Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automatic medicine vending machine technology, and in particular to an automatic medicine vending machine product ejection device. Background Technology

[0002] A pharmaceutical dispensing machine is an automated device widely used in hospital pharmacies, drugstores, and other similar settings to store and dispense medicines. Medicines are transported to the dispensing end through the machine's channels, and the dispensing unit dispenses the medicines when needed.

[0003] To address this issue, utility model patent CN218332719U discloses a dispensing mechanism for a vending machine's delivery lane, comprising a housing with a movably mounted gate; a first push-pull electromagnet, connected to the gate via a transmission component, which opens or closes the vending machine's delivery lane; and a blocking component, located behind the gate and hinged at one end to the housing, with a deceleration ramp at its top; and a second push-pull electromagnet, connected to the blocking component, causing the blocking component to pop out or retract with the second push-pull electromagnet. This dispensing mechanism is installed on the vending machine's delivery lane. It avoids the possibility of lightweight items slipping and getting stuck on the deceleration ramp of the blocking component, preventing the blocking component from retracting and thus ensuring the items don't reach the gate and become jammed. It also prevents items from being ejected from the vending machine's delivery lane due to excessively fast or forceful rebound, and solves the problem of excessively steep slopes in the vending machine's delivery lane, which can easily cause items to be swept away.

[0004] However, the dispensing mechanism of the medicine vending machine in this patent has a complex internal structure, redundant functions, and is prone to wear due to the use of gear meshing transmission. The two push-pull electromagnets inside result in a large weight.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to further improve the automatic medicine vending machine's dispenser ejection device. Utility Model Content

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the existing defects and provide an automatic medicine vending machine dispensing device that can dispense medicines from the dispensing channel for easy access. It has the characteristics of simple structure, high reliability and light weight, and can effectively solve the problems in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic medicine vending machine dispensing device, comprising a housing and a storage carrier, wherein limiting grooves are provided on both sides of the rear end of the upper surface of the housing, and limiting rails corresponding to the limiting grooves are provided on both sides of the bottom of the storage carrier, and the housing and the storage carrier are connected by a snap-fit ​​device;

[0008] The rear end of the housing is equipped with a DC electromagnet, the telescopic end of the DC electromagnet is equipped with a T-shaped push rod, the front end of the left and right side surfaces of the housing is equipped with a rotating hole, the housing is equipped with a rotating shaft lifting component, the rotating shaft lifting component is rotatably installed in the rotating hole; the T-shaped push rod is snapped into the inside of the rotating shaft lifting component.

[0009] An auxiliary component is provided on the front side of the upper surface of the housing.

[0010] Preferably, the latching device includes a latching block and a baffle. The latching block is fixed to the rear end of the housing, and the baffle is fixed to the bottom of the storage carrier and has a latching hole. The latching block is engaged inside the latching hole.

[0011] Preferably, the telescopic end of the DC electromagnet is provided with a conical spring, and the two ends of the conical spring are in contact with the outer shell of the DC electromagnet and the T-shaped push rod, respectively.

[0012] Preferably, the rotating shaft lifting component consists of a rotating shaft, an arc-shaped gripper, a lifting block, and a support end. The bottom of the lifting block is connected to the front end of the upper surface of the support end, the rear end of the support end is connected to the rotating shaft, and the rear end of the rotating shaft is connected to the arc-shaped gripper.

[0013] Preferably, the rotating shaft is installed in the rotating hole, and the T-shaped push rod is disposed between the arc-shaped gripper and the support end.

[0014] Preferably, a second limiting block is provided at the front end of the inner upper surface of the housing, a first limiting block is provided at the bottom of the storage carrier, and a micro switch is provided at the front end of the inner surface of the housing.

[0015] Preferably, the auxiliary component consists of a vertical plate and a sliding roller. The upper end of the vertical plate is provided with a circular groove, and the sliding roller is engaged inside the groove. The vertical plate is installed on the front end of the outer surface of the housing.

[0016] The working principle and application principle of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] The housing is installed on the storage carrier by a snap-fit ​​device, so that the limiting slide groove is pressed into the corresponding limiting slide rail, thereby fixing the housing under the storage carrier. This ensures that the relative position of the housing and the storage carrier is fixed when the medicine is dispensed, and the housing will not be displaced when the medicine is dispensed.

