[0019] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0020] Example 1: This embodiment provides an automatic folding and organizing machine for medical water-washing abdominal pads, including: Frame 1, equipped with feeding platform 2; The conveying mechanism is mounted on the frame 1 and includes a primary conveying component 3 and a secondary conveying component 4. The primary conveying component 3 extends to the loading platform 2 for conveying and loading a single abdominal pad, and the secondary conveying component 4 is used for conveying and unloading multiple abdominal pads after they are assembled. The folding mechanism is mounted on the frame 1 and located above the primary conveying assembly 3, and includes a primary folding assembly 5 and a secondary folding assembly 6, which are used for folding the abdominal pad in the length and width directions, respectively. The container mechanism 7 is mounted on the frame 1 and located on the side of the primary conveying assembly 3 away from the loading platform 2, and is used for stacking and bundling multiple abdominal pads; The feeding mechanism is installed on the frame 1 and includes a primary feeding component 8 and a secondary feeding component 9, which are used for feeding after the abdominal pads are stacked and after they are bundled, respectively. The pressing mechanism 10 is installed on the frame 1 and located above the secondary conveying assembly 4, and a pressing support frame 11 is correspondingly provided inside the secondary conveying assembly 4; Among them, the frame 1 is equipped with an emergency stop button and warning lights at the loading platform 2, which are all existing mature technologies and will not be described in detail here; Meanwhile, compression refers to a routine procedure in the medical field used to apply pressure to the abdominal pad to compact it, thereby facilitating subsequent packaging and other functions, which will not be elaborated here.

[0021] As can be seen from this embodiment, by adopting a folding mechanism, the abdominal pads are folded in both the length and width directions, thereby achieving automated folding. The container mechanism 7 achieves automated stacking and bundling of multiple abdominal pads, thereby achieving automated folding and sorting of the abdominal pads. Compared with manual labor, this effectively improves production efficiency. Moreover, there is no human intervention in the folding, stacking and bundling process, which effectively reduces secondary contamination of the abdominal pads, improves product quality and ensures product consistency. Furthermore, the primary conveying component 3, secondary conveying component 4, primary unloading component 8, and secondary unloading component 9 facilitate the automatic conveying of abdominal pads. Together with the folding structure and the container mechanism 7, they enable the automatic folding, stacking, and bundling of abdominal pads. The pressing mechanism 10 can compact the bundled abdominal pads, facilitating subsequent packaging and effectively ensuring production efficiency.

[0022] Example 2: This embodiment provides an automatic folding and sorting machine for medical water-washing abdominal pads. In addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features: the primary conveying component 3 includes: The first conveyor belt 30 is installed on the frame 1; The receiving plate 31 includes multiple long plates 310 and multiple short plates 311, with the multiple short plates 311 located between two adjacent long plates 310 and forming clearance grooves 312 at both ends; A shaping pin 32 is installed at both ends of a plurality of long plates 310 and is used for shaping when a single abdominal pad is placed. Each of the multiple long plates 310 and multiple short plates 311 is individually connected to the first conveyor belt 30, and the first conveyor belt 30 includes rollers and motors for driving its movement, which are existing mature technologies and will not be described in detail here. Meanwhile, the number of short plates 311 between two adjacent long plates 310 is determined by the size of the required clearance groove 312. This is a conventional operation that can be performed based on requirements in the prior art, and will not be described in detail here. Furthermore, the shaping pin 32 and the long plate 310 are fixedly connected. Specifically, a mounting block can be set at the bottom of the shaping pin 32, and the shaping pin 32 can be fixedly installed by the fixed connection between the mounting block and the long plate 310.

[0023] As can be seen from this embodiment, by setting the receiving plate 31 into multiple long plates 310 and multiple short plates 311, and connecting each of them individually to the first conveyor belt 30, the receiving plate 31 can easily follow the first conveyor belt 30 to move back and forth in a cyclical manner, adapting to the bending movement of the first conveyor belt 30. The setting of the long plates 310 and short plates 311 facilitates the formation of the clearance groove 312, thereby facilitating the subsequent clamping and gripping of the abdominal pad. The shaping pin 32 facilitates the shaping of the abdominal pad, ensuring the neatness of subsequent folding on the one hand, and avoiding the situation of missing the gripping and grasping when folding the abdominal pad on the other hand.

