Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and more specifically, to a mobile drainage fluid collection device. Background Technology

[0002] In the treatment or care of some patients, it is necessary to drain drainage fluid from the patient's body. After initial collection, the volume of the drainage fluid needs to be measured. Since transferring the drainage fluid between containers can affect the volume measurement, a measuring cup is often used directly to collect the drainage fluid. However, using a measuring cup to collect drainage fluid presents several problems, such as: First, the measuring cup is immovable and needs to be carried manually, which is strenuous after collecting the drainage fluid; second, in clinical work, both accuracy and large volume must be considered, requiring the carrying of both small and large measuring cups, which is inconvenient; third... When reading the scale, the measuring cup must be placed on a level table or other stable surface, and the reading should be taken perpendicular to the scale line. Then, the measuring cup should be temporarily placed on the ground to record the value. This requires doctors or nurses to repeatedly bend over and squat, increasing their workload. Fourth, drainage fluid measurement is often performed in the early morning when the indoor light is insufficient. Because of its small size and light weight, the small measuring cup is easily kicked by family members or staff when it is temporarily placed on the ground, causing the drainage fluid to spill. Fifth, the open design of the measuring cup exposes the drainage fluid of patients with infectious diseases to the air, increasing the chance of airborne transmission, which does not meet the requirements of hospital infection control.

[0003] In the existing technology, some hospitals use medical carts to move measuring cups, which can solve some of the above problems and facilitate the work of doctors or nurses to a certain extent. However, medical carts are too bulky and take up a lot of space when moving. In some wards, the beds are close together, and it is impossible to move the measuring cup to the bedside. The measuring cup still needs to be held by hand to collect it. Moreover, the height of the cart cannot be adjusted. When the measuring cup is placed at an unsuitable height, it is still necessary to hold the measuring cup by hand, which is inconvenient. In addition, the measuring cup is also easy to shake or tip over when placed on the medical cart, and it is not stable enough to use. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art where the measuring cup used in the collection of drainage fluid is moved by a trolley and cannot be moved to the bedside, making it inconvenient to use, this utility model provides a mobile drainage fluid collection device that facilitates the adjustment of the measuring cup's position, meets usage requirements, and facilitates the collection of drainage fluid.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a mobile drainage fluid collection device, comprising: a base, a movable wheel connected to the lower part of the base, a connector connected to the base, an installation component movably connected to the connector, and a first container for collecting drainage fluid, wherein the first container is installed on the installation component.

[0006] The mounting component and the connecting component are movably connected. The first container is mounted on the mounting component. Moving the mounting component via the movable connection moves the first container relative to the base, changing their relative position. This facilitates moving the first container to a suitable location for drainage fluid collection. The movable connection can be a sliding connection or a rotating connection. The rotating connection can be horizontal rotation or vertical flipping, allowing the connecting component to move relative to the mounting component and adjust their relative position. In actual use, the entire device is moved to the bedside using the casters, and then the mounting component is moved closer to the patient, making drainage operations easier for doctors or nurses. Compared to existing medical carts, the base can be made smaller while maintaining stability, taking up less space and applicable to more scenarios. It is also more convenient to use. The first container is directly mounted on the mounting component, facilitating its movement and maintaining its stability, preventing tipping. Furthermore, the casters are silent omnidirectional wheels with braking function.

[0007] Preferably, the device further includes a second container mounted on the mounting component, wherein the first container is disposed on the second container and the first container is detachably connected to the second container.

[0008] The second container is used to hold the drainage fluid collected in the first container, which can be understood as a waste liquid temporary storage tank. The first and second containers are detachable. After the drainage operation in the first container is completed, the first container is removed and the drainage fluid is poured into the second container. This allows the drainage fluid to be treated in a timely manner, reducing the chance of infection. When continuous drainage operations are required, the second container can also temporarily hold the drainage fluid from each operation for convenient handling and improved work efficiency.

[0009] Preferably, the first container includes a base plate detachably connected to the second container and a container for holding drainage fluid rotatably connected to the base plate. The base plate and the container are respectively provided with a first through hole and a second through hole. When the container is rotated to a set angle range, the first through hole and the second through hole are staggered to maintain a seal.

