Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of medical waste liquid collection and treatment, and particularly relates to a starting method of a waste liquid collection device, a consumable box identification device and the waste liquid collection device. BACKGROUND

[0002] During the implementation of a specific surgical procedure, it is inevitable to produce waste liquid of types such as liquid, semi-solid and solid, which specifically includes human fluids such as blood, and perfusion solutions introduced to the surgical site during the surgical procedure, and in addition, solid and semi-solid waste liquid produced during the surgical procedure, including tissue fragments and small pieces of surgical material that can be left in the human body site. Ideally, the waste liquid is collected as soon as it is produced, so as not to contaminate or pollute the surgical site, nor become a biological hazard in the operating room or other site where the surgical procedure is implemented.

[0003] In the prior art, there are various waste liquid collection and treatment systems available to medical personnel to collect waste liquid produced during a surgical procedure, before or after the implementation of the surgical procedure. The principle is mainly to generate suction force by a vacuum source to suck the waste liquid produced at the surgical site into a specific collection container. That is, after the system is started, the suction force generated by the vacuum source reaches the surgical site, so as to suck the waste liquid into the specific collection container through the pipeline in contact with the surgical site.

[0004] Since many surgeries will produce bone fragments and other tissue materials, if these tissue materials directly enter the waste liquid collection device, when the waste liquid collection device is emptied and cleaned at the drainage station, these tissue materials will enter the connecting joint, causing the joint to be blocked. Therefore, in the prior art, a consumable box is installed on the waste liquid collection device, and before the waste material enters the waste liquid collection container of the waste liquid collection device, the waste liquid is filtered by the consumable box, and the tissue material is intercepted in the consumable box, and after use, the consumable box is treated and discarded together, so as to avoid the tissue material from entering the waste liquid collection container, and to avoid affecting the subsequent treatment.

[0005] In view of this, the consumable box is used in large quantities, in order to prevent the use of waste consumable box or other inferior consumable box, the prior art provides a kind of technology that can identify consumable box.If Syk company produces a kind of Neptune waste liquid collection and processing system, its waste liquid collection equipment is provided with RFID reading device, and RFID tag is pasted on consumable box, waste liquid collection equipment can judge whether consumable box is usable consumable box by RFID tag;When the RFID tag on the new consumable box is read, the consumable box cannot be used again.But, the problem of this product is that the reading device of RFID is set to a certain reading distance, when RFID enters the reading distance, the RFID tag on consumable box is read by waste liquid collection equipment, often cause consumable box just close to equipment but not installed in place, RFID tag has been read by equipment, if there is misoperation when installing consumable box or operation time is too long, because RFID is read, make consumable box not installed in place when it is identified as used consumable box and cannot continue to be used, bring great inconvenience and trouble to user, at the same time make new consumable box cannot be used, cause great waste.

[0027] In order to make the object, technical scheme and advantages of the application more clear, the application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0028] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A first embodiment flowchart of a starting method of the waste liquid collecting device of the application is shown, comprising:

[0029] S101, detecting in real time whether a consumable box has been installed on the consumable box installation base of the waste liquid collecting device;

[0030] It should be noted that the waste liquid collecting device is provided with a consumable box installation base, and the consumable box can be stably fixed on the waste liquid collecting device through the consumable box installation base; at the same time, the waste liquid collecting device is also provided with a consumable box detection device.

[0031] In operation, the consumable box detection device detects the in-place signal on the consumable box installation base in real time, and when the operator does not insert the consumable box on the consumable box installation base, the consumable box detection device cannot detect the in-place signal, and when the operator inserts the consumable box on the consumable box installation base, the consumable box detection device can detect the in-place signal in real time and send the in-place signal to the consumable box identification device for subsequent processing by the consumable box identification device.

[0032] Specifically, the step of detecting in real time whether a consumable box has been installed on the consumable box installation base of the waste liquid collecting device by the consumable box identification device comprises:

[0033] (1) judging whether the real-time position of the consumable box reaches the target position;

[0034] The method for judging whether the real-time position of the consumable box reaches the target position is that when the in-place signal sent by the consumable box detection device is acquired, it indicates that the real-time position of the consumable box has reached the target position; and when the in-place signal sent by the consumable box detection device is not acquired, it indicates that the real-time position of the consumable box has not reached the target position.

