Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pharmaceutical production technology, specifically a mechanism for turning a medicine plate. Background Technology
[0002] During the production process, blister packs need to be transported by belt conveyors. When they need to be turned due to reasons such as equipment placement, incorrect orientation of the blister packs, or inconvenience for processing by equipment in the next process, a turning mechanism is usually used to turn the blister packs. The mainstream turning method is to use two vertically distributed belt conveyors, such as a horizontally arranged belt conveyor, to feed the blister packs into a vertically arranged belt conveyor, thereby turning the blister packs and completing the turning of the blister packs.
[0003] The original design of the medicine blister turning device was unreasonable. When the medicine blister entered the turning belt at the turning point, it still had a forward force due to inertia. This caused the medicine blister to not turn quickly. Instead, the lateral force applied by the turning belt caused the medicine blister to pause briefly. Due to the efficiency of the conveyor, the conveyor usually ran at a slow speed. Even the brief pause of the medicine blister in front could easily cause the medicine blister behind to collide with it, resulting in them stacking together. This could easily cause the medicine blister to jam and be squeezed and deformed. The operators had to stop the machine to clean the jammed medicine blister, which not only damaged the medicine blister but also affected the production progress. Utility Model Content
[0004] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a medicine plate turning mechanism to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a medicine plate turning mechanism, comprising a frame and a first belt conveyor. Supports are connected to both sides of the frame, and a speed-regulating motor is installed on one side of each support. A second pulley is connected to both the output end of the speed-regulating motor and one side inside the support, and a steering belt connects the two second pulleys. Two first pulleys and a support wheel are connected to the other side inside the support, and a clamping belt connects the two first pulleys. A synchronous pulley is connected to the back of one of the first pulleys and one side of the back of the first belt conveyor, and a synchronous belt connects the two synchronous pulleys.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the first belt conveyor operates simultaneously with the synchronous pulley and synchronous belt, causing the first pulley to rotate synchronously. The rotation of the first pulley activates the clamping belt, which presses down on the medicine blister packs behind it, preventing them from impacting and stacking. During this process, support wheels support the clamping belt, preventing deformation that could cause the medicine blister packs to still stack. Furthermore, because the first pulley and the first belt conveyor operate synchronously, the difference in rotation speed between the clamping belt and the first belt conveyor avoids excessive friction on the medicine blister packs, further improving stability and effectively preventing impact stacking. After the speed-regulating motor starts, its output drives the second pulley to rotate, causing the steering belt to operate. When the medicine blister packs are transported on the first belt conveyor, they eventually contact the bottom of the steering belt, allowing it to transport the medicine blister packs to the second belt conveyor to complete the turning. During this process, the speed of the second pulley and the steering belt can be controlled by the speed-regulating motor to ensure stable and rapid turning of the medicine blister packs and to press down on them, thus preventing stacking and impact at this point.
[0007] Furthermore, the first pulley and the second pulley are perpendicularly distributed, and the pressure belt and the steering belt are perpendicularly distributed.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotation of the first pulley causes the clamping belt to operate, which presses down the medicine blister packs behind it, thereby preventing the medicine blister packs from impacting and stacking. The steering belt then transports the medicine blister packs to the second belt conveyor to complete the steering.
[0009] Furthermore, the support wheel comes into contact with the pressure belt.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the pressure belt is supported by the support wheel, which prevents the pressure belt from deforming and causing the medicine blister packs to continue to stack.
[0011] Furthermore, the bracket, the first pulley, the synchronous pulley, the support pulley, and the second pulley are all made of aluminum alloy.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the bracket, first pulley, synchronous pulley, support pulley and second pulley made of aluminum alloy material have the effects of being lightweight, having high structural strength and being non-toxic, thus avoiding contamination of the medicine plate.
[0013] Furthermore, both the clamping belt and the steering belt are made of polyurethane material.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, it has good wear resistance, tear resistance, oil resistance, corrosion resistance, aging resistance and non-toxicity, is easy to use and will not cause contamination to the contact blister pack.
