Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of medical device manufacturing technology, specifically a compressor for producing medical gauze-wrapped cotton pad dressings. Background Technology

[0002] Medical gauze-wrapped cotton pad dressings are one of the commonly used medical supplies. In the traditional production method of medical gauze-wrapped cotton pad dressings, compression and packaging are often carried out manually or with simple machinery.

[0003] The existing compressors for medical gauze-wrapped cotton pads still have drawbacks. When the existing compressors discharge the compressed gauze-wrapped cotton through a chute, workers then manually wrap the gauze-wrapped cotton. However, the gauze-wrapped cotton that slides out of the chute cannot be placed flat, resulting in various shapes of the gauze-wrapped cotton, which can easily affect the subsequent rapid packaging by workers. Therefore, improvements are needed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the problem mentioned in the background art of the inability to quickly package compressed gauze-wrapped cotton, the present invention provides a compressor for producing medical gauze-wrapped cotton pad dressings.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a compressor for producing medical gauze-wrapped cotton pad dressings, comprising an outer casing, a first cylinder disposed on the top of the outer casing, a pressure block fixedly connected to the side of the first cylinder near the outer casing, a pressure groove disposed at the bottom of the pressure block, a discharge ramp disposed inside the outer casing, a cam fixedly connected to the bottom of the discharge ramp, a third motor disposed at the bottom of the inner casing, a circular protrusion rotatably connected to the output shaft end of the third motor, a spring fixedly connected to the top of the discharge ramp, a discharge chute opening on one side of the outer casing, a discharge platform fixedly connected to the side of the outer casing near the discharge chute opening, a conveyor belt disposed on the top of the discharge platform, a movable plate movably connected to the top of the conveyor belt, a connecting rod rotatably connected to one side of the movable plate, a sliding plate fixedly connected to the side of the connecting rod away from the movable plate, a centering plate fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding plate, a third cylinder movably connected to one side of the conveyor belt, and a push rod rotatably connected to one side of the third cylinder.

[0006] Preferably, the pressure block slides via a slide bar, and a first push rod is provided on one side of the pressure groove.

[0007] Preferably, a first motor is provided at the top inside the outer casing, and a first gear is rotatably connected to the output shaft end of the first motor. The first gear meshes with a turntable, and a slotted bottom plate is provided at the bottom of the turntable.

[0008] Preferably, an adapter plate is provided at the bottom of the card slot base plate, a second push rod is fixedly connected to the side of the adapter plate near the card slot base plate, a second motor is fixedly connected to the top of the adapter plate, and a second gear is rotatably connected to the output shaft end of the second motor.

[0009] Preferably, the second gear meshes with a half gear, and the half gear is fixedly connected to the bottom plate of the slot.

[0010] Preferably, the side of the spring away from the discharge ramp is fixedly connected to the inside of the outer box, and the discharge ramp is movably connected inside the outer box.

[0011] Preferably, the number of the aligning plates is set to two, and a second cylinder is fixedly connected to one side of the aligning plate.

[0012] Preferably, a flat conveyor belt is movably connected to the side of the conveyor belt near the second cylinder, and an outer cover is fixedly connected to the top of the discharge platform.

[0013] Preferably, a rack is fixedly connected to the center of the turntable, and the rack meshes with the first gear.

[0014] Preferably, the upper surfaces of the card slot base plate and the adapter plate are provided with holes, and a bottom block adapted to the pressure groove is fixedly connected to the top of the card slot base plate.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0016] This invention facilitates rapid material discharge through the coordinated use of a third motor, a cam, a circular protrusion, and a discharge ramp, preventing the compressed gauze from getting stuck inside the outer box. By activating the third motor, it drives the circular protrusion to rotate. Simultaneously, the rotation of the circular protrusion causes the cam to vibrate up and down, which in turn drives the discharge ramp to discharge the compressed gauze through the discharge chute. This prevents the compressed gauze from falling or getting stuck inside the outer box, thus achieving rapid material discharge through vibration.