[0024] Example 3: This embodiment provides an automatic folding and organizing machine for medical water-washing abdominal pads. In addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features: the one-time folding component 5 includes: Two first supports 50 are provided on both sides of the primary conveying assembly 3 along the conveying direction perpendicular to the primary conveying assembly 3, and are slidably connected to the frame 1. The two first supports 50 can move closer or further away from each other under the drive. The first clamping member 51 is slidably connected to the first bracket 50; The second clamping member 52 is slidably connected to the first bracket 50; The first clamping member 51 and the second clamping member 52 can both move horizontally or vertically under the drive. Meanwhile, the first clamping member 51 and the second clamping member 52 can both be a first clamping plate, a second clamping plate and a cylinder, and the cylinder is slidably connected to the first bracket 50. The first clamping plate is fixed to the output end of the cylinder, and the second clamping plate is fixed to the cylinder. The cylinder drives the first clamping plate to move closer to or away from the second clamping plate. Furthermore, the first bracket 50, the first clamping member 51, and the second clamping member 52 can all be driven by a motor to drive the synchronous wheel to rotate, thereby driving the synchronous belt to achieve horizontal movement. The vertical movement of the first clamping member 51 and the second clamping member 52 is driven by a cylinder. The cylinder with the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate is located at the output end of the cylinder. A connecting frame can also be set between the two. In order to ensure the stability of horizontal and vertical movement, they can be slidably connected by a slider and a slide rail.

[0025] As can be seen from this embodiment, the first clamping member 51 and the second clamping member 52 are used to clamp the two sides of the abdominal pad along the length direction. First, the abdominal pad is straightened by the mutual separation of the first brackets 50. Then, the first clamping member 51 and the second clamping member 52 are moved vertically to create a misalignment. Subsequently, they are moved horizontally to move closer to each other, thus completing the folding of the abdominal pad. The structure is simple and the folding efficiency is high. As for the misalignment distance generated by the vertical movement and the horizontal distance between the first clamping member 51 and the second clamping member 52, they are preset according to different sizes of abdominal pads, and this application does not limit them.

[0026] Example 4: This embodiment provides an automatic folding and organizing machine for medical water-washing abdominal pads. In addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features: the secondary folding component 6 includes: The second bracket 60 is slidably connected to the frame 1 and can slide horizontally or vertically under the drive. A rotary cylinder 61 is mounted on the second bracket 60, and a clamping cylinder 62 is provided at the output end; The L-shaped bracket 63 includes a longitudinal arm 630 and a transverse arm 631, and the longitudinal arm 630 is mounted on the output end of the clamping cylinder 62. The U-shaped clamp 64 has its closed end connected to the transverse arm 631, and the transverse arm 631 is used for the eccentric arrangement of the U-shaped clamp 64. Two rotary cylinders 61 are provided and are staggered in the vertical direction; Meanwhile, the sliding connection between the second support 60 and the frame 1 can be achieved by using a cross slide, which is a mature existing technology and will not be elaborated here. Furthermore, the specific structures of the rotary cylinder 61 and the clamping cylinder 62 are existing mature technologies, and will not be described in detail here.

[0027] As can be seen in this embodiment, the horizontal movement of the second bracket 60 brings the U-shaped clamping plate 64 closer to the folded abdominal pad. Then, the clamping cylinder 62 drives the U-shaped clamping plate 64 to clamp through the L-shaped bracket 63. Finally, after the rotating cylinder 61 rotates, the abdominal pad is folded in the width direction. The L-shaped bracket 63 makes the U-shaped clamping plate 64 and the rotating cylinder 61 eccentrically set. Since the two rotating cylinders 61 are themselves staggered in the vertical direction, the two sets of U-shaped clamping plates 64 overlap after folding. On the one hand, this ensures a neat folded effect. On the other hand, the overlap of the two sets of U-shaped clamping plates 64 facilitates subsequent material handling, improves product quality and production convenience.

[0028] Example 5: This embodiment provides an automatic folding and organizing machine for medical water-washing abdominal pads, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features: The container mechanism 7 includes a stacking assembly 70, a pressing assembly 71, and a strapping assembly 72; The stacking assembly 70 includes a third support 700 and a guide plate 701. The third support 700 is mounted on the frame 1 and forms a storage cavity 702 for storing the abdominal pad. The guide plate 701 is slidably connected to the storage cavity 702 on the side away from the primary conveying assembly 3. The pressing assembly 71 includes a fourth bracket 710, a first pressing plate 711 and a support plate 712. The fourth bracket 710 is mounted on the frame 1, and the first pressing plate 711 can extend into the storage cavity 702 under the drive. The support plate 712 can move up and down along the storage cavity 702 under the drive. The strapping assembly 72 includes a strapping machine 720 and a strapping tape rack 721 mounted on the frame 1, and is used to strap multiple abdominal pads; The specific structures of the strapping machine 720 and the strapping tape rack 721 are both existing mature technologies, and will not be described in detail here. Meanwhile, the first pressure plate 711 and the support plate 712 can both be driven by cylinders, which is a conventional driving method, and will not be described in detail here.

