Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of medical equipment technology, and in particular to a bottle clamping mechanism and a dispensing device. Background Technology

[0002] In the modern medical field, many operations that were traditionally performed manually are gradually being automated. Automation in the medical field can avoid the impact of human error and reduce medical accidents; compared with manual operation, it greatly improves the speed of operation and enhances medical efficiency.

[0003] Specifically, the preparation of intravenous medications requires rapid extraction. Due to the superior characteristics of the vial, many liquid injectable drugs are stored in vials. In medical institutions, the medication is typically obtained manually. The vial is removed from the box, cut open by hand with a stone shard, and then the liquid is extracted using a syringe and injected into a medication bag for mixing. This process is not only inefficient and unsuitable for large-scale medication administration, but also significantly increases the risk of contamination, making it difficult to meet the needs of patients in large medical institutions. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application discloses a bottle clamping mechanism. In one embodiment, it includes: a clamp comprising a cavity for holding a bottle and a groove communicating with the cavity, the inner wall of the groove being provided with a first magnetic element; and a tightening component cooperating with the clamp, the tightening component being disposed within the groove and movable within the groove in a direction toward or away from the cavity to clamp the bottle. The tightening component includes a slider and a second magnetic element. The second magnetic element is fixed to the slider and cooperates with the first magnetic element. The second magnetic element and the first magnetic element attract each other. When the slider moves toward the cavity to clamp the bottle, the second magnetic element, under the attraction of the first magnetic element, causes the slider to move away from the cavity and return to a preset position. At the preset position, the slider does not exert clamping force on the bottle. To ensure even force distribution on the bottle, two sets of the first magnetic element and the second magnetic element are further provided, symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the slider, further ensuring stability when cutting the bottle neck and opening the bottle. The design of the bottle clamping mechanism, which consists of multiple sets of clamps, increases the number of medicines that can be dispensed and improves the efficiency of medicine dispensing. It completes the opening of multiple bottles, extraction of medicine, and collection of empty bottles in one rotation cycle. At the same time, in the mechanical operation process, compared with the traditional manual operation of cutting the bottle with sand and stone and then breaking it open by hand, it can reduce the risk of contamination of the medicine, thus having a significant effect.

[0005] In another embodiment of the bottle clamping mechanism of this application, the clamp further includes a through hole for mounting a rotating shaft structure. The bottle clamping mechanism also includes a bottle release assembly, which includes a rotating shaft and a support rod. The rotating shaft is connected to the clamp through the through hole, and the support rod is connected to the rotating shaft. The support rod provides support for the bottle. Rotation of the rotating shaft changes the position of the support rod, causing the bottle to lose its support and fall. This mechanically controlled, non-contact method for collecting medicine bottle residue avoids the risk of contamination caused by manual operation.

[0006] In another embodiment of the bottle clamping mechanism of this application, the bottle release component further includes a trigger rod. When the trigger rod is triggered, it drives the rotating shaft to rotate, causing the support rod to shift and disengage from the supporting force on the bottle. A trigger barrier is set in the device. When the trigger rod collides with the trigger barrier, the rotating shaft rotates. This method has a simple structure and low cost. Alternatively, a control component can be set through a central control system to set conditions to trigger the trigger rod. This method can increase the flexibility of control and can be applied to various scenarios.

[0007] In another embodiment of the bottle clamping mechanism of this application, the outer surface of the slider is provided with a ball bearing. The ball bearing cooperates with the first trigger member. The ball bearing has an elastic structure inside, which enables the slider to be elastically compressed, avoiding rigid resistance that could cause the bottle to break, and further avoiding the risk of the bottle being crushed.

[0008] In another embodiment of the bottle clamping mechanism of this application, the clamp is provided with a connecting structure, which enables multiple bottles to be spliced ​​and combined.

[0009] This application also discloses a dispensing device, comprising: a turntable including at least one bottle clamping mechanism as described in any of the above embodiments, and a triggering component disposed on one side of the turntable. When the bottle clamping mechanism rotates to the triggering component, the triggering component and the tensioning component cooperate to press the slider against the bottle in the cavity.

[0010] The dispensing device in another embodiment of this application further includes a bottle cutting assembly and a bottle opening assembly. The bottle cutting assembly and the bottle opening assembly are disposed on one side of the bottle clamping mechanism. When the triggering assembly and the tightening assembly cooperate to press the slider against the bottle in the cavity, the bottle cutting assembly cuts the bottle neck of the bottle in the cavity, and the bottle opening claw removes the top of the bottle in the cavity.

