[0025] One preferred embodiment of this application, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a pill cutter for automatic tablet cutting and dust collection includes a cutting box 1 and a cover 2 hinged and rotatably mounted on the side of the cutting box 1. A cutting component 21 is mounted on the side of the cover 2, and a dispensing component 3 is mounted inside the cutting box 1. The cutting component 21 and the dispensing component 3 cooperate to cut the tablets to different numbers of tablets. When different numbers of tablets or different types of tablets need to be cut, the cover 2 can be opened, allowing the required number of tablets to be placed into the dispensing component 3. Different types of tablets can also be placed in for simultaneous cutting. After placement... At this point, the cover 2 can be rotated to seal the medicine cutting box 1, preventing the dust from the medicine during the cutting process from drifting to the outside of the medicine cutting box 1. This avoids environmental pollution and harm to the human body caused by the medicine dust, improving the safety and practicality of the device. After the cover 2 is closed, the medicine cutting component 21 can be driven. If cutting two medicines, the corresponding medicine cutting component 21 can cooperate with the corresponding medicine dispensing component 3, so that the medicine cutting component 21 can cut two medicines simultaneously, making it easier to cut the medicines and improving the convenience of the device.

[0026] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it should be understood that a typical medicine dispenser can only cut medicine into halves and quarters, but not into thirds. Therefore, in order to enable the medicine dispenser to meet different needs, the medicine dispensing component 3 includes a three-part section 31 and a four-part section 32. The three-part section 31 is provided to facilitate the three-part cutting of tablets, and the four-part section 32 is provided to facilitate the four-part cutting of tablets. This allows for the selection of different dispensing ratios as needed to meet different medication requirements and enhances the convenience and practicality of operation.

[0027] Understandably, if half is needed, the medicine can be divided into quarters by quartering section 32, thereby forming the required half by taking two quarters of the medicine.

[0028] It should be known that, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in order to better cut the tablets, the tablet cutting component 21 includes two sets of cutting sections, which can be matched with the three-part section 31 and the four-part section 32, thereby enabling the simultaneous cutting of tablets of different proportions and improving cutting efficiency.

[0029] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, it can be understood that a connecting block 11 is provided inside the medicine cutting box 1, and the three-part section 31 includes three placement slots 311 and a through slot 312. The through slot 312 is opened on one side of the connecting block 11, and the three placement slots 311 are circumferentially and equidistantly arranged in the through slot 312, and the slots in the three placement slots 311 are interconnected, so as to facilitate cooperation with the medicine cutting component 21 for cutting medicine. When it is necessary to divide the tablet into thirds, the tablet can be placed on the three placement slots 311, and then the cover 2 can be closed so that the medicine cutting component 21 can be aligned with the position of the three placement slots 311. At this time, the medicine cutting component 21 can be driven so that the medicine placed on the three placement slots 311 can be evenly cut into three equal parts, thereby facilitating better even cutting, improving the practicality and safety of the device, and thus meeting the needs for different quantities of tablets.

[0030] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, it can be understood that in order to stably fix and cut medicines of different sizes, the two sides of the placement groove block 311 are set in a stepped shape. The stepped structure can better adapt to different sizes of tablets, so that tablets of different sizes can be stably fixed on different steps. This makes it less likely for the tablets to shift or slide during the cutting process, ensuring the stability and uniformity of the cutting and improving the applicability and practicality of the device.

[0031] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, it can also be understood that a connecting block 11 is provided inside the medicine cutting box 1, and the four-part 32 includes two placement slots 311 and a through slot 312; the through slot 312 is opened on the other side of the connecting block 11, and the two placement slots 311 are arranged perpendicularly to each other in the through slot 312, and the slots in the two placement slots 311 are interconnected, so as to facilitate cooperation with the medicine cutting component 21 for cutting medicine; when it is necessary to cut the tablet into quarters or halfs, the tablet can be placed on the two placement slots 311, and then the cover 2 can be closed so that the medicine cutting component 21 can be aligned with the position of the two placement slots 311. At this time, the medicine cutting component 21 can be driven so that the medicine placed on the four placement slots 311 can be evenly cut into four equal parts, thereby facilitating better even cutting, improving the practicality and safety of the device, and thus meeting the needs for different quantities of tablets.

