[0031] Embodiment 1

[0032] As Figures 1-8 shown, in this embodiment, an infusion set packaging method is provided, including the following steps:

[0033] A. Use a bag taking mechanism to take out the packaging bag from the bagging mechanism and transport it to the position of the bag opening mechanism;

[0034] B. Use the bag opening mechanism to open the packaging bag and transport the packaging bag to the position of the bag flipping mechanism;

[0035] C. Use a material conveying mechanism to convey the material into the packaging bag;

[0036] D. Use the bag flipping mechanism to fix and flip the horizontally placed packaging bag containing the material;

[0037] E. Use a packaging bag fixing mechanism to fix the flipped packaging bag and transport it to the sealing mechanism below the bag flipping mechanism for sealing;

[0038] F. After the packaging bag is sealed, it enters the conveying mechanism below the bag flipping mechanism for transportation.

[0039] In this embodiment, through the cooperation of steps A, B, C, D, E, and F, during the specific production process, the bag-taking mechanism takes out the packaging bags in the bagging mechanism and then transports them to the bag-opening mechanism. The bag-opening mechanism opens the packaging bags on the bag-taking mechanism and transports the packaging bags to the position of the bag-turning mechanism. The material-transporting mechanism transports the materials into the packaging bags to complete the placement of the materials. Then, the bag-turning mechanism fixes the packaging bags and turns the horizontally placed packaging bags filled with materials to a vertical state. The packaging bag fixing mechanism fixes the turned packaging bags and transports them to the sealing mechanism below the bag-turning mechanism for sealing. After the packaging bags are sealed, they enter the conveying mechanism below the bag-turning mechanism for transportation. By arranging the sealing mechanism and the conveying mechanism below the bag-turning mechanism and coordinating with the turning function of the bag-turning mechanism, the device makes full use of the longitudinal space in the production workshop, reduces the horizontal space occupied by the device, and thus reduces the production cost. For example, in an ordinary Class 100,000 production workshop, originally two devices could be installed. With this structure, three devices can be installed. One device produces 50,000 products. Placing two original devices in the production workshop can produce 100,000 products. While with the devices of this structure, in a production workshop, three devices can be placed and 150,000 products can be produced. In this embodiment, the material is an infusion set, and the packaging bag is a self-sealing packaging bag.

[0040] In this embodiment, the bagging mechanism includes a bagging box 101, and a through hole is opened on the bottom wall of the bagging box 101.

[0041] In this embodiment, the bag-taking mechanism includes a bag-taking movement mechanism, a bag-taking installation mechanism, a bearing plate 201, a first suction cup assembly, and a first suction cup lifting device. The bag-taking movement mechanism can drive the bag-taking installation mechanism to move left and right. The bearing plate 201 is fixed on the bag-taking installation mechanism. A first suction cup assembly is arranged on the bearing plate 201. The first suction cup assembly includes a plurality of first suction cups 202. The first suction cups 202 penetrate the bearing plate 201. The first suction cup lifting device is arranged on the bag-taking installation mechanism. The first suction cup lifting device can drive the first suction cup assembly to move up and down. The first suction cup assembly can suck down the packaging bags in the bagging mechanism. A notch 203 is provided on the left wall of the bearing plate 201.

[0042] During specific use, a stack of packaging bags is placed in the bagging box 101. When taking the bags, the first suction cup lifting device in the bag-taking mechanism is started to drive the first suction cup assembly to rise. The first suction cups 202 in the first suction cup assembly generate suction to attract the packaging bags at the bottom of the bagging box 101. Then, the first suction cup lifting device descends, driving the first suction cup assembly to descend, and further driving the packaging bags to descend, so that the packaging bags are placed on the bearing plate 201, thus realizing the bag-taking operation.

[0043] In this embodiment, the bag opening mechanism includes a bag opening motion mechanism, a bag opening installation mechanism, an upper suction cup assembly 301, a lower suction cup assembly 302, an upper suction cup lifting device, and a lower suction cup lifting device. The bag opening motion mechanism can drive the bag opening installation mechanism to move left and right. The upper suction cup lifting device and the lower suction cup lifting device are both installed on the bag opening installation mechanism. The upper suction cup assembly 301 is connected to the upper suction cup lifting device, and the upper suction cup lifting device can drive the upper suction cup assembly 301 to move up and down. The lower suction cup assembly 302 is connected to the lower suction cup lifting device, and the lower suction cup lifting device can drive the lower suction cup assembly 302 to move up and down.

