[0024] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 , this embodiment provides an operating room plasma smoke remover 200, the operating room plasma smoke remover 200 includes a main body 210, a plasma generator 220 and a suction component 230; The main body 210 is provided with a sterilization inner chamber 211 and a first air inlet 212 and a first air outlet 213 connected to the sterilization inner chamber 211; the plasma generator 220 is arranged in the sterilization inner chamber 211; The suction assembly 230 includes an air collecting head 231, an air collecting pipe 232 and a storage bin 233; the storage bin 233 is connected to the main body 210, and the two ends of the air collecting pipe 232 are respectively connected to the first air inlet 212 and the air collecting head 231, and the storage bin 233 is used to store the air collecting pipe 232 and hang the air collecting head 231.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 The working principle of the operating room plasma smoke remover 200 is: The plasma smoke remover 200 for an operating room includes a main body 210, a plasma generator 220 and a suction assembly 230; the plasma smoke remover 200 for an operating room sucks smoke generated during surgery through the suction assembly 230, and transports the smoke to the main body 210, and releases the smoke after the plasma generator 220 is sterilized and disinfected; When configuring the suction assembly 230, in order to improve its operational flexibility, the suction assembly 230 is configured to include a gas collecting head 231, a gas collecting pipe 232 and a storage bin 233, wherein the storage bin 233 is connected to the main body 210, and the two ends of the gas collecting pipe 232 are respectively connected to the first air inlet 212 and the gas collecting head 231, and the storage bin 233 is used to store the gas collecting pipe 232 and hang the gas collecting head 231, so that during use, the gas collecting pipe 232 can be pulled out of the storage bin 233 by operating the gas collecting head 231, thereby expanding the activity range of the gas collecting head 231 and moving it to the smoke source, so that the smoke can be quickly collected, so as to facilitate rapid treatment of the smoke; Therefore, the operating room plasma smoke eliminator 200 has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and can be flexibly moved to the source of the smoke, so as to quickly collect and process the smoke, thereby eliminating viruses, bacteria and toxic substances in the smoke, thereby preventing the smoke from spreading in the operating room or spreading to the external environment of the operating room, thereby helping to protect the health of medical staff and patients.

[0026] It should be noted that when configuring the gas collecting pipe 232 and the storage bin 233, a rolling or telescopic storage method can be adopted. To match this, a rolling disk and other structures can be configured in the storage bin 233. The specific structure will not be repeated here.

[0027] In addition, in order to improve the efficiency of extracting smoke, a corresponding pump body structure can be configured. The pump body can be set at the connection point between the air collecting pipe 232 and the main body 210, or set on the air collecting head 231. Its specific structure can be set according to actual needs and will not be repeated here. Moreover, an exhaust fan can also be configured at the first air outlet 213 to guide the airflow from the first air inlet 212 to the first air outlet 213.

[0028] For further information, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 In this embodiment, the plasma generator 220 includes a power supply, a positive plate and a negative plate, and the positive plate and the negative plate are electrically connected to the power supply. The working principle of the plasma generator 220 is to increase the low voltage to positive high voltage and negative high voltage through a boost circuit, and use the positive high voltage and negative high voltage to ionize the air (mainly oxygen) to generate a large number of positive ions and negative ions, and the number of negative ions is greater than the number of positive ions (the number of negative ions is about 1.5 times the number of positive ions); at the same time, the positive ions and negative ions generated in the air are neutralized by positive and negative charges, and huge energy is released at the moment, which leads to changes in the structure of bacteria around them or energy conversion, thereby causing the death of bacteria and achieving its sterilization effect; because the number of negative ions is greater than the number of positive ions, therefore, the excess negative ions are still floating in the air, which can achieve the effect of eliminating smoke, eliminating life, eliminating odors and improving the quality of air.

