Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of hospital logistics automation equipment technology, specifically a quick connection device for modular components of a hospital box-type logistics system. Background Technology
[0002] Modern hospitals rely heavily on their internal logistics systems for transporting a variety of supplies, including medicines, medical devices, samples, and documents. These transportation activities must be efficient and safe, and must comply with stringent medical industry regulations, such as ensuring the integrity of medicines and samples, preventing contamination of medical waste, and maintaining temperature control for cold chain supplies. Maintaining a constant temperature during cold chain transportation is particularly crucial, as it directly impacts the effectiveness of medicines and reagents and the accuracy of diagnostic results, thus placing even greater demands on the technical requirements of the logistics system.
[0003] Box-type logistics systems are widely used in hospital internal logistics due to their strong enclosure and high degree of standardization. This system effectively protects supplies from external contamination or leakage and damage during transportation. During transport, the box needs to operate and transition between multiple different modules, such as horizontal conveying, vertical lifting, position adjustment, and power supply, to achieve efficient connectivity of the logistics network. However, the transportation of cold chain supplies poses a greater challenge to the system's stability.
[0004] In practical applications, due to the stringent temperature control requirements of cold chain goods, transport containers typically need to be connected to the logistics system for power supply to maintain a constant temperature environment. However, many current logistics systems suffer from unstable connections and inconvenient operation when interfacing the container with the power supply module, potentially leading to brief power outages during transport and compromising the safety of cold chain goods. Furthermore, the transition of cold chain containers onto conveyor belts or lifting equipment often results in unstable movement due to insufficient inertia or uneven power. This not only increases transportation time costs but can also cause temperature fluctuations in the cold chain container, affecting the quality of the transported goods.
[0005] On the other hand, precise positioning of cold chain containers is also a crucial aspect of logistics system design. Because the containers may be subjected to vibration or external interference during transport, their position upon reaching the power connection point may deviate from the intended location, affecting power supply connections or the integration of subsequent logistics modules. This deviation requires additional manual intervention or mechanical correction, increasing the complexity of the logistics system. Furthermore, traditional logistics systems are often fixed in design with low modularity, making it difficult to quickly adapt to the needs of hospitals in adjusting departmental layouts or expanding functions.
[0006] To address the above problems, this invention proposes a quick connection device for modular components of a hospital box-type logistics system. Summary of the Invention

[0018] This invention provides a quick connection device for modular components of a hospital box-type logistics system. It has the following beneficial effects:
[0019] 1. This invention achieves a smooth transition of the cold chain box between conveyor belt one and conveyor belt two through the synergistic action of the booster component and the pusher component. The L-shaped push rod in the booster component is driven by an electric telescopic rod, which can provide stable thrust. Even when the box is heavy, it can ensure that the cold chain box can smoothly transition to the next stage of the conveyor belt.

[0020] 2. This invention achieves automated connection and disconnection of the power plug and socket through an electric push rod combined with a spring buffer design. During the insertion process, the spring buffer can effectively absorb the excess pressure generated during insertion, protect the plug and socket from damage, and extend the service life of the equipment.

[0021] 3. The reciprocating drive assembly and the straightening assembly of this invention combine to precisely adjust the position of the cold chain box. Through the linkage of the turntable, rack and pinion plate and the bidirectional lead screw, the push plate can perform bidirectional straightening operation on the box to ensure that its position is aligned with the power plug, thereby improving the accuracy of the logistics system operation. The straightening assembly can not only cope with the possible offset of the cold chain box during transportation, but also flexibly adjust the straightening range according to the size and shape of different boxes, further improving the adaptability of the system.
[0022] 4. This invention adopts a modular design, giving the entire logistics system high flexibility and adaptability. Modular components can be quickly disassembled and assembled, facilitating system maintenance and expansion. In addition, the modular design allows the system to flexibly adjust the conveyor layout or add functional modules, such as cold chain modules and sorting modules, according to the actual needs of the hospital, providing hospitals with more customized solutions to meet the logistics needs of different scenarios.

