[0003] Most existing intelligent medicine storage and dispensing machines adopt a combination of fixed shelves and robotic arms to complete basic medicine storage and retrieval operations through preset programs. Some devices also have medicine information recognition and inventory statistics functions, which reduces manual intervention to a certain extent.

[0004] However, the existing equipment has a limited range of motion for the robotic arm, making it difficult to accurately connect to all the medicines on the shelf. For medicines located high on the shelf or in the corner, there is a tendency for errors in picking and placing. Furthermore, the lack of flexible movement and adjustment components makes it impossible to adjust the medicine retrieval path in real time according to the medicine's placement location, which affects the accuracy and efficiency of medicine storage and retrieval. Therefore, an intelligent medicine storage and dispensing machine is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0034] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5The present invention provides an embodiment of an intelligent medicine storage and dispensing machine, comprising a cabinet 1, an installation box 2 slidably connected inside the cabinet 1, and a precision positioning mechanism installed on the outside of the installation box 2. This mechanism is the core for achieving precise medicine storage and retrieval. Through coordinated movement in the up and down and left and right directions, the medicine retrieval component can be accurately delivered to the location of the target medicine. An automatic storage and retrieval component is installed inside the cabinet 1.

[0036] The precise positioning mechanism includes a left-right moving component and a right-right moving component. The right-right moving component includes a motor 4, which serves as the power source for the up-down movement. A round rod 5 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 4. The round rod 5 is horizontally positioned and can transmit the power of the motor 4 to both ends. Both ends of the round rod 5 are fixedly connected to bevel gears 6, which rotate synchronously with the round rod 5. Two bevel gears 7 are rotatably connected inside the mounting box 2. Bevel gears 6 and 7 mesh with each other. This bevel gear meshing structure converts the horizontal rotational force of the round rod 5 into a vertical rotational force, achieving a vertical change in the direction of power. Gears 8 are fixedly connected to the outer sides of both bevel gears 7, which rotate synchronously with the bevel gears 7. Two... A rack 3 is vertically oriented and meshes with a gear 8. When the gear 8 rotates, it moves up and down along the rack 3, thereby driving the mounting box 2 and related components to achieve precise vertical displacement. The left and right components include a motor 11, which provides power for left and right movement. The motor 11 is mounted on the top of the mounting box 2, and a gear 10 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 11. The gear 10 rotates synchronously with the output end of the motor 11. A rack 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting box 2 and is horizontally oriented. The gear 10 and rack 9 mesh with each other. When the motor 11 starts, the gear 10 rolls on the rack 9, driving the mounting box 2 and the entire vertical movement component to move left and right.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 6 The automatic storage and retrieval component includes multiple storage boxes 14. A motor 15 is fixedly connected inside each storage box 14, providing power for the storage and retrieval operation. A turntable 16 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 15, which can rotate under the drive of the motor 15. A spiral ring 17 is fixedly connected to one side of the turntable 16. The spiral structure of the spiral ring 17 forms multiple gaps, the gap size of which is adapted to the thickness of the medicine box, so that the medicine box can be properly locked. When medicine needs to be retrieved, the motor 15 drives the turntable 16 and the spiral ring 17 to rotate. The rotation of the spiral ring 17 can transport the medicine box locked in the gap forward. When storing medicine, the spiral ring 17 rotating in the opposite direction will retract the medicine box, realizing the automatic storage and retrieval of medicines.

[0038] Reference Figures 1-3A sliding box 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting box 2. The sliding box 12 protects these two components, reduces external interference, and ensures the meshing accuracy of gear 10 and rack 9. Gear 10 and motor 11 are both installed inside the sliding box 12. A storage box 14, motor 15, turntable 16, and spiral ring 17 are installed on the top of the sliding box 12. The storage box 14 serves as a temporary transfer component in the medicine retrieval process and is linked with the precision positioning mechanism. When the positioning mechanism reaches the target position, the storage and retrieval component on the top of the sliding box 12 can quickly receive medicine boxes sent from the sorting rack 21 or send medicine boxes to be stored into the sorting rack 21. The two spiral rings 17 rotate in the same direction to store or send out the medicine. A protective box 13 is fixedly connected inside the storage box 14. The protective box 13 effectively isolates the motor 15 from external dust, moisture, and collisions during the movement of medicine boxes, ensuring the long-term stable operation of the motor 15 and guaranteeing the conveying accuracy of the spiral ring 17 to the medicine boxes. The motor 15 is installed in the protective box. Inside the cabinet 13, a sliding box 18 is fixedly connected to one side of the cabinet 1. The length of the sliding box 18 is adapted to the height of the cabinet 1. An internal guide structure is provided. The motor 4 is located inside the sliding box 18. The sliding box 18 can guide and limit the motor 4 to prevent the motor 4 from deviating during movement and ensure the transmission stability of components such as the round rod 5 and the bevel gear 6. A classification rack 21 is fixedly connected inside the cabinet 1. Multiple storage boxes 14 are installed inside the classification rack 21 and are distributed in different compartments of the classification rack 21 according to the type and specifications of medicines. Each compartment corresponds to a storage box 14 and a matching motor 15, turntable 16 and spiral ring 17, forming an independent storage and retrieval unit, which facilitates the precise positioning mechanism to quickly find the target medicine. A display screen 19 is installed on the outside of the cabinet 1. The display screen 19 adopts a touch design and integrates an operation interface. Users can input medicine retrieval or storage commands through the display screen 19. The commands will be converted into electrical signals to control the operation of each motor. A storage and retrieval port 20 is opened on the outside of the cabinet 1.

[0039] Working principle: First, when medication needs to be retrieved, the operation is performed on the display screen 19. The internal motor 4 will start, thereby driving the round rod 5 to rotate. The round rod 5 drives the bevel gears 6 at both ends to rotate, thereby driving the bevel gears 7 to rotate, realizing vertical force transformation, driving the gears 8 on both sides to rotate. With the rack 3, the up and down movement can be achieved. By starting the motor 11, the gear 10 is driven to rotate, and the left and right movement can be achieved on the rack 9. This operation can accurately retrieve the medication from the sorting rack 21.

[0040] Secondly, when the position is accurately reached, the motor 15 inside the sorting rack 21 is activated, which drives the turntable 16 to rotate. At this time, the spiral ring 17 rotates, which can transport the medicine box stuck in the gap inside the spiral ring 17 to the front and into the storage box 14 in the medicine retrieval process. Similarly, the motor 15 is activated to retract the medicine box and return it to the storage port 20, thus achieving the purpose of automatically retrieving the medicine. Conversely, the medicine is stored.

[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
