Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical assistive device technology, specifically relating to a medical glove dispensing device. Background Technology
[0002] Sterile medical gloves are medical devices designed to prevent bacterial infection. They are primarily used in operating rooms, examination rooms, treatment rooms, and other medical settings, as well as in the daily work of healthcare professionals. These gloves are used to prevent healthcare workers from contracting bacteria after contact with patients. Medical gloves are typically stored in a dedicated container in the department, with the gloves placed from the top and retrieved from the bottom to prevent the gloves from expiring due to prolonged unuse. However, medical gloves come in different sizes, and different hand shapes require different glove sizes. Gloves that are too small may feel tight, while gloves that are too large may not fit snugly and hinder the healthcare worker's operation. Since the aforementioned container is typically used by placing the gloves directly into it, it may not be possible to retrieve the correct glove at once. Furthermore, the remaining glove capacity of the container needs to be manually monitored during use; if insufficient gloves are not detected in time, it will affect the efficiency of the healthcare worker in retrieving gloves. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a medical glove dispensing device, which aims to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0020] Please see Figures 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution: a medical glove dispensing device, including a base plate 1, a plurality of placement boxes 2 are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1, a fixing plate 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of each placement box 2, a strip-shaped outlet 4 is opened on the front of the placement box 2 at the top of the fixing plate 3, the bottom of the strip-shaped outlet 4 is at the same level as the top of the fixing plate 3, a through strip-shaped slot 5 is opened in the middle of the fixing plate 3, a stepper motor 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the placement box 2, the output shaft of the stepper motor 6 is fixedly connected to a drive wheel 7, the drive wheel 7 is set in the strip-shaped slot 5 and the top of the drive wheel 7 is higher than the fixing plate 3.
[0021] In this embodiment, the surface of the drive wheel 7 is provided with a plurality of anti-slip protrusions 8.
[0022] Specifically, the anti-slip protrusions 8 increase the friction with the bottom of the sterile glove pack, making it easier to send the sterile glove pack out through the strip outlet 4.
[0023] In this embodiment, a dust cover 9 is hinged to the top of the placement box 2.
[0024] Specifically, the dust cover 9 prevents dust from accumulating on the surface of the top sterile glove pack.
[0025] In this embodiment, the surface of the fixing plate 3 is embedded with the transmitting end of the infrared beam switch 10, and the bottom end of the dust cover 9 is fixedly connected to the receiving end of the infrared beam switch 10. The receiving end of the infrared beam switch 10 is located directly above the transmitting end of the infrared beam switch 10.
[0026] Specifically, when there are still sterile gloves in the placement box 2, the sterile gloves will block the infrared rays emitted by the transmitter of the infrared beam switch 10. When the sterile gloves in the placement box 2 are completely removed, the transmitter of the infrared beam switch 10 emits infrared rays, which are received by the receiver of the infrared beam switch 10. At this time, the controller 15 controls the alarm 17 to sound to remind the staff to add sterile gloves in time.
[0027] In this embodiment, each placement box 2 has a strip-shaped observation window 11 on the top of the strip-shaped outlet 4 on its front side, and an information sticking area 12 is provided on the side of the strip-shaped observation window 11.
[0028] Specifically, the strip observation window 11 allows staff to visually observe the quantity of sterile gloves in the storage box 2, while the information sticker area 12 allows staff to attach the size information of the sterile gloves in the storage box 2 to the surface, thus facilitating medical staff to quickly retrieve the corresponding size of medical gloves.
[0029] In this embodiment, a mounting plate 13 is fixedly connected to the back of the base plate 1, and mounting holes 14 are provided on the surface of the mounting plate 13.
[0030] Specifically, the mounting holes 14 and mounting plate 13 enable the dispensing device to be mounted on the wall, making it easier to use.
[0031] In this embodiment, a controller 15 is installed at the bottom of each placement box 2. A control button 16 and an alarm 17 are fixedly connected to the bottom front of each placement box 2. The control button 16, the alarm 17 and the infrared beam switch 10 are electrically connected to the corresponding controller 15. The controller 15 is electrically connected to the corresponding stepper motor 6.
[0032] Specifically, the stepper motor 6 is controlled to rotate by the control button 16, and the stepper motor 6 is controlled to rotate one revolution at a time by the controller 15 (the method of controlling the number of revolutions of the stepper motor 6 at a time is the prior art and will not be described in detail in this application), so as to realize the use of one sterile glove pack at a time. The alarm 17 is set to trigger an alarm after all sterile gloves have been used to prompt staff to add gloves in time.
[0033] Working principle: Medical staff press the control button 16 on the front of the placement box 2 containing gloves of the corresponding size. At this time, the corresponding controller 15 controls the stepper motor 6 to rotate one revolution. The stepper motor 6 drives the drive wheel 7 to rotate and transport the gloves at the bottom of the placement box 2. The anti-slip protrusions 8 increase the friction with the bottom of the sterile glove pack, making it easier to deliver the sterile glove pack through the strip outlet 4 for medical staff to pick up. The infrared photoelectric switch 10 detects the use of the gloves. When all the gloves in the placement box 2 have been used, the controller 15 controls the alarm 17 to sound to remind the staff to add sterile gloves in time.
[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
