Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of medical instruments, and in particular to a thermometer supplier. Background Art

[0002] The hospital departments that receive patients with fever need to be equipped with some thermometers for patients to measure their body temperature; mercury thermometers are low-cost and accurate in measurement, so they are generally equipped with mercury thermometers.

[0003] After the mercury thermometer is used up, it needs to be disinfected before it can be used for the next patient. The current method is to simply put a box of medical alcohol into it, put the mercury thermometer in it, soak it for a period of time for disinfection, and then take out the thermometer for reuse after disinfection.

[0004] The above method has the following disadvantages: 1. The time for alcohol soaking and disinfecting the thermometer is generally about half an hour, and the thermometer is often used and returned. The newly returned thermometer and the already soaked thermometer are confused and difficult to distinguish, which may easily lead to the use of the newly returned thermometer. Since the thermometer is soaked for a short time and is not thoroughly disinfected, it may cause the spread of some diseases. 2. The mercury thermometer needs to be shaken before use, which is called shaking off. The purpose is to make the rising mercury fall back, so that the body temperature can be accurately measured, but the user may forget when using it, resulting in inaccurate temperature measurement. 3. When the mercury thermometer is taken out of the soaked alcohol, it has a small amount of alcohol on it and needs to be wiped dry before use, which is not very convenient.

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the applicant has applied for improvements to the existing thermometer box and applied for a patent, with the application number 202020858445.4. The thermometer box places a sterilized thermometer in the inner box in the drying chamber. Alcohol drips from the leakage hole, and the thermometer can be dried quickly due to the volatilization of alcohol. When taking the thermometer, it is taken from the inner box without wiping it dry or waiting for time to dry, which is convenient for the use of the thermometer. The disinfection chamber is filled with alcohol, and the alcohol enters the inner box from the leakage hole. An inner box in the disinfection chamber is used to place a thermometer with a longer disinfection time, and the newly placed thermometer is placed in another inner box. The thermometers placed successively can be placed separately to avoid confusion between the thermometers placed successively, and to prevent the thermometer with insufficient disinfection time from being taken out and dried before use. After the thermometers in the inner box in the drying chamber are used up, the position of the inner box is replaced, and the empty inner box is put into the disinfection chamber to receive the newly put in thermometer; the inner box with the thermometer that has been put in for enough disinfection time is put into the drying chamber to dry the thermometer; and the inner box with the thermometer that has been put in for a short time continues to be in the disinfection chamber to allow the thermometer to continue to be disinfected.

[0006] Although the above-mentioned thermometer box can avoid some problems of the conventional thermometer box, it requires manual operation to frequently replace the position of the inner box; and it is also impossible to achieve the drop of the thermometer. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0035] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the thermometer feeder includes a feeder housing 1 and an introduction mechanism 3, a conveyor belt assembly 2, a moving mechanism 4, a rotating mechanism 6, a grabbing mechanism 7, an output mechanism 5 and an electronic control device 8 arranged in the feeder housing 1; the bottom of the feeder housing 1 is an alcohol containing chamber 15, and a return hole 13 located above the alcohol containing chamber 15 is provided on the front surface of the feeder housing 1, and an output hole 14 is provided on the top of the feeder housing 1; the conveyor belt assembly 2 includes a conveyor belt 21 arranged in the alcohol containing chamber 15 in the left and right directions, and the conveyor belt 21 has a plurality of thermometer conveying grooves 211 arranged in the front and rear directions, and each thermometer conveying groove 211 is evenly spaced along the circumference of the conveyor belt 21; one end of the introduction mechanism 3 corresponds to the position of the return hole 13, and the other end of the introduction mechanism 3 corresponds to the position of the thermometer conveying groove 211 at the front end of the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 21; the moving mechanism 4, the rotating mechanism 6, the grabbing mechanism 7 and the output mechanism 5 The structures 5 are all located above the conveyor belt assembly 2, the moving mechanism 4 includes a moving frame 41 that can move left and right and up and down, the rotating mechanism 6 is connected to the moving frame 41, and the grabbing mechanism 7 is connected to the rotating mechanism 6; the output mechanism 5 includes a thermometer storage box 51, and the thermometer storage box 51 closes the output hole 14; the introduction mechanism 3 can introduce the thermometer 9 placed in the return hole 13 into the thermometer conveying groove 211; the grabbing mechanism 7 can grab the thermometer 9 in the thermometer conveying groove 211 at the rear end of the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 21; the rotating mechanism 6 can drive the thermometer 9 to rotate to achieve the drop of the thermometer 9; the thermometer storage box 51 can move down to receive the thermometer 9; the moving mechanism 4 can drive the thermometer 9 to leave the thermometer conveying groove 211 and put it into the thermometer storage box 51; the electronic control device 8 can control the introduction mechanism 3, the conveyor belt assembly 2, the moving mechanism 4, the rotating mechanism 6, the grabbing mechanism 7 and the output mechanism 5.

