[0018] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, it should be noted that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by terms such as "vertical", "first direction", "second direction", etc. is based on the Figure 3 orientation or positional relationship shown. The orientation or positional relationship indicated by "third direction", "fourth direction", etc. is based on the Figure 5 orientation or positional relationship shown. These orientation terms are only for the convenience of describing the embodiments of the present application and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the embodiments of the present application.

[0019] The embodiments of the present application provide a medical device assembly production line 10. Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , and this medical device assembly production line 10 is used to assemble a medical device 20 having a first housing 21 and a second housing 22.

[0020] Figure 2 The medical device 20 shown is a defibrillator. It can be understood that the medical device 20 described in the embodiments of the present application is not limited to a defibrillator, and this medical device 20 can also be any other medical device 20 having a first housing 21 and a second housing 22.

[0021] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the medical device assembly production line 10 of the embodiments of the present application has a manual assembly station 10a, a fastening station 10c, and a labeling station 10d. The medical device assembly production line 10 includes a handling and conveying module 11, a turntable conveying module 12, an automatic fastening module 13, and an automatic labeling module 14.

[0022] The handling and conveying module 11 includes a component handling sub-module 111 and a component conveying sub-module 112. The component handling sub-module 111 includes a handling robot 1111, and the component conveying sub-module 112 includes a conveying line 1121. The handling robot 1111 transports materials including at least the first housing 21 and the second housing 22 to the conveying line 1121, and the conveying line 1121 transports the materials to the manual assembly station 10a.

[0023] Specifically, in addition to the first housing 21 and the second housing 22, the materials for assembling the medical device 20 also include other components, such as circuit boards, capacitors, connectors, etc. The conveyor line 1121 is at least used to convey the first housing 21 and the second housing 22. For other components other than the first housing 21 and the second housing 22, the conveyor line 1121 can convey other components. For example, other components can be placed or pre-assembled in the first housing 21 or the second housing 22 and conveyed together with the first housing 21 or the second housing 22, or other components can also be conveyed separately on the conveyor line 1121. The conveyor line 1121 can also not convey other components. For example, other components can be conveyed to the manual assembly station 10a by other means.

[0024] The structural form of the conveyor line 1121 is not limited, as long as it can play a conveying role. Exemplarily, the conveyor line 1121 can be provided with conveyor wheels and a conveyor belt. The conveyor belt is wound around the conveyor wheels, and the conveyor belt moves by winding around the conveyor wheels to play a conveying role.

[0025] The turntable conveying module 12 includes a turntable 121 and a rotary device 122 connected to the turntable 121. The turntable 121 has at least one product placement area 121a for placing the medical device 20. That is to say, the product placement area 121a can be one or multiple.

[0026] The structural form of the product placement area 121a is not limited. Exemplarily, please refer to Figure 2 , the turntable 121 can include a disk body 1211 and a plurality of positioning jigs 1212 provided on the disk body 1211. The positioning jigs 1212 include a plurality of positioning rods 12121 arranged at intervals, and the positioning rods 12121 jointly define the product placement area 121a. That is to say, the space surrounded by the positioning rods 12121 on the disk body 1211 is the product placement area 121a.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 2 , for the medical device 20 with a hollow area 20a or a groove area, for example, Figure 2 the defibrillator in

[0028] has a hollow area 20a for fingers to pass through to hold the defibrillator. The positioning jig 1212 can also be provided with a positioning seat 12122. The positioning seat 12122 passes through the hollow area 20a and can play a better positioning role for the medical device 20.

[0029] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 andFigure 2 The rotating device 122 drives the turntable 121 to rotate, so that the product placement area 121a is switched at least in turn between the manual assembly station 10a, the fastening station 10c and the labeling station 10d, so as to assemble the medical device 20 into a finished product. That is to say, the turntable 121 can rotate to move the same product placement area 121a from the manual assembly station 10a to the fastening station 10c, and then from the fastening station 10c to the labeling station 10d. The medical device 20 placed in the product placement area 121a is assembled into a finished product after being processed in the corresponding processes at least in the manual assembly station 10a, the fastening station 10c and the labeling station 10d.

[0030] For a turntable 121 having a plurality of product placement areas 121a, for example, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The number of product placement areas 121a can correspond to the number of workstations passed by the turntable 121. At the same time, the workstations passed by the turntable 121 can be evenly distributed along the circumference of the turntable 121, and each product placement area can also be evenly distributed along the circumference of the turntable 121. Each product placement area can stay at the corresponding workstation at the same time, so that the medical equipment 20 located at each workstation can perform the corresponding process at the same time.

[0031] In addition, the first shell 21 and the second shell 22 transported to the manual assembly station 10 a by the conveyor line 1121 are manually assembled in the product placement area 121 a located in the manual assembly station 10 a.

[0032] The manual shell assembly operation is to preliminarily assemble all components including the first shell 21 and the second shell 22 into a whole medical device 20 by manual assembly.

