Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device and automated equipment technology, and in particular to a dual-station test tube labeling device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, existing test tube labeling equipment on the market has certain limitations in its structural design and working principle. These devices typically only have a single labeling module, meaning that labeling is done through a single mechanism. Since a single labeling module can only process one test tube at a time, and after labeling one tube, it requires removing the tube, inserting the next, and resetting the labeling module, this significantly increases the time interval between adjacent tubes, resulting in low labeling efficiency.

[0003] Meanwhile, before the test tubes enter the labeling station, they need to be placed manually or by auxiliary mechanisms according to specific postures and spacing to ensure that the labeling module can operate accurately. However, existing equipment lacks an efficient test tube delivery mechanism, and the placement process often consumes a lot of time, increasing labor costs and operational complexity. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a dual-station test tube labeling device, which solves the problems of existing test tube labeling equipment that only includes a single labeling module, resulting in long intervals between test tube dispensing, low efficiency, and long test tube placement time.

[0005] This utility model is implemented as follows: A dual-station test tube labeling device includes: several hopper modules and two conveying mechanisms. Each hopper module has a lifting mechanism on both sides. The output end of each lifting mechanism is connected to the input end of the corresponding conveying mechanism. Each conveying mechanism has a labeling module at its output end. Each labeling module has a corresponding test tube box below it. A left-right distributing mechanism is provided between the labeling module and the test tube box to transport the labeled test tubes into the corresponding test tube box.

[0006] Furthermore, the hopper module includes two parallel first side plates, which are connected by two second side plates. The second side plates are perpendicular to the first side plates. A partition plate is provided between the two second side plates to symmetrically divide the hopper module into two small hoppers. A bottom plate is provided between the partition plate and the second side plates.

[0007] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism includes a first lifting plate and a second lifting plate that are slidably disposed within the small hopper and alternately rise and fall.

[0008] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism also includes a first drive motor fixedly installed below the small hopper, a first drive wheel fixedly installed on the output shaft of the first drive motor, a first driven wheel rotatably installed on the upper part of the outer wall of the second side plate, a first transmission belt sleeved on the outer side of the first drive wheel and the first driven wheel, the first lifting plate fixedly connected to one side of the first transmission belt, and the second lifting plate fixedly connected to the other side of the first transmission belt.

[0009] Furthermore, a buffer support plate and a follow-up lifting plate are arranged sequentially from bottom to top above the second side plate. The buffer support plate is inclined downward and fixedly connected to the first side plate, and the follow-up lifting plate is rotatably connected to the first side plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the conveying mechanism includes a conveying frame with an elongated trough. A second drive motor is fixedly mounted on one end of the conveying frame, and a second drive wheel is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second drive motor. A second driven wheel is rotatably mounted on the other end of the conveying frame. A second transmission belt is sleeved on the outer side of the second drive wheel and the second driven wheel. A sliding pusher is fixedly connected to the second transmission belt, and the sliding pusher passes through the elongated trough and is slidably connected to it.

[0011] Furthermore, a first slide rail is fixedly provided below the conveyor frame, the length direction of the first slide rail is parallel to the length direction of the conveyor frame, and a first slider is fixedly connected to the sliding pusher, the first slider is sleeved on the outside of the first slide rail and slidably connected to it.

[0012] Furthermore, the left and right dispensing mechanism includes a fixed dispensing component and a sliding dispensing component. The fixed dispensing component includes a first fixed upright plate and two fixed side slide plates. The two fixed side slide plates are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the first fixed upright plate. The lower parts of the two fixed side slide plates are respectively fixedly connected to a downwardly inclined fixed bottom slide plate. The position of the fixed bottom slide plate corresponds to the position of the test tube box.

[0013] Furthermore, the sliding distribution assembly includes a second fixed plate, a sliding plate, and two sliding side slides. The two sliding side slides are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the sliding plate. The second fixed plate is arranged parallel to the outside of the first fixed plate.