[0037] When the present invention is used, medical alcohol is added into the alcohol containing chamber 15, and the liquid level of the medical alcohol is higher than the conveyor belt 21, so that the thermometer 9 on the conveyor belt 21 can be immersed and disinfected.

[0038] The process of returning, disinfecting, dropping and outputting the thermometer 9 is as follows: When the borrowed thermometer 9 is returned, it is placed on the introduction mechanism 3 from the return hole 13. The introduction mechanism 3 guides the thermometer 9 into the thermometer conveying groove 211 at the front end of the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 21. Then the conveyor belt 21 gradually moves, driving the thermometer 9 to move backward along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 21. When the thermometer 9 moves to the rear end of the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 21, it has been disinfected for a long time. Then Fig.12 As shown, the moving mechanism 4 drives the grabbing mechanism 7 to move, and the grabbing mechanism 7 grabs the thermometer 9 and lifts it. Then the rotating mechanism 6 drives the grabbing mechanism 7 and the thermometer 9 grabbed by it to rotate, so that the thermometer 9 is thrown off, and at the same time, the alcohol attached to the thermometer 9 is thrown off and the alcohol is accelerated to evaporate, so that the thermometer 9 is dried; at this time, the thermometer 9 is sterilized, thrown off and dried, and is ready for output. When someone borrows the thermometer 9, Fig.13 As shown, the thermometer storage box 51 moves down to receive the thermometer 9. The moving mechanism 4 drives the thermometer 9 to move to the thermometer storage box 51, and the grabbing mechanism 4 releases the thermometer 9, and the thermometer 9 falls into the thermometer storage box 51. Then the thermometer storage box 51 moves up and resets, and the borrower can take the thermometer 9.

[0039] The supply process of the above-mentioned thermometer 9 is automatically completed by the present invention, and there is no need for the hospital to arrange personnel to supervise the thermometer, which is more convenient. The present invention can ensure that the thermometer 9 that is returned and disinfected first is borrowed first, and the thermometer 9 that is returned and disinfected later is borrowed later, avoiding incomplete disinfection due to insufficient disinfection time of the thermometer 9. The present invention realizes the drop and drying of the thermometer 9, which is not only convenient for the user, but also avoids the error of the thermometer 9 measurement caused by forgetting to drop.

[0040] At least three control buttons 81 should be provided on the electric control device 8, namely, the power on / off button, the thermometer return button and the thermometer borrowing button. When the thermometer supplier is in use, press the power on button. When borrowing the thermometer 9, press the thermometer borrowing button, and the electric control device 8 controls the following steps: the thermometer storage box 51 moves down to receive the thermometer 9; the moving mechanism 4 drives the thermometer 9 to move to the thermometer storage box 51, the grabbing mechanism 4 releases the thermometer 9, and the thermometer 9 falls into the thermometer storage box 51; then the thermometer storage box 51 moves up and resets, and the borrower can take the thermometer 9; then the grabbing mechanism 4 grabs another thermometer 9 and completes the drop and drying, waiting for the thermometer 9 to be borrowed. When returning the thermometer 9, press the thermometer return button, and the electric control device 8 controls the importing mechanism 3 to move and prepare to receive the thermometer 9. The thermometer 9 is placed on the introduction mechanism 3 from the return hole 13. The introduction mechanism 3 guides the thermometer 9 into the thermometer conveying groove 211 at the front end of the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 21, and then the electronic control device 8 controls the automatic operation of the conveyor belt assembly 2.

[0041] The electronic control device 8 controls the automatic operation of the conveyor belt assembly 2 as follows: after borrowing a thermometer 9, the conveyor belt 21 runs backward (in the direction of the conveyor belt 21) for a distance (the distance between two adjacent thermometer conveying slots 211), and the electronic control device 8 records the difference N between the borrowed amount and the returned amount of the thermometer 9. When returning the thermometer 9, the conveyor belt 21 runs forward for N-1 sections, and after the thermometer 9 enters the thermometer conveying slot 211, the conveyor belt 21 runs backward for N-1 sections. In this way, it can be ensured that one thermometer 9 is located in one thermometer conveying slot 211, and there is no idle thermometer conveying slot 211 between the thermometers 9.

