[0051] Embodiment 1
[0052] See Figure 1-16 As shown, this embodiment discloses an automatic sorting device 100 for collection tubes, which includes: a collection rack 1, a detection mechanism 3, and a bin-dividing mechanism 4 provided with at least one storage bin 5; the collection rack 1 is provided with a first chute 12 for accommodating the collection tubes, and the collection tubes slide along the first chute 12 into the detection mechanism 3; the detection mechanism 3 can detect the information of the collection tubes, and the detection mechanism 3 drives the corresponding storage bin 5 of the bin-dividing mechanism 4 to open according to the information of the collection tubes, so that the collection tubes move into the storage bin 5.
[0053] For the automatic sorting device 100 for collection tubes in this embodiment, by setting the collection rack 1, the collection of the collection tubes is realized. By setting the detection mechanism 3, the information detection of the collection tubes is realized. Combined with the bin-dividing mechanism 4, the collection tubes can be classified according to the information of the collection tubes, and the collection tubes can be sent into the corresponding storage bin 5, significantly improving the sorting speed of the collection tubes, reducing the uncertainty of operation and the risk of misoperation, and thus improving the overall efficiency and accuracy of blood collection and detection.
[0054] See Figure 1-3 As shown, the collection rack 1 is provided with a discharge port 11, and the first chute 12 is communicated with the discharge port 11; the detection mechanism 3 is located on the side of the discharge port 11 away from the first chute 12. In specific implementation, medical staff put the collection tubes into the first chute 12, and the collection tubes move along the first chute 12 to the discharge port 11 and enter the detection mechanism 3 from the discharge port 11.
[0055] Specifically, the collection rack 1 and the first chute 12 are inclined, and the end of the collection rack 1 and the first chute 12 close to the discharge port 11 is lower than the other end. That the end of the collection rack 1 close to the discharge port 11 is lower than the other end makes the first chute 12 form an inclination angle, ensuring that the collection tubes can naturally slide along the first chute 12 to be close to the discharge port 11, so that the detection mechanism 3 can receive the collection tubes when the discharge port 11 is open.
[0056] See Figure 3-8As shown in the figure, a stop-and-pass mechanism 2 is provided on the collection rack 1. The stop-and-pass mechanism 2 is used to block or release the collection tube so that the collection tube stays on the collection rack 1 or enters the detection mechanism 3. More specifically, the stop-and-pass mechanism 2 is provided at the export 11. In the initial state, the stop-and-pass mechanism 2 blocks the export 11 so that the collection tubes entering the collection rack 1 are arranged in sequence in the first chute 12. After the detection is started, the stop-and-pass mechanism 2 opens the export 11 so that the collection tube closest to the export 11 enters the detection mechanism 3, and then the stop-and-pass mechanism 2 blocks the export 11 so that the remaining collection tubes stay in the first chute 12. The setting of the stop-and-pass mechanism 2 realizes the stop-and-pass control of the export 11, and also facilitates the realization of the control of the single collection tube dropping, improving the automation degree and work efficiency of the collection tube detection and sorting process.