[0033] by Figure 2 Taking the defibrillator shown as an example, in addition to the first shell 21 and the second shell 22, the defibrillator also has components such as circuit boards, capacitors, and plug connectors. In the product placement area 121a of the manual assembly station 10a, it is necessary to manually assemble the defibrillator plug connectors, organize the related cables, and snap the first shell 21 and the second shell 22 together to form a whole. That is to say, after the manual shell operation is completed, the components in the first shell 21 and the second shell 22 have completed the corresponding assembly, and there is no need to disassemble the first shell 21 and the second shell 22 subsequently.

[0034] In addition, the turntable conveying module 12 can be provided with a control button. After the manual shell closing operation is completed, the operator can trigger the control button to make the rotary device 122 drive the turntable 121 to rotate, and convey the medical device 20 that has completed the manual shell closing operation to the next station.

[0035] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figures 3 to 5 , the automatic fastening module 13 corresponds to the fastening station 10c to perform an automatic fastener installation operation on the medical device 20 located at the fastening station 10c. That is to say, at the fastening station 10c, the automatic fastening module 13 can automatically insert fasteners such as screws and bolts into the first housing 21 and the second housing 22.

[0036] It should be noted that the automatic fastener installation operation performed at the fastening station 10c is mainly to automatically insert the fasteners into the first housing 21 and the second housing 22. If the fastener is a screw, after the screw is inserted into the first housing 21 and the second housing 22, the first housing 21 and the second housing 22 can be fastened together. If the fastener is a bolt, since the bolt generally needs to cooperate with a nut, after the bolt is inserted into the first housing 21 and the second housing 22, a nut also needs to be installed on the bolt. The automatic fastening module 13 can be configured with the function of automatically installing the nut, or the medical device 20 with the bolt inserted at the fastening station 10c can return to the manual assembly station 10a after completing other subsequent processes, and the nut can be installed on the bolt manually at the manual assembly station 10a. The automatic labeling module 14 corresponds to the labeling station 10d to perform an automatic labeling operation on the medical device 20 located at the labeling station 10d. That is to say, at the labeling station 10d, the automatic labeling module 14 automatically pastes the label on the medical device 20.

[0037] The conveyor line 1121 of the component conveying sub-module 112 is also used to convey the finished product of the medical device 20 to a designated position, and the handling robot 1111 of the component handling sub-module 111 is also used to handle the finished product of the medical device 20 located at the designated position. That is to say, the medical device 20 located in the product placement area 121a passes through each station in sequence, and the finished product of the medical device 20 assembled after completing all processes is then conveyed to the designated position by the conveyor line 1121, and the finished product of the medical device 20 located at the designated position is removed by the handling robot 1111.

[0038] Exemplarily, the finished product of the medical device 20 can perform a handling operation of being transported onto the conveyor line 1121 at the manual assembly station 10a. That is, the turntable 121 rotates to move the medical device 20 that has completed the automatic labeling operation from the labeling station 10d to the manual assembly station 10a, and the finished product of the medical device 20 is transported onto the conveyor line 1121 at the manual assembly station 10a.

[0039] It can be understood that for a medical device 20 that uses bolts for fastening connection and does not install nuts at the fastening station 10c, it is necessary to install nuts at the manual assembly station 10a first, and then transport the finished product of the medical device 20 with nuts installed to the conveyor line 1121.

[0040] Exemplarily, if the automatic labeling operation is the last process, the finished product of the medical device 20 after labeling can also be transported to the conveyor line 1121 at the labeling station 10d.

[0041] The finished product of the medical device 20 can be transported to the conveyor line 1121 manually, or an automatic handling device can be set up to transport the finished product of the medical device 20 to the conveyor line 1121 through the automatic handling device.

[0042] In the medical device assembly production line 10 of the embodiment of the present application, by setting up a transfer and conveying module 11, a turntable conveying module 12, an automatic fastening module 13, and an automatic labeling module 14, the transfer and conveying module 11 can automatically transport materials including at least a first housing 21 and a second housing 22 to the manual assembly station 10a. After the manual housing combination operation is completed at the manual assembly station 10a, by rotating the turntable 121 of the turntable conveying module 12, the medical device 20 can be automatically transported to the fastening station 10c. After the automatic installation operation of the fasteners is completed at the fastening station 10c, it is then automatically transported to the labeling station 10d for automatic labeling operation, and finally the transfer and conveying module 11 is used to remove the finished product of the medical device 20. The transportation and assembly of the medical device 20 are integrated on one production line. The transfer of the medical device 20 between stations is smooth, and the fastening and labeling operations can be automatically completed. Thus, not only can production time be saved and production efficiency be improved, but also product quality and yield can be improved.

[0043] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , the turntable conveying module 12 and the component transfer sub-module 111 can be located on opposite sides of the conveyor line 1121 respectively. The conveyor line 1121 includes a housing conveyor line 11211 and a finished product conveyor line 11212. The finished product conveyor line 11212 is located between the housing conveyor line 11211 and the component transfer sub-module 111, and the conveying direction of the finished product conveyor line 11212 is opposite to that of the housing conveyor line 11211.

[0044] The housing conveyor line 11211 is used to convey materials, and the finished product conveyor line 11212 is used to convey the finished product of the medical device 20.

