[0026] like Figures 1-3 As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention discloses a medicine cabinet with a layered medicine storage and retrieval mechanism, including a mounting base 1. A synchronous belt type linear module 2 is mounted on the mounting base 1, and a ball screw type linear module 3 is mounted on the slide of the synchronous belt type linear module 2. A hinge seat 4 is mounted on the slide of the ball screw type linear module 3, and a swing arm 5 is hinged to the hinge seat 4 via a pin. A stepper motor 6 is mounted on the hinge seat 4, and the output shaft of the stepper motor 6 is connected to the swing arm 5 via a synchronous belt. A rotary cylinder 7 is mounted on the swing arm 5, and a turntable 8 is mounted on the turntable of the rotary cylinder 7. Vacuum suction cups 9 are installed around the turntable 8, and an industrial camera 10 is installed on the swing arm 5. The vacuum suction cups 9 are used to grab the packaging boxes containing medicines. Under the action of the rotary cylinder 7, at least four kinds of medicines can be transported at one time. During the storage and retrieval process, the barcode on the packaging box containing medicines is identified by the high-speed shooting and image processing technology of the industrial camera 10. The dispensing machine system reads the product label and serial number to realize traceability management. It has the functions of large single storage and retrieval of medicines, storage and retrieval of multiple medicines, and automatic storage and retrieval of medicines. It can also reduce the turnover time of single storage and retrieval of medicines and effectively improve the turnover efficiency of medicine storage.

[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the mounting base 1 has fixing holes 11 on its back side, and the fixing holes 11 are located around it. The access mechanism is fixed to the medicine cabinet by means of bolts through the fixing holes 11.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the tail end of the swing arm 5 is provided with an ear groove 12, and a driven wheel 13 is installed in the ear groove 12. The driven wheel 13 receives the power transmitted by the power source through physical contact (belt drive), thereby enabling the swing arm 5 to perform circumferential movement.

[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the output shaft end of the stepper motor 6 is equipped with a drive wheel 14, and the drive wheel 14 is connected to the driven wheel 13 via a synchronous belt.

Machine vision: By supporting machine vision, the industrial camera 10 can realize machine automation, improve production efficiency and accuracy, and has broad application prospects.

[0034] In use, with the cooperation of the synchronous belt type linear module 2 and the ball screw type linear module 3, movement in the X and Y directions can be realized. The stepper motor 6 drives the swing arm 5 to move in the circumferential direction. The vacuum suction cup 9 grabs the packaging box containing medicines. Under the action of the rotary cylinder 7, at least 4 kinds of medicines can be transported at one time. During the storage and retrieval process, the barcode on the packaging box containing medicines is identified by the high-speed shooting and image processing technology of the industrial camera 10. The dispensing machine system reads the product label and serial number to realize traceability management. It has the functions of large single storage and retrieval of medicines, storage and retrieval of multiple medicines, and automatic storage and retrieval of medicines. It can also reduce the turnaround time of single storage and retrieval of medicines and effectively improve the turnover efficiency of medicine storage.
