Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a drain cleaning device for the anus in gastroenterology, belonging to the field of medical device technology. Background Technology

[0002] In hospitals, patients often experience difficulty defecating. To help patients defecate, enemas are too troublesome, while manual defecation is inconvenient and can easily cause bleeding. Therefore, a new tool for clearing the anus is very necessary.

[0003] Chinese Patent Application No. CN202121975142.1 discloses a rectal drainage tool for ward care, including a handle with a light at one end. The handle contains a battery compartment and a power compartment. The battery compartment contains a battery, and the power compartment contains an electric motor and a reducer. A rotating rod is attached to one end of the reducer, and a scoop is attached to the other end of the rotating rod. This invention uses an electric motor and a reducer to drive the rotating rod, causing the scoop to rotate slowly, thus assisting the patient in drainage. The force applied is stable and unlikely to cause harm to the patient. The light can be turned on in poor lighting conditions for convenient use. Pressing the pressure plate allows liquid from a reservoir pump to be released into the patient's body to soften the stool and facilitate drainage. A heating module can heat the liquid in the reservoir pump to prevent the liquid from being too cold and causing discomfort to the patient.

[0004] Chinese patent application number CN201520288215.8 discloses an intussusception airbag unblocking device, which includes: a rubber rod, a telescopic tube connecting the middle of the rubber rod, a main airbag and a secondary airbag installed on the rubber rod, the main airbag and the secondary airbag being located at both ends of the telescopic tube respectively, two ventilation tubes installed inside the rubber rod, the two ventilation tubes being connected to the main airbag and the secondary airbag respectively, and a one-way inflation port installed at the other end of each ventilation tube, and a handle at the tail of the rubber rod, with the one-way inflation port located on the outside of the handle. The advantages of this invention are: When using this invention, the draining device is inserted through the patient's anus, and gas is injected into the main and auxiliary air bladders through the one-way inflation port, causing the main and auxiliary air bladders to expand and become fixed in the intestine. Then, the draining device is pulled outward. The external pulling causes the rear end of the draining device to move outward, lengthening the telescopic tube. The main air bladder does not move, allowing the intussusception to return to its original state. After use, the syringe is inserted into the one-way valve to extract the gas from the main and auxiliary air bladders. After the gas is extracted, the draining device is pulled out, relieving the patient's pain.

[0005] However, the aforementioned equipment is not disposable and requires cleaning and high-temperature sterilization after use. However, the equipment is a single unit and cannot be disassembled for cleaning, which makes it prone to infection risks during use. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a gastroenterology anal drain cleaner to solve the above problems. The cleaning and disassembly components allow for the disassembly and disinfection of the user end to avoid cross-infection. At the same time, the auxiliary user components allow for the injection of medications such as glycerin suppositories deep into the patient's anus to soften the stool during the draining process.

[0007] The present invention achieves the above-mentioned objectives through the following technical solution: a gastrointestinal anal drain, comprising a cylinder, a connecting rod, and a digging spoon, and further comprising a cleaning and disassembly assembly and an auxiliary use assembly. The cylinder is hollow inside, with a circular opening at one end. One end of the connecting rod is located inside the circular opening and communicates with the inner cavity. The digging spoon is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod, and a water outlet is provided between the connecting rod and the digging spoon. The cleaning and disassembly assembly is installed at the port of the cylinder, and the auxiliary use assembly is located inside the cylinder.

[0008] Preferably, the collar is designed to be removed along with the connecting rod. The cleaning and disassembly assembly includes a rotating ring, which is rotatably connected to one end of the cylinder. A collar is fixedly installed on the outside of the connecting rod, and the collar is located inside the rotating ring.

[0009] Preferably, the rotating rod can drive the mounting plate to rotate when it rotates. As the mounting plate rotates, it drives the rotating ring to rotate. As the rotating ring rotates, it drives the collar to rotate. As the collar rotates, it drives the connecting rod to rotate. As the connecting rod rotates, it drives the digging spoon to clear the blockage for the patient. The rotating rod is provided on the outside of the cylinder. The mounting plate is fixedly installed on the outside of the rotating ring. One end of the rotating ring is fixedly connected to the outside of the mounting plate. A threaded groove is opened between the inside of the rotating ring and the outside of the collar.

