It is used to label the test tubes output by the conveying device to realize the automation of test tube labeling, thereby realizing full automation of the equipment, effectively saving manual operation costs, and improving work efficiency.
[0042] Specifically, if Figures 1 to 10 As shown, in this embodiment, the base 100 is rectangular, and a storage device, a conveying device and a labeling device are arranged thereon in sequence; the storage device includes a base 100, on which a plurality of storage pipes 200 arranged in a line and having an outlet end 210 are provided, and the storage pipes 200 are inclined toward the ground at one end close to the conveying device so that the test tubes stored in the storage pipes 200 can slide toward the conveying device; wherein, the outlet end 210 of the storage pipe 200 is provided with a discharge assembly 300, which forms a barrier to the outlet end 210 and forms a movably connected with the outlet end 210 to realize the opening or closing of the outlet end 210, thereby realizing the discharge of the test tubes.

[0045] In this embodiment, the front-end barrier 310 and the rear-end barrier 320 are respectively movably connected to the outlet end 210, wherein the front-end barrier 310 is arranged below the storage pipe 200 and moves along its own horizontal direction, and the rear-end barrier 320 is arranged above the storage pipe 200 and moves along its own vertical direction to form a blockade for the outlet end 210 respectively; and there are a plurality of rear-end barrier members 320, which are arranged in a line and correspond one by one to a plurality of outlet ends 210 and form a movably connection to realize the separate blocking and discharge of multiple storage pipes 200.
[0046] In this embodiment, when the front-end barrier 310 moves away from the outlet end 210, the test tube slides from the storage pipe 200 to between the front-end barrier 310 and the rear-end barrier 320, so that the first test tubes in multiple storage pipes 200 are all in a state to be discharged. When any rear-end barrier 320 moves away from the outlet end 210, the test tube in the corresponding single storage pipe 200 in the state to be discharged slides out, so as to realize independent discharge of test tubes from different storage pipes 200, thereby realizing automatic separate discharge of different types of test tubes, effectively reducing manual operation costs, and at the same time reducing the operational error rate of test tube type selection.

The flow grooves 311 are arranged in a row and have a diameter larger than the diameter of the storage pipe 200, so that the test tubes can pass through smoothly; when the front-end blocking member 310 moves in the direction away from the outlet end 210, the flow grooves 311 are aligned with the outlet ends 210 of each storage pipe 200, removing the obstruction to the outlet ends 210, so that the test tubes slide through the flow grooves 311 to between the front-end blocking member 310 and the rear-end blocking member 320; when the front-end blocking member 310 moves in the direction close to the outlet end 210, the flow grooves 311 are staggered with the outlet ends 210 of each storage pipe 200 and form a blockage thereto, so that the test tubes are blocked in the storage pipe 200, thereby making the front-end blocking member 310 serve as the first valve for discharging materials from the storage pipe 200.
[0048] Preferably, in this embodiment, the front end barrier 310 moves in its own horizontal direction, that is, moves left and right relative to the outlet end 210, wherein, in the initial state, the flow groove 311 of the front end barrier 310 is staggered with the outlet end 210, forming a blockage to the outlet end 210, so that in the initial state, the test tube is in the storage pipe 200.
[0049] In this embodiment, the rear end barrier 320 is arranged on the side of the front end barrier 310 away from the outlet end 210, and includes a barrier portion 321 extending toward the outlet end 210. The barrier portions 321 are arranged in a line and correspond one to one with several outlet ends 210 respectively, so as to realize independent discharge of test tubes from different storage pipes 200; when the rear end barrier 320 moves toward the outlet end 210, the barrier portion 321 blocks the outlet end 210, so that the test tube is stuck between the front end barrier 310 and the rear end barrier 320 and is in a state of waiting for discharge; when the rear end barrier 320 moves toward the direction away from the outlet end 210, the barrier portion 321 releases the blockage of the outlet end 210, so that the test tube slides toward the conveying device away from the front end barrier 310 to realize discharge.
[0050] In order to realize full automation of test tube discharging and labeling, in this embodiment, a conveying device is provided between the storage device and the labeling device. The conveying device is located at the front end of the base 100, adjacent to the storage device, for receiving the test tubes output by the storage pipe 200, and conveying the test tubes to the next working area, namely the labeling device, thereby realizing automation of test tube conveyance, saving the cost of manual conveyance, and facilitating automation of the entire process of test tube discharging and labeling.
[0051] like Figures 3 to 8As shown, in order to adjust the posture of the test tube after discharge, in this embodiment, the conveying device includes a guide component 500 and a conveying component 600, and the guide component 500 corresponds to the outlet end 210 of the storage pipe 200, and is movably connected with several outlet ends 210 through the transmission component 700 to realize automatic selection of test tubes of different models; wherein, the guide component 500 is provided with a steering structure 510 for adjusting the tilt direction of the test tube, so that the test tubes sliding into the steering structure 510 are uniformly tilted to one side, so that when all test tubes passing through the steering structure 510 fall on the conveying component 600, their heads are uniformly facing one side, thereby ensuring the consistency of the test tube orientation when all test tubes are labeled.
[0052] In this embodiment, the transmission assembly 700 extends along the arrangement direction of the multiple storage pipes 200, and includes a belt transmission structure 710 and a slider structure 112, which are used to drive the guide assembly 500 to move back and forth between the outlet ends 210 of the multiple storage pipes 200 along the length direction of the conveying assembly 600.
[0053] In this embodiment, the steering structure 510 includes a first clamping portion 511 and a second clamping portion 512, and there is a gap between the first clamping portion 511 and the second clamping portion 512 to form a passage for placing the test tube, wherein there is a height difference between the first clamping portion 511 and the second clamping portion 512 so that the test tube is tilted toward the low side, and the first clamping portion 511 and / or the second clamping portion 512 are tilted away from the outlet end 210 toward the conveying component 600, so that the test tube falls onto the conveying component 600 in an inclined shape, thereby realizing posture adjustment of the test tube after discharge.
[0054] Preferably, in this embodiment, the height of the first clamping portion 511 is lower than the height of the second clamping portion 512, and the first clamping portion 511 is inclined away from the outlet end 210 toward the conveying assembly 600, so that the test tube slides into the steering structure 510 through the storage pipe 200 and tilts toward the side of the first clamping portion 511, even if the head of the test tube is close to the side of the labeling device.
[0055] In this embodiment, the conveying assembly 600 is arranged below the guide assembly 500 to receive the test tubes dropped by the steering structure 510 and transport the test tubes after adjusting their posture to the labeling device. The conveying assembly 600 includes a conveyor belt and a drive motor connected to the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt is arranged horizontally, one end of which is on one side of the storage device, and the other end extends toward the direction close to the labeling device to realize the transportation of the test tubes.
[0056] In this embodiment, in order to further ensure the stability of the test tube posture, the guide component 500 also includes a sensing structure 520, which forms a signal connection with the transmission component 600 to sense the signal of the test tube falling in the steering structure 510 and control the running speed of the transmission component 600.
[0057] Preferably, the sensing structure 520 is a laser sensor, which is arranged on the adjacent side of the steering structure 510. When the sensing structure 520 detects a signal that a test tube passes through the steering structure 510, it sends a signal to the conveying component 600, causing the conveying component 600 to slow down or stop within a specified time, thereby preventing the test tube that falls on the conveying component 600 from changing its posture due to the inertia of the conveying component 600.

