[0043] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0044] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 3, the specific structure of the medical capsule equidistant placement and removal mechanism includes a support 1. A first connecting plate 3 is laterally movable on the support 1 and is driven by a transverse cylinder 2 on the support 1. A second connecting plate 5 is longitudinally movable on the first connecting plate 3 and is driven by a longitudinal cylinder 4 on the first connecting plate 3. A transmission plate 7 is slidably mounted on the second connecting plate 5. A transmission block 8 is slidably mounted on the second connecting plate 5. The transmission plate 7 can drive several transmission blocks 8 to move, and a vacuum suction cup 804 is provided below the transmission blocks 8. The first connecting plate 3 and the second connecting plate 5 are driven by the transverse cylinder 2 and the longitudinal cylinder 4 respectively, realizing independent movement of the transverse and longitudinal positions, enhancing the adaptability and flexibility of the mechanism.
[0045] like Figure 4As shown, the transmission plate 7 includes a plate body 701, which is slidably mounted on the second connecting plate 5 via guide rails on both sides. Transmission grooves 702 are formed on the plate body 701. Each transmission groove 702 is a long, straight groove, with both ends equally spaced and arranged in a mirror-symmetrical manner. An end plate 703 is mounted on the plate body 701 and is connected to a drive cylinder 6 mounted on the second connecting plate 5. The drive cylinder 6 drives the transmission plate 7 to move via the end plate 703. Limiting plates 704 are mounted on the plate body 701 and located on opposite sides of the second connecting plate 5, for mounting hydraulic buffers. The hydraulic buffers limit and buffer the movement of the transmission plate 7.
[0046] like Figure 5 As shown, the transmission block 8 includes a block 801, which is slidably mounted on the second connecting plate 5 and perpendicular to the sliding direction of the plate 701. A transmission roller 803 is rotatably mounted on the upper end of the block 801, inserted into the transmission groove 702, and connected to the transmission groove 702. A vacuum suction cup 804 is located at the lower end of the block 801 and is used to pick up medical capsules. Several equally spaced transmission grooves 702 on the transmission plate 7 cooperate with the transmission roller 803 on the transmission block 8 to convert the linear motion of the transmission plate 7 into the lateral equally spaced movement of the transmission block 8, thereby driving the vacuum suction cups 804 to adjust synchronously and equally. Furthermore, using the vacuum suction cups 804 as the end effector for picking up and placing medical capsules by suction avoids squeezing or scratching that may be caused by mechanical clamping, ensuring the integrity of the capsule's appearance and internal structure.
[0047] An interface 805 is located on one side of the block 801 and connects to several vacuum suction cups 804 via an air passage 806 within the block 801. The interface 805 is connected to a vacuum source via a flexible hose. The transmission block 8 integrates the air passage 806 and connects to several vacuum suction cups 804, simplifying the piping layout and reducing the risk of external interference. A sliding groove 802 extends through the block 801 and is slidably connected to a horizontal shaft 9 mounted on the second connecting plate 5. The block 801 can slide along the horizontal shaft 9.
[0048] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of this utility model, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
