Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of surgical knife cleaning and disinfection, in particular to a veterinary surgical knife cleaning and disinfection machine. Background Art

[0002] When cleaning veterinary scalpels, it is difficult to completely remove impurities attached to the surface of the scalpel. These impurities may include blood, tissue fragments, grease, and other difficult-to-identify particles. These impurities not only affect the cleanliness of the scalpel, but may also become a breeding ground for bacteria, thus threatening the safety of the next operation.

[0003] At the same time, when the scalpel goes through the sterilization process, especially when steam sterilization is used, some water stains are often unavoidable on the surface of the knife. Although steam sterilization can effectively kill bacteria, its working principle is to achieve the purpose of sterilization through high-temperature steam, which also results in some tiny water droplets or water films attached to the surface of the scalpel after sterilization. These water stains may not only affect the dryness of the scalpel, but in some cases, they may also become potential risk points for bacteria to grow again. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide a veterinary surgical knife cleaning and disinfecting machine to overcome the above-mentioned defects in the prior art.

[0005] A veterinary surgical knife cleaning and disinfecting machine, comprising:

[0006] A steam tank having a steam chamber formed therein;

[0007] Tank cover, which covers the top of the steam tank;

[0008] The heating seat is provided with a heating wire connected to the controller and is rotatably connected to the inside of the steam tank;

[0009] The bottom of the turntable is movably connected to the top of the synchronous rod on the heating seat, and the top of the turntable is movably connected to the bottom of the tank cover. A hook for hanging a knife is provided along the circumference of the turntable.

[0010] A flow-dividing ring is fixedly installed on the outside of the steam tank, and a jet pipe communicating with the flow-dividing ring is installed in the steam tank;

[0011] The delivery pump is arranged outside the steam tank, and the water inlet of the delivery pump is connected to the bottom of the steam chamber of the steam tank through the water inlet pipe, and the water outlet of the delivery pump is communicated with the inner cavity of the diversion ring through the water outlet pipe.

[0012] Preferably, a plurality of the hooks are provided and are evenly distributed along the circumference of the outer side of the rotating disk.

[0013] Preferably, the center line of the jet tube is located in the tangent direction of the turntable, the number of the jet tubes is eighteen, three in a group, the jet tubes in each group are arranged vertically equidistantly, and multiple groups of jet tubes are arranged in a circular shape with equal angles.

[0014] Preferably, a pressure limiting valve is installed on the tank cover.

[0015] Preferably, a filter screen is provided at the bottom of the water inlet pipe.

[0016] Preferably, the outer side of the heating seat is evenly distributed with several interference flow vanes.

[0017] Preferably, the bottom center line of the water inlet pipe is tangent to the inner side of the steam tank.

[0018] The utility model has the following advantages:

[0019] 1. Multiple jet tubes are fixedly installed on the side of the steam tank, which can accurately emit high-pressure disinfectant water jets to the knives, thereby effectively flushing out various impurities attached to the knives.

[0020] 2. The present application is also equipped with a heating seat for heating the disinfectant water to a suitable temperature. When the disinfectant water is heated, a large amount of steam will be generated, which can penetrate into the tiny gaps of the tool to achieve high-temperature disinfection of the tool, ensuring that bacteria have nowhere to hide. What is more clever is that when the tool gradually heats up under the action of steam, combined with the water flow medium ejected by the jet tube, it is easier to thoroughly flush out the stubborn impurities attached to the surface of the tool, achieving seamless connection between flushing and steam disinfection, greatly improving the efficiency and quality of cleaning and disinfection.

[0021] 3. After steam sterilization is completed, the airflow in the steam tank cavity is guided to the water inlet pipe through the rotation of the delivery pump, and then blown into the sterilizing water at the bottom of the steam tank. This has two major advantages: on the one hand, the flowing airflow can accelerate the evaporation of water on the surface of the tool and achieve rapid drying; on the other hand, when the airflow passes through the sterilizing water at the bottom of the steam tank, it will carry the effective ingredients in the sterilizing water, thereby re-sterilizing the airflow blowing towards the tool, ensuring that no new pollution sources are introduced during the whole process, avoiding the risk of secondary pollution.

[0022] 4. The veterinary scalpel cleaning and disinfection machine of the present application not only realizes the integration of cleaning and disinfection, but also cleverly combines the functions of drying and re-disinfection, ensuring the thorough cleaning and sterility of the scalpel, and providing a strong guarantee for the safety and hygiene of animal surgery.

[0028] The specific implementation methods of the utility model are further explained in detail below by describing the embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings, so as to help those skilled in the art to have a more complete, accurate and in-depth understanding of the concept and technical solution of the utility model.

