Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to a multi-angle perineal self-examination mirror with illumination function. Background Technology
[0002] During special examinations such as childbirth, postpartum pelvic floor examination, and perineal wound examination, patients need to understand their own perineal condition to promote communication between doctors and nurses, increase cooperation between doctors and nurses, and thus improve satisfaction.
[0003] Due to the characteristics of human anatomy, patients in the lithotomy or squatting positions are usually unable to observe their perineum themselves. Perineal examinations are typically performed by medical staff who describe the findings to the patient. A surgical light is usually required to assist with the perineal examination, as patients cannot use it for self-examination.
[0004] Currently, when patients perform perineal self-examinations, medical staff usually hold a regular mirror and adjust its position for easy observation. However, the mirror can block light and needs to be held by the medical staff. When other instruments such as forceps are needed for perineal examinations, it is difficult for one medical staff member to perform them and multiple people are required. When the patient is in the lithotomy position or squatting position, there is little space for medical staff to operate, and multiple people do not have enough space to operate. Summary of the Invention
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a multi-angle perineal self-examination mirror with illumination function, so that patients can observe the condition of their perineum themselves in the lithotomy position or squatting position.

Detailed Implementation
[0032] The embodiments of the technical solution of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical solution of the present invention and are therefore intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0033] It should be noted that, unless otherwise stated, the technical or scientific terms used in this application should have the ordinary meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains.
[0034] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment of the invention provides a multi-angle perineal self-examination mirror with illumination function, including a fixing member 100, a universal adjustment bracket 200, and a mirror body 300.
[0035] The fastener 100 is used to fix it to the mounting base, which can be an inspection bed or the ground.
[0036] The fixed end of the universal adjustment bracket 200 is fixed to the fixing member 100.
[0037] The mirror body 300 is fixed to the free end of the universal adjustment bracket 200. The front of the mirror body 300 is provided with a mirror surface 310 and a fill light 320 surrounding the mirror surface 310.
[0038] The multi-angle perineal self-examination mirror with illumination function provided by this invention can be used by patients to observe the perineum themselves in the lithotomy position or squatting position. During self-examination in the lithotomy position, the self-examination mirror can be fixed to the edge of the gynecological examination bed via the fixing element 100 (e.g., ...). Figure 2 As shown), when performing a self-inspection in a squatting position, the fixing part 100 of the self-inspection mirror can be placed on the ground or bed surface (e.g., Figure 3As shown, this device eliminates the need for handheld operation, freeing up more operating space for medical staff. During self-examination, the angle and position of the self-examination mirror can be adjusted using the universal adjustable bracket 200, allowing the patient's line of sight to be reflected onto the perineum through the mirror 310, thus enabling self-observation of the perineum. Simultaneously, the supplementary lighting 320 around the mirror 310 provides illumination for perineal observation, allowing the patient to more clearly observe their own condition. In summary, this invention facilitates self-observation of the perineum by patients in the lithotomy or squatting position.
[0039] In some embodiments, the fastener 100 specifically includes a support portion 110 and a clamping portion 120 mounted on the support portion 110, wherein a clamping opening is formed between the front portion of the support portion 110 and the clamping portion 120, which can clamp and fix the fastener to the edge of the examination bed.
[0040] The aforementioned fastener 100 can not only be clamped and fixed to the edge of the gynecological examination bed through the clamp, but can also be directly supported on the ground through the support part 110, thus meeting the installation needs of the self-examination mirror in different usage scenarios.
[0041] In some embodiments, the support portion 110 is provided with a track 111 extending in the front-rear direction, and a slider 112 is mounted on the track 111.
[0042] Specifically, the track 111 includes a groove 1111 formed on the support 110, and the slider 112 is adapted to the groove 1111.
[0043] More specifically, the slide groove 1111 is a through groove that penetrates the upper and lower surfaces of the support part 110. The two side walls of the slide groove 1111 are provided with protruding rails 1112 extending in the front-back direction. The two sides of the slider 112 are provided with limiting grooves that are adapted to the protruding rails 1112 on the corresponding sides.
[0044] Reference Figure 1 The universal adjustment bracket 200 specifically includes a first horizontal rotating rod 210, a second horizontal rotating rod 220, a first vertical rotating rod 230, and a second vertical rotating rod 240.
[0045] The first horizontal rotating rod 210 is mounted on the slider 112 with a certain damping horizontal rotation at its head end. The height of the first horizontal rotating rod 210 is located between the support part 110 and the clamping part 120.
[0046] The first end of the second horizontal rotating rod 220 is horizontally rotatably mounted at the end of the first horizontal rotating rod 210 with a certain damping. The height of the second horizontal rotating rod 220 is above the clamping part 120. A horizontal rotating part 250 is horizontally rotatably mounted on the upper side of the end of the second horizontal rotating rod 220 with a certain damping.
[0047] The first vertical rotating rod 230 is mounted on the upper end of the horizontal rotating component 250 with a certain damping vertical rotation.
[0048] The first end of the second vertical rotating rod 240 is mounted vertically with a certain damping at the end of the first vertical rotating rod 230, and the mirror body 300 is mounted vertically with a certain damping at the end of the second vertical rotating rod 240.
