Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of disposable sampling swab production equipment, and more specifically, to an automatic packaging machine for disposable sampling swabs. Background Art

[0002] Disposable sampling swabs are suitable for collecting microorganisms, and can assist hospitals or laboratories in testing viruses or studying virus sampling. They are used to collect biological samples from natural cavities of humans or animals, such as the throat, nasal cavity, oral cavity, vagina, etc. They can also be used for disease detection in the human oral cavity or nasal cavity. Sampling swabs are required to collect oral epidermal cells or nasal virus samples, and the cells or samples are stored in collection tubes and then transferred to the laboratory for testing.

[0003] However, disposable sampling swabs are still packaged manually or semi-automatically. This not only results in low packaging efficiency and high labor consumption, but also causes uneven quality of the finished products after packaging, which is difficult to control. Therefore, a unified standard automated sampling swab packaging equipment is needed. Summary of the invention

[0004] 1. Technical issues to be solved

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an automatic packaging machine for disposable sampling swabs.