[0029] As can be seen from this embodiment, the guide plate 701 facilitates the introduction of the abdominal pad into the storage cavity 702. The lifting and lowering mechanism of the guide plate 701 facilitates the insertion of the loosened U-shaped clamp 64 when it is raised. After the second support 60 moves, the abdominal pad is pushed off the U-shaped clamp 64 and pressed down by the first pressure plate 711, allowing the abdominal pad to enter the storage cavity 702. Subsequently, the guide plate 701 descends to avoid obstructing the movement of the second support 60. It is also worth mentioning that the abdominal pad usually has a strip. The descent of the guide plate 701 can reduce the possibility of snagging on the strip and avoid tearing the strip. The support plate 712 facilitates the preset number of abdominal pads to be stacked. The strapping machine 720 facilitates the strapping of the abdominal pads that have been stacked and fed by the primary feeding component 8, while the strapping tape rack 721 facilitates the supply of strapping tape to the strapping machine 720.

[0030] Example 6: This embodiment provides an automatic folding and sorting machine for medical washable abdominal pads. In addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features: the primary feeding component 8 includes: The third clamping member 80 is movably mounted on the frame 1 and can move horizontally or rotate around a preset axis under drive, and is used to transfer multiple stacked belly pads to the strapping machine 720. The pusher plate 81 is embedded in the inner wall of the receiving cavity 702 and is used to push the multiple abdominal pads stacked on the support plate 712 into the output end of the third clamping member 80. The third clamping member 80 has the same structure as the first clamping member 51 and the second clamping member 52, that is, it adopts a cylinder, a first clamping plate and a second clamping plate. The first clamping plate is fixed to the output end of the cylinder, and the second clamping plate is fixed on the cylinder. The cylinder drives the first clamping plate to move closer to or away from the second clamping plate. Meanwhile, the horizontal movement of the third clamping member 80 and the driving of the pusher plate 81 can both be driven by cylinders, and the rotation around the preset axis can be driven by a hollow rotary platform. These are all existing mature technologies, and will not be elaborated here.

[0031] As can be seen from this embodiment, the third clamping member 80 clamps the stacked abdominal pads, making it easier to transfer the abdominal pads to the strapping machine 720, while the pusher plate 81 makes it easier to push the abdominal pads into the third clamping member 80, thus facilitating the clamping of the third clamping member 80.

[0032] Example 7: This embodiment provides an automatic folding and sorting machine for medical water-washable abdominal pads. In addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features: the secondary feeding component 9 includes: The fifth bracket 90 is movably mounted on the frame 1 and can move horizontally or vertically under drive. The material-pushing rod 91 is installed on the fifth support 90 and is used to push the multiple bundled abdominal pads onto the secondary conveying assembly 4 when the fifth support 90 moves. The horizontal movement of the fifth bracket 90 can be driven by a motor and a lead screw transmission assembly, while its vertical movement can be driven by a cylinder. The material-pulling rod 91 can also be connected to the fifth bracket 90 by a cylinder, thereby realizing the horizontal movement of the material-pulling rod 91. Meanwhile, in order to ensure that the push rod 91 can better push the abdominal pad, two push rods can be used, and the distance between the two push rods 91 should be greater than the width distance of the third clamping member 80 and less than the width distance of the abdominal pad.

[0033] As can be seen from this embodiment, the horizontal and vertical movement of the fifth support 90 and the horizontal movement of the material-pulling rod 91 facilitate the transfer of the bundled abdominal pad to the secondary conveying assembly 4 via the material-pulling rod 91. Specifically, the material-pulling rod 91 moves horizontally over the bundled abdominal pad, and then the fifth support 90 moves vertically so that the material-pulling rod 91 is located on the side of the bundled abdominal pad. Then the fifth support 90 moves horizontally, thereby pushing the bundled abdominal pad onto the secondary conveying assembly 4 through the material-pulling rod 91. The system employs a motor and lead screw drive assembly to ensure the stability of the material pusher 91 in pushing the abdominal pad. The horizontal movement of the material pusher 91 and the vertical movement of the fifth support 90 are achieved using cylinders, which are simple in structure, ensure driving efficiency, and improve production efficiency.