[0033] The technical solutions in 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.
[0034] Please see the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 3This invention provides a quick connection device for modular components of a hospital box-type logistics system, including a conveyor belt 1, a conveyor box 3 with power sockets 4 on all four sides, and a vertical limiting frame 18 and a moving frame 19 for vertical conveying. The conveyor belt 1 has annular tracks 2 installed on both sides of its top. Slide grooves 5 are formed on both sides of the outer wall of each annular track 2. Multiple sets of drive components are installed in each set of slide grooves 5. A mounting frame 9 is installed on the outer wall of each set of drive components. An electric push rod 15 is installed in the middle of each mounting frame 9. A mounting plate 12 is installed at the drive end of the electric push rod 15. Two limiting rods 10 and one end of two moving rods 13 are installed on the outer wall of the mounting plate 12. The two sets of limiting rods 10 and moving rods 13 are all inserted through the middle of the mounting frame 9. A spring 11 is sleeved on the outside of the limiting rod 10 between the mounting plate 12 and the mounting frame 9. A mounting plate 2 16 is installed at the other end of the two moving rods 13. Each moving rod 13 is fitted with a spring 14 located between the mounting frame 9 and the mounting plate 16. A power plug 17 is installed in the middle of the mounting plate 16. A motor 20 is installed on the moving frame 19. A mounting base 21 is fixed to the drive end of the motor 20. A conveyor belt 29 is installed in the middle of the mounting base 21. Pushing components are installed on both sides of the mounting base 21 to assist the cold chain box in moving from the conveyor belt 1 to the conveyor belt 29. Reciprocating drive components are installed at both ends of one of the conveyor shafts in the conveyor belt 29 to drive the correction component to correct the position of the conveyor box 3 on the conveyor belt 29, so that the power socket 4 and the power plug 28 can be plugged in. A pushing component is installed on the top of the mounting base 21 to further push the conveyor box 3 after it moves onto the conveyor belt 29, so that the power socket 4 and the power plug 28 can be plugged in. A push-out component and a second power component are installed on the top of the mounting base 21.
[0035] The outer wall of the movable frame 19 is slidably connected to the groove on the outer wall of the vertical limiting frame 18.
[0036] Specifically, during the transport of cold chain boxes, the entire quick connection device uses a modular design to achieve power connection and adjustment of the box position. The specific working process is as follows:
[0037] Power connection stage:
[0038] After the cold chain box is placed on top of conveyor belt 1, the corresponding electric push rod 15 is activated according to its position.
[0039] The electric push rod 15 drives the mounting plate 12 to approach the mounting bracket 9, pushing the limit rod 10 to move in the mounting bracket 9, while compressing the spring 11 to generate a rebound reaction force.
[0040] The moving rod 13 pushes the mounting plate 16 to move towards the conveyor box 3. The spring 14 stretches and generates a rebound reaction force, causing the mounting plate 16 to drive the power plug 17 to insert into the power socket 4 on the outer wall of the conveyor box 3, thus completing the power connection on both sides.
[0041] The modular design at this stage showcases the advantages of automated power connection. The linkage between the electric push rod 15 and the spring ensures a tight connection during insertion, avoiding the uncertainties of traditional manual insertion and improving reliability during cold chain transportation. Simultaneously, the spring's cushioning effect effectively prevents wear on the insertion device, extending the system's lifespan.
[0042] Conveyor belt movement phase:
[0043] After the power connection is completed, the conveyor belt 1 starts, and at the same time, the motor 7 drives the roller 8 to rotate along the slide 5, which in turn drives the mounting frame 9 to move synchronously along the circular track 2.
[0044] The cold chain box moves to the connection point between the vertical elevator and conveyor belt 1, driven by conveyor belt 1.
