Background
The static accurate weighing technology of medicines refers to a technology for accurately, stably and reliably measuring and controlling the weight of medicines in the production process of medicines. The technology has important significance for guaranteeing the quality, safety and effectiveness of medicines. Currently, the static accurate weighing technology of medicines is mainly applied to the production of solid preparations (such as tablets, capsules, granules and the like) and injections (such as liquid, powder, freeze-drying and the like).
The static accurate weighing technology of medicines mainly relies on two core components of a weighing sensor and a weighing controller. The load cell is a device that converts a weight signal of a medicine into an electrical signal. The weighing controller is a device for processing, displaying and outputting the electric signals. According to the different working principles of the weighing sensor, the weighing sensor can be divided into various types such as resistance strain type, capacitance type, electromagnetic force type, piezoelectric type and the like. According to different functions of the weighing controller, the weighing controller can be divided into a plurality of types such as single-way, multi-way, intelligent and the like.
At present, a static accurate weighing technology of medicines has been developed and applied to a certain degree at home and abroad. For example, in solid preparation production, a common particle counter can meet the precision requirement through particle counting detection; in the production of injections, the filling amount of a common filling machine can be adjusted through weighing feedback. However, existing weighing techniques still have some problems and drawbacks. For example: factors such as quality non-uniformity, defective products, dust and the like of the medicines can influence the accuracy of weighing results. Factors such as temperature, humidity, air pressure, electromagnetic interference and the like of the weighing environment can influence the stability of a weighing result. Vibration, noise, abrasion, aging and other factors of the weighing device can influence the reliability of the weighing result. Factors such as the motion state, speed and direction of the medicine in the weighing process can influence the real-time performance of the weighing result. In short, it is difficult to reach a stationary state due to the influence of the equipment. How to realize static weighing in the feeding process and solve the problems existing in dynamic weighing is an unsolved problem in the industry.

Detailed Description
In the prior art, the grain counting machine mainly achieves the precision requirement through grain counting detection, but the reality is that: defective products can also appear in the medicine particles, and the medicine particles also have dust and other factors, so that on one hand, the difference is relatively large by visual detection, and for some small dust, the medicine particles are difficult to confirm. To above-mentioned problem, this application adopts static weighing technique to improve the weighing precision and the efficiency of medicine. The static weighing technique is a technique in which a medicine is temporarily stopped or decelerated in some way during the movement of the medicine to a stationary or near stationary state, and then weighing measurement is performed. The technology can effectively avoid dynamic errors of medicines and improve weighing accuracy and stability. In order to balance weighing precision and particle filling efficiency, the weighing device needs to reach a static state as soon as possible, then start as soon as possible and enter the next link.
As shown in fig. 1 to 5, a static accurate weighing system is provided for a medicine granule counting filling system, and mainly comprises a base arranged at a preset position on a granule counting filling line and a weighing unit fixed on the base; wherein, the weighing unit includes:
the feeding star plate is provided with at least three feeding grooves which are used for acquiring bottle bodies from a production line and sequentially conveying the bottle bodies to a designated position, and reversing the bottle bodies backwards for a preset distance after each feeding;
the guide frame comprises an outer guide frame and an inner guide frame with notches, and the outer guide frame and the inner guide frame are coaxially arranged with the feeding star plate and are used for limiting the moving position of the bottle body, so that the bottle body accurately reaches a weighing balance working area and a plurality of grain filling working areas;
the weighing scales are respectively positioned at two sides of the grain filling working area, and are provided with an outer guide arc and an inner guide arc which are respectively in clearance fit with the outer guide frame and the inner guide frame to form a guide channel which is integrally circular;
the acquisition unit at least covers the area where the weighing unit is located and provides information of the position and the state of the bottle body for the weighing control system.
In this embodiment, the friction between the bottle and the guide frame becomes an internal force in a clearance fit manner, so that the influence on the measurement accuracy is avoided, and only the weight of the part is subtracted in a peeling manner, so that the influence on the measurement accuracy caused by the kinetic energy of the bottle and partial vibration is improved in a mechanical design manner. The clearance fit achieves a release from the rest with as little interference as possible. But without this guide or arcuate guide, the travel of the bottle is uncontrolled.