[0015] Furthermore, a first motor is installed on one side of the outer surface of the frame, and a first belt conveyor is connected to the output end of the first motor. A second motor is installed on the lower side of one side of the frame, and the output end of the second motor is connected to a second belt conveyor.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the staff starts the first motor, the second motor and the speed-regulating motor. After the first motor starts, its output drives the first belt conveyor to operate. After the second motor starts, its output drives the second belt conveyor to operate, thus starting the tablet delivery work.
[0017] Furthermore, the first belt conveyor and the second belt conveyor are vertically distributed, and the frame is L-shaped.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the first belt conveyor transports the medicine blister laterally, and the steering belt feeds the medicine blister into the second belt conveyor, thereby achieving steering and transporting the medicine blister longitudinally.
[0019] Furthermore, guide frames are connected to the upper sides, the upper outer surface, the upper back, and the inside of the support of the frame, and the guide frames are made of aluminum alloy.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the medicine blister pack is guided by the guide frame to avoid rotation or displacement of the medicine blister pack. The aluminum alloy material is lightweight, high-strength, and will not contaminate the medicine blister pack.
[0021] Furthermore, the support wheels are provided in multiple quantities, and the multiple support wheels are distributed at equal intervals.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the support wheels are multiple and equidistantly distributed, which increases the support area for the pressure belt and thus improves stability.
[0023] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:
[0024] 1. This utility model utilizes a speed-regulating motor, a second pulley, and a steering belt. The speed-regulating motor drives the second pulley to rotate, thereby operating the steering belt. When the medicine blister pack is transported on the first belt conveyor, it contacts the bottom of the steering belt, which then transports the medicine blister pack to the second belt conveyor to complete the turning. During this process, the speed of the second pulley and the steering belt can be controlled by the speed-regulating motor to ensure that the medicine blister pack can achieve stable and rapid turning, and the steering belt presses down on the medicine blister pack to prevent the medicine blister packs from stacking and impacting at this point; thus facilitating stable and rapid turning.
[0025] 2. This utility model, through the arrangement of a synchronous pulley, a synchronous belt, a first pulley, a support wheel, and a pressing belt, allows the first belt conveyor to operate simultaneously. The synchronous pulley and synchronous belt cause the first pulley to rotate synchronously, which in turn causes the pressing belt to operate, pressing down on the medicine platters behind it, thus preventing the platters from impacting and stacking. During this process, the support wheel supports the pressing belt, preventing deformation that could cause the medicine platters to still stack. Furthermore, because the first pulley and the first belt conveyor operate synchronously, the difference in rotation speed between the pressing belt and the first belt conveyor prevents the medicine platters from experiencing excessive friction, further improving stability and effectively preventing impact stacking. Applying pressure to limit the movement of the medicine platters effectively prevents impact stacking. Attached Figure Description

[0031] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0032] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.
[0033] Example 1:
[0034] A blister pack turning mechanism, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the device includes a frame 1 and a first belt conveyor 3. Supports 7 are connected to both sides of the frame 1. A speed-regulating motor 8 is installed on one side of each support 7. A second pulley 14 is connected to both the output end of the speed-regulating motor 8 and one side of the support 7. A guide belt 15 connects the two second pulleys 14. Two first pulleys 9 and a support wheel 12 are connected to the other side of the support 7. The support wheel 12 contacts a pressure belt 13. A pressure belt 13 connects the two first pulleys 9. Both the pressure belt 13 and the guide belt 15 are made of polyurethane. The first pulleys 9 and second pulleys 14 are perpendicularly distributed, as are the pressure belt 13 and guide belt 15. A synchronous pulley 10 is connected to the back of one first pulley 9 and one side of the back of the first belt conveyor 3. The support 7, first pulleys 9, synchronous pulleys 10, support wheel 12, and second pulleys 14 are all made of aluminum alloy. A synchronous belt 11 connects the two synchronous pulleys 10. During operation, the first belt conveyor 3 uses the synchronous pulleys 10 and synchronous belt 11 to guide the first belt conveyor... The pulley 9 rotates synchronously, and the rotation of the first pulley 9 causes the clamping belt 13 to operate. The clamping belt 13 presses down on the medicine blister packs behind it, thus preventing the medicine blister packs from impacting and stacking. During this process, the support wheel 12 supports the clamping belt 13 to prevent deformation of the clamping belt 13, which would cause the medicine blister packs to still stack. Since the first pulley 9 and the first belt conveyor 3 operate synchronously, the difference in speed between the clamping belt 13 and the first belt conveyor 3 prevents the medicine blister packs from experiencing large frictional forces, further improving stability and effectively preventing impact and stacking. After the speed-regulating motor 8 starts, its output drives the second pulley 14 to rotate, thereby causing the guide belt 15 to operate. When the medicine blister packs are transported on the first belt conveyor 3, they will eventually contact the bottom of the guide belt 15, so that the guide belt 15 transports the medicine blister packs to the second belt conveyor 5 to complete the turning. During this process, the speed of the second pulley 14 and the guide belt 15 can be controlled by the speed-regulating motor 8 to ensure that the medicine blister packs can achieve stable and rapid turning, and that the guide belt 15 presses down on the medicine blister packs, thereby preventing the medicine blister packs from stacking and impacting at this point.
