Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of urine collection device technology, specifically a fully automatic urine collection device. Background Technology
[0002] In modern medical diagnosis and health monitoring, urinalysis can be used to analyze the composition of a patient's urine in order to quickly detect kidney function, metabolic level, and infection status. This is used for disease screening, health monitoring, and evaluation of treatment effectiveness. To ensure the accuracy of urine composition analysis, it is often necessary to use a urine collection device to collect urine in a standardized manner to ensure the smooth progress of the testing.
[0003] The aforementioned and existing related technologies often have the following drawbacks: During the urine collection process, patients usually need to first collect urine into a urine cup, and then pour the urine into a urine test tube. However, the urine is prone to contamination during the transfer process, and the operation of pouring urine from the urine cup into the urine test tube is inconvenient and prone to spillage, making it difficult to reach the testing standard for urine volume. Therefore, this method of urine collection is not very effective.
[0004] Therefore, we propose a fully automatic urine collection device. Summary of the Invention

An insertion rod 509 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixing plate 508. The insertion rod 509 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting plate 334. A pull plate 510 is fixedly connected to the end of the insertion rod 509 away from the mounting plate 334. A second spring 511 is fitted on the surface of the insertion rod 509. The two ends of the second spring 511 are fixedly connected to the pull plate 510 and the fixing plate 508, respectively. When it is necessary to replace or clean the sealing plate 335, first control the insertion rod 509 away from the mounting plate 334 to release the restriction on the position of the sealing plate 335. Then move the sealing plate 335 away from the mounting plate 334 and move the sealing plate 335 to be installed closer to the mounting plate 334. Use the positioning rod 507 and the positioning plate 506 to achieve the installation positioning. Then fix the position of the sealing plate 335 with the insertion rod 509.
[0040] Working principle: When using the fully automatic urine collector to collect urine from a patient, the patient first activates the first electric telescopic rod 324 via button 306 on the control panel 305, causing it to slide along the inner wall of the first stabilizing plate 325. This, in turn, moves the first arc plate 327 and the second arc plate 328 via the connecting plate 326, square rod 329, and reinforcing plate 331. The movement of the first arc plate 327 and the second arc plate 328 moves the collection hopper 1 away from the collection box 301. Then, the patient grasps the handle 302 to move the collection box 301, adjusting the position of the collection hopper 1. At this point, urine collection can begin. The collected urine enters the collection box 301 through the collection tube 2. After the urine collection is completed, the first plug 313 and the second plug 314 squeeze the first pressure sensor 312, sending a signal to the control panel 305. This causes the control panel 305 to activate the alarm 304. At this time, the patient moves the collection bucket 1 away from themselves using the guide plate 336, and then presses the button 306 on the control panel 305 to activate the first electric telescopic rod 324 and the second electric telescopic rod 332. This causes the collection bucket 1 to move into the collection box 301 and return to its original position. Simultaneously, the second electric telescopic rod 332 activates the second stable... The inner wall of plate 333 slides, controlling the mounting plate 334 to move the sealing plate 335 closer to the collection hopper 1, sealing the collection hopper 1. When collecting urine, medical staff press button 306 on control panel 305 according to the required amount, causing the first motor 320 on the second vertical plate 319 to start, which drives the bidirectional screw 330 to rotate on the surface of the first vertical plate 318. At this time, under the constraint of rectangular ring plate 315, drive plate 321 drives control rod 322 to move, thereby the control plate drives the first plug cylinder 313 and the second plug cylinder 314 to move on the surface of through groove 310 and support block 311 through bent rod 316. The patients move away from each other, releasing the seals of the first plug 313, the second plug 314, and the sealing plate 323 on the outlet pipe 309, allowing urine to flow out of the outlet pipe 309. When the discharge volume is reached, the first motor 320 controls the bidirectional screw 330 to rotate in the opposite direction, thus sealing the outlet pipe 309 with the first plug 313 and the second plug 314. During the movement of the bent rod 316, the limiting plate 317 ensures a stable connection between it and the rectangular ring plate 315. The battery 303 provides power to the fully automatic urine collector, and the scale 308 allows for easy observation of the urine volume in the collection cylinder 307. By setting up the collection device 3, urine can be directly collected into the collection cylinder 307 through the collection hopper 1 and the collection pipe 2 when the patient is collecting urine, minimizing urine spillage, simplifying the urine collection process, and avoiding urine contamination due to urine transfer, thereby ensuring the accuracy of subsequent testing.
