Fig. 2 is an overall schematic diagram showing a pickup mechanism 20 according to an example of the present invention. Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram showing the pick-up mechanism 20 according to the example of the present invention picking up the medicine bottle 2.

In some examples, with reference to fig. 1, 2 and 3, the magazine mechanism 10 can be used to store the vials 2 and to push and release the vials 2. The pick-up mechanism 20 may cooperate with the magazine mechanism 10 to provide access to the vials 2 contained in the magazine mechanism 10. In some examples, the pick mechanism 20 may be located on a side of the magazine mechanism 10 (e.g., a side proximate the mouth 102 of the vial magazine 101). In some examples, the pickup mechanism 20 may have a gripping and moving function. In some examples, the pick mechanism 20 may be movable relative to the magazine mechanism 10. In this case, the pick-up mechanism 20 can move to the magazine mechanism 10 to pick up the vial 2.

Fig. 4 is a schematic diagram showing that the vial 2 according to the example of the present invention is stored in the vial magazine 101.

In some examples, the cartridge mechanism 10 may include a base 100, a push portion 110, and a stop portion 120 (see fig. 1). Wherein the base 100 can be used for accommodating the medicine bottle 2, the pushing portion 110 can be used for pushing the medicine bottle 2 accommodated in the base 100, and the blocking portion 120 can be used for openably blocking the medicine bottle 2 from staying at the base 100 and releasing the medicine bottle 2 under the action of the picking mechanism 20.

In some examples, the base 100 may include a vial magazine 101 (see fig. 1). The vial magazine 101 may be used to store vials 2. In this case, the medicine bottle 2 may be stored in the medicine bottle magazine 101.

In some examples, the vial magazine 101 may have a magazine mouth 102, and the magazine mouth 102 may be located at one end of the vial magazine 101 and used to provide a pick-up outlet for the vials 2, in an openable state. In some examples, the vial magazine 101 may have a magazine tail, which may be located at the other end of the vial magazine 101 opposite the magazine mouth 102.

In some examples, the vial magazine 101 may be elongated and the width of the vial magazine 101 is approximately the same as the diameter of the stored vials 2. In this case, the vial magazine 101 can store a plurality of vials 2, and the plurality of vials 2 may be sequentially aligned in a row along the longitudinal direction of the vial magazine 101.

In some examples, the base 100 may include a bottom plate 103 having an elongated shape and at least two side plates 104 disposed on the bottom plate 103 in parallel along a length direction of the bottom plate 103, and the bottom plate 103 and the at least two side plates 104 may cooperate to form the vial magazine 101 (see fig. 4). In some examples, the bottom panel 103 and two adjacent side panels 104 on the bottom panel 103 may cooperate to form one vial magazine 101 (see fig. 4). In some examples, the base 100 may include a plurality of vial depots 101 (see fig. 4). In this case, more vials 2 can be stored by the base 100 having a plurality of vial magazines 101.

In some examples, the plurality of vial depots 101 may vary in width. Thereby enabling storage of different types of medicine bottles 2. In some examples, the magazine mechanism 10 may include a plurality of bases 100 having a plurality of vial magazines 101. Thereby, more vials 2 can be stored.

In some examples, the width of the mouth 102 may be about the same as the diameter of the vial 2, or slightly larger than the diameter of the vial 2. In this case, the number of vials 2 released out of the vial magazine 101 via the magazine mouth 102 is one at a time.

In some examples, the base 100 may be used to place vials 2 of the type ampoule or vial 2 of the type penicillin bottle, and the base 100 may also be used to place other types of vials 2. In some examples, when a base 100 having a plurality of vial magazines 101 is used to store different types of vials 2, the size of each vial magazine 101 may be adapted to the size of the corresponding vial 2. That is, the size of the vial magazine 101 can be adjusted according to the size of the vials 2 to be stored. The dimensions of the vial magazine 101 include, but are not limited to, the length, width, and height of the vial magazine 101.

