Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a medicine application technology, specifically a self-operated medicine application device. Background Technology
[0002] It is common for back injuries to require medication, such as bedsores, burns, cuts, and so on.
[0003] Normally, you would find a large mirror, face your back to the mirror, and observe the condition of your back through the reflection so that you can apply the medication more accurately; or you could ask a family member or friend to help you apply the medication to ensure that it is evenly applied to the affected area.
[0004] While applying medication independently without assistance from others can be aided by mirror reflection, the wide angle of view prevents it from being applied completely and accurately. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an autonomous medicine application device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: An autonomous medicine applicator includes a retractable handle assembly and an image transmission module connected to one end of the handle assembly via a snake tube; A camera is installed on the image transmission module, and the camera communicates with the image transmission module; an application head can also be detachably installed on the image transmission module. The application head includes a housing detachably connected to the image transmission module and a wiping component connected to the housing via a flexible snap-fit structure.
[0007] The autonomous medicine applicator as described above: the handle assembly includes a main handle and a telescopic handle that extends and retracts from one end of the main handle; one end of the snake tube is connected to the end of the telescopic handle that extends from the main handle, and the other end is connected to the image transmission module.
[0008] The self-applying medicine device as described above: the wiping element is fitted into the retainer, a ring is formed at the top center of the retainer, and a protruding post is integrally formed on the upper outer circumference of the ring, the protruding post being arranged radially along the ring; The outer casing has a connecting tube inside, and a spring is installed inside the connecting tube. The upper part of the spring is bonded and fixed to the inner wall of the outer casing, and the lower part of the spring passes through the ring and abuts against the bottom wall of the ring. A retaining channel is formed around the lower edge of the connecting tube. The retaining channel cooperates with the protrusion and maintains the retainer and the connecting tube in an elastic and detachable snap-fit under the action of the spring.
[0009] The self-application device described above: the wiping element is made of sponge material, the retainer has two hollowed-out grooves around its circumference, and the upper outer periphery of the wiping element is embedded in the grooves and protrudes from the grooves; The outer casing contains a storage sponge, and the wiping element protrudes from the groove and fits against the storage sponge.
[0010] As described above, the self-applying medicine device has a stop strip integrally formed on the inner sidewall of the outer shell. The stop strip is located above the storage sponge and is attached to the upper surface of the storage sponge, while the lower surface of the storage sponge is attached to the inner bottom wall of the outer shell.
[0011] The self-application device as described above: the wiping element is made of soft plastic, rubber or resin material, and the soft wiping element is detachably embedded in the holder.
[0012] As described above, the self-applying medicine device has the following features: the end of the channel forms a limiting end along the central axis of the connecting tube, and one side of the channel forms an arc-shaped inner guide wall with one end of the inner guide wall being the arc-shaped high point and the other end being the arc-shaped low point. The arc-shaped low point is smoothly connected to the outer guide wall, and the arc-shaped high point is directly above the limiting end. The inner guide wall and outer guide wall of two adjacent guide channels are connected.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the retractable handle assembly allows the snake tube, image transmission module, camera, and medication application head to change length, making it convenient for patients to adjust the length independently to apply medication or disinfect and clean the back wound at different locations.
[0014] The flexible, bendable tube allows the application head to adapt to different angles and orientations. A camera captures images, which are then transmitted to the patient's field of vision via an image transmission module, enabling autonomous back medication application and cleaning. The elastic snap-fit structure not only makes the detachable connection between the wiping device and the outer shell more flexible but also provides a soft connection, effectively mitigating the risk of secondary damage to the wound caused by excessive wiping force.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0024] Please see Figures 1-7 As an embodiment of this utility model, the autonomous medicine applicator includes a retractable handle assembly and an image transmission module 4 connected to one end of the handle assembly via a snake tube 3. A camera 5 is installed on the image transmission module 4, and the camera 5 communicates with the image transmission module 4; an application head 6 can also be detachably installed on the image transmission module 4. The application head 6 includes a housing 601 detachably connected to the image transmission module 4 and a wiping component 602 connected to the housing 601 via an elastic snap-fit structure.
[0025] In this embodiment, the retractable handle assembly allows the snake tube 3, image transmission module 4, camera 5, and medication application head 6 to change length, making it convenient for patients to adjust the length independently to apply medication or disinfect and clean the back wound at different locations.
[0026] The snake tube 3, which can be bent and deformed at will under external force, allows the application head 6 to cope with different orientations and angles. With the help of the camera 5, the image is captured and transmitted to the patient's field of vision through the image transmission module 4, thereby realizing the function of autonomous back medication and cleaning.
[0027] The flexible snap-fit structure not only makes the detachable connection between the wiping component 602 and the outer shell 601 more flexible, but also realizes a soft connection between the wiping component 602 and the outer shell 601, effectively reducing the risk of secondary damage to the wound caused by excessive wiping force due to improper wiping.
[0028] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the handle assembly includes a main handle 1 and a telescopic handle 2 that extends and retracts from one end of the main handle 1; one end of the snake tube 3 is connected to the end of the telescopic handle 2 that extends from the main handle 1, and the other end is connected to the image transmission module 4.
[0029] In this embodiment, the wiping length or height can be adjusted by the cooperation between the main handle 1 and the telescopic handle 2, and the length of the entire wiping device can be reduced when not in use for easy carrying and storage.
