Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an ultrasonic cleaning machine, in particular to a portable ultrasonic cleaning machine for contact lenses. Background Art

[0002] Contact lenses, also known as corneal contact lenses, are lenses worn on the cornea of ​​the eye to correct vision or protect the eyes. In order to get rid of the constraints of traditional glasses, contact lenses are becoming more and more popular. Contact lenses can be divided into daily disposable contact lenses, weekly disposable contact lenses, monthly disposable contact lenses, quarterly disposable contact lenses, etc. according to the length of the use cycle. Daily disposable contact lenses are worn for one day and then discarded, and the cost is high, so the largest number of users are still weekly disposable or monthly disposable. Although the use cycle is long, they still need to be cleaned regularly to clean harmful substances such as bacteria, dust, and tear proteins attached to the contact lenses to maintain the health of the eyeball. In the prior art, the commonly used cleaning methods are: 1. rubbing with fingers, which cannot be fully cleaned and is also prone to cause lens damage; 2. Soaking in care solution, which only has a subtle effect on the tear proteins on the surface; 3. Ordinary ultrasonic cleaning machines are large in size, inconvenient to carry, and can only be used in places with power, and can only clean dust and tear proteins, but cannot remove bacteria attached to the top of the contact lenses.

[0003] At present, during the contact lens cleaning process, it is necessary to add an appropriate amount of physiological saline and contact lens care solution into the cleaning tank, and then use an ultrasonic transducer to generate ultrasonic waves, causing cavitation in the water. Water molecules explode and continuously impact, causing dust and tear proteins attached to the contact lenses to vibrate and fall off, thereby completing the contact lens cleaning. After cleaning, the waste liquid needs to be poured out of the cleaning tank, and then wiped with a paper towel to ensure the cleanliness of the cleaning tank. However, during the wiping process, impurities on the paper towel will be adsorbed in the cleaning tank, thereby causing contamination for the next cleaning.

[0004] Currently, no effective solution has been proposed for the problems in the related technologies. Utility Model Content