[0057] Specifically, the stop and pass mechanism 2 includes: a mounting base 21, two blocking members 22, a spring block 23 and a stop and pass driving member 24; the mounting base 21 is arranged above the collection rack 1, and the mounting base 21 is provided with a convex shaft 211; the two blocking members 22 are symmetrically arranged and rotatably connected to the convex shaft 211, and a plug rod 221 is provided at the top of the blocking member 22; the spring block 23 is slidably connected to the mounting base 21; two guiding grooves 231 are symmetrically arranged on the spring block 23, and the distance between the two guiding grooves 231 near one end of the first sliding groove 12 is smaller than the distance from the end far away from the first sliding groove 12, and the two plug rods 221 are respectively slidably connected to the two guiding grooves 231; the stop and pass driving member 24 is used to drive the spring block 23 to approach or move away from the first sliding groove 12, so that the plug rods 221 slide away from or close to each other synchronously, so that the two blocking members 22 approach or separate from each other. In specific implementation, the stop and pass mechanism 2 blocks the discharge port 11. When the detection mechanism 3 needs to obtain the collection tube in the first sliding groove 12, the stop and pass mechanism 2 opens the discharge port 11 to facilitate the collection tube to enter the detection mechanism 3 from the first sliding groove 12. The setting of the stop and pass mechanism 2 improves the automation degree of the collection tube automatic sorting device 100 and also significantly enhances the orderliness of the tube dropping operation. More specifically, the stop and pass driving member 24 drives the spring block 23 to move along the extension direction of the first sliding groove 12. When the spring block 23 moves towards the first sliding groove 12, the distance between the two guiding grooves 231 facing the two plug rods 221 gradually increases, so as to push the two plug rods 221 to move away from each other. The plug rod 221 drives the blocking member 22 to rotate around the convex shaft 211, causing the ends of the two blocking members 22 close to the convex shaft 211 to gradually approach each other, so that the two blocking members 22 approach each other, and further making the gap between the two blocking members 22 less than or equal to the width of the collection tube to block the first sliding groove 12 and the detection mechanism 3, so that the collection tube cannot fall into the detection mechanism 3; when the spring block 23 moves away from the first sliding groove 12, the distance between the two guiding grooves 231 facing the two plug rods 221 gradually decreases, so as to push the two plug rods 221 to move closer to each other. The plug rod 221 drives the blocking member 22 to rotate around the convex shaft 211, causing the ends of the two blocking members 22 close to the convex shaft 211 to gradually move away from each other, so that the two blocking members 22 separate from each other, and further opening the discharge port 11 to connect the first sliding groove 12 and the detection mechanism 3, so that the collection tube falls into the detection mechanism 3 under the action of gravity.
[0058] Specifically, the blocking member 22 is an arc-shaped plate-like structure. When the two blocking members 22 are close to each other, the outer sides of the blocking members 22 form a smooth curved surface, and a concave space is formed between the two blocking members 22, facing away from the first chute 12. This creates a triangular, stable blocking space, stably blocking the collection tube while preventing wear on the outer surface of the collection tube. When the two blocking members 22 are separated from each other, a circular arc-shaped accommodation space is formed between the two blocking members 22, which adapts to the shape of the collection tube, effectively reducing friction and impact on the collection tube during the tube dropping process, thereby ensuring the quality and reliability of the collection tube.
[0059] In this embodiment, the stop drive member 24 can be a combination of a magnetic member and a spring, or a pneumatic cylinder. It is understood that in other embodiments, an electric cylinder, a hydraulic push rod, or other drive members can be used instead of the combination of a magnetic member and a spring or a pneumatic cylinder according to actual needs.
[0060] See also Figure 9-13 As shown, the detection mechanism 3 includes a label detection assembly 32 and a liquid level detection assembly 33. The label detection assembly 32 and the liquid level detection assembly 33 respectively detect the label information and liquid level information of the collection tube. The liquid level detection assembly 33 includes a liquid level detection sensor 331 and a lifting drive 332. The lifting drive 332 is used to drive the liquid level detection sensor 331 to perform a lifting action, so that the liquid level detection sensor 331 moves to the initial collection height corresponding to the collection tube, and then rises from the initial collection height to the liquid level position of the collection tube to record the liquid level height of the collection tube. The lengths of collection tubes of different specifications vary, resulting in different bottom heights of different collection tubes. It is understood that in this embodiment, the initial collection height is the height corresponding to the bottom of the collection tube. During specific implementation, the label detection component 32 obtains the specifications of the collection tube through the label information, and sends the initial collection height corresponding to the specifications to the liquid level detection component 33 according to the specifications of the collection tube, so that the lifting drive 332 drives the liquid level detection sensor 331 to rise from the bottom of the lifting drive 332 to the corresponding initial collection height. The liquid level detection sensor 331 starts to detect whether there is blood from the initial collection height, and continues to rise after blood is detected until no blood is detected. The signals generated by the liquid level detection sensor 331 when detecting blood and no blood are different. When the liquid level detection sensor 331 changes from a signal of detecting blood to a signal of no blood, the liquid level detection sensor 331 reaches the liquid surface position of the collection tube, and judges whether the blood in the collection tube meets the standard blood collection volume requirements based on the distance moved by the liquid level detection sensor 331.