In some examples, the push portion 110 may be disposed on the base 100, and the push portion 110 may move along the vial magazine 101. In some examples, the pushing portion 110 may be configured to continuously push the vial 2 along the vial magazine 101 towards the magazine mouth 102. In other words, the pushing portion 110 has a tendency to continuously push the medicine bottle 2 toward the gate 102.

Fig. 5a is a schematic view showing a barrier 120 in a closed state according to an example of the present invention; fig. 5b is a schematic diagram illustrating the barrier 120 according to the present invention in an open state (for more clearly illustrating the schematic diagram of the barrier 120 in different states, partial lines are omitted in fig. 5a and 5 b). Fig. 6 is a schematic view illustrating a connection relationship of the stopper 120 and the base 100 according to an example of the present invention (in order to better show the connection relationship of the stopper 120 and the base 100, fig. 6 separates the stopper 120 from the base 100 in a direction in which the opening member 122 is movable, and the actual stopper 120 is located on the base 100 as shown in fig. 6). Fig. 7 is an overall schematic view showing the barrier section 120 according to an example of the present invention. Fig. 8 is an exploded view showing the barrier section 120 according to the example of the present invention.

In some examples, the stop 120 may be located at the mouth 102 of the vial magazine 101. In some examples, the barrier 120 may be configured to be openable or closable. A state in which the stopper 120 is located at the mouth 102 of the cartridge 101 is referred to as a closed state (see fig. 5 a), and a state in which the stopper 120 is completely removed from the mouth 102 of the cartridge 101 is referred to as an open state (see fig. 5 b).

In some examples, when the stopper 120 is in a closed state, the vial 2 may be blocked from exiting the mouthpiece 102. Referring to fig. 5a, the situation shown in fig. 5a is the state when the blocking portion 120 is closed. In this case, when the cartridge 101 carries the vial 2 and the blocking portion 120 is closed (i.e., the blocking portion 120 is in the closed state (see fig. 5 a)), the blocking portion 120 can block the vial 2 in the cartridge 101, and when the blocking portion 120 is opened (i.e., the blocking portion 120 is in the open state (see fig. 5 b)), the vial 2 is moved to the mouth 102 by the continuous action of the pushing portion 110 to be taken out.

In some examples, the stopper 120 may include an elastic member 121, an opening member 122, and a rotating member 125 (see fig. 6). The rotating member 125 may be used to block the medicine bottle 2 from coming out of the medicine bottle magazine 101 in the closed state, the opening member 122 may be used to push the rotating member 125 to rotate to switch between the open state and the closed state, and the elastic member 121 may be used to return the opening member 122 (returning the opening member 122 means returning the blocking portion 120 to the closed state).

In some examples, both ends of the elastic member 121 may be connected with the base 100 and the opening member 122, respectively. Thereby, the opening member 122 can be movably disposed on the base 100 through the elastic member 121. In other words, the opening member 122 can move relative to the base 100. In some examples, the elastic member 121 may be a spring. In some examples, the elastic member 121 may be a compression spring, preferably. This makes it possible to more easily return the opening member 122.

In some examples, the opening member 122 may include a straight column 123 and a slider 124 (see fig. 6 and 7). In some examples, the straight column 123 and the slider 124 may be fixed together and no relative movement may occur. In this case, the slider 124 can be driven to move by driving the rectilinear motion column 123 to move.

In some examples, it is preferable that the straight column 123 and the slider 124 may be fixed by a bolt therebetween. In this case, the column 123 and the slider 124 can be separately installed in the base 100 and fixed after being installed, and the opening member 122 can be more conveniently installed.

In some examples, the rectilinear post 123 may be connected with the elastic member 121, the base 100 may have a rectilinear groove 105 for the rectilinear post 123 to move, and the rectilinear groove 105 may be a groove structure located inside the base 100 (see fig. 6). As shown in fig. 6, the straight groove 105 can be regarded as a movable groove body for the straight column 123, and the moving path of the straight column 123 can be limited by the straight groove 105.

