Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ultrasonic probe disinfection, and in particular to an ultrasonic medical probe disinfection device. Background Art

[0002] As the core component of ultrasonic diagnosis, ultrasound medical probes need to frequently and directly contact the patient's skin or mucosal surface. Due to the risk of infectious diseases among different patients, ultrasound probes need to be disinfected after use to reduce the risk of cross-infection.

[0003] Existing methods for disinfecting ultrasonic medical probes include using disinfecting coupling agents and disposable protective covers, which can only provide safety protection during use. If the probe is not disinfected after use, there is still a risk of cross infection. Therefore, ultrasonic probe sterilizers and chemical disinfectants are often used to disinfect the probes, but the corrosion resistance of ultrasonic probes to disinfectants is poor. For example, cationic surfactants, guanidine disinfectants, ethylene glycol and other oxidizing and corrosive disinfectants will corrode the ultrasonic probe, 75% ethanol may swell the silicone rubber sealing ring, and nanosilver may block the sound permeability of sound waves. Therefore, the ultrasonic probe sterilizer has the characteristics of uniform ultraviolet irradiation, thorough sterilization, rapid disinfection, and easy operation. It does not damage the acoustic lens and probe shell, and is an effective means to achieve ultrasonic probe disinfection.

[0004] However, the existing ultrasonic probe sterilizer still has the disadvantages of poor matching and low intelligence, and is usually not compatible with ultrasonic probes of various types and sizes for adaptive adjustment and disinfection; at the same time, there is the problem of uneven ultraviolet irradiation intensity and inability to disinfect in places where light is blocked. Therefore, the present invention provides an ultrasonic medical probe sterilization device with wide adaptability, which is convenient for achieving uniform disinfection of ultrasonic probes of different shapes. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides an ultrasonic medical probe disinfection device, which is used to adapt to probes of different shapes, reduce the generation of dark corners during the disinfection process, and improve the disinfection effect.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows: an ultrasonic medical probe disinfection device comprises a box body, and a clamping mechanism for measuring and clamping an ultrasonic probe body is provided on the top of the box body;

[0007] The clamping mechanism includes a plurality of clamping rods symmetrically arranged at the center of the box body and a storage plate for placing the ultrasonic probe body, the storage plate is located below the clamping rod, one end of the clamping rod is rotatably matched with a rotating shaft, and the end of the rotating shaft away from the clamping rod is provided with a pressure sensor for measuring the clamping condition of the clamping rod; the other end of the clamping rod is provided with a driving mechanism for pushing the clamping rod to move toward each other, the driving mechanism is electrically connected to a control panel, and the control panel is located on one side of the box body; and a conversion mechanism for the clamping rod to fix or release the storage plate is provided between the storage plate and the clamping rod, the conversion mechanism is electrically connected to the control panel, and when the clamping rod moves to the side away from the center of the box body, the clamping rod drives the storage plate to open the box body through the conversion mechanism;

[0008] A plurality of ultraviolet lamps are arranged in the box, and a rotation adjustment mechanism for adjusting the irradiation angle of the ultraviolet lamp is arranged in the box. The control panel is used to send adjustment instructions to the driving mechanism, the conversion mechanism and the rotation adjustment mechanism based on the real-time pressure data of the pressure sensor.

[0009] The technical principle of the above scheme is as follows: after the medical staff places the ultrasound probe body to be disinfected on the storage plate, the clamping rod is clamped and moved toward the center, the curvature of the surface of the ultrasound probe body is measured by the pressure sensor on the clamping rod, and the irradiation direction of the ultraviolet lamp is adjusted by rotating the adjustment mechanism. The storage plate is opened by measuring the curvature of the surface of the ultrasound probe, and the ultrasound probe body is rotated around the rotating axis, so that the ultraviolet lamp irradiates and disinfects the ultrasound probe body with ultraviolet rays.

[0010] The above scheme has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] 1. In this solution, when the clamping mechanism pushes toward the center through the clamping rod, the ultrasonic probe body is automatically stacked to ensure that the ultrasonic probe body falls into the box along the center of the box for disinfection.

