[0039] The embodiment of the present application provides a splash shield for a manual cleaning pool for medical devices, thereby solving the technical problem in the prior art of lacking protective devices for the surrounding environment and surface of objects in the cleaning pool when manually cleaning reusable medical devices, which easily leads to environmental pollution and contamination of surrounding objects.
[0040] In order to better understand the above technical solution, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0041] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, one or more embodiments of the present application provide a splash shield for a manual cleaning pool for medical devices, the splash shield comprising a first half shield 10 and a second half shield 20 rotatably connected to the first half shield 10, wherein:
[0042] When the second half cover 20 rotates toward the direction where the first half cover 10 is located, the second half cover 20 can be stored in the first half cover 10;
[0043] When the second half cover 20 rotates in a direction away from the first half cover 10, the second half cover 20 and the first half cover 10 are connected to form a cover body that can be placed on the cleaning pool;
[0044] The second half cover 20 is also provided with an operation opening 40 for a hand to enter the cover to clean the medical device.
[0045] It can be known from the above description that the splash shield described in the embodiment of the present application is provided with a first half shield 10 and a second half shield 20 which are rotatably connected. When the medical device is manually cleaned, the first half shield 10 is placed on the front half of the cleaning pool, and then the second half shield 20 is rotated so that the second half shield 20 is placed on the rear half of the cleaning pool. The second half shield 20 and the first half shield 10 can be docked to form a shield body covering the entire cleaning pool (the faucet is also located in the shield body). Figure 1 , 4 As shown in Figure 7, at this time, the operator can put both hands into the cover through the operation port 40 to clean the medical device. In this way, the splash shield can control the splash pollution range generated during the cleaning process within the cleaning pool. The splash shield is a semi-enclosed design, which can not only prevent the spillage and diffusion of pollutants and aerosols, avoid occupational exposure, but also improve the sterilization qualification rate and reuse rate of reusable medical devices after cleaning;
[0046] In addition, the splash shield has a simple structure, low cost, light weight, can be moved at any time, and can be used anytime after installation. It is suitable for daily use in related departments such as disinfection supply centers and operating rooms, and is very practical.
[0047] In addition, when the splash shield is not in use, the second half shield 20 can be rotated to be stored in the first half shield 10, such as Figure 2 , 5 As shown, the occupied space is further reduced, which is convenient for storage and transportation;
[0048] Therefore, the splash shield described in the embodiment of the present application effectively solves the technical problem in the prior art that when manually cleaning reusable medical devices, there is a lack of protective devices for the surrounding environment of the cleaning pool and the surface of objects, which easily leads to environmental pollution and pollution of surrounding objects.
[0049] In one embodiment of the present application, the first half cover 10 and the second half cover 20 are both made of transparent materials. Specifically, the first half cover 10 and the second half cover 20 are transparent, which is convenient for the operator to observe and operate the medical device at a close distance when cleaning it, and to inspect the medical device at a close distance through the cover. For example, the transparent material can be polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or polypropylene (PP), which is corrosion-resistant, scrub-resistant, sterilizable, and reusable, so as to further reduce the use cost.
[0050] In one embodiment of the present application, Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a handle 50 is provided on the second half cover 20. Holding the handle 50 can facilitate driving the second half cover 20 to rotate relative to the first half cover 10, which is convenient, labor-saving and easy to operate.
[0051] In one embodiment of the present application, Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the operation opening 40 includes two independently set ones for the left hand and the right hand to insert respectively. Compared with only one operation opening 40 for both hands to insert, the two independently set operation openings 40 can reduce the opening area of the splash guard while ensuring the range of movement of both hands, thereby improving the protection effect.
[0052] In one embodiment of the present application, Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the first half cover 10 and the second half cover 20 are axially connected. Specifically, the rotating shaft 30 is fixedly arranged on the first half cover 10, and the second half cover 20 is rotatably arranged on the rotating shaft 30, thereby realizing the axial connection between the first half cover 10 and the second half cover 20.
