Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to an automatic paper roll preparation device and an automatic paper roll assembly system. Background Technology

[0002] In the medical field, various paper materials are involved, including but not limited to humidifying paper, absorbent paper, moisture-absorbing paper, and soft paper. These typically require rolling into semi-finished rolls of suitable size, and then gluing the ends of these rolls to prevent loosening, thus obtaining the finished rolls. These rolls are then manually assembled into housings (including but not limited to artificial nasal covers) and proceed to the next process. However, manual roll preparation results in low automation and low work efficiency. Summary of the Invention

However, this application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0041] Figure 7 A schematic diagram of the structure of the flipping mechanism 80 of an embodiment of this application, showing the material support member in the second position, is shown. Figure 8 This illustration shows another structural view of an automatic paper roll assembly system according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 9 It shows Figure 8 An enlarged structural diagram at point E. One embodiment of this application provides an automatic paper roll assembly system, which includes an automatic paper roll preparation device. The automatic paper roll preparation device includes: a first conveying mechanism 10, an automatic paper roll assembly 20, a clamping and feeding assembly 30, a cutting mechanism 40, and an ejection mechanism 50. The first conveying mechanism 10 is used to convey paper material 92. The automatic paper roll assembly 20 includes a first rotating mechanism 21 and a fixing part 22 connected to the first rotating mechanism 21. The fixing part 22 is used to fix the head of the paper material 92, and the first rotating mechanism 21 is used to drive the fixing part 22 to rotate. The clamping and feeding assembly 30 includes a first moving mechanism 31 and a first clamping mechanism 32 for clamping the paper material 92. The first moving mechanism 31 is connected to the first clamping mechanism 32 to drive the paper material 92 clamped by the first clamping mechanism 32 to move towards the fixing part 22, so that the head of the paper material 92 is fixed on the fixing part 22. The cutting mechanism 40 is used to cut the paper material 92. The ejection mechanism 50 is used to eject the roll of paper on the fixing part 22, so that the roll of paper is detached from the fixing part 22.

[0042] In the aforementioned automatic paper roll preparation device, during paper roll preparation, the first conveying mechanism 10 conveys paper material 92, the first clamping mechanism 32 of the clamping and feeding assembly 30 clamps the paper material 92, and the first moving mechanism 31 drives the paper material 92 clamped by the first clamping mechanism 32 to move towards the fixing part 22, so that the head of the paper material 92 is fixed on the fixing part 22; the first rotating mechanism 21 correspondingly drives the fixing part 22 to rotate, so that the paper roll is wound on the fixing part 22, and the rotation stops when the number of winding turns of the paper roll reaches a preset range; the paper material 92 is cut by the cutting mechanism 40, and the paper roll on the fixing part 22 is ejected by the ejection mechanism 50. Thus, the paper roll manufacturing process does not require manual intervention, realizing automated paper roll preparation, while eliminating the adhesive process, improving assembly quality, reducing labor costs, and increasing work efficiency.

[0043] In one embodiment, the automatic paper roll assembly system further includes: an assembly table 60, a second conveying mechanism 70, a flipping mechanism 80, and a pressing mechanism 91. The assembly table 60 is provided with at least one positioning part 61 for positioning a housing (not shown). The second conveying mechanism 70 is used to convey the housing to the positioning part 61. The flipping mechanism 80 includes a material support 81, which is used to drive the material support 81 to flip to a first position and a second position (e.g., ...). Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, in the first position, the material support 81 corresponds to the position of the fixing part 22 to receive the roll of paper ejected from the fixing part 22. In the second position, the material support 81 corresponds to the position of the positioning part 61. Optionally, the material support 81 is provided with a through hole 811. The ejected roll of paper enters the through hole 811 accordingly. The pressing mechanism 91 includes a pressing part 911 corresponding to the position of the material support 81, which is used to drive the pressing part 911 to move up and down, so that the roll of paper in the material support 81 is pressed into the housing of the positioning part 61 corresponding to the position of the material support 81.

