Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ultrasonic probe cleaning, in particular to a device for cleaning and disinfecting ultrasonic detection probes. Background Art

[0002] When patients are undergoing ultrasound examinations, the ultrasound probe is a key detection component. Usually, after the ultrasound probe is used, the coupling agent adhered to it needs to be cleaned and disinfected to prevent different patients from repeatedly using the same ultrasound probe, causing patients with infectious skin diseases to transmit pathogens to the next patient, thereby causing cross infection.

[0003] Currently, in clinical practice, this type of ultrasound probe is mostly cleaned by wiping it with special paper towels, and several paper towels are needed for each wiping. This operation is not only very wasteful of resources, but also has poor cleaning and disinfection effects and is prone to a large number of sanitary dead corners.

[0004] Therefore, we designed a cleaning and disinfecting device for ultrasonic detection probes. Utility Model Content

[0026] The present invention can be explained in detail through the following embodiments. The purpose of disclosing the present invention is to protect all technical improvements within the scope of the present invention. In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that if there are terms such as "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", etc. indicating directions or positional relationships, they only correspond to the drawings of the present application for the convenience of describing the present invention, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction.

[0027] Embodiment 1, in combination with the attached Figure 1-4 The ultrasonic detection probe cleaning and disinfection device comprises a shell 1, a cleaning chamber 11 is arranged at the upper part of the inner cavity of the shell 1, and a cleaning liquid storage chamber 12, a waste liquid recovery chamber 13 and a power chamber 14 are arranged at the lower part of the inner cavity of the shell 1;

[0028] Two upper cleaning brush rollers 2 with opposite rotation directions are symmetrically arranged on the upper section of the inner cavity of the cleaning chamber 11, and a cleaning liquid nozzle 3 correspondingly connected to the cleaning liquid storage chamber 12 is arranged on the top wall of the cleaning chamber 11.

[0029] Specifically, the cleaning liquid nozzle 3 is connected to the cleaning liquid storage chamber 12 through a water pump, that is, the water pump can extract the cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid storage chamber 12 and spray it from the cleaning liquid nozzle 3. A lower cleaning brush roller 4 is provided in the middle of the lower section of the inner cavity of the cleaning chamber 11, and the bottom of the inner cavity of the cleaning chamber 11 is correspondingly connected to the waste liquid recovery chamber 13, and an insertion port structure 5 for inserting a detection probe is provided in the middle of the upper end of the cleaning chamber 11;

[0030] According to the needs, one of the upper cleaning brush rollers 2 and the lower cleaning brush roller 4 is driven by a belt group or a chain group, and the other upper cleaning brush roller 2 and the lower cleaning brush roller 4 are driven by an even number of gears; specifically, other transmission modes can be used to make the upper cleaning brush roller 2 and the lower cleaning brush roller 4 rotate in opposite directions. The lower cleaning brush roller 4 is connected to a driving device (not shown in the figure); such a setting can drive the lower cleaning brush roller 4 to rotate through the driving device, and the lower cleaning brush roller 4 drives the two upper cleaning brush rollers 2 to rotate.

[0031] Furthermore, the inner sides of the two upper cleaning brush rollers 2 rotate downward.

[0032] The insertion port structure 5 includes a lower sealing matching portion 51 and an upper partition portion 52. The upper partition portion 52 is provided with an aeration plate 6 on both side walls, and the aeration plate 6 is correspondingly connected to a hot air source 7, and the hot air source 7 is correspondingly arranged in the power chamber 14. It should be noted that the lower sealing matching portion 51 can be understood as the lower section of the insertion port structure 5 and the detection probe are sealed, and at this time, the part to be cleaned of the detection probe is located in the cleaning chamber 11, which can prevent the cleaning liquid from flying out during cleaning; the upper partition portion 52 can be understood as when the part to be cleaned of the detection probe is located at the upper end of the insertion port structure 5, the part to be cleaned of the detection probe and the insertion port structure 5 have a gap and are not in contact, which can not only prevent the coupling agent on the part to be cleaned of the detection probe from adhering to the inner cavity of the insertion port structure 5, but also provide space for gas flow.

