Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of medical technology, specifically to a pneumatic transfer bottle. Background Technology

[0002] As biological sample testing becomes an increasingly important medical reference, hospitals are gradually facing problems such as sample testing efficiency and transportation. The emergence of pneumatic transport systems has effectively solved these problems, especially the automated medical testing technology born from the combination of pneumatic transport systems and biochemical and immunological automated lines, which has brought about a great transformation in the medical field.

[0003] Currently, although pneumatic transfer systems can transport pneumatic transfer bottles to the laboratory, the test tube samples transported in the bottles still need to be inspected, opened, centrifuged, and shelved by medical staff. In order to improve testing efficiency and free medical staff from tedious and repetitive labor, it is considered to use robots to replace this process. However, the robotic arms installed on robots are far less flexible than human hands and cannot achieve the rapid opening and closing of pneumatic transfer bottles with a single robotic arm.

[0022] The end of the limiting post away from the second elastic element extends out of the limiting groove and is used to engage with the card interface to limit the two cover plates respectively.

[0024] According to the technical solution provided in the embodiments of this application, a connecting shaft is installed on the side wall of the bottle mouth, and the cover plate is rotatably installed on the connecting shaft;

[0025] A torsion spring is sleeved on the connecting shaft. One end of the torsion spring is engaged with the container bottle, and the other end is engaged with the cover plate. When the transmission assembly is separated from the cover plate, the torsion spring drives the cover plate to rotate, so that the container space is in an open state.

[0026] According to the technical solution provided in the embodiments of this application, a bearing platform is provided on the side of the support platform away from the cover plate, and a receiving space is formed in the bearing platform for the connecting block to move along the first direction.

[0045] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this application, the application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The description in this section is only exemplary and explanatory, and should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this application in any way.

[0046] A container bottle 1 has a receiving space, and a support platform 2 is provided on the edge of the container bottle 1;

[0047] An end cap, which is rotatably mounted on the container bottle 1, is used to open or close the container space;

[0048] A transmission assembly is mounted on the support platform 2, and the transmission assembly has a first state and a second state.

[0049] When in the first state, the transmission assembly is used to limit the end cap when the end cap closes the receiving space, fixing the relative position of the end cap and the receiving bottle 1; when in the second state, the transmission assembly separates from the end cap, releasing the limitation between the end cap and the receiving bottle 1.

[0050] A drive component is mounted on the support platform 2 and is used to drive the transmission component to switch from the first state to the second state under the action of external force.

[0051] Specifically, in this embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, this application embodiment provides a pneumatic transfer bottle, which includes a receiving bottle 1 with a receiving space formed inside. A support platform 2 is provided on the edge of the receiving bottle 1, and an end cap is also provided on the receiving bottle 1. The end cap is rotatable relative to the receiving bottle 1 and is used to open or close the receiving space. A transmission assembly is provided on the support platform 2, and the transmission assembly has a first state and a second state. When the transmission assembly is in the first state, it is used to limit the end cap when the end cap closes the receiving space, preventing the end cap from opening automatically. The system can fix the relative position between the end cap and the container bottle 1. When in the second state, the transmission component is separated from the end cap. Because the end cap is no longer restricted by the transmission component, the end cap can rotate relative to the container bottle 1, thereby opening the container bottle 1 and opening the container space. The system also includes a drive component provided on the support platform 2. When the drive component is subjected to external force, the drive component can drive the transmission component to switch from the first state to the second state. An airtight ring is provided on the outer periphery of the end cap and the container bottle 1. The airtight ring can be a magic ring.

[0052] During use, the robotic arm grasps the bottle and applies external force to the drive assembly. When the drive assembly is subjected to external force, it drives the transmission assembly to switch from the first state to the second state, thereby releasing the restriction of the end cap by the transmission assembly. At this time, the end cap can rotate relative to the container bottle 1, thereby switching the container space from a closed state to an open state. At this time, the items inside the container space can be taken out from the opening of the container bottle 1. With the structure described in this application, it is possible to open the container bottle 1 with a robotic arm and let the items inside the container bottle 1 fall out. Compared with the prior art, this increases the convenience of opening the container bottle 1 and improves the efficiency of work.

[0053] Furthermore, the driving component includes:

[0054] The first elastic unit is disposed on the support platform 2;

[0055] A pressing platform 4 is located at the end of the first elastic unit away from the support platform 2 and can move along a first direction;

[0056] Connecting block 5, the connecting block 5 is located on the side of the pressing platform 4 that is relatively close to the support platform 2, and the connecting block 5 is connected to the transmission assembly by a pull wire;

[0057] The receiving through hole 6 is provided on the support platform 2 and extends along the first direction. Under the action of the pressing platform 4, the connecting block 5 can enter the receiving through hole 6, and at the same time, the transmission component is switched from the first state to the second state by the pull wire.