[0044] In the aforementioned automatic paper roll assembly system, during operation, the housing is conveyed to the positioning part 61 via the second conveying mechanism 70, where the positioning part 61 positions the housing; the paper material 92 is conveyed via the first conveying mechanism 10, and the first clamping mechanism 32 of the clamping and feeding assembly 30 clamps the paper material 92; the first moving mechanism 31 drives the paper material 92 clamped by the first clamping mechanism 32 to move towards the fixing part 22, fixing the head of the paper material 92 onto the fixing part 22; the first rotating mechanism 21 correspondingly drives the fixing part 22 to rotate. The paper roll is wound onto the fixed part 22 by a mechanism 40, and stops rotating when the number of turns reaches a preset range. The paper 92 is cut by the cutting mechanism 40, and the paper roll is ejected from the fixed part 22 by the ejection mechanism 50. The ejected paper roll enters the material support frame 81, and the flipping mechanism 80 flips the material support frame 81 to a second position. The pressing mechanism 91 drives the pressing part 911 to rise and fall, pressing the paper roll in the material support frame 81 into the housing corresponding to the position of the material support frame 81. Thus, the feeding of the housing, the manufacturing of the paper roll, and the pressing into the housing are all automated without manual intervention, achieving automated paper rolling. This also eliminates the need for gluing processes and automated assembly, improving assembly quality, reducing labor costs, and increasing work efficiency.

[0045] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment, the positioning units 61 are provided in multiples and arranged sequentially at intervals along the circumference of the assembly table 60. Furthermore, the automatic paper roll assembly system also includes a second rotating mechanism 93. The second rotating mechanism 93 is connected to the assembly table 60 and is used to drive the assembly table 60 to rotate. Optionally, the assembly table 60 may be provided with, for example, a loading station, an assembly station, and an unloading station. The output end of the second conveying mechanism 70 is opposite to the loading station, conveying the housing to the positioning part 61 located at the loading station. Driven by the second rotating mechanism 93, the housing at the positioning part 61 of the loading station rotates to the next station. When the fixing part 22 moves the housing to the assembly station, the material support frame 81 corresponds to the position of the positioning part 61 located at the assembly station. The pressing mechanism 91 drives the pressing part 911 to move up and down, so that the roll of paper in the material support frame 81 is pressed into the housing of the positioning part 61 corresponding to the position of the material support frame 81. The second rotating mechanism 93 continues to drive the assembly table 60 to rotate, rotating the housing with the assembled roll of paper to the unloading station, where the unloading action is performed. Since there are multiple positioning parts 61, when one positioning part 61 rotates to the loading station for loading, another positioning part 61 rotates to the assembly station for assembly, and yet another positioning part 61 rotates to the unloading station for unloading, the work efficiency is improved.

[0046] In one embodiment, the positioning part 61 on the assembly table 60 may be set to one, two, three, four, five, six or other quantities, which can be flexibly adjusted and set according to actual needs.

[0047] In one embodiment, the positioning part 61 is, for example, a notch or recess on the edge of the assembly table 60, which adapts to and limits the positioning rod on the bottom of the housing. In this way, the housing output from the output end of the second conveying mechanism 70 to the loading station can directly enter the positioning part 61 and be positioned there; in addition, when the assembly table 60 drives the housing with the assembled paper roll to the unloading station, it can also be easily detached from the positioning part 61.

[0048] Of course, as some alternative solutions, the positioning part 61 can also be, for example, at least one positioning protrusion provided on the assembly table 60, and the positioning of the housing is achieved by the positioning protrusion abutting against the outer wall of the housing.

[0049] In one embodiment, the first rotating mechanism 21 and the second rotating mechanism 93 are each, including but not limited to, being configured as a motor or other power device capable of providing rotational force.

