[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the grasping unit further includes an air pump and an air pipe. The air pump is mounted on the identification cabinet, and the two ends of the air pipe are respectively connected to the output end of the air pump and the air nozzle.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the storage cabinet is inclined, and the height of the end of the storage cabinet closer to the feeding component is higher than the height of the end of the storage cabinet farther from the feeding component.
[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the storage component further includes a plurality of sealing units, and the plurality of sealing units and a plurality of sealing cabinets are matched one-to-one, with any one of the sealing units being disposed at the lower end of the corresponding sealing cabinet.

The fixed housing is fixedly disposed at the lower end of the storage cabinet with its open end facing upward. The sealing plate is slidably disposed inside the fixed housing, and the sealing spring is disposed inside the fixed housing. The two ends of the sealing spring are respectively connected to the fixed housing and the sealing plate.
[0014] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the open end face of the fixed shell and the bottom surface of the storage cabinet are on the same inclined plane.
[0015] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, it further includes a discharge assembly, which includes a discharge production line, a discharge robotic arm, and a discharge plate. The discharge production line is located next to the storage rack near the lower end of the storage cabinet. The discharge robotic arm is slidably mounted on the storage rack and is located between the storage rack and the discharge production line.

[0028] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended utility model purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.
[0029] Please see Figures 1-5 This embodiment provides a vaccine storage device for matching disordered feeding, including an identification component 1, a feeding component 2, and a storage component 3. The identification component 1 includes a barcode scanner 101 and an identification cabinet 102. The barcode scanner 101 is disposed on the identification cabinet 102 and is used to scan the vaccine and read the vaccine type and production time. The storage component 3 includes a storage rack 301 and several storage cabinet groups. The storage rack 301 is disposed next to the identification cabinet 102. Several storage cabinet groups are disposed at equal intervals along the length direction of the storage rack 301. Each storage cabinet group includes several storage cabinets 302. Several storage cabinets 302 are disposed at equal intervals along the height direction of the storage rack 301. The feeding component 2 is disposed between the storage rack 301 and the identification cabinet 102. The feeding component 2 picks up the identified vaccine from the identification cabinet 102 and places it on the corresponding storage cabinet 302.
[0030] This solution includes an identification component 1 and a storage component 3. The identification component 1 includes a barcode scanner 101, which scans the vaccine and reads its type and production time. The storage component 3 includes a storage rack 301 and several storage cabinet groups. These storage cabinet groups are mounted on the storage rack 301 and correspond to several types of vaccines. Each storage cabinet group is used to hold a vaccine of the same type. Furthermore, several storage cabinets 302 within the same storage cabinet group correspond to vaccines of the same type manufactured at different times. Each storage cabinet 302 within the same storage cabinet group is used to hold a vaccine of the same type manufactured during a specific time period. The identification component 1 scans the vaccine and reads its type and production time. Then, the feeding component 2 is controlled to place the scanned vaccines into the corresponding storage cabinet 302, realizing the storage management of large batches and multiple types of vaccines. It can not only quickly retrieve specific types of vaccines, but also prioritize the use of vaccines manufactured earlier based on their manufacturing time. This solves the problem that in actual storage, when large batches and multiple types of vaccines are transported for storage, there are different types of vaccines and different production times for the same type of vaccine. This places more refined requirements on the storage conditions of vaccines. If this problem cannot be solved, it will not only increase the difficulty of retrieving specific types of vaccines, but also easily lead to some vaccines expiring before they can be used in time, thus wasting medical resources.
[0031] Specifically, the identification component 1 of this solution also includes an X-axis slide rail 103, a Y-axis slide rail 104, a vertical cylinder 105, and a gripping unit 4. The identification cabinet 102 is hollow inside, and a gripping opening is provided on the top of the identification cabinet 102. The Y-axis slide rail 104 is mounted on the top of the identification cabinet 102, the X-axis slide rail 103 is slidably mounted on the Y-axis slide rail 104, and the vertical cylinder 105 is slidably mounted on the X-axis slide rail 103. The gripping unit 4 includes an air nozzle 403, which is connected to the output end of the vertical cylinder 105 and is located at the top of the gripping opening. By setting the X-axis slide rail 103 and the Y-axis slide rail 104, the gripping unit 4 can move along the length and width directions of the gripping opening on the top of the identification cabinet 102. Then, the vertical cylinder 105 controls the height of the gripping unit 4 to grasp the vaccine inside the identification cabinet 102.
[0032] Furthermore, the grasping unit 4 of this solution also includes an air pump 401 and an air pipe 402. The air pump 401 is installed on the identification cabinet 102, and the two ends of the air pipe 402 are connected to the output end of the air pump 401 and the air nozzle 403, respectively. With the air pump 401 installed, when the air pump 401 starts to work, it causes the air nozzle 403 to generate negative pressure, firmly sucking up the vaccine that is attached to the air nozzle 403, thereby realizing the grasping of the vaccine.
