Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gynecological examination, in particular to a vaginal probe capable of preventing a condom from slipping down when worn. Background Art
[0002] For intravaginal B-ultrasound or color ultrasound examinations, a dedicated ultrasound probe is generally used. This ultrasound probe consists of a probe head, a handle, and a hand-held handle. The head is shaped like a flat hemisphere, with the handle at the back. When in use, a condom needs to be put on the front of the probe.
[0003] Generally, the probe needs to move back and forth during use, that is, the condom contacts the patient the most times during the movement of the probe, and there is friction resistance during the movement. The existence of friction resistance may cause the condom to slide along the probe, and the fixation of the condom on the probe mainly depends on the rubber ring of the condom itself.
[0004] However, the outer surfaces of the head and handle of the probe are generally smooth. Although they can be fixed by the rubber ring on the condom, they cannot prevent the condom from sliding down along the ultrasound probe. Once the condom tends to slide downward, the wrapped probe may be exposed, and the exposed probe may come into contact with the patient's part to be tested. However, in clinical work, the ultrasound department has heavy tasks and a large number of patients. Medical staff generally replace the condom immediately after examining a patient to facilitate the examination of the next patient. The condom that slides on the ultrasound probe is not easy to be detected by medical staff, which can easily cause the risk of cross infection. Utility Model Content
[0005] The utility model aims to provide a vaginal probe which can prevent condoms from sliding down, so as to solve the technical problem that condoms are easy to slide on the probe in the prior art.
[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model specifically provides the following technical solutions:
[0007] A vaginal probe for preventing condom from slipping down comprises a probe. A limiting clamping mechanism is arranged on the outer side of the circumference of the probe away from the end extending into the vagina. The open end of the condom is fixed on the probe under the limiting action of the limiting clamping mechanism.
[0008] As a preferred solution of the utility model, the limiting clamping mechanism includes a first annular limiting seat and a second annular limiting seat, the first annular limiting seat and the second annular limiting seat are both protruded and fixedly connected to the end of the probe, and the first annular limiting seat is located above the second annular limiting seat, and an annular clamping groove is formed between the first annular limiting seat and the second annular limiting seat, and the condom is limited on the probe under the limiting action of the annular clamping groove.
[0009] As a preferred solution of the utility model, a first silicone ring is arranged at the bottom of the annular end of the first annular limit seat protruding from the circumferential side wall of the probe in the direction around the circumferential side wall of the probe, and a second silicone ring is arranged at the top of the annular end of the second annular limit seat protruding from the circumferential side wall of the probe in the direction around the circumferential side wall of the probe, and the second silicone ring cooperates with the first silicone ring to seal and limit the condom in the annular clamping groove.
[0010] As a preferred solution of the utility model, a circle of limiting grooves is provided on the side wall of the probe located in the annular clamping groove around the cross section of the probe body.
[0011] As a preferred solution of the present invention, the second silicone ring is the same length as the first silicone ring and the interface ends conflict with each other, and the second silicone ring and the first silicone ring are symmetrically arranged about the symmetry axis of the first annular limit seat and the second annular limit seat.
[0012] As a preferred solution of the utility model, one end of the first annular limiting seat and the second annular limiting seat away from the side wall of the probe are both configured as protruding structures protruding outward.
[0013] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model further provides the following technical solutions:
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] The ultrasonic probe forms an annular clamping groove between the first annular limiting seat and the second annular limiting seat to limit the rubber ring on the condom on the ultrasonic probe. On the one hand, it can reduce the possibility of the condom sliding downward from the probe. On the other hand, medical staff can also judge whether the condom shows signs of sliding downward through the positional relationship between the annular clamping groove and the rubber ring on the condom, thereby avoiding cross infection during the use of the ultrasonic probe.

[0023] The following is a specific embodiment of the present invention. People familiar with the technology can easily understand the other advantages and functions of the present invention from the contents disclosed in this specification. Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a vaginal probe for preventing condom from slipping down, comprising a probe 1, one end of which is connected to a monitoring device via a wire, and the other end is inserted into the vagina for detection, a limited clamping mechanism 2 is arranged on the outer side of the circumference of the probe 1 away from the end of the probe 1 inserted into the vagina, and the open end of the condom is fixed on the probe 1 under the limiting action of the limited clamping mechanism 2.
