Description

Technical field:

[0001] The invention relates to a medical device, in particular to a disposable video laryngoscope blade with a dirt removal device, which is used for clinically provoking the epiglottis of a patient to expose the glottis, guiding medical staff to accurately perform airway intubation for anesthesia or emergency treatment, and can also be used for intraoral diagnosis and treatment. Background technology:

[0002] In 2001, Canadians invented the video laryngoscope. The technical principle of the video laryngoscope is to set a camera at the front end of the laryngoscope blade, collect airway images through the camera at the front end of the laryngoscope blade, and display the collected airway images on the display above the laryngoscope handle. The operator can directly observe the airway image through the video display. The emergence of the video laryngoscope is a revolutionary technological advancement in airway tools. The video laryngoscope can better reveal the glottis, expand the field of vision of anesthesia and emergency doctors, and thus greatly improve the success rate of tracheal intubation. However, if the camera of the video laryngoscope is blocked by even a drop of blood or oropharyngeal secretions, the video laryngoscope will immediately lose the airway image and delay rescue. At the same time, there are also methods that use the oxygen supply source to increase the oxygen flow rate to directly blow away the dirt on the camera or the disposable laryngoscope blade inner cavity high transparent closed end camera to collect airway images and secretions on the light source passing area. This method of decontamination can only blow away food residues blocking the camera, and is powerless against blood or secretions on the camera. The technical problems of visual laryngoscope decontamination have always plagued the industry, and there is no ideal solution so far.

[0003] Patent CN113440092B previously applied by the applicant discloses a visual laryngoscope with a guide and dirt removal device, which includes a guide tube, a dirt removal rod, a reset spring, a limit collar, etc. Although the guide tube can be used to guide the dirt removal rod to closely fit the end surface of the front camera and light source of the laryngoscope blade or the end surface of the high transparent closed end of the laryngoscope blade inner cavity to remove dirt, it still has the following shortcomings:

[0004] 1. The dirt-removing scraper at the front end of the dirt-removing rod is tightly fitted with the end face of the front camera and light source of the laryngoscope blade or the end face of the highly transparent closed end of the inner cavity of the laryngoscope blade by sliding with the guide tube, and the dirt-removing rod is composed of an integral metal wire. Therefore, when the dirt-removing rod reciprocates and moves in the guide tube, the dirt-removing rod made of the metal wire will be slightly elastically deformed and the dirt-removing scraper at the top of the dirt-removing rod will be displaced forward, so that the rubber hose on the dirt-removing scraper cannot be well fitted with the end face of the front camera and light source of the laryngoscope blade or the end face of the highly transparent closed end of the inner cavity of the laryngoscope blade, resulting in a virtual scraping phenomenon;

[0005] 2. Because the dirt-removing rod is pressed with a rotating downward force, the dirt-removing rod will rotate when it slides back and forth in the guide tube, causing the front end of the dirt-removing rod to rotate outward when the dirt-removing rod is pressed and moved back and forth, causing the dirt-removing rod in the limit cavity to rub against the limit clamp ring or the outer wall of the laryngoscope blade, causing the dirt-removing rod to jam; at the same time, due to the rotation of the dirt-removing rod, the rubber hose on the dirt-removing scraper rod at the top of the dirt-removing rod cannot fit well with the front end camera and light source end face of the laryngoscope blade or the high transparent closed end face of the inner cavity of the laryngoscope blade, resulting in a virtual scraping phenomenon;

[0006] 3. The dirt removal rod is composed of a whole metal wire. The length of the dirt removal rod on the laryngoscope used by adults is generally about 130 mm. In the mass production process, the dirt removal rod needs to be bent at multiple angles in coordination with the curved shape of the curved laryngoscope blade, which makes the processing technology complicated and the precision difficult to control. The mass industrial production has a low yield rate, low production efficiency and high production cost. Summary of the invention:

[0007] In order to make up for the technical defects of the above-mentioned visual laryngoscope, the purpose of the present invention is to add a guiding and cleaning device so that the flexible sleeve or flexible scraper strip on the cleaning rod is tightly fitted with the end face of the highly transparent closed end, and the cleaning rod and the cleaning rod are kept in parallel movement up and down by a reset spring, so that the blood and secretions stuck on the area where the camera or video laryngoscope blade collects airway images can be effectively scraped off, so that the camera can observe and collect airway images in real time, thereby ensuring the normal use of the video laryngoscope.
