Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of thermometer technology, specifically to a medical electronic thermometer with disinfection function. Background Technology
[0002] A medical electronic thermometer is a digital automatic temperature measuring instrument that uses a temperature sensor and integrated circuit to measure human body temperature. It senses the temperature change of the object being measured through a thermistor in the temperature sensing head. When the temperature changes, the resistance of the thermistor changes accordingly. The internal microprocessor converts, processes and corrects the resistance change, and finally displays the measured temperature in digital form on the screen. Currently, when taking the temperature of infants and young children, the user needs to hold the thermometer and insert its ear cover into the infant's ear canal to accurately measure the temperature. However, the user's hands frequently touch the outer shell of the thermometer, which may be contaminated with sweat, skin flakes, or external germs. If the thermometer is not effectively disinfected after use, it can easily cause cross-infection during subsequent use. At the same time, because infants and young children have delicate skin, inserting the ear cover of the thermometer into their ear canal can easily frighten them. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The technical problem that this solution addresses is: (1) How to solve the problem that the ear cover of the thermometer is easy to frighten infants and young children because their skin is delicate and the ear canal of the thermometer is inserted into their ear canal; (2) How to solve the problem that users frequently touch the outer shell of the thermometer with their hands, and that the thermometer is not effectively disinfected after use, which may easily cause cross-infection during subsequent use.
[0004] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solution: a medical electronic thermometer with disinfection function, comprising a protective shell and a thermometer body, wherein the inner wall of the protective shell is separated by a first partition into an adjustment cavity and a placement cavity, the adjustment cavity and the placement cavity being arranged side to side, two placement brackets for supporting the thermometer body being fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the placement cavity, a second partition arranged horizontally being fixedly installed in the middle of the inner wall of the adjustment cavity, and a control mechanism for controlling the airflow direction being provided above the second partition; The control mechanism includes a first guide frame fixedly connected to the first partition plate. A vent hole is provided on the second partition plate below the first guide frame, and a push-pull rod is movably inserted on the first guide frame. The bottom end of the push-pull rod movably passes through the vent hole and is fixedly installed with a sealing plug.
[0005] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that a thrust spring is fixedly connected between the sealing plug and the first guide frame, the thrust spring is movably sleeved on the outside of the push-pull rod, and the diameter of the thrust spring is smaller than the inner diameter of the vent hole, while the diameter of the sealing plug is larger than the inner diameter of the vent hole.
[0006] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that: a connecting groove is provided on the surface of the first partition above the second partition, and a flip plate is rotatably provided in the middle of the inner sidewall of the connecting groove via a rotating shaft, and the width of the flip plate corresponds to the length of the connecting groove.
[0007] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that: a transmission plate is fixedly connected to one end of the flip plate, a sliding groove is provided in the middle of the transmission plate, and a lever is fixedly installed on the top of the push-pull rod, and the lever is slidably connected to the sliding groove.
[0008] A further technical improvement of the present invention is as follows: two second guide frames are fixedly installed on the side of the first partition away from the push-pull rod, and a square rod is movably inserted between the two second guide frames. The square rod is arranged longitudinally, and a roller is rotatably provided at the bottom of the square rod. The roller is rotatably connected to the end of the flip plate away from the transmission plate, and a rubber block is fixedly installed on the top of the square rod. By opening the sealing cover and then turning on several electric heating wires, the sealing plug is separated from the vent hole due to the pulling force of the push spring. At the same time, the lever pulls the transmission plate and the flip plate to rotate. At this time, the flip plate is in an inclined state, blocking the connecting groove. The airflow entering the regulating cavity is heated by the electric heating wires, and the resulting warm air is blown out along the hot air pipe toward the ear cover of the thermometer body to warm the ear cover of the thermometer body and prevent the ear cover from being inserted into the ear canal of infants and children, which may easily frighten them.
[0009] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that a hot air pipe is horizontally inserted into the lower middle part of the first partition, the input end of the hot air pipe is located in the adjustment cavity below the second partition, and the output end of the hot air pipe is set towards the ear cover of the thermometer body, and the inner diameter of the output end of the hot air pipe is larger than the outer diameter of the ear cover of the thermometer body.
[0010] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that: a plurality of electric heating wires are fixedly installed in the adjustment cavity below the second partition, and an air inlet is provided on the outer wall of the adjustment cavity above the second partition, and an exhaust fan is fixedly installed inside the air inlet.
