[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical and nursing equipment technology, specifically a glass medicine bottle collection and sorting device for day ward nursing. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous innovation of modern medical models and people's increasing demands for medical efficiency and medical experience, day wards have emerged as an efficient and convenient medical service model. They mainly accept patients whose conditions are relatively stable and do not require long-term hospitalization, but who need to receive professional medical care and treatment during the day, such as patients undergoing minor surgery, chemotherapy, dialysis, etc. This model not only greatly shortens the patient's hospitalization time and reduces medical costs, but also allows patients to return to their families and society in a timely manner after treatment, reducing the psychological pressure caused by long-term hospitalization. In the daily operation of day wards, the efficiency and standardization of nursing work are crucial. During the nursing process, a large number of ampoules with necks that need to be broken manually are used. After use, these glass medicine bottles will produce fragments with sharp edges. Some of these fragments contain residual medicine, while others are empty bottle fragments. If these ampoule fragments are not collected and sorted in a timely and standardized manner, they will not only occupy ward space and affect the cleanliness of the ward environment, but may also pose a risk of cross-infection due to residual medicine. At the same time, the sharp edges of broken glass can easily cause puncture accidents to medical staff, and are also not conducive to the classification and disposal of medical waste and the recycling of resources.

[0003] Therefore, this utility model provides a glass medicine bottle collection and sorting device for day ward nursing to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a glass medicine bottle collection and sorting device for day ward care, which solves the aforementioned problems.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a glass medicine bottle collection and sorting device for day ward care, comprising: The collection bucket includes a bucket body. A water bath is formed along a circular path on the upper side of the bucket shell. Multiple plant-based wax storage chambers are located adjacent to the water bath inside the bucket shell. A heat-conducting rod is positioned in contact with a heat-conducting liquid at the lower part of the water bath, with the rod extending downwards through all the plant-based wax storage chambers. Multiple annularly spaced valve grooves are recessed into the inner wall of the bucket body from the upper plant-based wax storage chambers to the lower part of the inner wall. The interior of the bucket body, in conjunction with the valve grooves, and a sealing valve strip on the circumference of the material bowl, which matches the shape of the valve grooves, connect to the material bowl. A return spring is elastically connected between the lower part of the bucket body and the bottom of the material bowl.

[0006] Preferably, the upper end of the barrel is open, and a detachable cover plate is bolted to the port. A wire feeding port for threading wire is provided at the center of the cover plate, and the wire is fed into the barrel through the wire feeding port.

[0007] Preferably, the interior of the water bath is filled with a heat-conducting liquid through an interface, and an electric heating component electrically connected to the tank control box is installed between the heat-conducting liquid.

[0008] Preferably, a feeding port is integrally connected to the upper side of the barrel body, and the feeding port is inclined upward.

[0015] 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.

[0016] Please see Figures 1-4 A glass medicine bottle collection and sorting device for day ward care, comprising: The collection bucket 1 is made of medical and sanitary materials and has multiple casters with stopping capabilities installed on the bottom side, and a matching control box on the surface. The collection bin 1 includes a bin body 11, with an open upper end and a removable cover plate bolted to the port. A wire insertion port 111 is located at the center of the cover plate, through which a wire feeder 152 is inserted into the bin body 11. A water bath 12 is formed along a circular path on the upper side of the bin body 11. The water bath 12 is filled with a heat-conducting liquid through an interface, and an electric heating element electrically connected to the control box of the bin body 11 is disposed between the heat-conducting liquid components. The upper side of the bin body 11... The container is integrally connected and has a feeding port 112, which is inclined upwards. The portion of the feeding port 112 that passes through the water bath 12 has an isolation pipe. Inside the shell of the container 11, multiple plant-based wax storage chambers 14 are arranged adjacent to the lower side of the water bath 12. These plant-based wax storage chambers 14 are arranged in a radial array along the container 11, and the interior of each plant-based wax storage chamber 14 is heat-insulated. A heat-conducting rod 13 is arranged in contact with the heat-conducting liquid at the lower part of the interior of the water bath 12. The rod extends downwards from the inside of the water bath 12, passing through all the plant-based wax storage chambers 14 sequentially. It transfers heat from the heat-conducting liquid in the water bath 12 to the plant-based wax storage chambers 14, providing liquid insulation for the plant-based waxes stored in the chambers. The inner wall of the barrel 11, from the upper side of the plant-based wax storage chambers 14 to the lower side of the inner wall of the barrel 11, is recessed with multiple annularly spaced valve grooves 113. The interior of the barrel 11 is fitted with valve grooves 113, and the sealing valves on the circumference of the material bowl 15 are also fitted with valve grooves 113. The strip 153 is connected to the bowl 15, thereby constraining the lifting and lowering of the bowl 15. A return spring 151 is elastically connected between the lower part of the barrel 11 and the bottom of the bowl 15. Initially, the sealing valve strip 153 on the periphery of the bowl 15 covers all the plant-based wax storage chambers 14 inside the valve groove 113, thereby blocking the liquid holes that penetrate from the plant-based wax storage chambers 14 into the barrel 11. The inner wall of the bowl 15 is treated with a non-stick coating. Each plant-based wax storage chamber 14 has an interface for replenishing plant-based wax.