[0058] Furthermore, an auxiliary support platform 22 is provided on the support platform 2. The support platform 2 and the auxiliary support platform 22 together form a support space. The transmission component and the drive component are both located in the support space. A push hole is provided on the auxiliary support platform 22. By applying external force to the drive component through the push hole, the drive component can drive the transmission component to switch from the first state to the second state.

[0059] Specifically, in this embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the driving component includes: a first elastic unit disposed on the support platform 2; a connecting block 5 disposed at one end of the first elastic unit away from the support platform 2; the connecting block 5 being connected to the transmission component; and a receiving through hole 6 disposed on the support platform 2. The receiving through hole 6 is square and extends along a first direction, allowing the connecting block 5 to enter the receiving through hole 6. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, an auxiliary support platform 22 is also installed on the support platform 2, and a support space is formed between the auxiliary support platform 22 and the support platform 2. The transmission component and the drive component are both located in the support space. The pressing platform 4 of the drive component is located in the support space. The auxiliary support platform 22 is also provided with a pressing hole. Through the pressing hole, an external force can be applied to the drive component, thereby causing the drive component to drive the transmission component to switch from the first state to the second state. Specifically, pressing the pressing platform 4 through the pressing hole can cause the transmission component to switch from the first state to the second state. The auxiliary support platform 22 is fixedly connected to the support platform 2, which can effectively protect the various components located in the support space.

[0060] In use, the pressing platform 4 is pressed downwards along the first direction through the pressing hole. Under the action of the pressing platform 4, the first elastic unit will undergo a corresponding state change, causing the pressing platform 4 to move downwards. During the downward movement of the pressing platform 4, the connecting block 5 below the pressing platform 4 will enter the receiving through hole 6. Because the connecting block 5 is connected to the transmission assembly, the transmission assembly will gradually move towards the receiving through hole 6 under the drive of the connecting block 5. Thus, the transmission component no longer limits the end cap. Because the end cap is no longer restricted by the transmission component, it rotates relative to the container bottle 1, causing the container space to be in an open state. When the pressing platform 4 loses external force, the first elastic unit will return to its original state because it loses the force from the pressing platform 4, thereby driving the pressing platform 4 back to its initial position. The connecting block 5 will also move away from the container through hole 6 along with the pressing platform 4. Simultaneously, the transmission component will also move away from the container through hole 6, and the transmission component will return to its original position again.

[0061] The drive component also includes a pull wire, such as Figure 13 As shown, one end of the pull wire is fixedly connected to the connecting block 5, and the other end of the pull wire is connected to the transmission component. When the position of the pressing platform 4 changes, the pull wire will drive the position of the transmission component to change, switching from the first state to the second state, so as to release the restriction on the end cover.

[0062] Furthermore, the first elastic unit includes:

[0063] Mounting column 7 is disposed on the support platform 2 and extends along the first direction. A first elastic element 8 is sleeved on the mounting column 7. The pressing platform 4 movably passes through the mounting column 7 and is connected to the end of the first elastic element 8 that is relatively away from the support platform 2.

[0064] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first elastic unit includes: a mounting column 7 disposed on the support platform 2, the mounting column 7 extending along the first direction, which is a vertical direction in this embodiment; a first elastic element 8 sleeved on the mounting column 7, the first elastic element 8 extending and retracting along the first direction, the first elastic element 8 being located within the auxiliary space; and a through hole 801 provided on the pressing platform 4, the pressing platform 4 being movably mounted on the mounting column 7 through the through hole 801.

[0065] When in use, when the pressing platform 4 is pressed down along the first direction, the first elastic element 8 will contract under the action of the pressing platform 4. After the pressing platform 4 loses external force, the pressing platform 4 and the connecting block 5 return to their initial positions under the reaction force of the first elastic element 8. There are two first elastic units, which are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the receiving through hole 6.

[0066] Furthermore, a limiting part 9 is provided at the end of the mounting column 7 away from the support platform 2, the limiting part 9 being used to prevent the pressing platform 4 from separating from the mounting column 7.

[0067] Specifically, in this embodiment, a limiting part 9 is provided at the end of the mounting column 7 away from the support platform 2. The diameter of the limiting part 9 is larger than the diameter of the mounting column 7 and the through hole 801, which can ensure that the pressing platform 4 will not detach from the mounting column 7 after the external force is lost.

