Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gastroenterology, specifically a novel air-proof vomit storage device for use in hospital gastroenterology departments. Background Technology

[0002] As is well known, the gastroenterology department includes gastroenterology and gastrointestinal surgery. It is a clinical department set up by hospitals at all levels to diagnose and treat digestive system diseases. Most patients treated in the gastroenterology department will experience vomiting. When storing, transporting and processing patients' vomit, vomit storage devices are needed to help staff process the patients' vomit.

[0003] Traditional vomit storage devices often suffer from poor sealing performance, which makes them prone to gas leakage under high pressure or when the equipment is subjected to slight vibration. Such leakage not only degrades the air quality in the hospital environment and fills the air with unpleasant odors, but may also allow harmful gases and pathogens in the vomit to spread into the air, increasing the risk of cross-infection and posing a potential threat to the health of medical staff and patients. Due to design limitations, these devices are difficult to clean thoroughly and effectively, often leaving dirt residue that not only affects the hygiene of the equipment but may also become a breeding ground for bacteria.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-4A novel leak-proof vomit storage device for use in the gastroenterology department of a hospital includes a storage box 1, a feed pipe 2, a sealing cover 3, an automatic sealing device, and a cleaning device. The storage box 1 has an inner cavity 4. The feed pipe 2 is installed at the top of the storage box 1. The sealing cover 3 is installed at the top of the feed pipe 2 via the automatic sealing device. The automatic sealing device includes a sealing ring 5, a first electric telescopic rod 6, a fixing plate 7, a top seat 8, a drive motor 9, a gear 10, a slide 11, a rack 12, a positioning block 13, a locking block 14, and a locking groove 15. The sealing ring 5 is installed inside the sealing cover 3. The first electric telescopic rod 6 is installed on the top wall of the storage box 1 at both ends of the feed pipe 2. The sealing cover 3 has a sealing ring 5 installed inside the sealing cover 3. The first electric telescopic rod 6 is installed on the top wall of the storage box 1 at both ends of the feed pipe 2. The fixed plate 7 is installed at both ends of the first electric telescopic rod 6. The output end of the first electric telescopic rod 6 is connected to the bottom wall of the fixed plate 7. The top seat 8 is installed at the top of the sealing cover 3. The drive motor 9 is installed on the top wall of the top seat 8. The bottom output end of the drive motor 9 passes through the top wall of the top seat 8 and extends into the inner cavity of the top seat 8. The gear 10 is installed therein. The left and right ends of the gear 10 are staggered with two sets of racks 12. The front and rear ends of the top seat 8 are staggered with two sets of sliding grooves 11 that pass through the inner cavity of the top seat 8. The two sets of racks 12 pass through the two sets of sliding grooves 11 respectively and are equipped with positioning blocks 13. The inner side walls of the two sets of positioning blocks 13 are equipped with locking blocks 14. The front and rear side walls of the feed pipe 2 are equipped with locking blocks. The storage tank 1 has a fixed groove 15, and the locking block 14 is adapted to the locking groove 15. A discharge pipe 16 is installed on the lower side wall of the storage tank 1, and a solenoid valve 17 is installed on the discharge pipe 16. A controller 18 is installed on the top wall of the storage tank 1 away from the feed pipe 2. The cleaning device is installed inside the storage tank 1, and a moving device is installed on the bottom wall of the storage tank 1. In this embodiment, when it is necessary to collect vomit, the operator activates the automatic sealing device through the controller 18. At this time, the drive motor 9 starts, and the output end of the drive motor 9 drives the gear 10 to rotate. During the rotation of the gear 10, the two sets of racks 12 move outward in the slide groove 11. The ends of the two sets of racks 12 drive the positioning block 13 to move outward in a straight line, so that the locking block 14 is in the groove 11. The locking groove 15 is withdrawn, and the two sets of first electric telescopic rods 6 extend simultaneously, driving the fixing plate 7 to lift the sealing cover 3, opening the feed pipe. Vomit enters the storage chamber 4 through the feed pipe 2. Once the vomit is discharged, the controller 18 (manually triggered by medical staff) closes the feed port, the first electric telescopic rods 6 retract, pushing the sealing cover 3 tightly against the top of the feed pipe 2. Under the pressure of the sealing cover 3, the sealing ring 5 makes tight contact with the top wall of the feed pipe 2, achieving a seal. The drive motor 9 rotates in the opposite direction, and through the movement of the gear 10 and rack 12, the positioning block 13 drives the locking block 14 to re-embed into the locking groove 15 of the feed pipe 2, achieving a double seal to prevent any gas leakage. When the amount of vomit in the storage box 1 reaches a certain level,Alternatively, when cleaning is required, the solenoid valve 17 on the discharge pipe 16 can be opened via the controller 18 to discharge the material in the storage chamber 4 to a suitable processing facility. After emptying, the interior is thoroughly cleaned and disinfected using the cleaning device inside the storage tank 1 for future use. If it is necessary to move the device to another location, the entire device can be easily moved to the desired location using the bottom movable device.