[0010] Preferably, the arc-shaped plate facilitates the adjustment of the lead screw. As the lead screw is screwed into the threaded groove, its rotating ring can drive the collar and connecting rod to rotate when it rotates. At the same time, when cleaning is required, the lead screw is rotated to disengage it from the threaded groove, thereby releasing the limiting relationship between the collar and the rotating ring, allowing the connecting rod to be removed for disinfection. An arc-shaped plate is provided on the outside of the rotating ring, and a connecting block is fixedly installed on the outside of the rotating ring. A shaft is rotatably connected to the outside of the connecting block, and one end of the arc-shaped plate is fixedly installed on the outside of the shaft.

[0011] Preferably, the limiting pin is used to limit the rotating shaft. As the rotating shaft is limited, the arc plate is fixed a second time, so as to prevent the arc plate from moving when the screw is adjusted. A screw is screwed between the inner and outer walls of the arc plate. One end of the screw is screwed into the threaded groove. An L-shaped fixing plate is fixedly installed on the outside of the arc plate. The limiting pin slides inside the L-shaped fixing plate. A square groove is opened at the top of the shaft. One end of the limiting pin is inserted into the square groove. A guide rod is fixedly installed on the outside of the L-shaped fixing plate.

[0012] Preferably, the pull plate can drive the slide plate to move when pulled. As the slide plate moves, it causes the limiting pin to disengage from the square groove. The slide plate slides on the outside of the guide rod. The outer surface of the slide plate is fixedly connected to one end of the limiting pin. A spring is sleeved on the outer surface of the guide rod. The pull plate is fixedly installed on the back of the slide plate.

[0013] Preferably, the threaded rod can drive the piston to press down when it rotates. As the piston presses down, it can squeeze out the enema from the cylinder. As the enema is squeezed out, its outlet flows into the patient's anus to soften the stool and facilitate unblocking. The auxiliary component includes a circular plate fixedly installed at one end of the cylinder. A circular thread is opened at the center of the circular plate, and a threaded rod is screwed into the inside of the circular thread.

[0014] Preferably, the piston, when pressed down, can squeeze the encapsulated solution out of the cylinder. Simultaneously, rotating the threaded rod allows for more precise extrusion. Furthermore, the one-way baffle rotates inwards to open when water is flowing from the outlet, allowing water to flow out. When water stops flowing from the outlet, the one-way baffle closes, protecting the outside of the outlet and preventing fecal matter from clogging the connecting rod. A piston slides inside the cylinder, with one end of the threaded rod fixedly connected to the back of the piston, and a handle fixedly installed at the other end. The one-way baffle is located outside the outlet, and a fixed shaft is rotatably connected to the outside of the outlet. The outer surface of the one-way baffle is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the fixed shaft.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are: 1. The designed cleaning and disassembly components, utilizing an auxiliary disassembly method, allow for segmented disassembly of the entire unit. This avoids the risk of infection that can arise during use due to the integrated design of the equipment, which prevents disassembly and cleaning. The internal structure can be directly rinsed through this channel without completely disassembling the equipment, thus further improving cleaning efficiency. This design not only simplifies the operation process but also effectively reduces hygiene hazards caused by residue buildup.

[0016] 2. The auxiliary application component allows the enema to be squeezed out through the outlet into the patient's anus via a rotating motion, thereby softening the stool and facilitating drainage. This method not only improves the accuracy of the operation but also effectively avoids the uneven dosage problems that may occur with traditional squeezing methods. At the same time, the design of the auxiliary application component fully considers the patient's comfort, reducing discomfort caused by improper operation. In addition, the rotating squeezing method allows for better control of the flow rate, avoiding irritation to the patient due to excessive flow, further enhancing the safety and reliability of use.

[0025] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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.