Detailed Implementation

[0018] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0019] like Figures 1-10The present invention is a dual-station test tube labeling device, comprising several hopper modules 1 and two conveying mechanisms 3. Lifting mechanisms 2 are provided on both sides of the hopper modules 1. The output end of each lifting mechanism 2 is connected to the input end of the corresponding conveying mechanism 3. Each conveying mechanism 3 has a labeling module 4 at its output end. A test tube box 5 is provided below each labeling module 4. A left and right distribution mechanism 6 is provided between the labeling module 4 and the test tube box 5 to transport the labeled test tubes into the corresponding test tube box 5.

[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, in order to clearly display the structure of each component in the figure, only one hopper module 1 is shown in the figure, but this is not the limitation. In actual use, the number of hopper modules 1 can be set according to actual needs, such as two sets, three sets or other numbers. When multiple hopper modules 1 are set, the multiple hopper modules 1 are arranged along the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 3.

[0021] like Figures 2-5 As shown, the hopper module 1 includes two parallel first side plates 11, which are connected by two second side plates 12. The second side plates 12 are perpendicular to the first side plates 11, meaning one end of the second side plate 12 is fixedly connected to one of the first side plates 11, and the other end of the second side plate 12 is fixedly connected to the other first side plate 11. The two first side plates 11 and the two second side plates 12 form a rectangular frame. A partition plate 13 is provided between the two second side plates 12, symmetrically dividing the hopper module 1 into two small hoppers. A base plate 14 is provided between the partition plate 13 and the second side plates 12, and the base plate 14 is inclined. Multiple test tubes are placed and stored in the two small hoppers.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, only two lifting mechanisms 2 are displayed. Figure 3As shown, the lifting mechanism 2 includes a first lifting plate 21 and a second lifting plate 22 that are slidably disposed within the small hopper and alternately rise and fall. The first lifting plate 21 and the second lifting plate 22 are vertically arranged. The lifting mechanism 2 also includes a first drive motor 23 fixedly disposed below the small hopper. The first drive motor 23 is a forward and reverse reversible motor. A first driving wheel 24 is fixedly disposed on the output shaft of the first drive motor 23. A first driven wheel 25 is rotatably disposed on the upper part of the outer wall of the second side plate 12. A first transmission belt 26 is sleeved on the outer side of the first driving wheel 24 and the first driven wheel 25. The first lifting plate 21 is fixedly connected to one side of the first transmission belt 26 through a first connecting frame 211, and the second lifting plate 22 is fixedly connected to the other side of the first transmission belt 26 through a second connecting frame 221. One end of the first connecting frame 211 is fixedly connected to one side of the first transmission belt 26, and the other end is fixedly connected to the first lifting plate 21. One end of the second connecting frame 221 is fixedly connected to the other side of the first transmission belt 26, and the other end is fixedly connected to the second lifting plate 22. The second side plate 12 is also provided with two vertical guide rails, namely the first guide rail 15 and the second guide rail 16, which are located on both sides of the first transmission belt 26. The first connecting frame 211 is provided with a corresponding first guide block 2111, which is fitted onto the first guide rail 15 and slides back and forth along its length. The second connecting frame 221 is provided with a corresponding second guide block 2211, which is fitted onto the second guide rail 16 and slides back and forth along its length. The coordinated arrangement of the guide rails and guide blocks serves a guiding function, ensuring that the first lifting plate 21 and the second lifting plate 22 move back and forth in the vertical direction.

[0023] Above the second side plate 12, from bottom to top, are a buffer support plate 17 and a follower lifting plate 18. The buffer support plate 17 is inclined downwards and fixedly connected to the first side plate 11, while the follower lifting plate 18 is rotatably connected to the first side plate 11. Two rotating wheels 181 are provided on both sides of the follower lifting plate 18, and are rotatably connected to it. Two vertical top plates 222 are fixedly provided on both sides of the upper part of the second lifting plate 22. When the second lifting plate 22 rises, the vertical top plates 222 fixed to it rise accordingly until the top of the vertical top plates 222 abuts against the rotating wheels 181 on the follower lifting plate 18, pushing the follower lifting plate 18 to rotate upwards. When the second lifting plate 22 moves to its highest point, the follower lifting plate 18 rotates upwards to form a certain angle with the buffer support plate 17, creating a buffer area above the buffer support plate 17 and between the follower lifting plate 18 that can accommodate only one test tube. A baffle 19 is fixedly installed below the follow-up lifting plate 18, and the baffle 19 is connected to the follow-up lifting plate 18 by bolts. A through-beam photoelectric sensor is installed on the upper part of each of the two first side plates 11. The through-beam photoelectric sensor is positioned near the upper end of the buffer support plate 17 and is used to detect whether there are test tubes in the spare tube buffer area. When the through-beam photoelectric sensor detects a test tube, the first lifting plate 21 and the second lifting plate 22 stop lifting the test tube.

