[0002] After giving birth, there are a lot of liquid stains on the newborn's body. Nurses need to clean the newborn's body frequently to remove bacteria and dust. Most of the existing newborns use a bathtub to wash their bodies. When nurses wash the newborn's body, the newborn feels insecure because it is separated from the mother's uterine environment. The newborn will cry during the bath and needs to be comforted by the nurse, which affects the nurse's cleaning work and prolongs the cleaning time.

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, the prior art CN115644721B discloses a gynecological newborn bathing device, including a bathtub, the lower side wall of the bathtub is fixedly connected with a mounting cylinder, the inner wall of the mounting cylinder is rotatably connected with a threaded cylinder with opposite threads on the left and right sides of the inner wall, the lower side wall of the mounting cylinder is fixedly connected with a motor, and also includes a transmission belt to drive a massage roller to roll for rolling massage of the newborn. This solution uses a motor to push a wrapping sheet to wrap the newborn, so that when the newborn is bathed, the newborn can be placed in the wrapping sheet for wrapping, so that the wrapping sheet simulates the environment in the uterus, so that the newborn feels safe when bathing, reduces crying, and is convenient for nurses to use both hands to clean the newborn.

[0004] Although the above solution can achieve the purpose of soothing the newborn, it uses electrical components such as motors and transmission belts, which have the risk of leakage. At the same time, the solution has a complex structure and is inconvenient to use. Summary of the invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a gynecological newborn bathing device to solve the problems in the above background technology that the existing newborn bathing devices use electrical components with leakage hazards and complex structures.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, a basic solution adopted by the present invention is: a gynecological and obstetric newborn bathing device, comprising a bathtub and an auxiliary system arranged in the bathtub, the auxiliary system comprising an elastic support member, a support plate arranged on the elastic support member and a touch member arranged on the support plate, the elastic support member comprises an outer cylinder, an inner rod and an elastic member, the outer cylinder and the inner rod are coaxially and vertically arranged, the lower end of the outer cylinder is connected to the bottom wall of the bathtub, the upper end of the outer cylinder is open, the lower end of the inner rod extends into the outer cylinder and is sealed and slidably connected to the inner wall of the outer cylinder, the upper end of the inner rod extends upward out of the outer cylinder, the elastic member is arranged in the lower inner cavity of the outer cylinder, and the elastic force of the elastic member is exerted along the outer The axial direction of the cylinder points to the inner rod, and a channel one is vertically arranged in the inner rod. The lower end of the channel one is connected to the lower inner cavity of the outer cylinder, and the upper end of the channel one passes through the upper end surface of the inner rod upward. The support plate is fixedly connected to the upper end of the inner rod for placing a newborn. The touch member includes a plurality of arc-shaped elastic air bags dispersedly fixed at the edge of the support plate, and a plurality of channels two corresponding to the arc-shaped elastic air bags are arranged in the support plate.

[0037] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solution of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the specific embodiments of the present application and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0038] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used in the specification of the present invention herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0039] A gynecological newborn bathing device according to this embodiment, such as Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, it includes a bathtub 10, an auxiliary system and a floating control mechanism arranged in the bathtub 10, wherein the auxiliary system includes an elastic support member, a support plate 30 arranged on the elastic support member, and a touch member arranged on the support plate 30. A drainage hole is arranged at the bottom of the bathtub 10, and a drainage valve 101 for closing or opening the drainage hole is arranged at the drainage hole.

[0040] like Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the elastic support member includes an outer cylinder 201, an inner rod 202 and an elastic member. The outer cylinder 201 and the inner rod 202 are coaxially arranged vertically. The lower end of the outer cylinder 201 is connected to the bottom wall of the bathtub 10. The upper end of the outer cylinder 201 is open. The lower end of the inner rod 202 extends into the outer cylinder 201 and is sealed and slidably connected with the inner wall of the outer cylinder 201. The upper end of the inner rod 202 extends upward from the outer cylinder 201. The elastic member is arranged in the lower inner cavity of the outer cylinder 201. The elastic force of the elastic member is along the outer cylinder 201. 01 points to the inner rod 202, a channel 2021 is vertically arranged in the inner rod 202, the lower end of the channel 2021 is connected to the lower inner cavity of the outer cylinder 201, and the upper end of the channel 2021 passes through the upper end surface of the inner rod 202 upwards. Specifically, the elastic member in this example includes a spring 203, the spring 203 is vertically arranged, the upper end of the spring 203 is connected to the lower end of the inner rod 202, and the lower end of the spring 203 is connected to the inner bottom wall of the outer cylinder 201. In order to prevent the inner rod 202 from rotating around its own axis when moving up and down, a guide rod 2023 is vertically arranged on the inner rod 202, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the guide rod 2023 is an L-shaped rod including a horizontal portion and a vertical portion, the horizontal portion is located at the upper end of the vertical portion, one end of the horizontal portion is fixedly connected to the upper outer wall of the inner rod 202 so that a gap is left between the vertical portion and the outer wall of the inner rod 202, and a guide slide 2012 that slidably cooperates with the vertical portion of the guide rod 2023 is vertically arranged in the side wall of the outer cylinder 201, and the upper end of the guide slide 2012 upwardly penetrates the upper end surface of the outer cylinder 201. It can be understood that the cooperation between the guide slide 2012 and the vertical portion is only used for sliding guidance of the inner rod 202, and is a non-sealed sliding connection. When the inner rod 202 slides up and down in the guide slide 2012, the gas in the guide slide 2012 can be discharged out of the guide slide 2012 through the gap between the guide rod 2023 and the inner wall of the guide slide 2012.