[0050] Please see Figure 3 In one embodiment, the automated paper roll assembly system further includes a second clamping mechanism 94 and a transfer component 95. The second clamping mechanism 94 is used to clamp or release the housing. The transfer component 95 is connected to the second clamping mechanism 94 and is used to move the second clamping mechanism 94 from the unloading station of the assembly table 60 to the next process station. Thus, when the housing containing the paper roll moves to the unloading station, the transfer component 95 moves the second clamping mechanism 94 to the unloading station and clamps the paper roll there. Then, the transfer component 95 moves the second clamping mechanism 94 to the next process station, thereby enabling the transfer of the housing containing the paper roll from the unloading station on the assembly table to the next process station without manual transfer, resulting in a high degree of automation and high work efficiency.

[0051] Please see Figure 3 In one embodiment, the transfer component 95 may include a first transfer mechanism 951 that moves along a first direction, the first transfer mechanism 951 being connected to a second clamping mechanism 94 and driving the second clamping mechanism 94 to move and adjust its position along the first direction; or it may include a first transfer mechanism 951 that moves along the first direction and a second transfer mechanism 952 that moves along a second direction, the second transfer mechanism 952 being connected to the first transfer mechanism 951, thereby enabling the position of the housing to be adjusted by moving along the first and second directions; or it may include a first transfer mechanism 951 that moves along the first direction, a second transfer mechanism 952 that moves along the second direction, and a third transfer mechanism that moves along a third direction.

[0052] Optionally, the first clamping mechanism 32 and the second clamping mechanism 94 may be, but are not limited to, various forms of clamping mechanisms such as pneumatic grippers, hydraulic grippers, motor screw-driven grippers, motor cam-driven grippers, and motor gear-driven grippers. The specific clamping mechanism can be flexibly adjusted and set according to actual needs.

[0053] Optionally, the first transfer mechanism 951, the second transfer mechanism 952, the third transfer mechanism, and the first moving mechanism 31 may each include, but are not limited to, power mechanisms such as cylinders, hydraulic cylinders, motor lead screws, motor gears, motor pulleys, and motor cam power mechanisms.

[0054] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 8 In one embodiment, the second conveying mechanism 70 includes a vibratory feeder 71 and a conveyor 72. The discharge port of the vibratory feeder 71 is connected to one end of the conveyor 72, and the other end of the conveyor 72 faces the loading station of the assembly table 60, used to convey the housings to the positioning part 61 located at the loading station. Thus, during the vibration of the vibratory feeder 71, the housings inside are arranged sequentially and enter the conveyor 72, which then conveys the housings one by one to the positioning part 61 located at the loading station. The housings conveyed to the positioning part 61 move to the assembly station under the rotation of the assembly table 60, indicating a high degree of automation and high work efficiency.

[0055] In one embodiment, the conveying channel inside the vibratory feeder 71 is provided with a fixing plate spaced apart from the inner wall of the vibratory feeder 71. The distance between the fixing plate and the inner wall of the vibratory feeder 71 is adapted to the size of the housing, which prevents the housing from moving axially during conveying and ensures the conveying direction and conveying stability. In addition, the size of the discharge port of the vibratory feeder 71 is adapted to the size of the housing, so that the housings are output one by one.

[0056] Please see Figure 1 In one embodiment, the conveying component 72 includes a conveying base plate 721 and at least one limiting rib 722 spaced above the conveying base plate 721. When the housing reaches the conveying component 72, the conveying base plate 721 supports the conveying housing, and the limiting rib 722 fixes the top surface of the housing, ensuring stable arrangement and accurate conveying. In this embodiment, the positioning part 61 is set as a notch on the edge of the assembly table 60, and the tail end of the conveying component 72 faces the notch that rotates to the loading station. The width of the notch is larger than the outer diameter of the positioning rod on the bottom of the housing, so that the positioning rods are spaced apart when inserted into the notch. This can fix and limit a single housing at a time, and through the continuous rotation of the assembly table 60, the housing is conveyed to the next station.

