Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical specimen storage boxes, in particular to an automatic opening and closing device of a specimen storage box. Background Art

[0002] Existing medical specimen storage boxes typically include a box body with a door on one side. When a patient places a specimen tube containing urine or feces into the box, the door needs to be opened. However, due to hygiene concerns, patients are often reluctant to touch the door with their hands. Therefore, how to automatically open and close the door has become an area worth improving. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an automatic opening and closing device for a specimen storage box.

[0004] The above technical purpose of the present utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions: an automatic opening and closing device for a specimen storage box, comprising a box body, vertical slide grooves are provided on both sides of the box body, a switch door is slidably provided on the vertical slide grooves, vertical racks are provided on both sides of the switch door, driving motors are provided on both sides of the box body that are engaged with the vertical racks through gears, an infrared sensor is provided on one side of the box body, and the infrared sensor is connected to the driving motor.

[0005] It is further configured as follows: resistance blocks are provided below both sides of the box.

[0006] It is further configured that: an inner slide rail extending outward is provided in the box body, and a specimen frame is slidably provided on the inner slide rail.

[0007] It is further configured as follows: a transverse rack is provided below the specimen frame, and the inner slide rail includes a plurality of rotating teeth meshing with the transverse rack; a driving tooth is also provided on the driving motor, and the rotating shaft of the rotating tooth extends out of the outside of the box body and is provided with an external tooth, and transition teeth meshing with each other are provided between the external tooth and the rotating tooth.

[0008] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The automatic opening and closing device of the specimen storage box utilizes an infrared sensor to control the activation and deactivation of the drive motor, thereby automatically opening the door without the patient having to manually open it. Furthermore, when the door automatically opens, the specimen tray is automatically ejected, making it easier for the patient to place the specimen on the specimen tray and facilitating use.

[0011] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0012] The automatic opening and closing device of a specimen storage box comprises a box body 1, which is a rectangular metal box.

[0013] Vertical slide grooves 2 are provided on both sides of the front of the box body 1, and a switch door 3 is slidably provided on the vertical slide grooves 2.

[0014] Vertical racks 4 are provided on both sides of the switch door 3. The outer end surfaces of the vertical racks 4 can be flush with the switch door 3 to ensure that the vertical racks 4 do not protrude. Drive motors 6 are provided on both sides of the box body 1. The drive motors 6 are provided with gears 5 that mesh with the vertical racks 4.

[0015] An infrared sensor 7 is provided on one side of the box body 1. The infrared sensor 7 is connected to the drive motor 6 through the control board, and the drive motor 6 drives the switch door 3 to open or close according to a predetermined action.

[0016] Resistance blocks 8 are provided below both sides of the box body 1 , and the resistance blocks 8 can resist the switch door 3 from below to prevent it from falling out of the vertical slide groove 2 .

[0017] Two inner slide rails 9 extending outward are provided within the housing 1. A specimen frame 10 is slidably provided on the inner slide rails 9. The specimen frame 10 is used to place specimen boxes. A downward-pointing transverse rack 11 is provided below the specimen frame 10. The inner slide rails 9 are provided with a plurality of rotating teeth 12, which mesh with the transverse rack 11. The rotating shaft of the rotating teeth 12 extends outside the housing 1 and is provided with external teeth 14. The housing 1 is provided with transition teeth 15. The drive motor 6 is also provided with drive teeth 13. The transition teeth 15 mesh with the drive teeth 13 and the external teeth 14, respectively. Therefore, when the drive motor 6 is started, the specimen frame 10 can be pushed in and out, making it convenient for patients to use.

[0018] Preferably, a protective cover is provided on the side of the box body 1 to cover the drive motor 6, etc., thereby increasing safety. A limit plate 16 can also be provided in the box body 1 to press the specimen frame 10 to prevent the specimen frame 10 from falling when it moves to the outer side.

[0019] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present invention and is not a limitation of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make non-creative modifications to the present embodiment as needed. However, as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by patent law.