[0026] Please see Figures 1-7As shown, a gastrointestinal anal drain cleaner includes a cylinder 1, a connecting rod 4, and a digging spoon 5. It also includes a cleaning and disassembly assembly 2 and an auxiliary use assembly 3. The cylinder 1 is hollow inside, with a circular opening at one end. One end of the connecting rod 4 is located inside the circular opening and communicates with the inner cavity. The digging spoon 5 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 4, and a water outlet is provided between the connecting rod 4 and the digging spoon 5. The cleaning and disassembly assembly 2 is installed at the opening of the cylinder 1, and the auxiliary use assembly 3 is located inside the cylinder 1. The cleaning and disassembly assembly 2 allows for disassembly and disinfection of the user end to prevent cross-infection. Simultaneously, the auxiliary use assembly 3 allows for the injection of medications such as glycerin suppositories deep into the patient's anus, softening the stool during draining.

[0027] like Figures 1-6 As shown, the cleaning and disassembly assembly 2 includes a rotating ring 201, which is rotatably connected to one end of the cylinder 1. A collar 202 is fixedly installed on the outside of the connecting rod 4, and the collar 202 is located inside the rotating ring 201. A rotating rod 203 is provided on the outside of the cylinder 1. An mounting plate 204 is fixedly installed on the outside of the rotating ring 201. One end of the rotating rod 203 is fixedly connected to the outside of the mounting plate 204. A threaded groove 205 is formed between the inside of the rotating ring 201 and the outside of the collar 202. An arc-shaped plate 206 is provided on the outside of the rotating ring 201. A connecting block 207 is fixedly installed on the outside of the rotating ring 201. A shaft 208 is rotatably connected to the outside of the connecting block 207. One end of the arc-shaped plate 206 is fixedly installed... A lead screw 209 is threaded between the inner and outer walls of the arc-shaped plate 206 on the outside of the shaft 208. One end of the lead screw 209 is threaded into a threaded groove 205. An L-shaped fixing plate 210 is fixedly installed on the outside of the arc-shaped plate 206. A limit pin 211 slides inside the L-shaped fixing plate 210. A square groove is opened at the top of the shaft 208, and one end of the limit pin 211 is inserted into the square groove. A guide rod 212 is fixedly installed on the outside of the L-shaped fixing plate 210. A sliding plate 213 slides on the outside of the guide rod 212. The outer surface of the sliding plate 213 is fixedly connected to one end of the limit pin 211. A spring is sleeved on the outer surface of the guide rod 212. A pull plate is fixedly installed on the back of the sliding plate 213. When it is necessary to clear feces from the patient's anus, first insert one end of the connecting rod 4 into the circular opening of the cylinder 1, so that the collar 202 on the outside of the connecting rod 4 is placed inside the rotating ring 201. Rotate the arc plate 206 to make it fit against the outside of the rotating ring 201. Rotate the screw 209 on the arc plate 206 so that one end of the screw 209 is screwed into the threaded groove 205 between the rotating ring 201 and the collar 202, completing the initial fixation. Then insert the limiting pin 211 into L. The curved plate 206 is fixed inside the fixed plate and inserted into the square groove at the top of the shaft 208 for secondary fixation. After assembly, the digging spoon 5 is inserted into the patient's anus. Rotating the rotating rod 203 will drive the mounting plate 204 to rotate. As the mounting plate 204 rotates, it will drive the rotating ring 201 to rotate. As the rotating ring 201 rotates, it will drive the collar 202 to rotate. As the collar 202 rotates, it will drive the connecting rod 4 to rotate. As the connecting rod 4 rotates, it will drive the digging spoon 5 to clear the patient's obstruction. If the patient's stool is hard and difficult to clear, rotating the handle 304 will drive the threaded rod 302 to rotate. As the threaded rod 302 rotates, it will drive the piston 303 to press down. As the piston 303 presses down, it will squeeze out the enema from the cylinder 1. As the enema is squeezed out, its outlet will flow into the patient's anus to soften the stool.

[0028] When disinfecting the equipment after cleaning, first pull the pull plate to disengage the limiting pin 211 from the square groove of the shaft 208, adjust the angle of the arc plate 206 to move the lead screw 209 away from the threaded groove 205, and rotate the lead screw 209 to disengage it from the threaded groove 205 between the rotating ring 201 and the collar 202, thus releasing the limiting of the collar 202 and the rotating ring 201. Then, the connecting rod 4 and the digging spoon 5 can be taken out from the circular opening of the cylinder 1, and the digging spoon 5, connecting rod 4, and other parts that come into contact with the patient can be thoroughly disinfected. After disinfection, the equipment can be reassembled according to the installation steps, thus avoiding the problem that the equipment is connected as a whole and cannot be disassembled for cleaning, which makes it easy to cause infection risks during use.

