Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of sputum collection, in particular to a sputum collection device for elderly patients. Background Art

[0002] As people age, their body functions decline. Respiratory diseases such as respiratory system inflammation are common among the elderly, and coughing up sputum is more common. However, due to their old age, bedridden elderly people are not only inconvenient to get up when spitting, but are also prone to falling out of bed. At the same time, sputum will contaminate the sheets or the ground, causing cross-infection. If you spit anywhere, it will cause environmental pollution and affect the mood of people around you. Therefore, when providing elderly care, sputum collection devices are used to facilitate the spitting of the elderly.

[0003] At present, the sputum collection devices for elderly patients on the market have large openings, which causes the germs in the sputum to spread into the air. When cleaning, the sputum is easily contaminated on the cleaning tools, making it extremely difficult to deal with the germs therein. Moreover, when the elderly lie on the nursing bed, they need to get up every time they spit, which is troublesome. In the related technology, a hose, a mouthpiece, a sleeve, a first spring, a splint, and a plastic bottle are provided. The patient can cooperate with the splint through the elastic force of the first spring, thereby facilitating the hose to be stabilized at the bedside. When the patient needs to spit, the sputum can be directly spit into the hose through the use of the mouthpiece, which tries to avoid the situation where the patient needs to get up many times. The inner wall of the hose can be lubricated by a plastic bottle filled with lubricating oil, which increases the speed at which the sputum slides down in the hose to a certain extent. However, in actual use, its function is relatively single, and the operation method is relatively cumbersome, and the air outlet cannot be blocked in time, which still causes the spread of germs in the sputum and is inconvenient to use.

[0039] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. 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 creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0040] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present application are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components in a certain specific posture. If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0041] In this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connection", "fixation", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixation" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0042] In addition, in this application, descriptions such as "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but they must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in this field to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this application.

[0043] Because respiratory diseases such as respiratory system inflammation are common among the elderly, coughing and sputum symptoms are more common. When spitting, they need to stand up and spit the sputum into a sputum collection device.

[0044] In the related art, a hose, a mouthpiece, a sleeve, a first spring, a splint, and a plastic bottle are provided. The patient can use the elastic force of the first spring to cooperate with the splint, thereby facilitating the stable placement of the hose at the bedside. When the patient needs to spit, the sputum can be directly spit into the hose through the mouthpiece, thus avoiding the situation where the patient needs to get up many times. The inner wall of the hose can be lubricated by a plastic bottle filled with lubricating oil. However, in actual use, its function is relatively single, and the operation method is relatively cumbersome. In addition, the air outlet cannot be sealed in time, which will still lead to the spread of bacteria in the sputum, making it inconvenient to use.

[0045] In order to solve the problems in the related art to a certain extent, the embodiment of the present application provides a sputum collection device for elderly patients. When it is needed, the mounting base 14 only needs to be fixed to the bedside by bolts, and the ring body 13 is clamped on the mounting base 14. When spitting is needed, the ring body 13 is picked up, aligned with the cover body 15, and the sputum is spit out. It is more convenient and quick, and improves the convenience of the device.

[0046] The present application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0047] Combination Figure 1-Figure 5The embodiment of the present application provides a sputum collection device for elderly patients, comprising: a base 10, a barrel body 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 10, a connecting pipe 12 is arranged on the outside of the barrel body 11, a ring body 13 is fixedly connected to the outside of the connecting pipe 12, a cover body 15 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting pipe 12, a mounting seat 14 is sleeved on the outside of the ring body 13, the mounting seat 14 is fixedly installed at the bedside, a pressure switch 131 is arranged on the outside of the ring body 13, a box body 20 is fixedly connected to the outside of the barrel body 11, a vacuum pump 21 is installed on one of the box bodies 20, and the other box body 20 is connected to the connecting pipe 12, a tube body 22 is arranged on one side of the box body 20, a box body 23 is fixedly connected to the outside of the barrel body 11, an adsorption plate 24 is arranged in the box body 23, and the vacuum pump 21 outputs The air port is fixedly connected to one end of the tube body 22, and a round-headed rod 30 is slidably connected to the box body 23. One end of the round-headed rod 30 is inserted into the adsorption plate 24. A spring 31 is sleeved on the outside of the round-headed rod 30, and the round-headed rod 30 is connected to the box body 23 through the spring 31. An electric push rod 40 is fixedly connected to the base 10, and a plate body 1 41 is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod 40. A rod body 1 42 is fixedly connected to the top of the plate body 1 41. A push plate 43 is sleeved on the outside of the barrel body 11, and the top of the rod body 1 42 is fixedly connected to the push plate 43. A plate body 2 44 is slidably connected to the box body 20, and the top of the push plate 43 is tightly attached to the bottom of the plate body 2 44. An inclined surface 50 is provided on the round-headed rod 30, and a rod body 3 51 is fixedly connected to the top of the push plate 43.