[0024] When the test tube needs to be lifted, the first drive motor 23 is started. The output shaft of the first drive motor 23 rotates, driving the first driving wheel 24 to rotate. The rotation of the first driving wheel 24, through its cooperation with the first transmission belt 26 and the first driven wheel 25, drives the first driven wheel 25 and the first transmission belt 26 to rotate. Since the first lifting plate 21 and the second lifting plate 22 are respectively fixed on both sides of the first transmission belt 26, when the first transmission belt 26 rotates, it drives the first lifting plate 21 and the second lifting plate 22 to move in opposite directions. That is, when the first lifting plate 21 moves upward, the second lifting plate 22 moves downward. The first transmission belt 26 reciprocates, driving the first lifting plate 21 and the second lifting plate 22 to move up and down alternately to lift the test tubes in the small hopper upwards. If double tubes are lifted simultaneously, as the second lifting plate 22 rises to its highest point, the follow-up lifting plate 18 rotates upwards under the push of the vertical top plate 222 and forms a buffer zone for only one test tube between itself and the buffer support plate 17. At this time, the test tubes on the inner side of the second lifting plate 22 slide along the inclined buffer support plate 17 to the buffer zone and are temporarily stored there. Afterwards, the second lifting plate 22 moves upwards... As the vertical top plate 222 moves downward, the follower lifting plate 18 also rotates downward. During this downward rotation, the baffle 19 at one end pushes against the outer test tube, causing it to slide into the small hopper. Simultaneously, the other end of the follower lifting plate 18 rotates upward, gradually increasing the gap between it and the buffer support plate 17 until the inner test tube in the spare tube buffer area passes through the gap and slides downward to the input end of the conveying mechanism 3. This achieves the sequential lifting of individual test tube specimens, solving the problem of lifting double tubes simultaneously. When the through-beam photoelectric sensor detects a test tube in the spare tube buffer area, the first drive motor 23 stops rotating, and the first lifting plate 21 and the second lifting plate 22 stop moving, temporarily stopping the test tube in the spare tube buffer area. Conversely, when the through-beam photoelectric sensor detects no test tube in the spare tube buffer area, the first drive motor 23 starts, and the first lifting plate 21 and the second lifting plate 22 move alternately to lift the test tube.

[0025] The test tubes inside the hopper module 1 are lifted upwards by the lifting mechanism 2 to the upper end and then slide down through the buffer support plate 17 to the input end of the conveying mechanism 3. Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the conveying mechanism 3 includes a conveying frame 31, which is horizontally positioned. The input end of the conveying frame 31 is connected to the output end of the lifting mechanism 2. A long slide groove 311 is provided on the conveying frame 31. The width of the slide groove 311 is greater than the outer diameter of the test tube but smaller than the outer diameter of the test tube cap. The test tube specimen will not fall down when it slides through the slide groove 311 along its length. Drop holes 312 are provided at both ends of the slide groove 311. The diameter of the drop holes 312 is greater than the diameter of the test tube cap. When the test tube is pushed to the drop hole 312, it falls down. A second drive motor 32 is fixedly mounted on one end of the conveying frame 31. A second driving wheel 33 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second drive motor 32. A second driven wheel 34 is rotatably mounted on the other end of the conveying frame 31. In this embodiment, two guide wheels 36 are rotatably mounted on the conveyor frame 31. One guide wheel 36 is positioned near the second driving wheel 33, and the other guide wheel 36 is positioned near the second driven wheel 34. A second transmission belt 35 is fitted around the outer sides of the second driving wheel 33, the second driven wheel 34, and the guide wheels 36. A sliding pusher 37 is fixedly connected to the second transmission belt 35. The sliding pusher 37 passes through and is slidably connected to the elongated slide groove 311. A first slide rail 38 is fixedly mounted below the conveyor frame 31. The length direction of the first slide rail 38 is parallel to the length direction of the conveyor frame 31. A first slider 39 is fixedly connected to the sliding pusher 37. The first slider 39 is fitted around and slidably connected to the first slide rail 38. The first slide rail 38 serves as a guide. The first slide rail 38 and the first slider 39 are configured to ensure that the sliding pusher 37 reciprocates along the length direction of the elongated slide groove 311. In this embodiment, sensors are provided at both ends of the elongated slide 311. The sensor at its input end is used to detect the presence or absence of a test tube. When a test tube is detected, the second drive motor 32 is activated to drive the sliding pusher 37 to move and push the test tube towards its output end. When the sensor at the output end detects a test tube, it stops the second drive motor 32, acting as a limit to prevent the sliding pusher 37 from moving forward further.

