Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of disinfectant powder dispensing, specifically to an automatic dispenser for disinfectant powder packets. Background Technology

[0002] Medical devices require sterilization after use, and the sterilization process is extremely rigorous. Sterilization methods include chemical sterilization, physical sterilization, and high-temperature steam sterilization. For endoscopes, due to their characteristics, only chemical sterilization can be used. This involves dissolving a disinfectant powder packet in water to form a disinfectant solution, which is suitable for single-use and minimizes the risk of infection. Current methods for preparing disinfectant solutions primarily involve manually adding disinfectant powder packets to water, a cumbersome process that also produces a strong, irritating odor. Frequent manual addition of these powder packets is detrimental to human health. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned problems and provide an automatic dispenser for disinfectant powder packets. This dispenser can automatically dispense disinfectant powder packets without manual intervention. The dispensing process is simple, greatly reducing the workload of staff and avoiding the adverse effects of disinfectant powder packets on human health.

[0004] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] An automatic disinfectant powder dispenser includes a powder tray for holding disinfectant powder packets, a dissolving tank for dissolving the disinfectant powder packets, and a dispensing control mechanism disposed on the powder tray for automatically controlling the disinfectant powder packets on the powder tray to enter the dissolving tank; wherein, the powder tray is inclined downward toward the dissolving tank; the dispensing control mechanism includes a dispensing baffle and a dispensing drive mechanism for driving the dispensing baffle to move.

[0006] The working principle of the above-mentioned automatic disinfectant powder dispenser is as follows:

[0007] During operation, the dispensing drive mechanism moves the dispensing baffle upwards or tilts upwards, ensuring it does not obstruct the disinfectant powder packets on the powder tray. Because the powder tray is tilted downwards towards the dissolving tank, the disinfectant powder packets slide along the tray towards the dissolving tank under their own weight until they fall into the tank for dissolution and use. After dispensing, the dispensing drive mechanism moves the dispensing baffle downwards or tilts downwards, stopping the disinfectant powder packets on the powder tray. The packets stop moving and are stored on the tray, awaiting the next dispensing.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the powder tray is provided with a storage slide, the disinfectant powder packet is placed on the storage slide, and the storage slide has a discharge port at one end near the dissolving tank. The dispensing baffle is located at the discharge port. In the above structure, during operation, the dispensing drive mechanism drives the dispensing baffle to move upward or tilt upward, thereby opening the discharge port. The disinfectant powder packet slides along the storage slide and falls from the discharge port into the dissolving tank for dissolution and use. After dispensing, the dispensing drive mechanism drives the dispensing baffle to move downward or tilt downward, closing the discharge port and blocking the disinfectant powder packet. The location of the dispensing baffle at the discharge port can greatly increase the storage space of the powder tray.

[0009] Preferably, the storage slide is provided with a dividing and blocking mechanism, which includes multiple blocking control components that are evenly arranged along the extension direction of the powder tray; each blocking control component includes a blocking partition and a blocking drive mechanism for driving the blocking partition to move; the multiple blocking partitions divide the storage slide into several disinfectant powder package storage units. In the above structure, by setting multiple blocking control components, the disinfectant powder packets can be dispensed sequentially, ensuring a quantitative dispensing of disinfectant powder packets. If one disinfectant powder packet storage unit is used to hold one disinfectant powder packet, one disinfectant powder packet can be dispensed at a time, and so on. The specific dispensing process is as follows: the dispensing drive mechanism drives the dispensing baffle to move upward or tilt upward, thereby opening the discharge port. The disinfectant powder packet located in the disinfectant powder packet storage unit closest to the dissolving tank (the first disinfectant powder packet) enters the dissolving tank from the discharge port, completing one dispensing. The remaining disinfectant powder packets remain stationary under the action of the blocking baffle. When the next dispensing is to be performed, the blocking drive mechanism closest to the dissolving tank drives the blocking baffle to move downward or tilt downward. This blocking baffle will not block the disinfectant powder packet in the second disinfectant powder packet storage unit. The disinfectant powder packet in the second disinfectant powder packet storage unit slides along the storage slide and enters the dissolving tank from the discharge port, and so on, for sequential dispensing. Once all disinfectant powder packets have been dispensed, the blocking drive mechanism drives the blocking partition to move upwards or tilt upwards, forming a disinfectant powder packet storage unit, and then the disinfectant powder packets are repositioned.