[0010] The base plate is rotatably connected to the container. The base plate has a first through hole, and the container has a second through hole. The base plate blocks the second through hole, sealing the bottom of the container to hold the drainage fluid. When the container rotates to a set angle range, the first and second through holes intersect, and the base plate blocks the second through hole. When the container rotates until the second through hole connects with the first through hole, the liquid inside the container flows directly into the second container, facilitating the handling of the drainage fluid and eliminating the need for pouring, making it more convenient. Specifically, the angle range depends on the angle range occupied by the first through hole and... The distance between adjacent first through holes is determined by the number of holes. This distance is the angular range of the second through hole when sealing. One or more first through holes can be provided. When only one first through hole is provided, its angular range is less than 180 degrees. To ensure sealing, the angular range of the first through hole needs to be further reduced, such as to less than 175 degrees or 170 degrees. Assuming the angle of the first through hole is 170 degrees, that is, the first through hole is located in the range of 0-170 degrees, the second through hole is located in the range of 170-360 degrees when sealing. This principle applies when multiple first through holes are provided.

[0011] Preferably, the base plate is threadedly connected to the container, and when the container is tightened, the first through hole and the second through hole are staggered.

[0012] The base plate and the container are threaded together, and the first and second through holes are staggered when the container is tightened, thereby improving the sealing performance between the base plate and the container. When cleaning the base plate and the container, they can also be completely unscrewed for easy cleaning.

[0013] Preferably, the bottom plate is threadedly connected to the second container, the second container has a protrusion inside, and the bottom plate has a groove that mates with the protrusion. When the bottom plate is screwed to a set position, the protrusion engages with the groove.

[0014] The bottom plate is threaded to the second container for easy disassembly. At the same time, the bottom plate needs to remain fixed when the container rotates relative to it. Therefore, a protrusion is provided inside the second container and a groove is provided on the bottom plate. When the bottom plate is tightened, the protrusion engages with the groove to keep the bottom plate fixed.

[0015] Preferably, the system further includes a processing unit and a liquid level sensor respectively connected to the first container, wherein the processing unit is signal-connected to the liquid level sensor.

[0016] The liquid level sensor facilitates reading the liquid level of the drainage fluid. The processing unit converts the liquid level data into volume, making it easy to read and operate. The liquid level sensor has high accuracy and also avoids the need to carry multiple measuring cups (i.e., the first container) of various volumes. Specifically, electronic liquid level sensors are preferred, such as hydrostatic liquid level sensors, LM liquid level sensors, or optical liquid level sensors.

[0017] Preferably, the system also includes a display screen connected to the first container, the display screen being signal-connected to the processing unit.

[0018] A display screen is connected to the processing unit to show measurement data, making it convenient for doctors or nurses to read the data and reducing their workload by avoiding frequent bending over. Furthermore, a voice announcer is connected to the first container and is linked to the liquid level sensor to announce the measurement data.

[0019] Preferably, the second container is connected to a handle.

[0020] The device is equipped with a handle for easy pushing.

[0021] Preferably, an indicator light is also provided on the base.

[0022] The indicator light can show the location of the base. In the early morning, when some rooms or corridors are poorly lit, the indicator light can show the location of the base to remind others and reduce the risk of the device being accidentally kicked. Specifically, the indicator light has a separate switch.

[0023] Preferably, the connector is a lifting rod, the mounting component is a crank structure, one end of the mounting component is rotatably connected to the connector, and the other end is connected to the first container.

[0024] By setting the connecting rod as a lifting rod, the height of the first container can be adjusted, making it more convenient to use. At the same time, the mounting part is a crank structure and is rotatably connected to the connecting part. Through the setting of the crank structure, when the mounting part is rotated, the end of it closest to the first container moves relative to the base, thereby driving the first container to move.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0026] 1. The mounting and connecting parts are movably connected, allowing the first container to move relative to the base. This allows the first container to be moved to a more suitable position for collecting drainage fluid, avoiding the need for doctors or nurses to hold the container for collection. This makes it more convenient and less strenuous to use.