[0035] (2) if yes, it indicates that the consumable box has been installed on the consumable box installation base;

[0036] That is to say, when the in-place signal is acquired, it indicates that the consumable box has been installed on the consumable box installation base.

[0037] (3) if no, it indicates that the consumable box has not been installed on the consumable box installation base.

[0038] That is to say, when the in-place signal is not acquired, it indicates that the consumable box has not been installed on the consumable box installation base.

[0039] Therefore, by combining the consumable box detection device with the consumable box identification device, it can be accurately judged whether the consumable box has been successfully inserted into the consumable box installation base.

[0040] S102, when it is detected that the consumable box is installed on the consumable box mounting base, reading the accessory information of the consumable box, and judging whether the consumable box is available according to the accessory information;

[0041] It should be noted that the waste liquid collecting device is provided with a data reading device, and the consumable box is provided with an identification tag for recording the accessory information; preferably, the identification tag is an RFID tag, but is not limited thereto as long as the accessory information can be recorded.

[0042] When it is detected that the consumable box is installed on the consumable box mounting base, the consumable box recognition device drives the data reading device to read the accessory information in the identification tag, and feeds back the accessory information to the consumable box recognition device for subsequent processing by the consumable box recognition device.

[0043] Specifically, the step of judging whether the consumable box is available according to the accessory information comprises:

[0044] (1) comparing the accessory information with a preset consumable box database to judge whether the consumable box database contains the accessory information;

[0045] (2) if yes, it indicates that the consumable box is an unusable consumable box;

[0046] Further, when it is judged that the consumable box is an unusable consumable box, a prompt information can be generated to inform the operator to replace the consumable box.

[0047] (3) if no, it indicates that the consumable box is an available consumable box.

[0048] It should be noted that the consumable box database stores the accessory information of unusable consumable boxes (i.e. used consumable boxes), so by comparing the accessory information with the preset consumable box database, it can be judged whether the currently read consumable box exists in the consumable box database, thereby determining whether the consumable box is an available consumable box. If the consumable box database does not store the currently read consumable box, it indicates that the current consumable box is a new consumable box and can be used normally.

[0049] S103, if yes, allowing the waste liquid collecting device to perform the suction operation;

[0050] S104, if no, generating an alarm signal.

[0051] It should be noted that when it is judged that the consumable box is available, the waste liquid collecting device can be allowed to perform the suction operation, thereby starting the waste liquid collecting device; when it is judged that the consumable box is not available, an alarm is triggered to prompt the operator, thereby avoiding misoperation.

[0052] Therefore, the application can identify whether the consumable box is inserted in place, so as to avoid the new consumable box from being wrongly identified and wasted, and can also identify whether the consumable box is a usable consumable box and warn the operator, so as to prevent the use of the discarded consumable box, and can further accurately control the waste liquid collecting device to perform the suction operation and realize the self-start of the waste liquid collecting device, which is more convenient to operate.

[0053] Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 2 The second embodiment flow chart of the starting method of the waste liquid collecting device is shown, which comprises:

[0054] S201, real-time detection is performed on whether the consumable box has been installed on the consumable box mounting base of the waste liquid collecting device;

[0055] S202, when it is detected that the consumable box has been installed on the consumable box mounting base, the accessory information of the consumable box is read, and whether the consumable box is usable is judged according to the accessory information;

[0056] S203, when the judgment is yes, the waste liquid collecting device is allowed to perform the suction operation, and the read accessory information of the consumable box is stored into the consumable box database;

[0057] It should be noted that when the consumable box is judged to be usable, the read accessory information of the consumable box needs to be stored into the consumable box database, so as to update the accessory information of the unusable consumable box (i.e. the used consumable box) stored in the consumable box database, and avoid the repeated use of the consumable box.

[0058] S204, when the judgment is no, an alarm signal is generated;

[0059] Referring to Figure 3 , Figure 3 The specific structure of the waste liquid collecting device 100 is shown, which comprises a device body 1, a consumable box mounting base 2, a consumable box detection device 3, a data reading device 4 and a consumable box identification device 5, and the consumable box mounting base 2, the consumable box detection device 3, the data reading device 4 and the consumable box identification device 5 are all arranged on the device body 1, wherein:

[0060] The consumable box mounting base 2 is used for mounting the consumable box 6, and the consumable box 6 is provided with an identification tag, and the identification tag is used for recording the accessory information; preferably, the identification tag is an RFID tag, but is not limited thereto, as long as the recording of the accessory information can be realized.