[0017] This invention, through the coordinated arrangement of connecting rods, a straightening plate, a third cylinder, and a push rod, facilitates the straightening and unloading of compressed gauze, enabling better subsequent packaging. The connecting rods on both sides rotate via a movable plate, causing the straightening plate to straighten the compressed gauze. The third cylinder then pushes the push rod, which in turn propels the straightened gauze onto a flat conveyor belt. This allows workers to quickly package the compressed gauze, a much faster and more convenient method compared to the traditional method of stacking and transporting compressed gauze for packaging. This achieves the goal of facilitating rapid packaging by straightening the gauze. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, the present invention provides a compressor for producing medical gauze-wrapped cotton pad dressings, including an outer casing 1. A first cylinder 2 is disposed on the top of the outer casing 1. A pressure block 3 is fixedly connected to the side of the first cylinder 2 near the outer casing 1. A pressure groove 5 is disposed at the bottom of the pressure block 3. A discharge ramp 19 is disposed inside the outer casing 1. A cam 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the discharge ramp 19. A third motor 16 is disposed at the bottom inside the outer casing 1. A circular protrusion 17 is rotatably connected to the output shaft end of the third motor 16. A spring 20 is fixedly connected to the top of the discharge ramp 19. A discharge chute 21 is provided on one side of the outer casing 1. A discharge platform 22 is fixedly connected to the side of the outer casing 1 near the discharge chute 21. A conveyor belt 24 is provided on the top of the discharge platform 22. A movable plate 25 is movably connected to the top of the conveyor belt 24. A connecting rod 26 is rotatably connected to one side of the movable plate 25. A sliding plate 27 is fixedly connected to the side of the connecting rod 26 away from the movable plate 25. A straightening plate 28 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding plate 27. A third cylinder 30 is movably connected to one side of the conveyor belt 24. A push rod 31 is rotatably connected to one side of the third cylinder 30.

[0028] By activating the first cylinder 2, the pressure block 3 moves downward. The pressure groove 5 at the bottom of the pressure block 3 compresses the medical gauze-wrapped cotton pad dressing placed inside the outer casing 1. By precisely controlling the pressure of the first cylinder 2, the dressing can be compressed to the required degree. The third motor 16 at the bottom of the outer casing 1 operates, and the circular protrusion 17 at the output shaft end rotates. When the circular protrusion 17 rotates, it periodically contacts the cam 18, pushing the cam 18 to rotate. The rotation of the cam 18 drives the discharge ramp 19 to move up and down. A spring 20 is fixedly connected to the top of the discharge ramp 19. When the cam 18 pushes the discharge ramp 19 upward, the spring 20 is stretched; when the cam 18 separates from the discharge ramp 19, the spring 20 contracts, helping the discharge ramp 19 to return to its original position. In this way, the discharge ramp 19 achieves reciprocating up and down movement under the combined action of the cam 18 and the spring 20. The dressing slides down the discharge ramp 19. Under the action of the up and down movement of the discharge ramp 19, the compressed dressing gradually moves towards the discharge chute 21. Due to the tilt angle of the discharge ramp 19, the dressing slides out of the outer box 1 along the ramp. The dressing that slides out of the discharge chute 21 falls onto the conveyor belt 24 on the discharge table 22. The conveyor belt 24 starts to run, driving the movable plate 25 connected to the top to move. The connecting rod 26 connected to one side of the movable plate 25 drives the sliding plate 27 to move. The straightening plate 28 at the bottom of the sliding plate 27 moves with the movement of the sliding plate 27, straightening and tidying the dressing on the conveyor belt 24 to ensure that the dressing is in a neat position during the conveying process. When the dressing is conveyed to a specific position, the third cylinder 30 is activated. The push rod 31 connected to one side of the third cylinder 30 is pushed forward to push the dressing out of the conveyor belt 24 for subsequent packaging.

[0029] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the pressure block 3 slides via the slide rod 4. A first push rod 6 is provided on one side of the pressure groove 5. A first motor 7 is provided at the top inside the outer casing 1. A first gear 8 is rotatably connected to the output shaft end of the first motor 7. The first gear 8 meshes with a turntable 9. A slot base plate 10 is provided at the bottom of the turntable 9. An adapter plate 11 is provided at the bottom of the slot base plate 10. A second push rod 15 is fixedly connected to the side of the adapter plate 11 near the slot base plate 10. A second motor 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the adapter plate 11. A second gear 13 is rotatably connected to the output shaft end of the second motor 12.