[0010] Preferably, the powder tray is equipped with a partition plate; the partition plate divides the internal space of the powder tray into two storage channels; there are two sets of dispensing control mechanisms and two sets of partitioning and blocking mechanisms; the two sets of dispensing control mechanisms are configured one-to-one with the two storage channels; the two sets of partitioning and blocking mechanisms are configured one-to-one with the two storage channels. In the above structure, by setting two storage channels, the storage space of the powder tray can be increased, and the number of disinfectant powder pack storage units can be increased. With the two sets of dispensing control mechanisms and partitioning and blocking mechanisms, the dispensing of the two storage channels can be controlled separately, which is highly flexible. Simultaneous dispensing of the two storage channels can also improve dispensing efficiency.

[0011] Preferably, both the dispensing drive mechanism and the blocking drive mechanism include a telescopic motor, which is disposed on the side of the powder tray. The telescopic component of the telescopic motor of the dispensing drive mechanism is connected to the dispensing baffle, and the telescopic component of the telescopic motor of the blocking drive mechanism is connected to the blocking partition. The telescopic motor directly drives the dispensing baffle and the blocking partition to move, resulting in a simpler structure.

[0012] Preferably, the storage slide has an opening slot at a position corresponding to the blocking partition, and the blocking partition is located in the opening slot. The opening slot does not obstruct the movement of the blocking partition, thus serving a clearance function, and it also provides some guidance for the blocking partition.

[0013] Preferably, the powder tray has a first guide rod near the dissolving tank for guiding the movement of the dispensing baffle, and the dispensing baffle has a first sliding block slidably connected to the first guide rod; the bottom of the powder tray has a second guide rod for guiding the movement of the blocking baffle, and the blocking baffle has a second sliding block slidably connected to the second guide rod. This structure guides the dispensing baffle and the blocking baffle, ensuring stable movement.

[0014] Preferably, the powder tray is provided with a support frame at its lower end. The support frame serves to mount the powder tray. The support frame includes a long frame and a short frame. The long frame is located at the end of the powder tray furthest from the dissolving tank, and the short frame is located at the end of the powder tray closest to the dissolving tank, ensuring that the powder tray is tilted.

[0015] Preferably, the powder tray is provided with a cover plate at its upper end. By providing the cover plate, the powder tray can be sealed, preventing contamination of the disinfectant powder packets. Because of the cover plate, the telescopic motors of the dispensing drive mechanism and the blocking drive mechanism face opposite directions, ensuring that the blocking partition will not collide with the cover plate during movement.

[0016] Preferably, the dissolving tank is provided with an inlet located below the outlet, and a protective cover is provided on the inlet. In the above structure, the disinfectant powder packet exiting the outlet enters the dissolving tank through the inlet for dissolution, and the protective cover on top provides protection and obstruction.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0018] The automatic disinfectant powder dispenser of this invention features a powder tray that is tilted downwards towards the dissolving tank. Under its own weight, the disinfectant powder packets slide along the powder tray towards the dissolving tank. The dispensing drive mechanism controls the movement of the dispensing baffle, achieving automatic dispensing of the disinfectant powder packets without manual intervention. The dispensing process is simple, greatly improving work efficiency, reducing the workload of staff, and avoiding any adverse effects on human health from the disinfectant powder packets.

[0027] To enable those skilled in the art to fully understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings, but the implementation of this utility model is not limited thereto.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] Figures 1-6 This embodiment discloses an automatic disinfectant powder dispenser, including a powder tray 2 for placing disinfectant powder packets 1, a dissolving tank 3 for dissolving the disinfectant powder packets 1, and a dispensing control mechanism 4 disposed on the powder tray 2 for automatically controlling the disinfectant powder packets 1 on the powder tray 2 to enter the dissolving tank 3; wherein, the powder tray 2 is inclined downward toward the dissolving tank 3, that is, the powder tray 2 is placed on a slope; the dispensing control mechanism 4 includes a dispensing baffle 4-1 and a dispensing drive mechanism 4-2 for driving the dispensing baffle 4-1 to move.

[0030] Figures 1-6 Because the powder tray 2 is tilted downwards towards the dissolving tank 3, the disinfectant powder pack 1 will slide along the powder tray 2 towards the dissolving tank 3 under its own weight. The dispensing drive mechanism 4-2 controls the movement of the dispensing baffle 4-1, achieving automatic dispensing of the disinfectant powder pack 1 without manual intervention. The dispensing process is simple, greatly improving work efficiency and reducing the workload of staff, while also preventing the disinfectant powder pack 1 from being harmful to human health. When not dispensing, the dispensing baffle 4-1 blocks the disinfectant powder pack 1; when dispensing, the dispensing baffle 4-1 moves away, and the disinfectant powder pack 1 on the powder tray 2 slides into the dissolving tank 3 under its own weight.

