The connector isolation cap is unscrewed and placed in the collection box; the leak detection mechanism can adopt the inflation leak detection mechanism in the prior art CN219383065U, which is used to detect whether the storage bag is leaking. After inflation and voltage stabilization, the leak detector is used to determine whether the cryopreservation bag is leaking. After detection, the air in the bag is extracted for filling; the filling weighing mechanism is used to weigh the cryopreservation bag before filling and the cryopreservation bag after filling to detect and control the filling accuracy. The number of filling mechanisms and the weighing method can be set as needed, and a filling mechanism can be set The mechanism can also be provided with multiple filling mechanisms; the blowing and exhausting mechanism is used to blow the residual liquid remaining on the wall of the connecting hose of the freezing bag into the freezing bag to ensure the filling accuracy. After blowing and then exhausting, the air in the bag can be removed and the liquid level in the bag can be raised to a certain height to reach the sealing height of the connecting hose, so as to minimize the air in the bag after subsequent sealing; the sealing and shearing mechanism is used to seal the filled freezing bag and cut off the sealing part for unloading; the finished product unloading mechanism is used to unseal the sealed freezing bag The material is unloaded; the structure of the positioning fixture is not limited, as long as it can fix the cryobag and remove the cryobag; the waste box is used to collect the residual section of the connecting hose left in the positioning fixture after the waste in the positioning fixture is sheared, and the waste is removed from the positioning fixture by the material-retrieving robot; the operation mode of the material-retrieving robot can be set as needed so that it can move between various workstations; the position and number of the positioning fixture are adapted to the position and number of each workstation, so that each positioning fixture can correspond to different workstations to improve the utilization rate of each workstation.
[0006] Preferably, the feeding mechanism includes a vibrator and a feeding track. The feeding track is fixed on the vibrator. A linear track for hanging and arranging cryopreservation bags is provided on the feeding track. The openings at both ends of the linear track respectively form a feeding port and a discharging port. A baffle rod is provided on the front side of the discharging port, which can move forward or backward to block or open the discharging port. The linear track is relatively long, which can hang and cache more cryopreservation bags, reduce the frequency of replenishing materials, and lower the labor intensity. The vibrator is a conventional mechanism in the art, which is used to provide a vibration source. The cryopreservation bags placed in the linear track can move towards the discharging port under the action of the vibrator for feeding. The baffle rod is used to block the joints of the cryopreservation bags located at the discharging port, so that the cryopreservation bags will not fall from the discharging port, and at the same time play a positioning role, so that the manipulator can accurately and stably grasp.
[0007] Preferably, a liftable positioning jaw is provided above the discharging port. The positioning jaw can descend and clamp the joint of the cryopreservation bag located at the discharging port. An isolation plug board is fixed on the positioning jaw. When the isolation plug board descends, it is inserted between the joint of the cryopreservation bag located at the discharging port and the joint of the adjacent cryopreservation bag. A height limiting board is fixed above one side of the feeding track close to the discharging port. An avoidance hole for the isolation plug board is provided on the height limiting board. A guiding block is provided at the end of the feeding track located at the discharging port. A guiding groove is provided on the guiding block. The baffle rod is located in the guiding groove and is slidably matched with the guiding groove. Material level sensors are provided on the feeding tracks on both sides of the discharging port. The positioning jaw can adopt a conventional jaw that can open or close, such as a pneumatic jaw finger cylinder, etc. The positioning jaw is used to clamp and fix the joint of the cryopreservation bag located at the clamping position at the discharging port, and further position it, so that the picking manipulator can accurately grasp. The isolation plug board is used to separate the joint of the cryopreservation bag located at the discharging port and the joint of the adjacent cryopreservation bag, to prevent the joint of the subsequent cryopreservation bag from squeezing the joint of the cryopreservation bag located at the discharging port. The height limiting board is used to limit the height of the joint of the cryopreservation bag and level the joint, to correct the phenomenon that the top surface of the joint is uneven during the vibration process due to the relatively light quality of the cryopreservation bag, which is convenient for subsequent positioning. The material level sensor is used to detect whether there is a cryopreservation bag at the discharging port and transmit a signal to the control system, so as to control the linkage of structures such as the positioning jaw and the baffle rod through the control system. It is well-known to those skilled in the art to realize the lifting of the positioning jaw.
[0008] Preferably, the automatic feeding mechanism for the cryopreservation bag further includes a bag body flattening plate and a motion mechanism. The bag body flattening plate is arranged on the motion mechanism and has a flattening position and a disengaging position. When the bag body flattening plate is in the flattening position, it is located at the front lower side of the discharge port to flatten the body of the cryopreservation bag at the discharge port. When the bag body flattening plate is in the disengaging position, it is located at the front outer side of the discharge port to disengage from the body of the cryopreservation bag at the discharge port. The motion mechanism drives the bag body flattening plate to switch between the flattening position and the disengaging position. The bag body flattening plate is used to flatten and align the body of the cryopreservation bag at the discharge port, prevent the bag body from twisting and tilting, position and align the bag body, so that the body of the cryopreservation bag can be transferred to the next station while maintaining the same body position.