[0030] The above scheme is adopted: the pressure block 3 slides along the slide rod 4 to ensure that the pressure block 3 can move stably up and down in the vertical direction. When it is necessary to compress the medical gauze-wrapped cotton pad dressing, the pressure block 3 slides down along the slide rod 4 under the push of the first cylinder 2. The first push rod 6 on one side of the pressure groove 5 can act as a stop for the pressure groove 5 when compressing the gauze. The first motor 7 at the top of the outer box 1 starts, and the first gear 8 connected to its output shaft rotates accordingly. The first gear 8 meshes with the turntable 9, driving the turntable 9 to rotate. The rotation of the turntable 9 allows the pressure groove 5 to rotate as a whole, making it easier for workers to place the gauze into the pressure groove 5 for compression. The slot bottom plate 10 at the bottom of the turntable 9 can press the pressure groove 5. The card slot base plate 10 is fixedly connected to a bottom block that matches the pressure groove 5. When the card slot base plate 10 rotates to a specific position, it matches the bottom of the pressure groove 5. When the card slot base plate 10 rotates to other positions, it separates from the bottom of the pressure groove 5, allowing the compressed gauze to fall off. A second push rod 15 is fixedly connected to the side of the adapter plate 11 near the card slot base plate 10. The second push rod 15 can push the card slot base plate 10 upward when needed, or play an auxiliary separation role when the card slot base plate 10 separates from the pressure groove 5. When the second motor 12 at the top of the adapter plate 11 is running, the second gear 13 rotatably connected to its output shaft begins to rotate. The rotation of the second gear 13 may be used to drive other components to rotate.

[0031] like Figure 4 , Figure 7 As shown, the second gear 13 meshes with the half gear 14, the half gear 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 10 of the slot, the side of the spring 20 away from the discharge inclined plate 19 is fixedly connected to the inside of the outer box 1, the discharge inclined plate 19 is movably connected inside the outer box 1, the number of the straightening plate 28 is set to two, and the second cylinder 29 is fixedly connected to one side of the straightening plate 28.

[0032] The above scheme is adopted: the second motor 12 drives the second gear 13 to rotate, the second gear 13 meshes with the half gear 14. When the second gear 13 rotates, it drives the half gear 14 to move. Since the half gear 14 is fixedly connected to the slot bottom plate 10, the movement of the half gear 14 can control the synchronous movement of the slot bottom plate 10. The discharge inclined plate is movably connected inside the outer box and can move to a certain extent. When the cam rotates under the drive of the third motor, it periodically contacts the discharge sloping plate, pushing the discharge sloping plate to move. One side of the spring 20 is fixedly connected to the discharge sloping plate 19, and the other side is fixedly connected to the inside of the outer box 1. When the cam 18 pushes the discharge sloping plate 19 to move, the spring 20 is stretched or compressed. When the cam 18 separates from the discharge sloping plate 19, the elastic force of the spring 20 will cause the discharge sloping plate 19 to reset. The number of straightening plates 28 is set to two. Their function is to straighten and arrange the dressing on the conveyor belt 24 to ensure that the dressing is in a neat position during the conveying process, which is convenient for subsequent packaging. A second cylinder 29 is fixedly connected to one side of the straightening plate 28. The second cylinder 29 can control the movement of the straightening plate 28. When it is necessary to straighten the dressing, the second cylinder 29 pushes the straightening plate 28 to move towards the conveyor belt 24 to straighten the dressing. When it is not necessary to straighten the dressing, the second cylinder 29 can retract the straightening plate 28 to avoid interfering with the normal operation of the conveyor belt 24.

