APPARATUSES, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS FOR ANTICIPATING AND DELIVERING MEDICATIONS FROM A CENTRAL PHARMACY TO A PATIENT USING A TRACK BASED TRANSPORT SYSTEM

摘要

Provided herein are various apparatuses, systems, and methods for transporting medication within a healthcare facility. Examples of the invention may include a car for a track-based transport system. The car may include a payload platform configured to support a payload on a payload surface; a first tilt bracket rotatably coupled to the payload platform and rotatable relative to the payload platform about a first axis orthogonal to a plane defined by the payload surface; a first bogie pivotably coupled to the tilt bracket, where the bogie is configured to pivot about a first pivot axis that is perpendicular to the first axis and perpendicular to a direction of travel of the car; and a first electric motor coupled to the first bogie and configured to receive electric power through a bus bar disposed along a track on which the car rides.