[0012] 2. This solution determines the surface shape of the ultrasonic probe body by the pressure sensor on the clamping rod in contact with the ultrasonic probe body, and determines whether to clamp the ultrasonic probe body. Compared with the prior art, this solution facilitates the rotation adjustment control of the ultraviolet lamp based on the surface shape, thereby achieving uniform irradiation and disinfection of the ultrasonic probe body.

[0013] 3. Compared with the prior art, this solution uses the real-time pressure data of the pressure sensor to realize adaptive clamping control of ultrasound probe bodies of different shapes, thereby increasing the scope of use. At the same time, it has a high degree of intelligence and can automatically disinfect the ultrasound probe body.

[0014] Furthermore, the driving mechanism includes an air pump, the input end of the air pump is connected to the outside, and the input end of the air pump is also connected to a liquid storage tank for storing alcohol; the output end of the air pump is connected to the inside of the clamping rod through an air pipe, and a first solenoid valve is provided at the intersection between the air pipe and the clamping rod, and the first solenoid valve is electrically connected to the control panel;

[0015] The clamping rod comprises a first rod and a second rod, wherein an adjustment cavity is provided in the first rod and the second rod, wherein the diameter of the first rod is larger than the diameter of the second rod, and the first rod is fixedly connected to the top of the box body, the second rod is slidably matched with the first rod, and the rotating shaft is rotatably matched with an end of the second rod away from the first rod;

[0016] A plurality of exhaust holes are provided on the second rod, the exhaust holes are connected to the regulating chamber, and a second solenoid valve for controlling the exhaust holes to be connected to the regulating chamber is provided between the exhaust holes and the regulating chamber, and the second solenoid valve is electrically connected to the control panel;

[0017] A plurality of partitions are fixedly connected in the box body, and the partitions are symmetrically arranged with the box body as the center. The partitions are located below the clamping rods, and a slide groove is opened in the partitions. The storage plate is located in the slide groove, and the storage plate and the slide groove are slidably matched. A spring support is provided between the storage plate and the partitions.

[0018] Beneficial effect: The first solenoid valve is controlled through the control panel to control the amount of gas entering the clamping rod to keep the clamping rod clamping and fixing the ultrasonic probe body; the second solenoid valve is then controlled through the control panel to discharge the compressed air and alcohol inside the clamping rod to disinfect the surrounding area of ​​the ultrasonic probe body, thereby forming an environmental disinfection during the removal of the ultrasonic probe body and reducing bacterial residues.

[0019] Further, the conversion mechanism includes a plurality of lifting rods fixedly connected to the storage plate, the positions of the lifting rods and the clamping rods correspond, the interior of the lifting rods is hollow, and a magnetic block slides inside the lifting rods, the interior of the lifting rods is connected to the output end of the air pump through an air pipe, a third solenoid valve is connected between the lifting rods and the air pump, and the third solenoid valve is electrically connected to the control panel;

[0020] When the magnet block moves to the farthest point, the magnetic block is engaged with the clamping rod; when the magnet block moves to the lowest point, the magnetic block is separated from the clamping rod.

[0021] Beneficial effect: The third solenoid valve is controlled to start or close through the control panel to push the lifting rod to push the magnetic block to move upward to push the magnetic block to engage with the clamping rod. The clamping rod and the lifting rod are vertically fixedly connected through the suction force of the magnetic block. When the clamping rod moves outward, the storage plate is driven to move through the conversion mechanism, so that the storage plate is hidden in the slide slot, providing moving space for the ultrasonic probe body to fall, which is convenient for subsequent ultraviolet disinfection.

[0022] Furthermore, one end of the rotating shaft away from the first rod is fixedly connected with a rubber pad, and the pressure sensor is located between the rubber pad and the second rod.

[0023] Beneficial effects: The rubber pad can increase the contact area between the rotating shaft and the ultrasonic probe body, reduce the local pressure on the ultrasonic probe body, and achieve stability in the rotating shaft clamping process by increasing the friction area; the rubber pad can also form a buffering effect to reduce the instantaneous pressure on the pressure sensor, thereby protecting the pressure sensor.

