Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a visual self-service fishbone removal device. Background Technology

[0002] Fishbone stuck in the throat is a common problem in daily life. Children and the elderly are more prone to this due to insufficient chewing or weaker swallowing abilities, especially when eating bony fish. Traditional solutions include: 1) Home remedies (coughing, swallowing food, drinking vinegar, etc.), which have low success rates and carry risks, potentially pushing the fishbone deeper. 2) Relying on hospital treatment, where patients need to go to the hospital for professional removal by an ENT doctor, which has drawbacks such as time-consuming medical visits and delayed response to emergencies. 3) Some patients and their families attempt to remove the fishbone themselves using tools (such as household tweezers). However, these tools lack specific design and are difficult to adapt to the complex physiological structure of the throat; blindly attempting to remove the fishbone can easily cause it to shift and may even damage the throat mucosa, leading to secondary injury.

[0003] Existing tools generally lack integrated visualization functions, making it impossible to clearly observe the location of the fishbone, further increasing the difficulty of self-service operation. Regarding hygienic storage, most tools lack professional disinfection and storage structures, resulting in insufficient hygiene guarantees before and after use, posing a risk of cross-infection, and hindering practical application and operation. Summary of the Invention

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0016] (1) This invention achieves automated clamping through the cooperation of the drive structure and the gripping structure, significantly reducing the difficulty of manual operation and improving the fishbone removal rate. The flexible and bendable properties of the corrugated hose allow it to penetrate 360° into complex anatomical spaces such as the oral cavity, pharynx, and esophagus. The coordinated action of the linkage rope, connecting block, connecting rope, and torsion spring can precisely control the opening and closing of the clamping rod; the first limiting block limits and guides the linkage rope to ensure transmission stability, and works with subsequent components to achieve stable clamping of fishbones, reducing damage to the mucosa and making it easier for home first aid and clinical application.

[0017] (2) This invention ensures stable transmission of the linkage rope through the third limiting block, avoids deviation, and guarantees the reliability of the clamping action. The stable gear meshing transmission ensures efficient and precise power transmission of the drive structure, providing a reliable power source for the clamping action. The battery and charging port work together to enable the device to be self-powered, freeing it from the constraints of the power cord and improving the portability and flexibility of the device. The display shows the real-time image from the visual camera to assist in precise operation. The handle optimizes the handheld experience, improves the stability of operation, and enables visual operation, allowing users to clearly observe the position of the fishbone. The lighting ensures a clear field of vision and improves the accuracy of removing the fishbone. The anti-slip design of the rubber head improves the clamping stability. The threaded cap works with the sterilization bottle to achieve sterilization and storage of the device, avoids contamination, and ensures hygiene and safety. The anti-slip design of the handle prevents the hand from slipping during operation. The first limiting block precisely guides the linkage rope, ensuring stable transmission and improving the reliability of the device operation. Attached Figure Description

[0036] Working principle:

[0037] In use, the drive motor 18 is started, and its output shaft drives the second gear 19 to rotate. Through gear meshing, the first gear 16 and the rotating rod 14 rotate synchronously. The rotating rod is wound with the linkage rope 4, and the linkage rope moves stably under the guidance of the first limiting block 3 inside the corrugated hose 2. The linkage rope pulls the connecting block 7 inside the probe head 5, and through the connecting rope 12, it pulls the clamping rod 11 to rotate around the rotating shaft 9, compressing the torsion spring 10 to open it; when the drive motor stops or reverses, the torsion spring returns to its original position, and the clamping rod closes. The corrugated hose (2) is made of medical-grade flexible and bendable silicone material. Its internal annular reinforcing rib structure enables it to bend at any angle and maintain a stable shape after bending, ensuring both operational flexibility and maintaining the target position to complete the fishbone grabbing. The rotating rod 14 rotates and winds the linkage rope 4. The third limit block 15 restricts the position of the linkage rope to prevent it from shifting on the rotating rod. The drive motor 18 outputs power, which is transmitted to the rotating rod 14 through the meshing of the second gear 19 and the first gear 16, driving the rotating rod to rotate. The battery 20 is charged through the charging port 25. The battery supplies power to the drive motor 18 and other components. The connector 23 supports the rotation of the display 24, facilitating viewing angle adjustment; the grip 21 allows the user to hold and operate it; the visual camera 27 captures the front view of the probe 5; the light 28 provides illumination; and the image is transmitted to the display 24. The rubber head 13 utilizes medical-grade soft silicone material and anti-slip texture to enhance gripping friction; the threaded cap 22 connects to an external sterilization bottle, allowing the corrugated hose 2 and probe 5 to be placed in the sterilization bottle for storage; the wavy anti-slip texture, elastic rubber sleeve, and raised dot structure of the grip 21 increase gripping friction; the first limiting blocks 3 are distributed in a circular array, and their arc-shaped guide grooves constrain the movement trajectory of the linkage rope 4.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely principles of the invention.