[0061] The detection end of the consumable box detection device 3 is located on the consumable box mounting base 2 and connected to the consumable box identification device 5. The consumable box detection device 3 is used to detect the arrival signal of the consumable box 6 and send the arrival signal to the consumable box identification device 5. Preferably, the consumable box detection device 3 can be a micro switch, magnetic switch, proximity switch or photoelectric switch, but it is not limited to these. It can be selected according to the actual situation and has high reliability.

[0062] The data reading device 4 is connected to the consumable box identification device 5 and is used to read the accessory information on the identification tag and send the accessory information to the consumable box identification device 5.

[0063] The consumable box identification device 5 is used to detect in real time whether the consumable box 6 has been installed on the consumable box mounting base 2 of the waste liquid collection equipment according to the arrival signal of the consumable box detection device 3, and to determine whether the consumable box 6 is usable according to the accessory information of the data reading device, thereby controlling the waste liquid collection equipment to perform a suction operation.

[0064] like Figure 4 As shown, the outer wall of the lower end pipe of the consumable box 6 is provided with a groove 61, and the inner wall of the groove 61 is a sloping structure.

[0065] like Figure 5 As shown, the consumable box mounting base 2 includes a base body 21, an interface tube 22, and at least one set of sliding components 23. Specifically, the base body 21 has a recessed platform, and the bottom of the recessed platform has a through hole. The interface tube 22 is embedded in the through hole and passes through the through hole, so that the outer wall of the interface tube 22 and the inner wall of the recessed platform form an annular groove 24. The base body 21 has at least one set of sliding grooves, one end of which passes through the side wall of the recessed platform and communicates with the annular groove 24. The sliding components 23 correspond one-to-one with the sliding grooves. The sliding components 23 are located in the corresponding sliding grooves and can move back and forth along the corresponding sliding grooves, so that the limiting end of the sliding components 23 extends into the annular groove 24 or retracts into the corresponding sliding groove. The limiting end of the sliding components 23 is provided with a first guide surface 3a facing the top surface of the recessed platform and a second guide surface 3b facing the bottom surface of the recessed platform. Both the first guide surface 3a and the second guide surface 3b can guide the sliding components 23 to move away from the annular groove 24 in the corresponding sliding groove under the action of external force. The thickness of the limiting end of the sliding component 23 gradually decreases along the direction of the annular groove 24 to form the first guide surface 3a and the second guide surface 3b. Preferably, the limiting end of the sliding component 23 is convex arc-shaped or "Λ"-shaped, but this is not a limitation, as long as it can cooperate with the groove 61 of the lower end pipeline of the consumable box to guide the guiding sliding component 23 to move away from the annular groove 24 in the corresponding sliding groove.

[0066] Therefore, the application sets the sliding assembly 23 on the consumable box mounting base, and designs the first guide surface 3a and the second guide surface 3b, so that the sliding assembly 23 forms a special moving path under the action of external force, to match the plugging action between the consumable box and the consumable box mounting base, so as to realize automatic locking of the consumable box and quick plugging of the consumable box, and the operation is convenient.

[0067] Specifically, the sliding assembly 23 comprises a positioning piece 231, an elastic piece 232 and a sliding piece 233, the positioning piece 231 is fixed in the corresponding sliding groove, one end of the elastic piece 232 is connected with the positioning piece 231, and the other end of the elastic piece 232 is connected with the sliding piece 233; the sliding piece 233 can move back and forth along the corresponding sliding groove to extend into the annular groove 24 or retract into the corresponding sliding groove under the action of external force and the elastic force of the elastic piece 232. Preferably, the elastic piece 232 can be a spring, but is not limited thereto, as long as it can realize elastic expansion and contraction, and has strong flexibility.