[0024] Furthermore, the rotation adjustment mechanism includes a control rod that is fixedly connected to the ultraviolet lamp, a control space for the control rod to rotate is opened in the box, a central axis is rotatably matched at the center of the control rod, the central axis is welded to the box, and the control rod rotates around the central axis; a first electromagnet, a second electromagnet and a third electromagnet are sequentially arranged on one side of the control space away from the ultraviolet lamp in order from top to bottom, and the first electromagnet, the second electromagnet and the third electromagnet are electrically connected to the control panel;

[0025] When the first electromagnet is started and the second and third electromagnets are not started, the ultraviolet lamp irradiates downward; when the second electromagnet is started and the first and third electromagnets are not started, the ultraviolet lamp irradiates horizontally; when the third electromagnet is started and the second and first electromagnets are not started, the ultraviolet lamp irradiates upward.

[0026] Beneficial effect: The first electromagnet, the second electromagnet and the third electromagnet are controlled to work through the control panel, and the irradiation angle of the ultraviolet light is adjusted so that the emitted light is vertically irradiated with the ultrasonic probe body of different shapes, so as to reduce the generation of dark surfaces, thereby reducing the impact of the reduced radiation intensity of the ultraviolet lamp, and facilitating the comprehensive disinfection of the ultrasonic probe body.

[0027] Further, the control panel is used to input and record the position mark corresponding to each clamping rod and the opening duration of the first solenoid valve corresponding to the extension length of the clamping rod, the position mark includes the first solenoid valve, the second solenoid valve and the third solenoid valve associated with the clamping rod, and compare the real-time pressure data corresponding to each clamping rod at the current time with the standard value. If the real-time pressure data is less than the standard value, the control panel sends a maintenance instruction to the corresponding first solenoid valve; if the real-time pressure data is greater than the standard value, the control panel sends a stop instruction to the corresponding first solenoid valve, and the control panel obtains the position mark corresponding to the clamping rod and the opening duration of the first solenoid valve, and adds the extension length corresponding to the opening duration of the first solenoid valve to the position mark corresponding to the clamping rod;

[0028] When the real-time pressure data of each clamping rod before and after the current time are consistent, the control panel is used to obtain the corresponding extension length of each clamping rod based on the position mark, and then compare the extension lengths of adjacent clamping rods one by one. If the extension lengths of adjacent clamping rods are consistent, the clamping rod is marked as the wire part. If the extension lengths of adjacent clamping rods are inconsistent, the clamping rod is marked as the probe part, and the clamping rod corresponding to the junction of the wire part and the probe part is marked as the center axis. The control panel sends start instructions to the third solenoid valve and the second solenoid valve corresponding to the clamping rod without the center axis mark in sequence.

[0029] Beneficial effect: The air pump continuously pumps outside air and alcohol into the clamping rod, and the real-time pressure data is compared with the standard value to determine whether the clamping rod is in contact with the ultrasonic probe body. At the same time, during the clamping rod fixing process, the extension lengths of adjacent clamping rods are compared one by one to determine the intersection between the wire part and the ultrasonic probe body. When the clamping rod moves to both sides through the conversion mechanism, the storage plate is driven to leak out of the box, so that the ultrasonic probe rotates around the clamping rod marked as the central axis due to gravity and falls into the box. The ultrasonic probe body is subsequently disinfected by ultraviolet light.

[0030] Furthermore, the control panel is also used to calculate the surface directions of adjacent clamping rods based on the clamping rod marked with the central axis as the base point, and then respectively based on the front and rear order of the position marks corresponding to each clamping rod, if the extension length corresponding to the current clamping rod is greater than the extension length corresponding to the previous clamping rod, then the drop depth is calculated based on the position relationship between the position mark corresponding to the current clamping rod and the base point, and then a start instruction is sent to the corresponding first electromagnet based on the drop depth;

[0031] If the extension length corresponding to the current clamping rod is equal to the extension length corresponding to the previous clamping rod, the drop depth is calculated based on the positional relationship between the position mark corresponding to the current clamping rod and the base point, and then a start instruction is sent to the corresponding second electromagnet based on the drop depth;

[0032] If the extension length corresponding to the current clamping rod is less than the extension length corresponding to the previous clamping rod, the drop depth is calculated based on the position relationship between the position mark corresponding to the current clamping rod and the base point, and then a start command is sent to the corresponding third electromagnet based on the drop depth.

