[0038] Two side baffles 42 are parallelly arranged in the middle of turnover frame 41, and feeding channel 40 is formed between two side baffles 42, and the side end of feeding channel 40 is provided with feeding port opposite to the tail of feeding conveyor 2, and the medicine bottle uprightly conveyed on feeding conveyor 2 can enter feeding channel 40 through feeding port. Discharge port 410 is formed in the turnover frame 41 below feeding channel 40. Bottom plate 45 is movably arranged on the turnover frame 41 above discharge port 410 and at the bottom of feeding channel 40, and bottom plate 45 is connected with third transverse drive assembly on the turnover frame 41. In the embodiment, corresponding slide rail is installed below turnover frame 41, and bottom plate 45 is slidably arranged on the corresponding slide rail, so as to improve the stability when bottom plate 45 moves. And third transverse drive assembly includes third screw rod 451 arranged in parallel with the length direction of feeding channel 40, third screw rod 451 is connected with corresponding driving motor power, and bottom plate 45 is threadedly sleeved on third screw rod 451, so that bottom plate 45 can move horizontally forward and backward through the forward and reverse rotation of third screw rod 451.
[0039] When the upright medicine bottles on the feeding conveyor 2 are fed into the feeding channel 40 from the feeding port, the third horizontal movement driving assembly drives the bottom plate 45 below the medicine bottles to move back and forth continuously, so as to facilitate the feeding of the medicine bottles into the feeding channel 40. When the medicine bottle group needs to be discharged from the discharge port 410 below the feeding channel 40, the third horizontal movement driving assembly drives the bottom plate 45 to move to one side, so as to expose the discharge port 410. The medicine bottle group can be guided out of the discharge port 410 by the action of the bottle pushing block 55, and the loading operation is performed.
[0040] The front baffle 43 and the rear baffle 44 are horizontally arranged along the length direction of the feeding channel 40 and closely arranged against the inner wall of the two side baffles 42 in the feeding channel 40. The opposite side of the front baffle 43 and the rear baffle 44 is provided with a groove matched with the outer wall of the medicine bottle, so that the medicine bottle group can be more effectively regularized. The first horizontal movement driving assembly connected with the front baffle 43 is arranged on the turnover frame 41, and is used to drive the front baffle 43 to move back and forth in the feeding channel 40. In the embodiment, the first horizontal movement driving assembly includes a first lead screw 431 arranged in parallel with the length direction of the feeding channel 40. The first lead screw 431 is connected with the power of a corresponding driving motor, and the front baffle 43 is threadedly sleeved on the first lead screw 431.
[0041] When the feeding channel 40 is initially fed, the front baffle 43 is located at the feeding port. With the continuous feeding of the medicine bottles into the feeding channel 40, the first horizontal movement driving assembly drives the front baffle 43 to move to the front side of the feeding channel 40 at the feeding speed of the medicine bottles, so that the front baffle 43 can always limit the front end of the medicine bottle group and avoid the scattering of the medicine bottle group.
[0042] The turnover frame 41 above the feeding channel 40 is provided with a corresponding slide rail, and a horizontal slidingly mounted horizontal movement frame 51 is arranged on the slide rail. The horizontal movement frame 51 is connected with the second horizontal movement driving assembly on the turnover frame 41. In the embodiment, the second horizontal movement driving assembly includes a second lead screw 52 connected with the power of a corresponding driving motor. The horizontal movement frame 51 is threadedly sleeved on the second lead screw 52, and the rotation of the second lead screw 52 can drive the horizontal movement frame 51 to move horizontally back and forth above the feeding channel 40.
[0043] The rear baffle 44 is vertically arranged near the feeding port side in the feeding channel 40 and below the horizontal movement frame 51. The horizontal blocking plate 21 is fixedly arranged above the tail of the feeding conveyor 2. The height of the horizontal blocking plate 21 is greater than the length of the medicine bottle, and the medicine bottle can pass below the horizontal blocking plate 21 without affecting the conveying of the medicine bottle. The rear baffle 44 is in abutting connection with the horizontal blocking plate 21. A first slide rod 53 is vertically and fixedly connected above the rear baffle 44. The upper end of the first slide rod 53 penetrates the horizontal movement frame 51 upwardly and is fixedly provided with a first limiting block 532. A first spring 531 is sleeved on the first slide rod 53, and the two ends of the first spring 531 are in abutting connection with the rear baffle 44 and the horizontal movement frame 51 respectively.
