Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical devices, and particularly relates to a closed-type condensate water treatment device for a ventilator. Background Technique
[0002] Ventilators are commonly used in clinical practice for the prevention and treatment of respiratory failure. A heating and humidifying system is usually provided inside the ventilator to process the gas, making the temperature inside the ventilator higher than the room temperature. The humid gas is extremely easy to condense and accumulate on the inner wall of the pipeline. Such a humid environment is prone to bacterial colonization, and there is a risk of condensate water flowing back into the humidification tank and the patient's airway. Moreover, a large amount of condensate water remains on the inner wall of the ventilator pipeline, which is likely to cause the lumen to narrow and increase the resistance of the gas flow. Currently, most ventilators on the market are generally equipped with a water collection cup to collect and treat the condensate water, and the condensate water in the water collection cup needs to be poured manually. However, since the water collection cup needs to be unscrewed manually during the pouring process, this process causes the opening of the ventilator pipeline, affects the normal air supply of the ventilator, and is not conducive to the recovery of the patient's respiratory function. At the same time, the condensate water is extremely easy to splash onto the operator's hands, body parts and the surrounding environment of the bed during the pouring process, seriously increasing the risk of cross-infection, not being conducive to the recovery of the patient, and increasing the occupational exposure risk of medical staff.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to design a closed-type condensate water treatment device for a ventilator that can effectively overcome the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a closed-type condensate water treatment device for a ventilator, which can collect and discharge the condensate water appearing in the ventilator pipeline in a fully closed manner, without unscrewing or disassembling the water collection cup for pouring, ensuring that the ventilator pipeline is always in a closed state during the condensate water collection process and the condensate water discharge process, and reducing the risk of infection.

[0040] Optionally, in some embodiments, the connecting end cover 1 and the water accumulation cup 2 are integrally connected, so that the inner cavity of the connecting end cover 1 and the inner cavity of the water accumulation cup 2 form a closed liquid - collecting space.

[0044] The upper valve disc 31 is located below the liquid inlet plate 21 and the liquid inlet plug 311 is arranged on the upper end face of the upper valve disc 31, and the lower valve disc 32 is located above the liquid discharge plate 22 and the liquid discharge plug 321 is arranged on the lower end face of the lower valve disc 32.