[0033] Beneficial effect: The curvature change of the surface of the ultrasonic probe body is obtained through the position marks of each clamping rod, and the irradiation direction of the ultraviolet light is adjusted based on the positional relationship between each clamping rod and the base point. The shape of the ultrasonic probe body is measured and the ultraviolet lamp is controlled to rotate accordingly to achieve uniform irradiation and disinfection of the ultrasonic probe body.

[0034] Furthermore, shielding grooves are formed between adjacent storage plates, and a plurality of deformable shielding sheets are fixedly connected in the shielding grooves.

[0035] Beneficial effect: The shielding groove provides a locking space for the placement of the ultrasonic probe body, so that the ultrasonic probe body can be dropped into the box for disinfection. At the same time, the rubber layer shields the light leaking from the shielding groove to reduce the interference with the surrounding environment during ultraviolet disinfection.

[0036] Furthermore, the side of the rubber pad away from the rotating shaft is arc-shaped, and a plurality of cross-arranged lines are engraved on the rubber pad.

[0037] Beneficial effect: The arc-shaped rubber pad is adapted to fit the surface of the ultrasonic probe body, and the texture increases the friction between the rubber pad and the ultrasonic probe body, so as to fix the ultrasonic probe body and ensure the stability of the ultrasonic probe body during falling.

[0038] Furthermore, it also includes a recording module, which is used to enter and record standard parameters corresponding to ultrasonic probe bodies of different shapes, the standard parameters including standard clamping mechanism displacement parameters and standard ultraviolet irradiation angles, and the standard clamping mechanism displacement parameters including the extension length corresponding to each clamping rod; the recording module compares the extension length at the current time with the standard clamping mechanism displacement parameters for consistency, if the extension length at the current time is consistent with the standard clamping mechanism displacement parameters, then a direct control instruction is sent to the control panel based on the standard ultraviolet irradiation angle, and the control panel sends an adjustment instruction to the rotation adjustment mechanism based on the direct control instruction; if the extension length at the current time is inconsistent with the standard clamping mechanism displacement parameters, then a comparison instruction is sent to the control panel, and the control panel compares the position marks of adjacent clamping rods in sequence based on the comparison instruction, and the control panel establishes new standard parameters based on the comparison instruction.

[0039] Beneficial effects: By establishing standard parameters, the computing processing of the control panel is reduced to achieve direct rotation control of the ultraviolet lamp, thereby reducing the disinfection time. At the same time, by automatically establishing standard parameters, subsequent intelligent control is achieved to improve disinfection efficiency.

[0051] The following is further described in detail through specific implementation methods:

[0052] Embodiment 1:

[0053] As attached Figures 1 to 6 As shown: An ultrasonic medical probe disinfection device includes a box body 1, and a clamping mechanism for measuring and clamping the ultrasonic probe body is provided on the top of the box body 1. The clamping mechanism includes a plurality of clamping rods 3 symmetrically arranged at the center of the box body 1 and a placement plate 4 for placing the ultrasonic probe body, and the placement plate 4 is located below the clamping rods 3.

[0054] Two partitions 11 are welded inside the box body 1, and the partitions 11 are symmetrically arranged with the box body 1 as the center. The partitions 11 are located below the clamping rod 3, and a slide groove 13 is opened in the partition 11. The storage plate 4 is located in the slide groove 13, and the storage plate 4 slides with the slide groove 13. A spring support is provided between the storage plate 4 and the partition 11. The clamping rod 3 is rotatably matched with a rotating shaft 34 at one end, and a pressure sensor (not shown in the figure) is provided at the end of the rotating shaft 34 away from the clamping rod 3 for measuring the clamping condition of the clamping rod 3; the clamping rod 3 includes a first rod 31 and a second rod 32, and an adjustment cavity (not shown in the figure) is provided in the first rod 31 and the second rod 32, the diameter of the first rod 31 is larger than the diameter of the second rod 32, and the first rod 31 is clamped with the top of the box body 1, the second rod 32 is slidably matched with the first rod 31, the rotating shaft 34 is rotatably matched with the end of the second rod 32 away from the first rod 31, and a rubber pad 35 is bonded to the end of the rotating shaft 34 away from the first rod 31, and the pressure sensor is located between the rubber pad 35 and the second rod 32. The side of the rubber pad 35 away from the rotating shaft 34 is arc-shaped, and a plurality of cross-arranged lines are engraved on the rubber pad 35. A plurality of exhaust holes 33 are formed on the second rod 32 . The exhaust holes 33 are connected to the regulating chamber, and a second solenoid valve for controlling the exhaust holes 33 to be connected to the regulating chamber is installed between the exhaust holes 33 and the regulating chamber.

