Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary device technology, specifically to an intelligent counting and dispensing device for Western medicine tablets used in pharmacies. Background Technology

[0002] In the pharmaceutical distribution and pharmacy operation system, the counting and dispensing of tablets is a crucial link connecting drug storage and patient medication, directly affecting medication accuracy, pharmacy efficiency, and patient medication safety. With the standardization of the pharmaceutical industry, the upgrading of patients' demands for medication services, and rising labor costs, the limitations of traditional tablet counting and dispensing methods are becoming increasingly apparent.

[0003] 1. Manual counting: Low accuracy, high risk of error; manual counting is the most basic operating method. Pharmacists remove tablets from the bottle by hand and visual inspection, and then dispense them into medicine bags or boxes according to the prescription dosage. Its core problem lies in: 2. Uncontrollable human error: Most tablets are small in size, such as round or oval. Repeated counting over a long period of time can easily lead to visual fatigue and distraction, resulting in "over-counting, under-counting, or omission" - for example, if the prescription requires 20 tablets, but 18 or 22 tablets are actually dispensed, it may result in insufficient or excessive dosage for the patient. 3. Risk of cross-contamination: When people handle tablets directly, the oils and bacteria from their hands may adhere to the surface of the tablets, especially for oral tablets, effervescent tablets and other dosage forms that need to be ingested directly, which violates the requirement of "no contamination of medicines" in the Good Supply Practice for Pharmaceutical Products. 4. Extremely low efficiency: Counting a single prescription takes about 1-3 minutes (depending on the number of pills), which can easily cause queuing congestion during peak pharmacy hours (such as morning and evening peak hours for medication pickup), prolonging patients' waiting time.

It includes a protective shell with a first guide groove on the front. A first roller is movably connected to the inner wall of the first guide groove, and a locking structure is movably connected to the inner wall of the first roller. The locking structure includes a limiting rod, with a handle at one end and a first spring on the back of the handle. In this device, the first roller 2 is inserted into the first guide groove on the front of the protective shell 1, allowing it to slide within the groove. The limiting rod 301 passes through the first roller 2, with one end of the limiting rod 301 passing through a second roller 16. Another end of the limiting rod 301 is inserted into a through hole on the front of a second baffle 12, and the other end of the limiting rod 301 passes through a support frame 4 and is fixed to the handle. On the side of the handle 302, the first spring 303 is fixed to the back of the handle. When the handle 302 is pulled continuously, the limiting rod 301 is moved away from the through hole on the front of the second baffle 12. At this time, the support frame 4 is moved left and right by the first roller 2 and the second roller 16. When the support frame 4 is moved to the corresponding position, the handle 302 is released, the limiting rod 301 is inserted into the through hole on the front of the second baffle 12, and the support frame 4 is restricted from moving. Compared with the existing equipment, the existing equipment may not be able to align with the corresponding position when switching medicine compartments. This equipment achieves the effect of easy movement and fixation in the corresponding position through the first roller 2, the locking structure 3 and the second roller 16, avoiding the situation of not being able to align with the corresponding position.

[0020] The locking structure has a support frame movably connected to its surface. A limit hole is formed at the top of the support frame, and a limit block is movably connected to the inner wall of the limit hole. A pull ring is movably connected to the surface of the limit block, and a first baffle is provided on the surface of the pull ring. A medicine receiving tray is movably connected to the surface of the first baffle, and a medicine receiving hole is formed at the top of the medicine receiving tray.

The device has a medicine compartment. A through hole is provided on the front of the second baffle, and a limiting sleeve is provided on the top of the second baffle. In this device, the limiting block 5 is inserted into the limiting hole at the top of the support frame 4 and passes through the pull ring 6. The first baffle 7 is fixed to the surface of the pull ring 6. The first baffle 7 is inserted into the sliding groove on the front of the medicine receiving tray 8. The surface of the medicine receiving tray 8 has medicine receiving holes, which are perpendicular to the sliding groove. When the first baffle 7 is fully inserted into the sliding groove, it will block the corresponding medicine receiving hole, preventing the tablet from falling into the receiving hole. When it is necessary to block part of the medicine receiving hole, pull the pull ring 6 to the corresponding position and insert the limit block 5 into the corresponding limit hole. Place the base plate 9 at the bottom of the medicine chamber 14, fix the movable plate 10 on both sides of the base plate 9, fix the second spring 11 on the front of the movable plate 10, fix the second baffle 12 to one end of the second spring 11, fix the limit sleeve 13 to the top of the second baffle 12, and insert the medicine chamber 14 into the inner wall of the limit sleeve 13. When the medicine receiving tray 8 pushes the base plate 9 to move, it drives the movable plate 10 to move. Because the second baffle 12 is fixed, the movable plate 19 keeps the second spring 11 in a stretched state. When the push on the base plate 9 stops, the second spring 11 quickly closes the base plate 9. Existing equipment may cause the tablets to be exposed to the outside for too long when taking out the tablets. However, this equipment achieves the effect of conveniently controlling the number of tablets taken out and conveniently and quickly opening and closing the medicine chamber 14 through the medicine receiving tray 8 and the base plate 9, thus avoiding the situation where the tablets are exposed to the outside for too long.

[0021] The bottom of the second baffle is equipped with a support frame, the top of the support frame is provided with a second guide rail groove, the inner wall of the second guide rail groove is movably connected with a second roller, the front of the support frame is fixedly connected with an inclined plate, the bottom of the support frame is fixedly connected with a support column, one side of the protective shell is provided with a medicine outlet, the top of the protective shell is provided with a medicine inlet, the inner wall of the medicine inlet is provided with threads, and the inner wall of the medicine inlet is threadedly connected with a sealing cap.

When the tablet falls, the tablet slides to the medicine outlet on one side of the protective shell 1. The support column 18 is fixed to the bottom of the second support frame 15 to maintain the balance of the device and prevent moisture from entering the medicine chamber. The sealing cap 19 is screwed clockwise into the medicine inlet at the top of the protective shell 1. When using the device, it may be inconvenient to put the tablet into the medicine chamber. This device achieves the effect of convenient tablet putting and maintaining the airtightness of the device and ensuring the shelf life of the tablet through the sealing cap 19, avoiding the inconvenience of putting the tablet into the medicine chamber.

[0022] The working principle of this device is as follows: The first roller 2 is inserted into the first guide groove on the front of the protective shell 1, allowing it to slide within the groove. A limiting rod 301 passes through the first roller 2. One end of the limiting rod 301 passes through the second roller 16. Another end of the limiting rod 301 is inserted into the through hole on the front of the second baffle 12. The other end of the limiting rod 301 passes through the support frame 4 and is fixed to the side of the handle 302. The first spring 303 is fixed to the back of the handle. When the handle 302 is continuously pulled, the limiting rod 301 moves away from the through hole on the front of the second baffle 12. The support frame 4 is moved left and right by the first roller 2 and the second roller 16. When the support frame 4 moves to the corresponding position, the handle 302 is released, and the limiting rod 301 is inserted into the through hole on the front of the second baffle 12.
