Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of examination equipment technology, and more particularly to a self-service oropharyngeal examination device for smart healthcare. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid iteration of smart healthcare technology, medical services are gradually developing towards precision, convenience, and accessibility. Oropharyngeal examination, as a basic step in the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory infections and throat diseases such as pharyngitis, tonsillitis, and pharyngeal ulcers, is widely used in internal medicine, otolaryngology, and pediatric clinical settings. As residents' awareness of health management increases, the demand for family health screening and primary healthcare services is growing, and the limitations of the traditional oropharyngeal examination model are becoming increasingly apparent.

[0003] However, during oropharyngeal examinations, most oropharyngeal examination instruments are reusable and require multiple processes such as cleaning, disinfection, and sterilization before reuse. In primary healthcare institutions or community screening scenarios, if the disinfection process is not standardized, such as failing to meet medical sterilization standards or incomplete instrument cleaning, it can easily lead to cross-infection among patients. This risk is significantly increased, especially during peak seasons for respiratory infectious diseases such as influenza. Furthermore, manual cleaning is time-consuming and labor-intensive, resulting in a heavy workload for medical staff and making it difficult to ensure consistent cleaning effectiveness for each instrument. Additionally, while examination equipment is usually recycled when it reaches the end of its lifespan, components such as handles, supports, and outer shells can still be used. Discarding the entire device could result in a waste of resources. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of the existing technology mentioned above, and to propose a self-service oropharyngeal examination device for smart healthcare.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A self-service oropharyngeal examination device for smart healthcare includes a handle, a cleaning box, and an examination device support block. The handle is fixedly connected to a fixing block. The fixing block contains a disassembly mechanism for quickly separating the examination device support block and the fixing block. The disassembly mechanism includes a connecting compartment inside the fixing block. A spring is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting compartment. A first step block is fixedly connected to the side of the spring away from the bottom of the connecting compartment. A second step block is fixedly connected to the side of the examination device support block. A groove for inserting the first step block is provided above the second step block. The cleaning box contains a cleaning mechanism for cleaning the examination rod and the examination device support block. The cleaning mechanism includes a connecting strip inside the cleaning box. The connecting strip is slidably connected to a sliding groove. A reciprocating threaded rod is threadedly connected to the sliding groove. A first gear is rotatably connected inside the sliding groove. A rack is meshed above the first gear. A first bevel gear is fixedly connected to the side of the first gear. The first bevel gear meshes with a second bevel gear. The second bevel gear is driven by a second gear inside the groove. The second gear meshes with a gear ring.

[0006] The above technical solution further includes: The first step block is slidably connected to a lower groove, and a side connecting block is fixedly connected to the side of the first step block. An installation block is fixedly connected inside the connecting chamber. A sliding column is slidably connected to the installation block. A cavity for gas compression is provided inside the installation block. A connecting block is pipe-connected to the installation block. A pressing block is slidably connected to the connecting block. An inert gas for compression is provided inside the connecting block. A limiting block is provided above the fixed block for placing the inspection device support block to enter the cleaning chamber.

[0007] The inspection device support block is located away from the fixed block, and one end of the support block is rotated and connected to the fixed block. An electric tongue depressor is provided on the side of the inspection device support block near the bottom of the inspection rod.

[0008] The cleaning box has a door rotatably connected to its side, and a handle is provided on the surface of the door. A battery is provided on the top of the cleaning box, and a liquid storage tank is provided on the side of the cleaning box near the battery. The bottom of the cleaning box is provided with support legs.

[0009] The cleaning box has an opening on its side for inserting the inspection rod and the electric tongue depressor, and a stabilizing block for supporting the fixing block is fixedly connected to the side of the cleaning box.

[0010] The sliding groove is rotatably connected to a second bevel gear, which is driven by a belt. The end of the belt away from the second bevel gear is driven by a second gear inside the groove. The second gear inside the groove is rotatably connected to the sliding groove. The sliding groove has an internal track for the gear ring to rotate.

[0011] The reciprocating threaded rod is rotatably connected to the cleaning box, the rack is fixedly connected to the cleaning box, the connecting strip is fixedly connected to the cleaning box, and the sliding groove is slidably connected to the inner side of the cleaning box.

[0012] The multiple sets of electric telescopic rods inside the cleaning box simultaneously deliver the electrical energy and cleaning fluid or water required for drying the drying sheet through the waterproof and liquid supply holes on the side of the toothed ring. No manual addition or charging is required, avoiding supply interruptions caused by manual operation, such as insufficient cleaning fluid or spillage during manual filling.

[0013] The reciprocating threaded rod drives the sliding groove to slide stably along the inside of the cleaning box. The second bevel gear in the sliding groove drives the second gear in the groove through the belt, driving the toothed ring to rotate along the groove track. The groove track restricts the toothed ring from deflecting, ensuring that the cleaning fluid from the spray nozzle and the clean water from the spray block adhere to the inspection rod and the electric pressure plate, thoroughly covering areas that are easily missed by manual cleaning, such as the gaps in the probe and the edges of the camera, to avoid contaminant residue.

[0014] The inner side of the toothed ring is provided with a spray nozzle for spraying cleaning fluid, a spray block for spraying clean water, a drying plate for the inspection rod and the electric tongue depressor, a waterproof socket for charging, and a socket for conveying cleaning fluid and clean water.

[0015] Multiple sets of electric telescopic rods inside the cleaning box simultaneously deliver the electrical energy and cleaning fluid or water required for drying the drying sheet through waterproof and liquid supply holes on the side of the toothed ring. No manual addition or charging is required, avoiding supply interruptions or contamination caused by manual operation.

