WO-A-03/011484 or WO-2011/029991 ).
  • the storage system be of simple structure and operation while guaranteeing perfect security, although the operation of storing in a container all the instruments that are part of a set necessary for use specific, for example for a specific surgical procedure, is a complex operation.
  • the invention aims to overcome this disadvantage.
  • a system according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises a device for transferring or ejecting each recognized object, the conveyor in a transport box of the object in the container for which it is intended , and a transport box support device, which is movable in step-by-step movement, each step of the transport device corresponding to a conveyor advancement step, during which the object has been recognized by the transport camera. recognition.
  • the storage system is characterized in that the transport boxes are mounted on a mobile support means, made in the form of a carousel having at its periphery said transport boxes whose number is at less equal to the number of storage containers.
  • the storage system is characterized in that the transport boxes are mounted on a movable support means moving linearly in a vas movement and which is at least as many steps as there has storage containers.
  • the storage system is characterized in that the transport device comprises at least one more transport box than there are storage containers, this additional box being intended for unloading containers. instruments that could not be unloaded in a storage container, in a waste container.
  • the storage system is characterized in that each transport box is mounted on the pivoting support between a position of receiving and transporting an object and an unloading position of an object in a storage container.
  • the storage system is characterized in that it comprises, upstream of the camera of recognition by reading the codes of the objects, a camera of shooting for the positioning of the objects on the conveyor in positions allowing recognition of objects by the reconnaissance camera.
  • the storage system is characterized in that the order and the number of the storage containers are determined according to the order of arrival on the transport device of the recognized objects.
  • the storage system is characterized in that the storage container of the assembly of which the first recognized object is part is the container which is remote from a movement step of the transport device, the receiving position of the objects to be stored.
  • the storage system is characterized in that the coordinates and the contents of the storage containers are advantageously displayed on a display screen associated with the recognition camera.
  • the invention will be described by way of example in its application to a surgical instrument storage system in predetermined storage containers, so that these containers each contain a set of instruments selected for a specific use such as a surgical intervention.
  • the invention is not limited to this application.
  • a system according to the invention comprises a conveyor 1 made in the form of an endless belt, for the reception of the surgical instruments 3 to be stored in a storage container 4 assigned, which is intended to transport these instruments 3 from their place of installation on the conveyor to a transfer point of the conveyor, by a transfer device or ejection 5, on a device 6 of transport of the transferred instruments in their storage container.
  • the transport device comprises a support means 7 made in the form of a carousel, comprising at its periphery a number of transport boxes 8, each intended to receive an instrument 3 transferred from the conveyor 1.
  • the carousel moves in a stepwise motion, the boxes 8 being uniformly distributed at the periphery of the carousel.
  • a support table 9 a storage container 4, in the figures in FIG. shape of a box, so that the instrument in a transport box 8 can be transferred into a storage container.
  • the system comprises N-1 storage containers.
  • the transport boxes 8 are mounted on the carousel, pivoting between a receiving position and transport of an instrument and a position of unloading thereof in the corresponding storage container 4.
  • each of these containers 4 is intended to contain a set of surgical instruments, established for a predetermined use, for example a surgical procedure, as has been stated above.
  • the system is equipped with an instrument recognition device, by means of a reconnaissance camera 12 instruments 3 by reading a specific code which is provided each instrument.
  • the figure 5 shows by way of example an instrument coded by a number of coding points distributed in a unique manner for this instrument over an area, for example square, of the surface of the instrument. Of course, any other means of coding could be provided.
  • the instrument recognition camera 12 hereinafter referred to as the decoding camera, is located upstream of the transfer location.
  • the system according to the invention comprises another camera noted 14 which is a camera and has the function of reproducing on its display screen 15 the image of the instrument which is arranged in its field of view on the conveyor.
  • This camera thus makes it possible to place the instrument on the conveyor so that the zone 16 which contains the code is in the center of the screen 15 and therefore in a position which enables the decoding camera 12 to read this code optimal when the instrument is in its field of vision.
  • the surgical instruments to be stored in the storage containers 4 are arranged on the conveyor by an operator who has a console 17 for controlling the conveyor.
  • each instrument After correctly placing a first instrument 3 which is named 3a to facilitate the understanding of the invention, on the conveyor 1, with the coding zone under the camera, in the field of view thereof, position that the operator can monitor by means of the screen, it presses a button on its control panel 17, which sets the conveyor in motion so that it carries the instrument to the device of transfer 5 by passing it under the decoding camera 12.
  • each instrument can have on both sides, namely the face facing upwards and the face on which it rests on the conveyor , the code characterizing it.
  • the instrument 3a When the instrument 3a passes under the decoding camera 12, it reads the code and recognizes, that is to say, identifies the instrument. When the instrument is in front of the transfer device, the latter moves the instrument perpendicular to the axis of the conveyor and pushes it on the inclined plane 19 which allows the instrument to slide into the transport box 8 of the carousel, who is in front of him and who is named 8a.
  • the operator has placed on the conveyor in the field of view of the camera 14 a second instrument named 3b.
  • this instrument is correctly positioned, that is to say its code is in the center of the image reproduced on the screen
  • the operator presses the control button of his desk 17, which makes start the conveyor which then moves the instrument to the decoding camera 12 so that it can recognize, that is to say, identify the instrument, and up to the transfer device 5, on the one hand, and on the other hand rotating a step of the carousel so that the transport box 8a which had previously received the first instrument 3a is at the end of the step at the first storage container 4a.
  • this instrument is discharged into the second storage container 4b at the end of the second rotation step made during the recognition of the third instrument 3c that the ejector pushed into the third transport box 8c.
  • the storage container 4b then becomes the storage container of all the instruments of the assembly of which the second instrument 3b is part.
  • each step of recognizing an instrument causes the rotation of a step of the carousel.
  • the storage containers 4 intended to receive the different sets of instruments are determined as the recognition of the instruments by the decoding camera.
  • the assembly of which the first instrument 3a is part is received in the first storage container 4a and all the instruments that form part of this set will then be unloaded into this container 4a.
  • Recognition of the first instrument that is not part of the set for the storage container 4a will be placed in the second storage container 4b.
  • the first recognized instrument that is part of a third set is unloaded into the third storage container 4c and on.
  • composition of the storage containers and their identification number is displayed on a screen 18 of the decoding camera 12 so that the invention allows perfect traceability of the instruments.
  • the decoding camera 12 could be movably mounted in the moving directions of the conveyor and perpendicular to it so that it can always be placed optimally above the coding area of each instrument, under the control of the shooting camera.
  • the time that the carousel must have to perform a rotation step will then be determined by the movement of the recognized instruments, that is to say decoded, to the ejector.
  • the movement of the conveyor is then triggered at the end of the recognition operation by the camera or in any other appropriate manner.
  • a step of advancement of the conveyor could then ensure the movement of an instrument from its place of placing on the conveyor to the transfer device, and this step of advancement of the conveyor, will trigger the movement of advancement one step from the carousel.
  • the carousel could also be replaced by a device that moves the transport boxes linearly, step by step, to unload the instruments in storage containers then properly aligned.
  • the system includes in addition to storage containers a waste box for receiving instruments that could not be placed in storage containers, for various reasons. One could also consider, without departing from the scope of the invention, to determine in advance the storage containers which will then be filled according to appropriate software.