In some examples, the straight column 123 can have an initial position and an open position. When the blocking portion 120 is in the closed state, the straight traveling post 123 is located at the initial position; when the blocking portion 120 is in the open state, the straight column 123 is located at the open position. Thus, the stopper 120 can be switched between the closed state and the open state by moving the column 123 between the initial position and the open position.

In some examples, the slider 124 may be located on a sidewall of the straight column 123, and the slider 124 may be used to push the rotating member 125 to rotate. In some examples, the edge of the slider 124 that contacts the rotating member 125 may be curved. In this case, the sliding block 124 can more conveniently push the rotating member 125 to rotate according to the mechanical principle.

In some examples, the base 100 may have a runner 106 that cooperates with a slider 124. Thereby, the moving path of the slider 124 can be restricted. The force F applied to the straight column 123 along the straight slot 105 shown in fig. 6 can move the straight column 123 on the straight slot 105, and drive the sliding block 124 to move on the sliding slot 106, so as to drive the rotating member 125 to rotate.

In some examples, the rotating member 125 may include a fixed shaft 126, a stopper 127, and an elastic element 128 (see fig. 6). The stopper 127 may be rotatably fixed to the base 100 by a fixing shaft 126, and an elastic member 128 may be used to return the stopper 127. In some examples, the base 100 may have a rotation slot 107 (see fig. 6) through which the stopper 127 may rotate.

In some examples, the elastic member 128 may be a torsion spring, the elastic member 128 may have coils and arms, and the fixed shaft 126 may be disposed through the coils of the elastic member 128 (see fig. 6 and 7). Referring to fig. 7 and 8, the stopper 127 may have a through hole parallel to the axial direction of the fixing shaft 126, and the fixing shaft 126 may be disposed to pass through the through hole. The stopper 127 may further have an inclined groove perpendicular to the through hole, the coil of the elastic element 128 may be located in the inclined groove, and the elastic element 128 may have two arms, one arm of the two arms may abut against the inclined groove, and the other arm of the two arms may abut against one surface of the rotation groove 107 of the base 100. Thus, the stopper 127 can be more conveniently provided with a return elastic force by the elastic member 128.

In some examples, the slider 124 may be coupled to the stop 127. Referring to fig. 6, the sliding block 124 may abut against a sidewall of the stop 127, and when the sliding block 124 is moved, the stop 127 may be pushed to rotate.

In some examples, referring to fig. 5a and 5b, in the closed state, the stopper 127 has a first position at the bin mouth 102, that is, the closed state when the stopper 127 is in the first position (see fig. 5 a); in the open state, the stop 127 has a second position away from the bin mouth 102, i.e. the open state is when the stop 127 is in the second position (see fig. 5 b).

In some examples, with reference to fig. 5a and 5b, in the closed state, due to the action of the elastic element 128, the stopper 127 is in a position inclined to the side plate 104 of the base 100, and this position can block the medicine bottle 2 from coming out of the bin mouth 102 (see fig. 5 a). When the opening member 122 moves in the direction D1 as shown in fig. 5a (i.e. when the straight post 123 moves relative to the base 100 and moves from the initial position to the opening position), the slider 124 contacting the stopper 127 applies a pushing force to the stopper 127, and the stopper 127 rotates around the fixed shaft 126 to a position away from the bin mouth 102 (i.e. the slider 124 pushes the stopper 127 to rotate from the first position to the second position) (see fig. 5 b). At this time, the bin mouth 102 is not blocked by the stopper 127, and the medicine bottle 2 is pushed by the pushing portion 110 to move from one side of the rotating member 125 to the other side of the rotating member 125 (i.e., to continue to move to the bin mouth 102 along the direction of the medicine bottle bin 101 toward the bin mouth 102), so that the medicine bottle 2 is located at a position where it can be easily picked up by the picking mechanism 20. In this process, the elastic element 128 is under a force, and the torsion has an elastic force returning to the original state after being stressed, so the elastic element 128 has a tendency of driving the stopper 127 to return to the first position. When the pushing force applied to the opening member 122 is removed, the opening member 122 returns under the action of the elastic member 121, the force applied to the rotating member 125 by the opening member 122 is then eliminated, the stopper 127 also returns under the action of the elastic element 128, and when the stopper 127 returns to the first position (i.e., when the blocking portion 120 is in the closed state), the next vial 2 can be continuously blocked from leaving the mouth 102.