[0029] like Figures 1-7 As shown, the auxiliary component 3 includes a circular plate 301 fixedly installed at one end of the cylinder 1. A circular thread is formed at the center of the circular plate 301, and a threaded rod 302 is screwed into the inside of the thread. A piston 303 slides inside the cylinder 1. One end of the threaded rod 302 is fixedly connected to the back of the piston 303, and a handle 304 is fixedly installed at the other end of the threaded rod 302. A one-way baffle 305 is provided inside the scoop 5, located outside the water outlet. A fixed shaft 306 is rotatably connected to the outside of the water outlet, and the outside of the one-way baffle 305 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the fixed shaft 306. After inserting the digging spoon 5 into the patient's anus, rotate the rotating rod 203. Rotation of the rotating rod 203 drives the mounting plate 204 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating ring 201 to rotate. The rotating ring 201 then drives the collar 202 to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting rod 4 to rotate. The rotating rod 4 then drives the digging spoon 5 to clear the patient's obstruction. Simultaneously, if the patient's stool is hard and difficult to clear, rotating the handle 304 drives the threaded rod 302 to rotate. The threaded rod 302 then drives the piston 303 downwards, causing the enema solution inside the cylinder 1 to be squeezed out. The squeezed enema solution flows into the patient's anus through the outlet to soften the stool. Furthermore, the one-way baffle 305 rotates inwards to open when water is flowing from the outlet, allowing water to exit. Simultaneously, when water stops flowing from the outlet, the one-way baffle 305 closes, thus protecting the outside of the outlet and preventing stool from clogging the connecting rod 4.

[0030] When using this invention, to clear feces from a patient's anus, firstly, one end of the connecting rod 4 is inserted into the circular opening of the cylinder 1, so that the collar 202 on the outside of the connecting rod 4 is located inside the rotating ring 201. The arc-shaped plate 206 is rotated to fit against the outside of the rotating ring 201, and then the lead screw 209 on the arc-shaped plate 206 is rotated, screwing one end of the lead screw 209 into the threaded groove 205 between the rotating ring 201 and the collar 202, completing the initial fixation. Next, the limiting pin 211 is inserted into the L-shaped fixing plate and then into the square groove at the top of the shaft 208 to further fix the arc-shaped plate 206. After assembly, the digging spoon 5 is inserted into the patient's anus. Rotating the rotating rod 203 causes the mounting plate 204 to rotate, which in turn rotates the rotating ring 201. The rotating ring 201 then rotates the collar 202, which in turn rotates the connecting rod 4. The rotating rod 4 then uses the digging spoon 5 to clear the blockage. If the patient's stool is hard and difficult to clear, rotating the handle 304 rotates the threaded rod 302. The rotating rod 302 causes the piston 303 to press down, squeezing out the enema from the cylinder 1. The enema flows from the outlet into the patient's anus to soften the stool. Furthermore, the one-way baffle 305 rotates inwards when water is flowing from the outlet, thus enabling water flow. When water stops flowing, the one-way baffle 305 closes, protecting the outside of the outlet and preventing stool from clogging the connecting rod 4.

[0031] When disinfecting the equipment after cleaning, first pull the pull plate to disengage the limiting pin 211 from the square groove of the shaft 208. Adjust the angle of the arc plate 206 to move the lead screw 209 away from the threaded groove 205. Rotate the lead screw 209 to disengage it from the threaded groove 205 between the rotating ring 201 and the collar 202, thus releasing the limiting relationship between the collar 202 and the rotating ring 201. Then, the connecting rod 4 and the digging spoon 5 can be removed from the circular opening of the cylinder 1. Thoroughly disinfect the digging spoon 5, connecting rod 4, and other parts that come into contact with the patient. After disinfection, the equipment can be reassembled according to the installation steps, thus avoiding the risk of infection during use due to the integrated connection of the equipment and its inability to be disassembled for cleaning.

[0032] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within the present invention.