[0044] When the medicine bottle is fed, the lifting belt drives the turnover bottle pushing mechanism 4 to descend, so that the feeding channel 40 is in the same horizontal line with the feeding conveyor 2, and at this time, the rear baffle 44 abuts against the horizontal blocking plate 21 above the tail of the feeding conveyor 2 and extrudes the first spring 531 on the first sliding rod 53, the medicine bottles on the feeding conveyor 2 pass through below the horizontal blocking plate 21 and the rear baffle 44 and are conveyed into the feeding channel 40, and the front baffle 43 in the feeding channel 40 moves forward together with the front end of the group of medicine bottles as the medicine bottles are fed; when the feeding of the medicine bottles in the feeding channel 40 is completed, the lifting mechanism 3 drives the entire turnover bottle pushing mechanism 4 to move upward by a certain height, and the turnover bottle pushing mechanism 4 cuts off the flow of the medicine bottles between the tail of the feeding conveyor 2 and the feeding channel 40 when it rises, and during this period, the rear baffle 44 moves downward relative to the horizontal moving frame 51 under the action of the elastic force of the first spring 531, and when the lifting mechanism 3 rises to the highest position, the rear baffle 44 is separated from the abutment of the horizontal blocking plate 21 and is just blocked at the feeding opening of the feeding channel 40, so as to restrict the group of medicine bottles in the feeding channel 40 between the front baffle 43, the rear baffle 44 and the two side baffles 42, in preparation for the subsequent feeding.
[0045] The tail end side of the feeding conveyor 2 is fixedly provided with a fixed plate, and a lower baffle 22 is vertically provided above the fixed plate and opposite to the rear baffle 44, and the bottom of the turnover frame 41 abuts against the lower baffle 22.

[0046] When the lifting mechanism 3 descends to the lowest end to feed the medicine bottles into the feeding channel 40, the turnover frame 41 vertically presses the lower baffle 22 downward and extrudes the second spring 222; when the feeding of the medicine bottles in the feeding channel 40 is completed and the lifting mechanism 3 and the turnover bottle pushing mechanism 4 move upward, the lower baffle 22 moves vertically upward under the action of the elastic force of the second spring 222, and is finally vertically blocked at the tail end of the feeding conveyor 2, so as to effectively block the medicine bottles on the feeding conveyor 2 and avoid the falling of the medicine bottles on the feeding conveyor 2.
[0047] The bottle pushing driving assembly 54 is vertically installed on the horizontal moving frame 51, and the bottle pushing block 55 is arranged above the feeding channel 40 and is connected with the bottle pushing driving assembly 54, and is used for pushing the group of medicine bottles in the feeding channel 40 out of the feeding opening 410. In the embodiment, the bottle pushing driving assembly 54 adopts a cylinder structure, and the bottle pushing block 55 is installed on the piston rod of the cylinder.
[0048] When the feeding of the medicine bottles in the feeding channel 40 is completed, the lifting mechanism 3 drives the turnover bottle pushing mechanism 4 to rise to the highest position, the rotating driving assembly drives the turnover frame 41 to rotate counterclockwise by an angle slightly larger than 90 degrees (the optimal rotation angle is 100 degrees), so that the medicine bottle group in the feeding channel 40 is in a state that the bottle head is inclined downward, then the third horizontal moving driving assembly drives the bottom plate 45 to move to one side to expose the discharge port 410, the bottle pushing driving assembly drives the bottle pushing block 55 to act, and the medicine bottle group is pushed out from the discharge port 410 and sent into the box support at the discharge port 410. Through the cooperation of the turnover bottle pushing mechanism 4 and the bottle pushing driving assembly 54, the medicine bottles are sent into the box support in an inclined state that the bottle bottom is upward and the bottle head is downward, which can effectively avoid the problem that the medicine bottle group is scattered when the medicine bottles are put into the box support, and improve the quality of the medicine bottle loading. After the medicine bottles are loaded into the box support, the turnover bottle pushing mechanism 4 is reversely rotated to reset, and the lifting mechanism 3 is also reset downward.
[0049] A jacking mechanism is vertically arranged below the turnover bottle pushing mechanism 4, which is used to jack up the box support to the discharge port 410 at the bottom of the turnover bottle pushing mechanism 4, and a box support fixing assembly is arranged at the discharge port 410 of the turnover bottle pushing mechanism 4. The adjacent two sides of the jacking mechanism are respectively connected with the box support feeding mechanism and the discharging conveyor 8, and the other side opposite to the discharging conveyor 8 is provided with a flat pushing mechanism; the jacking mechanism comprises a jacking seat 61 and a jacking driving assembly 611, and the jacking seat 61 is installed on the upper action part of the vertically arranged jacking driving assembly 611. In this embodiment, the jacking driving assembly 611 adopts a cylinder structure.
[0050] The adjacent edges of the jacking seat 61 away from the box support feeding mechanism and the discharging conveyor 8 are respectively fixedly provided with first side edge blocks 63; the two edges of the jacking seat 61 close to the box support feeding mechanism and the discharging conveyor 8 are respectively movably provided with second side edge blocks 64 and third side edge blocks 65, and the lower parts of the second side edge blocks 64 and the third side edge blocks 65 are respectively connected with the second block lifting driving assembly 641 and the third block lifting driving assembly 651 vertically installed on the jacking seat 61.
