Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drug counting, and in particular to a drug core counting plate. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, in the pharmaceutical production process, pills are usually mass-produced and then packed into aluminum-plastic composite plates. Before packing, in order to avoid empty packing or overpacking, the pills need to be counted. Traditional devices need to pack the pills into the device in batches to count them.
[0003] Related technology can be found in Chinese Patent No. CN222840771U, which discloses a Tibetan medicine pill counter, including a counter body, a counting component, a gripping component, and a decorative component. The counting component includes a counting plate and counting holes. One end of the counter body is connected to the counting plate, which is integrally fixed with the counter body. The counting plate has several counting holes. By gripping the anti-slip texture of the counter body, the counting plate at one end of the counter body is inserted into the Tibetan medicine pill. Since the counting holes of the counting plate have a hollow hemispherical structure, the Tibetan medicine pill will enter the interior of the counting holes. Since the number of counting holes on the counting plate is fixed, the number of Tibetan medicine pills taken out each time is fixed, which is convenient for users to record the number of Tibetan medicine pills.
[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, during the pill counting process, the device is inserted into a large number of pills. After removal, the pills on the device need to be leveled. During the leveling process, the pills are prone to detaching from the counting holes, affecting the counting effect and hindering the improvement of the stability of the device when counting pills. Utility Model Content
[0005] To improve the stability of the device when counting drug cores, this application provides a drug core counting plate.
[0006] This application provides a drug-core counting plate, which adopts the following technical solution: A pill-core counting plate includes a counting plate with several grooves formed along its width on the upper surface of the counting plate. The grooves are arranged along the length of the counting plate and are all parallel to each other. Sealing plates are perpendicularly arranged on both sides of the counting plate along its width, with two sealing plates located at the ends of the grooves respectively. A movable plate is provided between the two sealing plates, and a transparent plate is provided on the side of the movable plate closest to the counting plate. Through holes are formed at the lower ends of the two sealing plates along their length. The end of the movable plate passes through the through holes and is fixedly connected to a fixing plate. When the sealing plates are in contact with the counting plate, the movable plate, under the action of gravity, is close to the side of the through holes closest to the counting plate. At this time, the distance between the transparent plate and the bottom surface of the groove is adapted to the maximum diameter of the pill, and the distance between the two sealing plates is an integer multiple of the maximum diameter of the pill. The transparent plate is in contact with both sealing plates and is parallel to the counting plate.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, pills are placed in batches into the grooves under the support of the counting plate and the sealing plate. The grooves limit the lateral displacement of the pills. Under the limiting effect of the two sealing plates, when the grooves are full, the number of pills in the grooves is a fixed value, which is convenient for counting. The two sealing plates work together to limit and guide the moving plate and the transparent plate. The moving plate is pushed along the through hole, causing the moving plate to move the transparent plate. During the movement of the transparent plate, excess pills outside the grooves are pushed flat, causing the excess pills to fall off the counting plate. At this time, the number of pills remaining in the grooves is the preset value, thus completing the counting of pills. During the counting process, the sealing plate and the transparent plate work together to limit the pills, reducing the probability of pills falling off and improving the stability of the device when counting pills.
[0008] Optionally, the transparent plate includes several straight plates, and an insertion plate is fixedly provided on the lower end face of the movable plate. A receiving groove corresponding to the insertion plate is opened at one end of the straight plate near the movable plate. The insertion plate is located in the groove and fits against the inner wall of the groove. A bolt is threadedly connected to the movable plate. The bolt passes through the movable plate and is threadedly connected to the straight plate. When the straight plate is located directly above the groove, it seals the pill in the required area.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the insertion plate is inserted into the receiving groove, and the rotating bolt passes through the movable plate and is threadedly connected to the straight plate, so that the movable plate fixes and limits the straight plate. The straight plate and the movable plate are detachably connected, and the smoothing area of the transparent plate on the counting plate can be adjusted by disassembling the straight plate, which helps to improve the ease of operation of the device.