[0057] Please see Figure 1In one embodiment, the automatic paper roll assembly system further includes a frame 96. The first conveying mechanism 10 includes a support 11 connected to the frame 96, a reel 12 rotatably connected to the support 11, and a drive wheel 13 and a driven wheel 14 connected to the frame 96. Optionally, the assembly table 60, the first rotating mechanism 21, the first moving mechanism 31, the cutting mechanism 40, the ejection mechanism 50, the flipping mechanism 80, and the pressing mechanism 91 are all connected to the frame 96. Thus, driven by the drive wheel 13, the paper 92 wound on the reel 12 is gradually unwound. Guided by the driven wheel 14 and driven by the first rotating mechanism 21, the paper 92 smoothly winds onto the fixing part 22, thereby obtaining a paper roll.

[0058] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 8 In one embodiment, a third rotating mechanism 15 is provided on the frame 96. The third rotating mechanism 15 is connected to the drive wheel 13 and drives the drive wheel 13 to rotate. When the drive wheel 13 rotates, it drives the paper 92 to move accordingly through the friction between itself and the paper 92. Optionally, the drive wheel 13 may include, but is not limited to, being a rubber wheel, which has a large frictional force with the paper 92 when in contact with it, while causing less damage to the paper 92. The third rotating mechanism 15 may be provided with a servo motor, for example. The rubber wheel is connected to the rotating shaft at the head end of the servo motor by screws, for example, and can be driven to rotate by the servo motor. At the same time, the servo motor is connected to the frame 96 by screws and is located on the opposite side of the rubber wheel. During feeding, the paper 92 is conveyed forward by the friction between the rubber wheel and the paper 92.

[0059] In one embodiment, compared to the driving wheel 13, the driven wheels 14 mainly serve to guide the paper 92, and their number is correspondingly increased to improve the guiding effect. Specifically, the driven wheels 14 can be flexibly set to, for example, two, three, four, five, six, or other quantities according to actual needs. Optionally, the driven wheels 14 are, for example, rollers, which are connected to the flat plate of the frame 96 by screws, with limit plates on both sides of the rollers, and the rollers and roller shafts are clearance-fitted to allow free rotation.

[0060] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 6 In one embodiment, at least two reels 12 are connected side-by-side and spaced apart to a support 11. The support 11 is movably connected to a frame 96. The automatic paper roll assembly system also includes a second moving mechanism 16 connected to the support 11, which drives the support 11 to move. Thus, by moving and adjusting the position of the support 11 through the second moving mechanism 16, paper 92 from at least two reels 12 can be sequentially put into use.

[0061] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 6In one embodiment, the bottom of the support 11 is provided with a slider 17, and a corresponding slide rail 18 is provided on the frame 96, with the slider 17 slidably connected to the slide rail 18. Specifically, there are, for example, two slide rails 18, spaced apart from each other. There are correspondingly two sliders 17 located on the two slide rails 18. Optionally, the two sliders 17 are connected to a movable plate 19, and the support 11 is mounted on the movable plate 19.

[0062] Please see Figure 4 In one embodiment, the automatic paper roll assembly system further includes a receiving shell 97 disposed below one of the reels 12, the receiving shell 97 having a pre-set slot 971 for receiving paper 92. In this way, the paper 92 released from the reel 12 will enter the pre-set slot 971, ensuring that the length of the paper 92 is large enough, that is, leaving a certain margin, to ensure the stability of the paper 92 conveying process.

[0063] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 In one embodiment, the automatic winding assembly 20 further includes a rotating disk 23 connected between the first rotating mechanism 21 and the fixing part 22. The first rotating mechanism 21 is connected to one side of the frame 96, and the rotating disk 23 is located on the other side of the frame 96. The fixing part 22 includes two positioning pins 221 connected to the rotating disk 23, the gap between the two positioning pins 221 being less than or equal to the thickness of the paper material 92. The first moving mechanism 31 is used to drive the head of the paper material 92 held by the first clamping mechanism 32 through the gap between the two positioning pins 221 and clamp and fix it between the two positioning pins 221.

