Development of a Test Tube Automatic Sorting Storage Device After Completion of Inspection

Abstract

ABSTRACT To develop an automatic test tube classification and storage device that sorts test tube boxes by detecting the box height and test tube cap color, improving laboratory efficiency and accuracy. An upper computer uses a No. 1 push rod to allocate test tube boxes to specific branch conveyor belts based on initial sorting criteria. Further sorting is done by the No. 2 push rod, which places boxes into adjustable slots within a seven-layer elevating storage system, categorizing them by day through height adjustment to match the conveyor belt. This invention automates test tube sorting and storage, aiding medical staff in quickly and accurately locating test tubes post-inspection.
