[0019] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments, but they are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0020] Example

[0021] An adjustable tracheotomy tube sealing cap is composed of Figure 1-4As shown, it includes a sealing cap body 1. The upper end of the sealing cap body 1 has an inner cavity 2 for connecting a tracheotomy tube. A through hole 3 is provided at the bottom of the sealing cap body 1 for gas circulation. A plurality of fan-shaped grooves 4 are arranged around the outer side of the through hole 3. A thin tube 5 is passed through the through hole 3, and a valve 6 communicating with the thin tube 5 is provided at one end of the thin tube 5. The valve 6 is arranged in the inner cavity 2, and the bottom surface of the valve 6 is in contact with the bottom surface of the inner cavity 2. During exhalation, the pressure inside the inner cavity 2 is greater than the external air pressure. Since the fan-shaped groove 4 blocks the valve 6, the valve 6 is tightly fitted with the bottom surface of the inner cavity 2, and the gas cannot be exhaled from the fan-shaped groove 4 of the sealing cap body 1, thus ensuring that the gas is exhaled from the bottom of the cap 5 or the mouth; during inhalation, since the pressure inside the inner cavity 2 is less than the external pressure, the airflow separates the valve 6 from the bottom surface of the inner cavity 2, so that the airflow can enter the inner cavity 2 through the fan-shaped groove 4, and then enter the trachea through the tracheostomy tube, thereby improving the voice and restoring the patient's language communication. A regulating valve 8 is also sleeved on the cap 5, and the regulating valve 8 is provided with a tube hole located below the inclined groove 12, and the cap 5 is inserted into the tube hole. The upper inner side of the regulating valve 8 is provided with an inclined groove 12, and the regulating valve 8 is equipped with an adjusting roller 9, and the bottom of the adjusting roller 9 is in conflict with the cap 5; sliding rods 13 are provided on both sides of the adjusting roller 9, and the sliding rods 13 cooperate with the inclined groove 12. The design of the inclined groove 12 enables the adjusting roller 9 to change the flow area of ​​the capillary 5 when rotating, thereby achieving the regulation of the gas flow rate. The adjusting roller 9 adopts a straight-grained embossed wheel, which can increase the friction of the adjusting roller 9, making it more convenient to rotate the adjusting roller 9. The setting of the adjusting roller 9 enables the user to adjust the flow area of ​​the capillary 5 by rotating the adjusting roller 9, flexibly adjust the opening and closing degree of the capillary 5 according to the actual situation, and accurately control the flow of gas to meet the needs of different sealing conditions. This flexibility is particularly important in medical care. A trumpet-shaped mounting port 10 is provided at the other end of the capillary 5. The trumpet-shaped mounting port 10 allows the capillary 5 to be easily connected to different oxygen equipment. An annular boss 11 is provided on the top of the sealing cap body 1. The annular boss 11 can be sleeved on the tracheostomy cannula to increase the stability of the connection between the sealing cap body 1 and the tracheostomy cannula and prevent the sealing cap from falling off during use.

[0022] Preferably, a valve fixing head 7 is provided on the capillary 5, and is used to cooperate with the through hole 3 to fix the position of the valve 6. The valve fixing head 7 is located outside the through hole 3, and the setting of the valve fixing head 7 can prevent the valve 6 from being displaced during use, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the valve 6.

[0023] Preferably, the valve 6 is made of medical-grade silicone, which has good elasticity and corrosion resistance, ensuring that the valve 6 has good sealing and durability during use, and can maintain stable performance for a long time, while also reducing the discomfort to the patient.

[0024] In summary, the utility model can avoid the problem of patient discomfort caused by dyspnea, and has the advantages of simple structure and easy use.
