Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an intermediate distance changing device for a safety needle, belonging to the technical field of automatic detection devices for safety needles. Background Art

[0002] In the medical field, injection needles, blood collection needles, dispensing needles, flushing needles and other medical needles are widely used in various treatment and diagnosis processes. However, after use, most of these medical needles are discarded. Since traditional injection needles, blood collection needles, dispensing needles, flushing needles and other medical needles do not have safety protection devices, workers are often injured by needle sticks when cleaning waste and recycling, and there is also a risk of cross infection. For this reason, professionals have designed a variety of safety needles that can hide the needles after use to prevent harm to the human body. The sliding sleeve protection safety needle is one of them that is very convenient to operate.

[0003] The so-called sliding sleeve protection safety needle Z00, such as Figure 12-14 As shown, it includes a needle handle Z01 and a needle Z14 inserted in the needle handle Z01. The needle handle Z01 connects the needle Z14 with a hose Z12. The rear end of the hose Z12 is generally provided with a needle holder Z13. The needle handle Z01 is provided with a wing Z04. It also includes an inner sleeve Z05, an outer sleeve Z09 and a protective cap Z11 which are sleeved on the needle handle Z01. The factory state of the safety needle Z00 is that the outer sleeve Z09 and the inner sleeve Z05 are sleeved on the root of the needle handle Z01 in sequence, and the protective cap Z11 is sleeved on the head of the needle handle Z01 and protects the needle Z14. When in use, the medical staff pulls off the protective cap Z11, and it can be used like a normal needle. Before discarding after use, as Fig.13 As shown, the medical staff only needs to gently pull the outer sliding sleeve Z09 to make the outer sliding sleeve Z09 and the inner sliding sleeve Z05 unfold in sequence to protect the needle Z14. In this way, the needle Z14 will not stab the staff during the garbage transportation process, so it is called a safety needle Z00.

[0004] In order to prevent the inner sleeve Z05 and the outer sleeve Z09 from sliding randomly and affecting normal use, or from retracting under external force after being pulled apart and exposing the needle Z14 when discarded, a locking mechanism needs to be provided on the needle handle Z01, the inner sleeve Z05 and the outer sleeve Z09, and the locking mechanism includes a first card slot Z02 provided at the rear of the needle handle Z01, a second card slot Z03 provided at the front of the needle handle Z01, a first buckle Z06 provided at the rear of the inner sleeve Z05, a third card slot Z07 provided at the rear of the inner sleeve Z05, a fourth card slot Z08 provided at the front of the inner sleeve Z05 and a second buckle Z10 provided at the rear of the outer sleeve Z09. In the factory state, if Fig.12As shown, the first card slot Z02 and the first buckle Z06, the third card slot Z07 and the second buckle Z10 are respectively engaged with each other in a locked state, which will not affect normal operation. Fig.13 As shown, the first buckle Z06 and the second slot Z03, the second buckle Z10 and the fourth slot Z08 are respectively engaged in a locked state and will not retract.

[0005] Since the inner sleeve Z05, outer sleeve Z09 and needle handle Z01 are generally made of plastic, their slots and buckles cannot ensure precise fit, and the safety needle Z00 needs to be connected to adjacent parts by gluing on the production line, the inner sleeve Z05, outer sleeve Z09 and needle handle Z01 may be too tightly fitted in the factory state. If the medical staff cannot easily pull the sleeve, the environmental protection requirements for discarding the safety needle Z00 cannot be met. Therefore, it is very important to control the sleeve tension of each safety needle Z00 within the standard requirements, and whether it meets the requirements requires a pull-out test.

[0006] At present, this work can only be done by manual pulling and spot checking, which has the following shortcomings: first, the efficiency is too low and cannot be fully tested; second, the force is based on feeling without accurate standards; third, the stroke is not well controlled. Once it is pulled to the locked state when it is discarded, the whole thing is scrapped and cannot be restored. Given that the amount of injection needles as disposable consumables is very large, this inefficient and inaccurate manual inspection method obviously cannot meet actual needs. Therefore, in the production process of safety needles, an efficient and accurate tension detection device is needed to conduct comprehensive inspections of safety needles.