[0018] The DC electromagnet can be a push-pull type. During shipment, the extension end of the DC electromagnet is popped outward in a straight line by the electronic control of the DC electromagnet, pushing the T-shaped push rod forward. The pushing force of the T-shaped push rod drives the rotating shaft lifting component to move. At this time, the rotating shaft lifting component rotates around the rotating hole, which can transmit power conveniently, efficiently and accurately.

[0019] When the medicine is ejected outward by force, the auxiliary component allows the medicine to move along the tangent of its contact point with the sliding roller, making the ejection direction of the medicine more stable, reducing friction, and facilitating the quick ejection of the medicine.

[0020] In addition, the upright plate can prevent the medicine from sliding out of the storage carrier when it is not pushed outward by the rotating shaft lifting component.

[0021] The sliding rollers can be made of flexible materials to protect the medicines and prevent them from being worn during the dispensing process.

[0022] The larger end of the conical spring contacts the DC electromagnet, while the smaller end contacts the T-shaped push rod. When the electromagnet is de-energized, the conical spring, through its elastic deformation, generates a restoring force that quickly pushes the T-shaped push rod back to its initial position, achieving mechanical reset. Furthermore, the conical spring's tower-like structure allows it to fully conform to its shape during compression, requiring less axial installation space than a cylindrical spring, resulting in a compact design and optimized space utilization.

[0023] When the rotating shaft lifter rotates along the shaft, it can effectively convert the front-to-back force on the bottom arc-shaped gripper and the lifting block into the force that pushes the medicine outward by the lifting block, thereby realizing the change of force direction and causing the medicine placed in the storage carrier to be pushed outward, thus achieving rapid delivery.

[0024] The lifting block can be made of flexible material to protect the medicine and prevent it from being worn during dispensing.

[0025] Limiting block two can restrict the relative position of the DC electromagnet, preventing displacement when the telescopic end of the DC electromagnet pops outward along a straight line.

[0026] The limiting block can restrict the stroke of the T-shaped push rod, preventing excessive advancement of the T-shaped push rod and resulting in mechanical damage, thereby limiting the lifting amplitude of the rotating shaft lifting component, so that the medicine can be ejected in a direction that is convenient for use.

[0027] The micro switch can send a signal feedback when the T-shaped push rod reaches the advance position, indicating that the rotating shaft lifting component has been lifted.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0029] While achieving the function of automatically ejecting medicines, the internal structure of the device has been simplified, resulting in a smaller overall space occupied by the device, making it easier to install and use, reducing production costs, and making it lighter than traditional medicine ejection devices.

[0030] The use of a rotating shaft lifting component instead of traditional gear transmission improves reliability. Attached Figure Description

[0038] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of the embodiments of this application easier to understand, the embodiments of this application are further described below in conjunction with the figures and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the embodiments of this application.

[0039] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic medicine vending machine dispensing device, including a housing 1 and a storage carrier 6. The upper surface of the housing 1 has limiting grooves 2 on both sides of the rear end. The bottom of the storage carrier 6 has limiting rails 7 on both sides corresponding to the limiting grooves 2. The housing 1 and the storage carrier 6 are connected by a buckling device 5. The buckling device 5 includes a buckle block 51 and a baffle 52. The buckle block 51 is fixed to the rear end of the housing 1. The baffle 52 is fixed to the bottom of the storage carrier 6 and has a buckling hole. The buckle block 51 is engaged inside the buckling hole.

[0040] Specifically, the housing 1 is installed on the storage carrier 6 by a snap-fit ​​device, so that the limiting slide groove 2 is pressed into the corresponding limiting slide rail 7, thereby fixing the housing 1 under the storage carrier 6, thus ensuring that the relative position of the housing and the storage carrier is fixed when the medicine is dispensed, and that it will not be displaced due to the medicine being dispensed.

[0041] The rear end of the housing 1 is provided with a DC electromagnet 9, the telescopic end of the DC electromagnet 9 is provided with a T-shaped push rod 11, the front end of the left and right side surfaces of the housing 1 is provided with a rotating hole 3, the interior of the housing 1 is provided with a rotating shaft lifting member 12, the rotating shaft lifting member 12 is rotatably installed in the rotating hole 3; the T-shaped push rod 11 is snapped into the interior of the rotating shaft lifting member 12.

[0042] Specifically, the DC electromagnet 9 can be a push-pull type DC electromagnet. During shipment, the extension end of the DC electromagnet 9 is popped outward in a straight line by the electronic control of the DC electromagnet 9, pushing the T-shaped push rod 11 forward. The pushing force of the T-shaped push rod 11 drives the rotating shaft lifting member 12 to move. At this time, the rotating shaft lifting member 12 rotates around the rotating hole 3, which can conveniently, efficiently and accurately transmit power.

[0043] An auxiliary component 4 is provided on the front side of the upper surface of the housing. The auxiliary component 4 consists of a vertical plate 41 and a sliding roller 42. The upper end of the vertical plate is provided with a circular groove, and the sliding roller 42 is engaged in the groove. The vertical plate 41 is installed on the front end of the outer surface of the housing 1.

[0044] Specifically, when the medicine is ejected outward by force, the auxiliary component 4 can make the medicine move along the tangent direction of its contact point with the sliding roller 42, making the ejection direction of the medicine more stable, reducing friction, and facilitating the quick ejection of the medicine.

[0045] In addition, the upright plate 41 can prevent the medicine from sliding out of the storage carrier 6 when it is not pushed outward by the rotating shaft lifting member 12.

[0046] The sliding roller 42 can be made of a flexible material to protect the medicine and prevent it from being worn during the dispensing process.

[0047] Furthermore, the telescopic end of the DC electromagnet 9 is provided with a conical spring 91, and the two ends of the conical spring are in contact with the outer shell of the DC electromagnet 9 and the T-shaped push rod 11, respectively.

[0048] Specifically, the larger end of the conical spring contacts the DC electromagnet 9, and the smaller end contacts the T-shaped push rod 11. When the electromagnet is de-energized, the conical spring, through the restoring force generated by its elastic deformation, quickly pushes the T-shaped push rod 11 back to its initial position, achieving mechanical reset. Furthermore, the conical spring's tower-like structure allows it to fit completely when compressed, requiring less axial installation space than a cylindrical spring, resulting in a compact design and optimized space utilization.

[0049] Furthermore, the rotating shaft lifting component 12 consists of a rotating shaft 1202, an arc-shaped gripper 1203, a lifting block 1201, and a support end 1204. The bottom of the lifting block 1201 is connected to the front end of the upper surface of the support end 1204, the rear end of the support end 1204 is connected to the rotating shaft 1202, and the rear end of the rotating shaft 1202 is connected to the arc-shaped gripper 1203. The rotating shaft 1202 is installed in the rotating hole 3, and the T-shaped push rod 11 is disposed between the arc-shaped gripper 1203 and the support end 1204.

[0050] Specifically, when the rotating shaft lifting member 12 rotates along the rotating shaft 1202, it can effectively convert the front-to-back force on the bottom arc-shaped gripper 1203 and the lifting block 1201 into the force that pushes the medicine outward by the lifting block 1201, thereby realizing the change of the direction of the force, so that the medicine placed on the storage carrier 6 is pushed outward, thus achieving rapid delivery.

[0051] The lifting block 1201 can be made of flexible material to protect the medicine and prevent it from being worn during the dispensing process.

[0052] Furthermore, a second limiting block 10 is provided at the front end of the inner upper surface of the housing 1, a first limiting block 8 is provided at the bottom of the storage carrier 6, and a micro switch 13 is provided at the front end of the inner surface of the housing 1.

[0053] Specifically, the limiting block 2 10 can limit the relative position of the DC electromagnet 9, preventing displacement when the telescopic end of the DC electromagnet 9 pops outward along a straight line.

[0054] Limiting block 8 can limit the stroke of T-shaped push rod 11, preventing excessive advancement of T-shaped push rod 11 and mechanical damage, thereby limiting the lifting amplitude of rotating shaft lifting component 12, so that medicine can be ejected in a direction that is easy to use.

[0055] The micro switch 13 can send a signal feedback when the T-shaped push rod 11 reaches the push position, indicating that the rotating shaft lifting component 12 has been lifted.

[0056] It is worth noting that the DC electromagnet 9 can be a push-pull electromagnet from the Langshuoda brand, model: LSD-1253B, DC: 24V; the micro switch 13c can be a micro switch from OMRON, model Z-01HW2255-Bx.

[0057] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein.
