Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of syringe processing devices, and in particular to a syringe processing device for a dispensing machine. Background Art
[0002] A syringe is a common medical device, which consists of a syringe with a hole at the front end and a piston core rod that matches it. The main purpose of a syringe is to draw liquid medicine or liquid medicine into the body. The principle is to use the thrust of the piston to inject the liquid medicine in the needle into the patient's body.
[0003] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the syringe 6 includes a syringe 61, a needle 62 and a needle cap 63. The needle cap 63 is clamped on the syringe 61, and the needle cap 63 covers the needle 62. The outer peripheral surface of the syringe 61 is connected with a convex edge 611. The needle cap needs to be removed before the syringe is used, and then the syringe needs to be recycled or discarded. If it is directly discarded without being destroyed, it will be polluting, dangerous and infectious. The existing classification is mostly done manually, by cutting off the needle part of the syringe with scissors, and then collecting the needle and syringe in turn, which is inefficient and needs to be improved. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a syringe processing device for a dispensing machine in order to improve the efficiency of collecting needles and syringes.
[0005] A syringe processing device for a dispensing machine provided in the present application adopts the following technical solution: it includes a processing box and a robotic arm, the robotic arm is located on one side of the processing box, the robotic arm is connected to a clamping structure, the processing box is provided with a first collecting channel and a second collecting channel, the processing box is connected to a cap-pulling piece for pulling out the needle cap, the cap-pulling piece corresponds to the first collecting channel, the processing box is connected to a cutting piece for cutting off the needle, the cutting piece corresponds to the second collecting channel, and the robotic arm is used to move the syringe from the cap-pulling piece to the cutting piece.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the clamping structure clamps the unused syringe, the mechanical arm moves to the cap-pulling piece, the syringe pulls off the needle cap through the cap-pulling piece, and the needle cap falls into the first collection channel under the influence of gravity, which is convenient for collecting the needle cap. The mechanical arm drives the syringe to move to other places for use. After the syringe is used, the mechanical arm drives the syringe to move to the cutting piece, and the cutting piece cuts off the needle. The needle falls into the second collection channel under the influence of gravity, which is convenient for collecting the needle; the mechanical arm drives the syringe to move to the top of the first collection channel, and the clamping structure loosens the used syringe, so that the syringe falls into the first collection channel, which is convenient for collecting the syringe; the automated use and cutting of needles improves the collection efficiency of needle caps, needles and syringes.
[0007] Optionally, the capping member comprises a capping plate connected to the processing box, the capping plate is used to abut against the needle cap, and the capping plate is provided with a clearance groove for partially inserting the syringe.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the mechanical arm drives the syringe to move, so that part of the syringe barrel is stuck in the clearance groove, and the needle cap is now located below the cap removal plate. The mechanical arm drives the syringe to move upward, the needle cap abuts against the cap removal plate, the needle cap separates from the syringe barrel, and the needle cap falls into the first collection channel under the influence of gravity, which is convenient for collecting the needle cap. The needle passes through the clearance groove, and the clearance groove provides space for the movement of the needle.
[0009] Optionally, the cap-pulling plate is provided with two guide surfaces, the two guide surfaces are located at the openings of the give-way groove, and the distance between the two guide surfaces decreases step by step toward the direction approaching the give-way groove.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, when the robot arm drives the syringe to move, the two guide surfaces guide the movement of the syringe, so that part of the syringe barrel can be smoothly inserted into the clearance groove.
[0011] Optionally, the processing box is connected to a blocking plate, the blocking plate is used to block the first collecting channel and the second collecting channel, the blocking plate is provided with a clearance hole for the needle to pass through, and the clearance hole corresponds to the second collecting channel.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, when the needle needs to be cut off, the robotic arm drives the needle through the clearance hole and moves to the cutting piece. The cutting piece cuts off the needle, and the blocking plate restricts the movement of the needle, thereby reducing the situation where the needle flies to the first collection channel under the impact force of the cutting piece.
[0013] Optionally, the baffle plate is provided with an inclined surface, and an end of the inclined surface close to the first collecting channel is located between the first collecting channel and an end of the inclined surface away from the first collecting channel.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when the needle is cut off, the clamping structure can release the syringe, and the syringe falls on the inclined surface under the influence of gravity, and moves along the inclined surface toward the first collection channel, so that the syringe falls smoothly into the first collection channel. The step of the mechanical arm driving the syringe to move above the first collection channel is omitted, thereby improving the efficiency of collecting syringes.
[0015] Optionally, the robotic arm is provided with a limiting groove for cooperating with the convex edge of the syringe.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, when the clamping structure clamps the syringe, the convex edge of the syringe is inserted into the limiting groove, and the inner wall of the limiting groove fits with the convex edge of the syringe. The inner wall of the limiting groove limits the vertical movement of the convex edge, thereby improving the stability of the syringe placed on the robotic arm.
[0017] Optionally, the processing box is connected to a force-bearing rod for abutting against the syringe.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, after the clamping structure releases the syringe, the inner wall of the limiting groove restricts the movement of the syringe because the convex edge of the syringe is stuck in the limiting groove, so that the syringe is not easy to separate from the mechanical arm. The mechanical arm drives the syringe to move to the force-bearing rod, so that the syringe abuts against the force-bearing rod, the clamping structure releases the syringe, and the mechanical arm drives the syringe to move away from the mechanical arm. The force-bearing rod blocks the movement of the syringe, so that the convex edge of the syringe separates from the limiting groove, that is, the syringe separates from the mechanical arm, which is convenient for collecting the syringe.
[0019] Optionally, there are at least two stress-bearing rods.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, when the robotic arm drives the syringe to move in a direction away from the robotic arm, the syringe abuts against multiple force-bearing rods at the same time, thereby improving the force balance of the syringe and facilitating the convex edge of the syringe to escape from the limiting groove.
[0021] Optionally, the processing box is slidably connected to a baffle plate for covering the first collecting channel and the second collecting channel, and the processing box is connected to a driving member for driving the baffle plate to slide toward or away from the first collecting channel.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, when the needle cap, needle and syringe are not collected, the driving member drives the baffle to slide in the direction close to the first channel, so that the baffle covers the first channel and the second channel, reducing the airflow inside and outside the dispensing machine and reducing pollution.
[0023] Optionally, the processing box is connected to a guide block, and the baffle is provided with a guide groove for slidingly cooperating with the guide block.
[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, when the baffle slides, the baffle slides along the guide block, and the sliding cooperation between the guide block and the guide groove guides and limits the sliding of the baffle, thereby improving the sliding stability of the baffle.
[0025] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0026] 1. The robotic arm drives the syringe to move to the cutting piece, which cuts off the needle. The needle falls into the second collection channel under the influence of gravity, which is convenient for collecting the needle; the robotic arm drives the syringe to move above the first collection channel, and the clamping structure releases the used syringe, so that the syringe falls into the first collection channel, which is convenient for collecting the syringe; the automated use and cutting of needles improves the collection efficiency of needle caps, needles and syringes.
[0027] 2. When the robotic arm drives the syringe to move in a direction away from the robotic arm, the syringe abuts against multiple force-bearing rods at the same time, thereby improving the force balance of the syringe and facilitating the convex edge of the syringe to escape from the limiting groove.

[0045] The implementation principle of a syringe processing device for a dispensing machine in the embodiment of the present application is as follows:
