[0028] As shown in Figure 10 The urine bag jig 6 includes a translation plate 23, a plurality of installation openings 24 are formed in the translation plate 23, a plurality of suction cup assemblies 25 are installed in the installation openings 24, and the suction nozzles of the suction cup assemblies 25 are flush with the upper end surface of the translation plate 23. The robot places the urine bag 50 on the translation plate 23, and the suction cup assemblies 25 suck the urine bag 50 to fix the urine bag 50.

[0029] As shown in Figure 4 , 5 The urine bag positioning assembly 10 includes a tube pressing pad 26, the tube pressing pad 26 connected to a third vertical driving mechanism 27, the third vertical driving mechanism 27 fixed to a fixed plate 52, the fixed plate 52 fixed to a vertical column 54, and a tube pressing groove 29 provided on the lower end surface of the tube pressing pad 26 and matched with the interface 28 of the urine bag 50.

[0030] As shown in Figure 4 , 6As shown in Figure 7, the urine bag assembly 9 includes a longitudinal drive mechanism 31. The longitudinal drive mechanism 31 is connected to pneumatic fingers 32 and 33. Pneumatic fingers 32 are connected to assembly clamp fingers 34 and 35. Pneumatic fingers 33 are connected to assembly clamp fingers 36 and 37. The longitudinal drive mechanism 31 is fixed on a fixed plate 53, which is fixed on a column 54.

A protective plate 43 is installed on the heat-insulating block 42, with a protective surface 44 higher than the heat-insulating block 42. When the urine bag 50 is connected to the long tube 51, the protective plate 43 isolates the hot-pressing rod 38, the hot-pressing rod fixing block 39 from the urine bag 50 and the long tube 51, preventing damage to the urine bag 50 and the long tube 51.

[0033] like Figure 8 As shown, the bag support assembly 11 includes a bag support plate 48 and a transverse drive mechanism 55. The bag support plate 48 has a bag support surface 49, which is located between the base frame 4 and the translational base plate 5. After assembly, the feeding mechanism picks up one side of the urine bag 50, and the other side of the urine bag 50 hangs down naturally. The transverse drive mechanism 55 drives the bag support plate 48 to move toward the urine bag 50 to support the urine bag 50.

[0034] like Figure 3As shown, the tube positioning assembly 1 includes an upper positioning assembly 13 and a lower positioning assembly 14. The upper positioning assembly 13 includes a longitudinal drive mechanism 15, which is connected to a pneumatic finger 16. The pneumatic finger 16 is connected to positioning clamping fingers 17 and 18. The lower positioning assembly 14 includes a longitudinal drive mechanism 19, which is connected to a pneumatic finger 20. The pneumatic finger 20 is connected to positioning clamping fingers 21 and 22. Because the long tube 51 is curved, one end of the long tube 51 is slightly tilted during positioning. To keep the long tube 51 straight, the upper positioning assembly 13 clamps the end of the long tube 51 from above and downwards, while the lower positioning assembly 14 clamps the end of the long tube 51 from below and upwards.

[0035] More specifically, the longitudinal drive mechanism 219 drives the pneumatic finger 20 to move upward, and the pneumatic finger 20 drives the positioning clamp finger 321 and the positioning clamp finger 422 to clamp the long tube 51. The longitudinal drive mechanism 15 drives the pneumatic finger 16 to move downward, and the pneumatic finger 16 drives the positioning clamp finger 17 and the positioning clamp finger 218 to clamp the long tube 51. The long tube 51 is positioned by the upper positioning component 13 and the lower positioning component 14, so that the end of the long tube 51 remains in a horizontal state.

[0036] The working steps of the cannulation mechanism of this urine bag and long tube assembly device are as follows:

[0037] a. Loading and alignment process: The initial position of the tube insertion mechanism is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the tube positioning component 1 clamps one end of the long tube 51, the robot arm places the urine bag 50 onto the urine bag fixture 6, the suction cup component 25 picks up the urine bag 50, the second transverse drive mechanism 8 drives the urine bag fixture 6 to move towards the urine bag positioning component 10 and the urine bag loading component 9, until it moves below the urine bag positioning component 10 and the urine bag loading component 9, the first transverse drive mechanism 7 drives the translation base plate 5 to move, causing the upper part of the material transfer assembly component 3 to move towards the alignment component 12, and the alignment plate 46 aligns the urine bag 5. Interface 28 of 0, longitudinal drive mechanism 3 27 drives the pressure tube pad 26 to move down, the pressure tube pad 26 presses the urine bag 50 interface 28, longitudinal drive mechanism 6 47 drives the aligning plate 46 to move down, longitudinal drive mechanism 4 31 drives the pneumatic fingers 3 32 and 4 33 to move down, pneumatic fingers 3 32 drives assembly clamp finger 1 34 and assembly clamp finger 2 35 to clamp the front part of interface 28, pneumatic fingers 4 33 drives assembly clamp finger 3 36 and assembly clamp finger 4 37 to clamp the rear part of interface 28;