When it moves toward the fixing component 800, the test tube can be labeled to realize automatic labeling of the test tube. When it moves toward the direction away from the fixing component 800, it is convenient for users to maintain the labeling component 900 and the fixing component 800, thereby effectively improving the convenience and maintenance efficiency of equipment maintenance.
[0059] In this embodiment, the fixing assembly 800 includes a first fixing portion 810, a second fixing portion 820 and a third fixing portion 830 distributed in a triangular shape, wherein the first fixing portion 810 is movably connected to the base 100 and moves toward or away from the labeling assembly 900 relative to the second fixing portion 820 and the third fixing portion 830. When the first fixing portion 810 moves toward the labeling assembly 900, the first fixing portion 810, the second fixing portion 820 and the third fixing portion 830 respectively abut against the test tube to form a clamping shape for the test tube, thereby facilitating the labeling assembly 900 to label the test tube and ensure the stability of the test tube during labeling; when the first fixing portion 810 moves away from the labeling assembly 900, the test tube is successively separated from the third fixing portion 830, the second fixing portion 820 and the first fixing portion 810 to release the clamping of the test tube so that the test tube falls into the storage box 140. On the one hand, the test tubes with qualified posture can be stored in the storage box 140 after being labeled. On the other hand, the test tubes with unqualified posture can be directly dropped into the storage box 140 without being labeled, so that users can screen them out for secondary use. Under the premise of ensuring the consistency of the test tube label information, the waste of test tubes is avoided.
[0060] In this embodiment, a second driving component 110 is also provided on the base 100 for driving the first fixing part 810 to move. The second driving component 110 includes a support frame 111, a slider structure 112 and a third driving member 113, wherein the support frame 111 and the fixing component 800 are horizontally arranged, and one side of the support frame 111 is connected to the first fixing part 810, and the other side is respectively connected to the slider structure 112 and the third driving member 113, and the first fixing part 810 is driven by the third driving member 113 to move toward or away from the labeling component 900, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the fixing component 800, thereby realizing the clamping or unclamping of the test tube.
[0061] In this embodiment, the slider structure 112 includes a sliding groove provided on the base 100 and extending in a direction perpendicular to the first fixed portion 810, and a sliding block slidably connected to the sliding groove, wherein the sliding block is connected to the support frame 111; the third driving member 113 is a driving cylinder, the output end of which is connected to the side of the support frame 111 away from the sliding block, and drives the support frame 111 to move along the length direction of the sliding groove to realize the movement of the support frame 111.
[0062] In this embodiment, a gear assembly 120 is also provided on the base 100, and the gear assembly 120 is respectively connected to the first fixing part 810, the second fixing part 820 and the third fixing part 830, so that the first fixing part 810, the second fixing part 820 and the third fixing part 830 can all rotate around their own circumference and drive the test tube abutting therewith to rotate, so that the information surface to be pasted of the test tube faces the labeling assembly 900, so that the test tube can be labeled.
[0063] In this embodiment, a first sensing member 130 and a second sensing member 131 are further provided on the base 100, wherein the first sensing member 130 is adjacent to the gear assembly 120 and forms a signal connection with the second drive assembly 110 to detect the posture of the clamped test tube and feed back an electrical signal to the second drive assembly 110 according to the detection signal to sense the head of the test tube, thereby realizing monitoring of the test tube posture. When the first sensing member 130 detects the head of the test tube, it indicates that the test tube posture is correct, and the first fixing portion 810 moves toward the second fixing portion 820 and the third fixing portion 830. Together with the second fixing part 820 and the third fixing part 830, a space for clamping the test tube is formed, and the three are respectively in contact with the test tube to clamp the test tube; when the first sensing part 130 does not detect the test tube head, it means that the test tube posture is incorrect, and an electrical signal is sent to the third driving part 113, and the third driving part 113 drives the support frame 111 to move away from the labeling device, thereby driving the first fixing part 810 to move away from the second fixing part 820 and the third fixing part 830, so that the test tube falls directly into the storage box 140 without labeling, thereby realizing intelligent screening of test tubes with qualified postures.
