Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of material boxes, and in particular to a material box. Background Art

[0002] At present, in public places, there are some public facilities that require direct contact from people, such as buttons in elevators, switches in offices, etc.

[0003] In the related art, when people operate these public facilities, they need to directly contact these switches or buttons with their hands. However, since everyone needs to contact these public facilities, the bacteria on the surface of these public facilities will be transferred to people's hands, thereby affecting people's health. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related art.

[0005] To this end, the present invention provides a material box.

[0006] In view of this, the present invention provides a material box for holding rod-shaped materials, the material box comprising a shell assembly, a conveying assembly, a sensing assembly and a control component; the conveying assembly is arranged in the shell assembly for conveying the rod-shaped materials; the sensing assembly is arranged on the shell assembly, facing the outside of the shell assembly; the control component is respectively communicated with the conveying assembly and the sensing assembly.

[0007] The material box provided by the present invention can be placed in public places such as elevator rooms, elevator cars or offices; when a user needs to contact public facilities in a public place, the sensing component senses the user's relevant actions and transmits a control signal to the control component, and the control component controls the conveying component to convey the rod-shaped material to the outside of the shell component. The user can contact the public facilities through the rod-shaped material, thereby avoiding direct contact between the user and the material box, and also avoiding direct contact between the user and the public facilities, thereby avoiding the bacteria carried by the user from being transmitted to the public facilities or the material box, and also avoiding the bacteria on the material box or the public facilities from being transmitted to the user, thereby reducing the cross-transmission of bacteria between users, thereby reducing the impact on the user's health.

[0008] The rod-shaped material is a consumable material such as a toothpick or a cotton swab that has a certain hardness and can transmit force.

[0009] The shell component is provided with an opening, and the opening is provided corresponding to the sensing component to ensure that the sensing component can accurately sense the user's actions.

[0010] In addition, the material box in the above technical solution provided by the present invention may also have the following additional technical features:

[0011] In one technical solution of the present invention, the sensing component includes an infrared sensor and / or an image acquisition component.

[0012] In this technical solution, the infrared sensor and / or the image acquisition component can sense the user's actions, so that the control component can determine whether it is necessary to control the conveying component based on the user's actions, so that the user can pick up the rod-shaped material without contact.

[0013] The sensing component includes an infrared sensor, which can detect whether there is an obstacle in the sensing area, such as a user's hand. When there is an obstacle, the conveying component is driven to convey the rod-shaped material to prevent the user from contacting the material box when taking the rod-shaped material.

[0014] The sensing component includes an image acquisition component. When a user enters a public place, the image acquisition component can capture the user's image, and then drive the conveying component to convey the rod-shaped material, reducing misjudgment of the user, so that the sensing component can more accurately sense whether the user needs to take the rod-shaped material.

[0015] For example, in an elevator car, when the car door opens, the image acquisition component starts to acquire images, and the control component analyzes whether there is anyone in the image acquired by the image acquisition component. If there is someone, the conveying component is driven to convey the rod-shaped material.

[0016] The sensing component includes an infrared sensor and an image acquisition component. After the infrared sensor detects an obstacle in the sensing area, the image acquisition component collects an image in the sensing area, and the control component then identifies whether the obstacle in the sensing area is the user's hand based on the image; if it is the user's hand, the conveying component is driven to convey the rod-shaped material, thereby reducing misjudgment of the user, so that the sensing component can more accurately sense whether the user needs to take the rod-shaped material.

[0017] The shell component includes a sensing part, and a sensing hole is arranged on the sensing part, so that the sensing component can detect whether there is an obstacle approaching the sensing component through the sensing hole.

[0018] In one technical solution of the present invention, the shell assembly includes a shell and a storage bin; the storage bin is arranged in the shell for containing rod-shaped materials; a discharge port is arranged below the storage bin, and the rod-shaped materials can move to the conveying assembly through the discharge port.

[0019] In this technical solution, a storage bin is arranged inside the shell to store rod-shaped materials and reduce contamination of the rod-shaped materials. A discharge port is arranged at the bottom of the storage bin, and the rod-shaped materials can enter the conveying assembly through the discharge port.

[0020] The shell is cylindrical, and the cylindrical shell increases the contact area and maintains stability.