[0045] The turntable conveying module 12 and the component handling sub-module 111 are respectively located on opposite sides of the conveying line 1121. The finished product conveying line 11212 is located between the housing conveying line 11211 and the component handling sub-module 111, and the conveying direction of the finished product conveying line 11212 is opposite to that of the housing conveying line 11211. This not only facilitates the arrangement of the turntable conveying module 12, the conveying line 1121 and the component handling sub-module 111, but also improves the conveying efficiency of the handling and conveying module 11.

[0046] Further, please refer to Figure 1 , the automatic labeling module 14 can be located on the side opposite to the turntable conveying module 12 with respect to the conveying line 1121. The manual assembly station 10a is located between the automatic labeling module 14 and the conveying line 1121. The automatic fastening module 13 is located on the side opposite to the manual assembly station 10a with respect to the turntable conveying module 12. This setting method can also facilitate the arrangement of the automatic labeling module 14 and the automatic fastening module 13, making the overall layout of the medical device assembly production line 10 compact.

[0047] In one embodiment, the handling and conveying module 11 can be provided with a conveying control device and a conveying sensor facing the conveying line 1121. The conveying sensor is used to detect the materials on the conveying line 1121. The conveying control device is respectively signal-connected to the conveying sensor and the conveying line 1121 to control the start and stop of the conveying line 1121 according to the detection result of the conveying sensor.

[0048] That is to say, the conveying control device can judge whether there are materials such as the first housing 21 and / or the second housing 22 on the conveying line 1121 according to the detection result of the conveying sensor, and control the operation or stop of the conveying line 1121 according to the detection result of the conveying sensor.

[0049] Exemplarily, the conveying sensor can be used to detect whether there are materials at one end of the conveying line 1121 close to the manual assembly station 10a along the conveying direction. For example, when the materials on the conveying line 1121 are conveyed to the manual assembly station 10a but have not been carried to the product placement area 121a located at the manual assembly station 10a, the conveying sensor detects that there are materials at one end of the conveying line 1121 close to the manual assembly station 10a along the conveying direction, then the conveying control device can control the conveying line 1121 to stop running according to the detection result of the conveying sensor. After the materials at one end of the conveying line 1121 close to the manual assembly station 10a along the conveying direction are carried to the product placement area 121a located at the manual assembly station 10a, the conveying sensor detects that there are no materials at one end of the conveying line 1121 close to the manual assembly station 10a along the conveying direction, then the conveying control device can control the conveying line 1121 to run according to the detection result of the conveying sensor to convey the subsequent materials to the manual assembly station 10a.

[0050] Exemplarily, the conveying sensor can also be used to detect whether there is material at one end of the conveying line 1121 away from the manual assembly station 10a in the conveying direction. For example, if the conveying sensor detects that there is no material at one end of the conveying line 1121 away from the manual assembly station 10a in the conveying direction, the conveying control device can control the conveying line 1121 to stop running according to the detection result of the conveying sensor. If the conveying sensor detects that there is material at one end of the conveying line 1121 away from the manual assembly station 10a in the conveying direction, the conveying control device can control the conveying line 1121 to run according to the detection result of the conveying sensor. Additionally, the conveying control device can also be signal-connected to the component handling sub-module 111. If the conveying sensor detects that there is no material at one end of the conveying line 1121 away from the manual assembly station 10a in the conveying direction, the conveying control device can control the handling robot 1111 to transport the material to the conveying line 1121 according to the detection result of the conveying sensor. If the conveying sensor detects that there is material at one end of the conveying line 1121 away from the manual assembly station 10a in the conveying direction, the conveying control device can control the handling robot 1111 to stop transporting the material according to the detection result of the conveying sensor.

[0051] It should be noted that the conveying control device can be provided with only a conveying sensor for detecting whether there is material at one end of the conveying line 1121 close to the manual assembly station 10a in the conveying direction, or only a conveying sensor for detecting whether there is material at one end of the conveying line 1121 away from the manual assembly station 10a in the conveying direction. It can also be provided with at least two conveying sensors, where at least one conveying sensor is used to detect whether there is material at one end of the conveying line 1121 close to the manual assembly station 10a in the conveying direction, and at least one conveying sensor is used to detect whether there is material at one end of the conveying line 1121 away from the manual assembly station 10a in the conveying direction.

[0052] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 , the turntable conveying module 12 can include a mounting seat 123 and a pressing device 124 provided on the mounting seat 123. The mounting seat 123 is provided at the rotation center of the turntable 121. The turntable 121 rotates relative to the mounting seat 123. That is to say, the turntable 121 rotates while the mounting seat 123 does not rotate. The pressing device 124 includes a pressing member 1241 and a pressing drive member 1242 connected to the pressing member 1241. The pressing drive member 1242 drives the pressing member 1241 to move toward the product placement area 121a located at the fastening station 10c.

[0053] The pressing drive member 1242 can drive the pressing member 1241 to move towards the product placement area 121a at the fastening station 10c, so that the pressing member 1241 presses the medical device 20 within the product placement area 121a at the fastening station 10c, ensuring that the position of the medical device 20 does not shift, and further ensuring that the automatic fastening module 13 can smoothly insert the fastener through the first housing 21 and the second housing 22.

