[0002] In medical institutions, laboratories, public places and other environments, hand disinfection is a key step in preventing cross-infection. The working principle of the induction automatic liquid dispenser is to detect the approach signal of the hand by the built-in infrared sensor, triggering the electric device to squeeze out the hand sanitizer. It can automatically dispense hand sanitizer without contact. Due to its automatic, quantitative and non-contact characteristics, it is widely used in places with high hygiene protection requirements such as medical institutions and laboratories, public places such as schools, hotels, office buildings and homes. However, existing inductive medical automatic liquid dispensers cannot utilize a sensing module to amplify the captured weak electrical signals through operational amplifiers, filter out interference through RC filters, or compare the signals with thresholds using voltage comparators. They cannot accurately determine the detected item and trigger the liquid dispensing action. They cannot achieve synchronization between devices using only preset data formats and transmission rates. They cannot utilize a sterilization module to promptly perform 360° ultraviolet sterilization on the liquid outlet and the bottom of the dispensing chamber, areas prone to bacterial growth, after dispensing. They cannot effectively improve the hydrophobic properties of the liquid outlet, the penetration of ultraviolet light, or the resistance to ultraviolet aging. They cannot utilize a drive module to combine the precise control and flexible response of stepper motors with the efficient transmission and reliable positioning of lead screws. They cannot meet the high-precision requirements of quantitative liquid dispensing while also ensuring the device's safety, stability, and low power consumption. Furthermore, they cannot ensure consistent displacement accuracy between forward dispensing and backward clearing or resetting.

[0027] The aforementioned inductive medical automatic liquid dispenser was installed at the entrance of a hospital ward. After unpacking, each component and device was inspected for any abnormalities and thoroughly disinfected. Following the installation instructions, each component and device was assembled. At a suitable location outside the ward door, expansion screws were used to fix the back plate 63 to the wall through the threaded holes at the four corners. The rear shell 27 of the main body was then fastened to the back plate 63 using clips. The inverted liquid supply box 13 was inserted into the clip 61 from top to bottom, ensuring that all parts were properly installed. The push rod 40 was passed through the through hole IV 62 and fixed to the nut of the lead screw 40, and screwed into the preset marked position on the lead screw shaft. The front shell 26 of the main body was fastened to the rear shell 27 of the main body using fasteners. The inductive medical automatic liquid dispenser was then installed. Medical staff unscrew the sealing cap 60 and inject hand sanitizer into the supply box 13 through the filling port 59. The hand sanitizer flows downward through the through hole II 25 of the silicone plug 21 into the pump body 38 under its own weight. At this time, the weight of the hand sanitizer is less than the tension of the piston spring 45. The hand sanitizer fills the pump body 38 and is sealed at the upper end of the liquid dispensing chamber 42. When the liquid level is seen to be full in the transparent observation area 58, the filling is stopped. The sealing cap 60 is screwed on to seal the filling port 59. During use, the liquid level of the hand sanitizer in the transparent observation area 58 is observed. When the liquid level is insufficient, the above steps are used to add hand sanitizer to the supply box 13. The main control switch 67 is turned on to check that the lithium battery 65 is fully charged. After the device is debugged and can dispense liquid normally, the inductive medical automatic liquid dispenser enters the working state. After examining the patient in the ward, medical staff approach the device outside the ward door and place their hands below the infusion outlet 46. The device's sensing area is set at 5-15cm. When the hands are within the sensing area 55, the infrared proximity sensor 4 receives the reflected infrared light and converts it into a weak electrical signal. This weak original signal is amplified by the operational amplifier, RC filter circuit, and voltage comparator of the signal processing unit 5, filtering out environmental electromagnetic interference. The amplified signal is compared with a preset threshold, and a stable and valid detection signal is output. This signal is