Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of clothing distribution cabinets, and specifically relates to a clothing cabinet. Background Technology
[0002] To ensure patients' health, hygiene, and comfort, it is necessary to change patients' linens regularly. This is especially true in large city hospitals with a large number of patients, where there is a high risk of concentrated linen changes. In most hospitals, medical staff change linens in the storeroom. However, due to limited staff in the storeroom and restrictions on linen changing times in some hospitals, long queues often form for medical staff to change linens. The time spent by staff collecting and counting linens is also long, which greatly affects the efficiency of linen changing. Furthermore, the number of linens in each department is often insufficient, resulting in a lack of linens for patients and difficulties in departmental management. In addition, the haphazard piling of dirty linens creates dust and bacteria that can easily cause illness among staff. Summary of the Invention

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] In use, this utility model allows clean linens to be removed from multiple linen storage cylinders sequentially from bottom to top via an electric push rod. Then, a stepper motor drives the first pulley to rotate, which in turn drives the second pulley and the first rotating shaft to rotate via a synchronous belt. The rotating shaft rotates the linen storage cylinders to the retrieval port, thus greatly facilitating the changing of linens by medical staff and improving the hospital's efficiency in managing patient gowns.
[0015] This invention allows medical staff to place all clean bedding into a bedding storage tube. When using the device, they first place the duvet cover and sheet into the corresponding inlet. A weighing sensor detects the weight, and the central control display indicates that an old set of bedding has been put in. Then, the drive motor is activated, rotating a rubber lever to collect the old bedding into the soiled storage chamber. Next, an electric push rod at the bottom extends, pushing the clean bedding out of the bottom bedding storage tube and onto the retrieval port. Medical staff can then retrieve the clean bedding. This allows medical staff to put in an old set and take out a new one, reducing the time spent on collection and counting, improving the work efficiency of medical staff. It not only makes management more convenient but also ensures that the collected soiled clothes are cleaner and more hygienic, preventing dust from the soiled clothes from polluting the surrounding environment.

[0027] It should be understood that the two cabinets 1 can be separate structures or combined together. Each dirty storage chamber 5 is divided into three cavities, each with an inlet 9. Duvet covers and sheets can be placed in the corresponding inlet 9, and discarded bedding can be placed in another inlet 9.
[0028] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown: In this embodiment, the clean item removal component 10 includes a drive component 1001 and a rotating shaft 1002 rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the clean item storage cavity 4. The top of the rotating shaft 1002 is fixedly connected to a mounting plate 1003. Multiple linen storage tubes 1004 are fixedly connected to the upper circumference of the mounting plate 1003. A vertical rod 1007 is fixedly connected to the top wall of the clean item storage cavity 4. Multiple electric push rods 1005 corresponding to the linen storage tubes 1004 are installed on the front of the vertical rod 1007. A push plate 1006 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the electric push rod 1005. The drive component 1001 and the electric push rods 1005 are both electrically connected to the central control display 2.

During the movement, the push plate 1006 can push out the clean linen in the bottom linen storage tube 1004 and place it in the retrieval port 8. Then, the medical staff can take away the clean linen.
[0029] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown: In this embodiment, the drive assembly 1001 includes a stepper motor 1008 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the left side of the clean item storage cavity 4. The output end of the stepper motor 1008 is fixedly connected to a first pulley 1009, and the outer surface of the rotating shaft 1002 is fixedly connected to a second pulley 1010. The first pulley 1009 is connected to the second pulley 1010 via a synchronous belt 1011. In use, the stepper motor 1008 drives the first pulley 1009 to rotate. During the rotation of the first pulley 1009, the second pulley 1010 and the rotating shaft 1002 are driven to rotate via the synchronous belt 1011. During the rotation of the rotating shaft 1002, the linen storage cylinder 1004 is rotated to the retrieval port 8, which greatly facilitates the changing of linens by medical personnel.
[0030] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown: In this embodiment, the waste collection assembly 11 includes a fixed plate 1101 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the front side of the waste storage cavity 5. A drive motor 1102 is fixedly connected to the left side of the cabinet 1. A rotating shaft 1103 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 1102. The rotating shaft 1103 is located above the fixed plate 1101 and is fixedly connected to multiple rubber levers 1104. A bearing plate 1105 is installed above the fixed plate 1101. A weighing sensor 1106 is installed between the bearing plate 1105 and the fixed plate 1101. The weighing sensor 1106 is electrically connected to the central control display 2.
[0031] When in use, the duvet cover and sheet are placed in the corresponding inlet 9. At this time, the duvet cover and sheet fall onto the corresponding support plate 1105. The weight is detected by the weighing sensor 1106, and the central control display 2 determines that a set of old clothes has been put in. Then, the drive motor 1102 is started to drive the rotating shaft 1103 to rotate. During the rotation of the rotating shaft 1103, the rubber lever 1104 can rotate to collect the old clothes on the support plate 1105 into the dirty storage cavity 5, thereby avoiding the dust from being piled up randomly and making the working environment more hygienic.
[0032] When there is no weighing sensor 1106, place the duvet cover and sheet into the corresponding inlet 9, press the take-out button on the central control display 2, and the medical staff can automatically put in an old set and take out a new set.
[0033] In this embodiment, a protective door is rotatably installed at the loading and unloading port 8. The protective door is fixedly connected to the first door panel 6 by an electric lock. The electric lock is electrically connected to the central control display 2. With this protective door set up, the protective door is normally closed and is only opened when an old set of bedding is thrown in.
[0034] Working principle: When in use, open the first door panel 6 and put all the clean bedding into the bedding storage tube 1004, then close the first door panel 6. When medical staff need to change bedding, first place the duvet cover and sheet into the corresponding inlet 9. At this time, the duvet cover and sheet fall onto the corresponding support plate 1105. The weight is detected by the weighing sensor 1106, and the central control display 2 determines that a set of old bedding has been put in. Then, the drive motor 1102 is started to drive the rotating shaft 1103 to rotate. During the rotation of the rotating shaft 1103, it can drive the rubber lever 1104 to rotate, collecting the old bedding on the support plate 1105 into the soiled storage cavity 5. Then, the electric push rod 1005 at the bottom extends and drives the push plate 1006 to move. During the movement of the push plate 1006, it can collect the dry bedding in the bottom bedding storage tube 1004. Clean linens are pushed out and placed in the pick-up / drop-off port 8. Medical staff then remove the clean linens, allowing them to easily replace an old set with a new one. The system displays detailed information on the number of clean, recycled, and discarded linens, making management more convenient and ensuring that the collected dirty linens are cleaner and more hygienic. For the next use, clean linens are removed from the multiple linen storage cylinders 1004 sequentially from bottom to top. Then, a stepper motor 1008 drives the first pulley 1009 to rotate. During rotation, the first pulley 1009 drives the second pulley 1010 and the first shaft 1002 via a synchronous belt 1011. The first shaft 1002 rotates the linen storage cylinders 1004 to the pick-up / drop-off port 8, greatly facilitating the changing of linens for medical staff.
[0035] All technical features in this embodiment can be freely combined according to actual needs.
[0036] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