In addition, in the embodiment, the feeding star plate can convey the bottles to the designated positions from the assembly line according to a certain sequence and speed, so that the interval and synchronism among the bottles are ensured, and the collision and blockage among the bottles are reduced. The guide frame can limit the bottle body on a fixed track, so that the bottle body can not deviate or incline in the moving process, and the stability and the alignment of the bottle body are improved. The weighing balance can weigh the bottle body before and after the bottle body reaches the filling work areas to acquire the data of the quality of the bottle body and the quality of the bottle body, so that the quality change in the filling process is monitored. The acquisition unit can acquire the position and state information of the bottle body in the weighing unit area in real time through an optical information or image data acquisition mode, and data support and feedback are provided for a weighing control system. It should be noted that the feeding star plate can reverse a preset distance during feeding, so that the bottle body is separated from the star plate, and the influence on weighing is reduced. This can be achieved by adjusting the operating parameters of the servo motor.
According to one aspect of the application, the outer guide arc and the outer guide frame are provided with a second gap, and a first gap is arranged between the inner guide arc and the inner guide frame, and the first gap and the second gap are both larger than a threshold value; a light source or a receiving part is arranged at the inner side of the inner guide arc along the diameter direction of the inner guide arc, so that light can sequentially pass through the inner first gap and the second gap to reach the field of view of the acquisition unit; or the light rays emitted from the acquisition unit pass through the second gap and the first gap in sequence and then enter the receiving part.
In the present embodiment, the optical image acquisition and processing is performed using the gap. Since the illumination condition in the factory may be complicated, the image quality may be unstable by using only the industrial camera, and more time is spent in identifying the bottle, so that the light source (such as linear structured light, a plurality of point light sources or gratings) is transmitted through the gap by using the gap, and then a very obvious brightness area is formed in the camera, so that the state of the bottle is more easily identified. Of course, the transmission and reception modes can be adopted according to the optical symmetrical design. The first gap and the second gap are located in a certain radial direction to form a radial light path channel. In addition, the drawings are merely examples and not all details are shown.
According to one aspect of the application, the working surfaces of the inner and outer guide arcs are each provided with a buffer layer extending a distance in the height direction of not less than half the height of the bottle body.
The moving bottle body is stopped as soon as possible through the buffer layer, so that a short static time is obtained, and accurate weighing is realized. In this embodiment, the bottle body can be stopped quickly by arranging the buffer layer as long as possible in the height direction and optimizing the friction coefficient of the buffer layer. In further embodiments, other types of cushioning materials or structures, such as springs, rubber, air springs, etc., may be used to improve cushioning and durability.
According to one aspect of the application, the weighing control system comprises:
the data preprocessing module is used for receiving the optical information or the image data of at least N frames of the weighing unit area acquired by the acquisition unit, preprocessing the optical information or the image data into a uniform format and forming standard data; n is a natural number greater than 3;
the static window searching module is used for sequentially reading each frame of standard data along the time sequence, judging whether the optical information of the corresponding areas of the first gap and the second gap reaches a threshold value, and if the optical information of the corresponding areas of the first gap or the second gap does not reach the threshold value, continuing to read the next frame of standard data until M frames of continuous standard data in time are obtained; m is a natural number greater than 2; in the continuous M-frame standard data, acquiring time information of first-frame standard data and last-frame standard data and taking an intermediate time value;
and the weight data calculation output module searches weight detection data of the K groups of weighing balances closest to the middle moment value, takes an average value, and outputs the average value after correction.
In this embodiment, it is first ensured that the stability of the vial after loading can be accurately determined by a precise image processing technique, which is a key part of the overall process. Only after the medicine bottle is completely stable, the weighing accuracy can be ensured. The adoption of the light source and the collection unit ensures that the light can accurately irradiate the medicine bottle and be completely captured by the collection unit. This provides high quality raw data for subsequent image processing. In addition, through the comparison of medicine bottle positions between the continuous frames, the stability of medicine bottles can be effectively analyzed, so that not only can the weighing accuracy be ensured, but also potential impulse caused by unstable medicine bottles can be avoided, and further the weighing accuracy is influenced. In a word, the embodiment can ensure that the star-plate-type feeding medicine bottles can be accurately, quickly and stably fed, and ensure that the medicine bottles are accurately weighed after feeding is completed.
