Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of diarrhea protection, and in particular to a diarrhea protection device. Background Art

[0002] Diarrhea, commonly known as "loose stool," is a common symptom characterized by significantly more frequent bowel movements than usual, with loose stools, increased water content, and daily stool volume exceeding 200g, or containing undigested food, pus, blood, or mucus. Diarrhea is often accompanied by symptoms such as urgency, anal discomfort, and incontinence. Diarrhea can be caused by a variety of factors, including dietary issues and medication side effects, such as breast cancer patients taking pyrotinib. To prevent diarrhea, maintaining abdominal warmth can be helpful.

[0003] Abdominal heating belts are a commonly used thermal insulation device. They heat the belt by heating wire, thereby keeping the abdomen warm. These belts are typically manually activated after being attached and manually deactivated after being removed. However, these belts often retain residual heat, leading patients to forget to turn them on and off. Alternatively, patients may forget to turn them off when removing them, such as in a rush to use the restroom, resulting in wasted power. Furthermore, these belts are difficult to turn on and off depending on the attachment state. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention proposes a diarrhea protection device to solve the technical problem mentioned in the above background technology that the existing abdominal insulation belt is difficult to open and close according to the binding state of the insulation belt.

[0005] In order to solve this technical problem, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0006] A diarrhea protection device comprises a heat preservation belt, a heating wire, a switch assembly and a locking mechanism;

[0007] A lifting groove and a plurality of threaded holes are provided on one end of the heat preservation belt. The switch assembly is arranged in the lifting groove in a liftable manner and has elasticity. The heating wire is arranged in the heat preservation belt and is switched on and off by the switch assembly.

[0008] The other end of the heat preservation belt is rotatably provided with a locking mechanism, which can be screwed to any of the threaded holes and pass through the threaded holes to press the switch assembly toward the bottom surface of the lifting groove, so that the switch assembly starts the heating wire.

[0009] Furthermore, a driving block and a transmission mechanism are provided; there are multiple heating wires, which are independent of each other, and the switch assembly corresponds to the heating wires one by one; a sliding groove is also provided on one side of the lifting groove, and the driving block corresponds to the switch assembly one by one and can be slidably arranged in the sliding groove, and the driving block can slide toward the switch assembly and squeeze the switch assembly toward the bottom surface of the lifting groove; the transmission mechanism is rotatably arranged in the sliding groove, and can drive the driving block to slide toward the switch assembly in turn, and maintain the abutment state of the driving block after sliding; when the locking mechanism is screwed to any of the threaded holes, it can drive the transmission mechanism to rotate.

[0010] Furthermore, the switch assembly includes a tact switch, a pressure plate and a support spring; the tact switch is connected to the corresponding heating wire, the pressure plate is slidably connected in the lifting groove, and is connected to the bottom surface of the lifting groove through the support spring; the pressure plate is provided with an inclined surface close to the sliding groove, and the driving block can squeeze the inclined surface of the pressure plate to make the pressure plate slide toward the tact switch.

[0011] Furthermore, the transmission mechanism includes a rack and a transmission assembly; the rack is slidably connected in the slide groove, and the driving block is provided with an inclined surface on the side close to the rack, and the sliding of the rack can squeeze the inclined surface of the driving block in sequence; the transmission assembly is provided with multiple groups, and corresponds one-to-one to the threaded holes. When the locking mechanism is threadedly connected to any of the threaded holes, it can drive the transmission assembly to rotate, and the rotation of the transmission assembly can drive the sliding of the rack.

[0012] Furthermore, the transmission assembly includes a gear and a transmission rotating rod; the gear is rotatably connected in the slide groove and engages with the rack, one end of the transmission rotating rod is coaxially fixed on the gear, and the other end extends outward through the slide groove, and when the locking mechanism is threadedly connected to any of the threaded holes, it can drive the corresponding transmission rotating rod to rotate.

