[0032] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5In one or more embodiments, a drying device for digestive endoscopy is provided, including a shell 100, wherein an air inlet 101, a drying chamber 102, a drainage chamber 103 and a cavity 104 are provided inside the shell 100, wherein the air inlet 101, the drying chamber 102 and the drainage chamber 103 are connected, a partition plate 105 is provided inside the drainage chamber 103, a rotating motor 106 is provided inside the partition plate 105, a water filter plate is provided on the inner wall of the drying chamber 102, an output shaft of the rotating motor 106 passes through the water filter plate and is connected to a placement plate 107, a hot air blower 108 is provided inside the cavity 104, and an output shaft of the hot air blower 108 is connected to a first air duct 109, a first semi-ring air duct 110 is provided inside the shell 100, and the air inlet 101 A second air duct 111 is arranged inside, the first air duct 109, the first semi-ring air duct 110 and the second air duct 111 are connected, a second semi-ring air duct 123 is arranged inside the shell 100, and the second air duct 111 is arranged on the surface of the second semi-ring air duct 123, the first air duct 109 passes through the second semi-ring air duct 123, an opening 124 is arranged on the surface of the first air duct 109 and inside the second semi-ring air duct 123, the number of the second semi-ring air duct 123 is at least one, the number of the hot air blower 108 is at least one, the number of the first air duct 109 matches the number of the hot air blower 108, the number of the air inlet holes 101 is multiple, and the number of the second air duct 111 matches the number of the air inlet holes 101.
[0033] In this embodiment, the digestive endoscope is placed on the top of the placement plate 107, and then the rotating motor 106 and the hot air blower 108 are started at the same time. The hot air generated by the hot air blower 108 has two circulation routes. The first route is to enter the drying chamber 102 through the first air duct 109, the first semi-ring air duct 110, the second air duct 111 and the air inlet 101. The second route is to enter the drying chamber 102 through the first air duct 109, the opening 124, the second semi-ring air duct 123, the second air duct 111 and the air inlet 101. The hot air will increase the temperature in the drying chamber 102 and accelerate the air circulation speed to improve the drying efficiency of the digestive endoscope. At the same time, because the rotating motor 106 drives the rotating plate to rotate, the digestive endoscope on the placement plate 107 can feel the hot air, further improving the drying efficiency of all digestive endoscopes.
[0034] See also Figure 1 In some embodiments, a first elastic arc plate 112 and a second elastic arc plate 113 are disposed on the top of the placement plate 107. The first elastic arc plate 112 and the second elastic arc plate 113 are symmetrically disposed, and the number of the first elastic arc plate 112 and the second elastic arc plate 113 are both multiple.
[0035] In this embodiment, the first elastic arc plate 112 and the second elastic arc plate 113 can fix the digestive endoscope, wherein the height and spacing of the first elastic arc plate 112 and the second elastic arc plate 113 can be adjusted according to actual conditions to adapt to different sizes of digestive endoscopes.
[0036] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the interior of the drain chamber 103 is abutted against a water tank 114, a stop plate 127 is provided on the front of the water tank 114, a groove 115 is provided inside the water tank 114, the inner diameter and shape of the groove 115 match the size and shape of the dividing plate 105, and a liquid level observation window 116 is provided on the front of the stop plate 127.
[0037] In the present embodiment, since water droplets are attached to the surface of the digestive endoscope after cleaning, the rotating plate may cause the water droplets to splash onto the inner wall of the drying chamber 102 when driving the digestive endoscope to rotate. Since the size of the drying chamber 102 gradually decreases from the top to the bottom, the water droplets on the surface of the drying chamber 102 may flow along the drying chamber 102, pass through the drain plate and enter the water tank 114, and the specific liquid level of the liquid stored in the water tank 114 may be observed through the liquid level observation window 116.
[0038] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, an air pressure sensor 117, a controller 118, an exhaust pipe 119 and a solenoid valve 120 are disposed inside the shell 100. The solenoid valve 120 is disposed on the surface of the exhaust pipe 119. The solenoid valve 120 and the air pressure sensor 117 are both electrically connected to the controller 118. A temperature sensor 121 is disposed inside the shell 100. A warning light 122 is disposed on the surface of the shell 100. The warning light 122 and the temperature sensor 121 are both electrically connected to the controller 118. A disinfection lamp 125 is disposed on the top of the inner wall of the drying chamber 102.
[0039] In this embodiment, the air pressure in the drying chamber 102 is monitored by the air pressure sensor 117. When it exceeds the set maximum threshold, the solenoid valve 120 can be controlled by the controller 118 to discharge the gas in the drying chamber 102 through the exhaust pipe 119 until the air pressure in the drying chamber 102 monitored by the air pressure sensor 117 is lower than the minimum threshold. The solenoid valve 120 is controlled by the controller 118 to close the exhaust pipe 119. The temperature in the drying chamber 102 is monitored by the temperature sensor 121. When the temperature is lower than the set temperature, the prompt light 122 is illuminated by the controller 118 to prompt medical staff that the temperature is suitable for taking the digestive endoscope. The setting of the disinfection lamp 125 facilitates the irradiation and disinfection of the digestive endoscope after drying is completed. A timer can be set according to actual conditions to monitor the working time of the disinfection lamp 125, the hot air blower 108 and the rotating motor 106.
[0040] It should be noted that the specific models and specifications of the rotating motor 106, hot air blower 108, air pressure sensor 117, temperature sensor 121, controller 118, disinfection lamp 125 and timer in the present disclosure need to be selected and determined according to the actual specifications of the device, and the specific selection calculation method adopts the existing technology in this field, so it will not be described in detail; its power supply and principle are clear to those skilled in the art, and will not be described in detail here; the connection and installation of its various parts and the signal transmission principles belong to the well-known technology in this field.
[0041] Specifically, the working principle of a drying device for digestive endoscopy provided in the present application is:
[0042] The digestive endoscope is placed on the top of the placement plate 107. The first elastic arc plate 112 and the second elastic arc plate 113 can fix the digestive endoscope. Then, the rotating motor 106 and the hot air blower 108 are started at the same time. The hot air generated by the hot air blower 108 has two circulation routes. The first route is to enter the drying chamber 102 through the first air duct 109, the first semi-ring air duct 110, the second air duct 111 and the air inlet 101. The second route is to enter the drying chamber 102 through the first air duct 109, the opening 124, the second semi-ring air duct 123, the second air duct 111 and the air inlet 101. The hot air will increase the temperature in the drying chamber 102 and accelerate the air circulation speed to improve the drying efficiency of the digestive endoscope. At the same time, because the rotating motor 106 drives the rotating plate to rotate, the digestive endoscopes on the placement plate 107 can feel the hot air, further improving the drying efficiency of all digestive endoscopes.
[0043] The air pressure in the drying chamber 102 is monitored by the air pressure sensor 117. When it exceeds the set maximum threshold, the solenoid valve 120 can be controlled by the controller 118 to discharge the gas in the drying chamber 102 through the exhaust pipe 119 until the air pressure in the drying chamber 102 monitored by the air pressure sensor 117 is lower than the minimum threshold. The solenoid valve 120 is controlled by the controller 118 to close the exhaust pipe 119. The temperature in the drying chamber 102 is monitored by the temperature sensor 121. When the temperature is lower than the set temperature, the controller 118 makes the prompt light 122 light up to prompt medical staff that the temperature is suitable, so as to facilitate the removal of the digestive endoscope. The provision of the disinfection lamp 125 facilitates the irradiation and disinfection of the digestive endoscope after drying is completed.
[0044] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than to limit it. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
