[0022] Reference Figure 1-6 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution for a folding structure for drug instruction manuals: A folding structure for a drug instruction manual includes a box body 1. The top surface of the box body 1 has a placement groove 101 for placing instruction manual paper 6. Both the placement groove 101 and the instruction manual paper 6 are rectangular and have the same length and width. The top surface of the box body 1 has a second pressing groove 103 formed downward at the middle of its long side. The top surface of the box body 1 is located on one side of the second pressing groove 103 and has a first pressing groove 102 formed downward at the middle of its short side. The depths of the second pressing groove 103 and the first pressing groove 102 are equal.
[0023] It should be noted that the top surface of the box body 1, above the second pressing groove 103, is provided with a vertically sliding T-shaped plate 3. The box body 1, with the second pressing groove 103 as the axis of symmetry and located on the symmetrical side of the first pressing groove 102, is provided with a horizontally sliding T-shaped plate 2. The vertically sliding T-shaped plate 3 slides into the second pressing groove 103 to push the instruction manual sheet 6 into the second pressing groove 103 and fold it once. The horizontally sliding T-shaped plate 2 slides into the first pressing groove 102 to fold the instruction manual sheet 6 once again and push the folded instruction manual sheet 6 out of the first pressing groove 102.
[0024] The working principle of this structure is explained through its operation process: When folding the instruction manual sheet 6 using this structure, the operator first places the instruction manual sheet 6 flat in the placement groove 101 on the top surface of the box body 1, ensuring that the sheet is completely flush with the groove without any misalignment. Then, the operator operates the vertical push T-shaped plate 3 to slide it downwards along the second pressing groove 103, pushing the instruction manual sheet 6 into the second pressing groove 103, completing the first fold. Next, the operator pushes the horizontal push T-shaped plate 2 to slide it along the first pressing groove 102, folding the instruction manual sheet 6 again and pushing it out of the first pressing groove 102, thus completing the entire folding process. This operation process is simple and efficient, significantly improving the folding efficiency of drug instruction manuals while ensuring the neatness and consistency of the folds.
[0025] By setting up and cooperating with the box body 1, the vertical push T-shaped plate 3, and the horizontal push T-shaped plate 2, the instruction manual sheet 6 is pushed by the vertical push T-shaped plate 3 and the horizontal push T-shaped plate 2, passing through the second pressing groove 103 and the first pressing groove 102 in sequence and then separating from the first pressing groove 102. This achieves efficient folding of the instruction manual sheet 6. By reducing the error of human intervention, the folding efficiency is improved while ensuring the neatness and consistency of the folding, thus improving the folding quality and making the folding of the instruction manual sheet 6 more beautiful.
[0026] Reference Figure 1-6As shown, in an optional embodiment: a horizontal guide groove 104 is provided inside the box body 1 with the second pressing groove 103 as the axis of symmetry and located on the symmetrical side of the first pressing groove 102. The horizontal push T-shaped plate 2 is located in the horizontal guide groove 104, and the rear end of the horizontal push T-shaped plate 2 extends out of the box body 1. It should be noted that the horizontal guide groove 104 is T-shaped and corresponds to the horizontal push T-shaped plate 2. Through the matching setting of the horizontal guide groove 104 and the horizontal push T-shaped plate 2, not only is it prevented that the horizontal push T-shaped plate 2 will detach from the box body 1, but it also provides precise guidance for the back-and-forth sliding of the horizontal push T-shaped plate 2.
[0027] Reference Figure 1-6 As shown, in an optional embodiment: an inverted U-shaped frame 5 is provided on the top surface of the box body 1 above the second pressure groove 103. A top through-hole 501 is provided at the center of the top surface of the inverted U-shaped frame 5, and the vertical push T-shaped plate 3 is slidably connected to the inverted U-shaped frame 5 at the top through-hole 501. It should be noted that the inverted U-shaped frame 5 and the top through-hole 501 ensure that the vertical push T-shaped plate 3 remains stable during sliding, avoiding displacement or jamming caused by external forces. The inverted U-shaped frame 5 not only enhances the stability of the overall structure but also provides precise guidance for the up-and-down movement of the vertical push T-shaped plate 3.
[0028] Reference Figure 1-6 As shown, in an optional embodiment: a horizontal end cap 201 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the horizontal push T-shaped plate 2. (Refer to...) Figure 1-6 As shown, in an optional embodiment, a vertical end cap 301 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the vertical push T-plate 3. It should be noted that the horizontal end cap 201 and the vertical end cap 301 not only facilitate the operator to push the horizontal push T-plate 2 and the vertical push T-plate 3, but also serve as a limit to prevent them from coming out of the box 1, thereby ensuring the stability of this structure during use.
[0029] Reference Figure 1-6 As shown, in an optional embodiment: Side sliding grooves 502 are provided on both the left and right inner sides of the inverted U-shaped frame 5. Each side sliding groove 502 includes an inclined sliding groove 503 located at its lower end. Sliding grooves 302 are provided on both sides of the front end of the vertically pushing T-shaped plate 3, extending inwards. A locking block 4 is connected to the interior of the sliding groove 302 via an elastic element. The locking block 4 extends out of the sliding groove 302 and abuts against the inner wall of the side sliding groove 502. When the vertically pushing T-shaped plate 3 slides downwards, the locking block 4, upon passing the inner wall of the inclined sliding groove 503, is pressed into the sliding groove 302 and then abuts against the inner wall of the second pressing groove 103, sliding downwards. (Refer to...) Figure 1-6 As shown, in an optional embodiment: the side of the card block 4 that contacts the inner wall of the side slide groove 502, the inclined slide groove 503, and the second pressing groove 103 is set as an arc surface. (Refer to...) Figure 1-6As shown, in an optional embodiment: the elastic element includes a guide shaft 303 and a spring 304. The side of the locking block 4 facing the sliding groove 302 has an inner guide groove 401. The guide shaft 303 is disposed on the inner bottom surface of the sliding groove 302 and extends into the inner guide groove 401. The spring 304 is sleeved on the guide shaft 303 located between the locking block 4 and the inner bottom surface of the sliding groove 302. It should be noted that the automatic unlocking of the vertically pushed T-shaped plate 3 during its downward movement can be achieved through the cooperation of the locking block 4 and the inclined sliding groove 503. When the user pushes the vertically pushed T-shaped plate 3 downward, the locking block 4 slides along the inclined surface of the inclined sliding groove 503 and gradually retracts into the sliding groove 302, thereby releasing the locking state with the side sliding groove 502. The locking of the vertical push T-shaped plate 3 and the side sliding groove 502, preventing the vertical push T-shaped plate 3 from automatically sliding into the second pressing groove 103, is to leave a gap between the front end of the vertical push T-shaped plate 3 and the top surface of the box body 1, making it easier for the user to place the instruction manual sheet 6 into the placement groove 101. Furthermore, the curved surface of the locking block 4 further reduces the friction during sliding, making the sliding process smoother and effectively extending the service life of the device.
[0030] Reference Figure 1-6 As shown, in an optional embodiment: the front side of the transverse push T-shaped plate 2 is set as an arc surface. (Refer to...) Figure 1-6 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the front side of the vertical push T-shaped plate 3 is set as a curved surface. It should be noted that this setting effectively reduces the friction between the horizontal push T-shaped plate 2 and the vertical push T-shaped plate 3 and the instruction manual sheet 6 during sliding, ensuring a smoother folding process. At the same time, the curved surface also prevents scratches or damage to the instruction manual sheet 6, improving the folding quality.
[0031] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