[0013] Furthermore, the locking mechanism includes a locking assembly and a driven gear ring; the locking assembly can be rotatably passed through the end of the insulation belt away from the threaded hole and can be screwed to the threaded hole; the driven gear ring can be rotatably provided on the end of the insulation belt close to the locking assembly, and the rotation of the locking assembly can drive the driven gear ring to rotate. When the locking assembly is screwed to the threaded hole, the driven gear ring is connected to the transmission rotating rod through a spline.

[0014] Furthermore, the locking assembly includes a driving gear ring and a driving rotating rod; the driving gear ring is rotatably connected to the insulation belt and engages with the driven gear ring; the driving rotating rod is coaxially splined to the driving gear ring and is rotatably passed through the insulation belt, and the bottom end of the driving rotating rod is provided with a thread corresponding to the threaded hole.

[0016] Compared with the existing similarities, the progress of this application is:

[0017] Multiple threaded holes are provided, and a locking mechanism can be screwed into any of them, allowing for different binding lengths to accommodate patients of varying body shapes. When any of the threaded holes is screwed into place, the switch assembly is squeezed, energizing the heating wire connected to it to generate heat. When the threaded connection is released, the switch assembly returns to its original shape due to its elasticity, de-energizing the heating wire and stopping heat generation. This allows the device to be powered on when attached to a patient and de-energized when removed from the patient. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0031] The following embodiments of the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention and are therefore only examples and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Please also refer to Figure 1-Figure 5 This embodiment provides a diarrhea protection device, including a heat preservation belt 1, a heating wire 2, a switch assembly 3 and a locking mechanism 4.

[0033] A lifting groove 11 and multiple threaded holes are provided on one end of the insulation belt 1. The switch component 3 is liftably arranged in the lifting groove 11 and has elasticity. The heating wire 2 is arranged in the insulation belt 1 and is switched by the switch component 3.

[0034] The other end of the heat preservation belt 1 is rotatably provided with a locking mechanism 4, which can be screwed to any threaded hole and pass through the threaded hole to squeeze the switch assembly 3 toward the bottom surface of the lifting groove 11, so that the switch assembly 3 starts the heating wire 2.

[0035] It should be understood that in this solution, the threaded hole is provided at the top of the switch assembly 3. After the locking mechanism 4 is screwed to the threaded hole, it can continue to move downward through the threaded hole, abut and squeeze the switch mechanism, so that the switch mechanism opens and the heating wire 2 is energized.

[0036] A plurality of threaded holes are provided, and can be screwed to any threaded hole through a locking mechanism 4, allowing different binding lengths to accommodate patients of different body shapes; after any threaded hole is connected to the thread, the switch assembly 3 can be squeezed, so that the heating wire 2 connected to the switch assembly 3 is energized to generate heat; after the threaded connection is released, the switch assembly 3 recovers due to its own elasticity, thereby disconnecting the heating wire 2 and stopping heat generation. Through the above operation, the device can be energized when it is bound to the patient and disconnected after it is removed from the patient. That is, this solution can meet the needs of patients of different body shapes when wearing this diarrhea protection device, so that the heat preservation state is automatically turned on when it is bound and automatically disconnected after it is removed.

[0037] In other schemes, a driving block 5 and a transmission mechanism 6 are also provided; there are multiple heating wires 2, which are independent of each other, and the switch assembly 3 and the heating wire 2 correspond one to one; a sliding groove 12 is also provided on one side of the lifting groove 11, and the driving block 5 and the switch assembly 3 correspond one to one, and can be slidably arranged in the sliding groove 12, and the driving block 5 can slide toward the switch assembly 3 and squeeze the switch assembly 3 toward the bottom surface of the lifting groove 11; the transmission mechanism 6 is rotatably arranged in the sliding groove 12, and can drive the driving block 5 to slide toward the switch assembly 3 in turn, and maintain the abutment state of the driving block 5 after sliding; when the locking mechanism 4 is screwed to any threaded hole, it can drive the transmission mechanism 6 to rotate.