[0029] Embodiment 1

[0030] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 It can be seen that a steam chamber with an opening facing upward is provided inside the steam tank 1, which is used to provide necessary conditions for sterilizing the knife 9. A tank cover 5 is movably installed on the top of the steam tank 1, and the tank cover 5 covers the top of the steam tank 1, so that the steam chamber of the steam tank 1 can be relatively sealed, providing the necessary prerequisite for sterilization.

[0031] A heating seat 11 with an electric heating wire inside is rotatably connected to the bottom of the steam tank 1. Sterilizing water is added into the steam chamber and the heat generated by the heating seat 11 is used to heat the sterilizing water, thereby achieving steam sterilization of the knife 9.

[0032] A turntable 7 is movably installed at the bottom of the tank cover 5. The turntable 7 can rotate with the centerline axis of the tank cover 5 as the centerline. The turntable 7 is cylindrical in shape, and a hook 8 is fixed on its outer circumference. There are multiple hooks 8, preferably twelve, and the multiple hooks 8 are arranged at equal angles. The tool 9 is hung on the hook 8 through the circular hole at the end, thereby providing conditions for the placement of the tool 9 through the hook 8.

[0033] A flow dividing ring 2 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the steam tank 1, and a jet pipe 13 communicating with the flow dividing ring 2 is fixedly installed in the middle of the steam tank 1. Figure 3It can be seen that the center line of the jet tube 13 is located in the tangent direction of the turntable 7. Therefore, when the jet tube 13 ejects a jet of disinfectant water outward, the disinfectant water pushes the tool 9, causing the turntable 7 to rotate, so that all the tools 9 pass through the jet tube 13 through the rotation of the turntable 7, thereby being able to comprehensively impact the outer side of the tool 9, avoiding the phenomenon of cleaning dead corners.

[0034] from Figure 3 and Figure 4 It can be seen that there are eighteen jet tubes 13, three in a group, and the jet tubes 13 in each group are arranged vertically equidistantly. Multiple groups of jet tubes 13 are arranged in a ring with equal angles, so as to increase the number of impacts on the tool 9 and ensure that the tool 9 can rotate normally.

[0035] A delivery pump 3 is fixedly connected to the outside of the steam tank 1. The water inlet of the delivery pump 3 is connected to the bottom of the steam chamber of the steam tank 1 through the water inlet pipe 4, and the water outlet of the delivery pump 3 is connected to the inner cavity of the diversion ring 2 through the water outlet pipe 41. When the delivery pump 3 rotates forward, the disinfectant water at the bottom of the steam chamber can be input into the inner cavity of the diversion ring 2 through the suction of the delivery pump 3, thereby providing the necessary conditions for the jet tube 13 to eject a jet of disinfectant water outward.

[0036] During actual application, the tool 9 is hung on the hook 8, and the tank cover 5 is covered on the top of the steam tank 1. Since the added disinfectant water is located at the bottom of the steam chamber in the steam tank 1, when the tool 9 is steam-sterilized, the heating seat 11 and the delivery pump 3 are started. At this time, the heat generated by the heating seat 11 causes the disinfectant water in the steam chamber to heat up and generate upward steam. The delivery pump 3 rotates forward, so that the extracted disinfectant water is transported to the diversion loop 2 and ejected outward through the jet tube 13. The impurities attached to the tool 9 are flushed out by the jet of disinfectant water ejected outward. After the disinfectant water flow ejected by the jet tube 13 hits the tool 9, it will rotate clockwise with the tool 9 as the fan blade. The rotation direction is referenced to Figure 3 , so that the cutter 9 drives the hook 8 to rotate the turntable 7 as a whole, so that all the cutters 9 rotate with the turntable 7, and after passing through the jet tube 13, the cutters 9 can be fully rinsed by the disinfectant water jet.

[0037] As the steam sterilization time increases, the temperature of the cutter 9 will also increase. The heated cutter 9 and the jet impacting outwards from the jet tube 13 make it easier to flush out the impurities on the cutter 9.

[0038] When the steam time is sufficient, stop heating the heating seat 11. At the same time, the delivery pump 3 rotates in the opposite direction. At this time, the delivery pump 3 will blow the airflow at the top to the bottom, causing the jet tube 13 to suck the airflow at the top of the steam chamber in the steam tank 1 and flow to the bottom. The airflow is finally filled with disinfectant water at the bottom of the steam tank 1 to disinfect the airflow. This cycle is repeated so that the circulating airflow accelerates the drying of the surface of the tool 9. Since the airflow is sterilized by the disinfectant water, the airflow during drying will not contaminate the tool 9, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the surface of the tool 9.

[0039] As a safety component, in order to prevent the pressure in the steam chamber of the steam tank 1 from being too high, the Figure 4 It can be clearly seen that a pressure limiting valve 6 is installed on the tank cover 5, and the pressure limiting valve 6 can be used to relieve the pressure of the steam chamber in the steam tank 1, so as to avoid abnormally high pressure in the steam chamber.