[0051] In this embodiment, the second block lifting driving assembly 641 and the third block lifting driving assembly 651 both adopt a cylinder structure. The box support feeding mechanism can comprise a box support conveyor 7 and a box support pushing cylinder 71, the box support conveyor 7 is installed on the side close to the second side edge block 64, and the box support pushing cylinder 71 is installed at a position opposite to the cylinder of the second side edge block 64, which is used to push the box support on the box support conveyor 7 to the jacking seat 61.
[0052] When the box holder is loaded, the second side block 64 is first driven to descend by the second block lifting drive assembly 641, and then the box holder is horizontally supported to the jacking seat 61 by the box holder feeding mechanism, and the second side block 64 is raised. At this time, the box holder is limited between the second side block 64, the third side block 65 and the two first side blocks 63. Then the jacking seat 61 is jacked up by the jacking drive assembly 611, and the box holder with the opening upward is sent to the discharge port 410 below the turnover frame 41, and the box holder is fixed by the box holder fixing assembly at the discharge port 410, so as to complete the loading of the box holder.
[0053] The box holder fixing assembly includes two clamping drive assemblies 461 symmetrically installed at the bottom of both sides of the discharge port 410, and the action part of the clamping drive assembly 461 is fixedly provided with a clamping block 46. The two clamping blocks 46 abut against the opening edge of the box holder to fix it at the discharge port 410. The clamping drive assembly 461 adopts a cylinder structure, and the two cylinder structures are upwardly inclined. When the cylinder structure is elongated, the clamping block 46 can be jacked upwardly and obliquely, so that the opening edge of the box holder is clamped between the bottom of the turnover frame 41 and the clamping block 46.
[0054] When the box holder is sent to the discharge port 410 by the jacking mechanism, the two clamping blocks 46 are driven by the clamping drive assembly 461 to act in the middle, so as to clamp and fix the opening edge of the box holder at the discharge port 410, thereby preparing for the subsequent loading.

The horizontal pushing drive assembly 621 adopts a cylinder structure.
[0056] After the medicine bottles are sent into the box holder by the reverse action of the turnover bottle pushing mechanism 4 and the downward reset of the lifting mechanism 3, the box holder fixing assembly releases the fixation of the box holder, and the box holder falls on the jacking seat 61 again. The jacking mechanism is reset downwardly, so that the jacking seat 61 is at the same horizontal plane as the unloading conveyor 8. The third side block 65 is driven downwardly by the third block lifting drive assembly 651, and then the horizontal pushing block 62 is elongated by the horizontal pushing drive assembly 621, so as to push the box holder on the jacking seat 61 to the unloading conveyor 8.

[0063] Then, the lifting mechanism 3 drives the whole turnover bottle pushing mechanism 4 to move upward, the rear baffle 44 is separated from the horizontal blocking plate 21 and is just blocked at the feeding port of the feeding channel 40 under the action of the first spring 531, so as to limit the medicine bottle group in the feeding channel 40 between the front baffle 43, the rear baffle 44 and the two side baffles 42; under the action of the second spring 222, the lower baffle 22 moves vertically upward and is blocked at the tail end of the feeding conveyor 2;
[0064] After the lifting mechanism 3 drives the turnover bottle pushing mechanism 4 to rise to the highest position, the rotation driving assembly drives the turnover frame 41 to rotate by 100 degrees, so that the medicine bottle group in the feeding channel 40 is in a state that the bottle head is inclined downward, then the third horizontal moving driving assembly drives the bottom plate 45 to move to one side, exposes the discharge port 410, and the bottle pushing driving drives the bottle pushing block 55 to act, pushes the medicine bottle group from the discharge port 410 to the box holder;
[0065] After the medicine bottles are loaded into the box holder, the turnover bottle pushing mechanism 4 is reversely rotated and reset, and the lifting mechanism 3 is also reset downward;
[0066] Afterwards, the box holder fixing assembly releases the fixation of the box holder, and the box holder with the medicine bottles falls on the lifting seat 61 again; the lifting mechanism resets downwards, so that the lifting seat 61 is at the same horizontal plane with the unloading conveyor 8, the third block lifting driving assembly 651 drives the third side block 65 to act downwards, and then the flat pushing driving assembly 621 drives the flat pushing block 62 to extend horizontally, so as to push the box holder on the lifting seat 61 to the unloading conveyor 8;
[0067] The box cover robot 92 grabs the box cover on the box cover conveyor 91 by the box cover clamp 921, and covers the box holder conveyed on the unloading conveyor 8 by the mechanical arm, so as to complete the sealing operation of the medicine bottle package.