[0064] Specifically, the first moving mechanism 31 is connected to the first clamping mechanism 32 via the first connecting plate 33. The first moving mechanism 31, for example, is mounted on the frame 96 and is specifically designed as a cylinder to drive the first connecting plate 33 to move up and down, thereby causing the first clamping mechanism 32 to move up and down as well. This allows the head of the paper material 92 held by the first clamping mechanism 32 to pass through the gap between the two positioning pins 221 and be fixed between them. After the head of the paper material 92 is fixed between the two positioning pins 221, the first clamping mechanism 32 releases the head of the paper material 92 and resets under the movement of the first moving mechanism 31. Then, driven by the first rotating mechanism 21, the paper material 92 can be wound around the fixing part 22.

[0065] In the process of clamping the head of the paper 92 through the gap between the two positioning pins 221, in order to avoid interference between the first clamping mechanism 32 and the two positioning pins 221, the first clamping mechanism 32 specifically clamps one side of the head of the paper 92 and faces the gap between the two positioning pins 221, so that the head of the paper 92 passes through the gap between the two positioning pins 221 and is clamped and fixed between the two positioning pins 221.

[0066] In one embodiment, the first clamping mechanism 32 includes a cylinder and a robotic arm, the cylinder being connected to the robotic arm, and the cylinder controlling the robotic arm to clamp or release the paper material 92.

[0067] In one embodiment, the positioning pin 221 is fixed to the rotating disk 23 by means of welding, snap-fitting, bonding, riveting, threaded connection, etc., and can rotate with the rotating disk 23.

[0068] In one embodiment, the paper roll 92 is wound by a motor-controlled mechanism that grips and rotates the fixed paper roll 92. During the winding process, a set number of rotations is sent to the motor, causing the rotating disk 23 and the two positioning pins 221 to rotate. When the set number of rotations is reached, the winding action of the paper roll 92 is completed. The size of the rolled paper can be freely adjusted by adjusting the number of rotations.

[0069] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 9 In one embodiment, the cutting mechanism 40 is arranged adjacent to the fixing part 22. The cutting mechanism 40 includes a first cutting element 41, a second cutting element 42, and a third moving mechanism 43. The first cutting element 41 is fixed on the frame 96, and the third moving mechanism 43 is connected to the second cutting element 42. The third moving mechanism 43 is used to drive the second cutting element 42 to move closer to or away from the first cutting element 41. The first cutting element 41 and the second cutting element 42 are located on opposite sides of the paper material 92.

[0070] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 9 In one embodiment, the first cutting element 41 and the second cutting element 42 are each, for example, blades. The shearing surfaces of the first cutting element 41 and the second cutting element 42 are flush with each other. Driven by the third moving mechanism 43, the second cutting element 42 performs a shearing motion to cut the paper material 92.

[0071] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 5In one embodiment, the ejection mechanism 50 includes a fourth moving mechanism 51, a second connecting plate 52, a first connecting rod 53, and a push plate 54. The fourth moving mechanism 51 is mounted on the second connecting plate 52, which is connected to the frame 96 via the first connecting rod 53. The fourth moving mechanism 51 is connected to the push plate 54 and is used to drive the push plate 54 to move. The push plate 54 is located on the side close to the fixed part 22 of the first rotating mechanism 21. Thus, when the fourth moving mechanism 51 is activated, it causes the push plate 54 to move forward. Since the push plate 54 is located on the side close to the fixed part 22 of the first rotating mechanism 21, that is, on the rear side of the automatic winding assembly 20, it can drive the paper roll wound on the fixed part 22 to move forward, so that the paper roll enters the material support frame 81.