[0027] 2. The liquid level sensor is set to automatically read the liquid level information in the first container. The processing unit converts the liquid level information into volume data, and then displays the volume data on the display screen. This ensures accuracy while facilitating the reading of volume data. Attached Figure Description

Therefore, the terms used to describe positional relationships in the drawings are only for illustrative purposes and should not be construed as limiting this patent. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0035] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0036] Example 1

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, a mobile drainage fluid collection device includes: a base 1, a movable wheel 2 connected to the lower part of the base 1, a connector 3 connected to the base 1, an installation component 4 movably connected to the connector 3, and a first container 5 for collecting drainage fluid, the first container 5 being installed on the installation component 4.

[0038] Mounting component 4 is movably connected to connecting component 3. Simultaneously, the first container 5 is mounted on mounting component 4. Moving mounting component 4 via the movable connection causes the first container 5 to move relative to the base 1, changing the relative position of the first container 5 and the base 1. This facilitates moving the first container 5 to a suitable position for collecting drainage fluid. The movable connection can be a sliding connection or a rotating connection, and the rotating connection can be horizontal rotation or vertical flipping, allowing connecting component 3 to move relative to mounting component 4 and adjust its relative position. In actual use, the entire device is moved to the bedside using the casters 2, and then mounting component 4 is moved so that the first container 5 can be closer to the patient, making drainage operations easier for doctors or nurses. Compared to existing medical trolleys, the base 1 can be made smaller while maintaining stability, taking up less space and applicable to more scenarios, making it more convenient to use. The first container 5 is directly mounted on mounting component 4, facilitating its movement and maintaining its stability, preventing tipping. Furthermore, the casters 2 are silent omnidirectional wheels with braking function.

[0039] The beneficial effects of this embodiment are: the mounting part 4 and the connecting part 3 are movably connected, so that the first container 5 can move relative to the base 1, and the first container 5 can be moved to a more suitable position for collecting drainage fluid, avoiding the need for doctors or nurses to hold the container to collect it, which is more convenient and less labor-intensive to use.

[0040] Example 2

[0041] The difference between Example 1 and Example 2 is as follows:

[0042] like Figure 1-2 As shown, it also includes a second container 6 mounted on the mounting component 4. The first container 5 is disposed on the second container 6 and thus indirectly mounted on the mounting component 4. The first container 5 and the second container 6 are detachably connected. Figure 1-3As shown, the first container 5 includes a base plate 501 detachably connected to the second container 6 and a container 502 rotatably connected to the base plate 501 for holding drainage fluid. Both the base plate 501 and the container 502 are provided with a first through hole 503 and a second through hole 504. When the container 502 rotates to a set angle range, the first through hole 503 and the second through hole 504 intersect each other to maintain a seal. Figure 4 As shown, the base plate 501 is threadedly connected to the container 502. When the container 502 is tightened, the first through hole 503 and the second through hole 504 are interlocked. The base plate 501 is threadedly connected to the second container 6. The second container 6 has a protrusion 601 inside. The base plate 501 has a groove 505 that mates with the protrusion 601. When the base plate 501 is screwed to the set position, the protrusion 601 is engaged in the groove 505.