According to one aspect of the application, the weight data calculation output module further comprises a preconfigured correction database, the correction database is provided with correction data under at least one working condition, and working parameters under each working condition comprise a basic parameter, a feeding parameter, a granule counting parameter, a blanking parameter and a rejecting parameter; the weight data calculation output module is used for retrieving the current working parameters, searching working conditions corresponding to the working parameters, obtaining the current working conditions, subtracting correction data under the correction current working conditions from the average value of the weight detection data, and outputting the correction data.
In this embodiment, the rejection parameters include the number of bottles to be rejected when the machine is started, the number of times of continuous rejection and shutdown, the rejection action time, the rejection delay time, the turntable speed, etc. The blanking parameters comprise bottling time, bottle discharging time, material nozzle vibration frequency, buffering time and the like. The parameters include electric eye parameters, door closing time and the like. The feeding parameters comprise vibration delay starting time, bin gate height, vibration speed and frequency of each stage and the like.
In other words, in the present embodiment, in order to reduce the weighing error caused by the background vibration or the like, a correction data database is constructed for each operation state, and then error correction is performed according to the content of the database. During static weighing, factors such as environmental vibration, pipeline vibration and the like can also cause certain influence, so that weight data under the complete ideal condition can be obtained through the correction process, and the accuracy is greatly improved.
According to one aspect of the application, in the weighing process after filling, the weight data calculation output module obtains artificial intelligent residue identification information of the preconfigured intelligent control unit, and the final output result and the confidence coefficient are given according to the Copula combined distribution function module of the preconfigured weighing error and the image identification error. In this step, a joint distribution function construction is performed with respect to the correlation between the weighing error and the image recognition error. Such as in the course of an image recognition process,
the Copula joint distribution function module is constructed specifically as follows:
STEP1. Data are collected from the weighing data and the image data acquisition device, respectively. It is assumed that each drug particle has a unique number that can be used to match the results of weighing and image acquisition. It is assumed that the weighing device gives the mass m of the drug particles and the image acquisition device gives the residue information r of the drug particles, such as the number of residues, size, shape, etc.
STEP2. Pretreatment of the data. This step is to eliminate some outliers or noise and normalize or normalize the data. The specific method may be selected according to the actual situation, for example:
STEP21, detecting and eliminating abnormal values of the weight data. Statistical methods such as box graphs, Z-scores, mahalanobis distances, etc. can be used to identify and delete data points that are far from normal.
STEP22 noise filtering and segmentation is performed on the image acquisition data. Some image processing methods, such as median filtering, edge detection, threshold segmentation, etc., may be used to remove noise from the image and to distinguish between drug particles and debris.
STEP23 data were normalized or normalized. Since the weighing data and the image acquisition data may have different dimensions and distribution characteristics, the data may be standardized or normalized to have the same or similar dimensions and morphology for facilitating subsequent analysis. For example, methods such as maximum-minimum normalization, Z-score normalization, etc. may be used.
STEP3. Copula function fitting was performed on the data. This step is to find a suitable copula function to describe the correlation between the weighing data and the image acquisition data. The specific method may be selected according to the actual situation, for example:
STEP31. Select a copula family of functions. Based on the copula family table, a copula family suitable for the current problem characteristics, such as archimedes family or ellipsoids family, is selected.
STEP32. Estimate copula function parameters. For a particular functional form in each copula family of functions, a maximum likelihood estimation method or other method may be used to estimate its parameter values, such as correlation coefficients, tail correlation coefficients, etc.
STEP33. The copula function fitting effect was evaluated. For each copula function form and parameter value, some evaluation index may be used to measure its fitting effect, such as the red pool information amount criterion (AIC), bayesian information amount criterion (BIC), mean square error (MSTEPE), etc.
STEP34. Select the optimal copula function form and parameter values. According to the result of the evaluation index, an optimal or closest optimal copula function form and parameter value can be selected as a description of the correlation between the weighing data and the image acquisition data.
STEP4, comprehensive judgment is performed by using a copula function. The step is to comprehensively judge the quality and the residue information of the medicine particles by utilizing the result of the copula function and give weighing data and confidence level so as to facilitate the subsequent quality control or optimization. The specific method may be selected according to the actual situation, for example:
step41. Calculate the Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) and Probability Density Function (PDF) of the copula function. Based on the previously selected copula function form and parameter values, the values or expressions of the CDF and PDF thereof can be calculated to facilitate subsequent calculations or analysis.