[0009] Preferably, the filling and weighing mechanism includes a filling machine and an electronic weighing module. The electronic weighing module is located on one side of the filling machine, and a hanging bag mold for hanging the cryopreservation bag is provided on the electronic weighing module. The filling machine is a conventional device in the art, including a liftable needle holder, a filling needle, a peristaltic pump, etc., and each component is connected by a hose.
[0010] Preferably, the air blowing and air pumping mechanism includes a lifting mechanism, a lifting plate, a connecting pipe, a blowing pipe and a pumping pipe. One end of the lifting plate is fixed on the lifting mechanism, and an air needle is fixed at the other end of the lifting plate. The connecting pipe is connected to the air needle, and the blowing pipe and the pumping pipe are connected to the connecting pipe through a three-way joint. A pipe clamping valve assembly for controlling the truncation or connection of the blowing pipe and the three-way joint and controlling the truncation or connection of the pumping pipe and the three-way joint is provided on the lifting plate. The lifting mechanism drives the air needle to move up and down to insert or withdraw from the joint of the cryopreservation bag. The structure of the lifting mechanism is not limited as long as the air needle can be lifted up and down. The blowing pipe is connected to a gas source, and the pumping pipe is connected to a vacuum system vacuum pump, etc. After the cryopreservation bag is transported below the air needle, the air needle descends and inserts into the joint of the cryopreservation bag. The pipe clamping valve assembly controls the truncation of the pumping pipe and the three-way joint, and the blowing pipe is connected to the three-way joint. The blowing pipe blows air into the cryopreservation bag through the three-way joint and the connecting pipe, so as to blow the residual liquid medicine on the inner wall of the connecting hose in the cryopreservation bag into the cryopreservation bag. After blowing, the pipe clamping valve controls the truncation of the blowing pipe and the three-way joint, and the pumping pipe is connected to the three-way joint. The pumping pipe evacuates the cryopreservation bag through the three-way joint and the connecting pipe to evacuate the air in the cryopreservation bag. After pumping, the air needle rises and withdraws from the joint of the cryopreservation bag.
[0011] Preferably, the pinch valve assembly includes a mounting block, a right cylinder, and a left cylinder. The mounting block is fixed on the lifting plate. An installation cavity is provided in the mounting block. The right cylinder and the left cylinder are relatively fixed in the installation cavity. A right movable clamping block is provided on the piston rod of the right cylinder, and a left movable clamping block is provided on the piston rod of the left cylinder. A right sliding hole and a left sliding hole are provided at the top of the installation cavity. The right movable clamping block is slidably matched with the right sliding hole, and the left movable clamping block is slidably matched with the left sliding hole. A fixed clamping block is fixed on the mounting block, and the fixed clamping block is located between the right movable clamping block and the left movable clamping block. The air blowing pipe passes through the gap between the fixed clamping block and the right movable clamping block, and the air extraction pipe passes through the gap between the fixed clamping block and the left movable clamping block. A pressing block is fixed on the top of the mounting block, and an avoidance hole for the air blowing pipe and the air extraction pipe to pass through is provided on the pressing block. The air blowing pipe is restricted in the gap between the fixed clamping block, the right movable clamping block, and the pressing block, and the air extraction pipe is restricted in the gap between the fixed clamping block, the left movable clamping block, and the pressing block. When the piston rod of the right cylinder retracts, the air blowing pipe communicates with the three-way joint. When the piston rod of the right cylinder extends, the right movable clamping block moves along the right sliding hole towards the fixed clamping block to clamp the air blowing pipe, so that the air blowing pipe is cut off from the three-way joint. Similarly, when the left cylinder retracts, the air extraction pipe communicates with the three-way joint, and when the piston rod of the left cylinder extends, the air extraction pipe is cut off from the three-way joint; through the cooperation between structures such as the right cylinder, the right movable clamping block, the left cylinder, and the left movable clamping block, the cut-off or connection of the air blowing pipe and the three-way joint and the cut-off or connection of the air extraction pipe and the three-way joint are controlled. The structure is simple, and the control is sensitive and convenient.
[0012] Preferably, the freezing bag air blowing and air extraction mechanism further includes a photoelectric sensor for detecting the liquid level height in the freezing bag, and the photoelectric sensor is arranged below the lifting plate. When the air extraction pipe evacuates the freezing bag, as the air in the bag is evacuated, the liquid level in the freezing bag will rise. When the liquid level rises to the position of the photoelectric sensor, the photoelectric sensor sends a signal to the control system, and the control system controls the air extraction pipe to be cut off from the three-way joint, so that the liquid level in the freezing bag can be maintained at a fixed position. In this way, not only can the liquid medicine be prevented from being evacuated, but also it can be ensured that there is only a very small amount of gas in the freezing bag during subsequent sealing; the installation height of the photoelectric sensor can be slightly lower than the sealing position of the connecting hose on the freezing bag.