[0035] See Figure 1 and Figure 2In the above embodiment, a first motor 2 is installed on one side of the outer surface of the frame 1, and a first belt conveyor 3 is connected to the output end of the first motor 2. A second motor 4 is installed on the lower side of one side of the frame 1, and the output end of the second motor 4 is connected to a second belt conveyor 5. The first belt conveyor 3 and the second belt conveyor 5 are vertically distributed. The frame 1 is L-shaped. Guide frames 6 are connected to the upper sides, the upper outer surface, the upper back, and the inside of the support 7 of the frame 1. The guide frames 6 are made of aluminum alloy. When the operator starts the first motor 2, the second motor 4, and the speed-regulating motor 8, the output end of the first motor 2 drives the first belt conveyor 3 to operate, and the output end of the second motor 4 drives the second belt conveyor 5 to operate, thereby starting the tablet conveying work. The guide frames 6 guide the tablets to prevent the tablets from rotating or deviating.
[0036] Example 2:
[0037] Based on the above embodiment one, in order to increase the support area and improve stability, the following settings are now adopted.
[0038] See Figure 1 and Figure 3 In the above embodiment, multiple support wheels 12 are provided, and the multiple support wheels 12 are distributed at equal intervals. Since there are multiple support wheels 12 and they are distributed at equal intervals, the support area for the pressure belt 13 is increased.
[0039] The implementation principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the staff turns on the first motor 2, the second motor 4 and the speed regulating motor 8. After the first motor 2 starts, the output end drives the first belt conveyor 3 to operate. After the second motor 4 starts, the output end drives the second belt conveyor 5 to operate, thereby starting the tablet conveying work. The guide frame 6 guides the tablet to prevent the tablet from rotating or deviating.
[0040] While the first belt conveyor 3 is operating, the first pulley 9 rotates synchronously through the synchronous pulley 10 and the synchronous belt 11. After the first pulley 9 rotates, the pressing belt 13 operates, pressing down the medicine platters behind it to prevent them from impacting and stacking. During this process, the pressing belt 13 is supported by the support wheels 12 to prevent deformation of the pressing belt 13 from causing the medicine platters to still stack. Since there are multiple support wheels 12 and they are evenly distributed, the support area for the pressing belt 13 is increased. Furthermore, since the first pulley 9 and the first belt conveyor 3 operate synchronously, the pressure difference between the pressing belt 13 and the first belt conveyor 3 is avoided, which would cause the medicine platters to be subjected to greater friction, further improving stability and effectively preventing the phenomenon of impact and stacking.
[0041] After the speed-regulating motor 8 starts, its output drives the second pulley 14 to rotate, thereby causing the steering belt 15 to operate. When the medicine plate is transported on the first belt conveyor 3, it will eventually contact the bottom of the steering belt 15, thereby causing the steering belt 15 to transport the medicine plate to the second belt conveyor 5 to complete the turning. During this process, the speed of the second pulley 14 and the steering belt 15 can be controlled by the speed-regulating motor 8 to ensure that the medicine plate can achieve turning stably and quickly, and to press the medicine plate with the steering belt 15 to avoid the medicine plates from stacking and impacting at this point.