STEP42. Calculate the integrated error probability of the drug particles. From the CDF or PDF of the copula function, the probability that the weighing error and the image error of each drug particle fall within a certain interval at the same time, for example, P (m <0.1, r < 0.2), representing the probability that the mass error is less than 0.1 g and the residue information error is less than 0.2, can be calculated. This probability may reflect the overall error level of the drug particles, with larger representations being more accurate and smaller representations being less accurate.
According to the relation between the time when the image identifies the residue, the bottling time and the weighing time, the weighing data confidence degree can be judged, for example, weighing is carried out at a plurality of moments after the residue is identified, and the weight exceeds a threshold value, so that the probability of occurrence of problems in the quality of the bottle of medicine is comprehensively seen to be greatly improved. Thus sending a signal to the bottle kicking mechanism to reject the bottle of medicine. For smaller flakes, their weight and impulse may have an impact on the measurement. Therefore, the confidence is given through joint reasoning, and the judgment accuracy can be greatly improved.
According to one aspect of the application, the static window searching module further comprises obtaining edge lines of the bottle mouth or the bottle cap from the image acquisition information of the intelligent control unit when searching the continuous M frames of standard data, and judging whether the circle center of the bottle cap or the bottle mouth is located in a designated area or not according to each frame of standard image; if not, deleting the frame and the standard image at the moment before the frame.
In this step, it is mainly determined whether the bottle is in a relatively stationary state or at a moment during shaking. In other words, in theory, it can be classified into steady-state rest and unsteady-state rest. Unsteady state is static, a certain kinetic energy or momentum can exist, and the result of the symmetry is influenced. Thus, by way of example, the determination of the edge line may assist in determining whether it is stationary. When the unstable state is static, the circle center can shake to a certain extent, so that the unstable state can be identified.
According to another aspect of the present application, a static accurate weighing method is provided, which is implemented based on the static accurate weighing system according to any one of the above technical solutions, and the method includes the following steps:
s1, receiving optical information or image data of at least N frames of weighing unit areas acquired by an acquisition unit, and preprocessing the optical information or the image data into a uniform format to form standard data; n is a natural number greater than 3;
this step is to acquire optical information or image data of the vial in the weighing cell area, such as using a camera or a photosensor, and acquire information about the position, shape, size, etc. of the vial on the weighing scale. This information can be used to determine if the vial is completely dropped on the weighing scale and if other objects interfere with the weighing process. The preprocessing is to convert data of different devices or different formats into a unified format, such as pixel values, gray values, binarization and the like, so as to facilitate subsequent processing.
Step S2, sequentially reading each frame of standard data along the time sequence, judging whether the optical information of the corresponding areas of the first gap and the second gap reaches a threshold value, and if the optical information of the corresponding areas of the first gap or the second gap does not reach the threshold value, continuing to read the next frame of standard data until the M frames of continuous standard data in time are obtained; m is a natural number greater than 2; and in the continuous M-frame standard data, acquiring the time information of the first-frame standard data and the last-frame standard data and taking an intermediate time value.
Whether the vial is fully landed on the weighing scale can be determined based on whether the optical information of the two regions reaches a threshold (e.g., brightness, color, etc.). If both areas reach the threshold value, the medicine bottle is in a stable state, and weighing can be performed; if one area does not reach the threshold value, the medicine bottle is in a moving state or swaying state, and weighing cannot be performed. In order to guarantee the reliability of the weighing result, it is necessary that at least M consecutive frames (M is greater than 2) satisfy the condition that both areas reach the threshold value. In these successive frames, the time information of the first frame and the last frame is acquired, and their average value is taken as an intermediate time value.
And S3, searching weight detection data of the K groups of weighing balances closest to the middle moment value, taking an average value, correcting the average value and outputting the average value. The weighing balance will constantly detect and record the weight of the vial thereon and correspond to the time of day information. From the intermediate time value, the weight detection data of K groups (K is a natural number) nearest to it can be found, and their average value is taken as the weight of the vial. This can avoid the influence of errors or noise of individual data. The correction is to eliminate errors or deviations of the weighing balance itself, such as zero drift, temperature variations, etc. And then outputting, namely displaying or storing the corrected weight value.
According to one aspect of the present application, during the weighing process after filling, further comprising:
and obtaining artificial intelligent residue identification information of a preconfigured intelligent control unit, and giving out a final output result and confidence level according to a Copula joint distribution function module of a preconfigured weighing error and an image identification error.