[0054] The structural form of the pressing member 1241 is not limited, as long as it can press the medical device 20 within the product placement area 121a at the fastening station 10c. Exemplarily, please refer to Figure 2 , the pressing member 1241 may include an arm body 12411 and a pressing member 12412 provided on the arm body 12411. The pressing member 12412 is located on the upper side of the turntable 121 and faces the fastening station 10c. The pressing drive member 1242 drives the arm body 12411 to rotate, causing the pressing member 12412 to move towards the product placement area 121a at the fastening station 10c. That is to say, the arm body 12411 rotates, causing the pressing member 12412 to move from the upper side of the medical device 20 towards the medical device 20 and press the medical device 20.

[0055] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 , the medical device assembly production line 10 may further be provided with a product identification station 10b between the manual assembly station 10a and the fastening station 10c. The medical device assembly production line 10 further includes a product identification module corresponding to the product identification station 10b. The rotary device 122 drives the turntable 121 to rotate, moving the product placement area 121a at the manual assembly station 10a to the product identification station 10b, and performing a product identification operation on the medical device 20 through the product identification module.

[0056] Specifically, the medical device 20 that has completed the manual housing assembly operation at the manual assembly station 10a can first move to the product identification station 10b. The product identification module determines whether the medical device 20 matches the currently produced medical device 20, such as whether the model, specifications, etc. match. If it matches, the medical device 20 is transported to the fastening station 10c. If it does not match, the transportation is stopped, and a prompt can be given through alarm or other means.

[0057] Exemplarily, the product identification module may be a label antenna, which determines whether the medical device 20 matches the currently produced medical device 20 by reading the label on the medical device 20.

[0058] For the turntable conveying module 12 with the mounting base 123, exemplarily, please refer to Figure 2The turntable conveying module 12 may be provided with a mounting bracket 125 on the mounting seat 123 , and the identification module may be provided on the mounting bracket 125 and face the product identification station 10 b .

[0059] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , Figures 3 to 5 The automatic fastening module 13 may include a fastener feeder (not shown) and a fastening device 131, the fastening device 131 includes a moving mechanism 1311 and a fastening device 1312 arranged on the moving mechanism 1311, the fastening device 1312 includes an electric screwdriver assembly 13121, a clamping nozzle 13122 and an electric screwdriver driving component 13123, the electric screwdriver assembly 13121 includes an electric screwdriver 131211 with a screwdriver head 1312111, the clamping nozzle 13122 has a conveying channel and a fastening channel connected to the conveying channel, the fastening channel faces the fastening station 10c, the electric screwdriver assembly 13121 is located on the side of the clamping nozzle 13122 away from the fastening station 10c, and the screwdriver head 1312111 faces the fastening channel, and the fastener feeder is connected to the conveying channel. The moving mechanism 1311 drives the fastening device 1312 to move so as to position the fastening device 1312 , and the electric screwdriver driving component 13123 drives the electric screwdriver assembly 13121 to move toward the direction close to the clamping nozzle 13122 .

[0060] Specifically, the moving mechanism 1311 is used to drive the fastening device 1312 to move, so that the fastening channel of the clamping nozzle 13122 can be aligned with the corresponding fastener installation holes 20b on the first shell 21 and the second shell 22. The fastener supply machine is used to provide fasteners, wherein the fastener supply machine is connected to the conveying channel of the clamping nozzle 13122, and the fasteners provided by the fastener supply machine enter the fastening channel from the conveying channel of the clamping nozzle 13122.

[0061] When the moving mechanism 1311 drives the fastening device 1312 to move, so that the fastening channel of the clamping nozzle 13122 is aligned with the corresponding fastener mounting holes 20b on the first shell 21 and the second shell 22, the fastener feeding machine can convey the fastener to the conveying channel of the clamping nozzle 13122. After the fastener entering the conveying channel enters the fastening channel, the electric screwdriver driving component 13123 drives the electric screwdriver assembly 13121 to move in the direction close to the clamping nozzle 13122, so that the screwdriver head 1312111 of the electric screwdriver 131211 can extend into the fastening channel. The screwdriver head 1312111 can push the fastener in the fastening channel out of the fastening channel by rotating, and screw the fastener into the corresponding fastener mounting holes 20b on the first shell 21 and the second shell 22, thereby realizing the automatic installation operation of the fastener.

[0062] The structure of the electric screwdriver drive component 13123 is not limited. For example, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4, the electric screwdriver driving component 13123 may include an electric screwdriver guide rail 131231, an electric screwdriver slider 131232 slidably connected to the electric screwdriver guide rail 131231, and an electric screwdriver driving member 131233 for driving the electric screwdriver slider 131232 to slide. The electric screwdriver assembly 13121 is disposed on the electric screwdriver slider 131232. That is to say, the electric screwdriver driving member 131233 drives the electric screwdriver slider 131232 to slide along the electric screwdriver guide rail 131231, so that the electric screwdriver slider 131232 can drive the electric screwdriver assembly 13121 to move in the direction close to the chuck 13122.

[0063] In addition, Figure 4 the shown electric screwdriver driving member 131233 is a telescopic cylinder with a piston rod, Figure 4 the shown telescopic cylinder is a pneumatic cylinder. In some other embodiments, the telescopic cylinder may also be a hydraulic cylinder, etc. The piston rod of the telescopic cylinder drives the electric screwdriver slider 131232 to slide by telescoping.