[0026] In actual use, the storage cavity 4 is further cleaned. In this embodiment, the cleaning device includes a second electric telescopic rod 19, an L-shaped frame 20, a diverter ball 21, a nozzle 22, a water tank 23, a water pump 24, a water outlet pipe 25, and a hose 26. The second electric telescopic rod 19 is installed on the top wall of the storage box 1. The bottom output end of the second electric telescopic rod 19 penetrates the top wall of the storage box 1 and extends into the storage cavity 4. The L-shaped frame 20 is installed inside the storage cavity 4. The diverter ball 21 is installed at the output end of the L-shaped frame 20. Multiple sets of nozzles are installed on the outer wall of the diverter ball 21. The nozzle 22 is described above. A water tank 23 is installed at the end of the storage tank 1 away from the storage cavity 4. A water outlet pipe 25 is installed at the top of the water tank 23. A water pump 24 is installed on the outer wall of the water outlet pipe 25. A flexible hose 26 is installed at the output end of the water outlet pipe 25. The flexible hose 26 passes through the inner cavity of the L-shaped frame 20 and connects to the diverter ball 21. When the cleaning program is started by the controller 18, the water pump 24 starts, drawing cleaning solution or disinfectant from the water tank 23 and delivering it through the water outlet pipe 25 to the flexible hose 26. The flexible hose 26 then delivers the cleaning solution to the diverter ball 21. The liquid is then evenly distributed to multiple nozzles 22 by the diverting ball 21. The nozzles 22 are designed to spray the liquid out in a high-pressure, fine stream, ensuring complete coverage and powerful rinsing of the storage cavity 4. The multiple sets of nozzles 22 installed on the diverting ball 21 can spray the walls of the storage cavity 4 from different angles, including hard-to-reach corners, ensuring no blind spots. After receiving a signal from the controller 18, the second electric telescopic rod 19 starts to move, and its bottom output end extends downward, moving the L-shaped frame 20 and the diverting ball 21 and multiple sets of nozzles 22 downward, which can be adjusted according to the height of the storage cavity 4. The nozzle 22 is flexibly adjustable to ensure that it can cover the entire surface of the storage chamber 4. Through the adjustability of the second electric telescopic rod 19 and the design of the multi-angle nozzle 22, the storage chamber 4 can be thoroughly and effectively cleaned, ensuring no dirt residue and improving cleaning efficiency. Since the nozzle 22 can accurately cover every part of the storage chamber 4, unnecessary water waste is reduced, while also ensuring cleaning quality. The automated cleaning process greatly reduces the reliance on manual operation, reduces the workload of medical staff, and also avoids the possibility of personnel directly contacting contaminants, thus improving safety.

[0027] In practical use, to further facilitate the water tank 23 filling operation, in this embodiment, the storage box 1 is equipped with a door 27 near the front end face of the water tank 23. The design of the door 27 allows medical staff or maintenance personnel to open the door 27 directly from the front, thereby making it more convenient to fill water. The door 27 not only facilitates water filling, but also allows for regular inspection of the status of the water tank 23, such as the working status of the water outlet pipe 25 and the water pump 24, so as to discover and solve problems in a timely manner.

[0028] In actual use, to further facilitate the control of the movement direction of the storage box 1 with the mobile device, in this embodiment, a push handle 28 is installed on one side wall of the storage box 1. The design of the push handle 28 makes it easier for medical staff to push or pull the storage box 1, especially when the mobile device needs to be moved frequently, thus reducing physical exertion.

[0029] In actual use, to further reduce the rise of gas, in this embodiment, two sets of inclined baffles 29 are staggered in the feed pipe 2. The two sets of inclined baffles 29 form a physical barrier to prevent the gas from flowing directly upward. When the gas encounters the baffles 29, it will be guided to change direction, slow down its rising speed, and may even be redirected back into the storage chamber 4. The staggered arrangement of the baffles 29 will disturb the airflow, causing the gas to generate vortices and turbulent flow in the feed pipe 2, further reducing the possibility of the gas rising smoothly.

[0030] Preferably, in this embodiment, a liquid level sensor 30 is installed in the storage cavity 4. The liquid level sensor 30 can monitor the liquid level in the storage cavity 4 in real time, ensuring that medical staff can understand the filling status of the storage cavity 4 at any time.

[0031] Preferably, in this embodiment, the drive motor 9 is a servo motor. Servo motors can achieve very high positional accuracy, typically reaching micron-level positioning accuracy. This is very important for the movement of gears 10 and racks 12 in the automatic sealing device, ensuring that the opening and closing of the sealing cover 3 is accurate and error-free.

[0032] In practical use, to further facilitate the movement and fixation of the storage box 1, in this embodiment, the moving device includes casters 31 and brake assembly 32. The casters 31 are installed at the four corners of the bottom of the storage box 1, and the brake assembly 32 is provided on the casters 31. The brake assembly 32 is adapted to the casters 31. The design of the casters 31 allows the storage box 1 to move freely in different directions. The brake assembly can firmly fix the storage box 1 in a designated position to prevent the device from moving accidentally during use and to ensure the safety and stability of operation.
