As shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, an embodiment of the test tube transporting apparatus 10 includes a carrier plate 100, a pushing mechanism 200, and a blocking mechanism 300.

Referring to fig. 1, 2 and 4, the carrier plate 100 is provided with a sliding groove 110, the end of the sliding groove 110 is provided with a dropping hole 111, and the test tube 20 can pass through the sliding groove 110 and be hung on the carrier plate 100.

Specifically, the supporting plate 100 is a flat plate, the sliding groove 110 is disposed on the supporting plate 100 and penetrates through the upper and lower surfaces of the supporting plate 100, and the end of the sliding groove 110 is provided with a falling hole 111. The width of spout 110 is greater than the diameter of the shaft of test tube 20, and is less than the diameter of the cap of test tube 20, and the aperture of hole 111 that drops is greater than the diameter of the cap of test tube 20. Thus, the tube body of the test tube 20 can pass through the sliding groove 110, and the test tube 20 can be hung on the loading plate 100 by means of its cap, and when the test tube 20 moves to the dropping hole 111, the test tube 20 can drop from the dropping hole 111.

As shown in fig. 2, the pushing mechanism 200 is disposed on the loading plate 100 and can push the test tube 20 to move along the length direction of the sliding slot 110. The pushing mechanism 200 is used to provide power to the test tube 20, so that the test tube 20 moves along the length direction of the sliding groove 110, and the test tube 20 moves to the drop hole 111 and drops from the drop hole 111 to the next station.

As shown in fig. 2 and 3, in particular, the pushing mechanism 200 includes a driving assembly and a pushing assembly 220 in driving connection with the driving assembly, and the driving assembly is used for driving the pushing assembly 220 to move, so that the pushing assembly 220 pushes the test tube 20 to move along the length direction of the chute 110.

Further, the pushing member 222 is a pushing plate, the pushing member 222 includes a first pushing portion 2221 and a second pushing portion 2222 connected to the first pushing portion 2221, the test tube 20 is confined between the first pushing portion 2221 and the second pushing portion 2222, and the first pushing portion 2221 and the second pushing portion 2222 are used for spacing the tube body of the test tube 20 from two opposite side walls of the slide slot 110. Thus, when the test tube 20 is pushed by the pushing member 222 to move, the tube body of the test tube 20 does not contact with the side wall of the sliding groove 110, and damage caused by excessive friction force applied to the test tube 20 is avoided.

Specifically, the first pushing portion 2221 and the second pushing portion 2222 cooperate to form a V-shaped groove, a notch of the V-shaped groove is disposed toward the end of the sliding groove, and the test tube 20 passes through the V-shaped groove.

Referring to fig. 3 and 4, the blocking mechanism 300 is disposed on the loading plate 100, the blocking mechanism 300 includes a blocking member 310 movably disposed on the moving path of the test tube 20, and the blocking member 310 is disposed on a side of the falling hole 111 near the head end of the sliding groove 110; wherein the test tube 20 can be stopped by the stopper 310 when moving toward the drop hole 111 by inertia, and the test tube 20 can be pushed up the stopper 310 and pushed to the drop hole 111 when moving toward the drop hole 111 by pushing of the pushing mechanism 200.

The movement path of the test tube 20 mentioned in the present application refers to a movement path of the test tube 20 when moving along the chute 110.

In the process of pushing the test tube 20 toward the drop hole 111 by the pushing mechanism 200, the pushing mechanism 200 needs to stop before pushing the test tube 20 to the stopper 310 to wait for the next station to finish labeling the previous test tube. When the pushing mechanism 200 stops operating, the test tube 20 will continue to move toward the drop hole 111 under the action of inertia, and when the test tube 20 moves to contact with the blocking member 310, the test tube 20 can be blocked by the blocking member 310 to stop sliding; after the previous test tube is labeled at the next station, the pushing mechanism 200 may continue to push the test tube 20 to move toward the drop hole 111, and at this time, the test tube 20 may push away the stopper 310 under the action of the pushing mechanism 200 and be pushed to the drop hole 111 to enter the next station.

Further, a pusher position sensor 700 is further disposed on the carrier plate 100, and the pusher position sensor 700 is configured to detect whether the pusher 222 reaches a predetermined position, and when the pusher 222 reaches the predetermined position, it can be said that the pusher 222 has pushed the test tube 20 to the drop hole 111.

The pusher position sensor 700 is a photoelectric switch.

As shown in fig. 4, further, the blocking mechanism 300 further includes a bracket 320 and an elastic resetting member 330, the bracket 320 is fixedly connected with the carrier plate 100, one end of the elastic resetting member 330 is connected with the bracket 320, the other end is connected with the blocking member 310, and the blocking member 310 can be reset under the action of the elastic resetting member 330. Specifically, after the stopper 310 is pushed open, the stopper 310 can move to the moving path of the test tube 20 by the elastic restoring member 330, so as to block the next test tube.