[0064] In some other embodiments, the electric screwdriver driving member 131233 may also be a servo motor.

[0065] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the electric screwdriver assembly 13121 may be provided with an electric screwdriver positioning block 131212 and a pressing push rod 131213. The electric screwdriver 131211 is installed on the electric screwdriver positioning block 131212, and the pressing push rod 131213 clamps and fixes the electric screwdriver positioning block 131212. That is to say, when the pressing push rod 131213 releases the electric screwdriver positioning block 131212, the electric screwdriver 131211 and the electric screwdriver positioning block 131212 can be removed. Thus, it is convenient to disassemble and assemble the electric screwdriver 131211.

[0066] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the electric screwdriver assembly 13121 may be provided with a detection sensor 131214 having a through hole 131214a. The fastener feeder is communicated with the conveying channel through a connecting pipe, and the connecting pipe is disposed through the through hole 131214a. The detection sensor 131214 can detect the fasteners passing through the through hole 131214a to ensure that the fastener feeder conveys fasteners to the conveying channel.

[0067] Please refer to Figure 3 , the fastening device 1312 may also be provided with a buffer 13124 having a telescopic head. The buffer 13124 may be on the same side of the electric screwdriver assembly 13121 as the chuck 13122, and the telescopic head faces the electric screwdriver assembly 13121. After the electric screwdriver assembly 13121 moves in the direction close to the chuck 13122 to a position in contact with the telescopic head, the telescopic head can play a buffering role on the electric screwdriver assembly 13121 by retracting, so as to reduce the impact and noise of the electric screwdriver assembly 13121.

[0068] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the fastening device 1312 may be provided with a plurality of buffers 13124. Buffers 13124 may be respectively provided on opposite sides of the electric screwdriver assembly 13121 along the movement direction. That is to say, a buffer 13124 may also be provided on the side opposite to the chuck 13122. During the movement of the electric screwdriver assembly 13121 in the direction away from the chuck 13122, the electric screwdriver assembly 13121 may contact the telescopic head of the buffer 13124 to play a buffering role through the buffer 13124.

[0069] Furthermore, the fastening device 131 may have various structural forms. For example, in one embodiment, referring to Figure 3 , for the convenience of description, the Figure 3 -shown fastening device 131 may be referred to as the first fastening device 131a. The first fastening device 131a includes a first motion mechanism 1311a and a first fastening device 1312a provided on the first motion mechanism 1311a. The first fastening device 1312a includes a first electric screwdriver assembly 13121a, a first chuck 13122a, and a first electric screwdriver driving member 13123a.

[0070] Exemplarily, referring to Figure 3 , the first fastening device 131a may be provided with a first support base 1313, and the first motion mechanism 1311a is provided on the first support base 1313.

[0071] Please continue to refer to Figure 3 , the fastening channel of the first chuck 13122a extends vertically perpendicular to the horizontal plane. The first electric screwdriver assembly 13121a is located above the first chuck 13122a. The first motion mechanism 1311a drives the first fastening device 1312a to move above the fastening station 10c. That is to say, the first electric screwdriver driving member 13123a drives the first electric screwdriver assembly 13121a to move vertically. The electric screwdriver 131211 of the first electric screwdriver assembly 13121a screws the fastener into the corresponding fastener mounting holes 20b on the first housing 21 and the second housing 22 from the upper side of the medical device 20.

The first fastening device 1312a is disposed on the third motion component 1311a3. The first motion component 1311a1 drives the second motion component 1311a2 to linearly move in a first direction perpendicular to the vertical direction. The second motion component 1311a2 drives the third motion component 1311a3 to linearly move in a second direction perpendicular to both the vertical direction and the first direction. The third motion component 1311a3 drives the first fastening device 1312a to linearly move in the vertical direction.

[0073] That is to say, the first motion mechanism 1311a can be provided with three motion components. The motion directions of the first motion component 1311a1, the second motion component 1311a2, and the third motion component 1311a3 are perpendicular to each other. Thus, it is convenient to position the first fastening device 1312a.

[0074] The structural form of the first motion component 1311a1 is not limited as long as it can drive the second motion component 1311a2 to linearly move in the first direction. Exemplarily, please refer to Figure 3 , the first motion component 1311a1 may include a first guide rail 1311a11, a first slider 1311a12 slidably connected to the first guide rail 1311a11, and a first sliding drive member for driving the first slider 1311a12 to slide. The second motion component 1311a2 is disposed on the first slider 1311a12. That is to say, the first guide rail 1311a11 extends in the first direction. The first sliding drive member drives the first slider 1311a12 to slide along the first guide rail 1311a11, so that the first slider 1311a12 can drive the second motion component 1311a2 to linearly move in the first direction.

