Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of material conveying technology, and in particular to a high-efficiency material conveying device for operating rooms. Background Technology
[0002] The supplies needed during surgery mainly include medical equipment and sterile items, which are usually prepared in advance by the hospital operating room according to the type of surgery. They are then transported to the operating room by medical staff using trolleys. This transportation method requires strict separation of contaminated, clean, and sterile areas for all supplies, employing a unidirectional circulation design to avoid cross-infection. The transport channel for sterilized surgical instruments must be physically separated from the medical waste channel, sometimes even requiring the use of a dedicated elevator. The entire process is not only inefficient but also easily affected by human factors, resulting in low material safety. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The technical problem that this invention aims to solve is that the current material transportation process is not only inefficient, but also easily affected by human factors, resulting in low material safety.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve its technical problem is: a high-efficiency material conveying device for operating rooms, including a closed top-mounted conveying pipe installed on the ceiling of the medical system and an internal guide box for conveying materials. The lower end of the closed top-mounted conveying pipe is fixedly equipped with a longitudinally positioned lifting guide pipe connected to its interior. Electrically controlled longitudinal guide mechanisms are symmetrically installed on the inner walls on both sides of the longitudinally positioned lifting guide pipe. An electrically controlled bottom-mounted lifting cover plate is installed at the lower opening of the longitudinally positioned lifting guide pipe. An electrically controlled flipping side guide plate is movably installed on the side wall of the electrically controlled longitudinal guide mechanism.
[0005] The lower end of the closed top-mounted conveying pipe is located at the assembly end of the longitudinally placed lifting guide pipe and has a bottom guide port.
[0006] The longitudinal lifting guide pipe includes a longitudinal feeding pipe located at the lower opening of the bottom feeding port and a side feeding cover fixed on both sides of the longitudinal feeding pipe. The side feeding cover closes the bottom feeding port from both sides and is fixedly connected to the closed top conveying pipe.
[0007] The electrically controlled longitudinal material guiding mechanism includes a side-mounted electrically controlled conveyor belt installed inside the side-mounted material guiding cover and a lateral support plate fixed to the outside of the side-mounted electrically controlled conveyor belt.
[0008] The electrically controlled bottom lifting cover plate includes a longitudinal lifting rod fixed on the inner side of the side guide cover, a bottom lifting cover plate fixed at the bottom extension end of the longitudinal lifting rod, and an electrically controlled translation push plate installed on the inner bottom surface of the bottom lifting cover plate.
[0009] The electrically controlled flip-type side guide plate includes a flip support frame movably installed on the outer side of the side guide cover and a side flip support rod for controlling the flip support frame.
[0010] An embedded top positioning module is fixedly installed on the inner top surface of the closed top-mounted material conveying pipe.
[0011] An embedded optical recognition module is fixedly installed on the top surface of the closed top conveying pipe, corresponding to the bottom guide port position.
[0012] The lower surface of the bottom lifting cover is fixedly fitted with a downwardly protruding embedded strip guide rail. The electrically controlled translation push plate includes an electrically controlled lead screw installed inside the embedded strip guide rail, an internally threaded translation block threaded onto the electrically controlled lead screw, a bottom control frame fixed to the upper end of the internally threaded translation block, and an embedded infrared positioning module fixed to the side wall of the bottom control frame.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0015] (1) The high-efficiency material conveying equipment for operating rooms of the present invention adopts a closed conveying method, which can quickly introduce the materials required for surgery into the required operating room without the need for frequent manual entry and exit of the operating room, thus greatly improving safety;
[0016] (2) By fixing the longitudinal lifting guide pipe at the bottom guide port of the closed top conveying pipe, the internal guide box can be lifted and lowered by the electric control longitudinal guide mechanism inside the longitudinal lifting guide pipe. Materials can be quickly introduced into the operating room through the internal guide box, and waste inside the operating room can be discharged outward.
[0017] (3) An electrically controlled bottom lifting cover is installed at the lower opening of the longitudinal lifting guide pipe, which can ensure the cleanliness of the operating room during idle time and facilitate the loading and unloading of materials;
[0018] (4) An electrically controlled flip-type side guide plate is movably mounted on the side wall of the side guide cover, which can improve the bottom support and stability of the internal guide box during material feeding;

[0025] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the invention.
