[0034] The fixing plate 210 is disc-shaped as a whole and has a diameter smaller than the top port diameter of the straight tube 21. Connecting rods are fixed on both the front and rear sides of the fixing plate 210. The other end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the inner cavity side wall of the straight tube 21. A space for urine circulation is formed between the surrounding of the fixing plate 210 and the inner cavity side wall of the straight tube 21.

[0035] Slide rods 25 are fixed on the front and rear side walls of the movable plate 27, and sliders are fixed on the ends of the slide rods 25 that are away from each other, and slide grooves that slide with the sliders are provided on the front and rear side walls of the inner cavity of the straight tube 21, wherein the length of the slide grooves is 1cm-2cm. A circular hole for the drainage tube 212 to pass through is provided on the left side wall of the inner cavity of the straight tube 21, and a round rod is fixed on the left side wall of the movable plate 27, and the other end of the round rod is connected to the side wall of the silicone plugging block 211, and the side of the silicone plugging block 211 away from the round rod is in contact with the inner cavity side wall of the straight tube 21, which is used to block the circular hole on the side wall of the straight tube 21. The length of the sealing cylinder 26 is 1cm-2cm, and the outer ring surface of the sealing cylinder 26 is in contact with the inner cavity of the drainage hole 24 inside the rubber ball 23.

[0036] The steel wire 29 passes through the straight tube 21 and the fixed plate 210, and the steel wire 29 passes through the inner cavity of the reset spring 28, wherein a through hole is provided on the side wall of the straight tube 21 for the steel wire 29 to pass through and move, and a sealing ring is filled inside the through hole. A grip ring 214 is integrally formed and fixed on the end of the handle 213 away from the urine receiving cup 1, and an inner ring 215 is sleeved in the inner ring of the grip ring 214, and the diameter of the inner ring 215 is smaller than the diameter of the grip ring 214 to provide the grip ring 214 with space to move and pull the steel wire 29, wherein a fine hole is provided inside the handle 213 for the steel wire 29 to pass through and move.

[0037] A hollow plug 22 is fixed to the bottom port of the straight tube 21, wherein a plurality of silicone rings are fixed to the outer surface of the hollow plug 22, which is used for the hollow plug 22 to be inserted into the interior of the sampling tube 3 and then be clamped with the sampling tube 3. The urine receiving cup 1 is cup-shaped as a whole, and the top port of the urine receiving cup 1 is a wide mouth, which is used to receive urine. A through hole is provided on the bottom surface of the urine receiving cup 1 for the straight tube 21 to pass through and be fixed; the sampling tube 3 is made of transparent material and the volume scale value is etched on the tube body.

[0038] According to the above-mentioned preferred technical solution, the workflow of the technical solution is described as follows:

[0039] After the patient urinates into the urine receiving cup 1, the sealing cylinder 26 blocks the drainage hole 24 inside the rubber ball 23 due to the elasticity of the reset spring 28, and the rubber ball 23 blocks the passage between the straight tube 21 and the sampling tube 3. In addition, due to the elasticity of the reset spring 28, the movable plate 27 is lower than the position of the circular hole on the straight tube 21, that is, the silicone sealing block 211 on the side wall of the movable plate 27 does not overlap with the port of the discharge pipe 212 and the circular hole on the side wall of the straight tube 21 for sealing. It is worth noting that between the installation position of the discharge pipe 212 and the movable plate 27 limited by the elastic force of the reset spring 28, the discharge pipe 212 is 1 cm-2 cm higher than the movable plate 27. At this time, the urine will be discharged along the discharge pipe 212 and drained into the urinal.

[0040] When the patient feels that the urine has reached the middle section, the patient passes the grip ring 214 and the inner ring 215 through the middle finger or index finger. When holding the sampling device through the grip ring 214 and the handle 213, the patient hooks the inner ring 215 with the middle finger or index finger to allow the inner ring 215 to move inside the grip ring 214 and pull the wire rope 29 to move. At this time, the wire rope 29 will drive the movable plate 27 to move upward. After the silicone sealing block 211 moves to the port of the excretion tube 212 to seal it, the movable plate 27 will also drive the sealing cylinder 26 to be pulled out from the rubber ball 23, so that the urine can enter the sampling tube 3 from the drainage hole 24 inside the rubber ball 23. After observing that the sampling tube 3 is about to be filled, loosen the inner ring 215 to allow the elasticity of the reset spring 28 to reset the sealing cylinder 26 and insert it into the drainage hole 24. At this time, the urine in the latter section will continue to be discharged along the excretion tube 212.

[0041] The above only describes some exemplary embodiments of the present invention by way of illustration. It is undoubted that those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