[0075] The structural form of the second motion component 1311a2 is not limited as long as it can drive the third motion component 1311a3 to linearly move in the second direction. Exemplarily, the second motion component 1311a2 may include a second guide rail, a second slider slidably connected to the second guide rail, and a second sliding drive member for driving the second slider to slide. The third motion component 1311a3 is disposed on the second slider (the structures of the second guide rail and the second slider are similar to Figure 3 the first guide rail 1311a11 and the first slider 1311a12). That is to say, the second guide rail extends in the second direction. The second sliding drive member drives the second slider to slide along the second guide rail, so that the second slider can drive the third motion component 1311a3 to linearly move in the second direction.

[0076] The structural form of the third moving component 1311a3 is not limited, as long as it can drive the first fastening device 1312a to move in a vertical straight line. Exemplarily, the third moving component 1311a3 may include a third guide rail, a third slider slidably connected to the third guide rail, and a third sliding driving component for driving the third slider to slide. The third moving component 1311a3 is disposed on the third slider (the structures of the third guide rail and the third slider are similar to Figure 3 the first guide rail 1311a11 and the first slider 1311a12). That is to say, the third guide rail extends vertically. The third sliding driving component drives the third slider to slide along the third guide rail, so that the third slider can drive the first fastening device 1312a to move in a vertical straight line.

[0077] In addition, the types of the first sliding driving component, the second sliding driving component, and the third sliding driving component are not limited. Exemplarily, Figure 3 the first sliding driving component, the second sliding driving component, and the third sliding driving component of the first moving mechanism 1311a shown are all servo motors. The servo motors can better control the sliding speeds of the first slider 1311a12, the second slider, and the third slider, and can ensure the position accuracy when each slider stops sliding, thereby improving the positioning accuracy of the first fastening device 1312a.

[0078] Further, please refer to Figure 3 . For the first moving mechanism 1311a using servo motors, the first moving mechanism 1311a may further be provided with a drag chain 1314 and a housing 1315. The cables of the components including the servo motors in the first moving mechanism 1311a may be disposed in the drag chain 1314 to protect the cables, and the housing 1315 may cover the periphery of the drag chain 1314 to play a role in beautification.

[0079] In some other embodiments, at least one of the first sliding driving component, the second sliding driving component, and the third sliding driving component may also be a telescopic cylinder with a piston rod. The telescopic cylinder may be a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, etc. The piston rod of the telescopic cylinder drives the corresponding slider to slide by telescoping.

[0080] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 . For ease of description, the Figure 5 shown fastening device 131 may be referred to as a second fastening device 131b. The second fastening device 131b includes a second moving mechanism 1311b and a second fastening device 1312b disposed on the second moving mechanism 1311b. The second fastening device 1312b includes a second electric screwdriver assembly 13121b, a second chuck 13122b, and a second electric screwdriver driving component 13123b.

[0081] Exemplarily, please refer to Figure 5The second fastening device 131b can be provided with a second supporting seat 1316 , and the second movement mechanism 1311b is provided on the second supporting seat 1316 .

[0082] Please continue reading Figure 5 The fastening channel of the second clamping nozzle 13122b extends in the horizontal direction and toward the fastening station 10c. The second electric screwdriver assembly 13121b is located on the side of the second clamping nozzle 13122b away from the fastening station 10c. The second moving mechanism 1311b drives the second fastening device 1312b to move around the fastening station 10c. That is to say, the second electric screwdriver driving component 13123b drives the second electric screwdriver assembly 13121b to move in the horizontal direction, and the electric screwdriver 131211 of the second electric screwdriver assembly 13121b screws the fastener into the corresponding fastener mounting hole 20b on the first shell 21 and the second shell 22 from the side of the medical device 20.

[0083] Please continue reading Figure 5 The second motion mechanism 1311b may include a fourth motion component 1311b1, a fifth motion component 1311b2 disposed on the fourth motion component 1311b1, and the second fastening device 1312b is disposed on the fifth motion component 1311b2. The fourth motion component 1311b1 drives the fifth motion component 1311b2 to linearly move along a third direction perpendicular to the vertical direction, the fifth motion component 1311b2 drives the second fastening device 1312b to linearly move along a fourth direction perpendicular to the vertical direction and the third direction, and the second electric screwdriver driving component 13123b drives the second electric screwdriver 131211 to linearly move along the fourth direction.

[0084] That is to say, the second motion mechanism 1311b can be provided with two motion components, the motion directions of the fourth motion component 1311b1 and the fifth motion component 1311b2 are parallel to the horizontal plane, and the motion directions of the fourth motion component 1311b1 and the fifth motion component 1311b2 are perpendicular to each other. The direction in which the fifth motion component 1311b2 drives the second fastening device 1312b to move linearly is consistent with the direction in which the second electric screwdriver driving component 13123b drives the second electric screwdriver 131211 to move linearly.

[0085] because Figure 2 The fastener mounting holes 20b located on the side of the medical device 20 shown have only a single setting height, that is, there is no height difference between the fastener mounting holes 20b located on the side of the medical device 20 for inserting different fasteners. Therefore, the second motion mechanism 1311b only needs to set two motion components whose motion directions are parallel to the horizontal plane to position the second fastening device 1312b.