[0011] A further technical improvement of the present invention is that an ultraviolet lamp for disinfecting the thermometer body is fixedly installed on the rear side wall of the placement cavity; because the sealing cover provides downward pressure to the rod, the roller presses the flip plate. At this time, the flip plate is in a horizontal state and the connecting groove is not blocked. The sliding groove on the transmission plate pulls the lever and push-pull rod upward, so that the sealing plug blocks the vent hole. At this time, the exhaust fan is in the open state, injecting external air into the adjustment cavity, and then entering the placement cavity along the connecting groove and being discharged from the exhaust hole, ensuring that the thermometer body in the placement cavity is in a ventilated environment. This not only prevents sweat from penetrating into the thermometer body, but also avoids bacterial growth. At the same time, when the sealing cover is in the closed state, the ultraviolet lamp is turned on to continuously disinfect the outer shell of the thermometer body and the part held by the user, avoiding cross-infection during subsequent use.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: When using this invention, by opening the sealing cover and then activating several electric heating wires, the sealing plug separates from the vent due to the pulling force of the push spring. At the same time, the lever pulls the transmission plate and the flip plate to rotate. At this time, the flip plate is in an inclined state, blocking the connecting groove. The airflow entering the regulating cavity is heated by the electric heating wires, and the resulting warm air is blown out along the hot air pipe toward the ear cover of the thermometer body, warming the ear cover of the thermometer body and preventing the ear cover from being inserted into the ear canal of infants and causing them to be frightened.
[0013] In use, the sealing cover applies downward pressure to the rod, causing the roller to press against the flip plate. At this time, the flip plate is in a horizontal position and the connecting groove is not blocked. The sliding groove on the transmission plate pulls the lever and push-pull rod upward, causing the sealing plug to block the vent. At this time, the exhaust fan is turned on, injecting external air into the regulating chamber, which then enters the placement chamber along the connecting groove and is discharged from the exhaust hole. This ensures that the thermometer body in the placement chamber is in a ventilated environment, preventing sweat from penetrating into the thermometer body and avoiding bacterial growth. At the same time, when the sealing cover is closed, the ultraviolet lamp is turned on to continuously disinfect the outer shell of the thermometer body and the part held by the user, avoiding cross-infection during subsequent use.

[0017] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0018] Please see Figures 1-5 As shown, a medical electronic thermometer with disinfection function includes a protective shell 3 and a thermometer body 6. The inner wall of the protective shell 3 is divided into an adjustment cavity and a placement cavity by a first partition 8. The adjustment cavity and the placement cavity are arranged left and right. Two placement racks 7 for supporting the thermometer body 6 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the placement cavity. A second partition 10 arranged horizontally is fixedly installed in the middle of the inner wall of the adjustment cavity. A control mechanism 4 for controlling the airflow direction is arranged above the second partition 10.
[0019] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the aforementioned control mechanism 4 includes a first guide frame 405 fixedly connected to the first partition 8. A vent hole 9 is provided on the second partition 10 below the first guide frame 405, and a push-pull rod 406 is movably inserted on the first guide frame 405. The bottom end of the push-pull rod 406 movably passes through the vent hole 9 and is fixedly installed with a sealing plug 404.
[0020] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a thrust spring 403 is fixedly connected between the sealing plug 404 and the first guide frame 405. The thrust spring 403 is movably sleeved on the outside of the push-pull rod 406, and the diameter of the thrust spring 403 is smaller than the inner diameter of the vent hole 9, while the diameter of the sealing plug 404 is larger than the inner diameter of the vent hole 9.
[0021] Please see Figure 5 As shown, a connecting groove 13 is provided on the surface of the first partition 8 above the second partition 10. A flip plate 402 is rotatably provided in the middle of the inner side wall of the connecting groove 13 via a rotating shaft. The width of the flip plate 402 corresponds to the length of the connecting groove 13.
[0022] Please see Figure 4 As shown, a transmission plate 408 is fixedly connected to one end of the aforementioned flip plate 402. A sliding groove is provided in the middle of the transmission plate 408. A lever 407 is fixedly installed on the top of the push-pull rod 406. The lever 407 is slidably connected to the sliding groove.
