An end groove 20 is provided at one end of each slide groove 21. The sliders 16 are slidably locked in the slide grooves 21. The width of the end groove 20 is greater than the width of the sliders 16. A pull ring 14 is fixedly connected to the top of the traction frame 15.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a folding pad 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the baffle 24 where the nozzle 13 is located, and a connecting pipe 6 is connected to one side of the baffle 24. A recycling tank 7 is located at the bottom of the connecting rod 1, and the recycling tank 7 is slidably locked to the outside of the connecting rod 1 through a dovetail groove 8 opened at one end.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a clamping assembly is provided at the free end of the connecting rod 1. The clamping assembly includes a fixed seat 3 fixed at one end of the connecting rod 1. Guide grooves 35 are provided on both sides of the fixed seat 3. A clamping plate 36 is slidably clamped between the two guide grooves 35. The inner side of the clamping plate 36 points to the inner side of the fixed seat 3. A limit ring 26 is provided at the top of the inner side of the fixed seat 3.

[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, a base support 5 is provided at the bottom of the fixed base 3, an air cushion 4 is fixedly connected to the base support 5, an ointment tube 37 is connected to the top of the air cushion 4, a pair of fixed tubes 27 are provided at the top of the fixed base 3, a bracket 31 is rotatably locked between the two fixed tubes 27, a measuring tube 32 is fixedly connected to the top of the bracket 31, and the bottom of the measuring tube 32 is connected to the top opening of the ointment tube 37.

[0026] like Figure 4 As shown, a top plate 30 is provided at the top of the measuring cylinder 32, and a rotating plate 28 is rotatably clamped at the bottom of the top plate 30. Multiple baffles 29 are evenly connected around the rotating plate 28. Multiple ventilation slots 22 are opened between the top plate 30 and the measuring cylinder 32, and the baffles 29 are blocked on the outside of the ventilation slots 22.

[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the bottom end of the measuring cylinder 32 is provided with an outlet pipe 33, and a suction pump 34 is connected to the outlet pipe 33. A spherical trowel is provided on the outside of the fixed base 3, and the output end of the suction pump 34 is connected to the spherical trowel.

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, a rotating frame 39 is provided on the outer side of the fixed base 3. A torsion spring 40 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating frame 39.

[0029] The clamping assembly can clamp the ointment cartridge 37. In conjunction with the metering assembly, the required amount of ointment can be measured before application to improve the utilization rate of the ointment and reduce waste. When using the clamping assembly, the clamping plate 36 is moved back along the guide groove 35, so that the clamping plate 36 drives the swing rod 38 and the rotating frame 39 to rotate, so that the coil spring connected to one end of the rotating frame 39 is compressed. Then the ointment cartridge 37 is placed between the fixed seat 3 and the clamping plate 36. When the ointment needs to be applied, the pressure in the air cushion 4 is increased, so that the air cushion 4 and the limiting ring 26 squeeze the ointment cartridge 37 together. At this time, the ointment will be squeezed into the metering cylinder 32. The amount of ointment squeezed out is counted by the metering cylinder 32. When the ointment dosage is up to standard, the rotating plate 28 is rotated so that the stop 29 is blocked near the air groove 22. At the same time, the pressure increase on the air cushion 4 is stopped, and the suction pump 34 is turned on simultaneously and the air groove 22 is kept open again, so that the ointment can be squeezed into the spherical applicator for application.

[0030] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows: The cleaning component in this invention can pre-wash the patient's skin lesions with warm water before applying ointment, thereby reducing irritation to the wound during ointment application. To use the cleaning component, first pour clean warm water into the liquid tank 17, then manually press down on the push plate 25 to compress the spring 23 connected to one side of the push plate 25. Next, insert the liquid tank 17 into the placement slot 2 within the connecting rod 1, and then release the push plate 25, causing it and the baffle 24 to press together and compress the liquid tank 17. At this point, the liquid can be passed through the connecting rod 1. The drive pump is set to draw warm water from the liquid tank 17 and pump the water into the nozzle 13 set on one side of the fixed plate 19. The water outlet mode is selected according to the condition of the patient's skin lesion. During the cleaning process, the opening of the folded pad 12 is kept facing upward and the folded pad 12 is made to fit the skin around the patient's skin lesion. At this time, the water from the nozzle 13 can be guided by the folded pad 12, so that the water flow rinsing the patient's skin lesion is directed into the connecting pipe 6 connected to one side of the baffle 24. The liquid is recovered through the recovery pipe connected to the connecting pipe 6 to avoid water from soiling the patient's clothes. After rinsing is completed, pull the pull ring 14 fixed at the top of the traction frame 15, move the traction frame 15 where the pull ring 14 is located backward, so that the traction frame 15 pulls the U-shaped ring 10 that it is hinged to, so that the U-shaped ring 10 drives the liquid tank 17 to move backward so that the liquid tank 17 can be taken out.