[0041] The support plate 30 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the inner rod 202 for placing the newborn. The support plate 30 is tilted, and a silicone anti-slip layer is attached to the upper surface of the support plate 30. A baffle 302 is provided at the lower end of the support plate 30 to prevent the newborn from slipping out of the support plate 30. The two side edges of the support plate 30 are arranged as upwardly warped arc edges.

[0042] like Figure 5 , Figure 7As shown, the touch member includes a plurality of arc-shaped elastic airbags 40 dispersedly fixed at the edges of both sides of the support plate 30, and the arc-shaped elastic airbags 40 are made of elastic rubber. The support plate 30 has a plurality of channels 2 301 corresponding to the arc-shaped elastic airbags 40, one end of the channel 2 301 is sealed and connected with the upper end of the channel 1 2021, and the other end of the channel 2 301 is sealed and connected with the inner cavity of the corresponding arc-shaped elastic airbag 40, and when the plurality of arc-shaped elastic airbags 40 are expanded, they can wrap the newborn placed on the support plate 30. Of course, the wrapping described in this embodiment does not mean that the arc-shaped elastic airbags 40 will wrap the newborn completely, but means that the arc-shaped elastic airbags 40 on both sides are inflated and close to and gently press the newborn from both sides.

[0043] like Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, the floating control mechanism includes a buoyancy ring 501 sleeved on the outer wall of the outer cylinder 201, an insertion rod 502 arranged on the buoyancy ring 501 and a fixing block 503 arranged on the inner rod 202. The buoyancy ring 501 is annular and is slidably connected to the outer cylinder 201. In order to prevent the buoyancy ring 501 from rotating around the outer cylinder 201 when sliding up and down, a guide bar 2011 is vertically arranged on the outer wall of the outer cylinder 201, and a vertical slide groove 5011 slidably matched with the guide bar 2011 is arranged on the inner wall of the buoyancy ring 501. The plug rod 502 is vertically arranged, and the lower end of the plug rod 502 is fixedly connected to the buoyancy ring 501. The upper part of the inner rod 202 is provided with an airway 2022 that connects the channel 2021 with the external space of the inner rod 202. The fixing block 503 is arranged at the airway 2022 and is fixedly connected to the inner rod 202. The fixing block 503 is provided with a socket 5031 that cooperates with the plug rod 502. Figure 4 , Figure 6 As shown, the socket 5031 is set as a tapered hole, the upper end of the insertion rod 502 is set as a tapered end that cooperates with the socket 5031, and an airway 2 5032 is set in the fixed block 503, one end of the airway 2 5032 is sealed and connected to the channel 1 2021, and the other end of the airway 2 5032 is connected to the socket 5031.

[0044] When the bathing device of the present invention is used, the drain valve 101 is closed first, and appropriate warm water is placed in the bathtub 10 according to the weight of the newborn. When the newborn needs to be soaked in water and scrubbed and then rinsed, warm water is first poured into the bathtub 10 to a suitable depth, such as Figure 5-Figure 7As shown, under the buoyancy of the water body, the buoyancy ring 501 rises continuously with the rise of the water surface, so that the insertion rod 502 is inserted into the insertion hole 5031 to block the airway 2 5032. When the newborn is placed on the support plate 30, the weight of the newborn causes the support plate 30 to drive the inner rod 202 to slide down and compress the spring 203. At this time, part of the newborn's body is soaked in water, which is convenient for scrubbing the newborn. Since the airway 2 5032 is blocked, when the inner rod 202 moves downward, the gas in the lower inner cavity of the outer tube 201 can only enter the arc-shaped elastic airbags 40 through the channel 1 2021 and then through each channel 2 301, so that each arc-shaped elastic airbag 40 expands and closes to the newborn to wrap the newborn to simulate the environment in the uterus, so that the newborn feels safe when taking a bath and will not cry or move around, which is convenient for the nurse to scrub and clean the newborn's body.

[0045] During the process of scrubbing the newborn, the support plate 30 will float up and down, causing the inner rod 202 to move up and down, so that the air pressure in each arc-shaped elastic airbag 40 will change alternately. The alternating change in the air pressure in the arc-shaped elastic airbag 40 causes the expansion degree of the arc-shaped elastic airbag 40 to also change alternately, thereby achieving massage for the newborn to further relax the newborn.

[0046] When the scrubbing is completed and the newborn needs to be rinsed, the drain valve 101 is opened to drain the water in the bathtub 10 to prevent the water containing dirt from contacting the newborn. After the water is drained, the buoyancy ring 501 drops to make the plug rod 502 disengage from the socket 5031 so that the airway 2 5032 is connected. Under the elastic contraction of the arc-shaped elastic airbags 40 themselves, the gas in each arc-shaped elastic airbag 40 is discharged to the outside of the inner rod 202 through channel 2 301, channel 1 2021, airway 1 2022, and airway 2 5032 in turn. Then, each arc-shaped elastic airbag 40 shrinks close to the surface of the support plate 30 without blocking the newborn, thereby facilitating comprehensive rinsing and cleaning.

[0047] Compared with the prior art, this solution has a simpler structure, does not require the use of power supplies and electrical components, does not cause the risk of electric leakage, is safe to use, and improves the safety of bathing while soothing the newborn.

[0048] The above are only embodiments of the present invention, and the common knowledge such as the known specific structures and characteristics in the scheme are not described in detail here. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, several deformations and improvements can be made without departing from the structure of the present invention, which should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention, and these will not affect the effect of the implementation of the present invention and the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection required by this application shall be based on the content of its claims, and the specific implementation methods and other records in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