[0068] When the consumable box is not inserted, the sliding assemblies 23 on both sides are in the initial position of the sliding groove under the action of the elastic piece 232, and at this time, the limiting end of the sliding assembly 23 extends into the annular groove 24; when the consumable box needs to be inserted, the lower end pipeline of the consumable box can be directly inserted into the mounting base of the consumable box; at this time, the lower end pipeline acts on the first guide surface 3a of the limiting end, so that the first guide surface 3a guides the sliding assemblies 23 on both sides to move in the corresponding sliding groove in the direction away from the annular groove 24 under the action of external force (i.e., the sliding assemblies 23 on both sides slide to both sides, opening the annular groove 24), until the limiting end retracts into the corresponding sliding groove, so that the lower end pipeline of the consumable box is inserted into the annular groove 24; when the lower end pipeline of the consumable box is inserted, the lower end pipeline no longer acts on the first guide surface 3a, and at this time, the sliding assemblies 23 on both sides rebound under the action of the elastic piece 232, so that the limiting end of the sliding assembly 23 is clamped into the groove 1' of the lower end pipeline, thereby realizing automatic locking of the consumable box; when the consumable box needs to be taken out, a pulling force can be applied to the consumable box, so that the side wall of the groove 1' of the lower end pipeline acts on the second guide surface 3b, so that the second guide surface 3b guides the sliding assembly 23 to move in the corresponding sliding groove in the direction away from the annular groove 24 under the action of external force (i.e., the sliding assemblies 23 on both sides slide to both sides, opening the annular groove 24), at this time, the lower end pipeline is synchronously pulled out, realizing quick plugging of the consumable box.

[0069] Further, the sliding assembly 23 further comprises a limiting piece 234, and a limiting groove 25 corresponding to the limiting piece 234 is arranged in the sliding groove; one end of the limiting piece 234 is fixed to the outer side wall of the sliding piece 233, and the other end of the limiting piece 234 extends into the corresponding limiting groove 25, so that the limiting piece 234 can move back and forth along the corresponding limiting groove 25. Therefore, under the action of the limiting groove 25, the movement distance of the sliding assembly 23 can be effectively controlled, so as to avoid excessive stretching / compression of the elastic piece 232 in the sliding assembly 23, improve the user experience, and prolong the service life of the elastic piece 232.

[0070] Preferably, the positioning piece 231 is provided with a first blind hole, the sliding piece 233 is provided with a second blind hole, the first blind hole of the positioning piece 231 is arranged opposite to the second blind hole, and one end of the elastic piece 232 is arranged in the first blind hole and the other end of the elastic piece 232 is arranged in the second blind hole. Therefore, the elastic piece 232 can be effectively positioned through the first blind hole and the second blind hole, which is convenient to disassemble and assemble, and the stress is more uniform.

[0071] More preferably, the outer side wall of the sliding piece 233 is provided with a convex groove 235, the inner side wall of the sliding groove is provided with a concave groove, and the convex groove 235 of the sliding piece 233 is embedded in the corresponding concave groove of the sliding groove, so as to avoid the sliding piece 233 sliding up and down in the sliding groove, and ensure the stability of the sliding piece 233.

[0072] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 6 The consumable box identification device 5 comprises a first detection module 51, a second detection module 52, a driving module 53 and an alarm module 54, and specifically:

[0073] The first detection module 51 is used for detecting whether the consumable box 6 has been installed on the consumable box installation base 2 of the waste liquid collecting device in real time;

[0074] The second detection module 52 is used for reading the accessory information of the consumable box 6 when the detection module 51 detects that the consumable box 6 has been installed on the consumable box installation base 2, and judging whether the consumable box 6 is available according to the accessory information;

[0075] The driving module 53 is used for allowing the waste liquid collecting device to perform the suction operation when the second detection module 52 judges that the consumable box 6 is available,

[0076] The alarm module 54 is used for generating an alarm signal when the second detection module 52 judges that the consumable box 6 is not available.

[0077] In operation, the consumable box detection device 3 detects the in-place signal on the consumable box mounting base 2 in real time. When the operator does not insert the consumable box 6 on the consumable box mounting base 2, the consumable box detection device 3 cannot detect the in-place signal. When the operator inserts the consumable box 6 on the consumable box mounting base 2, the consumable box detection device 3 can detect the in-place signal in real time and send the in-place signal to the consumable box identification device 5. The first detection module 51 of the consumable box identification device 5 detects whether the consumable box 6 has been installed on the consumable box mounting base 2 of the waste liquid collecting device in real time according to the in-place signal. When it is detected that the consumable box 6 has been installed on the consumable box mounting base 2, the second detection module 52 of the consumable box identification device 5 drives the data reading device 4 to read the accessory information in the identification tag. Then, the data reading device 4 feeds back the accessory information to the second detection module 52 of the consumable box identification device 5, so that the second detection module 52 judges whether the consumable box 6 is available according to the accessory information. When the second detection module 52 judges that the consumable box 6 is available, the driving module 53 allows the waste liquid collecting device to perform the suction operation. When the second detection module 52 judges that the consumable box 6 is not available, the alarm module 54 generates an alarm signal.

