Referring to fig. 13, in some embodiments, the medical consumable loading device further includes a scan detection device including a sensing device disposed on the first clamping plate 527 and/or the second clamping plate 528 of the storage box clamping device 520, and the sensing device is used for detecting whether the storage box receiving chamber 200 is loaded with the medical consumable storage box and whether the medical consumable storage box is loaded with the medical consumable. It is understood that the installation position of the sensing device is not limited, and the sensing device may be disposed at any position for the purpose of detection as long as the first clamping plate 527 and the second clamping plate 528 of the cartridge clamping device 520 are not hindered. Such as the clamping surface (the surface indicated by arrow I) of the first clamping plate 527 and/or the second clamping plate 528 for clamping the medical consumable storage cartridge, or may be arranged at the bottom of the first clamping plate 527 and/or the second clamping plate 528. Of course, depending on the type of the sensing means, it may be provided on one side of the first clamping plate 527 or the second clamping plate 528, or the components constituting the sensing means may be provided on the first clamping plate 527 and the second clamping plate 528, respectively.
Referring to fig. 13, in some embodiments, the sensing device includes only one sensor 529. Specifically, the sensor 529 moves along with the cartridge clamping device 520 to detect whether the medical consumable cartridge is loaded in each receiving position of the cartridge receiving chamber 200 at the first detection height and whether the medical consumable cartridge is loaded in the medical consumable cartridge at the second detection height; it can be understood, because medical consumables load in medical consumables storage box, and want to let sensor 529 detect, the second detects the height and can detect a height scope from the medical consumables storage box medical consumables that exposes, as long as do not influence and detect the precision, the second detects the height and can adjust at this height within range, it is corresponding, first detect the height also indicates to expose the height scope that can realize that sensor 529 detects medical consumables storage box at medical consumables storage box and hold storehouse 200 in the height scope, therefore, sensor 529 can be implemented in certain extent along with the removal of storage box clamping device 520 in vertical direction, so that sensor 529 detects the condition that highly detects medical consumables storage box and medical consumables respectively at first detection height and second.
Specifically, the sensor 529 may be one of a correlation type photosensor, a retro-reflection type photosensor, and a diffuse reflection type photosensor; it will be appreciated that the arrangement of the sensor 529 may be adjusted accordingly, depending on the type of sensor 529. For example, when the sensor 529 is a correlation type photoelectric sensor, an emitting end of the sensor 529 is disposed on one of the first clamp plate 527 and the second clamp plate 528, and a receiving end of the sensor 529 is disposed on the other of the first clamp plate 527 and the second clamp plate 528; the correlation type photoelectric sensor changes the state of a signal by the change of light received by the receiving end from the transmitting end, so that the purpose of sensing is achieved, that is, when an object is arranged between the first clamping plate 527 and the second clamping plate 528 to block or change the light signal received by the receiving end from the transmitting end, the state of the sensor 529 is correspondingly changed, and the detection effect is achieved. For another example, when the sensor 529 is a retro-reflective photoelectric sensor, the emitting end and the receiving end of the sensor 529 are both provided on one of the first clamp plate 527 and the second clamp plate 528, and the retro-reflective plate of the sensor 529 is provided on the other of the first clamp plate 527 and the second clamp plate 528. Of course, when the sensor 529 may be a diffuse reflection type photoelectric sensor, the emitting end and the receiving end of the sensor 529 are provided to the first clamp plate 527 or the second clamp plate 528. Accordingly, the type of the sensor 529 is different, the mode of receiving light feedback is different, and accordingly, the arrangement mode of the action part of the sensor 529 is adjusted, so that a good detection function can be realized.
Referring to fig. 14, in other embodiments, the sensing device includes a first sensor 530 and a second sensor 531 vertically spaced by a distance Δ h. Of course, the first sensor 530 and the second sensor 531 may also be of the type of the above-mentioned sensor 529, wherein the first sensor 530 is used to detect whether the medical consumable storage cartridge is loaded in each receiving position of the storage cartridge receiving compartment 200, and the second sensor 531 is used to detect whether the medical consumable storage cartridge is loaded with the medical consumable. It should be noted that, the vertical distance Δ h between the first sensor 530 and the second sensor 531 means that there is a certain distance between the installation positions of the first sensor 530 and the second sensor 531 in the vertical direction, so that when the first sensor 530 detects the medical consumable storage box at the first detection height, the second sensor 531 can synchronously detect the medical consumables at the second detection height; that is to say, this vertical interval delta h is as long as can satisfy each sensor and snatch along with the storage box and load 500 and remove and whether load and load medical consumptive material storage box and medical consumptive material storage box in detecting storage box holding chamber 200 simultaneously and whether load and load medical consumptive material, and the vertical interval delta h value between the sensor can not influence scanning detection device's normal work. In fact, the value of Δ h may be defined according to the recognition error of the sensor between two points, and if Δ h is too small, i.e. the distance between the sensors in the vertical direction is too close, the detection objects at the first detection position and the second detection position may be confused by the error of the sensor, and the detection result may be distorted. Each of Δ h in the present embodiment is a numerical range constituted by vertical intervals between a series of sensors set to satisfy the sensor identification capability.
In the above embodiment, when the first sensor 530 and/or the second sensor 531 are correlation type photosensors, the emitting end of the first sensor 530 and/or the second sensor 531 is provided on one of the first clamp plate 527 and the second clamp plate 528, and the receiving end of the first sensor 530 and/or the second sensor 531 is provided on the other of the first clamp plate 527 and the second clamp plate 528; when the first sensor 530 and/or the second sensor 531 are retro-reflective photoelectric sensors, the emitting end and the receiving end of the first sensor 530 and/or the second sensor 531 are disposed together on one of the first clamp plate 527 and the second clamp plate 528, and the retro-reflective plate of the first sensor 530 and/or the second sensor 531 is disposed on the other of the first clamp plate 527 and the second clamp plate 528. When the first sensor 530 and/or the second sensor 531 are diffuse reflection type photoelectric sensors, the emitting end and the receiving end of the first sensor 530 and/or the second sensor 531 are disposed together on the first chucking plate 527 or the second chucking plate 528. The first sensor 530 and the second sensor 531 may be disposed on the first clamping plate 527 or the second clamping plate 528, or may be disposed on the first clamping plate 527 and the second clamping plate 528, respectively. That is to say, as long as there is the position of interval Δ h with first sensor 530 and second sensor 531 setting in vertical direction, because the detection height of medical consumptive material and the detection height of medical consumptive material storage box are different, therefore first sensor 530 and second sensor 531 snatch along with the storage box and load when 500 remove, just can detect simultaneously whether load has medical consumptive material storage box and whether load has medical consumptive material in the medical consumptive material storage box in storage box containing bin 200, and select the concrete model of first sensor 530 and second sensor 531 and can not influence scanning detection device's normal work. It should be noted that, in order to realize that first sensor 530 and second sensor 531 scan simultaneously and detect, storage box displacement device 510 will remove storage box clamping device 520 to the detection height, that is to say, under this detection height, first sensor 530 can respond to whether or not the loading has medical consumptive material storage box in storage box accommodation chamber 200, and simultaneously, second sensor 531 can respond to whether or not the loading has medical consumptive material in the medical consumptive material storage box.