[0040] At the same time, in actual application, a filter screen is arranged at the bottom of the water inlet pipe 4 to prevent the impurities on the tool 9 after being flushed from being transported by the water inlet pipe 4 to be flushed to the surface of the tool 9 again, thereby reducing secondary contamination of the surface of the tool 9.

[0041] Embodiment 2

[0042] For further improvements based on Example 1, please refer to Figure 2-Figure 4 It can be seen that a plurality of spoiler blades 10, preferably six, are provided on the outer side of the heating seat 11, and the plurality of spoiler blades 10 are arranged equidistantly. The spoiler blades 10 are made of metal, so that the spoiler blades 10 are utilized to increase the heating area of ​​the heating seat 11, thereby accelerating the heating of the disinfecting water in the steam tank 1.

[0043] A synchronization rod 12 is coaxially fixedly mounted on the surface of the heating seat 11, and the top of the synchronization rod 12 is movably connected to the bottom of the turntable 7. When the synchronization rod 12 is clamped onto the turntable 7, the rotation of the turntable 7 causes the heating seat 11 to drive the spoiler blades 10 to rotate synchronously. When the heating seat 11 is heated, the rotating spoiler blades 10 force the disinfectant water to be stirred, thereby further accelerating the heating of the disinfectant water.

[0044] As a supplementary improvement to the second embodiment, Figure 3 It can be clearly seen that the bottom midline of the water inlet pipe 4 is tangent to the inner side of the steam tank 1, so when the bottom of the water inlet pipe 4 inhales disinfectant water / exhales air, the disinfectant water in the steam tank 1 will rotate.

[0045] When the cutter 9 needs to be steam sterilized and rinsed, the delivery pump 3 rotates forward, the disinfectant water is sucked into the bottom of the water inlet pipe 4, and is sprayed from the jet pipe 13 onto the cutter 9 to achieve the rinsing of the cutter 9. At the same time, the ejection of the jet pipe 13 will cause the cutter 9 to rotate clockwise, with a direction of reference Figure 3 , so that the synchronization rod 12 drives the heating seat 11 to rotate, and when the spoiler blade 10 rotates clockwise with the heating seat 11, the disinfectant water in the steam tank 1 is also stirred, so that the disinfectant water is evenly heated and the evaporation efficiency is accelerated.

[0046] At the same time, when the spoiler blade 10 is affected by the outward jet of the jet tube 13 and rotates clockwise, Figure 3 It can be seen that when the water inlet pipe 4 sucks in disinfectant water, the disinfectant water in the steam tank 1 will have a tendency to flow counterclockwise as a whole. After the disinfectant water with a counterclockwise flow tendency passes through the clockwise rotating spoiler blade 10, there will be resistance to the movement of the spoiler blade 10, which will eventually slow down the rotation of the turntable 7, ensuring that in the actual application process, due to the resistance to the movement of the turntable 7, the jet intensity of the cutter 9 resisting the jet tube 13 is also increased accordingly, further enhancing the jet cleaning intensity. On the other hand, when the cutter 9 moves faster, the contact time between the steam and the surface of the cutter 9 is relatively short, which may cause the steam to be unable to fully penetrate into every tiny part of the cutter 9, especially those areas with complex designs or gaps. In contrast, when the cutter 9 moves slower, the steam has more sufficient time to contact the surface of the cutter 9, so that it can be more evenly distributed and penetrate into every corner of the cutter 9, improving the disinfection effect.

[0047] When drying is in progress, the heating seat 11 will stop working, and the gas flow is as mentioned above. According to the reverse rotation of the delivery pump 3, the airflow at the top of the water outlet pipe 41 is continuously input to the bottom of the water inlet pipe 4, so as to realize the circulation of the airflow in the steam chamber in the steam tank 1. When the airflow is ejected from the bottom of the water inlet pipe 4 to the disinfectant water at the bottom of the steam tank 1, since the center line of the water inlet pipe 4 is tangent to the inner side of the steam tank 1, the outward airflow will cause the disinfectant water in the steam tank 1 to rotate clockwise, and then the heating seat 11 will be pushed to rotate by the spoiler blade 10, forcing the turntable 7 to drive the tool 9 to rotate, and the water droplets attached to the tool 9 are thrown out by the centrifugal force, thereby accelerating the drying of the tool 9.

[0048] The utility model is described above by way of example in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is obvious that the specific implementation of the utility model is not limited to the above-mentioned method. As long as various non-substantial improvements are made using the concept and technical solution of the utility model, or the concept and technical solution of the utility model are directly applied to other occasions without improvement, they are all within the protection scope of the utility model.