[0086] The structural form of the fourth motion component 1311b1 is not limited as long as it can drive the fifth motion component 1311b2 to move linearly in the third direction. Exemplarily, please refer to Figure 5 , the fourth motion component 1311b1 may include a fourth guide rail 1311b11, a fourth slider 1311b12 slidably connected to the fourth guide rail 1311b11, and a fourth sliding drive member 1311b13 for driving the fourth slider 1311b12 to slide. The fifth motion component 1311b2 is disposed on the fourth slider 1311b12. That is to say, the fourth guide rail 1311b11 extends in the third direction, and the fourth sliding drive member 1311b13 drives the fourth slider 1311b12 to slide along the fourth guide rail 1311b11, so that the fourth slider 1311b12 can drive the fifth motion component 1311b2 to move linearly in the fourth direction.

[0087] The structural form of the fifth motion component 1311b2 is not limited as long as it can drive the second fastening device 1312b to move linearly in the fourth direction. Exemplarily, the fifth motion component 1311b2 may include a fifth guide rail, a fifth slider slidably connected to the fifth guide rail, and a fifth sliding drive member for driving the fifth slider to slide. The second fastening device 1312b is disposed on the fifth slider (the structures of the fifth guide rail and the fifth slider are similar to those of Figure 5 the fourth guide rail 1311b11 and the fourth slider 1311b12). That is to say, the fifth guide rail extends in the fourth direction, and the fifth sliding drive member drives the fifth slider to slide along the fifth guide rail, so that the fifth slider can drive the second fastening device 1312b to move linearly in the fourth direction.

[0088] In addition, the types of the fourth sliding drive member 1311b13 and the fifth sliding drive member are not limited. Exemplarily, Figure 5 both the fourth sliding drive member 1311b13 and the fifth sliding drive member of the second motion mechanism 1311b shown in Figure 5 are telescopic cylinders with piston rods.

[0089] Figure 2 The medical device 20 shown in

[0090] has a small number of lateral fastener mounting holes 20b. Therefore, using telescopic cylinders can also ensure that the second fastening device 1312b has high positioning accuracy.

[0091] In addition, for medical devices 20 of different specifications or models, there may be differences in the installation heights of the fastener mounting holes 20b located on the sides of the medical devices 20. Therefore, please refer to Figure 5 For the second fastening device 131b having the second support base 1316, preferably, the second support base 1316 may include a base body 13161, an adjustable support column 13162, and a support plate 13163 provided at the top of the support column 13162. The support column 13162 is provided on the base body 13161. The support column 13162 can move relative to the base body 13161 to adjust the installation height of the support plate 13163. The second motion mechanism 1311b is provided on the support plate 13163. That is to say, by adjusting the installation height of the support plate 13163, the installation height of the second motion mechanism 1311b can be changed to ensure that the second motion mechanism 1311b can adapt to various specifications or models of medical devices 20.

[0092] It can be understood that in some other embodiments, if there is a height difference between the fastener mounting holes 20b for passing through different fasteners located on the sides of the medical device 20, the second motion mechanism 1311b can also be provided with a motion component similar to the third motion component 1311a3 that can achieve vertical linear motion.

[0093] Since Figure 2 the medical device 20 shown has both fastener mounting holes 20b located at the top of the medical device 20 and fastener mounting holes 20b located on the sides of the medical device 20. Therefore, the automatic fastening module 13 is provided with two fastening devices 131, namely the first fastening device 131a and the second fastening device 131b. In some other embodiments, if the medical device 20 only has fastener mounting holes 20b located at the top of the medical device 20, the automatic fastening module 13 can only be provided with the first fastening device 131a. If the medical device 20 only has fastener mounting holes 20b located on the sides of the medical device 20, the automatic fastening module 13 can only be provided with the second fastening device 131b.

[0094] In some other embodiments, for a medical device 20 that has both fastener mounting holes 20b located at the top and fastener mounting holes 20b located on the sides, the automatic fastening module 13 can also be provided with only one fastening device 131. For example, the automatic fastening module 13 can only be provided with the first fastening device 131a. At the same time, the automatic fastening module 13 can also be provided with a flipping mechanism. The flipping mechanism can flip the medical device 20 located at the fastening station 10c to move the fastener mounting hole 20b originally located on the side of the medical device 20 to the lower side of the first electric screwdriver assembly 13121a.

[0095] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1, the automatic labeling module 14 may include a printing device 141, a collaborative robot 142 with a label sucking cylinder, a labeling control device (not shown in the figure), and an information reading device 143 facing the labeling station 10d. The labeling control device is respectively connected to the information reading device 143, the printing device 141, and the collaborative robot 142 in a signal connection manner. According to the product information of the medical device 20 located at the labeling station 10d read by the information reading device 143, it controls the printing device 141 to print corresponding labels, controls the collaborative robot 142 to suck the labels printed by the printing device 141 through the label sucking head of the label sucking cylinder, and pastes the labels onto the medical device 20 located at the labeling station 10d. That is to say, the control device can, according to the product information of the medical device 20 located at the labeling station 10d read by the information reading device 143, control the printing device 141 to print labels consistent with the product information, and the control device can also control the collaborative robot 142 to paste the labels automatically printed by the printing device 141 onto the medical device 20 located at the labeling station 10d, thereby realizing the automatic labeling operation.