In some examples, the portion of the slider 124 abutting the stop 127 may be rounded. This makes it easier for the slider 124 to push and rotate the stopper 127. In some examples, an end of the stop 127 distal from the fixed shaft 126 may be radiused. From this, can make things convenient for dog 127 can not block with the contact of medicine bottle 2 and the in-process that breaks away from when rotating, make dog 127's rotation more nimble unimpeded.

Fig. 9a is a schematic view showing another example of the connection relationship of the blocking portion 120 and the base 100 according to the example of the present invention; fig. 9b is a schematic view showing another display direction of the coupling relationship of the stopper 120 and the base 100 according to fig. 9a (in order to better show the coupling relationship of the stopper 120 and the base 100, fig. 9a and 9b separate the stopper 120 from the base 100 in a direction in which the opening member 122 is movable, and the stopper 120 is actually located on the base 100 shown in fig. 9a and 9 b). Fig. 10 is an exploded view showing another example of a barrier according to an example of the present invention.

In some examples, the connection relationship of the blocking portion 120 and the base 100 may also be as shown in fig. 9a and 9 b. In some examples, referring to fig. 9a, the straight slot 105 on the base 100 that mates with the straight post 123, the sliding slot 106 that mates with the slider 124, and the rotating slot 107 that mates with the stop 127 may form the structure shown in fig. 9 a. In some examples, referring to fig. 9a, the rotation groove 107 divides the pin shaft hole 108 into upper and lower parts, which play a more stable role in fixing the rotation member 125 when the first fixing shaft 126 is placed therein. In some examples, the rotational slot 107 may be a slot that does not extend completely through the base plate 100 (see fig. 9a and 9 b).

In some examples, referring to fig. 9a, 9b and 10, the slider 124 may be cylindrical and fixedly attached to the straight post 123, and the stop 127 may have a hollow slot 129 in which the slider 124 slides. Referring to fig. 9a, the slider 124 may be coupled to the stopper 124 by passing through the hollow slot 129, i.e., the stopper 127 may be pushed to rotate when the slider 12 is moved. Thereby, the linkage between the rotating member 125 and the opening member 122 can be more stabilized. In some examples, a face of the slider 124 opposite to the groove wall of the rotation groove 107 may be connected with an elastic member 128 (see fig. 9 b). In some examples, the elastic member 128 may be a pressure spring, and the elastic member 128 may be disposed between a side wall of the stopper 127 and a groove wall of the rotation groove 107. The elastic member 128 may have one end connected to a side wall of the stopper 127 and the other end connected or detachably abutted to a wall of the rotation groove 107. Thus, the stopper 127 can be more conveniently provided with a return elastic force by the elastic member 128.

In some examples, referring to fig. 9a, the rotation slot 107 divides the sliding slot 106 into upper and lower portions, and when the sliding block 124 is placed therein, the sliding of the sliding block 124 is more stable and always keeps sliding along the direction of the sliding slot 106.

Fig. 11 is a plan view showing another example of the barrier section 120 according to an example of the present invention.

In some examples, the stop 127 can have a first end face 130 and a second end face 131 as shown in fig. 11. The first end surface 130 is used to exert a blocking action on the vials 2 located in the vial magazine 101. In some examples, the portion of the first end surface 130 that contacts the vial may have a circular arc shape. Thus, the stopper 127 can be easily rotated without being caught in the process of coming into and out of contact with the vial 2. In some examples, the second end face 131 may form an angle with the first end face 130 (see fig. 11). This enables the vial 2 to be stably held.

