The third auxiliary conveyor belt 7 and the fourth auxiliary conveyor belt 8 are located on the same straight line but their conveying directions are opposite. A first sorting mechanism 3 and a second sorting mechanism 4 are fixedly installed on the top of the inner cavity of the disinfection chamber 1. The two sorting mechanisms 4, the first sorting mechanism 3 and the second sorting mechanism 4 have the same function. The first sorting mechanism 3 includes a parallel robot 31 and a vacuum suction cup assembly 32. The vacuum suction cup assembly 32 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the parallel robot 31. The first sorting mechanism 3 is located between the second auxiliary conveyor belt 6 and the third auxiliary conveyor belt 7. The second sorting mechanism 4 is located between the first auxiliary conveyor belt 5 and the fourth auxiliary conveyor belt 8. The second auxiliary conveyor belt 6 and the third auxiliary conveyor belt 7 extend through one end of the disinfection chamber 1. The first auxiliary conveyor belt 5 and the fourth auxiliary conveyor belt 8 extend through the other end of the disinfection chamber 1.

[0023] The specific setup and function of this embodiment are described below: The items to be disinfected are placed into the main conveyor belt 2 from one end. As the main conveyor belt 2 operates, the items are slowly transported into the disinfection chamber 1 for disinfection. The first sorting mechanism 3 and the second sorting mechanism 4 are located at the one-quarter and three-quarters positions of the main conveyor belt 2, respectively. The camera equipment inside the disinfection chamber 1 captures and identifies images of the items to be disinfected. The first sorting mechanism 3 and the second sorting mechanism 4 sort different items according to pre-defined rules. The first sorting mechanism 3 is located between the second auxiliary conveyor belt 6 and the third auxiliary conveyor belt 7. The conveying direction of both the second auxiliary conveyor belt 6 and the third auxiliary conveyor belt 7 is towards one end of the main conveyor belt 2. The parallel robot 31 controls the movement of the vacuum suction cup assembly 32. After suctioning the items, the items are sorted onto the second auxiliary conveyor belt 6 or the third auxiliary conveyor belt 7 under the traction of the parallel robot 31. The second sorting mechanism 4 is located in the middle of the first auxiliary conveyor belt 5 and the fourth auxiliary conveyor belt 8. The conveying direction of the first auxiliary conveyor belt 5 and the fourth auxiliary conveyor belt 8 is towards the other end of the main conveyor belt 2. The structure and function of the second sorting mechanism 4 are the same as those of the first sorting mechanism 3, sorting the items onto the first auxiliary conveyor belt 5 or the fourth auxiliary conveyor belt 8. In this way, the first sorting mechanism 3 and the second sorting mechanism 4 can perform sorting work at different positions, improve work efficiency, and meet the needs of efficient disinfection work in hospitals.

[0024] Example 2: Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, the vacuum suction cup assembly 32 includes a mounting plate frame 321, a micro air pump 322, a connecting pipe 323, a threaded plug 324, a single-pass pipe 325, a vacuum suction cup 326, and a U-shaped clamp 327. The lower end of the parallel robot 31 is fixedly connected to the upper middle part of the mounting plate frame 321. The micro air pump 322 is fixedly installed on the upper side of the mounting plate frame 321. The connecting pipe 323 is fixedly connected to the air port of the micro air pump 322. The threaded plug 324 is threadedly connected to the port of the single-pass pipe 325. The vacuum suction cup 326 is threadedly connected to the lower side of the single-pass pipe 325. The single-pass pipe 325 is fixedly installed on the lower side of the mounting plate frame 321 by the U-shaped clamp 327.

[0025] The overall effect of this embodiment is as follows: the parallel robot 31 controls the vacuum suction cup assembly 32 to move above the item and press down. The vacuum suction cup 326 is compressed after contacting the item, and at the same time, the micro air pump 322 is activated, drawing air from the inside of the single-pass tube 325 through the connecting tube 323 and the threaded plug 324, so that the inside of the vacuum suction cup 326 is in a negative pressure state, sucking up the item. Under the traction of the parallel robot 31, the disinfected items are sorted. The threaded plug 324 is screwed into the opening of the single-pass tube 325 in the form of threads, which facilitates disassembly and replacement. The lower side of the single-pass tube 325 has multiple outlets, and the vacuum suction cups 326 are screwed into the outlets in the form of threads. The number of vacuum suction cups 326 is reasonably set according to the different volumes, shapes and weights of the items to be sorted. The vacuum suction cups 326 that are not connected are sealed with plugs to ensure stable suction.

[0026] The device's operation and working principle are as follows: The items to be disinfected are placed into the main conveyor belt 2 from one end. As the main conveyor belt 2 operates, the items are slowly transported into the disinfection chamber 1 for disinfection. The first sorting mechanism 3 and the second sorting mechanism 4 are located at the one-quarter and three-quarters positions of the main conveyor belt 2, respectively. Cameras inside the disinfection chamber 1 capture and identify images of the items to be disinfected. The first sorting mechanism 3 and the second sorting mechanism 4 sort different items according to pre-defined rules. The first sorting mechanism 3 is located between the second auxiliary conveyor belt 6 and the third auxiliary conveyor belt 7. The conveying direction of both the second auxiliary conveyor belt 6 and the third auxiliary conveyor belt 7 is towards one end of the main conveyor belt 2. The parallel robot 31 controls the vacuum suction cup assembly 32 to move above the items and press them downwards. When the vacuum suction cup 326 comes into contact with the item, it is compressed. At the same time, the micro air pump 322 is activated, and air is drawn out from the single-pass pipe 325 through the connecting pipe 323 and the threaded plug 324, so that the vacuum suction cup 326 is in a negative pressure state, which sucks up the item. Under the traction of the parallel robot 31, the disinfected item is sorted onto the second auxiliary conveyor belt 6 or the third auxiliary conveyor belt 7 to complete the sorting. The second sorting mechanism 4 is located in the middle of the first auxiliary conveyor belt 5 and the fourth auxiliary conveyor belt 8. The conveying direction of the first auxiliary conveyor belt 5 and the fourth auxiliary conveyor belt 8 is towards the other end of the main conveyor belt 2. The structure and function of the second sorting mechanism 4 are the same as those of the first sorting mechanism 3, except that the number of vacuum suction cups 326 is different. In this way, the first sorting mechanism 3 and the second sorting mechanism 4 achieve sorting work at different positions.

[0027] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