[0033] In addition, the storage cabinet 302 in this solution is tilted, and the height of the end of the storage cabinet 302 closer to the feeding component 2 is higher than the height of the end of the storage cabinet 302 farther away from the feeding component 2. With this setting, when the feeding component 2 picks up the vaccine and places it on the corresponding storage cabinet 302, the vaccine slides from the higher end of the storage cabinet 302 to the lower end of the storage cabinet 302 due to the tilting effect of the storage cabinet 302.
[0034] To ensure that the vaccine placed inside the storage cabinet 302 does not slide out of the storage cabinet 302, the storage component 3 of this solution also includes several sealing units 5, which correspond one-to-one with several sealing cabinets. Each sealing unit 5 is located at the lower end of the corresponding sealing cabinet. The sealing unit 5 includes a hollow fixed housing 501, a sealing plate 502, and a sealing spring 503. The fixed housing 501 is fixedly located at the lower end of the storage cabinet 302, with the open end of the fixed housing 501 facing upwards. The sealing plate 502 slides... The sealing unit 503 is installed inside the fixed housing 501, and its two ends are connected to the fixed housing 501 and the sealing plate 502, respectively. With the sealing unit 503 installed, when the sealing block retracts into the fixed housing 501, the vaccine inside the storage cabinet 302 slides out of the storage cabinet 302 due to gravity. When the sealing block extends out of the fixed housing 501, the vaccine inside the storage cabinet 302 abuts against the sealing block, preventing further sliding. It is worth noting that the open end face of the fixed housing 501 and the bottom surface of the storage cabinet 302 are on the same inclined plane. This arrangement increases the contact area between the sealing plate 502 and the vaccine.
[0035] To retrieve the vaccines placed in the storage cabinet 302, this solution also includes a dispensing assembly 6. The dispensing assembly 6 includes a dispensing conveyor line 601, a dispensing robotic arm 602, and a dispensing plate 603. The dispensing conveyor line 601 is located next to the storage rack 301 near the lower end of the storage cabinet 302. The dispensing robotic arm 602 is slidably mounted on the storage rack 301, positioned between the storage rack 301 and the dispensing conveyor line 601. The dispensing robotic arm 602 is a multi-axis robotic arm, and its output end is connected to the dispensing plate 603. The dispensing plate 603 can... The sealing plate 502 is locked or released from its pressing relationship. This solution uses a dispensing assembly 6; the dispensing robotic arm 602 controls the dispensing plate 603 to press the sealing block, causing the sealing block to retract into the fixed housing 501. This ensures the sealing block releases its adhesion to the vaccine, allowing the vaccine to slide out under gravity and fall onto the dispensing plate 603. Then, the dispensing robotic arm 602 controls the dispensing plate 603 to move onto the dispensing line 601, allowing the vaccine placed on the dispensing plate 603 to slide onto the dispensing line 601 and flow out. It should be noted that while the dispensing robotic arm 602 is controlling the dispensing plate 603 to move to the dispensing line 601, the sealing plate 502 re-extends outside the fixed housing 501, restricting the sliding of the vaccine.
[0036] Furthermore, it should be noted that, in order to ensure that the dispensing plate 603 does not adhere to the vaccine during the pressing of the sealing plate 502, thereby preventing interference between the movement of the vaccine and the dispensing plate 603 and affecting the pressing of the sealing plate 502, this problem is addressed by maintaining a certain distance between the vaccine and the dispensing plate 603. Based on this, the sealing unit 5 of this solution also includes an extension block 504 and an extension spring 505. The sealing plate 502 has an extension slot at one end near the storage cabinet 302. The extension block 504 is slidably disposed in the extension slot, and the extension spring 505 is disposed in the extension slot. The two ends of the extension spring 505 are respectively connected to the extension block 504 and the sealing plate 502. By providing the protruding block 504, the sealing plate 502 can restrict the sliding of the vaccine while ensuring that there is a gap between the sealing plate 502 and the vaccine. This setting not only ensures that the dispensing plate 603 will not stick to the vaccine when the sealing plate 502 is pressed, but also ensures that the vaccine will not slide to the top of the sealing plate 502 when the sealing plate 502 re-extends out of the fixed housing 501, thus preventing the sealing plate 502 from failing to restrict the sliding of the vaccine.
[0037] Furthermore, to ensure that the protruding block 504 also retracts into the sealing plate 502 while the sealing plate 502 retracts into the fixed housing 501, the protruding block 504 in this design is inclined from top to bottom at the end closest to the storage cabinet 302, and the horizontal length of the protruding block 504 decreases gradually from top to bottom. The end face of the protruding block 504 near the storage cabinet 302 can be locked or released from its engagement with the end face of the sealing plate 502 near the storage cabinet 302 on the same inclined plane. Through this arrangement, it can be ensured that the protruding block 504 also retracts into the sealing plate 502 while the sealing plate 502 retracts into the fixed housing 501; and during the period when the sealing plate 502 re-extrudes out of the fixed housing 501, the protruding block 504 will also protrude out of the sealing plate 502, restricting the sliding of the vaccine.

[0039] S1: Several storage cabinet groups are matched with several types of vaccines, and any storage cabinet group is used to store the same type of vaccine;
[0040] S2: Several storage cabinets 302 in the same storage cabinet group are matched with vaccines of the same type manufactured at different times. Any storage cabinet 302 in the same storage cabinet group is used to store vaccines of the same type manufactured at a specific time period.