[0061] In this embodiment, the lifting drive member 332 is a guide rod cylinder. It is understood that in other embodiments, a screw rod and motor combination, a hydraulic push rod or other drive members can be used to replace the guide rod cylinder.
[0062] Specifically, the detection mechanism 3 also includes: a clamping assembly 31; the clamping assembly 31 is provided at the end of the collection rack 1, and is used to clamp or release the collection tube; the label detection assembly 32 is provided on the periphery of the clamping assembly 31, and the liquid level detection assembly 33 is provided on the periphery of the clamping assembly 31. It can be understood that the collection rack 1 is located on the side of the guide outlet 11 away from the first chute 12. When the guide outlet 11 is open, the collection tube slides from the first chute 12 to the clamping assembly 31, and the clamping assembly 31 clamps the collection tube. After the label detection assembly 32 and the liquid level detection assembly 33 perform label and liquid level detection on the collection tube, the clamping assembly 31 releases the collection tube, allowing the collection tube to fall into the bin separation mechanism 4. The label detection component 32 can detect the label on the outer wall of the collection tube to identify the information on the label, and send the detected label information to the bin separation mechanism 4. The liquid level detection component 33 detects the liquid level height of the collection tube to determine whether the blood collected by the current collection tube meets the marked blood collection volume, and sends the detection result to the bin separation mechanism 4. The bin separation mechanism 4 transfers the collection tube to the corresponding storage bin 5 according to the label information and the liquid level height.
[0063] Specifically, the clamping assembly 31 includes: a mounting plate 311, two clamping members 312, two elastic members 313, an abutment member 314 and an opening and closing driving member 315; the mounting plate 311 is provided with two guide parts, which are symmetrical and horizontally arranged; the two clamping members 312 are symmetrically arranged, and the two clamping members 312 are respectively slidably connected to the two guide parts; the two ends of the elastic member 313 are respectively connected to the guide part and the clamping member 312, and the two elastic members 313 are used to drive the two clamping members 314 to open and close. The holding members 312 are brought closer together. The abutment member 314 is connected to the mounting plate 311 and is positioned between the two clamping members 312. The abutment member 314 has a tip 3141 and an expansion portion 3142. The tip 3141 has a smaller width than the expansion portion 3142. The opening and closing drive component 315 is used to drive the abutment member 314 to move vertically, causing the tip 3141 or the expansion portion 3142 to abut the two clamping members 312, thereby moving the two clamping members 312 closer to or further from each other. The two elastic members 313 elastically act to bring the two clamping members 312 closer together, ensuring that the two clamping members 312 have a clamping force to clamp the collection tube and are always in abutment with the abutment member 314. When the abutment 314 moves to the point where the tip 3141 is located between the two clamping members 312, the distance between the two clamping members 312 is small, and the edge of the tube cap of the collection tube can be supported on the top of the two clamping members 312, so that the label detection component 32 and the liquid level detection component 33 can detect the collection tube; when the abutment 314 moves to the expansion part 3142 and is located between the two clamping members 312, the expansion part 3142 props up the two clamping members 312, so that the two clamping members 312 are separated from each other, causing the collection tube to fall into the bin separation mechanism 4 under the action of gravity.