[0026] The second drive motor 32 is started, and the output shaft of the second drive motor 32 rotates, which drives the second drive wheel 33 to rotate. The rotation of the second drive wheel 33 drives the second driven wheel 34 and the two guide wheels 36 to rotate through the second transmission belt 35. During the rotation of the second transmission belt 35, the sliding pusher 37, which is fixedly connected to it, slides along the length of the long slide groove 311. During the movement of the sliding pusher 37, it pushes the test tube in the long slide groove 311 to move until it enters the drop hole 312 at the output end of the conveyor frame 31. Then the test tube falls to the labeling module 4 below for automatic labeling.

[0027] The labeling module 4 is used to label the outer wall of the test tube. The labeling module 4 is existing technology and can be any labeling module 4 that our company has previously applied for and authorized, such as application number: CN201710904945.X, patent name is a test tube labeling device. Its specific structure and working principle will not be described in detail here.

[0028] After being labeled by the labeling module 4, the test tubes fall into the left and right separating mechanism 6, such as... Figures 8-10 As shown, the left and right dispensing mechanism 6 is used to transport test tubes to designated test tube boxes 5. In this embodiment, there are two test tube boxes 5, and test tubes can be specified to be transported to one of them during use. The left and right dispensing mechanism 6 includes a fixed dispensing component 61 and a sliding dispensing component 62. The fixed dispensing component 61 includes a first fixed upright plate 611 and two fixed side slide plates 612. The two fixed side slide plates 612 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the first fixed upright plate 611. The lower parts of the two fixed side slide plates 612 are respectively fixedly connected to a downwardly inclined fixed bottom slide plate 613. The position of the fixed bottom slide plate 613 corresponds to the position of the test tube box 5. The fixed side slide plates 612 and the fixed bottom slide plates 613 form a fixed slide for the test tubes. Since the labeling module 4 and the test tube box 5 are correspondingly arranged, when the labeled test tubes fall from the labeling module 4 to the left and right dispensing mechanism 6, the test tubes on one side fall directly into the corresponding test tube box 5 through the fixed slide.

[0029] The sliding dispensing assembly 62 includes a second fixed upright plate 621, a sliding upright plate 622, and two sliding side slide plates 623. The two sliding side slide plates 623 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the sliding upright plate 622 and fixedly connected to it, with the sliding side slide plates 623 located above the fixed side slide plate 612. The two sliding side slide plates 623 and the sliding upright plate 622 form a moving slide for the test tube, which reciprocates above the fixed bottom slide plate 613. Specifically, the bottom of the two sliding side slide plates 623 is slightly higher than the top of the fixed bottom slide plate 613 to facilitate the sliding of the moving slide. The second fixed upright plate 621 is arranged parallel to the outside of the first fixed upright plate 611. Two vertical support plates 624 are fixedly connected between the first fixed upright plate 611 and the second fixed upright plate 621. The two vertical support plates 624 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the second fixed upright plate 621 and are located at the bottom of the fixed side slide plate 612. A lead screw motor 625 is fixedly mounted on the second fixed plate 621. A support frame 626 is threadedly connected to the lead screw of the lead screw motor 625. The support frame 626 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the sliding plate 622. A second slider 627 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the sliding plate 622. A second slide rail 628 is fixedly mounted on the outer side of the first fixed plate 611. The second slider 627 is slidably sleeved on the outer side of the second slide rail 628.