In some examples, referring to fig. 11, the blocking portion 120 is in the closed state (i.e., the stop 127 is in the first position at the orifice 102). The groove body direction of the hollow groove 129 on the stopper 127 forms an oblique angle with the moving direction of the straight column 123. When the opening member 122 moves along the direction of the rectilinear groove 105 (i.e. when the rectilinear post 123 moves relative to the base 100 and moves from the initial position to the opening position), the slider 124 located in the hollow groove 129 exerts a pushing force on the stopper 127, and the stopper 127 rotates around the first fixed shaft 126 to a position away from the hatch 102. At this time, the bin opening 102 is not blocked by the stopper 127, and the vial 2 moves from one side of the rotating member 125 to the other side of the rotating member 125 under the pushing of the pushing portion 110, i.e., continues to move to the bin opening 102 along the direction of the vial bin 101 toward the bin opening 102, and is picked up by the picking mechanism 20 (at this time, the blocking portion 120 is in an open state). In this process, the stopper 127 rotates, so that the elastic element 128 is under a stressed and compressed state, and has an elastic force returning to the original shape after being compressed and stressed, and therefore the elastic element 128 has a tendency of driving the stopper 127 to return to the first position. When the pushing force applied to the opening member 122 is removed, the opening member 122 returns under the action of the elastic member 121, and at this time, the force applied to the rotating member 125 by the opening member 122 is also eliminated, the slider 124 is retracted along the hollow groove 129 (i.e., the straight column 123 is retracted to the initial position), and the stopper 127 is also returned under the action of the elastic element 128, i.e., returned to the first position, to continue to block the next vial 2 from exiting the port 102 (i.e., the blocking portion 120 is returned to the closed state). Thereby, the blocking and releasing of the medicine bottle 2 can be automatically and repositionably realized.

In some examples, referring to fig. 2 and 3, the pick mechanism 20 may include a grip 210. The grip 210 may be used to grip the medicine bottle 2. In some examples, the pick mechanism 20 may be a multi-axis robotic arm whereby the pick mechanism 20 may make any angular adjustment to pick up a vial 2 located in the magazine mechanism 10. In some examples, the gripper 210 may be a mechanical claw on a multi-axis robotic arm, whereby the gripper 210 can stably pick up the vial 2. In some examples, the pick mechanism 20 and the gripper 210 may be controlled automatically.

In some examples, picking mechanism 20 may further include a push block 220 (see fig. 3), and push block 220 may be used to push opening member 122 to move. When it is desired to pick up a vial 2 located at the mouth 102, the stopper 120 can be transitioned to a closed state releasing the vial 2 by the pusher 220 engaging the opening member 122, thereby moving the vial 2 from one side of the rotating member 125 to the other side of the rotating member 125.

In some examples, the push block 220 may be provided to the clamping portion 210. In some examples, the push block 220 may be a portion of the clip portion 210 that protrudes relatively. In some examples, the location of the push block 220 and the grip 210 remain relatively fixed. In some examples, the position relationship between the pushing block 220 and the clamping portion 210 is related to the position relationship between the bin opening 102 and the straight column 123, in other words, when the clamping portion 210 is located at the position of the bin opening 102 and clamps the vial 2 located in the vial bin 101, the pushing block 220 may be located at a position that can push the straight column 123 to a predetermined position. For example, in the example shown in fig. 3, the moving direction of the gripping section 210 when it is positioned to the magazine 102 to grip the medicine bottle 2 is the same as the moving direction of the push block 220 with respect to the straight column 123 (D indicating a straight line in fig. 3 may be the moving direction of the push block 220 with respect to the straight column 123). In this case, the stopper 120 can be triggered by the push block 220 while the grip 210 grips the vial 2. When the holding portion 210 holds the vial 2 at a position away from the storage opening 102, the pushing block 220 also simultaneously leaves the blocking portion 120, and the action exerted on the blocking portion 120 by the pushing block 220 is simultaneously cancelled, so that the blocking portion 120 returns to the closed state under the action of the elastic member 121 and the elastic element 128, and the next vial 2 is continuously blocked from moving to the storage opening 102. This enables one vial 2 to be picked up at a time.