[0038] b. Ironing process:

[0039] The transverse drive mechanism 17 drives the translation base plate 5 to move towards the hot-pressing station 2, and the hot-pressing rod 38 is inserted into the interface 28. The pneumatic finger 32 drives the assembly clamp finger 1 34 and the assembly clamp finger 2 35 to release the front of the interface 28. The hot-pressing rod 38 softens the interface 28. After softening, the transverse drive mechanism 17 drives the translation base plate 5 to move backward, and the interface 28 separates from the hot-pressing rod 38. The longitudinal drive mechanism 5 45 drives the hot-pressing station 2 to move downward, and the transverse drive mechanism 17 drives the translation base plate 5 to move, which in turn moves the upper part of the material transfer assembly component 3 towards the long tube 51.

[0040] c. Assembly process:

[0041] First insertion: When the upper part of the transfer assembly assembly 3 moves and is close to the end of the long tube 51, the pneumatic finger 32 drives the assembly clamp finger 1 34 and the assembly clamp finger 2 35 to clamp the front part of the interface 28. The transverse drive mechanism 1 7 drives the upper part of the transfer assembly assembly 3 to move forward, that is, the assembly clamp finger 1 34 and the assembly clamp finger 2 35 move forward. The end part of the long tube 51 is inserted into the interface 28. The pneumatic finger 32 drives the assembly clamp finger 1 34 and the assembly clamp finger 2 35 to release the front part of the interface 28. The lower positioning assembly 14 releases the long tube 51, that is, the pneumatic finger 2 20 drives the positioning clamp finger 3 21 and the positioning clamp finger 4 22 to release the long tube 51. The longitudinal drive mechanism 2 19 drives the positioning clamp finger 3 21 and the positioning clamp finger 4 22 to move downward, exposing part of the long tube 51.

[0042] Second insertion: The transverse drive mechanism 17 drives the upper part of the material transfer assembly 3 to continue moving forward, and the end of the long tube 51 continues to be inserted into the interface 28. The pneumatic finger 4 33 drives the assembly clamp finger 36 and assembly clamp finger 4 37 to release the interface 28. The longitudinal drive mechanism 4 31 drives the pneumatic finger 32 and pneumatic finger 4 33 to move upward, causing the pneumatic finger 32 and pneumatic finger 4 33 to move upward. The assembly clamp finger 1 34 and assembly clamp finger 2 35 leave the long tube 51. The assembly clamp finger 36 and assembly clamp finger 4 37 leave the long tube 51. The upper positioning assembly 13 releases the long tube 51, that is, the pneumatic finger 1 16 drives the positioning clamp finger 1 17 and positioning clamp finger 2 18 to release the long tube 51. The longitudinal drive mechanism 1 15 drives the positioning clamp finger 1 17 and positioning clamp finger 2 18 to move upward.

[0043] The urine bag assembly 9 includes two clamping parts, front and rear. The front clamping part and the rear clamping part cooperate with each other. During the first insertion, the front clamping part positions the interface 28, and the rear clamping part fixes the interface 28. The long tube 51 is inserted into the interface 28. Based on the first insertion, the second insertion is performed. The front clamping part releases the long tube 51, the lower positioning component 14 releases the long tube 51 and moves down, and the rear clamping part clamps the interface 28. The long tube 51 is inserted deeper into the interface 28. Through the two insertions, the long tube 51 is inserted into the interface 28 more deeply, the insertion is more precise, and the fixation between the long tube 51 and the urine bag 50 is more secure.

[0044] d. The material moving process: after the assembly is completed, the material feeding mechanism sucks one side of the urine bag 50, the other side of the urine bag 50 naturally hangs down, the horizontal driving mechanism three 55 drives the bag supporting plate 48 to move to the urine bag 50, and the urine bag 50 is supported, when the urine bag 50 is removed, the horizontal driving mechanism three 55 drives the bag supporting plate 48 to return to the original position.