[0042] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the conveyor belt assembly 2 is similar to the existing conveyor belt structure. The conveyor belt assembly 2 includes a driving shaft 22, a driven shaft 23 and a conveying motor 24. The driving shaft 22 and the driven shaft 23 are both installed on the feeder housing 1. The conveyor belt 21 is sleeved on the driving shaft 22 and the driven shaft 23 and tensioned. The conveying motor 24 is installed on the feeder housing 1 and connected to the driving shaft 22. The difference is that a thermometer conveying groove 211 is provided on the conveyor belt 21. The conveyor belt 21 can be made of rubber.

[0043] In order to avoid the grabbing mechanism 7 from interfering with the conveyor belt 21 when grabbing the thermometer, the conveyor belt 21 has a grabbing avoidance hole 212, which is arranged one-to-one with the thermometer conveying groove 211 and is located in the middle of the length direction of the thermometer conveying groove 211. The grabbing avoidance hole 212 is used to avoid the grabbing mechanism 7.

[0044] The specific structure of the introduction mechanism 3 is as follows Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the introduction mechanism 3 includes an introduction inclined plate 31, a thermometer temporary storage strip 32 and a first telescopic cylinder 33; the thermometer temporary storage strip 32 corresponds to the position of the return hole 13, the first telescopic cylinder 33 is vertically arranged and installed on the feeder housing 1, and the first telescopic cylinder 33 is connected to the thermometer temporary storage strip 32; one end of the introduction inclined plate 31 is in contact with the thermometer temporary storage strip 32, and the other end corresponds to the position of the thermometer conveying groove 211 at the front end of the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 21, and the introduction inclined plate 31 has an introduction inclined groove 311; the thermometer temporary storage strip 32 corresponds to the position of the thermometer temporary storage strip 32 ... A temporary storage strip notch 321 is provided on one side of the upper end of the strip 32 close to the introduction inclined plate 31, and the bottom surface of the temporary storage strip notch 321 is an inclined surface, and the bottom surface of the temporary storage strip notch 321 is connected with the top of the bottom surface of the introduction inclined groove 311, and the end surface of the thermometer temporary storage strip 32 closes the return hole 13; when the thermometer 9 is returned, the first telescopic cylinder 33 drives the thermometer temporary storage strip 32 to move downward, and the thermometer temporary storage strip 32 moves to the bottom of the return hole 13 to open the return hole 13, and the end surface of the introduction inclined plate 31 closes one side of the temporary storage strip notch 321.

[0045] In a normal state, the end surface of the thermometer temporary storage strip 32 closes the return hole 13, and the thermometer storage box 51 closes the output hole 14, both of which can prevent foreign matter from entering the thermometer feeder. Figure 6 The figure shows a normal state, the thermometer temporary storage strip 32 is in a high position, the bottom surface of the temporary storage strip notch 321 is connected with the top of the bottom surface of the introduction chute 311, and the end surface of the thermometer temporary storage strip 32 is closed and put back into the hole 13. When returning the thermometer 9, Figure 7As shown, the first telescopic cylinder 33 drives the thermometer temporary storage bar 32 to move downward, and the thermometer temporary storage bar 32 moves to the bottom of the return hole 13 so that the return hole 13 is open, and the end surface of the introduction inclined plate 31 closes one side of the temporary storage bar gap 321. At this time, the thermometer 9 is placed in the temporary storage bar gap 321. Since the end surface of the introduction inclined plate 31 closes one side of the temporary storage bar gap 321, the thermometer 9 will not leave the temporary storage bar gap 321. Then the thermometer temporary storage bar 32 moves upward and resets to Figure 6 In the state, the end surface of the introduction inclined plate 31 can no longer close one side of the temporary storage strip gap 321, and the thermometer rolls down along the bottom surface of the temporary storage strip gap 321 and the bottom surface of the introduction inclined slot 311 and enters the thermometer conveying slot 211. An existing visual device can be set to detect whether the thermometer 9 is placed in the temporary storage strip gap 321. After it is determined that it is placed, the thermometer temporary storage strip 32 moves up and resets. If the thermometer 9 is not detected to be placed in the temporary storage strip gap 321 for a long time, the present invention can report an error.

