[0002] When a patient suffers a middle cranial fossa fracture, it may damage the intracranial structure, causing cerebrospinal fluid to leak from the nasal cavity or ear. Bacteria have the opportunity to enter the skull through the broken fracture and cause intracranial infection. Intracranial infection is a serious complication that may lead to diseases such as meningitis and encephalitis. It may also increase intracranial pressure and produce symptoms of intracranial hypertension. Ear leakage refers to the phenomenon that fluid inside the ear flows out or leaks from the ear canal.

[0003] Existing ear leakage is not easy to collect, which is not conducive to doctors observing the color, quality, viscosity and other characteristics of the ear leakage. At the same time, the existing ear leakage collector is easy to cause infection during use, which is not convenient for patients to use. In addition, the existing ear leakage is often dipped in cotton and the ear leakage amount is calculated by cotton counting, which has poor accuracy when used. Therefore, an ear leakage collection device is set for clinical doctors to observe.

[0004] For this reason, a disposable ear leakage collector is proposed. Utility Model Content

As the ear leakage flows out through the spiral connecting channel 2 and the reflux valve assembly 3 and enters the ear leakage collector 4, the reflux valve assembly 3 prevents retrograde infection by keeping the ear leakage in a state where it can only enter but not exit. When the ear leakage in the ear collector 4 exceeds two-thirds, the ear leakage collector 4 is removed, and the doctor is notified to check the color and quality of the ear leakage, and then the ear leakage collector 4 is removed for cleaning.

[0026] A limiting ring 21 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the spiral connection channel 2. When the ear leakage collector 4 and the spiral connection channel 2 are installed, the top of the ear leakage collector 4 is fitted with the bottom of the limiting ring 21. More specifically, the limiting ring 21 on the inner wall of the spiral connection channel 2 allows the ear leakage collector 4 and the spiral connection channel 2 to be limited when they are connected.

[0027] The regurgitant valve assembly 3 includes a carrier ring 301, the inner wall of the spiral connection channel 2 is fixedly mounted with the carrier ring 301, the top surface of the carrier ring 301 and the inside of the carrier ring 301 are mounted with three sets of elastic regurgitant valves 302, the top surface of the elastic regurgitant valve 302 is mounted with a clamping ring 303, and the three sets of elastic regurgitant valves 302 are arranged to fit each other. More specifically, when the ear leakage flows into the ear leakage collector 4, the three sets of elastic regurgitant valves 302 are spread out under the gravity of the ear leakage, so that the ear leakage leaks into the inside of the ear leakage collector 4, and after the ear leakage passes through, the three sets of elastic regurgitant valves 302 are closed to seal the ear leakage collector 4, so that the ear leakage is in a state of only entering but not exiting to prevent retrograde infection.

[0028] The ear leakage collector 4 comprises a collecting tube 401, an external thread ring 402 is installed on the top surface of the collecting tube 401, the bottom end of the auricle buckle 1 is meshed with the external thread ring 402 for fixed connection between the collecting tube 401 and the auricle buckle 1, a blocking ring 403 is fixedly installed on the surface of the collecting tube 401, and a silicone ring 404 is installed on the bottom surface of the collecting tube 401.

[0029] The collecting tube 401 is made of transparent material, and the scale line 5 is located on the front side wall of the collecting tube 401. More specifically, the collecting tube 401 made of transparent material and the scale line 5 on its surface are used to conveniently observe the collection of the inner ear leakage in the collecting tube 401.

More specifically, the auricle buckle 1 made of soft silicone material and arranged in an arc-shaped structure is convenient for hanging with the patient's auricle and is easy for the patient to adjust.

[0031] In summary: the auricle buckle 1 is hung on the patient's auricle so that the top end corresponds to the patient's ear canal, and the top end of the ear leakage collector 4 and the bottom end of the spiral connecting channel 2 are threadedly plugged into each other to connect the ear leakage collector 4 and the spiral connecting channel 2, so that the ear leakage collector 4 is placed on the patient's side ear, and the patient is in a functional position. As the ear leakage flows out through the spiral connecting channel 2 and the reflux valve assembly 3, it enters the ear leakage collector 4, and the reflux valve assembly 3 prevents retrograde infection by making the ear leakage only enter and not exit. When the ear leakage in the ear collector 4 exceeds two-thirds, the ear leakage collector 4 is removed, and the doctor is notified to check the color and quality of the ear leakage, and then the ear leakage collector 4 is removed for cleaning.