[0055] The other end of the clamping rod 3 is provided with a driving mechanism for pushing the clamping rod 3 to move toward each other, and the driving mechanism is electrically connected to a control panel (not shown in the figure), and the control panel is located on one side of the box body 1; the driving mechanism includes an air pump (not shown in the figure, the air pump in this example is a starting diaphragm pump for handling flammable and explosive gases), the input end of the air pump is connected to the outside, and the input end of the air pump is also connected to a liquid storage tank for storing alcohol (not shown in the figure); the output end of the air pump is connected to the inside of the clamping rod 3 through the air pipe 2, and a first solenoid valve is provided at the junction between the air pipe 2 and the clamping rod 3, and the first solenoid valve and the second solenoid valve are electrically connected to the control panel.

[0056] A conversion mechanism is provided between the storage plate 4 and the clamping rod 3 for fixing or releasing the storage plate 4 by the clamping rod 3, and a matching groove 12 for placing the conversion mechanism is provided above the slide groove 13. The conversion mechanism includes a plurality of lifting rods 41 welded to the storage plate 4, the lifting rods 41 correspond to the positions of the clamping rod 3, the lifting rods 41 are hollow inside, and a magnetic block 42 slides inside the lifting rods 41, the lifting rods 41 are connected to the output end of the air pump through the air pipe 2, and a third electromagnetic valve (not shown in the figure) is connected between the lifting rods 41 and the air pump, and the third electromagnetic valve is electrically connected to the control panel; when the magnet block moves to the farthest point, the magnetic block 42 is engaged with the clamping rod 3; when the magnet block moves to the lowest point, the magnetic block 42 is separated from the clamping rod 3. The conversion mechanism is electrically connected to the control panel, and when the clamping rod 3 moves to the side away from the center of the box body 1, the clamping rod 3 drives the storage plate 4 to open the box body 1 through the conversion mechanism.

[0057] A plurality of ultraviolet lamps 5 are arranged in the box body 1. A rotation adjustment mechanism for adjusting the irradiation angle of the ultraviolet lamps 5 is arranged in the box body 1. The rotation adjustment mechanism includes a control rod 51 bonded to the ultraviolet lamps 5. A control space for the control rod 51 to rotate is opened in the box body 1. A central axis (not shown in the figure) is rotated at the center of the control rod 51. The central axis is welded to the box body 1, and the control rod 51 rotates around the central axis. A first electromagnet 52, a second electromagnet 53 and a third electromagnet 54 are arranged in sequence from top to bottom on one side of the control space away from the ultraviolet lamp 5. Among them, the first electromagnet 52 is located at the control space. Above the control rod 51, the second electromagnet 53 is parallel to the central axis, the third electromagnet 54 is located below the control rod 51, and the first electromagnet 52, the second electromagnet 53 and the third electromagnet 54 are electrically connected to the control panel; when the first electromagnet 52 is started and the second electromagnet 53 and the third electromagnet 54 are not started, the ultraviolet lamp 5 irradiates downward; when the second electromagnet 53 is started and the first electromagnet 52 and the third electromagnet 54 are not started, the ultraviolet lamp 5 irradiates horizontally; when the third electromagnet 54 is started and the second electromagnet 53 and the first electromagnet 52 are not started, the ultraviolet lamp 5 irradiates upward.

[0058] The control panel is used to enter and record the position mark corresponding to each clamping rod 3 and the opening duration of the first solenoid valve corresponding to the extended length of the clamping rod 3. The position mark includes the first solenoid valve, the second solenoid valve and the third solenoid valve associated with the clamping rod 3. The real-time pressure data corresponding to each clamping rod 3 at the current time is compared with the standard value. If the real-time pressure data is less than the standard value, the control panel sends a maintenance instruction to the corresponding first solenoid valve; if the real-time pressure data is greater than the standard value, the control panel sends a stop instruction to the corresponding first solenoid valve, and the control panel obtains the position mark corresponding to the clamping rod 3 and the opening duration of the first solenoid valve, and adds the extended length corresponding to the opening duration of the first solenoid valve to the position mark corresponding to the clamping rod 3.