[0068] Furthermore, the end cap includes two mating cover plates 3, and a snap-fit ​​interface 10 is provided at the edge of the cover plate 3; the transmission assembly includes:

[0069] At least two limiting grooves 11 are fixedly disposed on the support platform 2;

[0070] A limiting post 12 is movably disposed within the limiting groove 11;

[0071] The second elastic element 13 is disposed in the limiting groove 11, one end of which abuts against the inner side wall of the limiting groove 11, and the other end is connected to the limiting post 12; the end of the pull wire away from the connecting block 5 is connected to the limiting post 12.

[0072] The end of the limiting post 12 away from the second elastic member 13 extends out of the limiting groove 11 and is used to abut against the card interface 10 to limit the two cover plates 3 respectively.

[0073] Specifically, in this embodiment, the end cap includes two cooperating cover plates 3, and a snap-fit ​​interface 10 is provided at the edge of the cover plate 3;

[0074] The transmission assembly includes: two limiting grooves 11 disposed on the support platform 2, both limiting grooves 11 being square; a limiting post 12 disposed within each limiting groove 11; and limiting through holes at both ends of each limiting groove 11, through which the limiting post 12 can movably pass through the limiting groove 11; a second elastic element 13 disposed within each limiting groove 11, the second elastic element 13 extending and retracting along the extending direction of the limiting groove 11; the second elastic element 13 being sleeved on the outside of the limiting post 12; one end of the second elastic element 13 being connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove 11; and the other end of the second elastic element 13 being connected to the limiting post 12. Figure 13 As shown in the diagram, one end of the pull wire away from the connecting block 5 is connected to the limiting post 12. The end of the limiting post 12 away from the second elastic member 13 extends from the limiting through hole into the limiting groove 11 and engages with the locking interface 10, thereby limiting the positions of the two cover plates 3 respectively. A pull wire through hole 501 is provided on the connecting block 5, through which the pull wire passes, and both ends of the pull wire are connected to the two limiting posts 12 in the two limiting grooves 11 respectively.

[0075] When the pressing platform 4 is subjected to external force and moves downward along the first direction, the connecting block 5 will also move downward synchronously. The pull wire inside the pull wire hole 501 will also move downward under the action of the connecting block 5. Since the pull wire is always in a taut state, the pull wire will drive the two limiting posts 12 to slide towards the receiving through hole 6. During the sliding of the limiting post 12, the second elastic member 13 will become retracted until the end of the limiting post 12 away from the second elastic member 13 moves into the limiting groove 11. At this point, the limiting post 12 releases the limiting of the cover plate 3, and the cover plate 3 can open automatically.

[0076] Furthermore, the limiting post 12 is also provided with a limiting protrusion, which is used to abut against the second elastic member 13. The end of the limiting protrusion that is relatively far away from the second elastic member 13 and the side that is close to the cover plate 3 has an arc-shaped abutment surface. The arc-shaped abutment surface is used to allow the limiting protrusion to extend into the card interface 10 and engage with the card interface 10.

[0077] Specifically, in this embodiment, such as Figure 4As shown, the limiting post 12 includes a first part 123 and a second part 124. The second elastic member 13 is sleeved on the first part 123. The second part 124 forms the limiting protrusion. The second part 124, i.e. the limiting protrusion 14, abuts against the second elastic member 13 and is used to drive the second elastic member 13 to switch between the extended state and the contracted state.

[0078] The limiting post 12 has an arc-shaped abutment surface at one end that is relatively far from the second elastic member 13 and on the side that is close to the cover plate 3, which facilitates the limiting post 12 to smoothly engage or disengage from the card interface 10.

[0079] Furthermore, a connecting shaft 15 is installed on the side wall of the bottle mouth of the container 1, and the cover plate 3 is rotatably installed on the connecting shaft 15;

[0080] A torsion spring 16 is sleeved on the connecting shaft 15. One end of the torsion spring 16 is engaged with the container bottle 1, and the other end is engaged with the cover plate 3. When the transmission component is separated from the cover plate 3, the torsion spring 16 drives the cover plate 3 to rotate so that the container space is in an open state.

[0081] Specifically, in this embodiment, a connecting shaft 15 is installed on the side wall of the bottle mouth of the container 1. The cover plate 3 is rotatably mounted on the container 1 via the connecting shaft 15. A torsion spring 16 is sleeved on the connecting shaft 15. One end of the torsion spring 16 is engaged with the container 1, and the other end is engaged with the cover plate 3. When the transmission component releases the limiting effect on the cover plate 3, the cover plate 3 rotates under the action of the torsion spring 16, thereby opening the container space.

