Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of water storage, in particular to a water tank for an ultrasonic therapeutic apparatus. Background Art

[0002] Ultrasonic therapy device is a medical device that treats subcutaneous tissue diseases based on ultrasonic effect. The ultrasonic generator based on piezoelectric effect can generate a lot of heat during operation, so circulating water is needed for cooling. Therefore, there will be a separate water circulation system in the ultrasonic therapy device. In order to meet the small space use of the hospital, the volume of the ultrasonic therapy device is small, but the circulating water tank also needs to be cleaned in time, and the flat structure of the water tank is very difficult to clean. Therefore, based on the actual situation, our company's R&D personnel arranged the water tank on the side of the ultrasonic therapy device and connected it to the ultrasonic therapy device in a detachable manner. The limited space size limits the ultrasonic therapy device water tank to a flat cavity structure; and in order to prevent the circulating water from spilling out of the water tank when the ultrasonic therapy device is moved, a very small water inlet is set at the top of the water tank. This design brings great inconvenience to cleaning the water tank.

[0003] Therefore, in order to solve the defects of flat structure water tanks that are inconvenient to clean and change water, researchers have designed a water tank with a new structure. Utility Model Content

[0023] Embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, where the same or similar reference numerals represent the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present utility model, but should not be construed as limiting the present utility model.

[0024] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, the present utility model discloses a water tank for an ultrasonic therapeutic apparatus, which includes a lower water tank, an upper water tank, and a sealing cover, and the three constitute the structure of the water tank.

[0025] Embodiment 1:

[0026] The lower water tank includes: a base plate 1. The bottom of the base plate 1 and the lower sealing plate 2 together form a lower water tank with an open top. A card slot 21 for clamping on the body of the ultrasonic therapeutic apparatus is provided on the lower water tank. The structure of the card slot 21 is an inwardly concave U shape, which is convenient for clamping on the body of the ultrasonic therapeutic apparatus. A fixing hole 11 detachably connected to the ultrasonic therapeutic apparatus is provided at the middle position of the upper part of the base plate 1. The fixing hole 11 and the card slot 21 cooperate with a knob or a fixing screw to fix the base plate 1 to the ultrasonic therapeutic apparatus. An inlet 71 and an outlet 72 communicating with the lower water tank are respectively provided at the bottom of the base plate 1. The inlet 71 and the outlet 72 are connected to the circulating water system of the ultrasonic therapeutic apparatus through quick connectors.

[0027] The upper water tank includes: a rigid baffle 3 and a folding plate 4 made of a flexible waterproof material. Specifically, the material of the folding plate 4 is silicone or rubber. The bottom edge of the baffle 3 is flexibly and sealingly connected to the upper edge of the lower sealing plate 2 opposite to the base plate 1. The two opposite edges of the baffle 3 are flexibly and sealingly connected to the base plate 1 through the folding plate 4. The baffle 3, the folding plate 4, the base plate 1, and the lower sealing plate 2 together form a container with an open top. The base plate 1 and the lower sealing plate 2 are both made of transparent acrylic material. The silicone material of the folding plate 4 is connected to the acrylic through glue. As Figure 4 shown, after the baffle 3 is buckled by the short side of the "L" shape of the cover plate 5, the excess flexible material of the folding plate 4 sinks into the interior of the water tank.

[0028] The sealing cover includes: a cover plate 5 with an "L" shape. The long side of the "L" shape of the cover plate 5 is hinged to the base plate 1. A hydrophobic sponge 6 made of a hydrophobic material is fixed on the lower surface of the long side of the "L" shape. The material of the hydrophobic sponge 6 is hydrophobic melamine sponge.

[0029] The advantages of the present utility model are as follows:

[0030] It is convenient to disassemble. When it is necessary to clean the water tank, the water tank as a whole can be disassembled from the card slot 21 and the body of the ultrasonic therapeutic apparatus by removing the screws on the fixing hole 11;

[0031] Convenient for cleaning. Opening the cover plate 5 can unfold the folding plate 4, and the outwardly inclined baffle 3 facilitates the hands of medical staff to directly reach the bottom of the lower water tank.

[0032] The cover plate 5 has a good sealing effect and good air permeability, and can maintain the normal air pressure above the water tank. The short side of the cover plate 5 is stuck on the baffle 3 to play a sealing role; the folding plate 4 is recessed inward, and together with the partition plate 23, it can reduce the amplitude of water sloshing in the water tank. At the same time, the partition plate 23 also plays a supporting role inside the water tank, and the partition plate 23 and the short side of the cover plate 5 fix the baffle 3. The hydrophobic sponge 6 itself has a water-repellent function and an air-permeable function. When the ultrasonic therapeutic apparatus moves, the water in the water tank will not overflow when it encounters the hydrophobic sponge, and the sponge-like hydrophobic sponge has good air permeability and can maintain the air pressure balance on the water surface in the water tank.

[0033] Good heat dissipation effect. The partition plate 23 separates the water inlet 71 and the water outlet 72. The hot water from the water inlet 71 will not directly rush to the vicinity of the water outlet 72. The partition plate 23 forces the hot water to the upper layer of the cooling water in the water tank, and the cooled low-temperature water enters the water outlet 72 from the other side of the partition plate 23.

[0034] It can be seen that the partition plate 23 has multiple functions in the solution of the present utility model.

[0035] Embodiment 2:

[0036] In Embodiment 1, both sides of the folding plate 4 are respectively connected to the baffle 3 and the base plate 1. The different structure compared with Embodiment 1 is that as Figure 1 shown, in Embodiment 2, one side of the folding plate 4 is connected to the baffle 3, and the other side is hermetically connected to the base plate 1 through a rigid connecting plate 22; the connecting plate 22 and the lower sealing plate 2 are of an integrally formed structure; the baffle 3, the folding plate 4, the connecting plate 22, the lower sealing plate 2 and the base plate 1 together form a container with an open top. The rigid connecting plate 22 is also made of acrylic material, and the transparent structure facilitates viewing the water quality and water level.

[0037] After the water tank is cleaned, first insert the card slot 21 of the water tank on the ultrasonic therapeutic apparatus, and then pass the screw through the fixing hole 11 to complete the fixation of the water tank.

[0038] Open the cover plate 5. With the baffle 3 closed, directly add cooling water until the liquid level of the cooling water exceeds the partition plate 23, and then close the cover plate 5. During the process of adding cooling water, the change of the liquid level can be judged by observing the transparent connecting plate 22.