[0048] After placing the base 10 at the designated position and fixing the mounting seat 14 on one side of the bed, the ring body 13 is plugged into the mounting seat 14 to complete the installation. Then, when the patient needs to spit, the ring body 13 is held by hand, and after the ring body 13 is removed from the mounting seat 14, the cover body 15 is aligned with the mouth, and after the finger touches the pressure switch 131, the vacuum pump 21 is turned on, and then the box body 20 and the barrel body 11 are evacuated to a negative pressure state, and suction is applied to the cover body 15 through the connecting pipe 12, and then the sputum is directly spit into the cover body 15, and the sputum is sucked by the negative pressure. , the sputum is sucked into the barrel body 11, the sputum collection process is completed, and the air discharged from the box body 20 enters the box body 23 through the tube body 22, and is adsorbed and purified by the adsorption plate 24 in the box body 23, and then discharged out of the box body 23. Finally, by turning on the electric push rod 40, its output end pushes the plate body 1 41, the rod body 1 42 and the push plate 43 to slide upward, so that the push plate 43 pushes multiple plate bodies 2 44 to insert into the box body 1 20, and the box body 1 20 is blocked, so that the box body 1 20 is separated from the barrel body 11, and the sealing and air leakage protection function is played;

[0049] When it is not necessary to collect sputum, pull the round head rod 30 outwards. After it slides out from one side of the adsorption plate 24, pull the spring 31, and then pull the adsorption plate 24 outwards. After the adsorption plate 24 slides out of the second box body 23, the disassembly of the adsorption plate 24 is completed. After cleaning or replacing the adsorption plate 24, repeat the above steps for installation;

[0050] When the electric push rod 40 is turned on, when the push plate 43 pushes the second plate body 44 upwards, the push plate 43 pushes the third rod body 51. After the third rod body 51 contacts the inclined surface 50 on the round head rod 30, it pushes the inclined surface 50 and the round head rod 30 to slide outwards, realizing the blocking of the first box body 20 by the second plate body 44 while canceling the fixation of the adsorption plate 24, facilitating subsequent installation and disassembly.

[0051] Specifically, the adsorption plate 24 is an activated carbon adsorption plate, which belongs to the prior art, so it will not be elaborated too much here.

[0052] Specifically, before collecting sputum, inject lubricating oil into the cover body 15 to lubricate the cover body 15 and the connecting pipe 12, facilitating subsequent sputum collection.

[0053] Specifically, a power module and a relay are arranged in the base 10. After directly detecting the pressure through the pressure switch 131 and outputting a switch signal, the on-off of the power supply of the vacuum pump 21 is controlled by the relay, which belongs to the prior art, so it is not shown in the figure.

[0054] In some embodiments, a filter screen 231 is arranged on one side of the second box body 23, and the second box body 23 is protected against dust through the filter screen 231.

[0055] In some embodiments, a plurality of first rod bodies 42 are arranged to make the up-and-down sliding of the push plate 43 more stable.

[0056] In some embodiments, the third rod body 51 is an L-shaped rod body, which is convenient for the third rod body 51 to push the round head rod 30.

[0057] In some embodiments, a bucket cover 60 is inserted into the bucket body 11, and an inner bucket 61 is arranged in the bucket body 11.

[0058] When it is necessary to process the collected sputum, pull the bucket cover 60 to separate it from the bucket body 11, and then take out the inner bucket 61 from the bucket body 11.

[0059] In some embodiments, a third plate body 62 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the inner bucket 61. By directly pulling the third plate body 62, the third plate body 62 drives the inner bucket 61 to slide out of the bucket body 11, facilitating the disassembly of the inner bucket 61.

[0060] In some embodiments, a protrusion is provided at the bottom of the inner barrel 61, and a groove is opened at the inner bottom of the barrel body 11. After the inner barrel 61 is docked with the barrel body 11, the protrusion is inserted into the groove to facilitate the connection between the inner barrel 61 and the box body 20.

[0061] In some embodiments, a rod body 470 is fixedly connected to the top of the push plate 43, a plate body 471 is fixedly connected to the top of the rod body 470, and a plate body 572 is slidably connected to the plate body 471.

[0062] When the electric push rod 40 is turned on, the push plate 43 pushes the rod body 4 70 to slide upward or downward, while driving the plate body 4 71 and the plate body 5 72 to slide up and down, so that after the push plate 43 is away from the plate body 2 44, the plate body 5 72 is tightly pressed against the barrel cover 60, fixing the upper and lower positions of the barrel cover 60. Conversely, after the push plate 43 pushes the plate body 2 44 to slide into the box body 1 20, the plate body 4 71 and the plate body 5 72 are away from the barrel cover 60, and finally the plate body 5 72 is pushed to slide on the plate body 4 71, without affecting the normal disassembly of the barrel cover 60.

[0063] In some embodiments, a U-shaped slide rail is provided on the plate body four 71 to prevent the plate body five 72 from detaching from the plate body four 71.

[0064] In some embodiments, the height of the second plate 44 is greater than the height of the first box 20 to prevent the second plate 44 from being separated from the first box 20.

[0065] In the description of this specification, the description with reference to the terms "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "example", "specific example", "some examples", etc. means that the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described in conjunction with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present application. In this specification, the schematic representations of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described may be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner. In addition, those skilled in the art may combine and combine the different embodiments or examples described in this specification.

[0066] In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but they must be based on the fact that they can be implemented by ordinary technicians in this field. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this application.

[0067] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