[0033] The insertion port structure 5 includes a lower sealing fitting portion 51 and an upper partition portion 52 . The upper partition portion 52 has aeration plates 6 on both side walls. The aeration plates 6 are correspondingly connected to a hot air source 7 . The hot air source 7 is correspondingly arranged in the power chamber 14 .

[0034] When in use, first insert the detection probe to be cleaned downward into the insertion port structure 5. Under the action of gravity, the part to be cleaned of the detection probe enters the cleaning chamber 11, and then start the water pump and the driving device. The water pump draws the cleaning liquid in the cleaning liquid storage chamber 12 and sprays it from the cleaning liquid nozzle 3. The driving device drives the lower cleaning brush roller 4 to rotate, and then drives the upper cleaning brush roller 2 to rotate. The upper cleaning brush roller 2 and the lower cleaning brush roller 4 cooperate with the cleaning liquid to complete the function of cleaning the part to be cleaned of the detection probe; after cleaning, turn off the water pump and the driving device, and then lift the detection probe upward so that the cleaned part of the detection probe moves to the upper partition part 52, and then start the hot air source 7. The hot air flow generated by the hot air source 7 flows through the aeration plate 6 to the cleaned part of the detection probe, so that the cleaned part of the detection probe is dry.

[0035] Embodiment 2, combined with the attached Figure 1-5 , an ultrasonic detection probe cleaning and disinfecting device, based on the first embodiment, a lower sealing matching portion 51 and an upper spacing portion 52 are provided with a step surface, the step surface is evenly provided with a spring 53, and a support sheet 54 is provided at the upper end of the spring 53.

[0036] Such an arrangement enables the cleaned portion of the detection probe to be located at the upper spacer portion 52 under the action of the spring 53 .

[0037] When in use, the difference from the first embodiment is that the detection probe needs to be pressed downwards during cleaning, and after cleaning is completed, the detection probe can be released so that the cleaned part is located at the upper spacer 52 .

[0038] Combined with Figure 5Furthermore, a locking assembly 8 capable of locking the position of the detection probe is provided at positions on both sides of the insertion port structure 5 corresponding to the top of the shell 1; the locking assembly 8 includes a locking plate 81, a hinged portion 82 hinged to the top of the shell 1 is provided in the middle of the lower plate surface of the locking plate 81, and adsorption members 83 capable of being adsorbed on the top surface of the shell 1 are provided at positions on both sides of the hinged portion 82 corresponding to the lower plate surface of the locking plate 81, and a resisting clamping portion 84 for resisting and clamping the side of the detection probe is provided at the inner end of the locking plate 81.

[0039] This arrangement allows the locking plate 81 to be rotated during cleaning so that the abutting clamping portion 84 at the inner end of the locking plate 81 abuts against the clamping detection probe, so that the portion of the detection probe to be cleaned is located in the cleaning chamber 11, and there is no need to manually press the detection probe downward during the cleaning process.

[0040] Embodiment 3, in combination with the attached Figure 1-5 The ultrasonic detection probe cleaning and disinfection device is based on the second embodiment, and ultraviolet lamps 9 are further provided on both sides of the upper partition 52; after the detection probe is dried, the ultraviolet lamps 9 can be used to further sterilize the detection probe.

[0041] In one example, the ultraviolet lamp 9 can be connected to the power supply through a switch, that is, the ultraviolet lamp 9 is turned on and off by manually controlling the switch.

[0042] In another example, the ultraviolet lamp 9 can be connected to the power supply through a time relay, a timer or other existing control modules. Since ultraviolet sterilization requires a certain amount of time to achieve the best effect (i.e., sterilization is completed and energy is saved), the ultraviolet lamp 9 can be controlled to be turned off through a time relay. That is to say, after the ultraviolet lamp 9 is turned on for a specific time, the ultraviolet lamp 9 is automatically turned off.

[0043] The parts of the present invention that are not described in detail are prior art. It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the above-mentioned exemplary embodiments, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic features of the present invention. Therefore, no matter from which point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive, and it is intended that all changes that fall within the meaning and scope of equivalent elements are included in the present invention.