[0023] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, two second guide frames 410 are fixedly installed on the side of the first partition 8 away from the push-pull rod 406. A square rod 409 is movably inserted between the two second guide frames 410. The square rod 409 is arranged longitudinally, and a roller 401 is rotatably installed at the bottom of the square rod 409. The roller 401 is rotatably connected to the end of the flip plate 402 away from the transmission plate 408. A rubber block 411 is fixedly installed on the top of the square rod 409. By opening the sealing cover 1 and then turning on several electric heating wires, at this time... Due to the pulling force of the thrust spring 403, the sealing plug 404 separates from the vent hole 9. At the same time, the lever 407 pulls the transmission plate 408 and the flip plate 402 to rotate. At this time, the flip plate 402 is in an inclined state, blocking the connecting groove 13. The airflow entering the regulating cavity will be heated by the electric heating wire, and the resulting warm air will blow out along the hot air pipe 12 toward the ear cover of the thermometer body 6 to warm the ear cover of the thermometer body 6 and prevent the ear cover from being inserted into the ear canal of the infant and easily startling him.
[0024] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a hot air pipe 12 is horizontally inserted into the lower middle part of the first partition 8. The input end of the hot air pipe 12 is located in the adjustment cavity below the second partition 10, and the output end of the hot air pipe 12 is set towards the ear cover of the thermometer body 6. The inner diameter of the output end of the hot air pipe 12 is larger than the outer diameter of the ear cover of the thermometer body 6.
[0025] Please see Figure 2 As shown, several electric heating wires are fixedly installed in the adjustment cavity below the second partition 10, and an air inlet 11 is opened on the outer wall of the adjustment cavity above the second partition 10. An exhaust fan is fixedly installed inside the air inlet 11.
[0026] Please see Figure 2As shown, an ultraviolet lamp 5 for disinfecting the thermometer body 6 is fixedly installed on the rear wall of the placement cavity. Due to the downward pressure provided by the sealing cover 1 to the square rod 409, the roller 401 presses against the flip plate 402. At this time, the flip plate 402 is in a horizontal state and does not block the connecting groove 13. The sliding groove on the transmission plate 408 pulls the lever 407 and the push-pull rod 406 upward, so that the sealing plug 404 blocks the vent hole 9. At this time, the exhaust fan is in the open state, injecting external air into the adjustment cavity, and then entering the placement cavity along the connecting groove 13 and being discharged from the exhaust hole 2, ensuring that the thermometer body 6 in the placement cavity is in a ventilated environment. This not only prevents sweat from penetrating into the thermometer body 6, but also avoids bacterial growth. At the same time, when the sealing cover 1 is in the closed state, the ultraviolet lamp 5 is turned on to continuously disinfect the outer shell of the thermometer body 6 and the part held by the user, avoiding cross-infection during subsequent use.
[0027] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the top of the protective shell 3 is hinged with a sealing cover 1, a handle is fixedly installed on the top of the sealing cover 1, and an exhaust hole 2 is opened on the outer wall of the placement cavity below the sealing cover 1. The position of the sealing cover 1 corresponds to the position of the rubber block 411.
[0028] Working principle: When using this invention, firstly, before using the thermometer body 6, the sealing cover 1 is in a closed state. Because the sealing cover 1 provides downward pressure to the rod 409, the roller 401 presses against the flip plate 402. At this time, the flip plate 402 is in a horizontal state and does not block the connecting groove 13. The sliding groove on the transmission plate 408 pulls the lever 407 and the push-pull rod 406 upwards, causing the sealing plug 404 to block the vent 9. At this time, the exhaust fan is turned on, injecting external air into the regulating chamber, which then enters the placement chamber along the connecting groove 13 and is discharged from the exhaust hole 2. This ensures that the thermometer body 6 in the placement chamber is in a ventilated environment, preventing sweat from penetrating into the thermometer body 6 and avoiding bacterial growth. Simultaneously, when the sealing cover 1 is closed... In normal operation, the ultraviolet lamp 5 is turned on to continuously disinfect the outer shell of the thermometer body 6 and the part held by the user, so as to avoid cross-infection during subsequent use. When the thermometer body 6 needs to be used, the user first opens the sealing cover 1 and then turns on several electric heating wires. At this time, due to the pulling force of the push spring 403, the sealing plug 404 is separated from the vent hole 9. At the same time, the lever 407 pulls the transmission plate 408 and the flip plate 402 to rotate. At this time, the flip plate 402 is in an inclined state, blocking the connecting groove 13. The airflow entering the regulating cavity is heated by the electric heating wires, and the resulting warm air is blown out along the hot air pipe 12 toward the ear cover of the thermometer body 6 to warm the ear cover of the thermometer body 6 and prevent the ear cover from being inserted into the ear canal of infants and young children, which may easily frighten them.
