Figure 3 As shown, the transmission worm 3 is rotatably mounted on the inner side of the mounting hole in the middle of the support base 1 via a rotating shaft. In order to drive the transmission worm 3, a worm gear groove is provided at the lower part of the flip support 4. The transmission worm 3 is meshed with the worm gear groove. The first drive motor 2 is fixedly mounted in the middle of the front side of the support base 1 for driving the transmission worm 3. The drive shaft end of the first drive motor 2 is fixedly mounted with the shaft end of the transmission worm 3. An adjustable tilting turntable mounting structure is adopted. The rotating shaft is used to flip and support the flip support 4, and the flip support 4 is flipped and driven by the worm gear transmission structure. During operation, the tilt angle of the storage box seat 8 can be flexibly adjusted according to the type of tablet to ensure that the tablet and the fitting hole seat 7 are in a highly efficient and stable fitting state. The structure is simple and easy to adjust, so that the device can efficiently and stably complete the counting of different tablets. It has excellent work applicability and usage flexibility.
[0027] The tablet holder mechanism is used for counting tablets. The mechanism includes a second drive motor 5, a drive turntable 6, a fitting hole seat 7, and a storage box seat 8, as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 3 As shown, the lower part of the storage box base 8 is fixedly installed to the upper support part of the flip support 4 by bolts. The drive turntable 6 is driven to rotate and installed inside the storage box base 8 by the second drive motor 5. Specifically, see attached... Figure 5As shown, the second drive motor 5 is fixedly installed on the bottom center of the storage box base 8. The bottom center of the drive turntable 6 is fixedly installed with the drive shaft end of the second drive motor 5. The fitting hole seat 7 is detachably installed on the upper part of the drive turntable 6 by means of a protrusion engaging and limiting. Specifically, in order to facilitate the connection and installation of the fitting hole seat 7, mounting grooves 12 are symmetrically arranged through both sides of the upper part of the drive turntable 6. The mounting grooves 12 are adapted to the fitting hole seat 7, and the fitting hole seat 7 is fitted into the inner side of the mounting groove 12. The inner side of the mounting groove 12 is provided with... The spherical groove and the side of the fitting hole seat 7 are fixed with spherical protrusions. After installation, the spherical protrusions and the spherical groove are fitted and connected. The fitting hole seat 7 is a split type. The fitting hole seat 7 is connected and installed by the protrusions for locking and limiting. The structure is simple and easy to disassemble and assemble. During use, the fitting hole seat 7 can be flexibly selected and replaced according to the tablet specifications, so that the device can meet the counting and dispensing needs of different types of tablets, which greatly improves the flexibility of the device. In order to facilitate the fitting and counting of tablets, tablet fitting holes are evenly provided through the upper part of the fitting hole seat 7.
[0028] To facilitate the expulsion of the tablet after embedding, as shown in the attached document... Figure 4 As shown, a discharge port 13 is provided on one side of the lower part of the storage box base 8. In order to facilitate the discharge of tablets, a discharge box base 10 is fixedly installed on the lower opening side of the discharge port 13 by bolts. A discharge pipe 11 is fixedly connected to the side of the discharge box base 10. In order to improve the tablet embedding efficiency, a vibrator 9 is fixedly installed on the other side of the lower part of the storage box base 8. The vibrator 9 is an eccentric vibration generator in the prior art. The vibrator 9 is equipped with a motor and an eccentric counterweight. The eccentric counterweight is fixedly installed on the rotating shaft end of the motor and provides vibration assistance to the device through eccentric rotation.
[0029] The working principle or structural principle is as follows: During operation, a matching hole seat 7 of the corresponding specification is selected according to the specifications of the dispensing tablets. During installation, the matching hole seat 7 is aligned with the mounting groove 12 on the upper part of the drive turntable 6. Then, the matching hole seat 7 is fitted into the inner side of the mounting groove 12 by pressing against the edge. After installation, the spherical protrusion on the side of the matching hole seat 7 engages and locks with the spherical groove in the mounting groove 12, thus locking and limiting the installation of the matching hole seat 7. Then, the tilt angle parameter is set through the operation panel, and the first drive motor 2 drives the transmission worm gear 3 to drive the flip support 4 to flip, so that the storage box seat 8 is installed at a fixed tilt angle. After adjustment, the working effect of the device is verified by adding tablets through experiments. The device is then adjusted according to the experimental results. The tilt angle of the storage box seat 8 is further calibrated and adjusted to complete the adjustment and calibration of the device. Then, the tablets are put into the storage box seat 8. The second drive motor 5 drives the drive turntable 6 to rotate at a constant speed. When the fitting hole seat 7 is at the lowest side, the fitting hole seat 7 is covered by the tablets. At the same time, the vibration of the lower vibrator 9 helps the tablets to be embedded in the holes of the fitting hole seat 7. Then, the tablets are moved upward by the rotation. When the tablets move to the discharge outlet 13 of the storage box seat 8, the tablets that are no longer supported and are embedded in the fitting hole seat 7 fall naturally into the discharge box seat 10. Then, the tablets are discharged through the discharge pipe 11 by the guide of the inclined part of the discharge box seat 10, thus completing the counting and dispensing of the tablets.
[0030] In summary, this tablet counter adopts an adjustable-angle turntable mounting structure. A rotating shaft supports the flip support 4 for flipping and mounting, and a worm gear transmission structure drives the flip support 4 to flip. During operation, the tilt angle of the storage box seat 8 can be flexibly adjusted according to the tablet type, ensuring that the tablets and the fitting hole seat 7 are in a highly efficient and stable fitting state. The structure is simple and easy to adjust, enabling the device to efficiently and stably complete the counting of different tablets. It has excellent applicability and flexibility. Furthermore, the use of a split fitting hole seat 7, connected and installed through a protrusion locking limit, makes the structure simple and easy to disassemble and assemble. During use, the fitting hole seat 7 can be flexibly selected and replaced according to the tablet specifications, allowing the device to meet the counting and dispensing needs of different types of tablets, greatly improving the device's flexibility.