[0044] After the bag taking mechanism takes out the packaging bag from the bag loading box 101, at this time, the left end opening part of the packaging bag is located above the notch 203. The bag taking motion mechanism drives the carrier plate 201 to run between the upper suction cup assembly 301 and the lower suction cup assembly 302. Then, the upper suction cup lifting device and the lower suction cup lifting device are started, driving the upper suction cup assembly 301 and the lower suction cup assembly 302 to move towards each other. The upper suction cup assembly 301 attracts the top wall of the packaging bag, and the lower suction cup assembly attracts the bottom wall of the lower suction cup assembly 302 through the notch 203. Then, they respectively return to a certain position, so that the opening on the left side of the packaging bag is opened, and the bag taking mechanism returns to its original position, thus realizing the opening of the packaging bag.

[0045] In this embodiment, the material conveying mechanism includes a material conveying driving mechanism, a material conveying groove 601, and a material pushing mechanism. The material conveying driving mechanism is connected to the material conveying groove 601, and the material conveying driving mechanism can drive the material conveying groove 601 to move left and right. The material pushing mechanism can push the materials in the material conveying groove 601 into the packaging bag. In this embodiment, the material conveying mechanism adopts the existing technology and will not be elaborated here.

[0046] In this embodiment, the bag turning mechanism includes a turning motor 401, a turning assembly 402, and a turning suction cup assembly 403. The output shaft of the turning motor 401 is connected to the turning assembly. The turning motor 401 can drive the turning assembly 402 to turn in the vertical plane. The turning suction cup assembly 403 is fixed on the turning assembly 402. When the turning suction cup assembly 403 is horizontally arranged, it is at the same height as the lower suction cup assembly 302. The turning suction cup assembly 403 and the lower suction cup assembly 302 are misaligned in the front-back direction. In this embodiment, the turning suction cup assembly 403 and the lower suction cup assembly 302 are misaligned in the front-back direction to enable the turning suction cup assembly 403 and the lower suction cup assembly 302 to contact the bottom wall of the packaging bag simultaneously, realizing the attraction of the turning suction cup assembly 403 to the packaging bag.

[0047] In this embodiment, the sealing mechanism includes a sealing component and an exhaust component. The exhaust component can exhaust the packaging bag, and the sealing component can seal the packaging bag. In this embodiment, the packaging bag fixing mechanism adopts the existing technology and will not be elaborated here. In this embodiment, the sealing component adopts the existing technology and will not be elaborated here.

[0048] In this embodiment, there are two clamping plates 501 and two clamping plate driving mechanisms inside the exhaust assembly. The two clamping plate driving mechanisms are respectively connected to the two clamping plates 501. The clamping plates 501 are foam plates, and the two clamping plates 501 can contact each other to exhaust the packaging bag.

[0049] After the bag opening mechanism opens the packaging bag, the bag opening movement mechanism drives the packaging bag to move to the position where the bag turning mechanism is located. The material conveying driving mechanism drives the material conveying groove 601 to move into the packaging bag. Then, the material pushing mechanism pushes the material into the packaging bag, and the material conveying groove 601 returns to its original position to complete the bagging of the material. At the same time, the flipping suction cup assembly 403 attracts the bottom wall of the packaging bag. After the material is bagged, the bag opening mechanism returns to its original position. At this time, the horizontally placed packaging bag containing the material is attracted and fixed by the flipping suction cup assembly 403. Then, the flipping motor 401 starts to drive the flipping assembly 402 to rotate, thereby driving the flipping suction cup assembly 403 to rotate. The packaging bag containing the material is flipped 90 degrees to a vertical state. After the packaging bag fixing mechanism fixes the vertical packaging bag, it drives the packaging bag to move. The packaging bag is located between the two clamping plates 501, and the top of the packaging bag is located above the two clamping plates 501. Then, the two clamping plates 501 move towards each other to clamp and exhaust the packaging bag, and the sealing assembly seals the part of the packaging bag above the clamping plates 501. The two clamping plates 501 return to their original positions, the packaging bag fixing mechanism releases, and the packaging bag falls onto the conveying mechanism for conveying, thus realizing the exhaust and sealing of the packaging bag.

[0050] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention, and they should all be covered by the scope of the claims and the description of the present invention.