[0064] Specifically, an arc-shaped groove (not labeled in the figure) is provided at one end of the clamping member 312 close to the first sliding groove 12, and the arc-shaped grooves of the two clamping members 312 communicate with each other. The arc-shaped groove is arranged facing the first sliding groove 12 and can receive the collection tube sliding from the first sliding groove 12; and the arc-shaped groove is adapted to the outer shape of the collection tube body, which can prevent the outer wall of the collection tube from being scratched and can also provide buffering for the impact of the collection tube, ensuring the quality of the collection tube and the safety of the blood, thereby improving the reliability of the collection tube sorting process.
[0065] Specifically, the abutting member 314 is provided with a rack 3143, and the rack 3143 is arranged vertically; the opening and closing driving member 315 includes a gear 3151 and an opening and closing driving member 3152; the gear 3151 meshes with the rack 3143, and the opening and closing driving member 3152 is used to drive the gear 3151 to rotate. The opening and closing driving member 3152 drives the gear 3151 to rotate, and the gear 3151 drives the rack 3143 to move in the vertical direction, thereby driving the abutting member 314 to move in the vertical direction, so that the tip 3141 or the expansion part 3142 moves between the two clamping members 312. The rack 3143 and the gear 3151 are compact in structure, which is beneficial to saving the occupied space of the opening and closing driving member 315, reducing the volume of the clamping assembly 31, and improving the space utilization rate; and the transmission between the rack 3143 and the gear 3151 has an accurate linear displacement relationship, which can make the abutting member 314 move a corresponding distance accurately. Compared with structures such as pneumatic drive or belt drive, the rack 3143 and the gear 3151 are more suitable for small-distance movement control, can further reduce the volume of the clamping assembly 31, can also reduce the energy consumption of the opening and closing driving member 3152, and at the same time improve the response speed of the clamping member 312.
[0066] In this embodiment, the opening and closing driving member 3152 is a motor. It can be understood that in other embodiments, a rotary cylinder, a divider, or a motor can be used to replace the motor.
[0067] Specifically, the label detection assembly 32 includes a plurality of label detection sensors 321, and the plurality of label detection sensors 321 are spaced apart and distributed on the outer periphery of the clamping assembly 31. More specifically, the label detection sensors 321 analyze the label information by detecting and identifying the identification code on the collection tube label, and the label information includes patient information, detection items, and initial collection height. The setting of the multiple label detection sensors 321 is beneficial to avoiding the randomness of the label pasting position on the collection tube. The multiple label detection sensors 321 are spaced apart and distributed on the outer periphery of the clamping assembly 31, and can cover all directions of the circumference of the collection tube. No matter where the label is pasted on the collection tube, it can be detected by at least one sensor, greatly improving the comprehensiveness and accuracy of label detection.
[0068] See Figure 14-16As shown in the figure, the binning mechanism 4 includes: a sorting rack 41 and at least one sorting component 42; the sorting rack 41 is inclined, with the end closer to the detection mechanism 3 being higher than the other end, and the sorting rack 41 is provided with a second chute 411; the sorting component 42 is arranged in the second chute 411 and can block or conduct the second chute 411; the storage bin 5 is correspondingly arranged below the sorting component 42, and the collection tube can fall into the storage bin 5 along the second chute 411 through the sorting component 42. After the detection mechanism 3 detects the information of the collection tube, it controls the corresponding sorting component 42 to open the second chute 411 according to the information of the collection tube, so that the collection tube entering the second chute 411 from the detection mechanism 3 slides to the sorting component 42 and then falls into the storage bin 5 below the sorting component 42 through the sorting component 42. The coordinated cooperation between the sorting component 42 and the detection mechanism 3 replaces the manual detection and sorting operations, greatly improving the binning efficiency of the collection tubes and further avoiding the influence of manual operation errors on the binning effect and accuracy.
