[0026] Please see Figs. 1 to 3The multi-purpose enema device of this invention includes a base 1 and a water tank 2. The water tank 2 and the base 1 are detachably connected for easy installation and disassembly. The top of the water tank 2 has a liquid inlet 3, and a detachable cover 4 is attached to the liquid inlet 3. The inner cavity of the water tank 2 is divided into two chambers, each capable of holding different cleaning solutions for greater convenience. Each of the two chambers has a liquid outlet 5 at its bottom, with the edges of the outlet 5 extending outwards to form an extension section. The base 1 has two liquid storage chambers, each with a fixing groove at its top. After installation, the extension section... Located within the fixed tank, this structural design facilitates easier installation and disassembly. Furthermore, the fixed tank has an opening on the side near the liquid storage chamber to prevent liquid residue from remaining inside. Two liquid storage chambers are connected to a liquid outlet assembly 6, and a heating element is also installed within each chamber. The base 1 is equipped with a flow regulation assembly 7 and a temperature regulation assembly 8. The flow regulation assembly 7 adjusts the flow rate of the liquid outlet assembly 6, while the heating element is connected to the temperature regulation assembly 8. These components allow for heating and regulating the liquid within the storage tank, improving user comfort.

[0027] Specifically, in this embodiment, the flow regulation component 7 is an electric flow regulation component 7, which includes a flow regulation switch, a flow sensor, and a control / feedback module. The flow regulation switch, the flow sensor, and the control / feedback module are communicatively connected.

[0028] As a preferred embodiment, a sealing ring is provided in the fixing groove in this embodiment. Specifically, the sealing ring in this embodiment is pasted on the side of the fixing groove away from the liquid storage cavity, which can improve the connection stability between the water tank 2 and the base 1.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the extension section in this embodiment is detachably connected to a second liquid outlet pipe assembly 9, which includes a third liquid outlet pipe and a fourth liquid outlet pipe. The third and fourth liquid outlet pipes respectively include a rigid connecting pipe section 10 and a flexible pipe section 11. The rigid connecting pipe section 10 is installed in the extension section and connected to the extension section by threads. With this structural design, the user can carry the water tank 2 when going out, and can also clean it through the third and fourth liquid outlet pipes, which greatly improves the convenience of use.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, manual flow regulators 12 are respectively provided on the third and fourth outlet pipes in this embodiment. The manual flow regulator 12 includes an outlet pipe fixing seat with a receiving cavity. The top of the fixing seat is inclined, and a set of grooves with the same inclination angle as the inclined surface are provided on the inner wall of the fixing seat. A gear is provided in the receiving cavity. The third or fourth outlet pipe is disposed between the fixing seat and the gear. The shaft of the gear is disposed in the groove and moves back and forth along the groove to realize the flow regulation of the outlet pipe.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the first and second outlet tube groups 6 and 9 of this embodiment are detachably connected to a plug-in enema head 13 away from the water tank 2. This structural design facilitates the replacement of the enema head. The plug-in enema head 13 is equipped with an anti-backflow structure 14, which can prevent backflow during use and avoid contamination of the enema head and the second outlet tube group 9 by dirt. Specifically, the anti-backflow structure 14 of this embodiment consists of at least two expansion sections.

[0032] As a preferred embodiment, the top of the water tank 2 in this embodiment is provided with a handle 15 for easy carrying, and the water tank 2 is provided with a water temperature display paper 16 for easy observation of the temperature and improved user comfort.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the two cavities in this embodiment are a water purification chamber and a traditional Chinese medicine chamber. A filter membrane 17 is detachably installed in the traditional Chinese medicine chamber to filter out the sediment in the traditional Chinese medicine. The filter membrane 17 is located above the second water outlet pipe assembly. This structural design can prevent the sediment in the traditional Chinese medicine liquid from accumulating and clogging the enema head.

[0034] As a preferred embodiment, the water tank 2 in this embodiment is made of antibacterial material. This structural design can prevent bacterial growth and affect its use.

[0035] As a preferred embodiment, the water tank 2 in this embodiment is a foldable water tank 2, including a rigid material segment 201 and a rigid material segment 203. A flexible material segment 202 connects the rigid material segment 201 and the rigid material segment 203. With this structural design, the volume of the water tank 2 can be reduced, making it easy to carry.

[0036] How to use: I. Preliminary Preparation and Installation Phase Liquid storage and assembly: Open the top cover 4 of water tank 2, and inject purified water and traditional Chinese medicine liquid into the dual chambers (purified water chamber and traditional Chinese medicine chamber) through the liquid inlet 3 respectively (the filter membrane 17 in the traditional Chinese medicine chamber can filter sediment and avoid clogging); if using traditional Chinese medicine liquid, ensure that the filter membrane 17 is installed above the liquid outlet pipe group 9, and close the cover 4 tightly after the liquid filling is completed.