[0045] This stage of the design, through the cooperation of the circular track 2 and the chute 5, ensures the smooth operation of the conveyor box 3 within the system. The precise drive of the motor and rollers 8 ensures continuous transport of the cold chain boxes, avoiding the jamming and vibration problems common in traditional logistics systems. The modular nature of the circular track 2 also provides flexibility for system expansion, allowing the conveyor path to be adjusted as needed to meet the logistics requirements of different hospital departments.
[0046] Power disconnection phase:
[0047] When the cold chain box reaches the connection point, the electric push rod 15 retracts in the opposite direction, the mounting plate 16 retracts, and the power plug 17 separates from the power socket 4.
[0048] Then conveyor belt 1 continues to run, moving the cold chain box to the entrance of the vertical elevator.
[0049] During the push and transition phase of the cold chain box, the push component assists the cold chain box in moving from conveyor belt 1 to conveyor belt 29. The push component provides additional thrust, effectively preventing the cold chain box from failing to reach the next conveyor belt due to insufficient inertia. Simultaneously, the operation of conveyor belt 29 drives the reciprocating drive component, which in turn drives the alignment component to correct the position of the conveyor box 3 at the top of conveyor belt 29, aligning the power socket 4 with the power plug 28. The position correction mechanism automatically adjusts the position of the cold chain box through the linkage operation of the reciprocating drive component, ensuring the accuracy of the power connection and greatly improving the efficiency of the logistics system. The intelligent design then moves the pusher component to a horizontal position directly behind the conveyor box 3, pushing the power socket 4 on the conveyor box 3 to connect with the power plug 28. After the moving frame 19 moves the mounting base 21 to the conveyor belt connection position of the next stage of the line or the designated transport target point, the motor 20 drives the mounting base 21 to adjust its orientation, aligning the conveyor belt 29 with the connection point direction. This initiates the pusher component, assisting the conveyor belt 29 in separating the power socket 4 and the power plug 28. The modular design of this stage fully demonstrates the flexibility and scalability of the logistics system. The orientation adjustment function of the mounting base 21 supports switching between multiple conveyor paths, adapting to complex logistics needs. The automated operation of the pusher component reduces friction and collisions during the separation process of the cold chain box, further ensuring the safety of material transportation.
[0050] Please see the appendix Figure 3 The drive assembly includes a U-shaped frame 6, which is set outside the circular track 2. Motors 7 are installed on both sides of the U-shaped frame 6. Rollers 8 are installed on the drive ends of the two motors 7. The outer sides of the two rollers 8 are respectively set inside the sliding grooves 5 on both sides. The outer wall of the U-shaped frame 6 is connected to the outer wall of the mounting frame 9.
[0051] Specifically, the drive assembly, through the cooperation of the U-shaped frame 6 and the roller 8 in the slide 5, and the dual-sided synchronous drive of the motor 7, realizes the precise movement of the mounting frame 9 along the circular track 2, ensuring the smooth operation of the entire conveying system.
[0052] Please see the appendix Figure 6 and attached Figure 8 The booster assembly includes two mounting slots 40, which are respectively opened on both sides of the inner wall of the mounting base 21. A linear guide rail 41 is installed inside each mounting slot 40. A movable frame 42 is provided on the outer wall of the linear guide rail 41. A motor 43 is installed inside the movable frame 42. A movable seat 44 is installed on the drive end of the motor 43. An electric telescopic rod 45 is installed on the outer wall of the mounting slot 40. An L-shaped push rod 46 is installed on the drive end of the electric telescopic rod 45.
[0053] Specifically, during the push and transition phase of the cold chain box, the push component assists conveyor belt 1 in cooperating with conveyor belt 29 to ensure that the cold chain box moves stably to the top of conveyor belt 29. During this phase, motor 3 43 starts synchronously, driving the movable seat 44 and L-shaped push rod 46 to move closer to the rear of the cold chain box.
[0054] The electric telescopic rod 45 pushes the L-shaped push rod 46 to extend to the rear of the cold chain box. The linear guide rail 41 drives the moving frame 42 to move the L-shaped push rod 46 synchronously, thereby helping to push the cold chain box into the conveyor belt 29.