In the present embodiment, the opening member 122 pushes the rotating member 125 to rotate, and is skillfully matched with the gripping and triggering mechanism of the picking mechanism 20, so that the pushing block 220 of the picking mechanism 20 can be used to trigger the opening and closing of the blocking portion 120 more easily, and the pushing of the rotating member 125 is more easily completed. Also in this manner, access to the vial 2 is achieved, which increases the useful life of the stopper 120 and avoids premature fatigue failure of the resilient element 128, due to the easier rotation of the rotating member 125. Meanwhile, the matching of the pushing block 220 and the straight column 123 of the picking mechanism 20 can finish picking only one bottle of medicine 2 at a time, and the stopping of the stopping part 120 on other medicine bottles 2 in the medicine bottle bin 101 is recovered after the picking is finished, so that one bottle 2 is guaranteed to be picked at a time, and the accuracy rate of picking the medicine bottles 2 by the picking mechanism 20 can be improved in a fixed-point picking mode.

Fig. 12 is a schematic sectional view showing the pushing portion 110 according to an example of the present invention.

In some examples, referring to fig. 12, the push part 110 may include a contact member 111 and an actuating member 112. The contact member 111 makes direct contact with the vial 2 located in the vial magazine 101, and the actuation member 112 has a tendency to drive the contact member 111 towards the magazine mouth 102. Thereby, the pushing portion 110 can continuously push the medicine bottle 2 in a direction toward the bin port 102.

In some examples, the pushing portion 110 may have a cavity within which the actuating member 112 may be located, the pushing portion 110 continuously applying a pushing force to the vial 2 when the actuating member 112 is activated. In some examples, the actuation member 112 may be a coil spring. A coil spring may be located in the chamber of the pushing part 110, and one end of the coil spring may extend through the hole of the chamber and be fixed at the position of the bin mouth 102. When the pushing portion 110 moves away from the storage opening 102 along the vial storage 101, the coil spring starts to be stressed, and at this time, the coil spring applies a force to the pushing portion 110 to move towards the storage opening 102, so that the pushing portion 110 tends to move towards the storage opening 102. Thereby, the pushing portion 110 can be continuously provided with the pushing force to push the medicine bottle 2 by using the characteristics of the coil spring.

In some examples, the actuating member 112 may be a pressure spring. The pressure spring may be disposed on a moving path of the push part 110. One end of the pressure spring may be fixed to the mouth 102 of the vial magazine 101 and the other end may be fixed to the contact member 111. In this case, the pushing portion 110 may be continuously provided with a pushing force to push the medicine bottle 2 by using an elastic force of the pressure spring (i.e., a restoring force of the pressure spring).

In some examples, the actuating member 112 may also be a tension spring. A tension spring may be provided between the contact mechanism and the mouth 102 of the vial magazine 101. One end of the tension spring may be connected to the bin mouth 102 of the vial bin 101 and the other end may be connected to the contact member 111. Thereby, the pushing portion 110 can be continuously provided with the pushing force to push the medicine bottle 2 by the tension spring.

In summary, the magazine mechanism 10 for loading the medicine bottles 2 according to the present invention can store the medicine bottles 2 and can push the medicine bottles to the opening 102 of the medicine bottle compartment 101 more conveniently when the medicine bottles 2 need to be used, so that the medicine bottles 2 can be taken away more conveniently.

While the present invention has been described in detail in connection with the drawings and examples, it is to be understood that the above description is not intended to limit the invention in any way. Those skilled in the art can modify and change the present invention as needed without departing from the true spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and changes are intended to fall within the scope of the present invention.