[0013] Preferably, the sealing and shearing mechanism includes a translation mechanism, a heat sealing mechanism and a shearing mechanism. The heat sealing mechanism and the shearing mechanism are arranged side by side on the translation mechanism. The translation mechanism drives the heat sealing mechanism and the shearing mechanism to translate synchronously to switch the positions of the heat sealing mechanism and the shearing mechanism. Both the heat sealing mechanism and the shearing mechanism are conventional structures in the art. The heat sealing mechanism seals the connecting hose of the cryopreservation bag by means of high-frequency sealing; the translation mechanism drives the heat sealing mechanism and the shearing mechanism to switch positions. After the heat sealing mechanism seals the connecting hose of the cryopreservation bag, the translation mechanism drives the heat sealing mechanism and the shearing mechanism to move together, so that the shearing mechanism moves to the heat sealing position to shear the sealed position of the connecting hose of the cryopreservation bag. After the shearing mechanism cuts off the connecting hose of the cryopreservation bag, the translation mechanism drives the heat sealing mechanism and the shearing mechanism to move together, so that the heat sealing mechanism resets to the heat sealing position.
[0014] Preferably, the finished product discharging mechanism includes clamping plates, a vacuum adsorption component capable of rotating, and a material guiding groove. The clamping plates and the adsorption plates are arranged opposite to each other and can approach or move away from each other. The material guiding groove is arranged below the vacuum adsorption component. The clamping plates and the vacuum adsorption component approach each other to hold the cryopreservation bag tightly. At the same time, the vacuum adsorption component sucks the cryopreservation bag, so that the cryopreservation bag can be sealed and sheared. After the cryopreservation bag is sheared, the clamping plates and the vacuum adsorption component move away from each other to release the cryopreservation bag. After the vacuum adsorption component sucks the cryopreservation bag and rotates a certain angle, the vacuum adsorption component closes the vacuum and puts the cryopreservation bag into the material guiding groove.
[0015] Therefore, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] (1) Each mechanism is arranged along the rotation direction of the turntable that can intermittently index and step-rotate. The overall mechanism is compact and occupies a small area;
[0017] (2) The positioning fixture is driven by the turntable that can intermittently index and step-rotate, so that each mechanism can work simultaneously, which can improve the utilization rate of each mechanism and improve the production efficiency at the same time. Description of the Drawings

[0046] The operation process of the present invention is as follows: The material-taking manipulator transfers the frozen storage bag 97 in the feeding mechanism to the positioning fixture at the loading station on the turntable; the frozen storage bag at the loading station is transferred to the capping station along with the turntable, and the capping mechanism unscrews the joint isolation cap on the frozen storage bag and places it in the joint isolation cap collection box; the frozen storage bag at the capping station is transferred to the leak detection station along with the turntable, and the leak detection mechanism inflates the frozen storage bag, stabilizes the pressure after inflation, and detects through the controller. If the detection is qualified, subsequent filling is carried out. If the detection is unqualified, it is removed by the subsequent finished product blanking mechanism; the frozen storage bag at the leak detection station is transferred to the filling and weighing station, and the material-taking manipulator transfers the qualified frozen storage bag to the hanging bag mold of the previous electronic weighing module for weighing before the first filling. After weighing, the material-taking manipulator transfers the frozen storage bag back to the positioning fixture, and the previous filling machine performs the first filling. After the first filling, the frozen storage bag is transferred to the subsequent filling machine along with the turntable, and the subsequent filling machine performs the second filling. After the second filling, the material-taking manipulator transfers the frozen storage bag to the hanging bag mold of the subsequent electronic weighing module for weighing after the second filling. After weighing, the material-taking manipulator transfers the frozen storage bag back to the positioning fixture; the frozen storage bag at the filling and weighing station is transferred to the air blowing and air extraction station along with the turntable, and the air blowing and air extraction mechanism blows air and extracts air from the frozen storage bag to raise the liquid level of the liquid medicine in the frozen storage bag to a certain height; the frozen storage bag in the air blowing and air extraction mechanism is transferred to the sealing and shearing station along with the turntable. After the clamping plate and the vacuum adsorption component in the finished product blanking mechanism move relatively close to tightly hold the frozen storage bag, the heat sealing mechanism seals the connecting hose of the frozen storage bag. After sealing, the heat sealing mechanism releases the frozen storage bag. The heat sealing mechanism and the shearing mechanism translate under the drive of the translation mechanism, so that the shearing mechanism moves to the sealing position of the heat sealing mechanism and cuts the connecting hose along the sealing position. The heat sealing mechanism and the shearing mechanism translate under the drive of the translation mechanism, and the heat sealing mechanism resets to the heat sealing position again. The clamping plate and the vacuum adsorption component move away from each other. The vacuum adsorption component sucks the frozen storage bag down and rotates a certain angle to release the frozen storage bag so that it slides down along the guide groove into the finished product collection box (not shown in the figure); the positioning fixture clamping the residual section of the waste connecting hose at the sealing and shearing station is transferred to the waste blanking station along with the turntable, and the material-taking manipulator takes out the waste and transfers it to the waste box. After the waste is taken away, the positioning fixture moves to the loading station along with the turntable for loading.
