Automatic ultrasonic probe coating device

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to an automatic ultrasonic probe coating device. According to the automatic ultrasonic probe coating device, a display screen is arranged on the front side of a body, a sealing cabin door is arranged on the upper surface of the body, a coupling agent sealing cabin is arranged below the sealing cabin door and is a semispherical cavity, a nozzle is arranged below the coupling agent sealing cabin, a nozzle switch is arranged on the nozzle, the body around the nozzle is an arc surface provided with a sensor A, a control panel cabin is also arranged at the upper part of the body, a body inner cabin is arranged at the back of the body, a body back board is arranged on the back surface of the body inner cabin, a coating motor is mounted on the body back board, the output end of the coating motor is connected with a planetary gear train, output of the planetary gear train is connected with a preservation film roller, a lithium battery cabin is arranged below the body inner cabin, a U-shaped base is also arranged below the body, and a sensor B is also arranged on the lower slope of the body. The device can automatically spray a coupling agent to coat an ultrasonic probe, and is convenient, efficient and good in user experience.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to a device for automatically wrapping an ultrasonic probe. Background technique [0002] With the popularization of ultrasound visualization technology, techniques such as ultrasound examination, ultrasound-guided puncture, and ultrasound-guided nerve block are increasingly used in clinical work. [0003] The principle of ultrasonography is to use a probe that emits ultrasound to scan different parts of the human body, and different tissues of the human body have different acoustic impedances to form ultrasound images. In order to reduce the air gap between the probe and the tissue, minimize the difference in acoustic impedance, and protect the skin tissue and the probe from abrasion, it is necessary to coat the coupling agent between the ultrasonic probe and the human tissue. However, for patients undergoing routine ultrasound examinations, the current domestic practice...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] 1. The coupling agent wrapped around disposable silicone gloves is not easy to shift, but it will affect the acoustic impedance of the ultrasonic probe to a certain extent;

[0006] 2. Disposable plastic wrap is inconvenient to wrap and is easily damaged, resulting in extravasation of coupling agent;

[0007] 3. Disposable sterile laparoscopic protective sleeves can ensure sterility within the scope, but the wrapping operation is inconvenient and costly;

[0008] 4. In clinical work, the commonly used couplant is in a soft can, which needs to be squeezed manually on the probe. A part of the couplant is often wasted and discarded, which is time-consuming and laborious and inconvenient to waste

[0009] However, in the above methods, the principle of applying couplant on the ultrasonic probe and wrapping the probe with a disposable plastic film is worthy of attention. The probe automatic wrapping device can fill the gap in clinical practice that lacks a convenient, quick and clean facility to coat the ultrasound probe with coupling agent and isolate it from the tissue wrapping of each patient's examination site
