DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The following embodiments of the technical solution of the utility model are described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, and are therefore only used as examples, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the utility model.

[0026] See also Figures 1 to 3 The utility model provides a vaginal irrigation device, including a liquid storage barrel 100, a cover 200, a liquid guide tube 300, a flusher 400 and a squeezer 500.

[0027] Specifically, the liquid storage barrel 100 is used to contain the flushing liquid. The lid 200 is a removable sealed lid arranged on the top of the liquid storage barrel 100. The liquid guide tube 300 is communicated with the bottom of the liquid storage barrel 100, and a flow control valve 310 is arranged at the end of the liquid guide tube 300 away from the liquid storage barrel 100. The flusher 400 is detachably connected to the liquid guide tube 300. When in use, the flusher 400 of different lengths can be selected according to the patient's condition. Clinically, the models of the existing flusher 400 are 7, 8, and 9 cm respectively. The squeezer 500 is connected to the lid 200 and extends into the liquid storage barrel 100, and can press the flushing liquid in the liquid storage barrel 100 into the liquid guide tube 300.

[0028] When in use, first close the flow control valve 310, then open the lid 200, pour the flushing liquid into the liquid storage barrel 100, and then put the lid 200 back on. The lid 200 not only seals to prevent the liquid storage barrel 100 from spilling, but also has a heat preservation effect. Then, select a flushing device 400 of a suitable model, connect the flushing device 400 to the catheter 300, use a vaginal speculum to expand the vagina, then insert the flushing device 400 into the vagina, and then start the squeezer 500, which squeezes the flushing liquid into the catheter 300, and the flushing liquid flows out along the catheter 300 and the flushing device 400, and then flushing can be performed.

[0029] By using the device, the squeezer 500 is connected to the cover 200, and the flushing fluid in the liquid storage barrel 100 can be pressed into the liquid guide tube 300, thereby increasing the pressure of the flushing fluid flowing out, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the flushing effect.

[0030] In this embodiment, the squeezer 500 includes an air tube 510, an air bag 520 and an air source 530. The air bag 520 covers the inner top surface of the cover 200 and forms an air storage cavity with the inner top surface of the cover 200. One end of the air tube 510 is connected to the cover 200 and communicates with the air storage cavity, and the other end of the air tube 510 can be connected to the air source 530.

[0031] When in use, after the air tube 510 is connected to the inflation source 530, the inflation source 530 is started, and the gas can be injected into the airbag 520, and the airbag 520 expands in the liquid storage barrel 100, and the liquid in the liquid storage barrel 100 can be squeezed into the liquid catheter 300. When in use, the faster the gas is filled, the faster the airbag 520 expands, and the greater the pressure of the flowing flushing liquid.

[0032] Specifically, the inflation source 530 includes a pressure relief valve 531, a balloon body 532 and a one-way valve 533. The balloon body 532 is placed on the ground, and the two ends of the balloon body 532 are respectively an air inlet and an air outlet. The pressure relief valve 531 is installed on the air outlet, and the one-way valve 533 is installed on the air inlet. The air pipe 510 is connected to the air outlet end of the pressure relief valve 531. Of course, in other embodiments, the inflation source 530 can be an air pump.

[0033] When in use, the balloon body 532 can be squeezed up and down by the foot continuously, and air enters the balloon body 532 from the one-way valve 533, and then enters the trachea 510 from the pressure relief valve 531, and then enters the air storage cavity from the trachea 510. When deflation is required, the pressure relief valve 531 can be opened to deflate.

[0034] By adopting this method, the hands of medical staff can be freed and inflation can be performed through the feet, which greatly improves the convenience of the entire device.

[0035] As a preferred embodiment, the device further comprises a positioning plate 600, a plug-in tube is arranged on the top of the positioning plate 600, the plug-in tube and the liquid guide tube 300 can be detachably plugged and connected, and the flusher 400 is connected below the positioning plate 600 and connected to the plug-in tube. The connection mode can be a fixed connection or a detachable connection.

[0036] The positioning plate 600 can prevent the irrigator 400 from entering too deeply into the vagina.

[0037] In addition, the device may further include a thermometer 700, which is disposed on the liquid storage barrel 100, wherein the detection portion of the thermometer 700 is located inside the liquid storage barrel 100, and the digital display portion of the thermometer 700 is located outside the liquid storage barrel 100. In a specific implementation, the water temperature of the flushing liquid is controlled within the range of 38-40°C. In a specific implementation, the thermometer 700 may be a digital display thermometer, as long as the detection portion of the thermometer 700 is located inside the liquid storage barrel 100, and the digital display portion of the thermometer 700 is located outside the liquid storage barrel 100.

[0038] In addition, the liquid storage barrel 100 is provided with a hanging rope 800. When in use, the liquid storage barrel 100 can be hung at a height by the hanging rope 800, which can further increase the pressure of the flushing liquid.

[0039] How to use the above vaginal irrigation device:

[0040] When in use, according to the patient's condition, select a flusher 400 of appropriate length and connect it to the catheter 300 through the plug-in tube on the positioning plate 600. Then, after closing the flow control valve 310, open the lid 200, pour the flushing liquid into the liquid storage barrel 100, and then put the lid 200 back on. Next, use the speculum to expand the vagina, insert the flusher 400 into the vagina, then step on the balloon body 532, the airbag 520 expands to push the flushing liquid out, and the flushing liquid enters the catheter 300. Then, open the flow control valve 310, and the flushing liquid flows out along the catheter 300 and the flusher 400, and flushing can be performed.

[0041] During the flushing process, the outflow of the flushing liquid can be further adjusted by the flow control valve 310 .

[0042] By using the device, the flushing fluid in the liquid storage barrel 100 can be squeezed into the liquid guide tube 300 by the squeezer 500, and the pressure of the flushing fluid flowing out can be increased, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the flushing effect.

[0043] In addition, by squeezing the balloon body 532 with the feet, the hands of medical staff can be freed, greatly improving the convenience of the entire device; through the positioning of the positioning plate 600, the flushing device 400 can be prevented from being inserted too deeply into the vagina, preventing the flushing fluid from entering the uterine cavity to cause infection and uterine cavity fluid accumulation.

[0044] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein by equivalents.