[0053] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 7 As shown, the first half cover 10 includes a first cover surface 11 enclosing a first operating space a, a first opening 12 is provided on the bottom surface of the first cover surface 11, and a part of the cover is disposed on the cleaning pool and communicated with the cleaning pool, and a second opening 13 is provided on the inner side of the first cover surface 11;
[0054] The second half cover 20 includes a second cover surface 21 enclosing a second operating space b, a third opening 22 is provided on the bottom surface of the second cover surface 21, and a portion of the cover is disposed on the cleaning pool and communicated with the cleaning pool, and a fourth opening 23 is provided on the inner side of the second cover surface 21;
[0055] During the rotation of the second half cover 20 relative to the first half cover 10, the second half cover 20 enters or exits the first operating space a through the second opening 13, and the second half cover 20 has a first position and a second position during the rotation relative to the first half cover 10, wherein:
[0056] When the second half cover 20 is located at the first position, the second half cover 20 is received into the first operating space a through the second opening 13. Figure 2 , 5 As shown;
[0057] When the second half cover 20 is located at the second position, the second cover surface 21 is connected to the first cover surface 11 to form the cover body that can be covered on the entire cleaning pool, and the first operating space a is connected to the second operating space b through the second opening 13 and the fourth opening 23, and the cover body is connected to the cleaning pool below through the first opening 12 and the third opening 22. Figure 1 , 4 shown.
[0058] In this way, the splash guard is very convenient to unfold and store, and is very suitable for daily cleaning operations of medical devices in relevant departments such as disinfection supply centers and operating rooms, and is worthy of being vigorously promoted and used.
[0059] In one embodiment of the present application, the outer edge of the second half cover 20 is recessed toward itself to form the operation port 40 .
[0060] Furthermore, the operation opening 40 is in an arc shape, such as a semicircular or semi-elliptical shape, to improve the comfort of use.
[0061] In one embodiment of the present application, the cross-sectional shape of the first half cover 10 and the second half cover 20 is fan-shaped. Thus, when the second half cover 20 is located at the second position, the cross-sectional shape of the cover body formed by the first half cover 10 and the second half cover 20 is semicircular, and the entire protective cover is half cylindrical, which can ensure a higher operating space and match the shape of the cleaning pool at the bottom (generally rectangular). In addition, the outer side surfaces of the first half cover 10 and the second half cover 20 are both one-piece arcs, which can reduce dead angles and thus reduce dirt residue.
[0062] In addition, the radius of the second half cover 20 may be slightly smaller than the radius of the first half cover 10, so that the second half cover 20 can be accommodated in the first operating space a of the first half cover 10. Of course, when the thickness of the first half cover 10 is sufficient, the first half cover 10 can also be hollowed out along the thickness of the first half cover 10 to form a cavity, so that the second half cover 20 can be accommodated in the cavity. This is not limited here.
[0063] Furthermore, the rotating shaft 30 is arranged at the center of the sector.
[0064] An exemplary method of using a splash guard for a manual cleaning pool for medical devices provided in an embodiment of the present application is as follows:
[0065] The first half cover 10 is placed on the front half of the cleaning tank, and then the second half cover 20 is rotated out of the first half cover 10 to be placed on the back half of the cleaning tank. The second half cover 20 is docked with the first half cover 10 to form a cover body that can be placed on the entire cleaning tank (the faucet is also located in the cover body); then, the operator inserts both hands into the cover body through the two operating ports 40 to clean the medical equipment; after the cleaning of the medical equipment is completed, the second half cover 20 can be rotated into the first half cover 10.
[0066] It should be understood that although the terms "first", "second", etc. may be used herein to describe various units, these units should not be limited by these terms. These terms are used only to distinguish one unit from another. For example, a first unit may be referred to as a second unit, and similarly, a second unit may be referred to as a first unit without departing from the scope of the exemplary embodiments.
[0067] The directional terms such as outer, middle, inner, etc. mentioned or may be mentioned in this specification are defined relative to the structures shown in the drawings. They are relative concepts and may change accordingly according to different positions and different usage conditions. Therefore, these or other directional terms should not be interpreted as restrictive terms.
[0068] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, and is not any formal or substantial limitation to the present application. It should be pointed out that ordinary technicians in this technical field can make several improvements and supplements without departing from the method of the present application, and these improvements and supplements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present utility model. Any technician familiar with this profession can make some changes, modifications and evolutions of the technical content disclosed above without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, which are equivalent embodiments of the present application; at the same time, any changes, modifications and evolutions of any equivalent changes made to the above embodiments based on the substantial technology of the present application are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present application.