[0010] Optionally, the straight plate is adapted to the length of the counting plate, and a vertical plate is fixedly connected to the side of the straight plate away from the moving plate. The vertical plate is set perpendicular to the straight plate. When the transparent plate is directly above the counting plate, the moving plate abuts against the horizontal plate, and the vertical plate abuts against one side of the counting plate.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, when the transparent plate is aligned with the counting plate, the moving plate abuts against the inner wall of one end of the through hole, and the vertical plate abuts against one end of the counting plate, thus positioning the transparent plate and improving the stability of the transparent plate's operation.
[0012] Optionally, the counting plate is slidably connected to a limiting plate along the width direction. The upper end face of the limiting plate is not higher than the lower end face of the transparent plate. The limiting plate is provided with a threaded rod for positioning itself.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting plate is moved vertically to the desired position. The limiting plate restricts the number of pills arranged along the length of the groove. The threaded rod is rotated to make it abut against the counting plate, thereby fixing the limiting plate.
[0014] Optionally, a second fixing plate can be detachably connected to both sides of the limiting plate. Screws are provided between the limiting plate and the second fixing plate, and the limiting plate and the second fixing plate are connected by screws. The second fixing plate is set perpendicular to the limiting plate. The counting plate is located between the two second fixing plates. An extension plate is fixedly connected to the end of the second fixing plate away from the limiting plate. The counting plate is located between the extension plate and the limiting plate. The threaded rod passes through the extension plate and abuts against the lower end face of the counting plate.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting plate and the second fixing plate are detachably connected by screws, allowing the operator to pick up or install the limiting plate. Rotating the threaded rod fixes the extension plate, which in turn fixes the second fixing plate, which in turn fixes the limiting plate. This determines the area to be counted on the counting plate, ultimately determining the number of pills counted, which helps improve the accuracy of the device's counting.
[0016] Optionally, the counting plate is provided with positioning points evenly distributed along its length, and the grooves between adjacent positioning points are vertically aligned.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, operators can determine the number of rows of grooves by observing the upper or lower positioning points, and then count the number of pills, which helps to improve the convenience and accuracy of counting for operators.
[0018] Optionally, grips are fixed on both sides of the counting plate, the height of the grips gradually decreases from the middle to the sides, and the surface of the grips is provided with protrusions along the circumference.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the operator can pick up the counting board by holding the grip plate. The different heights of the grip plate surface make it easier for the operator to hold the counting board, and the protrusions increase the friction when holding it, reducing the probability of the counting board falling from the hand.
[0020] Optionally, a sliding groove is provided on the side of the sealing plates that are close to each other. The sliding groove is located below the through hole and is parallel to the length direction of the through hole. A slider is slidably connected in the sliding groove. An elastic element is fixed on the side of the slider that is away from the sealing plate. A limit rod is fixedly connected between the two elastic elements. The limit rod is located between the counting plate and the transparent plate and is parallel to the length direction of the groove.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the operator slides the limiting rod along the length of the counting plate. Under the support and connection of the elastic element, the limiting rod drives the slider to slide along the length of the slide groove. The slide groove limits the slider, and the slider limits the vertical displacement of the limiting rod through the elastic element. The limiting rod restricts the area of the counting plate along the length direction, which makes it easier for the operator to count a fixed number of pills and helps to improve the accuracy and convenience of the device counting.
[0022] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. Supported by the counting plate and the sealing plate, pills are placed in batches into the groove. The groove limits the lateral displacement of the pills. With the limiting effect of the two sealing plates, the number of pills in the groove is a fixed value when it is full, which is convenient for counting. The two sealing plates work together to limit and guide the moving plate and the transparent plate. The moving plate is pushed along the through hole, which causes the transparent plate to move. During the movement of the transparent plate, excess pills outside the groove are pushed flat, causing them to fall off the counting plate. At this time, the number of pills remaining in the groove is the preset value, thus completing the counting of pills. During the counting process, the sealing plate and the transparent plate work together to limit the pills, reducing the probability of pills falling and improving the stability of the device when counting pills. 2. Insert the insertion plate into the receiving groove, rotate the bolt through the moving plate and thread it to the straight plate, so that the moving plate fixes and limits the straight plate. The straight plate and the moving plate are detachably connected. The area of the transparent plate smoothing the counting plate can be adjusted by disassembling the straight plate, which helps to improve the ease of operation of the device. 3. When the transparent plate is moved so that it is directly opposite the counting plate, the moving plate and the inner wall of one end of the through hole abut against each other, and the vertical plate abuts against one end of the counting plate. This positions the transparent plate and helps to improve the stability of the transparent plate during operation. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to all the accompanying drawings.