[0041] During urine collection, when urine enters the collection tube 2 from the collection hopper 1, it flows towards the first baffle 406 under gravity. At this time, the first clamp 410 and the first baffle 406 squeeze and seal the collection tube 2, causing urine to enter the separation cylinder 402 from the separation tube 401. The first portion of urine is collected and enters the separation cylinder 402. Then, the middle portion of urine flushes the collection tube 2, washing away as much of the residual first portion of urine as possible from the inner wall of the collection tube 2 into the separation cylinder 402. At this time, the weight inside the separation cylinder 402 reaches the set value, and the outer pressure ring 403 squeezes the second pressure sensor 405 on the positioning sleeve 404, causing the second pressure sensor to activate. The device 405 sends a signal to the control panel 305, which then controls the second motor 407 and the third motor 413 to start. These motors drive the first adjusting screw 408 and the second adjusting screw 414 to rotate within the inner walls of the first folding plate 406 and the second folding plate 412, respectively. Under the constraint of the first guide rod 409 and the second guide rod 415, the first clamping plate 410 moves closer to the first top plate 411, and the second clamping plate 416 moves away from the second top plate 417. This causes the second clamping plate 416, in conjunction with the second folding plate 412, to compress and seal the separation tube 401, allowing the midstream urine to pass through the collection tube 2 into the collection cylinder 307, thus completing the collection of the patient's urine. By setting up the separation device 4, the separation tube 401 and the separation cylinder 402 can be used to independently store the initial portion of the patient's urine, achieving separation between the initial and midstream urine. This ensures the accuracy of subsequent test results and facilitates urine collection for the patient.
[0042] When it is necessary to replace the collection tube 2 and the retention cylinder 307, the control moving plate 504 drives the limiting pressure rod 505 to move away from the rectangular ring plate 315, releasing the restriction on the position of the rectangular ring plate 315 and the retention cylinder 307. The retention cylinder 307 is then moved, causing the first plug cylinder 313 and the second plug cylinder 314 to move away from the support block 311 in the through groove 310. Then, the retention cylinder 307 is moved, causing the bent rod 316 to move away from the control rod 322. The second arc plate 328 is then moved away from the first arc plate 327, releasing the restriction on the position of the collection tube 2. The retention cylinder 307 and the collection tube 2 are moved away from the retention box 301. Then, the collection tube 2 and the retention cylinder 307 to be replaced are moved closer to the first arc plate 327 and the support block 311, respectively. The moving plate 504 and the second arc plate 328 are released, and the first spring 503 and the third spring 512 are activated. Under the action of elastic force, slider 501 slides on the surface of fixed rod 502, and second arc plate 328 slides on the surface of square rod 329, causing moving plate 504 to drive limiting pressure rod 505 to move closer to rectangular ring plate 315. Second arc plate 328 squeezes collection tube 2 so that it is close to first arc plate 327, completing the replacement of collection tube 2 and collection tube 307. Then pull plate 510, causing insertion rod 509 to slide on the inner wall of fixed plate 508, so that insertion rod 509 moves away from mounting plate 334. Then move sealing plate 335 to drive positioning rod 507 away from positioning plate 506. Move sealing plate 335 to be replaced closer to mounting plate 334, so that positioning rod 507 is inserted into positioning plate 506. Release pull plate 510, and under the action of elastic force of second spring 511, insertion rod 509 is inserted into mounting plate 334, completing the replacement of sealing plate 335. By setting up the replacement device 5, the collection tube 2 and the collection cylinder 307 can be separated from the collection box 301, which facilitates the replacement of the collection cylinder 307 and the collection tube 2, and ensures the reusability of the collection box 301 as much as possible, thereby reducing the cost of patient urine collection.