[0055] Please see the appendix Figure 4 - Appendix Figure 5 The reciprocating drive assembly includes two turntables 30, which are respectively installed at both ends of the conveyor shaft in the middle of the conveyor belt 29. A rotating shaft 31 is installed on the outer wall of each turntable 30 at a position off-center. One end of a movable rod 32 is installed on the outer wall of each rotating shaft 31. A rack plate 34 rotates on the other end of the movable rod 32. Limit seats 33 are installed on both sides of the outer wall of the mounting base 21. The outer wall of the rack plate 34 slides on the inner wall of the limit seat 33. A fixed frame 35 is installed at the bottom of the mounting base 21. A bidirectional lead screw 36 rotates in the middle of the fixed frame 35. Gears 52 are fixed on both sides of the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw 36. The outer tooth tips of the gears 52 mesh with the bottom tooth tips of the rack plate 34.
[0056] The correction assembly includes two movable seats 37, which are respectively rotated on both sides of the outer wall of the bidirectional lead screw 36. One end of the push rod 38 is installed on the top of the opposite side of the two movable seats 37, and the other end of the two push rods 38 is installed with a push plate 39. Limit seats 53 are installed on both sides of the top of the mounting seat 21, and the outer walls of the two push rods 38 slide in the middle of the two limit seats 53.
[0057] Specifically, after the cold chain box moves to the top of conveyor belt 29, its synchronous reciprocating drive component drives the correction component to operate, thereby correcting the position of the cold chain box at the top of conveyor belt 29 to ensure that the power socket 4 corresponds to the power plug 28. Conveyor belt 29 starts, and its conveyor roller drives the turntables 30 on both sides and the rotating shaft 31 to perform circular motion, driving the movable rod 32 and the rack plate 34 to move back and forth. The rotating shaft 31 is located on the outer wall of the turntable 30 off-center. Therefore, when the turntable 30 performs circular motion, it will drive the rotating shaft 31 to move synchronously around the center.
[0058] At this time, under the rotation of the rotating shaft 31 around the center, the movable rod 32 will drive the rack plate 34 to move back and forth in the limiting seat 33, thereby driving the gear 52 to rotate under the movement of the rack plate 34, which in turn drives the bidirectional lead screw 36 to rotate in both directions. At this time, the movable seat 37 will move back and forth towards and away from the mounting seat 21, so that the push rod 38 will move back and forth in the middle of the limiting seat 53, and simultaneously drive the push plate 39 to move closer to and away from the outer wall of the cold chain box, thereby achieving the purpose of correcting the intermediate conveyor box 3.
[0059] Please see the appendix Figure 4 The pushing component includes two fixed frames 47. The bottom of the two fixed frames 47 is respectively installed on the top sides of the mounting base 21. Linear guide rails 48 are installed inside the two fixed frames 47. U-shaped frames 49 are provided on the outer walls of the two linear guide rails 48. Hydraulic cylinders 50 are installed on the top of the U-shaped frames 49. Push plates 51 are installed on the driving end of the hydraulic cylinders 50.
[0060] Specifically, after the conveyor box 3 moves to a position directly above the conveyor belt 29, its linear guide rail 248 is activated, which in turn activates the U-shaped frame 249 to drive the hydraulic cylinder 50 to move downward, causing the push plate 251 to move to a horizontal position behind the conveyor box 3. Then, the hydraulic cylinder 50 is activated to drive the push plate 251 to push the conveyor box 3 towards the power plug 28, so that the conveyor box 3 and the power plug 28 are connected.
[0061] Please see the appendix Figure 7 The ejection component includes two electric telescopic rods 23, the outer walls of which are installed in the middle of the back plate 22, and silicone pads 24 are installed on the drive ends of the two back plates 22.
