[0035] See Figures 1-7 As shown, this utility model provides an operating room consumables storage rack, which mainly includes a frame 1, a connector 2, a cantilever 3, a mounting base 4, a display terminal 5, and an image acquisition module 6. The frame 1 can be constructed from profiles and is used to place operating room consumables. When placing consumables on the frame 1, labels can be affixed to the consumables to make it easier for staff to find the required consumables. The connector 2 is fixedly connected to the frame 1. One end of the cantilever 3 is pivotally connected to the connector 2 via a first pivot 7, and the mounting base 4 is pivotally connected to the other end of the cantilever 3 via a second pivot 8. The display terminal 5 includes a housing 501 fixedly connected to the mounting base 4, a touch screen 502 embedded in the surface of the housing 501, a processor 503 and a memory 504 disposed within the housing 501. The image acquisition module 6 is electrically connected to the display terminal 5 and is used to collect label information of the consumables and transmit the collected label information to the processor 503.

[0036] In use, the cantilever 3 can rotate around the first pivot 7, allowing it to swing 180 degrees in front of the frame 1. The mounting base 4 and the display terminal 5 fixed thereon can rotate around the second pivot 8, allowing the display terminal 5 to rotate nearly 360 degrees relative to the cantilever 3. Therefore, the position of the display terminal 5 is more flexible, and its angle can be adjusted arbitrarily. The memory 504 of the display terminal 5 can pre-store information related to consumables, such as instructions for use, precautions, and usage videos. It can also store information related to consumables commonly used by various attending physicians in the hospital.

[0037] After receiving the necessary consumables, staff can hold them in front of the image acquisition module 6 to identify the tags on the consumables. The image acquisition module 6 transmits the acquired tag information to the processor 503, which processes the received tag information and determines what type of consumable the staff has taken. Then, it displays information related to the consumable on the touchscreen 502, such as the aforementioned instructions for use, precautions, and usage videos. Figure 8 As shown, staff can selectively view information related to consumables, which helps them to better understand the consumables they have received.

[0038] See Figure 9As shown, during the preoperative consumable preparation process, medical staff can enter the surgeon's name on the touchscreen 502. The touchscreen 502 will then display a list of surgical consumables that the surgeon typically uses. Medical staff can then prepare the necessary consumables based on this list, making the process more convenient. Furthermore, as medical staff retrieve consumables, the image acquisition module 6 can highlight the corresponding item on the item list (or change the font color of the corresponding item) whenever it detects a consumable. (See [link to relevant documentation]). Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, this helps medical staff know which consumables have not yet been retrieved, thus avoiding the need for them to retrieve consumables repeatedly or to miss any consumables.

[0039] The operating room consumables shelf provided by this utility model, by setting a display terminal 5 on the shelf body 1, helps medical staff to quickly and accurately find the corresponding consumables, making it more convenient to use. Furthermore, the angle of the display terminal 5 on the operating room consumables shelf is adjustable. When medical staff are retrieving items from a distance from the display terminal 5, they can adjust the angle in advance, so that they can clearly see the content displayed on the touch screen 502 from a distance and find the required items based on the information displayed on the touch screen 502, further improving the ease of use of this operating room consumables shelf.

[0040] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the frame 1 in this embodiment includes four vertical rods 101 and shelves 102. The vertical rods 101 are perpendicular to the ground, and the four shelves 102 are parallel to the horizontal plane and connected to the vertical rods 101. In other embodiments, the number of vertical rods 101 and shelves 102 can be increased or decreased as needed. See also Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, both the first pivot 7 and the second pivot 8 are perpendicular to the horizontal plane, which allows the cantilever 3 to swing in a plane parallel to the horizontal plane.

[0041] In some embodiments, the operating room consumables shelf further includes a placement plate 13 movably connected to the shelf body 1. The placement plate 13 has a first position parallel to the horizontal plane and a second position perpendicular to the horizontal plane. See [link to image] for the state of the placement plate 13 in the first position. Figure 1 As shown, the placement board 13 can be used to temporarily store retrieved items, making it more convenient to use. Furthermore, by placing the retrieved items in a separate area, staff can avoid confusing them with items already placed on shelf 1. See [link to image] for the state of placement board 13 in its second position. Figure 2 As shown, the placement plate 13 is folded at this time, which helps to reduce the space occupied.