[0017] Medical staff can drop broken glass medicine bottles into the inclined feeding port 112, where they fall into the material bowl 15 inside the barrel 11. As the amount of material added increases, the material bowl 15 is compressed by gravity, causing the return spring 151 to move downward. Simultaneously, the sealing valve strip 153 on its periphery moves downward, no longer covering the liquid hole of the plant-based wax storage chamber 14. The insulated liquid plant-based wax then flows into the barrel 11. At the same time, the wire retrieval 152 can be inserted through the wire feeding port 111, facilitating the subsequent removal of the solidified mixture. After the medicine bottle is removed, the material bowl 15 returns to its original position under the action of the return spring 151, and the sealing valve strip 153 covers the liquid hole again, stopping the wax supply. The universal wheels on the lower side of the collection barrel 1 facilitate movement and fixation. The control box controls the electric heating components to ensure the operation of the device.

[0018] In summary, by setting up a material bowl 15 that automatically moves downwards according to the amount of glass medicine bottle added, and coordinating the liquid hole linkage structure between the sealing valve strip 153 and the plant-based wax storage chamber 14, when the medicine bottle accumulates to a certain amount, the wax automatically flows in to encapsulate the glass fragments. This not only achieves automatic sorting of the fragments, but also solidifies and fixes the fragments through wax, preventing fragments from scattering or scratching medical staff during subsequent processing, thus improving operational safety. At the same time, after the plant-based wax seals and removes the broken medicine bottle, it is easier to transfer and harmlessly dispose of the broken glass bottle, which can greatly improve the efficiency of harmless disposal.

[0019] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.

[0020] Working principle: During operation, medical staff can insert broken glass medicine bottles into the upward-sloping feeding port 112. The inserted glass bottles will fall into the material bowl 15 inside the barrel 11. As more medicine bottles are added, the gravity on the material bowl 15 gradually increases, compressing the return spring 151 at the bottom and causing it to move downward. When the material bowl 15 moves, the sealing valve strip 153 on its circumference will move downward synchronously within the valve groove 113 on the inner wall of the barrel 11. When the sealing valve strip 153 no longer covers the liquid hole through which the plant-based wax storage chamber 14 connects to the inside of the barrel 11, the plant-based waxes in the plant-based wax storage chamber 14, which are kept in liquid condition, will flow into the inside of the barrel 11. The plant-based waxes (beeswax, soy wax, palm wax, etc.) can remain liquid because the electric heating element in the water bath 12 heats the heat-conducting liquid, and the heat is transferred through the heat-conducting rod 13. The material is guided to the plant-based wax storage chamber 14, where the plant-based wax inside is kept warm. At the same time, a wire retrieval 152 can be inserted into the barrel 11 through the wire inlet 111, facilitating the subsequent removal of the mixture of plant-based wax and glass bottles that has solidified into blocks after collection and sorting. When the glass medicine bottle in the material bowl 15 is removed, the gravity decreases, and the return spring 151 will drive the material bowl 15 to return to its original position. The sealing valve strip 153 will then cover the liquid hole again, stopping the inflow of plant-based wax. Throughout the process, the casters on the lower side of the collection barrel 1 facilitate the movement and fixation of the device. The control box can control the heating components, etc. (The core of the control box's control over the heating components is through a closed-loop logic of detection, judgment, execution, and protection, combined with hardware circuits and control strategies, to realize the start-up and shutdown, power adjustment, temperature stabilization, and safety protection of the heating components), ensuring the normal operation of the device.