[0059] For example, when the air pump continuously pumps outside air and alcohol into the clamping rod 3 to continuously push the first rod 31 to move, since the pumping rate of the air pump is consistent, the extended length of the first rod 31 relative to the second rod 32 corresponds to the opening duration of the first solenoid valve. By comparing the real-time pressure data with the standard value, it is determined whether the clamping rod 3 is in contact with the ultrasonic probe body to keep the clamping rod 3 clamping and fixing the ultrasonic probe body.

[0060] When the real-time pressure data of each clamping rod 3 before and after the current time are consistent, the control panel is used to obtain the corresponding extension length of each clamping rod 3 based on the position mark, and then compare the extension lengths of adjacent clamping rods 3 one by one. If the extension lengths of adjacent clamping rods 3 are consistent, the clamping rod 3 is marked as a wire part. If the extension lengths of adjacent clamping rods 3 are inconsistent, the clamping rod 3 is marked as a probe part, and the clamping rod 3 corresponding to the junction of the wire part and the probe part is marked as the center axis. The control panel sends start instructions to the third solenoid valve and the second solenoid valve corresponding to the clamping rod 3 without the center axis mark in sequence.

[0061] For example, during the process of fixing the clamping rod 3, since the wires are often cylindrical, the extended lengths of adjacent clamping rods 3 are compared one by one to determine the intersection between the wire portion and the ultrasonic probe body, and then the start instructions are sent to the third solenoid valve and the second solenoid valve in sequence, so that the conversion mechanism fixes the placement plate 4 and the clamping rod 3. When the clamping rod 3 moves to both sides, the placement plate 4 is driven to leak out of the box body 1, so that the ultrasonic probe body rotates around the clamping rod 3 marked as the center axis due to gravity, and the ultrasonic probe body is subsequently disinfected by the ultraviolet lamp 5.

[0062] The control panel is also used to calculate the surface direction of the adjacent clamping rods 3 based on the clamping rod 3 marked with the central axis as the base point, and then based on the front and back order of the corresponding position marks of each clamping rod 3. If the extension length corresponding to the current clamping rod 3 is greater than the extension length corresponding to the previous clamping rod 3, the drop depth is calculated based on the position relationship between the position mark corresponding to the current clamping rod 3 and the base point, and then a start instruction is sent to the corresponding first electromagnet 52 based on the drop depth. If the extension length corresponding to the current clamping rod 3 is equal to the extension length corresponding to the previous clamping rod 3, the drop depth is calculated based on the position relationship between the position mark corresponding to the current clamping rod 3 and the base point, and then a start instruction is sent to the corresponding second electromagnet 53 based on the drop depth. If the extension length corresponding to the current clamping rod 3 is less than the extension length corresponding to the previous clamping rod 3, the drop depth is calculated based on the position relationship between the position mark corresponding to the current clamping rod 3 and the base point, and then a start instruction is sent to the corresponding third electromagnet 54 based on the drop depth.

[0063] For example, since the clamping rod 3 marked by the central axis is the rotation point, when the ultrasonic probe body falls into the box 1, the position of each clamping rod 3 matches the length and shape of the ultrasonic probe body. Therefore, the curvature change of the surface of the ultrasonic probe body is obtained through the position mark of each clamping rod 3, and then the irradiation direction of the ultraviolet light is adjusted based on the positional relationship between each clamping rod 3 and the base point, and the shape of the ultrasonic probe body is measured and the ultraviolet lamp 5 is controlled to rotate accordingly to achieve uniform irradiation and disinfection of the ultrasonic probe body.