[0034] Example 8: This embodiment provides an automatic folding and sorting machine for medical water-washing abdominal pads. In addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features: the secondary conveying component 4 includes: The second conveyor belt 40 is installed on the frame 1; The third conveyor belt 41 is installed on the side of the second conveyor belt 40 away from the feeding mechanism; The pressing mechanism 10 is located on the third conveyor belt 41, and the pressing support frame 11 is installed inside the third conveyor belt 41. Meanwhile, both the second conveyor belt 40 and the third conveyor belt 41 include rollers and motors for driving their movement, which are existing mature technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0035] As can be seen in this embodiment, by dividing the secondary conveying component 4 into a second conveyor belt 40 and a third conveyor belt 41, it is convenient to temporarily store the bundled abdominal pads on the third conveyor belt 41. After reaching a preset number, the pads are then pressed, avoiding frequent starts of the pressing mechanism 10 and reducing energy consumption. Specifically, the bundled abdominal pads are pushed into the third conveyor belt 41 by the second conveyor belt 40, and then the third conveyor belt 41 starts, moves a distance equal to the length of one abdominal pad, and then stops until the second abdominal pad enters the third conveyor belt 41. After reaching the preset number, the third conveyor belt 41 drives the group of abdominal pads to the pressing mechanism 10 for pressing.

[0036] Example 9: This embodiment provides an automatic folding and sorting machine for medical water-washing abdominal pads. In addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, it also has the following technical features: the pressing mechanism 10 includes: The second pressing plate 100 is lifted and installed on the frame 1, and can be driven to approach or move away from the pressing support frame 11. The third pressure plate 101 is installed on both sides of the third conveyor belt 41 and can move closer or further apart from each other in the horizontal direction under the drive. Wherein, the length of the second pressing plate 100 along the direction perpendicular to the movement of the third conveyor belt 41 is less than or equal to the minimum distance between the two third pressing plates 101 when they are close to each other; Meanwhile, the second pressure plate 100 can be driven by a hydraulic cylinder, while the third pressure plate 101 can be driven by a pneumatic cylinder. Their specific structures are all existing mature technologies, and will not be described in detail here.

[0037] As can be seen from this embodiment, the second pressing plate 100 facilitates the pressing and wrapping of the bundled abdominal pad, while the third pressing plate 101 facilitates the shaping of the dimensions of the bundled abdominal pad in the width direction, improves the edge pressing effect, and ensures the convenience of subsequent packaging.

[0038] Example 10: This embodiment provides a production method for an automatic folding and sorting machine for medical water-washable abdominal pads, including the following steps: S1: The single abdominal pad is unfolded and laid flat on the receiving plate 31 by the feeding platform 2, and the abdominal pad is shaped by the shaping needle 32. S2: The first conveyor belt 30 moves to the folding mechanism, where it is clamped and lifted by the primary folding component 5 and the secondary folding component 6. At the same time, the two first supports 50 move away from each other to straighten the abdominal pad. S3: The first clamping member 51 and the second clamping member 52 are misaligned in the vertical direction and move closer to each other to fold the abdominal pad once. S4: The second support 60 moves and drives the clamping cylinder 62 to approach the abdominal pad. The U-shaped clamping plate 64 clamps the abdominal pad after one fold, and the two rotating cylinders 61 rotate in sequence to fold the abdominal pad a second time. S5: The second support 60 moves, and the stacking component 70 stacks a preset number of abdominal pads in the storage cavity 702. Then, the stacked abdominal pads are moved to the binding component 72 for binding by the feeding component 8. S6: The bundled abdominal pad is moved to the secondary conveying component 4 via the secondary feeding component 9; S7: The pressing mechanism 10 presses several tied abdominal pads together; S8: Pack the compressed abdominal pads into warehouse and repeat S1-S8.

[0039] As can be seen from this embodiment, through the above production method, the washed and wrinkled abdominal pads are simply laid on the receiving plate 31 by hand and shaped by the shaping pins 32. Then, the folding and sorting machine can automatically fold, stack, bundle and compress them, which effectively improves production efficiency and reduces secondary pollution that may be introduced during manual operation. At the same time, the folded abdominal pads have good uniformity, which effectively ensures the consistency of product quality. Before the first fold, the two first supports 50 are moved away from each other to straighten the abdominal pad and improve the neatness of the fold. The vertical misalignment of the first clamp 51 and the second clamp 52 facilitates the Z-shaped folding of the abdominal pad, effectively ensuring the efficiency and neatness of the first fold. Then, the rotating cylinder 61 drives the eccentric U-shaped clamp 64 to fold the abdominal pad a second time after the first fold, ensuring the efficiency and neatness of the second fold. It should be noted that, in addition to the Z-shaped single fold and the sequential flipping double fold mentioned in this application, sequential flipping single fold and Z-shaped double fold, or Z-shaped single fold and Z-shaped double fold, or sequential flipping single fold and sequential flipping double fold can also be used. That is, the installation positions of the single folding component 5 and the double folding component 6 can be interchanged and selected (it should be noted that when the sequential flipping fold is applied to the single fold, two sets need to be set, located on both sides of the first conveyor belt 30, while when the Z-shaped fold is applied to the double fold, only a single set is set) to achieve different folding methods, all of which are within the scope of protection claimed by this application.
