DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 7 An endoscope cleaning device 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model is described.
[0027] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the endoscope cleaning device 100 according to the embodiment of the utility model includes a control host 1, a primary washing station 2, an enzyme washing station 3, a rinsing station 4, a disinfection station 5, a final washing station 6 and a drying station 7.
[0028] Specifically, at least one of the primary washing station 2, the enzyme washing station 3, the rinsing station 4, the disinfection station 5, the final washing station 6 and the drying station 7 includes an imaging device 9, which includes a housing, an imaging lens 91 and a display screen. The imaging lens 91 and the display screen are both arranged on the housing. The signal light emitted by the display screen is projected on the imaging lens 91, and the signal light passes through the imaging lens 91 and refracts in the air to form a floating real image that is mirror-symmetrical with the display screen. Among them, the display screen is connected to the control host 1. The floating real image can be used to display key information such as lighting, UV light sterilization, time and negative pressure fan. But it is not limited to this.
[0029] For example, in Figure 1-Figure 3In the example, the initial washing station 2, the enzyme washing station 3, the rinsing station 4, the disinfection station 5, the final washing station 6 and the drying station 7 can all include an imaging device 9. During the initial washing, enzyme washing, rinsing, disinfection, final washing and drying processes, the floating real image can be operated to operate the display screen to select different cleaning steps and cleaning times. Then the display screen transmits the signal to the control host 1, and the control host 1 controls the corresponding operating stations (i.e., the initial washing station 2, the enzyme washing station 3, the rinsing station 4, the disinfection station 5, the final washing station 6 and the drying station 7) to complete the operation of the endoscope cleaning device 100.
[0030] The imaging device 9 of the primary washing station 2, the enzyme washing station 3, the rinsing station 4, the disinfection station 5, the final washing station 6 and the drying station 7 is arranged at a height corresponding to the user's operating height, so that it is convenient for the user to view and operate the imaging device 9. At the same time, the imaging lens 91 of the imaging device 9 faces the operating table of the primary washing station 2, the enzyme washing station 3, the rinsing station 4, the disinfection station 5, the final washing station 6 and the drying station 7, so that the formed floating real image corresponds to the operating table, which is convenient for the user to operate.
[0031] In actual use, the user does not need to touch the mechanical buttons, nor the buttons on the display screens of the initial washing station 2, the enzyme washing station 3, the rinsing station 4, the disinfection station 5, the final washing station 6 and the drying station 7. By touching the floating real image, the floating real image can transmit the signal to the display screen, and the display screen changes according to the signal, so that the content of the floating real image changes, thereby realizing the interaction between the person and the display screen through the floating real image. As a result, the user does not need to take off and put on gloves repeatedly, which simplifies the operation process of the endoscope cleaning device 100, facilitates the user to operate the endoscope cleaning device 100 to clean the endoscope, is conducive to improving the cleaning efficiency of the endoscope, and at the same time reduces the risk of cross infection during the endoscope cleaning process, thereby improving the cleanliness of the endoscope cleaning device 100.
[0032] In addition, traditional LCD screens and / or mechanical button operations can also be set on the initial washing station 2, enzyme washing station 3, rinsing station 4, disinfection station 5, final washing station 6 and drying station 7, so as to realize touch operation and / or mechanical operation and jointly control the endoscope cleaning device 100 with the imaging device 9, so as to increase the operational selectivity of the endoscope cleaning device 100, thereby improving the practicality and flexibility of use of the endoscope cleaning device 100.
[0033] Optionally, refer to Figure 5, the imaging lens 91 can be an equivalent negative refractive lens, and the equivalent negative refractive lens can include two transparent substrates 911, and a first optical waveguide array 912 and a second optical waveguide array 913 arranged between the two transparent substrates 911. Among them, the first optical waveguide array 912 and the second optical waveguide array 913 are closely fitted and orthogonally arranged in the same plane. At the micron scale, a mutually orthogonal double-layer waveguide array structure is used to perform orthogonal decomposition of any optical signal. The original signal is projected on the first optical waveguide array 912, and a rectangular coordinate system is established with the original signal projection point as the origin and perpendicular to the first optical waveguide array 912 as the x-axis. In the rectangular coordinate system, the original signal is decomposed into two mutually orthogonal signals, signal X located on the x-axis and signal Y located on the y-axis. Among them, when signal X passes through the first optical waveguide array 912, it is totally reflected at the same reflection angle as the incident angle; at this time, signal Y remains parallel to the first optical waveguide array 912, and after passing through the first optical waveguide array 912, it is totally reflected at the same reflection angle as the incident angle on the surface of the second optical waveguide array 913, and the reflected optical signal composed of the reflected signal Y and the signal X is mirror-symmetrical with the original optical signal. Therefore, light in any direction can achieve mirror symmetry through this equivalent negative refraction lens, and the divergent light of any light source will converge into a floating real image at a symmetrical position after passing through this equivalent negative refraction lens.
[0034] At least one of the two transparent substrates 911 may be tempered glass. During installation, the transparent substrate 911 made of tempered glass is disposed on a side away from the center of the housing to extend the service life of the imaging lens 91.

As a result, the operation process of the endoscope cleaning device 100 is simplified, which is convenient for the user to operate the endoscope cleaning device 100, which is conducive to improving the cleaning efficiency of the endoscope, and at the same time reduces the risk of cross infection during the endoscope cleaning process, thereby improving the cleanliness of the endoscope cleaning device 100.
