Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of latex product storage devices, and in particular to a storage device for medical latex production. Background Technology
[0002] In the assembly line production of medical latex products, the wet gel products after impregnation molding need to undergo processes such as vulcanization, drying, and edge rolling. During this process, the products need to be stored and transferred centrally; however, currently, simple pallets, mesh baskets, or ordinary shelves are mostly used for storage.
[0003] For medical latex gloves, the surface energy is high and the viscosity is large when they are wet and gelled. When multiple layers are stacked or in close contact, the microstructure of the contact surface will permeate each other. After drying, a strong adhesion will be formed. Forced separation will tear the surface of the product and cause irreversible micro-damage. This not only becomes a breeding ground for bacteria, but also seriously affects the product yield.
[0004] Although the industry has tried to alleviate this problem by adding partitions and using smooth-surfaced containers, these are all temporary solutions. Adding partitions cannot prevent gloves from sticking to the partitions themselves, and there is still a risk of gloves in the same compartment coming into contact with each other. Smooth containers can only slightly reduce the degree of sticking, and cannot fundamentally eliminate the sticking effect caused by continuous contact pressure and highly viscous surfaces. Summary of the Invention

[0019] The second mounting plate is detachably installed in the cover, and the diameter of the second mounting plate is smaller than the diameter of the through hole.
[0020] In an embodiment of the present application, a fixing groove is arranged in the middle of the cover, a clamping block is fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the fixing groove, a clamping groove is arranged on the circumferential side wall of the second mounting plate, and the clamping block and the clamping groove cooperate to circumferentially fix the second mounting plate in the fixing groove.
[0021] In one embodiment of the present invention, the transfer assembly includes a transfer carrier plate that meshes with a lead screw and slides vertically with a guide rod, a transfer plate that is slidably connected to the transfer carrier plate, a transfer drive component that is fixedly mounted on the transfer carrier plate and drives the transfer plate to slide horizontally back and forth, a cylinder fixed on the transfer plate, and a suction cup fixed on the piston rod of the cylinder.

[0026] 1. Processed latex gloves are stored on storage stations. At least one storage station on each storage station is not used for latex gloves. Several storage stations can be stacked inside a cabinet by removing the cover. The central controller controls the transfer mechanism to intermittently transfer the latex gloves one by one to the empty storage station, thereby eliminating the adhesion effect caused by continuous contact pressure and high viscous surface of the latex gloves. When the latex gloves need to proceed to the next process, the central controller controls the transfer mechanism to transfer the latex gloves on the storage station to the unloading channel. The lower exit of the unloading channel is connected to an unloading drawer, where the latex gloves are collected and unloaded for convenient centralized processing by workers.

The latex gloves are placed in the storage station with the cuff side of the latex gloves close to the air vent. The piston rod of the cylinder contracts, which drives the suction cup to press down and adsorb the latex gloves. Due to gravity, the cuff of the latex gloves naturally opens, and the air vent blows air towards the inside of the latex gloves, thereby preventing the inside of the latex gloves from sticking together.
[0028] 3. The first unloading drive unit drives the unloading plate to receive the latex gloves released by the suction cup, so that the unloading plate receives the required number of latex gloves. Then, the rotary drive assembly drives it to rotate to the opening opposite the unloading channel. The second unloading drive unit pushes the latex gloves on the unloading plate into the unloading channel for unloading on the drive push plate. Attached Figure Description

[0052] Use process:
[0053] 1. Initial feeding:
[0054] The workers manually place the produced wet gel latex gloves on the storage positions 31 of the multiple storage tables 3, and it is worth noting that when placing, at least one position on each storage table 3 is ensured to be empty, and the gloves are placed with the cuff side facing the outer edge of the storage table 3. Then the operator opens the cover 2 and places the multiple storage tables 3 layer by layer in the cabinet 1. After aligning the second mounting plate 531 with the fixing groove 21, the cover 2 is placed on the cabinet 1, and at this time the second mounting plate 531 is fixed in the circumferential direction by the cooperation of the clamping block 22 and the clamping groove 5311.
[0055] 2. Anti-adhesion dynamic transfer:
[0056] The central controller starts the transfer mechanism 5 according to the preset program (e.g. every 30 minutes), the lifting motor 536 drives the lead screw 533 to rotate, and the transfer plate 511 and the feeding rack 521 are lifted to the target floor. The rotating motor 544 drives the entire mechanism to rotate, so that the suction cup 515 is aligned with the target glove. The transfer driving part 513 pushes the transfer plate 512 to extend, and the piston rod of the air cylinder 514 descends. The suction cup 515 grabs the glove under the action of vacuum adsorption. Then, the transfer mechanism 5 transfers the glove to the empty storage position 31 on the current floor and releases it. Through this intermittent and dynamic transfer of changing the contact position of the glove, the tendency of the wet gel latex molecular chain to form adhesion at the static contact point is effectively broken.
[0057] 3. Internal air blowing anti-adhesion:
[0058] During the transfer process, when the suction cup 515 adsorbs the glove, the cuff of the latex glove naturally opens due to gravity. At this time, the air blowing mechanism arranged in the cabinet 1 is started, and filtered and mild dry air is blown into the glove through the air blowing port 6 on the inner wall of the cabinet 1, so as to keep the inner wall of the glove separated and effectively prevent internal adhesion.
[0059] 4. Centralized feeding:
[0060] When it is necessary to transfer the gloves to the next process collectively, the central controller controls the transfer mechanism 5 to perform the feeding operation. The suction cup 515 sequentially sucks and releases the gloves on each storage position 31 to the extended feeding plate 522. After the feeding plate 522 collects a predetermined number (e.g. 10 pairs) of gloves, the rotating driving assembly 54 rotates the feeding assembly 52 to align it with the feeding channel 4 formed by the notch 9. Then, the second feeding driving part 525 pushes the push plate 524 to push all the gloves on the feeding plate 522 into the feeding channel 4 at one time. The gloves finally fall into the feeding drawer 10, and the centralized and efficient feeding is completed. The workers can pull out the drawer to take out the latex gloves in the drawer for processing in the next process.
[0061] In summary, the application changes the contact point by dynamic transfer, and realizes the full range and multi-level anti-adhesion protection of the medical latex gloves by combining with internal blowing, significantly improves the production yield, and realizes the automatic centralized feeding and improves the production efficiency.