[0049] like Figure 2 As shown, during self-examination in the lithotomy position, the fixing member 100 is clamped and fixed on the side edge of the gynecological examination bed, and the slider 112 slides to the rear end of the slide groove 1111. At this time, by rotating the first horizontal rotating rod 210 and the second horizontal rotating rod 220 in the horizontal direction, the position of the endoscope 300 in the front-back and left-right directions can be adjusted. By rotating the first vertical rotating rod 230 and the second vertical rotating rod 240 in the vertical direction, the position of the endoscope 300 in the front-back and up-down directions can be adjusted. By rotating the endoscope 300 in the vertical direction, the pitch angle of the endoscope 300 can be adjusted. In this way, by adjusting the angle and position of the self-examination endoscope through the universal adjustment bracket 200, the patient's line of sight can be reflected to the patient's perineum through the mirror 310, thus realizing self-examination in the lithotomy position.
[0050] like Figure 3 As shown, during squatting self-examination, the support part 110 of the fixing part 100 is supported on the ground or bed surface. The first horizontal rotating rod 210 and the second horizontal rotating rod 220 are rotated and folded in the front-back direction. At the same time, the first horizontal rotating rod 210 pushes the slider 112 to slide to the front end of the slide groove 1111. At this time, the first horizontal rotating rod 210 extends between the support part 110 and the clamping part 120, and the second horizontal rotating rod 220 is located directly above the clamping part 120. This not only reduces the overall volume and occupies less space during use, but also ensures that the center of gravity of the entire universal adjustment bracket 200 and the mirror body 300 is directly above the fixing part 100, ensuring that the self-examination mirror can be stably supported on the ground and is not easy to tip over. During squatting self-examination, the patient squats directly in front of the self-examination mirror and adjusts the height and angle of the self-examination mirror by using the first vertical rotating rod 230, the second vertical rotating rod 240 and the mirror body 300 to achieve squatting self-examination.
[0051] like Figure 4 As shown, when the self-checking mirror is not in use, the first horizontal rotating rod 210 can be folded and stored between the support part 110 and the clamping part 120, and the second horizontal rotating rod 220, the first vertical rotating rod 230, the second vertical rotating rod 240 and the mirror body 300 can be folded and stored above the clamping part 120, which can reduce its storage space.
[0052] In some embodiments, the support portion 110 is provided with first connecting ears 113 on both the left and right sides of the middle portion, and the clamping portion 120 is provided with second connecting ears 121 on both the left and right sides of the middle portion. Each first connecting ear 113 corresponds to each second connecting ear 121 and is connected by a hinge. The rear portion of the clamping portion 120 and the support portion 110 are provided with two elastic support members 130 located on both sides of the track 111. The elastic support member 130 can be a spring or a bow-shaped spring sheet.
[0053] With the above design, the elastic support 130 can provide clamping elasticity for the support part 110 and the clamping part 120, while a channel extending and penetrating in the front-back direction is formed between the support part 110 and the clamping part 120, which will not obstruct the first horizontal rotating rod 210 from extending between the support part 110 and the clamping part 120.
[0054] Specifically, the end of the first horizontal rotating rod 210 is provided with an upwardly protruding first boss 211, and the beginning of the second horizontal rotating rod 220 is provided with a downwardly protruding second boss 221. The first boss 211 and the second boss 221 are coaxially rotatably connected, so that a gap for the clamping part 120 to extend into can be formed between the first horizontal rotating rod 210 and the second horizontal rotating rod 220.
[0055] Specifically, the upper end of the horizontal rotating component 250 is provided with a mounting groove 251, the first vertical rotating rod 230 is a single rod, the second vertical rotating rod 240 is two rods, and a connecting seat 330 is provided at the center of the back of the mirror body 300. The first end of the single rod of the first vertical rotating rod 230 is adapted to the mounting groove 251 and is hinged to the horizontal rotating component 250 by a locking bolt. The first ends of the two rods of the second vertical rotating rod 240 are clamped on both sides of the end of the single rod of the first vertical rotating rod 230 and are hinged to the end of the single rod of the first vertical rotating rod 230 by a locking bolt. The ends of the two rods of the second vertical rotating rod 240 are clamped on both sides of the connecting seat 330 and are hinged to the connecting seat 330 by a locking bolt.
[0056] The rotation between the first horizontal rotating rod 210 and the slider 112, between the second horizontal rotating rod 220 and the first vertical rotating rod 230, between the second horizontal rotating rod 220 and the horizontal rotating component 250, between the first vertical rotating rod 230 and the horizontal rotating component 250, between the second vertical rotating rod 240 and the first vertical rotating rod 230, and between the mirror body 300 and the second vertical rotating rod 240 has a certain damping, and can maintain a specific position after rotation. The damping between the first vertical rotating rod 230 and the horizontal rotating component 250, between the second vertical rotating rod 240 and the first vertical rotating rod 230, and between the mirror body 300 and the second vertical rotating rod 240 needs to withstand the self-weight of the structure. The damping at each connection point can be increased by tightening the locking bolts to meet the load-bearing requirements.
[0057] In some embodiments, the mirror 310 is an image magnifying mirror 310. When a patient observes the perineum through this self-examination mirror, the distance between the perineum and the patient's eyes is about 1 meter, making it difficult to observe in detail. If there are delicate areas that need to be observed, it is difficult for patients in the lithotomy position or squatting position to observe. The mirror 310 is an image magnifying mirror 310, which can expose the observation area more clearly and facilitate self-examination.
[0058] It should be noted that the image magnifying mirror 310 has many applications, such as magnifying makeup mirrors. Its structure and principle are well-known technologies and will not be elaborated here.
[0059] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention, and they should all be covered within the scope of the claims and specification of the present invention.
