Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical instruments, in particular to an oxygen tube for monitoring oxygen use time. Background Art

[0002] Oxygen tubes are pipes or lines used to deliver oxygen to the patient's body. Its function is to deliver oxygen from an oxygen source (such as an oxygen cylinder or oxygen generator) to the patient's respiratory system to provide the oxygen needed by the patient. Oxygen tubes are usually used in conjunction with equipment such as oxygen masks, oxygen catheters or oxygen breathing tubes to deliver oxygen to the patient's mouth and nose to help the patient breathe.

[0003] When oxygen is used, there are cost issues involved, which are generally charged according to the time of use. Intermittent oxygen inhalation is mainly achieved by nursing staff through manual recording and weighted calculation when the patient is discharged from the hospital. Clinically, the vast majority of patients inhale oxygen intermittently. Nursing staff need to record the start and stop of oxygen and need to constantly go back and forth between the bed and the nurse station, which increases non-direct nursing work to a certain extent and is a waste of nursing human resources. In addition, the oxygen inhalation time is related to medical expenses. If it cannot be accurately grasped, medical disputes are prone to occur. Utility Model Content

[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0024] See also Figures 1 to 5 The utility model provides a technical solution: an oxygen tube for monitoring oxygen usage time, comprising an oxygen tube body 1, a device tube 2 is arranged on one side of the oxygen tube body 1, a timer 3 is fixedly connected to one end of the device tube 2 away from the oxygen tube body 1, a start key 4 is arranged on the timer 3, the start key 4 is located inside the device tube 2, a trigger component for triggering the start key 4 is arranged inside the device tube 2, and a reset key 5 is arranged on the top of the timer 3.

[0025] The start button 4 is relatively sensitive and can start the timer 3 when pressed with a relatively small force. When in use, one end of the oxygen tube body 1 is first connected to the oxygen inhaler and the other end is covered on the patient's face. Then the oxygen inhaler is turned on, and oxygen enters the oxygen tube body 1 from the oxygen inhaler and enters the device tube 2. The start button 4 for starting the timer 3 is triggered by the trigger component to start the oxygen usage timing. When the oxygen stops entering the interior of the oxygen tube body 1, the trigger component stops triggering the timer 3, and the timer 3 stops timing. When oxygen enters the oxygen tube body 1 again, the timer 3 continues to time. In this way, intermittent timing can be performed and accumulated, and the time is visible, which is convenient for family members to observe and for medical staff to observe the time. The oxygen usage time can be more accurately grasped, and the oxygen usage cost disputes caused by inaccurate oxygen usage time can be reduced. In addition, the oxygen tube has a low cost and is suitable for disposable use.

[0026] Furthermore, the trigger assembly includes an extrusion airbag 6 fixedly connected to the end of the device tube 2, the extrusion airbag 6 is located inside the oxygen tube body 1, the inner wall of the device tube 2 is configured with an annular groove 7, and a movable part is arranged inside the annular groove 7.

[0027] See also Figure 2 , Figure 3 The squeezing airbag 6 is made of an elastic material and is connected to the device tube 2. When oxygen enters the interior of the oxygen tube body 1, the gas pressure inside the oxygen tube body 1 will increase, and at the same time, the squeezing airbag 6 will be squeezed to reduce the internal space of the squeezing airbag 6 and increase the pressure. This will give a certain pressure to the movable part, causing the movable part to move in the annular groove 7, thereby applying a certain pressure to the start key 4, causing the timer 3 to start timing.

[0028] Furthermore, the movable part includes a movable piston 8 slidably connected inside the annular groove 7 .

[0029] See also Figure 3 When the internal space of the extrusion airbag 6 decreases and the pressure increases, the air pressure inside the device tube 2 connected to the extrusion airbag 6 increases, which will cause the moving piston 8 to move in the annular groove 7. When the moving piston 8 moves a certain distance, it will touch the start button 4 on the timer 3, causing the timer 3 to start timing.

[0030] Furthermore, the movable part includes a magnet 1 9 and a magnet 2 10 movably connected inside the annular groove 7, and the repelling sides of the magnet 1 9 and the magnet 2 10 are opposite to each other.

[0031] See also Figure 5 When the internal space of the squeezing airbag 6 decreases and the pressure increases, the air pressure inside the device tube 2 connected to the squeezing airbag 6 increases, which will drive the magnet 1 9 to move in the annular groove 7. When the distance between the magnet 1 9 and the magnet 2 10 decreases, the magnet 2 10 will also move in the annular groove 7 under the repulsive force of the magnet 1 9, thereby squeezing the start button 4 on the timer 3, causing the timer 3 to start timing.

[0032] Furthermore, an anti-accidental-touch cover 11 is disposed outside the reset button 5 .

[0033] See also Figure 3 The anti-accidental touch cover 11 is provided to prevent personnel from accidentally pressing the reset button 5, causing the data recorded by the timer 3 to be lost.

[0034] Furthermore, a magnet three 12 is provided at the bottom of the anti-accidental-touch cover 11 , and a magnet four 13 is provided at a position corresponding to the magnet three 12 on the timer 3 .

[0035] See also Figure 3 , Figure 4 The magnetic force between magnet three 12 and magnet four 13 is relatively strong. When magnet three 12 and magnet four 13 are attracted together, personnel cannot separate them manually. When the anti-accidental touch cover 11 needs to be opened, medical staff need to use a magnet with stronger magnetism to separate them. This can prevent unrelated personnel from accidentally touching the reset button 5 on the timer 3, but still allow medical staff to operate it.

[0036] Furthermore, the device tube 2 is made of a transparent material.

[0037] See also Figure 5 , which makes it easier to observe the internal situation.

[0038] Furthermore, the device tube 2 is located at one end of the oxygen tube body 1 close to the oxygen inhaler.

[0039] See also Figure 1In this way, the timer 3 will not affect the patient and it is also convenient for medical staff to grasp the oxygen inhalation time.

[0040] Working principle: When the oxygen tube for monitoring oxygen use time is used, first connect one end of the oxygen tube body 1 to the oxygen inhaler, and cover the other end on the patient's face, then press the reset button 5 on the timer 3 to return the reading of the timer 3 to zero, and then cover the outside of the reset button 5 with the anti-mistaken touch cover 11 to make the magnet three 12 and the magnet four 13 magnetically attracted together, and then open the oxygen inhaler, oxygen enters the oxygen tube body 1 from the oxygen inhaler, the gas pressure inside the oxygen tube body 1 will increase, and at the same time, the squeezing airbag 6 will be squeezed to reduce the internal space of the squeezing airbag 6, increase the pressure, and increase the gas pressure inside the device tube 2 connected to the squeezing airbag 6, which will cause the moving piston 8 to move in the annular groove 7. When the moving piston 8 moves a certain distance, it will touch the start button 4 on the timer 3, so that the timer 3 starts timing.

[0041] When no oxygen enters the oxygen tube body 1, the gas pressure inside the oxygen tube body 1 will decrease, and at the same time, the squeezing airbag 6 will not be squeezed. The squeezing airbag 6 returns to its original position, and the moving piston 8 returns to its original position under the action of gravity. The start button 4 on the timer 3 also returns to its original position, and the timer 3 stops timing.

[0042] The standard parts used in this embodiment can be purchased directly from the market, and the non-standard structural components recorded in the specification and the drawings can also be directly processed according to the existing technical common sense. At the same time, the connection method of each component adopts the mature conventional means in the prior art, and the machinery, parts and equipment all adopt the conventional models in the prior art, so no specific description will be given here.

[0043] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