[0028] This application discloses a drug core counting plate.
[0029] Example 1 Reference Figure 1A pill counting plate includes a counting plate 1 with multiple grooves 11 for accommodating pills. All grooves 11 are parallel to the width direction of the counting plate 1. The diameter of the grooves 11 is greater than the maximum diameter of the pills but not more than twice the maximum diameter of the pills. When a pill is placed in a groove 11, the pills are arranged only along the length direction of the groove 11. The grooves 11 limit the displacement of the medicine along the length direction of the counting plate 1.
[0030] Reference Figure 1 Two sealing plates 2 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the counting plate 1 along its width direction. Each sealing plate 2 is perpendicular to the counting plate 1, and a through hole 21 is opened laterally at its lower end. A movable plate 3 is provided between the two sealing plates 2, passing through the through hole 21 and slidably connected to the sealing plate 2. The width of the through hole 21 is greater than the thickness of the movable plate 3. Fixed plates 31 are fixedly connected to both ends of the movable plate 3, perpendicular to the movable plate 3. During sliding, the fixed plates 31 maintain contact with the outer side of the sealing plates 2, thereby limiting the displacement of the movable plate 3 along its length direction.
[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A transparent plate 32 is detachably connected to one side of the movable plate 3. The transparent plate 32 is arranged parallel to the counting plate 1. The transparent plate 32 includes several straight plates 321. An insertion plate 34 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the movable plate 3. The insertion plate 34 has a T-shaped cross-section. A receiving groove 35 is opened in the straight plate 321. The insertion plate 34 is inserted into the receiving groove 35 to fix the straight plate 321. A bolt 33 is threadedly connected to the upper end of the movable plate 3. The bolt 33 passes through the movable plate 3 and is threadedly connected to the straight plate 321, thereby further fixing the straight plate 321.
[0032] Reference Figure 1 After the pills are loaded into the groove 11, the moving plate 3, under the influence of gravity, contacts the side of the through hole 21 closest to the counting plate 1. The sealing plates 2 on both sides contact the transparent plate 32, guiding and limiting its movement. The through hole 21 also guides and limits the moving plate 3. The operator pushes the moving plate 3, causing the transparent plate 32 to slide along the length of the sealing plate 2. During this sliding process, the transparent plate 32 pushes any excess pills outside the groove 11 away from the counting plate 1. Finally, the operator vibrates the counting plate 1 to level it, ensuring the pills are tightly packed within the groove 11. The groove 11 can hold a fixed number of pills, facilitating counting. The transparent plate 32 and the sealing plates 2 work together to limit the pills, reducing the probability of them falling out and improving the stability of the device during pill counting.
[0033] Reference Figure 1A vertical plate 37 is fixedly connected to the side of the straight plate 321 away from the moving plate 3. When the transparent plate 32 is pushed so that it faces the counting plate 1, the moving plate 3 abuts against one side of the sealing plate 2, and the vertical plate 37 abuts against one side of the counting plate 1 along its width. The vertical plate 37 and the moving plate 3 cooperate to limit the transparent plate 32, which helps to improve the working stability of the transparent plate 32.