[0069] Specifically, the number of storage bins 5 is several, and several grooves 412 are symmetrically arranged on the inner side wall of the second chute 411; several storage bins 5 are respectively arranged corresponding to the grooves 412, and the storage bins 5 are slidably arranged below the grooves 412; the number of sorting components is several, and several sorting components 42 are arranged at intervals along the second chute 411; the sorting component 42 includes a gantry 421 and a rotation driving member 422; the gantry 421 is movably connected to the groove 412, and the inner wall of the gantry 421 is flush with the inner wall of the second chute 411, and the rotation driving member 422 is used to drive the gantry 421 to rotate to open and close the groove 412. More specifically, the width of the second chute 411 is smaller than the diameter of the tube cap of the collection tube and larger than the diameter of the tube body, the bottom of the collection tube cap is supported on the edge of the second chute 411, the sum of the depth of the groove 412 and the width of the second chute 411 is larger than the diameter of the collection tube cap, and the collection tube can fall into the storage bin 5 when it enters the groove 412. The end of the sorting rack 41 closer to the detection mechanism 3 is higher than the other end, so that the second chute 411 forms an inclined angle, ensuring that the collection tube can naturally slide along the second chute 411 to the corresponding sorting component 42, so as to facilitate the sorting component 42 to open the groove 412 to make the collection tube fall into the corresponding storage bin 5. In the initial state, the bottom of the gantry 421 is embedded in the groove 412. When it is necessary to open the groove 412, the rotation driving member 422 drives the gantry 421 to rotate, so that the bottom of the end of the gantry 421 closer to the detection mechanism 3 rotates upward to leave the groove 412, so that the collection tube slides into the groove 412 and falls from the groove 412 into the storage bin 5. It can be understood that the storage bin 5 can be divided according to detection items, patient information, whether the blood is up to standard, etc. The binning mechanism 4 classifies the collection tubes according to the division criteria of the storage bin 5 and the information of the collection tubes to drive the collection tubes to fall into the corresponding storage bin 5.
[0070] In this embodiment, the rotary driving member 422 is a motor. It can be understood that in other embodiments, a rotary cylinder, a divider, or a motor can be used to replace the motor.
[0071] Specifically, the gantry 421 includes two bottom rods 4211 and a frame 4213 connecting the two bottom rods 4211. The bottom of the frame 4213 is open. The bottom rods 4211 extend along the direction of the second chute 411. The projected length of the bottom rods 4211 on the second chute 411 is greater than the projected length of the frame 4213 on the second chute 411. The distance between the two bottom rods 4211 is equal to the groove width of the second chute 411. A perforation 4212 is provided on one of the bottom rods 4211. The output shaft of the rotary driving member 422 passes through and is connected to the perforation 4212. The rotary driving member 422 is used to drive the end of the bottom rod 4211 close to the detection mechanism 3 to embed into or leave the groove 412. In the initial state, the two bottom rods 4211 are respectively embedded in two symmetric grooves 412. When it is necessary to open the groove 412, the rotary driving member 422 drives one of the bottom rods 4211 to rotate. The bottom rod 4211 drives the frame 4213 to rotate, and then drives the other bottom rod 4211 to rotate, so that the ends of the two bottom rods 4211 close to the detection mechanism 3 both leave the groove 412, so that the collection tube falls from the groove 412 into the storage bin 5. The length of the frame 4213 is less than the length of the bottom rod 4211, providing sufficient space between the bottom rod 4211 and the inner wall of the groove 412, enabling the bottom rod 4211 to rotate freely within a specified angle range, preventing the frame 4213 from restricting the rotation range of the bottom rod 4211, and preventing interference between the frame 4213 and the inner wall of the groove 412 during the rotation of the bottom rod 4211, ensuring the smooth progress of the synchronous rotation action of the two bottom rods 4211.