More specifically, the bracket 320 includes a first connecting portion 321 spaced apart from and opposite to the loading plate 100, the blocking member 310 is disposed between the loading plate 100 and the first connecting portion 321, one side of the blocking member 310 close to the loading plate 100 is rotatably connected to the loading plate 100, and one side of the blocking member 310 close to the first connecting portion 321 is rotatably connected to the first connecting portion 321. The elastic reset member 330 is an extension spring, the bracket 320 further includes a second connecting portion 322 spaced from the blocking member 310, the spacing direction between the second connecting portion 322 and the blocking member 310 is consistent with the width direction of the sliding slot 110, one end of the extension spring is connected to the blocking member 310, and the other end of the extension spring is connected to the second connecting portion 322. In this way, the extension spring can provide a reset force for the blocking member 310, and after the blocking member 310 is pushed open by the test tube 20, the extension spring can pull the blocking member 310, so that the blocking member 310 rotates to the moving path of the test tube 20.

Wherein, first connecting portion 321 is plate-shaped, first connecting portion 321 and loading board 100 interval and relative setting, be equipped with first hole on the first connecting portion 321, loading board 100 be equipped with the second hole that first hole set up relatively, it is the board to stop 310, stops 310 and wears to locate between first connecting portion 321 and loading board 100, and stops 310 and be close to one side of first connecting portion 321 and be equipped with the first arch of rotationally wearing to locate in the first hole, stop 310 and be close to one side of loading board 100 and be equipped with the second arch of rotationally wearing to locate in the second hole. The blocking member 310 is rotatable relative to the carrier plate 100, and under normal conditions, the blocking member 310 is disposed opposite to the sliding groove 110, and the blocking member 310 is located on the moving path of the test tube 20, and when the blocking member 310 is pushed open, the blocking member 310 is deflected.

In addition, in the process of pushing the test tube 20 toward the drop hole 111 by the pushing mechanism 200, the pushing mechanism 200 needs to stop before pushing the test tube 20 to the stopper 310 to wait for the next station to finish labeling on the previous test tube. When the pushing mechanism 200 stops operating, the test tube 20 will continue to move toward the drop hole 111 under the action of inertia, and when the test tube 20 moves to contact with the blocking member 310, the test tube 20 can be blocked by the blocking member 310 to stop sliding; after the previous test tube is labeled at the next station, the pushing mechanism 200 may continue to push the test tube 20 to move toward the drop hole 111, and at this time, the test tube 20 may push away the stopper 310 under the action of the pushing mechanism 200 and be pushed to the drop hole 111 to enter the next station. Compared with the mode that the test tube 20 is conveyed on the inclined slide way by the gravity, the mode that the test tube conveying device 10 is used for conveying the test tube 20 has high controllability, and the risk that the test tube 20 slides uncontrollably due to the gravity is eliminated; and set up barrier mechanism 300, can prevent that test tube 20 from just getting into the risk of next station when the action of pasting the mark has not been accomplished yet in next station.

after the test tube 20 falls down between the first guide plate 510 and the second guide plate 520 from the right above the carrier plate 100, the test tube 20 can slide down into the sliding groove 110 under the action of the first guide plate 510 and the second guide plate 520, and the test tube 20 can be hung on the carrier plate 100 by virtue of the characteristic that the diameter of the tube cap is larger than that of the sliding groove 110 and automatically adjusted to be in a vertical state; when the test tube sensor detects that the test tube 20 enters the chute 110, the controller controls the driving source 211 to start, so that the pushing member 222 is driven by the synchronous belt 212 to push the test tube 20 to move towards the dropping hole 111; when the pushing member 222 moves to the front of the blocking member 310, the driving source 211 stops to wait for the next station to finish labeling the previous test tube; when the pushing mechanism 200 stops operating, the test tube 20 will continue to move towards the drop hole 111 under the action of inertia, and when the test tube 20 moves to contact with the blocking member 310, the test tube 20 can be blocked by the blocking member 310 to stop sliding; after the next station finishes labeling the previous test tube, the controller controls the driving source 211 to start, so that the pushing member 222 continues to push the test tube 20 to move toward the drop hole 111, and at this time, the test tube 20 can be pushed away from the blocking member 310 by the pushing member 222 and pushed to the drop hole 111 to enter the next station.

As shown in fig. 1 to 5, an embodiment also relates to a test tube labeling system comprising the test tube transport device 10 as described above.

The test tube labeling system has the test tube transporting device 10, and the test tube transporting device 10 can provide power for the test tube 20 after the test tube 20 penetrates into the sliding groove 110 and is suspended on the loading plate 100 during use, so that the test tube 20 moves towards the falling hole 111 along the length direction of the sliding groove 110. In addition, in the process of pushing the test tube 20 toward the drop hole 111 by the pushing mechanism 200, the pushing mechanism 200 needs to stop before pushing the test tube 20 to the stopper 310 to wait for the next station to finish labeling on the previous test tube. When the pushing mechanism 200 stops operating, the test tube 20 will continue to move toward the drop hole 111 under the action of inertia, and when the test tube 20 moves to contact with the blocking member 310, the test tube 20 can be blocked by the blocking member 310 to stop sliding; after the previous test tube is labeled at the next station, the pushing mechanism 200 may continue to push the test tube 20 to move toward the drop hole 111, and at this time, the test tube 20 may push away the stopper 310 under the action of the pushing mechanism 200 and be pushed to the drop hole 111 to enter the next station. Compared with the mode that the test tube 20 is conveyed on the inclined slide way by the gravity, the mode that the test tube conveying device 10 is used for conveying the test tube 20 has high controllability, and the risk that the test tube 20 slides uncontrollably due to the gravity is eliminated; and set up barrier mechanism 300, can prevent that test tube 20 from just getting into the risk of next station when the action of pasting the mark has not been accomplished yet in next station.
