Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device processing equipment technology, specifically to a material discharge and drying device. Background Technology

[0002] In the medical field, medical catheters are widely used in various medical procedures, including infusion, drainage, anesthesia, and monitoring. To ensure the safety and effectiveness of these procedures, the effective connection and sealing performance between the catheter and its connector are crucial. Improper connections can lead to leaks, infections, or other complications, resulting in adverse consequences for the patient.

[0003] The connection processes for medical catheters and connectors are mainly divided into two types: welding (such as high-frequency pressure welding and ultrasonic welding) and adhesive bonding (such as using adhesives like cyclohexanone and tetrahydrofuran). Welding offers better connection strength and sealing, but it requires more sophisticated equipment, and the connection may experience thermal deformation or performance changes. Adhesive bonding offers relatively lower connection strength, but it is sufficient to meet the requirements of low-pressure and low-flow-rate media in the medical field. It also has advantages such as lower equipment requirements, simpler operation, compatibility with various materials, and less heat-affected zone, making it more widely used.

[0004] After medical catheters and connectors are glued together, they need to be left to dry for a period of time to prevent glue leakage, poor sealing, or even connector detachment. This drying process requires a considerable amount of time and space, which slows down the processing speed of the medical catheter and connector gluing process and also leads to higher defect rates and increased risk of contamination. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to shorten the overall processing time of the adhesive bonding process for connecting medical catheters and connectors, this utility model provides a material discharge and drying device.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a material discharge and drying device, comprising: a bracket, which is installed in conjunction with a bonding device for medical catheters and connectors; a conveyor belt, which is installed on the bracket, with one inlet end connected to the discharge port of the bonding device and one outlet end connected to a material tray; a power device, which is connected to the conveyor belt for transmission and drives the conveyor belt to move; and a heating module, which is disposed above the conveyor belt.

[0007] Preferably, it also includes an oven lid with an open bottom, which is installed and covers the conveyor belt, and the heating module is installed on top of the oven lid.

[0008] Preferably, the heating module heats the oven by heat convection. The heating module includes a fan, an electric heating element, and a cover arranged from top to bottom. An air inlet is provided on the top of the oven cover corresponding to the position of the heating module.

[0009] Preferably, the heating module heats the material by thermal radiation, and the heating module uses an infrared radiation lamp.

[0010] Preferably, the power unit is a variable frequency speed adjustable motor.

[0011] Preferably, there are multiple heating modules, which are evenly arranged along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt.

[0012] Preferably, the bracket has a lug at one end near the adhesive bonding device, and the lug has an mounting elongated hole.

[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. Improve production efficiency: The addition of a drying process can quickly dry the glue, shorten the drying time, and avoid the long standing time problem caused by the traditional medical catheter drying process, thus improving production efficiency;

[0015] 2. Reduced space requirements: The bonding, discharging, and drying processes are integrated into one piece of equipment, reducing the space occupied in production and saving workstations and storage space, thus adapting to the needs of modern production line layouts;

[0016] 3. Adjustable transmission system: The speed of the conveyor belt can be flexibly adjusted according to different process requirements, and the drying time and glue drying effect can be precisely controlled, making the whole equipment more flexible and adaptable to various production scenarios;

[0017] 4. Multi-point heating modules: The uniform arrangement of heating modules ensures that the medical catheters are fully heated as they pass through any area of ​​the conveyor belt, which helps to improve the overall drying effect and ensure high-quality product delivery.

[0018] 5. Improve product reliability: Uniform heat distribution and timely transportation can effectively prevent leakage or joint detachment caused by undried glue, thereby improving the sealing and safety of the connection and reducing the medical risks of the product.

[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0025] In the embodiments, such as Figures 1-3 The diagram shows a material discharge and drying device, comprising: a support 1, integrated with a bonding device 2 for medical catheters and connectors; a conveyor belt 3, mounted on the support 1, with one inlet end connected to the outlet of the bonding device 2 and the other outlet end connected to a material tray; a power unit 4, connected to the conveyor belt 3 for transmission, driving the conveyor belt 3 to move; and a heating module 5, positioned above the conveyor belt 3. This embodiment incorporates a drying process during the bonding and discharge process, enabling rapid drying of the adhesive, shortening drying time, avoiding the long periods of static placement associated with traditional medical catheter air drying, and improving production efficiency. Simultaneously, the bonding and drying processes are integrated into a single device, reducing the occupation of production space, saving workstation and storage space, and adapting to the needs of modern production line layouts. This embodiment effectively prevents leakage or connector detachment of medical catheters due to undried adhesive, improving the sealing, safety, and reliability of the connection.

[0026] In the embodiments, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, it also includes an oven cover 6, with an open bottom, installed and covering the conveyor belt 3. The heating module 5 is installed on top of the oven cover 6. The oven cover 6 forms a relatively sealed space above the conveyor belt 3, creating a localized high-temperature drying space inside, which allows heat to be effectively concentrated, accelerating the drying process of the glue, significantly reducing energy consumption, and also weakening the impact of the heating module 5 on the external environment.

[0027] In the embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the heating module 5 heats via thermal convection. The heating module 5 includes a fan 7, an electric heating element 8, and a housing 9 arranged sequentially from top to bottom. An air inlet 10 is provided on the top of the oven cover 6 corresponding to the position of the heating module 5. The heating module 5 uses thermal convection, and the combined action of the fan 7 and the electric heating element 8 enhances airflow, allowing heat to be distributed more evenly across the surface of the medical catheter, ensuring rapid and uniform drying of the adhesive and preventing weak connections due to insufficient localized temperatures. The heating module 5 can also use thermal radiation, specifically infrared radiation lamps. This method offers high heating and heat transfer efficiency, lower energy consumption, and less noise compared to thermal convection. However, the drawbacks are poor reliability of infrared radiation lamps and high equipment maintenance costs.

[0028] In the embodiments, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the power unit 4 uses a variable frequency speed-adjustable motor. Using a variable frequency speed-adjustable motor as the power unit allows the speed of the conveyor belt 3 to be adjusted according to actual needs, providing flexibility and precision, effectively controlling the drying time of the adhesive, and meeting the process requirements of different batches of products.

[0029] In the embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple heating modules 5, evenly arranged along the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 3. The evenly arranged multiple heating modules 5 ensure that the medical catheter is adequately heated when passing through any area of ​​the conveyor belt 22, which helps to improve the overall drying effect and ensure high-quality product delivery.

[0030] In the embodiments, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the support 1 has a lug 11 at one end near the bonding device 2, and the lug 11 has an mounting elongated hole 12. This structure enhances the stability and adjustability of the support 1, ensuring accurate alignment and firmness of the equipment during bonding and drying, preventing medical catheters from falling out, and improving the safety and reliability of the equipment.

[0031] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Other obvious variations or modifications derived from the essential spirit of the present utility model still fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
