[0078] In this embodiment, the liquid storage component 16 is detachably connected to the conduction component 17. After cleaning and care, the liquid storage component 16 can be removed, and a new liquid storage component 16 can be installed as needed for cleaning and care next time. The detachable connection allows the liquid storage component 16 to be quickly replaced, which is convenient for users to use and also convenient for replacing and using external liquid medicines, making the product more practical.

[0079] Since the cavity is relatively sensitive, in order to avoid discomfort caused by the low temperature of the liquid used to clean the cavity, the nursing device 1 further includes a heating component 18, which is electrically connected to the circuit board 151 and is mounted on the liquid storage component 16. Specifically, the heating component 18 is mounted on the side of the conductive member 171 facing the liquid storage component 16. When the liquid storage component 16 is mounted on the conductive member 171, the heating component 18 penetrates into the liquid storage component 16 and can heat the liquid in the liquid storage component 16. The heating component 18 includes a heating element, which can be a heating structure such as a heating rod or a heating sheet.

[0080] The control component 15 also includes a battery 155 and a charging port 156 . Both the battery 155 and the charging port 156 are electrically connected to the circuit board 151 for providing electrical energy to the care component 12 . The charging port 156 is used to connect to an external power source to charge the battery 155 .

[0081] In this embodiment, the liquid storage component 16, the heating component 18, the conductive component 17 and the battery 155 are arranged at the other end of the head-mounted structure 2, and are arranged at both ends of the head-mounted structure 2 together with other parts such as the visual component 11.

[0082] Continue reading Figure 3 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the conduction component 17 further includes a first connecting tube 175 and a second connecting tube 176. The first connecting tube 175 connects the fourth delivery tube 172 and the first delivery tube 1217. The first connecting tube 175 also connects the fifth delivery tube 173 and the first delivery tube 1217. The second connecting tube 176 connects the sixth delivery tube 174 and the third delivery tube 1233. The head-mounted structure 2 includes a connecting shell 21 and a sheath 22 sleeved outside the connecting shell 21. The connecting shell 21 is a hollow structure, and the first connecting tube 175 and the second connecting tube 176 are inserted therein.

[0083] Specifically, see Fig.14 In this embodiment, the head-mounted structure 2 also includes a fixing part 23 arranged in the connecting shell 21, and the fixing part 23 is fixedly connected to the connecting shell 21 by screws. The fixing part 23 has a cavity for the first connecting tube 175 and the second connecting tube 176 to pass through. Specifically, the conductive wires connecting the components at both ends of the head-mounted structure 2 can also be passed through the cavity.

[0084] In order to prevent the cavity from being damaged due to excessively rapid water flow during the cleaning and care process, the fixing member 23 includes a first curved portion 231 and a second curved portion 232, wherein the first curved portion 231 connects the second curved portion 232 to form an S-shaped structure, and the first connecting tube 175 and the second connecting tube 176 are hoses. When the first connecting tube 175 and the second connecting tube 176 are inserted into the first curved portion 231 and the second curved portion 232, the first connecting tube 175 and the second connecting tube 176 present an S-shaped shape, so that when liquid or gas flows through, the curved portion has an S-shaped effect on the flow of liquid or gas. The speed causes a certain deviation or resistance, which reduces the flow rate. Therefore, when the user is cleaning or drying, the flow rate of the liquid or gas is slowed down, and it flows into the cavity more gently, thereby avoiding damage to the cavity and providing a better user experience. When the user wears the visual ear canal cleaning and care device 100, due to the different head sizes of the users, the size of the head-mounted structure 2 needs to be adjusted, which will cause the pipeline to stretch. Such a design can also ensure that the first connecting tube 175 and the second connecting tube 176 have a certain buffer length when stretched, thereby avoiding product damage caused by being pulled and broken.

[0085] On the other hand, see Fig.15The present application also provides an endoscope 200, comprising the aforementioned nursing device 1. By adopting the aforementioned nursing device 1, the endoscope 200 also has the beneficial effects of the aforementioned nursing device 1.