[0021] In one technical solution of the present invention, the shell assembly also includes a partition; the partition is connected to the shell, and the partition and the inner wall of the shell enclose a storage bin, and the rod-shaped material can be placed vertically in the storage bin; the discharge port is arranged on the partition, and the four sides of the partition are arranged to be inclined downward toward the discharge port.

[0022] In this technical solution, the partition is connected to the shell in the circumference, and the partition and the shell located above the partition form a storage bin to store rod-shaped materials; the partition is arranged to be inclined downward toward the discharge port on all sides, so that the partition is funnel-shaped. After the previous rod-shaped material is taken away, the next rod-shaped material will automatically enter the conveying component under the action of gravity.

[0023] The partition has a certain rear end, and the feed port is a channel vertically arranged on the partition. The channel can realize the positioning of the rod-shaped material, so that the conveying component can convey the rod-shaped material more smoothly.

[0024] The shell comprises an upper cover, a cylinder and a bottom cover, and the upper cover is provided with a material outlet.

[0025] In one technical solution of the present invention, the conveying assembly includes a lifting component and a first driving assembly; a first containing groove is arranged at the bottom of the lifting component, and an opening of the first containing groove is arranged toward the discharge port; the first driving assembly is connected to the lifting component to drive the lifting component to move, thereby driving the rod-shaped material to extend out of the shell assembly from the top of the shell assembly.

[0026] In this technical solution, a first containing groove is provided at the bottom of the lifting component, and the opening of the first containing groove is arranged toward the discharge port, so that the rod-shaped material can enter the lifting component from the discharge port; the first driving component drives the lifting component to rise and fall, so that the lifting component can push the rod-shaped material out of the component, so that the user can take the rod-shaped material.

[0028] In this technical solution, the first motor drives the cam to rotate. When the long axis end of the cam contacts the lifting component, the lifting component is lifted up. When the short axis end of the cam contacts the lifting component, the lifting component descends to the initial position under the action of the elastic force of the spring and its own gravity, thereby realizing the transportation of rod-shaped materials.

[0029] The conveying assembly also includes a bracket, which is installed on the bottom wall of the shell, and the first motor is installed on the bracket.

[0030] Specifically, the rod-shaped material is a toothpick. Currently, the diameter of a toothpick on the market is 1.5 mm, and the diameter of the first containing groove is 1.7 mm, so that just one and only one toothpick can smoothly enter the first containing groove.

[0031] The lifting component includes a spring retainer and a second push rod. One end of the second push rod is connected to the spring retainer, and the other end is provided with a first receiving groove. The second push rod is adapted to the channel on the partition.

A 6mm square hole is set on the cam, and the shaft extension of the first motor is inserted into the square hole. It is easy to process, has low precision requirements, runs smoothly and has little impact.

[0033] The number of the springs is three or four, and the springs are arranged along the circumference of the second push rod.

[0034] The induction component includes an induction probe and an induction circuit. When the infrared sensor senses the hand reaching out, it is processed by the control component to drive the first motor to rotate 180° and then stop. At this time, the rod-shaped material has been pushed out of the shell component by the push rod. After three seconds, the subsequent control component automatically controls the first motor to rotate 180° again, and another toothpick falls into the second push rod under the action of gravity.

[0035] One end of the spring is connected to the spring retainer, and the other end is connected to the partition.

[0039] In this technical solution, a second holding groove is arranged on the circumference of the roller. When the second holding groove rotates to a position opposite to the discharge port, the rod-shaped material enters the second holding groove. The roller continues to rotate, and the rod-shaped material rolls from the second holding groove to the guide plate and enters the third holding groove. Then the second driving assembly drives the rod-shaped material to extend out of the shell assembly.

[0040] The conveying assembly also includes a third motor, which is used to drive the roller to rotate.

[0041] In one technical solution of the present invention, the second driving component is a second motor, and the power output end of the second motor is connected to the conveying component to drive the conveying component to rotate, thereby driving the rod-shaped material to extend out of the shell component from the top of the shell component; or the second driving component is a first push rod, and the first push rod pushes the rod-shaped material to extend out of the shell component from the side of the shell component.
