Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular relates to a three-way control valve of a double-lumen endotracheal tube. Background Art

[0002] In the clinical anesthesia process of double-lumen endotracheal intubation, patients need to repeatedly switch between single-lung and double-lung ventilation to ensure that the surgical side of the lung collapses and facilitate the surgical operation of the surgeon. In order to achieve single-lung ventilation, our anesthesiologists often remove the Y-type connector of the double-lumen endotracheal tube and replace it with a single-tube connector to ventilate the left or right lung. If double-lung ventilation is required, the single-tube connector is removed and connected to the Y-type connector; some also do not remove the Y-type connector and use metal pliers to clamp the left and right bronchial tubes to switch between single and double lung ventilation; some also add double independent switch valves at the upper end of the Y-type connector. However, these existing methods have shown the shortcomings of cumbersome operation in clinical practice, which adds extra workload and inconvenience to anesthesiologists. In view of this, it is particularly important to invent a three-way control valve. This switch can not only efficiently solve the problem of switching between single-lung and double-lung ventilation, but also facilitate the suction of sputum on the left and right tracheal cavities. Therefore, it can effectively ensure the safety of patients while reducing the workload of clinical anesthesiologists. Summary of the invention

[0006] The sealing ring is an open circular tube, which is placed on the inner wall of the circular tube box of the three-way control valve body, and the cross sections at both ends stop at the two sides of the limit strip.

[0007] The rotary valve is composed of a fan-shaped box cover, left and right baffles, a rotating shaft and a T-shaped handle on the fan-shaped cavity cover. The rotary valve is installed in the circular tube box of the three-way control valve body, and the lower end of the rotating shaft is installed in the shaft groove to keep the rotary valve able to rotate left and right.

The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with embodiments. Example

[0013] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, a three-way control valve for a double-lumen endotracheal tube includes a three-way control valve body 1, a sealing ring 2, a rotary valve 3, a sealing gasket 4 and a shell cover 5.

[0014] The middle part of the three-way control valve body 1 is set as a circular tube box 6, and the bottom of the circular tube box 6 is provided with a right bronchial circular hole 8, a left bronchial circular hole 9, an axial groove 10, two limit strips 11 and a main tracheal circular hole 12 on the side wall; the axial groove 10 is at the center of the bottom of the circular tube box 6; the center of the right bronchial circular hole 8 and the left bronchial circular hole 9 and the center of the main air inlet circular hole 12 are in the same plane to form an isosceles triangle; the right bronchial circular hole 8, the left bronchial circular hole 9 and the main tracheal circular hole 12 are respectively provided with corresponding right air outlet pipe 14, left air outlet pipe 13 and main air inlet pipe 7 outside the circular tube box 6, and the right air outlet pipe 14, the left air outlet pipe 13 and the main air inlet pipe 7 are respectively connected to the right bronchus and the left bronchus of the double-lumen tracheal tube and the Y-shaped threaded tube on the anesthesia machine; the limit strip 11 is located on both sides of the main tracheal circular hole 12; The sealing ring 2 is an open circular tube, which is placed on the inner wall of the circular tube box 6, and the cross sections at both ends stop at the two sides of the limit strip 11.

[0015] The rotary valve 3 is composed of a fan-shaped box cover 15, a right baffle 16, a left baffle 17, a rotating shaft 18 and a T-handle 22. The three directional ends of the T-handle 22 are the right end 19 of the T-handle, the rear end 20 of the T-handle and the left end 21 of the T-handle. The rotary valve 3 is installed in the circular tube box 6, and the protruding part of the lower end of the rotating shaft 18 is installed in the shaft groove 10 to keep the rotary valve 3 able to rotate left and right in the circular tube box 6.

[0016] The sealing gasket 4 is placed on the upper ends of the circular tube box 6 and the rotary valve 3. The shell cover 5 is placed on the sealing gasket 4, and its lower end is sleeved outside the circular tube box 6 and fixed.

[0017] Working principle: The three-way control valve of the double-lumen endotracheal tube is composed of a three-way control valve body 1, a sealing ring 2, a rotating valve 3, a sealing gasket 4 and a shell cover 5. When the patient is intubated with a double-lumen endotracheal tube, the end of the main air inlet pipe 7 is connected to the Y-shaped threaded pipe interface on the anesthesia, and the ends of the right air outlet pipe 14 and the left air outlet pipe 13 are respectively connected to the left and right bronchial interfaces of the double-lumen endotracheal tube. When the patient needs to perform bilateral lung ventilation, the rear end 20 of the T-handle on the rotary valve 3 is aligned with the main airway 7. At this time, the right bronchial circular hole 8, the left bronchial circular hole 9 and the main airway circular hole 12 are all in the lumen formed by the rotary valve 3 and the round tube box 6 and are interconnected, so that the patient's bilateral lung ventilation can be achieved; if the patient needs to perform right lung ventilation alone, the left end 21 of the T-handle is aligned with the main airway 7. At this time, the right bronchial circular hole 8 and the main airway circular hole 12 are all in the lumen formed by the rotary valve 3 and the round tube box 6 and are interconnected, and the left bronchial circular hole 12 is The circular hole 9 of the tube is connected to the air outside the fan-shaped cavity, so that the right lung can be ventilated normally while the left lung stops. When the patient needs to suction sputum or secretions, suction can be performed through the left bronchial circular hole 9; similarly, if the patient needs to ventilate the left lung alone, the right end 19 of the T-shaped handle is aligned with the main airway 7. At this time, the left bronchial circular hole 9 and the main tracheal circular hole 12 are both in the tube cavity formed by the rotary valve 3 and the circular tube box 6 and are interconnected, so that the left lung can be ventilated normally while the right lung stops. When the patient needs to suction sputum or secretions, suction can be performed through the right bronchial circular hole 8.