[0042] See Figure 6 As shown, to enable the placement plate 13 to move between the first and second positions, the frame 1 is provided with a horizontal third pivot 9. The placement plate 13 is connected to the third pivot 9 and can rotate around the third pivot 9. The operating room consumables shelf also includes a first support rod 14, a second support rod 15, and a connecting seat 16. One end of the first support rod 14 is pivotally connected to the vertical rod 101 via a fourth pivot 10. The other end of the first support rod 14 is pivotally connected to one end of the second support rod 15 via a fifth pivot 11. The other end of the second support rod 15 is pivotally connected to the connecting seat 16 via a sixth pivot 12. The connecting seat 16 is made of metal plate bent into an L-shape, or L-shaped steel can be used directly. A circular hole is provided on the connecting seat 16 for the sixth pivot 12 to pass through. The connecting seat 16 is fixedly connected to the placement plate 13 by screws. The fourth pivot 10, the fifth pivot 11, and the sixth pivot 12 are all parallel to the third pivot 9.

[0043] In order to allow the placement plate 13 to be suspended in the first position, the vertical rod 101, the first support rod 14, the second support rod 15, and the connecting seat 16 can be pre-tightened to each other; in other embodiments, pins can also be provided on the first support rod 14 and the second support rod 15. When the first support rod 14 and the second support rod 15 are collinear, the placement plate 13 can be locked in the first position by having the pin pass through the first support rod 14 and the second support rod 15 at the same time. After the pin is pulled out, the placement plate 13 can be manually folded to the second position.

[0044] See Figure 1 As shown, connector 2 and third pivot 9 are connected to the same vertical rod 101. Third pivot 9 is located below connector 2, and fourth pivot 10 is located below third pivot 9. In use, consumables can be easily placed on the placement plate 13 after being recognized by the image acquisition module 6, further enhancing convenience.

[0045] In some embodiments, the operating room consumables shelf further includes a light strip 17, a human body sensor 18, and a controller 19. The light strip 17 is disposed below the shelf 102. The human body sensor 18 and the controller 19 are both fixedly connected to the shelf body 1, and both the human body sensor 18 and the light strip 17 are electrically connected to the controller 19. See also Figure 1 As shown, the human body sensor 18 is installed in the middle of the top shelf 102. In practice, the position of the human body sensor 18 can be adjusted appropriately. Since no items are placed under the bottom shelf 102, the light strip 17 does not need to be installed under the bottom shelf 102. When a worker approaches a shelf, the human body sensor 18 detects the approaching person, and then the controller 19 controls the light strip 17 to be powered on, providing the worker with a bright field of vision, which facilitates the search for items.

[0046] Due to the manufacturing process of the frame 1 and the flatness of the ground, the frame 1 may not be stable enough if placed directly on the ground. To ensure that the frame 1 can be placed stably on the ground, foot cups 20 can be installed at the lower end of the vertical rod 101. The balance of the frame 1 can be adjusted by adjusting the foot cups 20.

[0047] See Figure 5 As shown, the connector 2 includes a first buckle plate 201 and a second buckle plate 202. The second buckle plate 202 is connected to the first buckle plate 201, and one of the vertical rods 101 is sandwiched between the first buckle plate 201 and the second buckle plate 202. An ear plate 203 is provided on at least one of the first buckle plate 201 and the second buckle plate 202, and the cantilever 3 is pivotally connected to the ear plate 203 through a first pivot 7.

[0048] In some embodiments, both the first buckle plate 201 and the second buckle plate 202 are provided with ear plates 203 and grooves for accommodating the vertical rod 101, and one end of the cantilever 3 is located between the ear plates 203 on the first buckle plate 201 and the ear plates 203 on the second buckle plate 202. See Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, when the vertical rod 101 is made of a round tube, the grooves on the first buckle plate 201 and the second buckle plate 202 are semi-cylindrical shapes that match the round tube. The first buckle plate 201 and the second buckle plate 202 can be connected by fasteners such as bolts 204. The height of the display terminal 5 can be adjusted by loosening the fasteners. After the first buckle plate 201 and the second buckle plate 202 are assembled together, the ear plate 203 on the first buckle plate 201 and the ear plate 203 on the second buckle plate 202 are parallel to each other. Both the ear plate 203 and the cantilever 3 are provided with round holes for the first pivot 7 to pass through.

[0049] like Figure 4 As shown, two sets of fasteners used to connect the first buckle plate 201 and the second buckle plate 202 use wing nuts 205, so that workers can easily adjust the height of the display terminal 5 without the need for tools.

[0050] In practical implementation, the display terminal 5 in this invention can be a tablet computer, and the image acquisition module 6 can be a camera module. In actual use, the display terminal 5 can also be connected to the doctor's smartphone via a network or other means. In this case, the doctor can remotely send the necessary consumables to the display terminal 5 via their mobile phone, further enhancing convenience.

[0051] It should be noted that when multiple shelves 1 are placed in the storage room at the same time, only one shelf 1 needs to be equipped with the aforementioned display terminal 5 and placement board 13. It is not necessary to equip each shelf 1 with them. This helps to reduce the cost of use and facilitates rapid promotion in various hospitals.
