Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: a medical packaging machine suitable for a sterilization supply center, comprising a conveying mechanism 2, a folding mechanism 3, a limiting mechanism 4 and a packaging mechanism 5 sequentially installed on a frame 1;

[0031] The conveying mechanism 2 is specifically a conveyor belt with a self-driving device, and is installed at the side end of the frame 1. When packaging, the product is placed on the conveyor belt and transferred to the folding mechanism 3;

[0032] The folding mechanism 3 is arranged in the middle of the frame 1 near the inner end of the conveying mechanism 2, and the folding mechanism 3 includes a support plate 31, a rotating seat 32, a column 33, an adjustment disk 34, an adjustment motor 35 and a flipping mechanism 7. The support plate 31 is fixed to the middle section of the support rod of the frame 1, and a rotating seat 32 is fixedly arranged on the support plate 31. The middle of the rotating seat 32 is rotatably connected with a column 33, and an adjustment disk 34 is fixed on the top of the column 33. The rotation of the column 33 can drive the rotation of the adjustment disk 34, thereby completing the adjustment of the product direction on the adjustment disk 34;

[0033] A driven gear 37 is fixed to the outer side of the column 33 near the bottom end, and a driving gear 36 is fixed to the top of the output shaft of the adjustment motor 35. The driving gear 36 and the driven gear 37 are meshedly connected. The adjustment motor 35 rotates to drive the driving gear 36 to rotate, and the driving gear 36 drives the driven gear 37 meshed with it to rotate, thereby driving the rotation of the column 33.

[0034] In order to facilitate accurate control of the rotation angle of the column, the adjustment motor 35 is specifically a low-speed servo motor.

[0035] Four hollow areas are evenly formed on the outer periphery of the adjustment disk 34 , and the turning mechanism 7 cooperates with the hollow areas to complete the folding of the product transferred to the adjustment disk 34 .

[0036] A flip mechanism 7 is also provided on the support plate 31 near the rotating seat 32. The flip mechanism 7 includes an articulated seat 71, a first cylinder 72, an arc rod 73, an L-shaped support rod 74, an arc sleeve 75 and a flip plate 76. The articulated seat 71 is fixed on the support plate 31, and the bottom end of the first cylinder 72 is rotatably connected in the articulated seat 71. An L-shaped support rod 74 is also fixed on the support plate 31, and an arc sleeve 75 is fixed at the other end of the L-shaped support rod 74. The arc rod 73 is sleeved in the arc sleeve 75, and the bottom end of the arc rod 73 is rotatably connected to the top end of the telescopic shaft of the first cylinder 72. A flip plate 76 is fixed to the top end of the arc rod 73. The flip plate 76 is driven by the telescopic shaft of the first cylinder 72 to flip upward in a circular direction, thereby completing the flipping process of the folded part of the product on the adjustment plate 34.

[0037] In order to facilitate the flip plate 76 to complete the flipping process of the product upward from the hollow area of ​​the adjustment plate 34, the flip plate 76 is specifically an oblong plate, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the flip plate 76 is not larger than the area of ​​the hollow area on the adjustment plate 34;

[0038] In order to cooperate with the turning mechanism 7 to determine the turning position, a limiting mechanism 4 is fixed on one side of the frame 1 near the folding mechanism 3.

[0039] The limiting mechanism 4 is provided with a limiting rod 43 for cooperating with the folding mechanism 3 to complete the determination of the folding position of the product to be packaged. The limiting mechanism 4 includes a second cylinder 41, a third cylinder 42 and a limiting rod 43. The second cylinder 41 is fixed on the top side of the frame 1, and the third cylinder 42 is vertically fixed to the end of the telescopic shaft of the second cylinder 41. The end of the telescopic shaft of the third cylinder 42 is fixed parallel to the limiting rod 43. The second cylinder 41 drives the third cylinder 42 to adjust the position on the frame 1, thereby completing the determination of the flipping position. The limiting rod 43 is then opened by the third cylinder 42, so that the limiting rod 43 is stuck in the position where the product needs to be flipped. The fixed position flipping of the product is completed by the flipping mechanism 7, which is convenient for completing the inner flip packaging of the product. After the flipping is completed, the third cylinder 42 is folded to bring the limiting rod 43 out of the product, which is convenient for the next flip packaging.

[0041] The other side of the frame 1 is also provided with a packaging mechanism 5, on which a packaging clamp is provided for bundling the folded products; the packaging mechanism 5 comprises a fourth cylinder 51, a U-shaped frame 52, a lower clamp 53, a rotating sleeve 54, a fifth cylinder 55 and an upper clamp 56, the fourth cylinder 51 is fixed to the frame 1, the U-shaped frame 52 is fixed to the end of the telescopic shaft of the fourth cylinder 51, the lower clamp 53 is rotatably connected to the inner bottom surface of the U-shaped frame 52, the rotating sleeve 54 is rotatably connected to the inner top surface of the U-shaped frame 52, the fifth cylinder 55 is fixed in the rotating sleeve 54, and the fifth cylinder 55 is fixed in the rotating sleeve 54. An upper clamping plate 56 is fixed to the bottom end of the telescopic shaft 55. After the product is folded, the fourth cylinder 51 is started to clamp the product between the lower clamping plate 53 and the upper clamping plate 56, and then the fifth cylinder 55 is started to drive the upper clamping plate 56 to move downward to clamp the product, and then the fourth cylinder 51 is retracted to move the product from the adjustment plate 34, and at the same time, the product is exposed in the hollow area of ​​the frame, and the product packaging can be completed by manually sealing the position to be closed with tape, which is simple and convenient, easy to operate and use. In order to facilitate the clamping of the product and the observation of the folded product, the lower clamping plate 53 and the upper clamping plate 56 are both grid plates with the same area.

[0042] A collecting trough 6 is also provided below the packaging mechanism 5 in the frame 1 for collecting the packaged products. After a certain amount of products are collected, the products can be taken out.