[0033] like Figure 4 , Figure 6 As shown, a flat conveyor belt 32 is movably connected to the side of the conveyor belt 24 near the second cylinder 29. An outer cover 23 is fixedly connected to the top of the discharge table 22. A rack is fixedly connected to the middle of the turntable 9. The rack meshes with the first gear 8. Holes are opened on the upper surfaces of the slot bottom plate 10 and the adapter plate 11. A bottom block that matches the pressure groove 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the slot bottom plate 10.

[0034] The above scheme employs a conveyor belt 24 to transport the dressing that slides down from the discharge ramp 19. Once the dressing lands on the conveyor belt 24, the belt rotates, moving the dressing in a specific direction. A leveling conveyor belt 32 is movably connected to the side of the conveyor belt 24 closest to the second cylinder 29. The leveling conveyor belt 32 facilitates the packaging of the straightened gauze by the operator. An outer cover 23 is fixedly connected to the top of the discharge platform 22. The outer cover 23 primarily serves a protective function, preventing external dust and impurities from entering the conveyor belt 24 area, thus maintaining the cleanliness of the dressing. Simultaneously, the outer cover 23 also prevents operators from accidentally coming into contact with the dressing during equipment operation. Moving parts enhance equipment safety. A rack is fixedly connected to the center of the turntable 9, and the rack meshes with the first gear 8 rotatably connected to the output shaft of the first motor 7. When the first motor 7 starts, the first gear 8 rotates, driving the turntable 9 to rotate through the rack, thereby realizing the position adjustment and transfer operation of the pressure groove 5. Holes are opened on the upper surfaces of the card slot bottom plate 10 and the adapter plate 11. These holes facilitate the dropping of the compressed gauze onto the discharge inclined plate 19. A bottom block that matches the pressure groove 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the card slot bottom plate 10. When the pressure block 3 moves downward to compress, the pressure groove 5 and the bottom block cooperate with each other to ensure that the dressing can be compressed evenly.

[0035] Working principle and usage process of this invention:

[0036] First, workers place the gauze to be compressed into the compression groove 5. The first cylinder 2 drives the compression block 3, causing it to slide downwards via the slide rod 4, compressing and shaping the gauze inside the compression groove 5. The compressed gauze falls through the holes in the adapter plate 11 onto the discharge inclined plate 19, and then slides onto the conveyor belt 24 through the discharge chute 21. The third motor 16 at the bottom of the outer casing 1 drives the circular protrusion 17 to rotate. When the circular protrusion 17 rotates, it drives the cam 18 to rotate, and the rotation of the cam 18 drives the discharge inclined plate... Plate 19 moves up and down. A spring 20 is fixedly connected to the top of the discharge inclined plate 19. Thus, under the combined action of the cam 18 and the spring 20, the discharge inclined plate 19 reciprocates up and down, allowing the compressed gauze to slide out through the discharge chute 21 more effectively, preventing it from getting stuck inside the outer box 1. The gauze falls onto the conveyor belt 24 on the discharge table 22. The conveyor belt 24 starts to rotate, driving the movable plate 25 connected to the top to move. The connecting rod 26, which rotates on one side of the movable plate 25, drives the sliding plate 27 to move. The straightening plate 28 at the bottom of the sliding plate 27 moves with the movement of the sliding plate 27. Two straightening plates 28 are provided, and their function is to straighten and arrange the dressings on the conveyor belt 24, ensuring that the dressings are neatly positioned during transport for easy subsequent packaging. A second cylinder 29 is fixedly connected to one side of the straightening plate 28. The second cylinder 29 controls the movement of the straightening plate 28. When straightening is required, the second cylinder 29 pushes the straightening plate 28 towards the conveyor belt 24 to straighten the dressings. When straightening is not required... During operation, the second cylinder 29 can retract the straightening plate 28 to avoid interfering with the normal operation of the conveyor belt 24, and straighten and tidy the dressing on the conveyor belt 24 to ensure that the dressing is in a neat position during the conveying process. When the dressing is conveyed to a specific position, the third cylinder 30 is activated, and the push rod 31 connected to one side of the third cylinder 30 is pushed forward to push the dressing on the conveyor belt 24 out for subsequent packaging. This is more cumbersome than the traditional method of transporting compressed gauze by stacking it up and then having workers package it.