[0011] In another embodiment of the drug dispensing device, the drug dispensing device further includes a disinfection component, which is disposed on one side of the bottle clamping mechanism to disinfect the passing bottles. The disinfection method can be spraying or wiping. This disinfection component can reduce the risk of contamination and lower the disinfection level requirements for the usage scenario.

[0012] In another embodiment of the drug dispensing device, the drug dispensing device further includes a protective housing, which encloses the bottle cutting assembly and the bottle opening assembly. This protective housing can prevent splashing liquid and glass shards generated during bottle opening from affecting the transmission structure, and can also prevent liquid contamination, while facilitating maintenance.

[0013] In another embodiment of the drug dispensing device, the drug dispensing device further includes a central control module for controlling the drug dispensing process, which can digitize the drug dispensing process and dosage data, facilitate control and management, increase efficiency, and reduce error rate.

[0014] The dispensing device of this application can automatically cut bottles, which greatly improves dispensing efficiency. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The present application will now be described in detail with reference to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it should be noted that these embodiments are not intended to limit the present application. All equivalent changes or substitutions in function, method, or structure made by those skilled in the art based on these embodiments are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0025] It should be understood that in this application, the terms "center," "longitudinal," "lateral," "length," "width," "thickness," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," "outer," "axial," and "radial," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this technical solution and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this technical solution.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 As shown, this application discloses a turntable 100, which includes at least one bottle clamping mechanism 1000. This bottle clamping mechanism 1000 can be used to clamp ampoules, but this application is not limited to this and can also be used to clamp other types of bottles. (Continue referring to Figure 2-) Figure 5The bottle clamping mechanism 1000 includes a clamp 1100 and a tightening assembly 1200 that cooperates with the clamp 1100. The clamp 1100 includes a cavity 1101 for placing the bottle and a groove 1103 located on one side of the cavity 1101 and communicating with the cavity 1101. A first magnetic element 1105 is provided on the inner wall of the groove 1103. The tensioning component 1200 is disposed within the groove 1103. The tensioning component 1200 can move within the groove 1103 in a direction toward or away from the cavity 1101 to press the bottle. The tensioning component 1200 includes a slider 1201 and a second magnetic element 1202. The second magnetic element 1202 is fixed to the slider 1201 and is configured to cooperate with the first magnetic element 1105. The second magnetic element 1202 and the first magnetic element 1105 attract each other. When the slider 1201 moves toward the cavity 1101 to press the bottle, the second magnetic element 1202 generates a pulling force under the attraction of the first magnetic element 1105, causing the slider 1201 to move away from the cavity 1101 and return to a preset position. At the preset position, the slider 1201 does not generate a pressing force on the bottle.

[0027] Figure 3 The diagram shows the bottle being pressed. At this time, the slider 1201 is in the state of pressing the bottle under the action of external force. Due to the attraction between the second magnetic component 1202 and the first magnetic component 1105, the second magnetic component 1202 tends to move closer to the first magnetic component 1105. When the external force disappears, the slider 1201 will move away from the groove 1103.

[0028] This application does not impose any particular restrictions on the size, shape, or specific installation position of the first magnetic element 1105 and the second magnetic element 1202. Those skilled in the art can flexibly design their combination. The only requirement is that when the external force applied to the slider to compress the bottle disappears, the second magnetic element 1202 in the slider can attract the slider to return it to a preset position. Specifically, in one embodiment of this application, the first magnetic element 1105 can be either 11051 or 11052, and the second magnetic element 1202 can be either 12021 or 12022. In another embodiment of this application, the first magnetic element 1105 may include both 11051 and 11052, and the second magnetic element 1202 may be 12021 or 10222, or both 12021 and 12022. To ensure uniform force distribution on the bottle body, the first magnetic element 1105 is symmetrically arranged with 11051 and 11052, and the second magnetic element 1202 is symmetrically arranged with 12021 and 12022. In another embodiment of this application, the distribution of the second magnetic element 1202 in the slider 1201 can be either a centrally located magnetic element (not shown in the figure) or a uniform or non-uniform arrangement of multiple magnetic elements (not shown in the figure). The first magnetic element 1105 may be disposed in one or more magnetic elements on the side wall of the corresponding groove 1103.