[0082] Furthermore, on the side of the support platform 2 away from the cover plate 3, there is a bearing platform 17, and the bearing platform 17 has a accommodating space for the connecting block 5 to move along the first direction.

[0083] Specifically, in this embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, a bearing platform 17 is provided on the side of the support platform 2 away from the cover plate 3. The bearing platform 17 has a conical shape, and a receiving space is formed inside the bearing platform 17 for the connecting block 5 to move along the first direction.

[0084] Furthermore, the pneumatic transmission bottle also includes an auxiliary switching device disposed on one side of the pneumatic transmission bottle and used in conjunction with the pneumatic transmission bottle. The auxiliary switching device includes a support frame, and an auxiliary support column 20 extending along a first direction is provided in the support frame. The diameter of the auxiliary support column 20 is smaller than the push hole. By moving the relative positional relationship between the receiving bottle 1 and the auxiliary switching device, the auxiliary support column 20 contacts the driving component through the push hole and applies a force to the transmission component through the auxiliary support column 20.

[0085] Specifically, in this embodiment, the pneumatic transfer bottle further includes an auxiliary switching device for use. The auxiliary switching device includes a support frame, which includes two parallel support plates 18. A connecting plate 19 is also provided inside the two support plates 18. An auxiliary support column 20 is provided between the connecting plate 19 and the support plates 18. The auxiliary support column 20 extends along the first direction. A limiting ring 21 is provided at the other end of the support plate 18. The limiting ring 21 is used to apply force to the cover plate 3 when the pneumatic transfer bottle is taken out, so that the cover plate 3 is closed. In use, the robotic arm grasps the body of the receiving bottle 1. The receiving bottle 1 has a first end and a second end. The first end and the second end are connected by a connecting ring 21. The bottle is equipped with a cover plate 3 at both ends. Because the process of the robotic arm grasping the bottle body 1 is random, it is possible that the first end cooperates with the auxiliary switch device to open the container space, or it is possible that the second end cooperates with the auxiliary switch device to open the container space. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a cover plate 3 at both ends of the container bottle 1. In use, the pressing platform 4 is inserted into the limiting ring 21 and the pressing platform 4 is made to contact the auxiliary support column 20. The bottle body is pressed down, thereby releasing the limiting component from limiting the cover plate 3, so that the container space is open and the item in the container space falls out from the opening.

[0086] Working principle: such as Figures 8 to 12As shown, during use, the robotic arm grasps the body of the container bottle 1 and extends the cover plate 3 into the limiting ring 21 along direction a, so that the pressing platform 4 contacts the auxiliary support column 20 and presses down on the container bottle 1. Under the action of the auxiliary support column 20, the pressing platform 4 will move along the first direction. Under the action of the pressing platform 4, the connecting block 5 will extend into the receiving through hole 6, thereby driving the pull line to move together. The pull line drives the limiting column 12 to move, and one end of the limiting column 12 gradually extends into the limiting groove 11. When one end of the limiting column 12... After being fully inserted into the limiting groove 11, the limiting of the cover plate 3 is released. Without the restriction of the limiting post 12, the cover plate 3 will rotate relative to the container bottle 1 under the action of the torsion spring 16, thereby switching the container space from a closed state to an open state. The items inside the container space can fall out from the opening of the container bottle 1. Then the robotic arm grabs the container bottle 1 and moves it along the b direction to make it disengage from the auxiliary switch device. During the disengagement process, the cover plate 3 abuts against the limiting ring 21. Under the action of the limiting ring 21, the cover plate 3 closes the container space.

[0087] Meanwhile, a sealing ring is provided on the outside of the receiving bottle 1. The pneumatic transfer bottle is transported through a pipeline. During the actual transport, the pipeline needs to be evacuated to create a negative pressure inside the pipeline, thereby pushing the pneumatic transfer bottle forward. In order to ensure that the pneumatic transfer bottle can be transported normally in the pipeline, a sealing ring needs to be fitted on the outside of the receiving bottle 1. The outer ring of the sealing ring forms a sealing space with the inner wall of the pipeline, thereby promoting the transport of the pneumatic transfer bottle in the pipeline.

[0088] The device described in this application can open the cover plate 3 in a timely manner, thereby quickly removing the items inside the containing space. This can be achieved with a single robotic arm, which increases the opening speed and work efficiency compared with the prior art.