[0026] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected" and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.
[0027] Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The illustrated high-efficiency material conveying equipment for operating rooms includes a closed top-mounted conveying pipe 1 installed on the ceiling of the medical system and an internal guide box 2 for conveying materials. The lower end of the closed top-mounted conveying pipe 1 is fixedly equipped with a longitudinally positioned lifting guide pipe 3 connected to its interior. Electrically controlled longitudinal guide mechanisms 4 are symmetrically installed on the inner walls on both sides of the longitudinally positioned lifting guide pipe 3. An electrically controlled bottom-mounted lifting cover plate 5 is installed at the lower opening of the longitudinally positioned lifting guide pipe 3. Electrically controlled flip-type lateral guide plates 6 are movably installed on the side walls of the electrically controlled longitudinal guide mechanism 4.
[0028] The internal guide box 2 is conveyed inside the closed top conveying pipe 1. The conveying method of the internal guide box 2 can be self-propelled or driven by the guiding mechanism installed inside the closed top conveying pipe 1, depending on the actual scenario.
[0029] When the internal guide box 2 carrying the materials is conveyed to the upper opening of the longitudinal lifting guide tube 3, the electrically controlled longitudinal guiding mechanism 4 drives the internal guide box 2 to descend to the upper end of the electrically controlled bottom lifting cover plate 5 at the lower opening of the longitudinal lifting guide tube 3. Then, the electrically controlled bottom lifting cover plate 5 lowers to disengage the internal guide box 2 from the interior of the longitudinal lifting guide tube 3. At the same time, it controls the electrically controlled flipping side guide plate 6 to flip downwards to be parallel with the electrically controlled bottom lifting cover plate 5. Then, the electrically controlled bottom lifting cover plate 5 pushes the internal guide box 2 horizontally to the upper end of the electrically controlled flipping side guide plate 6. Finally, the electrically controlled bottom lifting cover plate 5 lifts upwards to close the lower opening of the longitudinal lifting guide tube 3, completing the unloading process.
[0030] If the operating room needs to simultaneously meet the requirements of material transportation and waste recycling, multiple vertical lifting guide pipes 3 can be installed, one specifically for material delivery and one specifically for waste recycling, to avoid cross-infection.
[0031] To facilitate bottom material feeding, the lower end of the closed top conveying pipe 1 is provided with a bottom side material feeding port at the assembly end of the longitudinal lifting material feeding pipe 3.
[0032] To facilitate the longitudinal material guide, the longitudinal lifting material guide pipe 3 includes a longitudinal material discharge pipe 31 located at the lower opening of the bottom material guide port and a side material guide cover 32 fixed on both sides of the longitudinal material discharge pipe 31. The side material guide cover 32 closes the bottom material guide port from both sides and is fixedly connected to the closed top conveying pipe 1.
[0033] The upper opening of the vertical feeding pipe 31 is fixedly connected to the lower opening of the bottom guide port, while the side guide cover 32 is fixedly connected to the openings on both sides of the bottom guide port.
[0034] To facilitate the electric adjustment and lifting, the electric vertical guide mechanism 4 includes a side-mounted electric conveyor belt 41 installed inside the side guide cover 32 and a lateral support plate 42 fixed to the outside of the side-mounted electric conveyor belt 41.
[0035] The side-mounted electrically controlled conveyor belt 41 is driven by the drive wheel at the bottom, which is the existing technology. The drive wheel drives the outer conveyor belt to move, thereby driving the lateral support plate 42 fixed on the outer side of the conveyor belt to support and lift the bottom side of the inner guide box 2 on both sides.
[0036] To facilitate lifting adjustment and electrically controlled translation, the electrically controlled bottom lifting cover 5 includes a longitudinal lifting rod 51 fixed on the inner side of the side guide cover 32, a bottom lifting cover 52 fixed at the bottom protruding end of the longitudinal lifting rod 51, and an electrically controlled translation push plate 53 installed on the inner bottom surface of the bottom lifting cover 52.
