Automatic Sterile Glove Donning Device
มุมมอง 9K2 ปีที่แล้ว
The Automatic Sterile Glove Donning Device aids with the donning of disposable medical hand gloves. The device automatically loads a glove and inflates it, allowing users to easily don their gloves in seconds.
hey does anyone know what this type of gear is called?
Interesting
this look like a patent I saw online at the US patent site. I would suggest you don't violate the IP and Patent.
Where can I buy one?
Good device. This can be very helpful for elderly. Is this device available for purchase?
So the location of the glove thumb will vary since the gloves get moved around in the box so does the user have to feel around for the thumb to place glove on properly or ? And I would say a uv sanitizing light would assist in cleanliness as long as the frequency of use isn’t so rapid the light doesn’t have sufficient time to sanitize the contaminated areas
I found this video because was trying to find a way to do something quite similar, because I found HeroHealth, and was appalled by their subscription cost. Did you finish developing this? Is there anywhere I can get the STL files and schematics to continue your work?
so what happens when someone contamninates the part where you insert your hand? The glove touches that whole area when removing it ... thus contaminating the glove
Did you not consider the fact that this device would be put in a sterile environment and any hands entering the port would be washed thoroughly. Have you never seen a medical facility and the procedures individuals who would actually use this preform before putting their hands in the glover? You are crazy if you think contaminations is a problem. smh.🤦♀🤦♀🤦♀
Interesting point. An over enginneered solution could auto clean the opening each time.
Hello Michael, is there any chance to get detail draweings or correspondendig files? Thanks for answering me to Austria !!!
¿Alguno me podría decir que microcontroladores salen en el video? no alcanzo a leer... gracias de antemano Could anyone tell me which microcontrollers are in the video? I can't read... thanks
Have you ever thought of commercializing this?
How to accomplish step 3?
can you give the 3D model designs
Hi there, my group is working on a automatic pill dispenser. Are you able to provide the stl files for this? Thanks
nice design , but there is still a possibility with many pills inside a compartment for an extra pill to fall, especially for small pils
Id liek to own one of these on days, I dont want pay for a hero subscription or pay $1000+ for a medacube
Such a clutch video. Building one atm. Thanks for your through breakdown!
Hi! I having the same project like this, It would help me a ton if you can share your project how it made?
I have a hero and has 10 containers for different pills could use 15. There is no plate for specific size of pill as I can put any pill in any of the 10 containers. Not sure how they do this but has something to do with the resonance they create with stepper motors. It works reasonably well have never seen a multiple drop of a pill but occasionally it cannot pick one.
dude this is fantastic, I wish I found this much sooner before I design my own version. the seems like it's a lot more reliable than mine.
you should make a follow up video and make this one lol credits given of course
Pleas3 provide the stl files
Why the fuck do we need a stupid app for this? What the hell happened to basic mechanical solutions?
I'm sure his work doesn't prevent you from making your own version. Please share the STLs, it would help many
Is ready for sell?
Sir can you share the STL file of this please..
*If you Notice Then you can see when he put his hand inside to get a glove his forearm touch that place and when he get take his hand out glove touched the same place so the glove can get dirty if his forearm is dirty!*
For a long time, I've been seeking for anything similar to this. I have access to a 3D printer and was wondering if there was any way I could obtain the STL files?
Incredibly smart design. Are the STL files available anywhere?
Hi Michael, Absolutely fantastic design! I have been looking for something like this for a long time. I'm 64 and my wife died a few years ago, since then I have been on a quest to maintain and improve my health, with supplements being just one part of the puzzle. I take anti-oxidants, vitamins, anti-Inflamitants (for my arthritis), supplements to increase my circulation, etc. So right now I I take 19 different supplements for a total of 42 pills a day. I manually sort them into pill bags. One for the morning (23 pills) and one for the evening (19 pills). So, is there any chance you could share your 3d printer files and the specifics of the stepper motors? I will try to expand your design to accommodate my 19 different pill type requirements. I have a 3d printer and just recently started playing with Arduino code but don't know C, so will probably have to try to replicate the functioning of your code in the Arduino environment. Amy help would be greatly appreciated! Carl
Sorry about the typo! ...Any help would be...
Paused the video and got the info on the stepper motor. Thanks!
Hey that's a very cool project. Can I ask what software was used for animating your dispenser's parts ?
Autodesk Inventor was used to design the parts.
Very nice design, you should try it for several thousand pills to drop out. I would prefer one stepper motor for the whole three or more containers. think about less complexity
Hi! We are working on making a pill dispenser for our university project and your video really helped! Is there a way you can provide us with more information about the actual design of the disks? Thank you and greeting from the Netherlands!
Hey! The hardest part of designing the disks was getting the slots the correct size and shape to allow only one pill to be dispensed. Getting the slots the correct size took a lot of trial and error. I found that having the pill slide into the slot on an angle and having the top of the pill sit just below the top of the disk while it was in the slot worked best. At first, I thought I could just design the slot to pick up each pill horizontally. But with this design, two pills would sometimes be dispensed at the same time or two pills would get caught upright in the slot and would jam the device once the pills hit the "sweeper arm". Having the pills sit inside the slot on an angle and positioned just below the top of the disk ensured only one pill was collected and if another pill did manage to get caught, the sweeper arm would just brush it off. Pause the video at time 2:22 to get a clear picture of it. The rest of the design of the disk includes a threaded hole at the bottom of it (to secure the motor gear) and the two slots at the top of the disk hold the agitator piece. I'm not sure if this helps.
@@michaelsangiorgio9959 Dear Michael! I am working on a university project about dispensing medicals and I found your video very useful for this project. My problem was the same, dispensing just one medicine, not 2 or 3. My question is that dont you have any cad or stl, stp file about the model? I couldnt really understand the working mechanism, this is why i am asking. Thank you for your helping and your answer as well! P. s: Congratulations for the machine and for the solution! Amazing idea.
Is this motorized?
Who are you working with to produce these?
Hey dude! I'm working on automatic pill dispenser. Just what you are doing, but i've also designed a "two axis cartesian robot" in order to move the "weekly pill dispenser" just below of the pills exit. This is my final degreee thesis and you have helped to me to have an idea about how I could administrate the pills one by one. I've had an idea like this, but i didin't thought about the agitator piece and the sweeper arm. Congrats and thank you.
If you want to take a look to my final degree thesis, you should wait until the working end due to the university rules. Welcome from Barcelona!
That's awesome. Glad my design helped you!! I spent a great deal of time testing and figuring out how to administrate the pills one by one accurately and consistently. Let me know if you have any questions on the design. I would love to see how your final project turns out!
@@michaelsangiorgio9959 Do you have any issues with missed dispenses? I've considered something similar but rather than assuming one pill per rotation, I was planning on using some sort of a light detection to verify that an object fell. Are your designs are reliable enough that it's unnecessary to verify a dispense?
@@FredDamstraThe design of the device ensures that no more than one pill can be dispensed. Including the sensor would be the next step in this project. The sensor would verify that a pill was dispensed and could be used to determine if there is a jam in the system or if the pills need to be refilled.
@@aroelclavell1231 hi I have also taken interest on this project i know that you comment it for a long time now but i was task to make similar to that, can I see your project?
