Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical product processing equipment, and more specifically, to a pipe and valve feeding mechanism. Background Art
[0002] In the production process of medical supplies, tube and valve components, as an important part of fluid control systems, are widely used in various medical devices, drug delivery systems and life support devices. The accuracy, reliability and sterility of these tube and valve components are directly related to the overall quality of medical supplies and patient safety. The loading of tubes and valves is crucial to ensuring product quality and production efficiency. Traditional tube and valve loading methods in medical supply processing equipment mainly rely on manual operation or simple mechanical devices.
[0003] For example, the authorization announcement number CN217126176 U discloses a pipe loading device, which includes a frame and a pipe. A feeding mechanism for the pipe to enter is provided on one side of the frame, and a power source for moving left and right is provided on the feeding mechanism. A feeding mechanism for moving up and down is provided under the frame, and the power source is a first cylinder.
[0004] In the above, the pipe valve is pushed by the cylinder, but it often lacks flexibility and precision during the loading process. The movement trajectory and force of the cylinder are usually fixed, and it is difficult to adjust according to the actual situation of the pipe valve. This may lead to inaccurate positioning of the pipe valve, damage caused by excessive thrust, or inability to load due to insufficient thrust during the loading process, resulting in slow production efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention aims to provide a pipe and valve feeding mechanism that improves production efficiency.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:
[0007] It includes a workbench, which is equipped with a feeding pipe for feeding the material through a pipe valve, a material transmission part, a material transfer part, a material grabbing part and a material pushing part.
[0008] The material transfer part is placed between the feeding pipe and the material transfer part, and the material transfer part and the material pushing part are placed on both sides of the material transfer part respectively.
[0009] The material transfer parts include a base frame placed on the workbench, a cylinder placed on the base frame, and a receiving plate. The output end of the cylinder is connected to the receiving plate, and the receiving plate and the feeding pipe are horizontally distributed.
[0010] The material transfer part includes a support frame placed on the workbench, a first stepper motor and a rotating disk placed on the support frame, the rotating disk is placed above the support frame, and the bottom surface of the rotating disk is connected to the output end of the first stepper motor.
[0011] There are several placing plates on the rotating disk. The placing plates are distributed around the center of the rotating disk as the reference point. The placing plates are distributed horizontally with the receiving plate.
[0012] The pusher includes a second stepper motor and a crawler. The output end of the second stepper motor is connected to the crawler. The crawler is provided with a plurality of fixed plates. The fixed plates are placed above the crawler.
[0013] The material grabbing component includes a first base placed on the workbench, a first manipulator placed on the first base, a second base placed on the workbench, and a second manipulator placed on the second base. The first manipulator is placed on one side of the material receiving plate so that the output end of the first manipulator can grab the pipe and valve on the material receiving plate to the placement plate. The second manipulator is placed above the rotating disk so that the output end of the second manipulator can grab the pipe and valve on the placement plate to the fixed plate.
[0014] The utility model is further configured as follows: the material receiving plate, the storage plate and the fixed plate are all provided with connecting grooves and positioning grooves, the connecting grooves and the positioning grooves are vertically distributed, both sides of the connecting grooves are connected with the positioning grooves and the feeding pipes, and there are two feeding pipes and two connecting grooves.
[0015] The utility model is further configured as follows: the first manipulator (502) is provided with a first grabbing tube (505), the second manipulator (504) is provided with a second grabbing tube (506), and the first grabbing tube (505) and the second grabbing tube (506) are both provided with two, and the first grabbing tube (505) and the second grabbing tube (506) are respectively extended into the corresponding positioning groove (10) to grasp the tube valve.
[0016] The utility model is further configured as follows: a support bracket is further provided on the workbench, a slide groove is opened on the support bracket, and one side of the first manipulator is placed in the slide groove and is slidably connected to the slide groove.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0019] The cylinder is operated, and the receiving plate moves horizontally toward the feeding pipe until the connecting groove on the receiving plate is at the shortest distance from the feeding pipe, and stops operating. The two pipe valves are transferred from the feeding pipe to the two corresponding connecting grooves. After the transfer, the cylinder is operated again, and the receiving plate moves horizontally toward the placement plate for a certain distance. The cylinder stops operating and the first manipulator is operated. The first grabbing tube on the first manipulator grabs the two pipe valves on the receiving plate and places them on the placement plate. After grabbing, the second cylinder drives the receiving plate to move toward the feeding pipe to pick up the new pipe valves.
[0020] For the pipes and valves on the placement plate, the first stepper motor is operated, and the eight placement plates rotate. Through the rotation of the placement plates, the pipes and valves grabbed by the first grabbing tube from the receiving plate can be placed on different placement plates each time. The placement plate rotates to the second grabbing tube on the second manipulator, and the second manipulator is operated.

The material transmitting part 3 is placed between the feeding pipe 2 and the material transferring part 4, and the material transferring part 4 and the material pushing part 6 are respectively placed on both sides of the material transmitting part 3.
[0028] The feeding pipe 2 screens the pipe valves through the vibration plate, and the screened pipe valves are uploaded from the feeding pipe 2 to the material transfer part 3. The feeding pipe 2 has two, which further improves the feeding efficiency.
[0029] The material transmission component 3 includes a base frame 301 fixed on the workbench 1, a cylinder 302 fixed on the base frame 301, and a material receiving plate 303. A first push plate 304 is installed on the output end of the cylinder 302, and a second push plate 305 is installed on the bottom surface of the material receiving plate 303. The second push plate 305 is connected to the first push plate 304 to drive the cylinder 302. The cylinder 302 drives the first push plate 304 to move, and the first push plate 304 moves with the second push plate 305, so that the material receiving plate 303 is displaced along the moving direction of the second push plate 305. During the movement, the material receiving plate 303 and the feeding pipe 2 are always in the same horizontal plane, so that the pipe valve slides from the feeding pipe 2 to the material receiving plate 303.