[0037] The extended end of the longitudinal lifting rod 51 is fixed to the upper surface of the bottom lifting cover plate 52. The height of the bottom lifting cover plate 52 is adjusted by extension and retraction, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the bottom guide port.
[0038] The electrically controlled translation push plate 53 is used to push the internal guide box 2 on the upper surface of the bottom lifting cover plate 52 to translate.
[0039] To facilitate the electronically controlled flipping, a horizontal support frame is formed on the outside. The electronically controlled flipping side guide plate 6 includes a flipping support frame 61 movably mounted on the outer side of the side guide cover 32 and a side flipping strut 62 for controlling the flipping support frame 61.
[0040] The side-mounted flipping support frame 61 is controlled to flip outward by telescopic extension. When idle, it is longitudinally horizontal with the outside of the side-mounted guide cover 32. When working, it forms a platform on the side of the lower opening of the longitudinal lifting guide tube 3 to support the internal guide box 2, which facilitates the placement of the internal guide box 2.
[0041] To facilitate the positioning of the topmost lateral support plate 42, an embedded top positioning module 7 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the enclosed top conveying pipe 1.
[0042] The embedded top positioning module 7 is an optical ranging probe, which is existing technology. It determines whether the position of the topmost side support plate 42 is level with the bottom surface of the closed top conveying pipe 1 by detecting its distance from the top side support plate 42, without affecting the normal translation of the internal guide box 2 inside the closed top conveying pipe 1.
[0043] In order to facilitate optical identification of the position of the internal guide box 2 and the type of materials inside during the conveying process, thereby facilitating positioning, an embedded optical identification module 8 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the enclosed top conveying pipe 1, corresponding to the bottom guide port position.
[0044] The embedded optical recognition module 8 performs a downward optical scan to locate the position of the internal guide box 2. While scanning the material inside the internal guide box 2, the module determines whether the material is the required material for that location within the operating room. If it is, the embedded optical recognition module 8 activates the side-mounted electrically controlled conveyor belt 41. The lateral support plate 42 on the outside of the side-mounted electrically controlled conveyor belt 41 supports the internal guide box 2 as it descends until it is placed on the electrically controlled bottom lifting cover. The electrically controlled bottom lifting cover then lowers to open the lower opening of the longitudinal lifting guide tube 3. The electrically controlled bottom lifting cover 5 then pushes the internal guide box 2 horizontally onto the downward-flipped electrically controlled flip-type side guide plate 6. This not only facilitates retrieval but also allows the electrically controlled bottom lifting cover 5 to electrically reset and close the lower opening of the longitudinal lifting guide tube 3, ensuring the airtightness of the operating room.
[0045] To facilitate electronic adjustment, the lower surface of the bottom lifting cover plate 52 is fixedly equipped with a downwardly protruding embedded strip guide rail 521. The electronically controlled translation push plate 53 includes an electronically controlled lead screw 531 installed inside the embedded strip guide rail 521, an internally threaded translation block 532 threaded onto the electronically controlled lead screw 531, a bottom side control frame 533 fixed to the upper end of the internally threaded translation block 532, and an embedded infrared positioning module 534 fixed to the side wall of the bottom side control frame 533.
[0046] The lead screw 531 rotates, thereby driving the internal thread translation block 532 to move and adjust along the embedded strip guide rail 521. This, in turn, causes the bottom control frame 533 to slide and adjust on the bottom lifting cover plate 52. The embedded infrared positioning module 534 performs optical ranging to monitor the placement position of the internal material guide box 2, thus facilitating automatic control.
[0047] To facilitate ultraviolet sterilization, an ultraviolet LED sterilization lamp 9 is fixedly installed at the included angle position on the inner side of the longitudinally placed lifting guide tube 3.
[0048] While the electrically controlled longitudinal material guiding mechanism 4 drives the internal material guiding box 2 to rise and fall inside the longitudinal lifting material guiding tube 3, the ultraviolet LED sterilization lamp 9 is automatically activated. It emits ultraviolet light to sterilize and disinfect the materials inside the internal material guiding box 2. It can also be activated to sterilize and disinfect the inner wall of the longitudinal lifting material guiding tube 3 when idle, thus completing self-maintenance.
[0049] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of the present invention, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the inventive concept. The technical scope of this invention is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