[0016] The inside of the cleaning box is equipped with multiple sets of electric telescopic rods for providing charging and liquid supply.

[0017] The entire process requires no human intervention, reducing working time.

[0018] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. In this invention, after the inspection rod and electric tongue depressor are used, there is no need for manual disassembly and cleaning. They can be directly inserted into the cleaning box along with the inspection device support block and precisely positioned into the toothed ring by the limiting block. Then, the reciprocating threaded rod drives the sliding groove to move, and the toothed ring rotates along the track in the groove through gear meshing. The cleaning fluid nozzle, clean water nozzle, and drying plate on its inner side can perform circumferential cleaning, rinsing and drying of the inspection rod and electric tongue depressor. At the same time, the spray nozzle inside the cleaning box can also directionally rinse the camera at the end of the inspection rod to avoid contaminant residue.

[0019] 2. In this invention, when the inspection rod or electric tongue depressor is damaged or reaches the end of its lifespan, simply press the pressing block to allow the gas inside the connecting block to push the sliding column to squeeze the side connecting block, causing the first step block to disengage from the groove. This allows the inspection device support block to be removed from the fixing block, and the inspection device support block containing the inspection rod and electric tongue depressor can be replaced separately. Furthermore, the fixing block can be adapted to a children's version of the inspection device support block, eliminating the need to replace the handle and the fixing block. This design avoids the complete disposal of the equipment due to partial damage to the inspection rod or electric tongue depressor. Durable parts such as the handle and fixing block can be reused, and only the high-frequency wear-out inspection components need to be replaced. This reduces the waste of resources such as metal and plastic, and lowers the equipment usage cost in primary healthcare institutions and community screening scenarios. Attached Figure Description

[0036] In this embodiment, no human intervention is required throughout the process, reducing working time.

[0037] The working principle of the self-service oropharyngeal examination device for smart healthcare in this invention is as follows: First, by holding the handle 1, the examiner inserts the examination rod 18 into their mouth. Then, the examination rod 18 is rotated to take pictures of the patient's pharynx, and the patient's condition is recorded. During use, the electric tongue depressor 19 is controlled to press down the examiner's tongue, preventing it from blocking the camera at one end of the examination rod 18. When the examination rod 18 and the electric tongue depressor 19 are no longer usable, the pressing block 16 is pressed. The pressing block 16 then transports the gas inside the connecting block 17 along the pipe to the interior of the mounting block 15. Then, the gas inside the mounting block 15 pushes the sliding column 14, which in turn squeezes the side connecting block 11. The side connecting block 11 then pulls the first step block 10 out of the slot 13. At this time, the spring 9 is in a compressed state. Then, the inspection device support block 20 can be removed from the side of the fixing block 6. Then, the inspection rod 18 and the electric tongue depressor 19 can be replaced with new inspection heads. In addition, the fixing block 6 can be connected to the child version of the inspection device support block 20, which can be used by different groups of people. Replacing the inspection device support block 20 can effectively prevent the replacement of the entire device due to damage to the inspection rod 18 and the electric tongue depressor 19, reducing the waste of resources.

[0038] When the fixing block 6 is assembled with the new inspector support block 20, the second step block 12 on the side of the inspector support block 20 is directly inserted into the connecting compartment 7 on the side of the fixing block 6. The second step block 12 then uses its inclined side to push the bottom of the first step block 10, causing the first step block 10 to slide upward and compress the spring 9. As the second step block 12 fully enters the connecting compartment 7, the spring 9 releases its elastic potential energy, pressing the first step block 10 against the groove 13 above the second step block 12. At this point, the fixing block 6 and the inspection device support block 20 are fixed. The inspector is then inspected. The inspection rod 18 and the electric tongue depressor 19 need to be cleaned. The inspection rod 18 and the electric tongue depressor 19 are inserted into the cleaning box 2. A limit block is provided above the inspection device support block 20, so the inspection rod 18 and the electric tongue depressor 19 can just reach the inner position of the toothed ring 30. The reciprocating threaded rod 23 is then controlled to rotate, and the rotation of the reciprocating threaded rod 23 will drive the sliding groove 22 into... The sliding groove 22 moves, causing the first gear 25 inside the groove to mesh with the rack 24. The rotation of the first gear 25 then causes the first bevel gear 26 to mesh with the second bevel gear 27. The rotation of the second bevel gear 27, via the belt 28, causes the second gear 29 inside the groove to rotate. The rotation of the second gear 29 then meshes with the gear ring 30, causing the gear ring 30 to rotate along the track 31 inside the groove. Nozzles for spraying cleaning fluid are provided on the inner side of the gear ring 30. Clean water is sprayed... The cleaning system includes a spray nozzle and a drying plate for drying the inspection rod 18 and the electric tongue depressor 19. The reciprocating threaded rod 23 drives the sliding groove 22 to move back and forth, thereby using the toothed ring 30 to perform a circular cleaning of the inspection rod 18 and the electric tongue depressor 19. After that, it is rinsed with clean water and finally dried. This can prevent the problem of incomplete cleaning by medical staff. The cleaning box 2 is also equipped with a spray nozzle, which can be used to rinse the camera at one end of the inspection rod 18 to prevent residual contaminants on the surface.

[0039] In addition, three sets of electric telescopic rods are installed inside the cleaning box 2, which are used to power the drying plate of the toothed ring 30 and to replenish the cleaning fluid and clean water. The three sets of electric telescopic rods are replenished by the liquid storage tank 4 and the battery 5 above the cleaning box 2.

[0040] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