[0030] The transfer member 4 includes a support frame 401 fixed to the workbench 1, a first stepper motor 402 and a rotating disk 403 fixed to the support frame 401, the rotating disk 403 is placed above the support frame 401, the bottom surface of the rotating disk 403 is connected to the output end of the first stepper motor 402, and eight storage plates 404 are installed on the rotating disk 403. The eight storage plates 404 are all fixed above the rotating disk 403, and the storage plates 404 are distributed around the center of the rotating disk 403 as the reference point.
[0031] The first stepper motor 402 drives the rotating disk 403 to rotate, and the rotating disk 403 drives the eight storage plates 404 to rotate. The first stepper motor 402 rotates 45 degrees counterclockwise each time, stops for a period of time after rotating 45 degrees, and then continues to rotate 45 degrees. After each rotation of the first stepper motor 402, the storage plates 404 and the receiving plate 303 are in the same horizontal plane.
[0032] The pusher 6 includes a second stepper motor 601 and a crawler 602. The output end of the second stepper motor 601 is connected to the crawler 602. Four fixing plates 603 are installed on the crawler 602. The fixing plates 603 are all fixed above the crawler 602.
[0033] The receiving plate 303, the storage plate 404 and the fixing plate 603 are all provided with a connecting groove 9 and a positioning groove 10. The connecting groove 9 and the positioning groove 10 are vertically distributed. Both sides of the connecting groove 9 are connected to the positioning groove 10 and the feeding pipe 2. There are two feeding pipes 2 and two connecting grooves 9.
[0034] The material grabbing component 5 includes a first base 501 fixed on the workbench 1, a first manipulator 502 fixed on the first base 501, a second base 503 placed on the workbench 1 and a second manipulator 504 placed on the second base 503. The first manipulator 502 is placed on one side of the material receiving plate 303.
[0035] The first manipulator 502 is provided with a first grabbing tube 505, and the second manipulator 504 is provided with a second grabbing tube 506. There are two first grabbing tubes 505 and two second grabbing tubes 506. The first grabbing tube 505 and the second grabbing tube 506 are respectively extended into the corresponding positioning groove 10 to grab the tube valve.
[0036] The first grabbing tube 505 on the first manipulator 502 reciprocates between the junction of the connecting groove 9 and the positioning groove 10 on the two receiving plates 303 and the junction of the connecting groove 9 and the positioning groove 10 on the two placement plates 404 to grab the pipe valve on the receiving plate 303 and place it on the placement plate 404.
[0037] The second manipulator 504 is placed above the rotating disk 403, and the second grabbing tube 506 on the second manipulator 504 reciprocates between the junction of the connecting groove 9 and the positioning groove 10 on the two placement plates 404 and the junction of the connecting groove 9 and the positioning groove 10 on the two fixed plates 603, thereby grabbing the pipe valve on the placement plate 404 and attaching it to the fixed plate 603.
[0038] The workbench 1 is also equipped with a support frame 7 fixed to the workbench 1, and a slide groove 8 is provided on the support frame 7. One side of the first manipulator 502 is placed in the slide groove 8 and connected to the slide groove 8, so that the first manipulator 502 will not deviate from the direction during the grasping process, and will only move horizontally above the receiving plate 303 and the storage plate 404.
[0039] Working principle: Run the cylinder 302, the first push plate 304 pushes the second push plate 305, and the second push plate 305 drives the receiving plate 303 to move horizontally toward the feeding pipe 2, and moves to the connecting groove 9 on the receiving plate 303 to be the shortest distance from the feeding pipe 2, and stops running. At this time, the two pipe valves are transferred from the feeding pipe 2 to the two corresponding connecting grooves 9 through the vibration plate. After transmission, run the cylinder 302 again, and after the receiving plate 303 moves horizontally toward the placement plate 404 for a distance, the cylinder 302 stops running, and runs the first manipulator 502. The first grabbing tube 505 on the first manipulator 502 extends into the positioning groove 10 of the receiving plate 303, grabs the two pipe valves to the junction of the connecting groove 9 and the positioning groove 10 on the placement plate 404. After grabbing, the second cylinder 302 drives the receiving plate 303 to move toward the feeding pipe 2 to catch the new pipe valve.
[0040] The first stepper motor 402 is operated for the pipe and valve on the placement plate 404. The first stepper motor 402 drives the rotating disk 403 to rotate, causing the eight placement plates 404 to rotate. Through the rotation of the placement plates 404, the first manipulator 502 can place the pipe and valve grabbed from the receiving plate 303 on different placement plates 404 each time.
[0041] The storage plate 404 rotates to the second grabbing tube 506 of the second manipulator 504, and the second manipulator 504 is operated. The second grabbing tube 506 extends into the positioning groove 10 on the storage plate 404, and grabs the two pipe valves to the intersection of the connecting groove 9 and the positioning groove 10 of the fixed plate 603. Since four fixed plates 603 are installed, after the second manipulator 504 grabs both sides, there are pipe valves on the four fixed plates 603. The second stepper motor 601 is operated, and the second stepper motor 601 drives the crawler 602 to move, and the crawler 602 drives the fixed plate 603 to move, thereby realizing the loading of the pipe valves. By adopting the clamping method to grab the pipe valves, the pipe valves can be loaded quickly and accurately, thereby improving production efficiency.
[0042] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any common changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
