Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of traditional Chinese medicine packaging technology, specifically relating to an automatic packaging device. Background Technology
[0002] To improve the efficiency of dispensing traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) after decoction, hospitals typically use dispensing equipment. After dispensing, to prevent residual medicine from mixing with new medicine when changing to different varieties or batches, causing cross-contamination and affecting the safety and efficacy of the medicine, the delivery tubes are cleaned. This cleaning is usually done using the equipment's self-cleaning system. However, this system only flushes the tubes; sometimes, due to water pressure or damaged parts, the cleaning effect decreases. In such cases, residual medicine can breed bacteria or even spoil, affecting the quality of the next dispensing. To prevent the tubes from being incompletely cleaned over long-term use, staff need to manually clean them periodically. However, the narrowness of the tubes makes cleaning inconvenient for staff.

[0017] Please see Figures 1-3 This utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic dispensing device, including an automatic dispensing machine body 1, the automatic dispensing machine body 1 including a control box 11, an edge sealing machine 12 and a liquid storage tank 13, the edge sealing machine 12 being fixedly connected to one side of the control box 11, the liquid storage tank 13 being fixedly connected to the top of the control box 11, a drug delivery pipe 2 being fixedly connected to the lower end of one side of the edge sealing machine 12, and a threaded mounting pipe 33 being installed at the bottom of the drug delivery pipe 2, and an arc-shaped connecting plate 3 being symmetrically slidably connected to the bottom of the threaded mounting pipe 33, the two arc-shaped connecting plates 3 being connected to each other. The plates 3 are hinged to each other. The bottom of the arc-shaped connecting plate 3 extends into the inside of the control box 11. The ends of the two arc-shaped connecting plates 3 are each embedded with an adsorption magnetic plate 31, and the ends of the two arc-shaped connecting plates 3 are attracted and fixed to each other by the adsorption magnetic plate 31. The outer side of the two arc-shaped connecting plates 3 is covered with a sealing sleeve 4, and the inner side of the sealing sleeve 4 is fixedly connected with a sealing strip 41. The position of the sealing strip 41 corresponds to the position of the connection at the ends of the two arc-shaped connecting plates 3. The bottom of the arc-shaped connecting plate 3 is fixedly connected to a medicine feeding hopper 32 through a connecting seat 321.
[0018] In this implementation scheme: the control box 11 is the control component of the entire equipment, used to control the opening and closing of the workpieces; the edge sealing machine 12 is used to seal the medicine strip during medicine dispensing; the storage cylinder 13 is used to hold the medicine to be dispensed; and the medicine delivery pipe 2 located on one side of the storage cylinder 13 provides a carrier for connecting the arc-shaped connecting plate 3; the threaded mounting pipe 33 provides a connector for the connection between the medicine delivery pipe 2 and the arc-shaped connecting plate 3. At this time, the medicine delivery pipe 2, with the cooperation of the arc-shaped connecting plate 3, forms a conveying channel for conveying the medicine. The pipe body for conveying the medicine is formed by the two arc-shaped connecting plates 3 being hinged to each other. This allows for a more thorough cleaning of the inner wall of the arc-shaped connecting plate 3 by opening it after dispensing the same type of medicine or after the entire device has been used for a period of time, preventing cross-contamination of different medicines when they are dispensed through the dispensing device. It also prevents the arc-shaped connecting plate 3 from being used inside the machine. During self-cleaning, incomplete removal of residual medicine can lead to bacterial growth and contamination of the conveying channel. The assembly of the medicine delivery tube 2 and the arc-shaped connecting plate 3 facilitates thorough cleaning of the entire conveying assembly, reducing blind spots and simplifying cleaning operations. The sealing sleeve 4, fitted over the arc-shaped connecting plate 3, seals it, preventing leakage at the connection point. This also reinforces the connection. The magnetic adsorption plate 31 embedded at the end of the arc-shaped connecting plate 3 provides a connecting carrier, while the sealing strip 41 within the sealing sleeve 4 further seals the connection between the two magnetic adsorption plates 31, enhancing the sealing effect of the sealing sleeve 4 on the outside of the arc-shaped connecting plate 3.
[0019] The bottom of the delivery tube 2 is fixedly connected to a threaded connecting tube 21, and the threaded mounting tube 33 is threadedly connected to the threaded connecting tube 21; wherein the threaded connecting tube 21 is used to provide a carrier for the connection between the threaded mounting tube 33 and the delivery tube 2.
[0020] Both sides of the sealing strip 41 are fixedly connected to the connecting wall 42, and the connecting wall 42 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the sealing sleeve 4; wherein the connecting wall 42 is used to improve the connection stability between the sealing strip 41 and the inner wall of the sealing sleeve 4.
[0021] The outer side of the sealing sleeve 4 is provided with a compression plate 5, and the position of the compression plate 5 corresponds to the position of the sealing strip 41. The compression plate 5 is used to compress the sealing strip 41 on the outer side of the sealing sleeve 4, so that the sealing strip 41 can fit more tightly on the outer side of the connection between the two arc-shaped connecting plates 3, which helps to further improve the sealing effect of the sealing strip 41 on the connection between the two arc-shaped connecting plates 3.
[0022] Several connecting sleeves 51 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the extrusion plate 5, and the connecting sleeves 51 are sleeved on the outside of the sealing sleeve 4; wherein the connecting sleeves 51 are used to provide a carrier for the connection between the extrusion plate 5 and the sealing sleeve 4.
[0023] The connecting sleeve 51 is slidably connected with a damping limit buckle 52; wherein the damping limit buckle 52 is located outside the connecting sleeve 51, and by adjusting the position of the damping limit buckle 52 outside the connecting sleeve 51, the fit between the connecting sleeve 51 and the sealing sleeve 4 can be adjusted.
[0024] The end of the arc-shaped connecting plate 3 is provided with a mounting groove 311, and the magnetic adsorption plate 31 is fixedly connected to the inside of the mounting groove 311; wherein the mounting groove 311 is used to provide space for the magnetic adsorption plate 31 to be installed.
[0025] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: When dispensing traditional Chinese medicine, the opening and closing of each working part is adjusted by controlling the control box 11. During operation, the medicine liquid in the automatic dispensing machine body 1 enters the arc-shaped connecting plate 3 through the medicine delivery pipe 2, and then enters the sealing machine 12 below through the arc-shaped connecting plate 3. During the dispensing process, the sealing machine 12 seals the medicine liquid. When the entire equipment needs to be thoroughly cleaned after a period of use, or when special cleaning of the medicine delivery pipe 2 and the arc-shaped connecting plate 3 is required, the arc-shaped connecting plate 3 and the medicine delivery pipe 2 can be separated through the threaded installation pipe 33. Then, the extrusion plate 5 is removed from the outside of the sealing sleeve 4. After the extrusion plate 5 is removed from the outside of the sealing sleeve 4, the sealing sleeve 4 is removed from the outside of the arc-shaped connecting plate 3. Then, the two arc-shaped connecting plates 3 are flipped outwards, and the inside of the arc-shaped connecting plate 3 can be cleaned.
