DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0023] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 1-3 A solid waste storage, disinfection and environmental control robot comprises a storage box 1, and a mobile chassis 15 is arranged at the bottom of the storage box 1. The function of the mobile chassis 15 is to control the movement of the entire storage box 1. Medical staff can control the robot to move to a designated area according to the use needs, and the portability is improved.

[0024] The internal space of the storage box 1 is divided into a storage area 5 on the left, a disinfection area 6 in the middle, and a receiving area 7 on the right. A storage bucket for storing waste is placed in the storage area 5. A disinfection box 2 is arranged on the top of the storage box 1, and the disinfection box 2 is connected to the disinfection area 6 below. The top of the receiving area 7 is reserved for delivery.

[0025] A disinfection cover 4 is installed in the disinfection box 2 through a pneumatic rod 3. The disinfection cover 4 extends downward into the disinfection area 6. A number of disinfection nozzles are arranged on the inner surface of the disinfection cover 4. The disinfection cover 4 is raised and lowered by the pneumatic rod 3. When the disinfection cover 4 is lowered into the disinfection area 6, the solid waste can be disinfected and sterilized.

[0026] The upper half of the inner wall of the front and rear sides of the disinfection area 6 and the receiving area 7 are provided with a screw mechanism, which includes a screw rod 8, a motor 9 and a nut pair 10. The nut pair 10 is threadedly adapted to the screw rod 8, and the rotation of the screw rod 8 is controlled by the drive of the motor 9. The nut pairs 10 provided on the screw mechanisms on both sides are connected by a connecting plate 11. The front and rear screw mechanisms maintain a synchronous starting working state, thereby ensuring that the nut pairs 10 on both sides have stability when translating, and are ultimately used to ensure that the middle connecting plate 11 can move back and forth stably.

[0027] The lower half of the inner wall of the disinfection area 6 and the front and rear sides of the receiving area 7 are provided with guide grooves 14, and sliding wheels 16 are slidably fitted in the guide grooves 14. The design of the guide grooves 14 needs to be specifically described, as shown in the attached Figure 1As shown, the guide groove 14 is composed of two upper and lower straight grooves and an inclined groove for connecting the two straight grooves, wherein the straight groove on the right is located at the top.

[0028] Both ends of the connecting plate 11 are respectively equipped with sliding columns 12 in a vertical sliding manner, and the lower end of the sliding column 12 is connected to the sliding wheel 16 on the corresponding side.

[0029] Since the connecting plate 11 can translate back and forth stably, and the sliding wheels 16 at the bottom of the two sliding columns 12 can slide along the corresponding guide grooves 14, the sliding wheels 16 gradually slide into the straight grooves at a low position during the translation of the connecting plate 11 from right to left, and the position of the sliding columns 12 relative to the connecting plate 11 also gradually decreases.

[0030] The upper ends of the two sliding columns 12 are fixedly installed under the same storage component 13. When the sliding column 12 is at the far right, the storage component 13 is also at the highest point. At this time, the storage component 13 extends from the top opening of the receiving area 7 to facilitate the placement of solid waste; when the sliding column 12 slides to the left and is in a low straight groove, the storage component 13 gradually lowers its height and finally completely enters the disinfection area 6 of the storage box 1.

[0031] Here, it should be noted that Figure 1 A clearance gap is reserved on the side of the disinfection box 2 corresponding to the receiving area 7 for the storage assembly 13 to move horizontally.

[0032] The storage assembly 13 includes a base plate 17 and a storage box 19. The storage box 19 is mounted on the base plate 17. The upper storage box 19 and the lower base plate 17 are connected to each other by a movable arm assembly. The upper storage box 19 is flipped on the base plate 17 by the movable arm assembly.

[0033] The structure of the storage assembly 13 is specifically described as shown in the attached Figure 3 As shown, the storage assembly 13 is composed of a base plate 17, a mounting seat 18, a storage box 19 and a movable arm assembly. The mounting seat 18 is arranged in a step-like manner on the front side of the base plate 17, and a pad for supporting the storage box 19 is arranged on the rear side of the base plate 17.

[0034] The movable arm assembly is arranged on both sides of the storage assembly 13, and the structure of the movable arm assembly is specifically described. The movable arm assembly includes two first movable arms 20 and two second movable arms 21. The first movable arms 20 are arranged crosswise in a clamp-arm style. The front ends of the two first movable arms 20 are respectively rotatably mounted on the front side of the storage box 19 and the front side of the mounting seat 18. The rear ends of the two first movable arms 20 are respectively rotatably connected to a second movable arm 21. The rear ends of the two second movable arms 21 are respectively rotatably mounted on the rear side of the storage box 19 and the rear side of the mounting seat 18. It should be clear that one of the first movable arms 20 is an active arm, and its rotation is controlled by an external power motor to ultimately achieve the deformation of the entire movable arm assembly.

[0035] When the storage box 19 moves to the bottom of the disinfection cover 4, the disinfection cover 4 can be controlled to move downward and completely cover the storage box 19, and then disinfection is carried out. After the disinfection is completed, the disinfection cover 4 is lifted to a high position, and then the movable arm assembly is controlled to deform and the storage box 19 begins to tip over. The left outlet of the storage box 19 is aligned with the storage bucket, and the right side of the storage box 19 is lifted, so that the medical solid waste that has been disinfected can be automatically put into the storage bucket. After the placement is completed, the storage box 19 is restored to its original position for the next solid waste placement and disinfection.

[0036] The environment control robot also has a single-chip microcomputer inside, and the single-chip microcomputer can be programmed in advance according to the needs of use to control the translation, flipping and disinfection process of the storage box 19.

[0037] Finally, it is worth mentioning that in order to isolate the storage box 1 from the external environment, movable baffles can be provided at the opening of the receiving area 7 and the avoidance gap of the side wall of the disinfection box 2 to play the role of closing the box.

[0038] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention according to the technical scheme and the utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