then transmitted to the microcontroller 6 via the asynchronous transceiver 7, indicating that an object has been detected. The microcontroller 6 instructs the blue LED indicator 8 to flash, indicating to the medical staff that the current status is "infusion collection in progress." Simultaneously, the asynchronous transceiver 7 enables data transmission between devices via a preset data format. To achieve synchronization, the microcontroller 6, according to the control program pre-stored in the mode storage chip 10, instructs the stepper motor 31 to rotate forward a preset number of times. The lead screw 32 converts the rotational motion of the stepper motor 31 into linear motion. The nut and push rod 40 of the lead screw 32 move forward, pushing the grooved pad 51 and the pump valve silicone plug 39 forward. The pressure of the liquid in the hydraulic pump valve 34 is greater than the atmospheric pressure and the weight of the liquid itself, causing the piston I 22 to move upward. The piston cap of the piston I 22 closes the through hole II 25. At the same time, the hydraulic power is greater than the tension of the piston spring 45, pushing the piston II 44 downward. The piston cap of the piston II 44 releases the sealing ring 43, and the hand sanitizer drips from the outlet 46 into the hands of medical staff. According to the control program pre-stored in the mode storage chip 10, after the transmission preset displacement, the hand sanitizer drips out a fixed amount of 5ml each time, and the liquid collection process ends. Waste liquid container 29 is used to collect hand sanitizer that may accidentally drip during liquid collection. When a large amount of hand sanitizer is collected in the waste liquid container 29, medical staff release the clip between the waste liquid container 29 and the front end of the tray 28, remove the waste liquid container 29, clean it, and then clip it back into the tray 28. After the stepper motor 31 rotates forward a preset number of revolutions, the microcontroller 6 instructs the stepper motor 31 to rotate in reverse the same number of revolutions. The nut of the transmission screw 32 and the push rod 40 move backward to return to their initial positions. Under the action of the grooved pad 51 and the silicone plug 39 of the pump valve, the pressure of the liquid in the hydraulic pump valve 34 is less than the atmospheric pressure and the weight of the liquid itself. Force causes piston I 22 to move downward, opening through hole II 25 and allowing hand sanitizer to flow down and replenish. At the same time, outside air enters the supply box 13 through air inlet 48, air inlet pipe 49 and hydrophobic membrane filter 50 to balance the pressure inside the box. Meanwhile, the hydraulic force is greater than the tension of piston spring 45, causing piston II 44 to move downward. The piston cap of piston II 44 closes the sealing ring 43, stopping the dripping of hand sanitizer. The hydrophobic membrane filter 50 has selective filtration characteristics, which can prevent liquid from passing through while maintaining unobstructed gas flow. This prevents hand sanitizer from accidentally entering the air inlet pipe 49 during use and causing blockage, and maintains a constant pressure inside the bottle. After the drive module 30 and the transmission liquid dispensing component 33 have completed their work, the microprocessor 6 instructs the ultraviolet lamp 11 to continuously perform 360° ultraviolet sterilization on the hand sanitizer outlet and the bottom of the liquid dispensing chamber 42, which are prone to bacterial growth, for 3 seconds, killing bacteria and viruses on the surface. The protective shell 12 is made of fluorosilane-modified nanostructured transparent glass material, which effectively improves the hydrophobicity of the hand sanitizer outlet, the penetration performance of ultraviolet light, and the aging resistance of ultraviolet light. At this point, the entire liquid dispensing and sterilization process of the device is completed. The lithium battery 65 continuously powers the infrared proximity sensor 4, signal processing unit 5, microcontroller 6, asynchronous transceiver 7, blue LED indicator 8, ultraviolet lamp 11, and stepper motor 31. When the lithium battery 65 is low on power, a dedicated charger is used to charge the lithium battery 65 through the charging port 66. During the transmission and liquid dispensing strokes, the liquid supply port 47 is always outside the ventilation space, and the air inlet 48 is always inside the ventilation space, ensuring smooth liquid dispensing and air intake. The limiting groove 53 and the limiting protrusion 54 interact to limit the push rod 40 to only make linear forward and backward movements.
