[0025] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] The present invention provides a technical solution for an electronically controlled fecal anus device:

[0027] Embodiment 1:

[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the artificial anus device mainly includes a fixing ring 1 and a control panel 10 , a valve 2 is fixedly installed at the inner edge of the top of the fixing ring 1 , and a contraction line 9 is fixedly connected to the tip of the valve 2 .

[0029] Concave grooves 4 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the fixing ring 1 , and a light transmitter 5 and a light receiver 6 are respectively installed in the inner cavities of the two concave grooves 4 .

[0030] An annular groove 3 is provided on the top of the fixing ring 1, and micro motors 8 are installed at equal distances in the inner cavity of the annular groove 3. A winding wheel is mounted on the output shaft of the micro motor 8, and one end of the contraction line 9 is wound around the outer ring of the winding wheel.

[0031] A rubber strip 7 for sealing is arranged in the inner cavity of the annular groove 3 , and a micro motor 8 is located between the ends of every two rubber strips 7 .

[0032] A battery for powering the light transmitter 5, the light receiver 6 and the micro motor 8 is placed in the annular groove 3, and a signal interaction module for sending and receiving signals is also arranged in the annular groove.

[0033] A three-level button 11 is arranged on the side of the control panel 10 , and a processor module, a signal interaction module and a power supply module are also arranged in the inner cavity of the control panel 10 .

[0034] The valve 2 is an elastic membrane, and the sides of the valve 2 are sealed in pairs.

[0035] The light emitter 5 and the light receiver 6 are symmetrically arranged and distributed around the center of the fixing ring 1 , and the light emitter 5 and the light receiver 6 are located on the same horizontal plane.

[0036] The three-level buttons 11 on the control panel 10 are respectively provided with "exhaust", "defecation" and "defecation control" instruction stickers.

[0037] In this embodiment, during actual use, after radical surgery for rectal cancer, the artificial anus device of the present technical solution is sutured to the rectal stump, and the rectal stump is sutured to the anal margin. When the patient feels the urge to defecate, the light emitted by the light emitter 5 directly penetrates the excrement to reach the light receiver 6. When the excrement is feces, the light emitted by the light emitter 5 is blocked and cannot penetrate. The light receiver 6 can only receive a small amount of light or no light. At this time, the light receiver 6 will generate a signal, which is processed and transmitted to the signal interaction module, and then sent to the control board 10 via the signal interaction module. The control board 10 is processed After receiving the signal, the processor processes the signal and displays light on the corresponding three-level button 11, that is, the three-level button 11 with the defecation patch lights up or flashes. At this time, the patient can directly press the three-level button 11 for defecation. The generated signal is sent to the processor on the fixed ring 1 through the signal interaction module. After receiving the signal, the processor directly controls the micro motor 8 to work. The micro motor 8 starts to rotate at high speed and quickly rewinds the contraction line 9. When the contraction line 9 contracts, the valves 2 will be pulled apart from each other, thereby quickly opening each valve to perform the defecation operation.

[0038] Embodiment 2:

[0039] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the artificial anus device mainly includes a fixing ring 1 and a control panel 10 , a valve 2 is fixedly installed at the inner edge of the top of the fixing ring 1 , and a contraction line 9 is fixedly connected to the tip of the valve 2 .

[0040] Concave grooves 4 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the fixing ring 1 , and a light transmitter 5 and a light receiver 6 are respectively installed in the inner cavities of the two concave grooves 4 .

[0041] An annular groove 3 is provided on the top of the fixing ring 1, and micro motors 8 are installed at equal distances in the inner cavity of the annular groove 3. A winding wheel is mounted on the output shaft of the micro motor 8, and one end of the contraction line 9 is wound around the outer ring of the winding wheel.

[0042] A rubber strip 7 for sealing is arranged in the inner cavity of the annular groove 3 , and a micro motor 8 is located between the ends of every two rubber strips 7 .

[0043] A battery for powering the light transmitter 5, the light receiver 6 and the micro motor is placed in the annular groove 3, and a signal interaction module for sending and receiving signals is also arranged in the annular groove.

[0044] A three-level button 11 is arranged on the side of the control panel 10 , and a processor module, a signal interaction module and a power supply module are also arranged in the inner cavity of the control panel 10 .

[0045] The valve 2 is an elastic membrane, and the sides of the valve 2 are fitted and sealed in pairs.

[0046] The light emitter 5 and the light receiver 6 are symmetrically arranged and distributed around the center of the fixing ring 1 , and the light emitter 5 and the light receiver 6 are located on the same horizontal plane.

