  • Patent number: 9333653
    Abstract: A pill grasping method comprises rotating a grasping arm with a nozzle to a predetermined initial position driven by a driving mechanism, rotating a number of pill storage cases to position one of the pill storage cases with a set number of pills to a predetermined grasping pill position driven by an actuating mechanism, rotating the grasping arm to enter into the corresponding pill storage case, starting a pump to generate a vacuum in the nozzle for sucking a pill, and determining if an actual pressure value in a pipe connecting the nozzle to the pump is less than a predetermined pressure value. The grasping arm is rotated to the predetermined initial position when the actual pressure value is less than the predetermined pressure value.

  • Publication number: 20150343811
    Abstract: A tension adjusting mechanism for a toothed belt for driving a printer head of an inkjet printer is disclosed. The tension adjusting mechanism includes a housing secured to a frame of the printer. An electromagnet is secured to the housing, and a magnet movably is received in the housing and is repulsed by the electromagnet. A linkage is drivably connected with the magnet and a pulley is drivably connected with the linkage. The toothed belt engages with a circumferential periphery of the pulley. The adjustment of the tension force of the toothed belt is achieved by changing a current applied to the electromagnet to change the repulsive force of the electromagnet acting on the magnet.