[0072] In one embodiment, the flipping mechanism 80 is used to drive the material support frame 81 to flip from the vertical direction to the horizontal direction, that is, to adjust the roll of paper entering the material support frame 81 to a position opposite to the housing, and to flip from the horizontal direction to the vertical direction, that is, to adjust the material support from a position opposite to the housing to a position opposite to the fixing part 22.

[0073] It should be noted that the flipping mechanism 80 includes a fifth moving mechanism. The fifth moving mechanism is connected to the material support frame 81 via a linkage assembly. When the fifth moving mechanism drives the linkage assembly, the linkage assembly correspondingly drives the material support frame 81 to rotate. There are many specific configurations for the linkage assembly; as long as it can control the material support frame 81 to rotate in one direction when the fifth moving mechanism extends and to rotate in the other direction when the fifth moving mechanism retracts, it is acceptable.

[0074] Please see Figure 3 In one embodiment, the automatic paper roll assembly system further includes a fourth rotation mechanism 98 connected to the pressing mechanism 91. The fourth rotation mechanism 98 drives the pressing mechanism 91 to rotate by a preset angle, such as 180°, so that the pressing part 911 of the pressing mechanism 91 rotates to a position opposite to or offset from the positioning part 61. Thus, when the paper roll in the tray 81 is pressed into the housing of the positioning part 61 corresponding to the position of the tray 81, the pressing part 911 of the pressing mechanism 91 resets. Furthermore, the fourth rotation mechanism 98 drives the pressing mechanism 91 to rotate by the preset angle so that the pressing part 911 is offset from the positioning part 61, so that there is no interference between the pressing part 911 and the tray 81 during the process of the flipping mechanism 80 driving the tray 81 to flip from the second position to the first position.

[0075] In one embodiment, an automatic paper roll assembly method employs the automatic paper roll assembly system of any of the above embodiments, and the automatic paper roll assembly method includes the following steps:

[0076] The housing is conveyed to the positioning part 61 via the second conveying mechanism 70;

[0077] Paper material 92 is conveyed by the first conveying mechanism 10, paper material 92 is clamped by the first clamping mechanism 32, and the first moving mechanism 31 drives the paper material 92 clamped by the first clamping mechanism 32 to move toward the fixing part 22, so that the head of the paper material 92 is fixed on the fixing part 22.

[0078] The first rotating mechanism 21 drives the fixing part 22 to rotate together with the clamped paper material 92, so that the paper is wound on the fixing part 22 to form a roll of paper. The rotation stops when the number of turns of the roll of paper reaches the preset range.

[0079] The paper 92 is cut by the cutting mechanism 40, and the roll of paper on the fixing part 22 is ejected by the ejection mechanism 50;

[0080] The ejected roll of paper smoothly enters the material support frame 81, and the flipping mechanism 80 drives the material support frame 81 to flip to the second position;

[0081] The pressing mechanism 91 drives the pressing part 911 to lift and lower, so that the roll of paper in the material support frame 81 is pressed into the housing corresponding to the position of the material support frame 81.

[0082] The above-mentioned automatic paper roll assembly method eliminates the need for manual intervention in the feeding of the housing, the manufacturing of the paper roll, and the pressing into the housing. This achieves automated paper roll assembly, eliminates the need for gluing processes, and automates assembly, thereby improving assembly quality, reducing labor costs, and increasing work efficiency.

[0083] In the description of this application, it should be understood that if terms such as "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" appear, these terms indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

[0084] Furthermore, where the terms "first" and "second" appear, these terms are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this application, where the term "multiple" appears, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0085] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0086] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the use of descriptions such as "above" or "below" the second feature indicates that the first and second features are in direct contact or indirect contact via an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "over" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. Similarly, "below," "below," and "under" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0087] It should be noted that if an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. If an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. If so, the terms "vertical," "horizontal," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this application are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementation.

[0088] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0089] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