[0096] Exemplarily, please refer to Figure 2 , the automatic labeling module 14 may set an installation plate 144 on one side of the labeling station 10d, and the information reading device 143 is set on the installation plate 144 and faces the labeling station 10d.

[0097] According to the actual printing requirements, the number of printing devices 141 can be one or multiple. For example, Figure 1 as shown in the automatic labeling module 14, three printing devices 141 are set, and the three printing devices 141 are respectively used to print three different types of labels, namely the main machine label, the service label, and the integration label.

[0098] Exemplarily, the information reading device 143 may be a label antenna, and the label antenna obtains the product information of the medical device 20 located at the labeling station 10d by reading the label on the medical device 20.

[0099] The automatic labeling module 14 may set a label receiving module at the label outlet of the printing device 141. The label receiving module includes a guide rail and a label receiving platform moving along the guide rail. The label receiving platform is used to receive the labels printed by the printing device 141, and the label sucking head sucks the labels from the label receiving platform. Specifically, the labels printed from the label outlet can fall onto the label receiving platform, and then the label receiving platform slides along the guide rail in the direction close to the collaborative robot 142. When the label receiving platform slides in place, the label sucking head of the collaborative robot 142 sucks the labels from the label receiving platform. Thus, it is convenient for the label sucking head to suck the labels.

[0100] Furthermore, the automatic labeling module 14 may also set a visual detection device 145 (refer to Figure 2) The vision detection device 145 can transmit relevant detection information to the labeling control device through vision detection. The labeling control device can perform relevant control operations based on the received detection information.

[0101] Exemplarily, the vision detection device 145 can include a walking axis and a first shooting component movably arranged on the walking axis. The first shooting component shoots the label, and the labeling control device detects the content of the label according to the shooting result of the first shooting component.

[0102] The walking axis can be arranged on the label receiving platform or separately on one side of the printing device 141. The first shooting component mainly includes a first camera, and a first light source can also be arranged.

[0103] By shooting the label, the first shooting component enables the labeling control device to judge whether the content on the printed label is correct according to the shooting result of the first shooting component. If it is correct, the subsequent operations can be continued. If it is incorrect, the current label can be discarded, and the printing device 141 can be controlled to reprint the label.

[0104] In some other embodiments, the first shooting component may not be used to judge whether the content on the printed label is correct. For example, the printing device 141 can be used to perform self-inspection on the label it prints.

[0105] Exemplarily, the vision detection device 145 can include a second shooting component facing the label sucking head. The second shooting component shoots the label sucking head with a label sucked thereon, and the labeling control device detects and locates the position of the label according to the shooting result of the second shooting component.

[0106] The second shooting component mainly includes a second camera, and a second light source can also be arranged.

[0107] The vision detection device 145 can be provided with a frame. The frame can be arranged on the collaborative robot 142 or separately on one side of the collaborative robot 142. The second shooting component can be arranged on the frame.

[0108] The second shooting component can shoot the label, enabling the label pasting control device to determine whether the current position of the label is correct based on the shooting result of the second shooting component. If there is a deviation in the current position of the label, when the label is pasted onto the medical device 20, the position of the label on the medical device 20 may also deviate. Therefore, if the label pasting control device determines that the current position of the label is incorrect based on the shooting result of the second shooting component, for example, if the current position of the label is too high, too low, or shifted left or right compared to the correct position, the label pasting control device can control the label suction head to move, so that the label moves to the correct position. Thus, it can be ensured as much as possible that the position of the label pasted onto the medical device 20 does not deviate.

[0109] Exemplarily, the vision detection device 145 may include a third shooting component facing the labeling station 10d. The third shooting component shoots the labeling position of the medical device 20 located at the labeling station 10d. The label pasting control device controls the collaborative robot 142 to paste the label to the labeling position according to the shooting result of the third shooting component, and performs a recheck for label deviation.

[0110] The third shooting component mainly includes a third camera, and a third light source can also be set.

[0111] The third shooting component can be set on the collaborative robot 142.

[0112] By shooting the labeling position of the medical device 20 located at the labeling station 10d, the third shooting component enables the label pasting control device to determine the correct labeling position on the medical device 20 based on the shooting result of the third shooting component. Furthermore, it can guide the collaborative robot 142 to paste the label to the correct labeling position, enabling the label pasting control device to accurately locate the labeling position based on the shooting result of the third shooting component.

[0113] In addition, after the collaborative robot 142 completes the labeling, the third shooting component can also shoot the labeling position of the medical device 20. The label pasting control device determines whether the label is misaligned based on the shooting result of the third shooting component. If the label is misaligned but the deviation is within the allowable range, the subsequent processes can continue. If the deviation is not within the allowable range, it can be prompted by means such as alarm.

[0114] By setting the third shooting component, it can be better ensured that the position of the label on the medical device 20 does not deviate significantly.

[0115] Exemplarily, please refer to Figure 2, the vision detection device 145 may further include a fourth shooting component 1451 facing the labeling station 10d. The fourth shooting component 1451 shoots the labeling position of the medical device 20 located at the labeling station 10d, and the labeling control device performs labeling detection on the medical device 20 that has completed the automatic labeling operation according to the shooting result of the fourth shooting component 1451.