[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A groove 22 is provided on one side of the two sealing plates 2 that are close to each other. The groove 22 is located below the through hole 21 and parallel to the through hole 21. A slider 41 is slidably connected in the groove 22. An elastic element 42, which can be a spring, is fixed on one side of the two sliders 41 that are close to each other. A limiting rod 4 is fixedly connected between the two elastic elements 42. The limiting rod 4 is parallel to the groove 11 and its height is lower than that of the transparent plate 32. The slider 41 limits the vertical displacement of the limiting rod 4. The two springs help reduce the probability of the pill colliding with the limiting rod 4 and being crushed, which helps improve the stability of the device during operation.
[0035] Reference Figure 1 The counting plate 1 is fixed with positioning points 12 at both ends of the groove 11. All positioning points 12 are evenly distributed, which is convenient for operators to refer to and identify the position and number of grooves 11. The positioning points 12 can be coated with different colors to facilitate the identification of the number of grooves 11. At the same time, the number of pills in the groove 11 is counted, which helps to improve the convenience of counting the device.
[0036] Reference Figure 2 When the operator pushes the limiting rod 4 to the desired position along the length of the counting plate 1, the limiting rod 4 restricts the area of the counting plate 1 along the length direction, which makes it easier for the operator to adjust the counting area according to the type of pills or the required quantity for packaging, thus improving the accuracy and convenience of the device's counting.
[0037] Reference Figure 1 The counting plate 1 is fixed with grip plates 6 on both sides. The height of the grip plates 6 gradually decreases from the middle to the sides so that the operator can hold the counting plate 1. Multiple protrusions 62 are fixed on the outer surface of the grip plates 6. The protrusions 62 are arranged around the circumference of the grip plates 6 to increase the friction when the operator holds the grip plates 6, reduce the probability of the counting plate 1 falling from the operator's hand, and help improve the stability of the counting plate 1.
[0038] The implementation principle of a pill-core counting plate in this application embodiment is as follows: the operator limits the required counting area by adjusting the position of the limiting rod 4, the operator loads pills into the groove 11 in batches, pushes the moving plate 3 to slide along the through hole 21, the moving plate 3 drives the transparent plate 32 to slide, the transparent plate 32 compacts and smooths the pills in the groove 11, the sealing plate 2 and the transparent plate 32 cooperate to limit the displacement of the pills in the groove 11, and during the vibration leveling process, the probability of the pills falling off the counting plate 1 is reduced, which helps to improve the stability of the device when counting pills.
[0039] Example 2 The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the counting plate 1 is provided with a limiting plate 5.
[0040] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 Each of the gripping plates 6 has a rectangular hole 61 on one side near the groove 11. A limiting plate 5 is slidably connected to the counting plate 1. The limiting plate 5 is lower than the transparent plate 32 and is set parallel to the length direction of the counting plate 1. Fixed plates 51 are detachably connected to both ends of the limiting plate 5. The fixed plates 51 are set perpendicular to the limiting plate 5 and pass through the rectangular holes 61. When the operator pushes the limiting plate 5 along the length direction of the rectangular holes 61, the limiting plate 5 causes the fixed plates 51 to slide along the rectangular holes 61. The rectangular holes 61 limit and guide the movement of the fixed plates 51.
[0041] After the operator pushes the limit plate 5 to the preset position, he twists the bolt 33 to remove the straight plate 321 corresponding to the remaining area, pushes the remaining straight plate 321 on the moving plate 3, and pushes the excess pills on the groove 11 of the required area to flatten them, so that the operator can obtain the required number of pills and repackage them, which helps to improve the counting accuracy and work convenience of the counting plate 1.
[0042] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 An extension plate 52 is fixedly connected to the side of the fixed plate 51 away from the limiting plate 5. The extension plate 52 is set parallel to the counting plate 1. A threaded rod 53 is connected to the extension plate 52 along a vertical thread. The threaded rod 53 passes through the extension plate 52 and abuts against the lower end face of the counting plate 1. After the operator pushes the limiting rod 4 to the desired position, he rotates the threaded rod 53 to fix the extension plate 52, thereby fixing the fixed plate 51, and finally fixing the limiting plate 5. The limiting plate 5 limits the number of pills that can be accommodated in the groove 11 along its length, which helps to improve the accuracy and convenience of the counting device.
[0043] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