[0030] As a further embodiment of the present invention, the wiping member 602 is fitted into the retainer 605, and a ring is formed at the top center of the retainer 605. A protruding post 606 is integrally formed on the upper outer circumference of the ring, and the protruding post 606 is arranged radially along the ring. A connecting tube 607 is formed inside the outer shell 601. A spring 604 is provided inside the connecting tube 607. The upper part of the spring 604 is bonded and fixed to the inner wall of the outer shell 601. The lower part of the spring 604 passes through the ring and abuts against the bottom wall of the ring. A retaining channel 6071 is formed around the lower edge of the connecting tube 607. The retaining channel 6071 cooperates with the protrusion 606 and maintains the retainer 605 and the connecting tube 607 in an elastic and detachable snap-fit connection under the action of the spring 604.
[0031] In this embodiment, the locking track 6071 and the protrusion 606 cooperate with each other and are quickly connected to the retainer 605 and the connecting tube 607 under the action of the spring 604, thereby connecting the wiping member 602 to the housing 601. Compared with the conventional interference-fit detachable connection, it is more flexible and will not cause wear on the wiping member 602 or difficulty in assembly and disassembly.
[0032] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the wiping member 602 is made of sponge material, and the retainer 605 has two hollowed-out grooves in its circumference. The upper outer periphery of the wiping member 602 is embedded in the grooves and protrudes from the grooves. The outer casing 601 is provided with a storage sponge 603, and the wiping member 602 protrudes from the groove and is in contact with the storage sponge 603.
[0033] In this embodiment, since the wiping member 602 protrudes from the channel and adheres to the storage sponge 603, when the wiping member 602, made of sponge material, absorbs wiping liquid or disinfectant, the wiping liquid and disinfectant can pass through the channel and be absorbed by the storage sponge 603, increasing the amount of wiping liquid or disinfectant absorbed in a single application. Compared to the case without the storage sponge 603, relying solely on the absorption capacity of the wiping member 602 made of sponge material requires relatively frequent application of disinfectant or wiping liquid.
[0034] As a further improvement of this utility model, in order to prevent the storage sponge 603 from moving upwards during the installation of the wiping component 602 and the retainer 605, thus preventing the portion of the wiping component 602 protruding from the groove from adhering to the storage sponge 603, this utility model adopts the following design: A stop strip 608 is integrally formed on the inner sidewall of the outer shell 601. The stop strip 608 is located on the upper part of the storage sponge 603 and is attached to the upper surface of the storage sponge 603, while the lower surface of the storage sponge 603 is attached to the inner bottom wall of the outer shell 601.
[0035] In this embodiment, the stop bar 608 and the inner bottom of the outer shell 601 cooperate with each other to restrict the displacement of the storage sponge 603, ensuring that when the sponge wiping member 602 is tightened in the retainer 605 and protrudes from the groove, it can fit with the storage sponge 603 to guide the wiping liquid or disinfectant.
[0036] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the wiping member 602 is made of soft plastic, rubber or resin material, and the soft wiping member 602 is detachably embedded in the retainer 605.
[0037] In this embodiment, since soft plastics, rubbers, and resins do not have adsorption capacity, when the medicine is applied to the wiping device 602, the medicine can be applied to the wound surface without adsorption, thus avoiding waste of medicine.
[0038] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the end of the guide 6071 forms a limiting end 6072 along the central axis of the connecting pipe 607, and an arc-shaped inner guide wall 6073 is formed on one side of the guide 6071. One end of the inner guide wall 6073 is an arc-shaped high point, and the other end of the inner guide wall 6073 is an arc-shaped low point. The arc-shaped low point is smoothly connected to the outer guide wall 6074, and the arc-shaped high point is directly above the limiting end 6072. The inner guide wall 6073 and the outer guide wall 6074 of the two adjacent guide channels 6071 are connected.
[0039] The overall installation principle is explained below in conjunction with all the features of this utility model: When it is necessary to assemble the wiping component 602 onto the housing 601, the type of wiping component 602 is first selected according to the requirements. It can be a sponge-made wiping component 602, or a soft plastic, rubber, or resin-made wiping component 602. The wiping element 602 is then tightly fitted onto the retainer 605, and the retainer 605 is then inserted into the housing 601. During the insertion process, the protrusion 606 has two possibilities: In the first possibility, the protrusion 606 first contacts the outer guide wall 6074. Under the action of the insertion thrust, the protrusion 606 will drive the retainer 605 to rotate and slide along the outer guide wall 6074 into the current track 6071, or transition along the outer guide wall 6074 into the inner guide wall 6073 of the next track 6071. After the protrusion 606 slides into the current track 6071 along the outer guide wall 6074, under the action of the insertion force, the protrusion 606 will fit against the inner guide wall 6073 in the current track 6071 until the protrusion 606 slides to... The arc-shaped high point of the guide 6071; during this process, the spring 604 is continuously compressed, and when the protrusion 606 reaches the arc-shaped high point, it can no longer be pushed forward; after that, the thrust is released, and since the arc-shaped high point is directly above the limiting end 6072, after the thrust is released, the elastic force of the spring 604 will drive the protrusion 606 to cooperate with the limiting end 6072; it should be noted that during the application process, although the protrusion 606 may move from the limiting end 6072 towards the arc-shaped high point, it will still return to the limiting end 6072 after the application pressure is released.
[0040] The second possibility is that the protrusion 606 directly enters the current channel 6071, and then the protrusion 606 is in the inner guide wall 6073 of the current channel 6071.
[0041] The above embodiments are exemplary and not restrictive. Therefore, without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of this utility model, any technical solutions that can be implemented in other specific forms are included in this utility model.