[0037] Base 1 connection (home scenario): Align the extension section at the bottom of water tank 2 with the fixing groove of the liquid storage chamber of base 1 and insert it. The extension section and the fixing groove are sealed together by the sealing ring (to prevent leakage). After installation, the dual chambers of water tank 2 are connected to the liquid storage chamber of base 1 through the liquid outlet 5. Close the valve and inject purified water and traditional Chinese medicine liquid into the dual chambers (purified water chamber and traditional Chinese medicine chamber) through the liquid inlet 3 respectively (the filter membrane 17 in the traditional Chinese medicine chamber can filter sediment and prevent clogging). At the same time, the notch in the fixing groove can prevent residual liquid from accumulating. The heating component in the liquid storage chamber starts preheating.

[0038] Portable assembly (outdoor scenario): Disconnect the water tank 2 from the base 1, install the second liquid outlet pipe assembly 9 (liquid outlet pipe 3, liquid outlet pipe 4) in the extension section of the water tank 2 by thread, close the valve, and inject purified water and traditional Chinese medicine liquid into the dual chambers (purified water chamber and traditional Chinese medicine chamber) through the liquid inlet 3 respectively (the filter membrane 17 in the traditional Chinese medicine chamber can filter sediment and avoid clogging). It can be used independently without the base 1; hold the top handle 15 of the water tank 2 for easy movement and operation.

[0039] Enema head assembly: Depending on the usage requirements, the plug-in enema head 13 can be detachably connected to the first liquid outlet tube group 6 (at home) or the second liquid outlet tube group 9 (when going out). The anti-backflow structure 14 of the enema head (multi-segment expansion section, with a larger diameter near the liquid outlet tube) automatically takes place, forming a one-way flow channel.

[0040] II. Temperature and Flow Control and Liquid Discharge Stage Temperature adjustment: The target water temperature is set by the temperature adjustment component 8 of the base 1. This component communicates and is linked with the heating component of the liquid storage chamber. The heating component heats the liquid in the liquid storage chamber, and the water temperature display paper 16 on the water tank 2 provides real-time feedback on the current temperature until the set value is reached, ensuring user comfort.

[0041] Flow regulation (home scenario): When the electric flow regulation component 7 is activated, the flow sensor monitors the liquid flow rate of the liquid outlet assembly 6 in real time and feeds the data back to the control / feedback module; the user inputs the flow demand through the flow regulation switch, and the control module drives the flow regulation switch to adjust the pipeline conductivity to achieve precise flow control.

[0042] Flow regulation (outdoor scenario): No electric control is required. The flow rate can be adjusted by the manual flow regulator 12 on the third and fourth outlet pipes. The gear is pushed to move back and forth along the inclined groove on the inner wall of the fixed seat. The pressure on the outlet pipe (hose section 11) between the gear and the fixed seat changes, thereby adjusting the liquid flow cross section and realizing manual stepless adjustment of the flow rate.

[0043] III. Use and Pollution Prevention Guarantee Phase Liquid delivery: In a home setting, the heated liquid in the storage chamber is delivered to the enema head via the first 6 of the liquid outlet pipe assembly; in an outdoor setting, the liquid in the water tank 2 flows to the enema head via the second 9 of the liquid outlet pipe assembly (conducted by the rigid connecting pipe section 10 and adapted to the angle of use by the flexible hose section 11) under the action of gravity or manual pressing, thus completing the enema cleaning.

[0044] Anti-backflow and antibacterial protection: During use, the multi-segment expansion section of the enema head remains open when the liquid flows out. If a negative pressure backflow tendency occurs, the difference in diameter at both ends of the expansion section creates reverse resistance, blocking the backflow of waste and preventing contamination of the outlet pipe and water tank 2. At the same time, water tank 2 is made of antibacterial material, which reduces bacterial growth during liquid storage and ensures hygiene during use.

[0045] IV. Subsequent Disassembly and Storage Stage After use, disassemble the enema head for cleaning or replacement to avoid cross-contamination. In a home setting, the water tank 2 and the base 1 can be separated to clean the inside of the cavity separately. The notch design of the fixing slot makes it easy to drain residual liquid, resulting in a more thorough cleaning. In outdoor scenarios, disassemble the liquid outlet assembly 29 and fold the water tank 2 (the rigid material section 1 201 and the flexible material section 202 shrink) to reduce the volume and make it easier to store and carry.

[0046] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent claim. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