[0032] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, it should also be noted that the two ends of the two placement slots 311 are set in a stepped shape, which can accommodate tablets of different sizes, making the tablets more stable when placed, thereby effectively preventing movement or tilting during the cutting process and improving the cutting operation.

[0033] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, it can be understood that a pair of drop openings 12 are provided on the side of the medicine cutting box 1, and the pair of drop openings 12 and the three-part section 31 and the four-part section 32 cooperate with each other; thus, after cutting, the three-part and four-part pill fragments can fall and be collected through the drop openings 12, thereby collecting the cut pills, avoiding the scattering of pill fragments, and improving the convenience and hygiene of use.

[0034] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, it is understood that in order to better retrieve the cut tablets, an inclined filter screen is provided below the drop opening 12, so that the cut tablets can slide down the inclined filter screen into the receiving box 13. Then, it is convenient for users to take out and store the cut tablets. At the same time, the filter screen can prevent dust and debris from entering the receiving box 13, thereby keeping the tablets clean and hygienic.

[0035] In this embodiment, as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, a sliding collection box 14 is provided at the bottom of the cutting box 1. The collection box 14 corresponds to the two drop holes 12 and is used to collect the tablet fragments and dust generated during the cutting process, thereby effectively preventing the tablet fragments and dust from flying and scattering, and maintaining a clean and hygienic working environment. At the same time, the sliding setting of the collection box 14 facilitates regular cleaning and maintenance, improves the ease of use and hygiene of the device, and enhances the overall work efficiency and operational safety. Furthermore, when cutting the medicine, the tablets can be placed on the placement slot 311 and fixed by the trapezoidal structure on the placement slot 311, so that the tablets can be kept fixed during cutting. Then the cover can be closed. 2. The cutting component 21 on the cover 2 is aligned with the corresponding three-part section 31 and four-part section 32. The cutting component 21 can then be driven, allowing it to cooperate with the three-part section 31 and / or four-part section 32 according to usage requirements, thereby cutting the tablets into the required number of pieces. After cutting, the cut tablets fall from the drop outlet 12 through the through groove 312. Subsequently, under the action of the filter screen, the tablet residue or dust is filtered through the filter screen into the collection box 14, while the cut tablets slide along the filter screen into the receiving box 13, achieving effective separation and collection of tablets and dust. The operation is simple, efficient, and safe, effectively improving the accuracy and hygiene of tablet cutting.

[0036] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 4As shown, the drug cutting assembly 21 includes two spring-loaded pushers 211 spring-loaded on the side of the cover 2, and blades 212 on the corresponding pushers 211. The blades 212 are trilobed and cross-shaped to adapt to the cutting requirements of the three-part section 31 and the four-part section 32. When the tablet needs to be cut, the tablet can be placed on the placement slot 311 and fixed by the trapezoidal structure on the placement slot 311, so that the tablet can be kept fixed during cutting. Then the cover 2 can be closed, so that the drug cutting assembly 21 on the cover 2 corresponds to the corresponding three-part section 31 and four-part section 32. At this time, the drug cutting assembly can be driven. 21, thereby enabling the cutting component 21 to cooperate with the three-part section 31 or / and the four-part section 32 according to the usage requirements. During cutting, the push column 211 can be pushed so that the push column 211 can drive the blade 212 to approach and cut the tablet. At this time, the blade 212 can extend into the placement slot 311. Through the mutual squeezing of the blades 212, the cut tablet can fall from the through slot 312 to the drop port 12. Then the tablet falls onto the inclined filter screen and slides along the filter screen into the receiving box 13. The dust and debris generated during the cutting process are intercepted by the filter screen and fall into the collection box 14 below, thereby achieving efficient separation of tablets and impurities.

[0037] The basic principles, main features, and advantages of this application have been described above. Those skilled in the art should understand that this application is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely the principles of this application. Various changes and modifications can be made to this application without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims.