[0038] It should be understood that the multiple switch assemblies 3 are also independent of each other. By providing multiple heating wires 2, the amount of heat generated can be controlled by controlling the number of heating wires 2 energized. The transmission mechanism 6 sequentially abuts and compresses each drive block 5, causing the switch assembly 3 corresponding to the drive block 5 to energize the heating wire 2. Furthermore, because the transmission mechanism 6 can maintain abutment with the drive block 5 after sliding, the drive block 5 can maintain its compressive state against the switch assembly 3 after sliding until the transmission mechanism 6 is reset.

[0039] In other schemes, the switch assembly 3 includes a touch switch 31, a pressure plate 32 and a support spring 33; the touch switch 31 is connected to the corresponding heating wire 2, and the pressure plate 32 is slidably connected to the lifting groove 11 and is connected to the bottom surface of the lifting groove 11 through the support spring 33; the pressure plate 32 is provided with an inclined surface on the side close to the slide groove 12, and the driving block 5 can squeeze the inclined surface of the pressure plate 32 to make the pressure plate 32 slide toward the touch switch 31.

[0040] In other embodiments, the transmission mechanism 6 includes a rack 61 and a transmission assembly 62. The rack 61 is slidably connected to the slide slot 12. The side of the drive block 5 near the rack 61 is provided with an inclined surface. The sliding of the rack 61 can sequentially compress the inclined surface of the drive block 5. There are multiple transmission assemblies 62, each corresponding to a threaded hole. When the locking mechanism 4 is threadedly engaged with any threaded hole, it can drive the transmission assembly 62 to rotate, and the rotation of the transmission assembly 62 can drive the sliding of the rack 61. It should be understood that the relative position between each transmission assembly 62 and its corresponding threaded hole remains consistent.

[0041] In other schemes, the transmission assembly 62 includes a gear 621 and a transmission rotating rod 622; the gear 621 is rotatably connected to the slide groove 12 and engages with the rack 61. One end of the transmission rotating rod 622 is coaxially fixed on the gear 621, and the other end extends outward through the slide groove 12. When the locking mechanism 4 is threadedly connected to any threaded hole, it can drive the corresponding transmission rotating rod 622 to rotate.

[0042] In other embodiments, the locking mechanism 4 includes a locking assembly 41 and a driven gear ring 42; the locking assembly 41 is rotatably mounted on the end of the thermal insulation belt 1 away from the threaded hole and can be screwed into the threaded hole; the driven gear ring 42 is rotatably mounted on the end of the thermal insulation belt 1 near the locking assembly 41. The rotation of the locking assembly 41 can drive the driven gear ring 42 to rotate. When the locking assembly 41 is screwed into the threaded hole, the driven gear ring 42 is connected to the transmission rotating rod 622 via a spline. It should be noted that the driven gear ring 42 is already splined to the transmission rotating rod 622 before the locking assembly 41 is screwed into the threaded hole.

[0043] In other embodiments, the locking assembly 41 includes a driving gear ring 411 and a driving rod 412. The driving gear ring 411 is rotatably connected to the heat-insulating belt 1 and meshes with the driven gear ring 42. The driving rod 412 is coaxially splined to the driving gear ring 411 and rotatably penetrates the heat-insulating belt 1. The bottom end of the driving rod 412 is provided with threads corresponding to the threaded holes. It should be understood that the top end of the driving rod 412 can rotate and slide up and down on the heat-insulating belt 1.

[0044] In other solutions, a top cover 7 is further fixedly provided on the top of the driving rotating rod 412. By providing the top cover 7, the driving rotating rod 412 can be rotated more conveniently.

[0045] The diarrhea protection device can be opened or closed according to the binding state of the heat-insulating belt.

[0046] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some or all of the technical features therein.
