Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a fungal sampling device. Background Technique

[0002] Dermatology is a branch of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of skin diseases and related problems. This includes common skin problems such as eczema, acne, rashes, skin infections, and more serious diseases such as skin cancer. For patients with skin diseases caused by fungal infections, sampling tests are required to confirm the cause and avoid misdiagnosis.

[0003] Currently, when sampling the skin, a scraper is usually used to scrape the skin in the infected area. During the scraping process, skin debris is not easy to collect and is prone to falling off, which not only affects the sampling efficiency, but also if others come into contact with the fallen debris, it is easy to cause skin infections, increasing the risk of disease transmission. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a fungal sampling device that is convenient for collecting skin samples and avoids the falling of samples.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution of the utility model is as follows.

[0006] A fungal sampling device includes a handle and a collection bottle. An installation groove is opened at the bottom of the handle, an installation block is arranged inside the installation groove, a scraper is installed on the outer surface of the installation block, a jack is opened on the side surface of the installation block, and an installation mechanism capable of being inserted and matched with the jack is arranged on the outer surface of the handle. A groove is opened on one side surface of the handle away from the installation mechanism, a negative pressure tube is arranged inside the groove, a sector-shaped suction nozzle is installed at one end of the negative pressure tube, and the sector-shaped suction nozzle is arranged outside the cutting edge of the scraper. A connection end is installed at the other end of the negative pressure tube, and the connection end is adapted to the upper end of the collection bottle. A connection tube is installed at the lower end of the collection bottle, a filter screen is arranged inside the connection tube, and an exhaust fan is installed on the outer surface of the handle through a lifting mechanism, and the upper end of the exhaust fan is adapted to the connection tube.

[0007] It can be seen that through the setting of the installation mechanism, it is convenient to replace the scraper, thus avoiding the situation of cross-infection caused by the repeated use of the scraper. By generating suction with the exhaust fan and acting on the sector-shaped suction nozzle, the skin sample debris scraped by the scraper can be sucked into the collection bottle for collection, which not only improves the sampling efficiency, but also avoids the situation of infecting others due to the falling of the sample. Through the setting of the lifting mechanism, after sampling, the exhaust fan can be driven to move downward, which is convenient for removing the collection bottle and taking it to the inspection department for inspection.

[0008] Further, the installation mechanism includes an inner groove opened inside the handle. A plug rod is inserted into the inner groove. A shoulder is provided on the outer surface of the plug rod. A spring is sleeved on the outer surface of the plug rod, and both ends of the spring abut against the shoulder and the inner wall of the inner groove respectively.

[0009] When replacing the scraper, first pull the plug rod outwards to extract its end from the jack, and then the scraper can be removed. When installing the scraper, first pull the plug rod to drive the contraction of its end, then insert the installation block into the installation groove. When the jack is aligned with the plug rod, the plug rod can be released. Under the elastic force of the spring, the plug rod is inserted into the jack to fix the installation block, thereby realizing the quick replacement of the scraper.

[0010] Further, the lifting mechanism includes two side grooves opened on both side surfaces of the handle. Threaded rods are rotatably installed inside the two side grooves. A nut seat is installed on the outer surface of the threaded rod. An L-shaped connecting plate is installed on the outer surface of the nut seat, and the end of the L-shaped connecting plate is connected to the outer surface of the exhaust fan.

[0011] When sampling a patient, first insert the connecting pipe at the bottom of the collection bottle into the upper end of the exhaust fan, then rotate the threaded rod to drive the nut seat to rise, and drive the exhaust fan to rise through the connection of the L-shaped connecting plate. The exhaust fan drives the collection bottle to rise and makes its upper end insert into the connection end and abut tightly. At this time, both the upper and lower ends of the collection bottle are sealed. Then start the exhaust fan. The suction generated by the exhaust fan can act on the fan-shaped suction nozzle through the collection bottle and the negative pressure pipe, and achieve the purpose of sucking skin sample debris.

[0012] Further, the upper ends of both threaded rods penetrate to the outside of the handle and are provided with a pulley group in a transmission manner. A knob is installed at the upper end of one of the threaded rods.

[0013] Through the setting of the pulley group, when the knob is turned, both threaded rods can be driven to rotate simultaneously, and then the exhaust fan can be driven to lift and lower simultaneously through the two L-shaped connecting plates, improving the stability of the exhaust fan when lifting and lowering.

[0014] Further, a positioning groove is opened inside the installation block, and a positioning rod is installed inside the installation groove, and the positioning rod is adapted to the positioning groove.

[0015] Through the setting of the positioning groove and the positioning rod, when installing the scraper, the installation block can be positioned, thereby improving the accuracy of the docking between the plug rod and the jack.

[0016] Further, a pull block is installed at the end of the plug rod away from the jack, and an anti-slip pad is provided on the outer surface of the pull block.

[0017] Through the setting of the pull block and the anti-slip pad, it is convenient to pull the plug rod outwards and avoid the situation of hand slipping. Description of the Drawings
