[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, a liquid adding seat 401 is fixedly connected to the fixing seat 4, and a sealing cover 402 is threadedly connected to the liquid adding seat 401. The liquid adding seat 401 stores the lubricating liquid, and the sealing cover 402 seals the opening of the liquid adding seat 401.

[0037] like Figure 8As shown, the liquid extraction mechanism 9 includes a liquid extraction tube 901, which is connected and fixed to the guide ring 5, and the output end of the liquid extraction tube 901 is connected and fixed with a liquid adding tube 902, and the input end of the liquid extraction tube 901 is connected and fixed with a liquid guide tube 903, and the other end of the liquid guide tube 903 extends to the inner wall of the liquid adding seat 401 for communication, and the inner wall of the liquid extraction tube 901 is provided with a pumping and pressing plug 904 in a sliding manner, and one end of the pumping and pressing plug 904 is connected and fixed with a plug rod 906, and the outer end of the plug rod 906 is rotatably connected and provided with a push-pull rod 905. A one-way valve is installed in the input and output ends of the liquid extraction tube 901, and the model of the one-way valve is a spring ball valve. The spring-type one-way valve uses the pressure of the spring to control the opening and closing of the valve. When the fluid flows in the forward direction, the valve is subjected to the fluid pressure to open the passage; and when it flows in the reverse direction, the pressure of the spring will close the valve to prevent backflow.

[0038] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, a limiting groove 501 is provided on one side of the guide ring 5 close to the annular frame 7. The limiting groove 501 realizes the rotation of the annular frame 7.

At this time, the spring 804 drives the clamping rod 803 to clamp and fix the disposable cotton swab 805. Then, under the action of the tension spring 808, the adjusting rack 807 drives the fixing sleeve 802 connected to the adjusting wheel 809 to maintain an inclined state.

[0045] Then the insertion end 2 of the disposable hysteroscope is passed through the guide ring 5, and the motor 601 is used to drive the worm 602 to rotate, so that the worm 602 drives the worm wheel 604 to rotate, and then the worm wheel 604 drives the push-pull rod 905 connected to the connecting rod 605, so that the push-pull rod 905 drives the pumping plug 904 connected to the plug rod 906 to move back and forth, so that the lubricating liquid in the liquid adding seat 401 is sucked into the liquid extraction tube 901 through the liquid guide tube 903, and then squeezed out through the liquid adding tube 902 and dripped onto the insertion end 2;

[0046] Then the driving wheel 603 connected to the worm 602 will drive the limiting ring 701 connected to the annular rack 702, thereby driving the annular frame 7 to rotate forward and reverse, so that the disposable cotton swab 805 continuously and evenly applies the lubricant on the insertion end 2, and then connects the insertion end 2 to the handle 1, and then inserts the insertion end 2 into the patient's body for examination.