[0029] In addition, based on the structure of the above-mentioned plasma generator 220, the plasma generator 220 also includes a honeycomb plate, which is arranged between the positive plate and the negative plate. By configuring the honeycomb plate in the plasma generator 220, the discharge effect can be enhanced and the gas flow characteristics can be improved, so that the space utilization rate and the flue gas treatment amount can be improved, thereby improving the plasma reaction efficiency. In general, the role of the honeycomb plate in the plasma generator 220 is to optimize the discharge effect and gas flow, thereby improving the efficiency and performance of the entire system.

[0030] For further information, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3In the present embodiment, when configuring the above-mentioned main body 210, the main body 210 is configured as a rectangular parallelepiped structure. On this basis, when configuring the first air inlet 212 and the first air outlet 213, the first air inlet 212 and the first air outlet 213 can be distributed on two opposite sides of the main body 210. The purpose is that when the smoke is collected through the air collecting head 231, the collected air flow rate can be adjusted according to actual needs. In order to meet the processing requirements of the collected smoke, the first air inlet 212 and the first air outlet 213 are arranged on two opposite sides of the main body 210 to extend the processing time of disinfection and sterilization in the plasma generator 220, thereby improving the quality of disinfection and sterilization.

[0031] Moreover, on this basis, the top and bottom sides of the main body 210 are respectively provided with a second air inlet 215 and a second air outlet 216, and the second air inlet 215 and the second air outlet 216 are both connected to the sterilization inner chamber 211. Such a setting is intended to introduce air from the environment through the second air inlet 215, thereby processing the mixed smoke in the air, and further processing the residual smoke in the operating room.

[0032] Moreover, based on the configuration of the above-mentioned first air inlet 212, first air outlet 213, second air inlet 215 and second air outlet 216, the operating room plasma smoke removal includes a variety of working states, that is, air can be taken in through one or more of the first air inlet 212 and the second air inlet 215, and air can be exhausted through one or more of the first air outlet 213 and the second air outlet 216. Based on this, during use, an air intake pump can be set at the first air inlet 212 and the second air inlet 215 as needed, and an exhaust fan can be set at the first air outlet 213 and the second air outlet 216, so as to adjust its working state to facilitate its automation and intelligence.

[0033] In addition, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 In order to actively control the air outlet states of the first air outlet 213 and the second air outlet 216, a first active damper assembly 214 is disposed at the first air outlet 213, and the first active damper assembly 214 is used to open or block the first air outlet 213. A second active damper assembly 217 is disposed at the second air outlet 216, and the second active damper assembly 217 is used to open or block the second air outlet 216.

[0034] Through the structural arrangement of the first active air door assembly 214 and the second active air door assembly 217, it is possible to actively control the air outlet states of the first air outlet 213 and the second air outlet 216, so as to adjust the air outlet positions according to the use requirements, so as to improve the smoke treatment effect; for example, referring to Figure 3In the direction indicated by the middle arrow A, when the smoke is extracted through the air collecting head 231, the second active damper assembly 217 can be controlled to close the second air outlet 216, and the first active damper assembly 214 can be controlled to open the first air outlet 213, so that the smoke is introduced into the plasma generator 220 from the first air inlet 212 and then discharged from the first air outlet 213, thereby ensuring the treatment effect of the smoke in the plasma generator 220; in other use states, refer to Figure 3 In the direction indicated by the middle arrow B, air can be taken in through the second air inlet 215, the first active damper assembly 214 is controlled to close the first air outlet 213, and the second active damper assembly 217 is controlled to open the second air outlet 216, so that the smoke is introduced into the plasma generator 220 through the second air inlet 215 and then discharged through the second air outlet 216.

[0035] Based on the above structural setting, in order to detect the quality of the air after being processed by the plasma generator 220, a gas detection unit is provided at the first air outlet 213 and the second air outlet 216. In order to prevent foreign matter or other particles in the air from entering the sterilization inner chamber 211, a first filter 218 is provided at the first air inlet 212, and a second filter 219 is provided at the second air inlet 215.

[0036] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various modifications and variations.