[0007] In order to ensure that the safety needles can smoothly enter the comprehensive testing process, the transfer device is first required to assist the grasping device and smoothly transfer the safety needles from the production line to the fixture of the tension testing equipment. However, due to production requirements, the safety needles are arranged adjacent to each other on the production line with a small spacing. This tight arrangement is not conducive to the grasping and transfer operation of the grasping device, so a transfer device that can solve this problem is needed.

[0008] It should be noted that the above information disclosed in this background technology section is only for understanding the background technology of the present inventive concept, and therefore, it may contain information that does not constitute the prior art. Summary of the invention

The center distance D between the starting ends of every two adjacent slideways 6111 is equal, the center distance d between the ending ends of every two adjacent slideways 6111 is also equal, and the center distance D between the starting ends of the slideways 6111 is greater than the center distance d between the ending ends.

[0060] When the variable pitch drive mechanism 614 drives the slide plate 611 to move up and down, the movement of the slide plate 611 drives the guide wheel 6122 to move along the slide 6111, and the movement of the guide wheel 6122 drives the variable pitch frame 6121 to move along the variable pitch guide shaft 613, so as to adjust the spacing between each group of single slider assemblies 612. When the slide plate 611 moves upward, the guide wheel 6122 moves toward the end along the slide 6111, and each group of single slider assemblies 612 approaches each other.

During this process, the needle holder is placed in the limit groove of the needle holder alignment plate 616. At the same time, the second hose alignment plate 6123 and the third hose alignment plate 6124 support the two limit points of the hose to ensure the correct position of the hose. At this time, the telescopic shaft of the alignment drive cylinder 6252 is in a retracted state, and the alignment frame 623 is in a low position, ready for the next alignment operation.

[0074] Next, enter the correct position stage: Figure 6-Figure 11 First, the alignment drive cylinder 6252 is started, and its drive shaft is connected to the alignment guide shaft 621 through the U-shaped guide shaft bracket 6253. Due to the inclined setting of the drive shaft, the alignment frame 623 moves obliquely upward in parallel under the coordinated action of the four-bar linkage. When the alignment frame 623 slowly rises, the shifting block 624 fixed on the pitch-changing frame 6121 will touch and shift the flap 622. The flap 622 holds the disc on the safety needle during the flipping process, so that it gradually rotates from an inclined state to a horizontal state and levels it. When the alignment frame 623 moves to the highest position, the hose at the rear end of the needle handle is held by the first hose alignment vertical plate 627, and the protective cap is firmly held by the protective cap alignment vertical plate 626, thereby completing the entire alignment process.

[0075] Then, the pitch changing stage is entered: the pitch changing drive cylinder 6141 is started, and its telescopic shaft is connected to the slide plate 611 through the slide 6111 seat. Driven by the pitch changing drive cylinder 6141, the slide plate 611 moves in the vertical direction. As the slide plate 611 moves, the guide wheel 6122 installed at the bottom of the pitch changing frame 6121 moves along the preset slide 6111 path (i.e., the slide 6111). The movement of the guide wheel 6122 enables the pitch changing frame 6121 to slide axially along the pitch changing guide shaft 613. As the guide wheel 6122 and the pitch changing frame 6121 continue to move, the distance between each group of single slider assemblies 612 is adjusted accordingly. Since there is an angle between the extension directions of two adjacent slides 6111, and the center distance D at the starting end of the slide 6111 is greater than the center distance d at the end (reference Figure 5 ), when the slide plate 611 moves upward, each group of single slider assemblies 612 gradually approaches each other, thereby driving the safety pins placed on the pitch-changing frame 6121 to gradually approach each other; and when the slide plate 611 moves downward, each group of single slider assemblies 612 gradually moves away from each other, thereby driving the safety pins placed on the pitch-changing frame 6121 to gradually move away from each other. The pitch-changing process provides the necessary spacing adjustment for the grasping device to transfer the safety pins from the pitch-changing device to the tension detection device.

[0076] To sum up, the intermediate distance changing device of the safety needle of the present invention can not only automatically place the safety needle to a position where the needle handle is horizontal through the positioning and distance changing operations, but also adjust the spacing between adjacent safety needles, so as to adapt to the arrangement spacing of different production lines and meet the grasping spacing requirements of the grasping device.

[0077] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