[0064] The specific implementation process is as follows: First, the medical staff places the ultrasonic probe body to be disinfected on the storage plate 4, starts the air pump, and controls the first solenoid valve through the control panel to control the amount of gas entering the clamping rod 3 to keep the clamping rod 3 clamping and fixing the ultrasonic probe body. Then, by comparing the real-time pressure data with the standard value, it is determined whether the clamping rod 3 is in contact with the ultrasonic probe body, and the ultrasonic probe body is automatically stacked. Then, the extended lengths of adjacent clamping rods 3 are compared one by one to determine the intersection between the wire part and the ultrasonic probe body. Subsequently, the real-time pressure data of the pressure sensor is used to realize adaptive clamping control of ultrasonic probe bodies of different shapes, thereby improving the scope of use and the degree of intelligence.

[0065] The second solenoid valve is controlled by the control panel to keep the clamping rod 3 marked on the central axis fixed while achieving the discharge of the compressed air and alcohol inside the clamping rod 3 to achieve the disinfection of the periphery of the ultrasonic probe body, so as to form an environmental disinfection during the removal of the ultrasonic probe body and reduce bacterial residues. At the same time, the third solenoid valve is started or closed to push the lifting rod 41 to push the magnetic block 42 to move upward to push the magnetic block 42 to engage with the clamping rod 3. The clamping rod 3 is vertically fixedly connected to the lifting rod 41 through the suction force of the magnetic block 42. When the clamping rod 3 moves outward, the conversion mechanism is used to drive the storage plate 4 to move, so that the storage plate 4 is hidden in the slide groove 13, providing a moving space for the ultrasonic probe body to fall, and facilitating the subsequent ultraviolet disinfection.

[0066] During the clamping process of the clamping rod 3, the curvature change of the surface of the ultrasonic probe body is obtained through the position marks of each clamping rod 3, and then the irradiation direction of the ultraviolet light is adjusted based on the positional relationship between each clamping rod 3 and the base point. The control panel is used to control the operation of the first electromagnet 52, the second electromagnet 53 and the third electromagnet 54, and the irradiation angle of the ultraviolet light is adjusted so that the emitted light is perpendicular to the ultrasonic probe body of different shapes, so as to reduce the generation of dark surfaces, thereby reducing the impact of the reduced radiation intensity of the ultraviolet lamp 5, and facilitating the comprehensive disinfection of the ultrasonic probe body.

[0067] Embodiment 2:

[0068] The difference from Example 1 is that shielding grooves 43 are formed between adjacent storage plates 4, and a plurality of deformable shielding sheets (not shown in the figure) are fixedly connected in the shielding grooves 43. In this embodiment, the shielding sheets are made of medical silicone rubber.

[0069] The specific implementation process is as follows: when the gas inside the conversion mechanism is discharged to release the push on the magnetic suction block 42, the compressed spring pushes the storage plate 4 to re-cover the box 1, and a locking space is provided for the placement of the ultrasound probe body through the shielding groove 43, so that the ultrasound probe body can fall into the box 1 for disinfection. At the same time, the light leaking from the shielding groove 43 is shielded by the rubber layer to reduce the interference with the surrounding environment during the ultraviolet disinfection process.

[0070] Embodiment 3:

[0071] The difference from Example 2 is that it also includes a recording module, which is used to enter and record standard parameters corresponding to ultrasonic probe bodies of different shapes, the standard parameters including standard clamping mechanism displacement parameters and standard ultraviolet irradiation angles, and the standard clamping mechanism displacement parameters include the extension length corresponding to each clamping rod 3; the recording module compares the extension length at the current time with the standard clamping mechanism displacement parameters for consistency, and if the extension length at the current time is consistent with the standard clamping mechanism displacement parameters, a direct control instruction is sent to the control panel based on the standard ultraviolet irradiation angle, and the control panel sends an adjustment instruction to the rotation adjustment mechanism based on the direct control instruction; if the extension length at the current time is inconsistent with the standard clamping mechanism displacement parameters, a comparison instruction is sent to the control panel, and the control panel compares the position marks of adjacent clamping rods 3 in sequence based on the comparison instruction, and the control panel establishes new standard parameters based on the comparison instruction.

[0072] For example, by establishing standard parameters, the computational processing load of the control panel can be reduced to achieve direct rotation control of the ultraviolet lamp 5, thereby reducing the disinfection time. At the same time, by automatically establishing standard parameters, subsequent intelligent control can be achieved to improve the disinfection efficiency.

[0073] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of the invention.