[0030] When the lead screw motor 625 is started, the rotation of the lead screw in the motor 625 drives the support frame 626, which is threadedly connected to it, to move. Since the support frame 626 is fixedly connected to the sliding upright plate 622, and the second slider 627 on the sliding upright plate 622 is slidably sleeved on the second slide rail 628, the support frame 626 moves along the length of the lead screw as the lead screw rotates, thereby driving the movable slide rail to one end of the first fixed upright plate 611. When the equipment is in normal working condition, the movable slide rail can be located at either end of the first fixed upright plate 611.

[0031] Below the sliding distribution assembly 62 is a distribution conveyor assembly 63, which includes a third drive motor 631. The third drive motor 631 is fixedly mounted on the lower part of the second fixed upright plate 621. A third drive wheel 632 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the third drive motor 631. Several third driven wheels 633 are rotatably mounted on the first fixed upright plate 611. A third conveyor belt 634 is fitted onto the third drive wheel 632 and the third driven wheels 633. A baffle (not shown in the figure) is also fixedly mounted on the vertical support plate 624 for limiting and blocking the test tubes.

[0032] When the labeled test tubes fall to the sliding distribution assembly 62, they slide along the sliding side slide plate 623 to the top of the third conveyor belt 634. The third drive motor 631 is then activated. The output shaft of the third drive motor 631 rotates, driving the third drive wheel 632 to rotate. The rotation of the third drive wheel 632 drives the third driven wheel 633 and the third conveyor belt 634 to rotate, thereby moving the test tubes on the third conveyor belt 634 toward the designated test tube box 5 until they hit the baffle during transport and fall into the designated test tube box 5.

[0033] When using the dual-station test tube labeling device of this utility model, such as Figure 1As shown, the labeled test tubes need to be collected through one of the test tube boxes 5. The first drive motor 23 is started, which in turn drives the first transmission belt 26 to rotate. During the rotation of the first transmission belt 26, the first lifting plate 21 and the second lifting plate 22 in the lifting mechanism 2 move up and down alternately, so that the test tubes in the two small hoppers of the hopper module 1 are lifted one by one to the top of the second side plate 12 and slide freely down along the inclined buffer support plate 17 to the input end of the conveying mechanism 3, i.e., the test tubes fall into the long chute 311. At this time, the sliding pusher 37 is located in the tube drop hole 312 at the input end of the conveying frame 31. The second drive motor 32 is started, which in turn drives the second transmission belt 35 to rotate. During the rotation of the second transmission belt 35, the sliding pusher 37 moves along the long chute 311. The test tube slides along the length direction. During the movement of the sliding pusher 37, it pushes the test tube in the long strip trough 311 until it reaches the drop hole 312 at the output end of the conveyor 31. Then, the test tube falls to the labeling module 4 below for automatic labeling. After the test tubes on both sides are labeled, the test tube on one side falls from the labeling module 4 and directly passes through the fixed slide formed by the fixed side slide plate 612 and the fixed bottom slide plate 613 before falling into the test tube box 5 on the corresponding side. The test tube on the other side falls from the labeling module 4 and passes through the moving slide formed by the sliding side slide plate 623 and the sliding upright plate 622 before falling onto the third conveyor belt 634. The third drive motor 631 is started, which drives the third conveyor belt 634 to rotate, thereby moving the test tube on the third conveyor belt 634 to the baffle and then falling into the designated test tube box 5.

[0034] While this utility model discloses preferred embodiments to achieve the above objectives, it is not intended to limit the structural features of this utility model. Anyone skilled in the art should know that any easily conceivable variations or modifications are possible under the technical spirit of this utility model and are covered by the patent claims of this utility model.
