Detailed Description

The following detailed description of the embodiments of the disclosure refers to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating the present disclosure, are given by way of illustration and explanation only, not limitation.

In the present disclosure, unless otherwise specified, the use of directional terms such as "upper and lower" means up and down in the direction of the drawing, and the X direction, Y direction and Z direction can be seen in fig. 1 and 3. "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of the respective parts themselves. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and the like, as used herein, are intended to distinguish one element from another, and are not necessarily order or importance.

Furthermore, the directional terms used above are used merely to simplify the description of the present disclosure and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element so referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and are not to be construed as limiting the present disclosure.

It has been found that the reason why the lateral tipping of the article is likely to occur during the taking of the article in the automatic dispensing machine (taking a dispensing machine as an example) of the related art is that the medicine is generally packed in the packing box in the dispensing machine, and the volume of the packing box is generally set to be larger than the volume of the medicine in order to completely pack the medicine in the packing box, which may cause the center of gravity of the packing box with the medicine therein to be deviated from the geometric center of the packing box. Also, the size of the tab, the position at which the tab supports the article (i.e., the medicine-containing package) in the width direction of the lane, and the width of the lane are already set at the time of shipment, and the width of the tab is generally smaller compared to the width of the lane. So, because the piece picking position is fixed, when picking the goods, the piece picking position with the goods contact probably has certain skew with the focus of goods, like this, when picking the piece and picking the goods, the problem of turning on one's side just can appear in the goods for the goods can not be picked out the goods way smoothly, leads to the failure of medicine-dispensing machine operation of getting it filled, has reduced the success rate and the efficiency of getting goods.

In view of this, as shown in fig. 1 to 5, the present disclosure provides a pick sheet 1, a goods taking structure 200 including the pick sheet 1, and an automatic goods delivery machine 300 including the goods taking structure 200, wherein the automatic goods delivery machine 300 includes, but is not limited to, a medicine dispensing machine. For example, the dispenser 300 may be a beverage dispenser, a food dispenser, an integrated dispenser, a cosmetic dispenser, or the like.

For convenience of presentation, the following description will be mainly given by taking a dispenser as an example, but the disclosure is not intended to limit the automatic dispenser 300 to a dispenser, and any suitable apparatus or structure for employing the picking sheet 1 and the picking structure 200 provided by the disclosure is within the scope of the disclosure.

Referring to fig. 1 and 3, the automated shipment machine 300 may include a housing 301, a rack disposed within the housing 301, the rack having at least one lane 302 disposed thereon for placement of the items 100, and a retrieval structure 200 disposed within the housing 301 for retrieving the items 100 from the lane 302 and transferring the items 100 to a retrieval location, such as a retrieval window on the housing 301.

Taking the medicine dispensing machine as an example, goods way 302 can all be towards getting goods structure 200 slope setting, and the height of goods way 302 exit end is less than goods way 302 other places, and the front end of goods way 302 is provided with the baffle 303 that is used for keeping out the medicine landing, and goods way 302 has seted up opening 304 in the one side that is close to getting goods structure 200, and opening 304's partly is located goods way 302's baffle 303, and another part is located goods way 302's bottom. Pick 1 on the access structure 200 may extend into the channel 302 from the opening 304 and rise in the Z-direction until contacting the bottom surface of the medication in the channel 302. With the rising of the picking sheet 1, when the height of the medicine is higher than a certain position, the medicine will slide down to the temporary storage cavity 201 of the goods taking structure 200, thereby completing the medicine taking.

As shown in fig. 2 to 5, according to one aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a pick 1 for a pick structure 200, the pick 1 comprising a main body portion 11, a first portion 12 and a second portion 13, each for contacting an article 100 in a lane 302; the first portion 12 and the second portion 13 are respectively disposed at opposite ends of the main body 11, the main body 11 is adapted to be hinged to a driving mechanism, such as a first driving mechanism 21 below, and the pick sheet 1 is configured to be rotatable relative to the driving mechanism within the cargo bed 302 to change a width dimension of the pick sheet 1 contacting the cargo item 100.

In the present disclosure, referring to fig. 2 to 5, the picking sheet 1 of the present disclosure generally operates as follows: firstly, the picking sheet 1 can be positioned at a pre-picking position, at this time, part of the picking sheet 1 extends into the lower part of the opening 304 at the bottom of the goods channel 302, and the picking sheet 1 is approximately parallel to the bottom of the goods channel 302 at this time; the picker pad 1 may then be slowly raised upward in the Z-direction until the item 100 (e.g., a pharmaceutical product) slides out of the lane 302. According to the gravity center of the goods 100 to be taken, the picking sheet 1 can be switched from the first position to the second position in the lifting process of the picking sheet 1 or after the picking sheet 1 extends into the goods passage 302, and then the picking sheet 1 is slowly lifted along the Z direction (namely, the picking sheet 1 can start to rotate at the first time when extending into the goods passage 302 and is switched from the first position to the second position; the picking sheet 1 can also rotate while lifting in the lifting process, and when the picking sheet 1 is lifted to the sliding-out position of the goods 100, the picking sheet 1 reaches the second position).

Through the technical scheme, the picking sheet 1 disclosed by the invention can rotate in the goods passage 302, and the width dimension of the picking sheet 1 contacting with the goods 100 (such as medicines) can be changed by rotating the picking sheet 1, namely, the supporting area of the picking sheet 1 on the goods 100 in the width direction of the goods passage 302 is changed, for example, the supporting area of the picking sheet 1 on the goods 100 is increased. Therefore, the picking sheet 1 can be adapted to the goods 100 with different gravity centers, when the goods 100 are picked, the picking sheet 1 can stably support the goods 100, the stability of the goods 100 is improved, the goods 100 are not prone to side turnover, and the success rate and the efficiency of the goods taking structure 200 can be improved.

