Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of foldable storage boxes for sputum specimens, and specifically provides a foldable storage box for sputum specimens. Background Art
[0002] Tuberculosis is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection and remains an important disease threatening human health and a major public health problem to date.
[0003] However, the WHO proposes in its tuberculosis guidelines that sputum specimens should be collected in a dedicated place. Currently, there is a general lack of a fixed place for collecting patients' sputum in respiratory infectious disease hospitals (including outpatient and emergency departments and wards).
[0004] When existing patients leave sputum specimens, since the space cannot be closed as much as possible, there is still a risk of respiratory droplet and aerosol transmission, which is not conducive to the infection control of respiratory infectious diseases such as pulmonary tuberculosis. Moreover, multiple storage boxes are needed during the sputum specimen sampling process. A large number of storage boxes piled up on the trolley are prone to falling, exposing the sputum specimens, which may infect the surrounding pedestrians and pose a safety hazard. In addition, the storage boxes require a large amount of space when stored, and the space storage is unreasonable. There may already be technical solutions to solve the above technical problems. In view of this, this case wants to provide a replacement or alternative technical solution. Summary of the Invention

[0021] Those skilled in the art connect all the electrical components in this case to their adapted power sources through wires, and a suitable controller should be selected according to the actual situation to meet the control requirements. For the specific connection and control sequence, reference should be made to the sequence of the electrical components working successively in the following working principle to complete the electrical connection. The detailed connection means are well-known techniques in the art. The following mainly introduces the working principle and process, and will not explain the electrical control.
[0022] All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0023] Embodiment: Refer to Figures 1-3 , a foldable storage box for storing sputum specimens, including two storage box bodies 1, a link part 2 is assembled between the two storage box bodies 1, a shutter 3 is movably assembled on each storage box body 1, two elastic components 4 are respectively assembled in each storage box body 1, a bearing plate 5 is assembled on each two elastic components 4, four card slots are respectively opened on each bearing plate 5, an auxiliary box 6 is respectively inserted in each card slot, a buckle cover 7 is respectively buckled on each auxiliary box 6; a label slot 8 is respectively assembled on each buckle cover 7; two iron blocks 9 are embedded on the lower wall of one storage box body 1, two magnetic attraction structures 10 are embedded on the lower wall of the other storage box body 1, and the two magnetic attraction structures 10 are matched with the two iron blocks 9; two handles 11 are assembled on the rear walls of the two storage box bodies 1; a rubber layer 12 is respectively assembled on the lower wall of each shutter 3; a buckle ring 13 is respectively assembled on the side wall of each shutter 3, a clamping component 14 is movably assembled on the side wall of each storage box body 1, and a knob 15 is respectively assembled on the side wall of each clamping component 14; the link part 2 is a hinge; Specifically, the elastic component 4 is a spring; Specifically, the magnetic attraction structure 10 is a magnet; Specifically, the clamping component 14 is a claw; The specific working principle is as follows: The staff uses the handle 11 installed on the storage box body 1 to carry and move it. After moving to the sampling area, the staff holds the two storage box bodies 1 and bends them to both sides to separate the magnetic attraction structure 10 from the iron block 9. The magnetic attraction structure 10 cooperates with the iron block 9 to increase the stability when folding. After flattening, it is placed on the desktop. The staff twists the knob 15 installed on the clamping component 14 to rotate the clamping component 14 away from the buckle 13. The elastic component 4 installed in the storage box body 1 loses the limiting extrusion of the baffle door 3, and the supporting plate 5 installed thereon is pushed up to a set height, so that the auxiliary box 6 inserted on the supporting plate 5 extends out of the storage box body 1 to a certain height. The raised auxiliary box 6 is convenient for the staff to take out. The staff can open the baffle door 3 to take out the auxiliary box 6. The buckle cover 7 on the box 6 starts to sample the sputum specimen. After the sampling is completed, the buckle cover 7 is buckled back into the auxiliary box 6, and then the auxiliary box 6 with the sputum specimen is inserted into the card slot on the carrying plate 5, and the above steps are repeated to continue sampling. After the sampling is completed, the staff presses down the baffle door 3, and the baffle door 3 squeezes the auxiliary box 6 through the rubber layer 12. The rubber layer 12 protects the auxiliary box 6. During the pressing process of the baffle door 3, the elastic component 4 contracts, and the staff turns the knob 15 to insert the clamping component 14 into the buckle ring 13. After the assembly is completed, the staff folds the two storage box main bodies 1 through the link 2 so that the magnetic suction structure 10 is adsorbed on the iron block 9 to increase the stability of the folding. After the folding is completed, the staff can move the handle 11 by hand, and the label slot 8 on the buckle cover 7 is convenient for sample remarks.
[0024] 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.
