[0021] 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.

[0022] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a dental material intelligent storage cabinet, including a shell 8. The inner side of the shell 8 is provided with a ceramic plate storage area and a material box storage area. The ceramic plate storage area is provided with several indicator components for indicating whether materials are stored. The material box storage area is provided with several identification components for identifying material box information. The shell 8 is provided with a laser barcode scanner 6 and a material feeding identifier 7. The shell 8 is equipped with an operation button 3 for controlling the intelligent storage cabinet to start, pause, and stop. The indicator components, identification components, laser barcode scanner 6, material feeding identifier 7, and operation button 3 are electrically connected to a control system 1, which is installed on the shell 8.

[0024] When storing ceramic trays and material boxes, this invention uses a feeding identifier 7 to identify the relevant information of the corresponding material box and then transmits the information to the control system 1. When the material box 2 is placed in the material box storage area, the identification component checks whether the corresponding material box 2 is placed in the correct position. The laser barcode scanner 6 scans the QR code information on the ceramic tray and transmits the information to the control system 1. When the ceramic tray is placed in the corresponding position, the indicator component senses the ceramic tray to determine whether the corresponding ceramic tray is placed in the correct position and displays the corresponding indication. The operation button 3 is used to control the start, pause, and stop of the entire intelligent storage cabinet. By setting up the corresponding feeding identifier 7, laser barcode scanner 6, and indicator and identification components, accurate indication and storage of materials can be achieved, bringing great convenience to actual use and operation.

[0025] The scheme is further optimized. The indicating component includes a ceramic plate storage plate 11. Several sensor mounting slots 1102 are formed on the top surface of the ceramic plate storage plate 11. Sensors for identifying whether a ceramic plate 4 is placed are installed in the sensor mounting slots 1102. Several indicator lights 1101 are installed on the side wall of the ceramic plate storage plate 11. The sensor mounting slots 1102 correspond one-to-one with the indicator lights 1101. Several slots 1103 are formed on the top surface of the ceramic plate storage plate 11. Several ceramic plate storage plates 11 are arranged vertically at equal intervals along the ceramic plate storage area. The ceramic plate 4 is installed in the disk rack. An identification code is affixed to one side of the disk rack. The disk rack is inserted into the slot 1103. The indicator lights 1101, sensors, and control system 1 are electrically connected. A magnet mounting slot 1104 is also formed on the ceramic plate storage plate 11. The disk rack is an iron support. A magnet is installed in the magnet mounting slot 1104 on the ceramic plate storage plate 11, so that when the disk rack is placed in position, it will be attracted to the ceramic plate storage plate 11 by the magnet.

[0026] The sensor can be an Omron sensor. When the ceramic plate 4 is placed in the corresponding slot 1103, the induction coil and the corresponding sensor will sense each other, and it can be determined whether the ceramic plate 4 has been placed in the corresponding position.

[0027] The scheme has been further optimized so that each indicator light 1101 includes at least two colors, namely green and red.

[0028] Indicator light 1101: Green indicates that the placement is correct, red indicates that the placement is incorrect, and no color indicates that no material is stored.

[0029] The scheme is further optimized. The identification component includes a material box storage plate 10. The top surface of the material box storage plate 10 is provided with several material box storage slots 1002. An RFID sensor for identifying the material box 2 is installed in the material box storage slot 1002. A QR code 1001 is affixed to the side wall of the material box storage plate 10. The QR code 1001 corresponds one-to-one with the material box storage slot 1002. The RFID sensor is electrically connected to the control system 1.

[0030] The material identification device 7 determines what kind of material is placed in the material box 2. When the material box 2 is placed inside the material box storage slot 1002, the material RFID sensor and the material box 2 sense each other to determine whether the placement position is correct.

[0031] The design is further optimized by installing safety light curtains 5 on the two vertical sides of the outer casing 8, and the safety light curtains 5 are electrically connected to the control system 1.

[0032] Safety light curtain 5 is used to protect on-site personnel. If an object enters the range of the smart cabinet while the equipment is working, a buzzer alarm will sound and the operation will be suspended to ensure personnel safety.

[0033] The design has been further optimized, with foot cups installed at the four corners of the bottom of the outer shell 8.

[0034] The solution has been further optimized, and the material feeder 7 has been upgraded to an RFID reader.