In addition, through the reasonable adjustment of the rotation angle of the picking piece 1, the gravity center positions of the goods 100 with different widths can be located in the contact part of the picking piece 1 and the goods 100 as much as possible, so that the picking piece 1 provided by the disclosure can be suitable for the goods 100 (such as medicines) with different gravity centers, and the universality of the picking piece 1 is improved.

It is understood that the present disclosure may also be provided with sensors to detect whether the item 100 is picked by the above process, and if the item 100 is not picked, a second pick is performed.

The rotation angle of the picking piece 1 is not particularly limited in the present disclosure, and can be selected according to actual needs. For example, as shown in fig. 2 and 5, the picker sheet 1 of the present disclosure may be provided to have at least a first position and a second position; in the first position, the line connecting the first part 12 and the second part 13 coincides with the Y direction; in the second position, the line connecting the first part 12 and the second part 13 coincides with the X-direction. That is, the tab 1 in the first position is parallel to the length direction (i.e., the Y direction) of the cargo way 302, so that the tab 1 can easily extend into the cargo way 302 and can be applied to the cargo 100 with the center of gravity located close to the opening 304 of the cargo way 302; the picking sheet 1 at the second position is parallel to the width direction (i.e., X direction) of the cargo way 302, so that the picking sheet 1 can have a larger supporting area for the goods 100 in the X direction, and can stably support the goods 100 with different gravity centers.

The present disclosure is not limited with respect to the specific shape of the first portion 12. For example, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 2 to 5, the first portion 12 may be configured in a long bar shape, the upper surface of the first portion 12 is provided with a first inclined surface 121, the first inclined surface 121 extends to a first side of the first portion 12 in the width direction, and a connection position of the first inclined surface 121 to the first side is a lowest position of the first inclined surface 121. As such, the first inclined surface 121 may reduce friction between the first portion 12 and the article 100 when rotating, so that the first portion 12 can rotate about the main body portion 11 more easily, so that the tab 1 can be switched to the second position more easily.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the first portion 12 may also be configured in a column structure, for example, the first portion 12 is configured in a cylinder, one end of which is connected with the main body portion 11, and the circumference of which is used for contacting the goods 100, so that the friction between the first portion 12 and the goods 100 can be reduced to some extent, so that the picking sheet 1 can be more easily rotated to switch its position.

Optionally, the first portion 12 of the present disclosure may further be provided with a first contact surface 122 for contacting the article 100, the first contact surface 122 extends from one end of the first portion 12 in the length direction to the other end of the first portion 12 in the length direction, and one side of the first contact surface 122 in the width direction of the first portion 12 is connected to the first inclined surface 121. Thus, the first contact surface 122 may remain in contact with the article 100 during rotation of the first portion 12 and when the tab 1 is in the second position, providing a stable support for the article 100.

The present disclosure is not limited to a specific shape of the face of the first portion 12 for contacting the article 100, and alternatively, the face of the first portion 12 for contacting the article 100 may be an arc-shaped face, so that friction between the first portion 12 and the article 100 can be further reduced, so that the first portion 12 can be more easily rotated about the body portion 11.

In embodiments where the first portion 12 includes the first contact surface 122, the first contact surface 122 may be formed as an arcuate surface, the arcuate surface form of the first contact surface 122 further reducing friction between the first portion 12 and the article 100 such that the first portion 12 can more easily rotate about the body portion 11. It is understood that the first contact surface 122 of the present disclosure may also be formed as a planar surface, and the planar form of the first contact surface 122 may provide a more stable support for the article 100. That is, in other embodiments of the present disclosure, the face of the first portion 12 for contact with the article 100 may also be planar.

In this way, the second inclined surface 131 can reduce friction between the second portion 13 and the article 100 when rotating, so that the second portion 13 can be more easily rotated around the main body portion 11, and the pick 1 can be more easily switched to the second position.

In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the second portion 13 may also be configured in a cylindrical structure, for example, the second portion 13 is configured in a cylinder, one end of the cylinder is connected with the main body portion 11, the circumference of the cylinder is used for contacting the goods 100, and the second portion 13 in the form of the cylinder can also play a role of reducing friction between the picking sheet 1 and the goods 100.

Optionally, the second part 13 of the present disclosure may further be provided with a second contact surface 132 for contacting with the medicine, the second contact surface 132 extends from one end of the first part 12 in the length direction to the other end of the second part 13 in the length direction, and one side of the second contact surface 132 in the width direction of the second part 13 is connected to the second inclined surface 131. Thus, the second contact surface 132 may remain in contact with the article 100 during rotation of the second portion 13 and when the tab 1 is in the second position, providing a stable support for the article 100.

The specific shape of the surface of the second portion 13 for contacting the article 100 of the present disclosure is not limited, and optionally, the surface of the second portion 13 for contacting the article 100 may be an arc-shaped surface, so that friction between the second portion 13 and the article 100 can be further reduced, so that the second portion 13 can be more easily rotated about the main body portion 11. In embodiments where the first portion 12 includes the second contact surface 132, the second contact surface 132 may be formed as an arcuate surface, the arcuate surface form of the second contact surface 132 being able to further reduce friction between the second portion 13 and the article 100 such that the second portion 13 can more easily rotate about the body portion 11. It is to be appreciated that the second contact surface 132 of the present disclosure may also be formed as a planar surface, and the planar form of the second contact surface 132 may provide a more stable support for the article 100. That is, in other embodiments of the present disclosure, the face of the second portion 13 for contact with the article 100 may also be planar.