[0025] When in use, put the condom on the probe 1 and continuously move the condom upward until the fixed end of the condom is placed in the limiting clamping mechanism 2. Since the fixed end of the condom is in a circular ring shape and has a certain degree of shrinkage, the limiting clamping mechanism 2 can limit and fix the fixed end of the condom.
[0026] The probe 1 is cylindrical in shape. When a condom is directly put on the probe 1, since the body of the probe 1 is linear, the condom put on it will slide along the probe 1 under the action of external force, thereby causing the condom to slip off. In order to reduce the sliding of the condom, it is necessary to set a structure on the body of the probe 1 to prevent the condom from sliding down. For this purpose, a limiting structure for preventing the condom from sliding down is provided.
[0027] Specifically, Figure 1-2 As shown, the limiting clamping mechanism 2 includes a first annular limiting seat 21 and a second annular limiting seat 22. Both the first annular limiting seat 21 and the second annular limiting seat 22 are protruded and fixedly connected to the end of the probe 1, and the first annular limiting seat 21 is located above the second annular limiting seat 22. An annular clamping groove is formed between the first annular limiting seat 21 and the second annular limiting seat 22, and the condom is limited on the probe 1 under the limiting action of the annular clamping groove.
[0028] The fixed end of the condom is stretched into an annular clamping groove between the first annular limiting seat 21 and the second annular limiting seat 22, and the fixed end of the condom with telescopic elasticity is tightly clamped in the annular clamping groove. The first annular limiting seat 21 and the second annular limiting seat 22 protrude from the side wall of the probe 1, and the protruding parts block the sliding path of the condom.
[0029] Since the annular clamping groove formed by the first annular limit seat 21 and the second annular limit seat 22 is in an open state, the condom sleeved on the probe 1 may slip out. In order to close the open part and open it automatically during the closure, a structure for closing the opening of the annular clamping groove is provided.
[0030] Specifically, Figure 1-3 As shown, a first silicone ring 24 is arranged at the bottom of the annular end of the first annular limiting seat 21 protruding from the circumferential side wall of the probe 1 in the direction around the circumferential side wall of the probe 1, and a second silicone ring 25 is arranged at the top of the annular end of the second annular limiting seat 22 protruding from the circumferential side wall of the probe 1 in the direction around the circumferential side wall of the probe 1. The second silicone ring 25 cooperates with the first silicone ring 24 to seal and limit the condom in the annular clamping groove.
[0031] The second silicone ring 25 and the first silicone ring 24 have a certain elasticity, can be deformed after being squeezed and can automatically recover after the squeezing force is removed, and the fixed end of the condom sleeved on the probe 1 squeezes the connection between the second silicone ring 25 and the first silicone ring 24. At this time, a certain gap is generated at the connection, and the fixed end of the condom enters the annular clamping groove along the gap. After the fixed end of the condom enters the annular clamping groove, the second silicone ring 25 and the first silicone ring 24 are quickly closed. Due to the thin thickness of the thin wall of the condom, the closed second silicone ring 25 and the first silicone ring 24 can also clamp the thin wall of the condom, further limiting and fixing the condom, and a closed annular space is formed between the second silicone ring 25, the first silicone ring 24 and the annular clamping groove, and the fixed end of the condom is limited therein.
[0032] In order to make the fixed end of the condom fit more closely on the probe 1, the sliding of the condom can be further reduced.
[0033] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, a circle of limiting grooves 23 are provided around the cross section of the probe body of the probe 1 on the side wall of the probe 1 in the annular clamping groove.
[0034] In order to ensure the sealing of the open part of the annular clamp groove and reduce the possibility of wrinkling of the thin wall of the condom, certain restrictions are imposed on the length of the closed structure at the open part.
[0035] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, the second silicone ring 25 has the same length as the first silicone ring 24 and their interface ends are in conflict with each other. The second silicone ring 25 and the first silicone ring 24 are symmetrically arranged about the symmetry axis of the first annular limiting seat 21 and the second annular limiting seat 22 .
[0036] Further, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, the ends of the first annular limit seat 21 and the second annular limit seat 22 away from the side wall of the probe 1 are both configured as protruding structures protruding outward, and the outer ends of the protruding structures are relatively smooth without forming sharp corners, thereby reducing damage to the thin wall of the condom.
[0037] The above embodiments are only exemplary embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. The protection scope of the present application is defined by the claims. Those skilled in the art may make various modifications or equivalent substitutions to the present application within the essence and protection scope of the present application, and such modifications or equivalent substitutions shall also be deemed to fall within the protection scope of the present application.