[0046] The specific structure of the grabbing mechanism 7 can be as follows Fig.11 As shown, the grabbing mechanism 7 includes a grabbing claw 71, a connecting rod 73, a mounting plate 75 and a second telescopic cylinder 76; the mounting plate 75 is connected to the rotating mechanism 6; there are two grabbing claws 71, and the two grabbing claws 71 are hinged to the mounting plate 75 through a lower hinge shaft 72, the part of the grabbing claw 71 located below the lower hinge shaft 72 is the grabbing part 711, and the part of the grabbing claw 71 located above the lower hinge shaft 72 is the driving rod 712; there are two connecting rods 73, the lower ends of the two connecting rods 73 are hinged to the two driving rods 712 respectively, and the upper ends of the two connecting rods 73 are hinged through an upper hinge shaft 74, and the two connecting rods 73 and the two driving rods 712 form a diamond structure; the second telescopic cylinder 76 is installed on the mounting plate 75 and connected to the upper hinge shaft 74.

[0047] In this way, the second telescopic cylinder 76 is extended, and the upper hinge shaft 74 moves downward, forcing the two connecting rods 73 and the two driving rods 712 to open, driving the two grabbing parts 711 to open, and preparing to grab the thermometer 9. After the grabbing claw 71 moves into place, the second telescopic cylinder 76 is shortened, and the upper hinge shaft 74 moves upward, forcing the two connecting rods 73 and the two driving rods 712 to close, driving the two grabbing parts 711 to close, and then the thermometer 9 can be grabbed. Because the thermometer 9 needs to be rotated and thrown down, the grabbing force of the grabbing claw 71 should be sufficient. The inner surface of the grabbing part 711 should be flexible to avoid damaging the thermometer 9.

[0048] The specific structure of the moving mechanism 4 is as follows: Fig. 9 and Fig.10As shown, the moving mechanism 4 includes a first linear guide 42, a connecting cross plate 43, a guide rod 44 and a third telescopic cylinder 45; the number of the first linear guides 42 is two, the first linear guides 42 are vertically arranged, and the two first linear guides 42 are spaced apart in the left-right direction; the connecting cross plate 43 is arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the first linear guides 42 and is connected to the slider of the first linear guide 42, and the connecting cross plate 43 is arranged in the front-to-back direction; the number of the guide rods 44 is two, the guide rods 44 are arranged in the left-to-right direction and the two ends are respectively connected to the two connecting cross plates 43, and the two guide rods 44 are spaced apart in the front-to-back direction; the moving frame 41 is mounted on the two guide rods 44; the third telescopic cylinder 45 is installed on any one of the connecting cross plates 43 and is connected to the moving frame 41.

[0049] In this way, the slider of the first linear guide 42 moves up and down to drive the moving frame 41, the rotating mechanism 6, the grabbing mechanism 7 and the thermometer 9 to move up and down. The third telescopic cylinder 45 can move left and right to drive the moving frame 41, the rotating mechanism 6, the grabbing mechanism 7 and the thermometer 9 to move left and right, ensuring that the grabbing mechanism 7 and the thermometer 9 can be in the required position.

[0050] The specific structure of the output mechanism 5 is as follows: Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, the output mechanism 5 is located between the two guide rods 44, and the output mechanism 5 includes a second linear guide rail 52, and the thermometer storage box 51 is connected to the slider of the second linear guide rail 52. The movement of the slider of the second linear guide rail 52 can drive the thermometer storage box 51 to move up and down.

[0051] The rotating mechanism 6 is used to drive the grabbing mechanism 7 and the thermometer 9 to rotate to achieve the dropping of the thermometer 9. The rotating mechanism 6 can adopt an existing rotating mechanism.

[0052] Since the present invention needs to be filled with medical alcohol and the thermometer 9 may also be broken, it is best to be fixed for use to avoid being overturned. The present invention can be fixed on a wall for use. Since the conveyor belt assembly 2 is to be immersed in alcohol, the conveying motor 24 should have a waterproof function. Although the other electric and electronic control components are not immersed in medical alcohol, since the internal humidity of the present invention is high, it is best to have a waterproof function.

[0053] The feeder housing 1 needs to be filled with medical alcohol, and the amount of medical alcohol cannot be too little to soak the thermometer 9. To this end, the following settings can be made: the feeder housing 1 includes a main housing 11 and a lower housing 12, the lower housing 12 is mounted on the lower end of the main housing 11 and can be removed, the main housing 11 has a liquid level notch 16, and the lower housing 12 has a liquid level window 17, and the liquid level window 17 faces the liquid level notch 16.

[0054] The liquid level of the medical alcohol in the feeder housing 1 can be seen through the liquid level window 17 and the liquid level notch 16. When the liquid level is not high enough, medical alcohol should be added. When adding medical alcohol, the lower housing 12 can be removed, and the lower housing 12 can be reinstalled after adding medical alcohol. The lower housing 12 can be removed and cleaned.
