste discharge pipe 64 and is collected in the unqualified product collecting box 65, in the utility model, the determination of unqualified products is generated in real time according to image data collected by the visual detection device 5, the medicine bag conveying belt 2 is uniformly driven, the time of the medicine bag to the position of the second blowing box 63 is designed according to the driving speed of the medicine bag conveying belt 2, so that the unqualified medicine bag can be blown up and removed when it is just at the position of the second blowing box 63.