[0072] Specifically, a falling port 413 is further provided at the end of the second chute 411, and a storage bin 5 is provided below the falling port 413. There is no need to set up a sorting component 42 on the falling port 413. When the collection tube does not meet the division standard of the storage bin 5 under the sorting component 42, all sorting components 42 do not need to open the groove 412. The collection tube slides along the second chute 411 to the falling port 413 and enters the storage bin 5 below the falling port 413 from the falling port 413. The setting of the falling port 413 reduces the number of sorting components 42, reduces the energy consumption of the bin-dividing mechanism 4, and at the same time reduces the opening and blocking links, improving the sorting efficiency of the collection tube.
[0073] Specifically, the bin-dividing mechanism 4 further includes a material-blocking component 43; the material-blocking component 43 is connected to the sorting rack 41; the material-blocking component 43 includes a baffle 431 and a material-blocking driving part 432; the baffle 431 is arranged below the second chute 411 and is slidably connected to the sorting rack 41, and the material-blocking driving part 432 is used to drive the baffle 431 to move along the sorting rack 41 so that the collection tube stays at a predetermined position of the second chute 411. The material-blocking component 43 is used to ensure the accuracy of the collection tube entering the corresponding sorting component 42. Specifically, during implementation, the baffle 431 can move to the rear end of the corresponding sorting component 42 when the clamping component 31 releases the collection tube to prevent the collection tube from entering the next sorting component 42; or it can move in front of the corresponding sorting component 42 before the clamping component 31 releases the collection tube to block the collection tube falling into the second chute 411 from entering the corresponding sorting component 42. After ensuring that the open groove 412 of the gantry 421 of the corresponding sorting component 42 is open, it then moves to the rear end of the sorting component 42 so that the collection tube slowly enters the groove 412 and falls into the storage bin 5, preventing the collection tube from being thrown out of the designated storage bin 5 due to large inertia when suddenly falling.
[0074] In this embodiment, the material-blocking driving part 432 is a guide rod cylinder. It can be understood that in other embodiments, a combination of a lead screw and a motor, a hydraulic push rod, or other driving parts can be used to replace the guide rod cylinder.
[0075] Specifically, the collection tube automatic sorting device 100 of this embodiment further includes: a chassis 6; the collection rack 1, the stop-and-pass mechanism 2, the detection mechanism 3, the bin-dividing mechanism 4, and the storage bin 5 are arranged inside the chassis 6; a collection port 61 is provided at the top of the chassis 6, and the first chute 12 is arranged below the collection port 61; a through hole 62 is provided on the side wall of the chassis 6, and the storage bin 5 is arranged corresponding to the through hole 62 and is slidably connected to the chassis 6. The setting of the chassis 6 ensures the cleanliness of the internal structure, and further ensures that the collection tube sorting environment meets the high requirements of hygiene standards; the collection port 61 provides an operating space for medical staff, facilitating the medical staff to put the collection tubes into the collection tube automatic sorting device 100 for the automatic sorting work of the collection tubes, greatly improving the efficiency of the collection tube sorting, reducing the dependence on manual labor for the collection tube sorting work, and further reducing the risk of sorting misoperation; the storage bin 5 is a drawer-type container and is slidably connected to the chassis 6, facilitating the medical staff to easily pull it out to take out the collection tubes in the storage bin 5, greatly enhancing the convenience of use of the storage bin 5.

At the same time, automatic sorting reduces manual intervention, lowers the uncertainty and risk of misoperation during the operation, and enhances the stability and reliability of the collection work. In addition, the combination of the collection vehicle and the automatic sorting device 100 for collection tubes helps medical staff conveniently move the automatic sorting device 100 for collection tubes to achieve the sorting operation of collection tubes in multiple scenarios, especially suitable for blood collection operations in wards, reducing the burden of manual operation, saving time and energy, improving patient satisfaction and medical quality, and reducing the risk of classification errors, greatly increasing the automation level of the collection vehicle, and thus improving the sorting efficiency of collection tubes.
[0079] Preferably, the number of the automatic sorting devices 100 for collection tubes is several, and several automatic sorting devices 100 for collection tubes are arranged in parallel or symmetrically.