[0043] The second container 6 is used to hold the drainage fluid collected by the first container 5, which can be understood as a waste liquid temporary storage tank. The first container 5 and the second container 6 are detachable. After the drainage operation of the first container 5 is completed, the first container 5 is removed and the drainage fluid is poured into the second container 6. This allows the drainage fluid to be treated in a timely manner, reducing the chance of infection. When continuous drainage operations are required, the second container 6 can also temporarily hold the drainage fluid from each operation for convenient treatment and improved work efficiency. The base plate 501 is rotatably connected to the container 502. The base plate 501 has a first through hole 503, and the container 502 has a second through hole 504. The base plate 501 blocks the second through hole 504, sealing the bottom of the container 502 to hold the drainage fluid. When the container 502 rotates to a set angle range, the first through hole 503 and the second through hole 504 intersect, and the base plate 501 blocks the second through hole 504. When the container 502 rotates until the second through hole 504 connects with the first through hole 503, the liquid in the container 502 flows directly into the second container 6, facilitating the handling of the drainage fluid and eliminating the need for pouring, making it more convenient. Specifically, the angle range is determined by… The distance between adjacent first through holes 503 is determined by the angle range and number of first through holes 503. The angle range of the second through hole 504 during sealing is the same as the angle range of the first through hole 504 during sealing. One or more first through holes 503 can be provided. When only one first through hole 503 is provided, its angle range is less than 180 degrees. To ensure sealing, the angle range of the first through hole 503 needs to be further reduced, such as less than 175 degrees or 170 degrees. Assuming that the angle of the first through hole 503 is 170 degrees, that is, the first through hole 503 is located in the range of 0-170 degrees, the second through hole 504 during sealing is located in the range of 170-360 degrees. The same principle applies when multiple first through holes 503 are provided. The base plate 501 is threadedly connected to the container 502, and when the container 502 is tightened, the first through hole 503 and the second through hole 504 are staggered, thereby improving the sealing performance between the base plate 501 and the container 502. When cleaning the base plate 501 and the container 502, they can also be completely unscrewed for easy cleaning. The base plate 501 is threadedly connected to the second container 6 for easy disassembly. At the same time, when the container 502 rotates relative to the base plate 501, the base plate 501 needs to remain fixed. Therefore, a protrusion 601 is provided in the second container 6, and a groove 505 is provided on the base plate 501. When the base plate 501 is tightened, the protrusion 601 is engaged in the groove 505, keeping the base plate 501 fixed.

[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, there are four of each of the first through hole 503 and the second through hole 504.

[0045] The remaining features and working principles of this embodiment are the same as those of Embodiment 1.

[0046] Example 3

[0047] Based on Example 1 or Example 2, Example 1 or Example 2 are further defined, with the following differences:

[0048] like Figure 1 As shown, it also includes a processing unit and a liquid level sensor 7 connected to the first container 5, with the processing unit and liquid level sensor 7 connected by signal. It also includes a display screen 8 connected to the first container 5, with the display screen 8 connected by signal to the processing unit. The second container 6 is connected to a handle 9. It also includes an indicator light 10 mounted on the base 1. The connecting member 3 is a lifting rod, and the mounting member 4 is a crank structure; one end of the mounting member 4 is rotatably connected to the connecting member 3, and the other end is connected to the first container 5.

[0049] A liquid level sensor 7 is installed to facilitate reading the level of the drainage fluid. The processing unit converts the liquid level data into volume for easy reading and operation. The liquid level sensor 7 has high accuracy, which also avoids the need to carry multiple measuring cups (the first container 5) of various volumes. Specifically, the liquid level sensor 7 is preferably an electronic liquid level sensor, such as a hydrostatic liquid level sensor 7, an LM liquid level sensor 7, or an optical liquid level sensor 7. A display screen 8 is connected to the processing unit to display the measurement data, making it convenient for doctors or nurses to read the data and reducing their workload by avoiding frequent bending over. Furthermore, a voice broadcaster is connected to the first container 5 and is connected to the liquid level sensor 7 to broadcast the measurement data. A handle 9 is provided for easy pushing of the entire device. An indicator light 10 can indicate the location of the base 1. In situations where the lighting in some rooms or corridors is insufficient in the early morning, the indicator light 10 can show the location of the base 1 to alert others and reduce the risk of the device being accidentally kicked. Specifically, the indicator light 10 has a separate switch. The connecting rod is set as a lifting rod, which can adjust the height of the first container 5 and make it more convenient to use. At the same time, the mounting part 4 is a crank structure and is rotatably connected to the connecting part 3. With the setting of the crank structure, when the mounting part 4 is rotated, the end of it near the first container 5 moves relative to the base 1, thereby driving the first container 5 to move.

[0050] In this embodiment, as Figure 1-2 As shown, the first container is connected to two liquid level sensors.

[0051] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the voice broadcaster is integrated into the display screen 8, and a gap is left between the display screen 8 and the first container 5 for sound output. The display screen 8 is a touch screen, which can adjust the volume of the voice broadcaster.

[0052] The remaining working principles and processes of this embodiment are the same as those of Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2.

[0053] In the specific implementation of the above embodiments, the technical features can be combined in any non-contradictory way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the above technical features are described. However, as long as the combination of these technical features is not contradictory, it should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0054] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating this utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