[0078] Further, the first detection module 51 comprises a position judging unit. The position judging unit is used to judge whether the real-time position of the consumable box 6 reaches the target position. When it is judged that the real-time position of the consumable box 6 reaches the target position, it means that the consumable box 6 has been installed on the consumable box mounting base 2. When it is judged that the real-time position of the consumable box 6 does not reach the target position, it means that the consumable box 6 has not been installed on the consumable box mounting base 2. The method for judging whether the real-time position of the consumable box 6 reaches the target position is as follows: when the in-place signal sent by the consumable box detection device 3 is acquired, it means that the real-time position of the consumable box 6 reaches the target position, i.e. the consumable box 6 has been installed on the consumable box mounting base 2. When the in-place signal sent by the consumable box detection device 3 is not acquired, it means that the real-time position of the consumable box 6 does not reach the target position, i.e. the consumable box 6 has not been installed on the consumable box mounting base 2.

[0079] Therefore, by combining the consumable box detection device 3 with the consumable box identification device 5, it can be accurately judged whether the consumable box 6 has been successfully inserted on the consumable box mounting base 2.

[0080] Correspondingly, the second detection module 52 comprises a reading unit and a comparison unit, specifically:

[0081] The reading unit is used to read the accessory information of the consumable box 6.

[0082] The comparison unit is configured to compare the accessory information with a preset consumable cartridge database to determine whether the consumable cartridge database contains the accessory information. When it is determined that the consumable cartridge database contains the accessory information, it indicates that the consumable cartridge 6 is an unusable consumable cartridge. When it is determined that the consumable cartridge database does not contain the accessory information, it indicates that the consumable cartridge 6 is a usable consumable cartridge.

[0083] It should be noted that the consumable cartridge database stores accessory information of unusable consumable cartridges 6 (i.e., used consumable cartridges). Therefore, by comparing the accessory information with the preset consumable cartridge database, it can be determined whether the currently read consumable cartridge 6 exists in the consumable cartridge database, thereby determining whether the consumable cartridge 6 is a usable consumable cartridge. If the consumable cartridge database does not store the currently read consumable cartridge 6, it indicates that the current consumable cartridge 6 is a new consumable cartridge and can be used normally. Meanwhile, when it is determined that the consumable cartridge 6 is usable, the waste liquid collecting device can be allowed to perform the suction operation, thereby enabling the waste liquid collecting device. When it is determined that the consumable cartridge is unusable, an alarm is triggered to prompt the operator, thereby avoiding misoperation.

[0084] Further, when it is determined that the consumable cartridge 6 is an unusable consumable cartridge, a prompt information can be generated to inform the operator to replace the consumable cartridge.

[0085] Preferably, the consumable cartridge identification device 5 further comprises a storage module configured to store the accessory information of the read consumable cartridge 6 into the consumable cartridge database. It should be noted that when it is determined that the consumable cartridge 6 is usable, the accessory information of the read consumable cartridge 6 needs to be stored into the consumable cartridge database to update the accessory information of the unusable consumable cartridge (i.e., the used consumable cartridge) stored in the consumable cartridge database, thereby avoiding the consumable cartridge from being reused.

[0086] Therefore, by the present application, it can be determined whether the consumable cartridge 6 is inserted in place, thereby avoiding the new consumable cartridge 6 from being misidentified to cause waste. It can also be determined whether the consumable cartridge 6 is a usable consumable cartridge and warn the operator, thereby preventing the use of the discarded consumable cartridge 6. Further, the waste liquid collecting device can be accurately controlled to perform the suction operation, thereby enabling the waste liquid collecting device and making the operation more convenient.

[0087] The above describes the preferred embodiments of the present application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several improvements and refinements without departing from the principles of the present application, and these improvements and refinements are also considered to be within the protection scope of the present application.
