[0020] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0021] See also Figure 1-3The present embodiment provides an airway protection device, including a U-shaped limiting connecting rod 1; and also includes: an outward expansion handle 2, which is installed at both ends of the U-shaped limiting connecting rod 1, a side arm 4 is installed on one side of the inner wall of the outward expansion handle 2, and a locking piece 13 is installed on the inner side of the side arm 4; a bracket 5, which is installed on the outer wall of one side of the side arm 4, and a C-shaped buckle 6 is installed at one end of the bracket 5.

[0022] See also Figure 1 An airbag 7 is installed on the inner wall of the C-shaped buckle 6, an inflation tube 8 is installed on the outer wall of the airbag 7, and an inflation pressurized ball 9 is installed at one end of the inflation tube 8. The C-shaped buckle 6 can be used to clamp and fix the endotracheal tube. After inflation, the airbag 7 on the inner wall of the C-shaped buckle 6 can compress the endotracheal tube to make it more secure and prevent the endotracheal tube from slipping during the oral protection process.

[0023] See also Figure 3 An inflation valve 14 is installed at the connection between the inflatable and pressurized ball 9 and the inflation tube 8. When inflating, the inflation valve 14 is pressed to allow the gas to enter the inflatable and pressurized ball 9. Then, the inflatable and pressurized ball 9 is squeezed by hand to introduce the gas into the airbag 7 along the inflation tube 8, thereby achieving inflation of the airbag 7.

[0024] See also Figure 1 The outer wall of the outward expansion handle 2 is provided with anti-slip grooves 3, and the anti-slip grooves 3 are integrally formed with the outward expansion handle 2. When the medical staff pulls the outward expansion handle 2 outward, the patient's mouth can be opened. The setting of the anti-slip grooves 3 increases the friction between the hand and the outward expansion handle 2 to avoid slipping during operation.

[0025] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 A connecting piece 11 is installed at the connection between the outward expansion handle 2 and the U-shaped limit connecting rod 1, and the connecting piece 11 and the outward expansion handle 2 are integrally formed. The connecting piece 11 is connected to the U-shaped limit connecting rod 1 through a screw 12, and a nut 10 is installed at the connection between the screw 12 and the U-shaped limit connecting rod 1. The U-shaped limit connecting rod 1 is a detachable structure, and the U-shaped limit connecting rod 1 of a suitable size can be replaced according to the opening requirements.

[0026] Working principle: When in use, the medical staff inserts the device into the patient's mouth, holds the outward expansion handles 2 on both sides of the U-shaped limit connecting rod 1, adjusts the position, makes the locking piece 13 on the inner side of the side arm 4 hook on the oral wall, and then pulls the outward expansion handle 2 outward on both sides to achieve the effect of opening the patient's mouth, and then inserts the tracheal tube into the C-shaped buckle 6 on the bracket 5. After inserting, press the inflation valve 14 to allow the gas to enter the inflation pressure ball 9, and then pinch the inflation pressure ball 9 to introduce the gas into the air bag 7 along the inflation tube 8. After inflation, the air bag 7 can compress the tracheal tube to make it more securely fixed, prevent the tracheal tube from slipping during the oral care process, and facilitate medical staff to perform oral care operations.

[0027] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive from any point of view, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be regarded as limiting the claim to which it relates.