[0047] The three-level buttons 11 on the control panel 10 are respectively provided with "exhaust", "defecation" and "defecation control" instruction stickers.

[0048] In this embodiment, when it is actually used, after the radical operation of rectal cancer, the artificial anus device of this technical solution is sutured to the end of the rectum, and the end of the rectum is sutured to the anal margin. When the patient has the urge to defecate, the light emitted by the light emitter 5 directly penetrates the excrement to reach the light receiver 6. When the excrement is urine, although the light emitted by the light emitter 5 is blocked, it can still penetrate a large amount of light. When the light receiver 6 can only receive a large amount of light, the light receiver 6 will generate a signal, which is processed and transmitted to the signal interaction module, and then sent to the control board 10 via the signal interaction module. The control board 10 After the processor receives the signal, it processes the signal and displays light on the corresponding three-level button 11, that is, the three-level button 11 with the exhaust sticker lights up or flashes. At this time, the patient can directly press the three-level button 11 for exhaust. The generated signal is sent to the processor on the fixed ring 1 through the signal interaction module. After the processor receives the signal, it directly controls the micro motor 8 to work, and the micro motor 8 starts to rotate normally to reel in the contraction line 9. When the contraction line 9 contracts, the valves 2 will be pulled apart from each other, so that each valve 2 can be opened at a normal speed to perform defecation operations.

[0049] Embodiment 3:

[0050] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the artificial anus device mainly includes a fixing ring 1 and a control panel 10 , a valve 2 is fixedly installed at the inner edge of the top of the fixing ring 1 , and a contraction line 9 is fixedly connected to the tip of the valve 2 .

[0051] Concave grooves 4 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the fixing ring 1 , and a light transmitter 5 and a light receiver 6 are respectively installed in the inner cavities of the two concave grooves 4 .

[0052] An annular groove 3 is provided on the top of the fixing ring 1, and micro motors 8 are installed at equal distances in the inner cavity of the annular groove 3. A winding wheel is mounted on the output shaft of the micro motor 8, and one end of the contraction line 9 is wound around the outer ring of the winding wheel.

[0053] A rubber strip 7 for sealing is arranged in the inner cavity of the annular groove 3 , and a micro motor 8 is located between the ends of every two rubber strips 7 .

[0054] A battery for powering the light transmitter 5, the light receiver 6 and the micro motor is placed in the annular groove 3, and a signal interaction module for sending and receiving signals is also arranged in the annular groove.

[0055] A three-level button 11 is arranged on the side of the control panel 10 , and a processor module, a signal interaction module and a power supply module are also arranged in the inner cavity of the control panel 10 .

[0056] The valve 2 is an elastic membrane, and the sides of the valve 2 are fitted and sealed in pairs.

[0057] The light emitter 5 and the light receiver 6 are symmetrically arranged and distributed around the center of the fixing ring 1 , and the light emitter 5 and the light receiver 6 are located on the same horizontal plane.

[0058] The three-level buttons 11 on the control panel 10 are respectively provided with "exhaust", "defecation" and "defecation control" instruction stickers.

[0059] In this embodiment, in actual use, after radical surgery for rectal cancer, the artificial anus device of the present technical solution is sutured to the rectal stump, and the rectal stump is sutured to the anal margin. When the patient has the urge to defecate, the light emitted by the light emitter 5 directly penetrates the excrement to reach the light receiver 6. When the excrement is watery stool, that is, when diarrhea occurs, the light emitted by the light emitter 5 is blocked, and only a small amount of light will penetrate the watery stool. The light receiver 6 receives a small amount of light. At this time, the light receiver 6 will generate a signal, which is processed and transmitted to the signal interaction module, and then sent to the control board 10 via the signal interaction module. After the processor in the control board 10 receives the signal, the signal is processed by the processor, and the light is displayed on the corresponding three-level button 11, that is, the three-level button 11 with the control sticker is illuminated or flashing. At this time, the patient can directly press the three-level button 11 for control of defecation, and the generated signal is sent to the processor on the fixed ring 1 through the signal interaction module. After the processor receives the signal, it chooses not to start the micro motor 8. At this time, the valve 2 relies on its own calendar to close each other in pairs to achieve control of defecation.

[0060] In summary, the technical solution can achieve precise defecation and defecation control, relieve the psychological pressure of permanent fistula and loss of anus, and eliminate the trouble of poor defecation control ability of patients after surgery. It is expected to achieve a lower position of rectal anal preservation operation. At the same time, patients can choose the defecation time independently and open the defecation device at regular time every day for regular defecation.
