[0002] The neat arrangement and cleanliness of items within the clean area of a medical room are the most basic requirements for a clean environment. At the same time, the working environment of the clean area also has a certain psychological impact and suggestion on staff. In the process of developing this utility model, the inventors discovered that most hospitals currently distribute clothing in their clean areas manually. This involves manually verifying and registering medical personnel before distributing clothing. This method is inefficient, cumbersome, and results in long waiting times when multiple people are picking up clothing simultaneously. Furthermore, secondary contamination of clothing is unavoidable during manual distribution, which is detrimental to the cleanliness and dust-free requirements of the clean area and makes it impossible to track, manage, and trace the clothing.

A baffle 122 is provided on the garment retrieval opening 121, and the upper end of the baffle 122 is pivotally connected (transferred) to the upper end of the garment retrieval opening 121. Medical personnel open the garment retrieval opening 121 by flipping the baffle 122 from bottom to top and retrieve the medical surgical gowns through the garment retrieval opening 121. The garment retrieval opening 121 is a rectangular hole, and the baffle 122 is a rectangular plate. In this embodiment, the wardrobe body 1 also has a top wall and an opposite side wall (not shown in the figure), and the top wall, the two side walls, the front door 12, the rear wall 13, and the bottom wall 11 form a closed cabinet. Multiple rolling elements 14 are provided at the bottom of the wardrobe body 1, such as... Figure 1 As shown, there are four rolling elements 14, located at the four corners of the bottom wall 11 of the wardrobe body 1. The top wall, two side walls, front door 12, back wall 13, and bottom wall 11 can all be made of rectangular panels, and the rolling elements 14 can be made of rollers.
[0024] Storage mechanism 2 is located inside the wardrobe body 1. Storage mechanism 2 has multiple storage cylinders 21, which are horizontally positioned between the front door 12 and the rear wall 13. These cylinders store medical surgical gowns. The storage cylinders 21 are cylindrical, and it should be noted that they are just large enough to hold commonly available medical surgical gowns. This embodiment, by providing multiple storage cylinders 21 inside the wardrobe body 1, can reduce the frequency of adding clothes and further reduce the workload of management personnel.
[0025] The push rod mechanism 3 is located on the rear wall 13 of the wardrobe body 1. Please refer to the following: Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a storage cylinder and push rod mechanism according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the push rod mechanism 3 includes multiple push members 31, which correspond to multiple storage cylinders 21. The push members 31 can extend into the storage cylinders 21 to push the medical surgical gowns inside towards the front door 12. The push members 31 are electrically powered. In this embodiment, the push rod mechanism 3 also includes a push plate 32, which is connected to the push members 31. The push plate 32 is located on the side of the storage cylinder 21 facing away from the front door 12, as shown... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the pusher plate 32 is located on the right side of the storage cylinder 21. The pusher 31 pushes the medical surgical gowns inside the storage cylinder 21 toward the front door 12 by pushing the pusher plate 32 into the storage cylinder 21. The pusher plate 32 is a circular plate, the diameter of which is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the cylinder.
[0026] See also Figure 1 As shown, the personnel information processor 4 is mounted on the front door 12 of the wardrobe body 1 and is electrically connected to the push rod mechanism 3. The personnel information processor 4 identifies personnel information and, based on the identified information, controls one of the pushers 31 to extend into the corresponding storage cylinder 21, pushing the medical surgical garments in the corresponding storage cylinder 21 towards the front door 12, causing the medical surgical garments to fall onto the bottom wall 11 of the wardrobe body 1. In this embodiment, the personnel information identified by the personnel information processor 4 is the clothing size of the corresponding person. The personnel information processor 4 controls one of the pushers 31 to extend into the storage cylinder 21 containing medical surgical garments of the same size, pushing the medical surgical garments in the storage cylinder 21 towards the front door 12.
[0027] As described above, the personnel information processor 4 is equipped with an RFID module (not shown in the figure), which identifies personnel information. RFID is a type of automatic identification technology that uses wireless radio frequency for non-contact two-way data communication. It reads and writes recording media (electronic tags or RFID cards) using wireless radio frequency to achieve the purpose of identifying targets and exchanging data. The personnel information processor 4 identifies personnel information through the RFID module and controls the dispensing of medical surgical gowns from the storage cylinder 21, thus realizing a smart card-swiping gown dispensing mode and improving dispensing efficiency. The personnel information processor 4 also includes a facial recognition camera module (not shown in the figure), which identifies personnel information and controls the dispensing of medical surgical gowns from the storage cylinder 21, thus realizing a smart face-scanning gown dispensing mode. The RFID module and the facial recognition camera module can form two gown dispensing modes for the personnel information processor 4, improving dispensing efficiency.
[0028] See also Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the intelligent garment dispensing machine 100 is placed in the clean area of the clean changing room. The management personnel store medical surgical gowns of different sizes in multiple storage cylinders 21. Medical staff can identify their information through the personnel information processor. Based on the identified information, the personnel information processor controls one of the pushers to extend into the corresponding storage cylinder 21, pushing the medical surgical gowns in the corresponding storage cylinder 21 toward the front door 12, causing the medical surgical gowns to fall onto the bottom wall 11 of the wardrobe body 1. At this time, the medical staff can retrieve the medical surgical gowns through the retrieval port 121. This not only reduces the workload of the management personnel, but also improves the efficiency of garment dispensing, and is convenient and quick, providing a good user experience.
[0029] In addition, the personnel information processor 4 in this embodiment can also record garment distribution details and can operate continuously. Simultaneously, the personnel information processor 4 can also provide a blacklist mechanism, preventing medical personnel on the blacklist from receiving garments, thus better regulating the behavior of medical staff. The personnel information processor 4 can also wirelessly connect to the mobile phones or other electronic devices of management personnel, pushing abnormal situations of the intelligent garment dispensing machine 100 to the management personnel, and can also use on-site intelligent voice prompts for abnormal situations.
[0030] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the intelligent garment dispensing machine 100 also includes a weighing component 5. The weighing component 5 is located on the bottom wall 11 of the wardrobe body 1 and is electrically connected to the personnel information processor 4. After the pusher 31 pushes the medical surgical garments in the corresponding storage cylinder 21 towards the front door 12, the garments fall onto the weighing component 5. The weighing component 5 sends a signal to the personnel information processor 4. Upon receiving the signal, the personnel information processor 4 controls its display interface 41 to display a prompt message, which may include "Garment dispensing successful, please retrieve your garment," but is not limited to this. The display interface 41 of the personnel information processor 4 uses advanced touch technology and a graphical interface, and the weighing component 5 can use an electronic scale.
[0031] In summary, this invention provides an intelligent garment dispensing machine for clean changing rooms. This invention stores medical surgical gowns of different sizes in multiple storage bins. A personnel information processor identifies personnel information and, based on this information, controls a pusher to extend into the corresponding storage bin, pushing the surgical gowns towards the front door.