[0062] Specifically, after the mounting base 21 reaches the designated position, its electric telescopic rod 23 is activated, driving the silicone pad 24 to move, which in turn assists the conveyor belt 29 in pushing the conveyor box 3 to move, thereby separating the power socket 4 and the power plug 28.
[0063] Please see the appendix Figure 9 The second power supply assembly includes multiple limiting rods 25, the outer wall of each limiting rod 25 slides in the middle of the back plate 22, the ends of the multiple limiting rods 25 are equipped with mounting plates 3 27, the middle of the mounting plates 3 27 is equipped with a power plug 28, and each limiting rod 25 is fitted with a spring 3 26 at the position between the back plate 22 and the mounting plates 3 27.
[0064] Specifically, when the power socket 4 and the power plug 28 are plugged in, they are pushed by the transmission box 3. In order to ensure that the power socket 4 and the power plug 28 are not damaged, the mounting plate 3 27 will drive the limit rod 25 to move backward under the action of the pushing force, so that the mounting plate 3 27 compresses the spring 3 26 and generates a rebound reaction force, thereby providing buffer protection when the power plug 28 and the power socket 4 are plugged in.
[0065] The booster assembly, hydraulic cylinder 50, and pusher plate 2 51 are all located above conveyor belt 1.
[0066] Working Principle: When conveying cold chain boxes, the box to be conveyed is first placed on top of conveyor belt 1. Based on its position, a corresponding set of electric push rods 15 is activated, causing mounting plate 12 to approach mounting frame 9. At this time, limit rod 10 moves in the middle of mounting frame 9, and spring 11 compresses, generating a rebound force. Simultaneously, moving rod 13 pushes mounting plate 16 closer to the box body, and spring 14 stretches synchronously, generating a rebound force. At this time, power plug 17 enters the power socket 4 on the outer wall of conveyor box 3. Once the power sockets 4 on both sides and power plug 17 are connected, conveyor belt 1 and motor 7 start synchronously. Roller 8 rotates inside the slide chute 5, driving mounting frame 9 to move synchronously along the outer wall of the circular track 2. Conveyor belt 1 then moves the conveyor box... 3. The conveyor box 3 moves synchronously until it reaches the connection point between the vertical lift and the conveyor belt 1. At this point, the electric push rod 15 retracts in the reverse direction, causing the power plug 17 to separate from the power socket 4. Then, the conveyor belt 1 continues to run, the synchronous motor 3 43 starts, driving the movable seat 44 to rotate, which in turn moves the L-shaped push rod 46 closer to the rear of the conveyor box 3. The electric telescopic rod 2 45 starts, driving the L-shaped push rod 46 to extend to the rear wall of the conveyor box 3. As the conveyor belt 1 runs, the linear guide rail 1 41 continues to run, driving the moving frame 42 to move the L-shaped push rod 46 synchronously, thereby helping to push the conveyor box 3 to the top of the conveyor belt 29. Simultaneously, the conveyor belt 29 runs, and its internal conveyor rollers drive the turntables 30 on both sides to rotate synchronously, thus making the rotating shaft 31 The synchronous circular motion around the center drives the movable rod 32 to move, which in turn causes the rack plate 34 to move back and forth within the limit seat 33, thereby driving the gear 52 to rotate reciprocally. Under the rotation of the gear 52, the bidirectional lead screw 36 rotates synchronously, which in turn drives the movable seat 37 to move back and forth towards and away from the outer wall of the mounting seat 21. Through the push rod 38, the push plate 39 moves synchronously. Under the relative and opposite movement of the two push plates 39, the position of the conveyor box 3 at the top of the conveyor belt 29 is corrected so that the power socket 4 on the conveyor box 3 is aligned with the power plug 28. Then the linear guide rail 48 is activated, driving the U-shaped frame 49 to move down, which in turn moves the push plate 51 down to the horizontal position of the conveyor box 3. Then the hydraulic cylinder 5 Driven by the second drive plate 51, the conveyor box 3 is moved towards the power socket 4 and power plug 28 on the conveyor box 3.