[0029] The clamp 1100 also includes a through hole 1102, which is configured to cooperate with the cavity 1101 and the groove 1103. 1102 is a hole that can install a rotating device, and its specific position is not limited as long as it does not affect the function of the cavity 1101 and the groove 1103. The bottle clamping mechanism also includes a bottle release assembly 1300, which includes a rotating shaft 1301 and a support rod 1302. The rotating shaft 1301 is connected to the clamp 1100 through the through hole 1102, and the support rod 1302 is connected to the rotating shaft 1301. The support rod 1302 is located at the bottom of the cavity 1101. When the bottle is in the cavity 1101, the support rod 1302 provides support for the bottle. When the rotating shaft 1301 rotates, it changes the position of the support rod 1302, and the bottle falls off due to the loss of support from the support rod 1302. The collection of medicine bottle residue is achieved through a non-contact, mechanically controlled method, avoiding the risk of contamination caused by manual operation.

[0030] The bottle-removing assembly 1300 also includes a trigger rod 1303. When triggered, the trigger rod 1303 drives the rotating shaft 1301 to rotate, causing the support rod 1302 to displace and disengage from the bottle. The rotating shaft 1301 has a spring-loaded function; when the triggering condition is not met, the rotating shaft 1301 returns to its original preset position under the spring-loaded force, resetting the support rod 1302 to the lower position of the cavity 1101. Alternatively, a triggering barrier can be set in the device. When the trigger rod 1303 collides with the barrier, the rotating shaft 1301 rotates. This method is simple in structure and low in cost. Another method is to use a central control system to set up a control component. After issuing a trigger command, the rotating shaft 1301 is rotated mechanically. This method increases control flexibility and can be applied in various scenarios.

[0031] The outer surface of the slider 1201 is provided with a ball 1203. The ball 1203 protrudes relative to the shell and can cooperate with the first trigger 210 and the second trigger 220 of the trigger assembly 200. The ball has an elastic structure inside, which enables the slider 1201 to be linearly compressed, avoiding rigid collisions that could cause the bottle to break.

[0032] refer to Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, this application also discloses a dispensing device, including a turntable 100 composed of at least one bottle clamping mechanism 1000, a clamping assembly 200, a bottle cutting assembly 2000, and a bottle opening assembly 3000.

[0033] The turntable 100 can be equipped with one or more bottle clamping mechanisms 1000. The turntable 100 can be connected to a power source (not shown in the figure). When the turntable 100 rotates, it can move the bottle clamping mechanism 1000 to the bottle cutting component 2000 or the bottle opening component 3000 to complete the corresponding bottle cutting or opening action.

[0034] The trigger component 200 can be a fixed component that cooperates with the turntable 100 but does not rotate with the turntable 100. The trigger component 200 can be configured according to the bottle clamping mechanism 1000, the bottle cutting component 2000, and the bottle opening component 3000 on the turntable 100. Thus, when the corresponding bottle clamping mechanism 1000 rotates to the bottle cutting component 2000 or the bottle opening component 3000, pressure can be applied to the tensioning component 1200 through the corresponding first trigger 210 and second trigger 220. In one embodiment of this application, the first trigger 210 and the second trigger 220 can be protruding structures, which can apply a certain pressure to the ball bearing 1203 that protrudes from the clamping surface without hindering the rotation of the turntable 100.

[0035] The bottle-cutting assembly 2000 and the bottle-opening assembly 3000 are disposed on one side of the turntable 100. The trigger assembly 200 and the tensioning assembly 1200 cooperate to cause the slider 1201 to press the bottle body in the cavity 1101. After the bottle body is pressed, the cutting blade assembly on the bottle-cutting assembly 2000 cuts the neck of the pressed bottle body. The trigger assembly 200 and the tensioning assembly 1200 cooperate to cause the slider 1201 to press the bottle body in the cavity 1101. After the bottle body is pressed, the bottle-opening claw removes the top of the bottle body that has passed through the cavity.

[0036] The dispensing device also includes a disinfection component 4000, which is disposed on one side of the bottle clamping mechanism 1000 to disinfect the passing bottles. This disinfection component can reduce the risk of contamination and lower the disinfection level requirements for the usage scenario.

[0037] The dispensing device also includes a protective housing 5000, which encloses the bottle cutting assembly 2000 and the bottle opening assembly 3000. The protective housing is also provided with a cutting hole 5001, a disinfection hole 5002, and a bottle opening hole 5003, which can prevent splashing liquid and glass fragments generated during bottle opening from affecting the transmission structure, prevent liquid contamination, and facilitate maintenance.

[0038] The medication dispensing device also includes a central control module 6000 for controlling the medication dispensing process. This module can digitize the medication dispensing process and dosage data, making it easier to control and manage, increasing efficiency, and reducing error rates.

[0039] The detailed descriptions listed above are merely specific descriptions of feasible implementation methods of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. All equivalent implementation methods or modifications made without departing from the spirit of the art of this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application.

[0040] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this application is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that this application can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this application. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this application is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within this application. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0041] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity.