[0031] Figures 1-6 The powder tray 2 is equipped with a storage slide 5, and the disinfectant powder packet 1 is placed on the storage slide 5. The storage slide 5 has a discharge port 6 at one end near the dissolving tank 3, and the dispensing baffle 4-1 is located at the discharge port 6. In the above structure, during operation, the dispensing drive mechanism 4-2 drives the dispensing baffle 4-1 to tilt upward, thereby opening the discharge port 6. The disinfectant powder packet 1 slides along the storage slide 5 and falls into the dissolving tank 3 from the discharge port 6 for dissolution and use. After dispensing, the dispensing drive mechanism 4-2 drives the dispensing baffle 4-1 to tilt downward, and the dispensing baffle 4-1 closes the discharge port 6, blocking the disinfectant powder packet 1. The location of the dispensing baffle 4-1 at the discharge port 6 can greatly increase the storage space of the powder tray 2.

[0032] Figures 1-6The storage chute 5 is equipped with a separating and blocking mechanism, which includes multiple blocking control components 7. These components are evenly arranged along the extending direction of the powder tray 2 (the powder tray 2 tilts downwards). Each blocking control component 7 includes a blocking partition 7-1 and a blocking drive mechanism 7-2 for driving the blocking partition 7-1. The multiple blocking partitions 7-1 divide the storage chute 5 into several disinfectant powder packet storage units 51. In this structure, by setting multiple blocking control components 7, the disinfectant powder packets 1 can be dispensed sequentially, ensuring a quantitative dispensing of the disinfectant powder packets 1. If one disinfectant powder packet storage unit 51 is used to hold one disinfectant powder packet 1, one disinfectant powder packet 1 can be dispensed at a time, and so on. The specific dispensing process is as follows: the dispensing drive mechanism 4-2 drives the dispensing baffle 4-1 to tilt upwards, thereby opening the outlet 6. The disinfectant powder packet 1 (the first disinfectant powder packet 1) located in the disinfectant powder packet storage unit 51 closest to the dissolving tank 3 is dispensed from the outlet 6. The disinfectant powder packets enter the dissolving tank 3 for one dispensing cycle, while the remaining packets remain stationary due to the action of the baffle 7-1. When the next dispensing cycle begins, the baffle drive mechanism 7-2 closest to the dissolving tank 3 drives the baffle 7-1 to tilt downwards. This baffle 7-1 does not obstruct the dispensing of the second disinfectant powder packet storage unit 51. The disinfectant powder packet 1 in the second storage unit 51 slides along the storage chute 5 and enters the dissolving tank 3 from the outlet 6. This process is repeated sequentially to ensure precise dispensing of the disinfectant powder packets 1. Once all disinfectant powder packets 1 have been dispensed, the baffle drive mechanism 7-2 drives the baffle 7-1 to tilt upwards, forming the disinfectant powder packet storage unit 51, where the disinfectant powder packets 1 are then repositioned.

[0033] Figures 1-6 The powder tray 2 is equipped with a partition plate 8, which divides the internal space of the powder tray 2 into two storage channels 5. There are two sets of dispensing control mechanisms 4 and two sets of separating and blocking mechanisms. Each set of dispensing control mechanisms 4 corresponds to one of the two storage channels 5 (the discharge ports 6 of the two storage channels 5). Similarly, each set of separating and blocking mechanisms corresponds to one of the two storage channels 5. In this structure, by providing two storage channels 5, the storage space of the powder tray 2 can be increased, as can the number of disinfectant powder package storage units 51. The dispensing of the two storage channels 5 can be controlled separately by the two sets of dispensing control mechanisms 4 and separating and blocking mechanisms, providing high flexibility. Simultaneous dispensing from both storage channels 5 can also improve dispensing efficiency.

[0034] Figures 1-6 In this embodiment, each storage slide 5 is provided with 4 blocking control components 7, and 4 blocking partitions 7-1 divide the storage slide 5 into 5 disinfectant powder package storage units 51.

[0035] Figures 1-6 Both the dispensing drive mechanism 4-2 and the blocking drive mechanism 7-2 include telescopic motors, which are located on the side of the powder tray 2. The telescopic component of the telescopic motor of the dispensing drive mechanism 4-2 is connected to the dispensing baffle 4-1, and the telescopic component of the telescopic motor of the blocking drive mechanism 7-2 is connected to the blocking partition 7-1. The telescopic motors directly drive the dispensing baffle 4-1 and the blocking partition 7-1 to move, resulting in a simpler structure.

