DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The technical solution of the present invention is further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 6As shown in the figure, in a specific embodiment of the present invention, a nasal probe for health system management is disclosed, which includes a handle 100. An end cap 200 is installed on the outer side of the head end of the handle 100, and a glass sheet 300 is embedded in the middle of the end cap 200; a ferrule 400 is installed on the inner side of the head end of the handle 100, and the ferrule 400 is used for clamping and installing a camera 500, and the connecting wire of the camera 500 extends out from the tail end of the handle 100; a reflector 600 is provided on the inner side of the head end of the handle 100, and the reflector 600 is clamped between the end cap 200 and the ferrule 400 and reflects and diffuses the light of the camera 500 outward.

[0027] The above-mentioned nasal probe for health system management has a novel structure, including a handle, an end cap, a ferrule, and a reflector that can be disassembled and assembled. It can stably clamp and install the camera, which is convenient for production and processing, and can facilitate the maintenance and replacement of the internal camera, reducing production and use costs; among them, the design of the reflector can better reflect and diffuse the light of the camera outward, providing a larger range of illumination for clear shooting and more accurate inspection; during actual use, the probe structure is connected to a hose, and the connecting wire of the camera extends out from the tail end of the handle and is connected to an external detection device along the hose; it should be noted that the camera has its own light source for illumination.

[0028] Furthermore, a wire hole 110 is provided in the middle of the handle 100, and the wire hole 110 runs through both ends of the handle 100. The wire hole 110 has a counterbore 120 at the head end of the handle 100, and the diameter of the counterbore 120 is larger than that of the wire hole 110; the ferrule 400 is fixedly installed at the counterbore 120 through screws, and the clamping tube 410 of the ferrule 400 extends into the wire hole 110. The ferrule is fixed by screws, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly to release the clamping of the camera; the outer wall of the camera 500 is in a columnar structure and its diameter is adapted to the inner diameter of the clamping tube 410; a limiting ring 130 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the wire hole 110, and the inner diameter of the limiting ring 130 is smaller than the diameter of the camera 500. One end of the camera 500 extends into the clamping tube 410, and the other end abuts against the limiting ring 130 to form a clamping and fixing; with this structural design, by removing the ferrule, the clamping of one end of the camera can be released, and thus the camera can be removed, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly.

[0029] Further, the ferrule 400 includes a circular support plate 420. The clamping pipe 410 is fixedly arranged in the middle of one end face of the support plate 420. The support plate 420 is provided with a through hole 430 corresponding to the clamping pipe 410. The diameter of the through hole 430 is smaller than the inner diameter of the clamping pipe 410, forming a stepped surface. The support plate 420 is fixed to the groove wall of the counterbore 120 by screws. The outer part of the camera 500 is in a columnar structure, and the outer wall of the head end is provided with a narrowed section. The outer diameter of the narrowed section is adapted to the diameter of the through hole 430. The outer wall diameter of the camera 500 is adapted to the inner diameter of the clamping pipe 410. The head of the camera 500 extends into the clamping pipe 410 and is clamped and abutted. It is convenient for the installation and alignment of the camera, and can effectively clamp the probe end of the camera, provide stable support, and prevent the camera from loosening. A clamping groove 131 is provided at the end face of the limit ring 130 close to the ferrule 400. The diameter of the clamping groove 131 is larger than the inner diameter of the limit ring 130. The bottom diameter of the clamping groove 131 is adapted to the tail end diameter of the camera 500. The setting of the limit ring can facilitate the passing of the connecting wire, and can also be adapted to the tail end of the camera for limiting, and can also facilitate the alignment and installation. Moreover, the port of the clamping groove far from the center of the limit ring is in an outwardly expanding structure, which can facilitate the smooth insertion of the tail end of the camera into the clamping groove.

[0030] Further, at least two countersunk holes 440 are provided on the support plate 420. The countersunk holes 440 are arranged in a circumferential array around the axis of the clamping pipe 410. A plurality of threaded holes are correspondingly provided at the bottom of the counterbore 120. The support plate 420 is fixed to the bottom of the counterbore 120 by countersunk head screws. It can prevent the screws used to fix the support plate from protruding from the wall surface of the support plate and prevent affecting the installation of the reflector.

[0031] Further, the reflector 600 includes a support ring 610. The outer diameter of the support ring 610 is adapted to the inner diameter of the counterbore 120, and the outer wall of the support ring 610 abuts against the inner wall of the counterbore 120. The depth of the counterbore 120 is consistent with the sum of the thickness of the support ring 610 and the thickness of the support plate 420. One end face of the support ring 610 abuts against the support plate 420. The inner diameter of the support ring 610 increases in the direction away from the support plate 420, forming an outwardly expanding shape. The inner diameter of the support ring 610 close to the support plate 420 is larger than the diameter of the through hole 430. A reflector 620 is fixedly arranged on the inner ring wall of the support ring 610. The reflector 620 is adapted to the shape of the inner ring wall of the support ring 610. It can increase the reflection area, better transmit the light to the outside, and perform effective lighting.

[0032] Further, the thickness of the countersunk head of the countersunk screw is less than the depth of the countersunk hole 440. A plurality of magnet blocks 630 are fixedly provided on the wall surface of the reflector 600 close to the support plate 420. The positions of the magnet blocks 630 correspond to the positions of the countersunk holes 440 and are adapted in shape. When the reflector 600 abuts against the support plate 420, the magnet blocks 630 extend into the countersunk holes 440 and abut against and magnetically attract the countersunk screws. This structural design can facilitate the alignment and installation of the reflector. By means of magnetic attraction, it can be quickly aligned. On the other hand, it can prevent the reflector from easily falling off during subsequent disassembly and assembly, avoiding damage to the falling-off of the reflector.

[0033] Further, a cavity 640 is provided inside the support ring 610. The cavity 640 is a closed-loop structure around the axis of the support ring 610, which can reduce the material used for the support ring and also reduce its mass.

[0034] Further, an external thread is provided on the outer wall of the head end of the handle 100, and an internal thread is provided on the inner wall of the end cap 200. The end cap 200 is in threaded connection and cooperation with the head end of the handle 100. This can facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the end cap and is convenient for use and operation.

[0035] Further, arc angles are provided at the outer wall edges of the end cap 200 and the outer wall edges of the handle 100, and the connection between the end cap 200 and the handle 100 has a smooth transition. Since the probe structure enters the human body, this structural design can effectively prevent scratching of the nasal mucosa and improve the safety of use.

[0036] The present invention is described by way of preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art will know that various changes or equivalent replacements can be made to these features and embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. The present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed herein, and other embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.