[0036] Figures 1-6 In this embodiment, the movement directions of the dispensing baffle 4-1 and the blocking partition 7-1 are both perpendicular to the extension direction of the powder tray 2, that is, the telescopic motor is set perpendicular to the powder tray 2; the two sets of dispensing control mechanisms 4 are symmetrically arranged, and the two sets of separating and blocking mechanisms are also symmetrically arranged. This ensures a more compact structure and a more reasonable layout.

[0037] Figures 1-6 The storage slide 5 has an opening groove 9 at a position corresponding to the blocking partition 7-1, and the blocking partition 7-1 is located in the opening groove 9. The opening groove 9 does not hinder the movement of the blocking partition 7-1, thus playing a role in avoidance, and the opening groove 9 can also play a certain guiding role for the blocking partition 7-1.

[0038] Figures 1-8 The powder tray 2 has a first guide rod 10 near the dissolving tank 3 to guide the movement of the dispensing baffle 4-1. The dispensing baffle 4-1 has a first sliding block 12, which is slidably connected to the first guide rod 10. One side of the dispensing baffle 4-1 is connected to a telescopic motor, and the other side is connected to the first sliding block 12. The bottom of the powder tray 2 has a second guide rod 13 to guide the movement of the blocking partition 7-1. The blocking partition 7-1 has a second sliding block 14, which is slidably connected to the second guide rod 13. One side of the blocking partition 7-1 is connected to a telescopic motor, and the other side is connected to the second sliding block 14. This structure guides the dispensing baffle 4-1 and the blocking partition 7-1, ensuring stable movement.

[0039] See Figure 1 The powder tray 2 is provided with a support frame 15 at its lower end. The support frame 15 serves to install the powder tray 2. The support frame 15 includes a long frame and a short frame. The long frame is located at the end of the powder tray 2 away from the dissolving box 3, and the short frame is located at the end of the powder tray 2 closer to the dissolving box 3, ensuring that the powder tray 2 is tilted.

[0040] See Figure 1The powder tray 2 is equipped with a cover plate 16 at its upper end. By setting the cover plate 16, the powder tray 2 can be sealed to prevent contamination of the disinfectant powder package 1. Because of the cover plate 16, the telescopic motors of the dispensing drive mechanism 4-2 and the blocking drive mechanism 7-2 are both oriented in opposite directions. That is, during dispensing, the movement direction of the dispensing baffle 4-1 is opposite to the movement direction of the blocking baffle 7-1, so that the blocking baffle 7-1 will not collide with the cover plate 16 during the movement.

[0041] See Figure 1 and Figure 3 The dissolving tank 3 is provided with an inlet 17, which is located below the outlet 6. A protective cover 18 is provided on the inlet 17. In the above structure, the disinfectant powder package coming out of the outlet 6 enters the dissolving tank 3 through the inlet 17 for dissolution, and the protective cover 18 on top can play a protective and blocking role.

[0042] See Figures 1-6 The working principle of the above-mentioned automatic disinfectant powder dispenser is as follows:

[0043] During operation, the dispensing drive mechanism 4-2 drives the dispensing baffle 4-1 to tilt upwards. At this time, the dispensing baffle 4-1 does not obstruct the disinfectant powder packet 1 on the powder tray 2. Since the powder tray 2 is tilted downwards towards the dissolving tank 3, the disinfectant powder packet 1 slides along the powder tray 2 towards the dissolving tank 3 under its own weight until it falls into the dissolving tank 3 for dissolution and use. After dispensing, the dispensing drive mechanism 4-2 drives the dispensing baffle 4-1 to tilt downwards. The dispensing baffle 4-1 then obstructs the disinfectant powder packet 1 on the powder tray 2. The disinfectant powder packet 1 stops moving under the obstruction of the dispensing baffle 4-1 and is stored on the powder tray 2, awaiting the next dispensing.

[0044] Example 2

[0045] The other structures in this embodiment are the same as in Embodiment 1, except that there are two powder trays 2, each with a storage slide 5, and the two powder trays 2 are arranged side by side. By setting the above structure, the storage space of the powder trays 2 can be increased, as well as the number of disinfectant powder pack storage units 51 can be increased. Through two sets of dispensing control mechanisms 4 and separating blocking mechanisms, the dispensing of the two storage slides 5 can be controlled separately, which is highly flexible. Simultaneous dispensing of the two storage slides 5 can also improve dispensing efficiency.

[0046] The movement direction of the delivery baffle 4-1 and the blocking partition 7-1 can be upward or downward. That is, the telescopic motor is set perpendicular to the horizontal plane.

[0047] The above are preferred embodiments of the present utility model, but the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited to the above content. Any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be considered equivalent substitutions and shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
