[0003] At present, for traditional medical device connecting pipes, threaded joints are provided at the ends of the connecting pipes, and the connection between the connecting pipe and the medical device is achieved through the threaded joints. Among them, the connection between the connecting pipe and the threaded joint is to apply sealant at the connection, and it is used after the sealant dries.

[0004] However, over time, the sealant material may gradually age and harden due to environmental factors such as ultraviolet rays, temperature changes, pollution, etc., thus losing its original bonding ability and resulting in detachment; or the sealant is not applied under appropriate temperature, humidity and other conditions during construction, the coating is uneven, and the curing time is not sufficient, etc., resulting in the detachment of the sealant after long-term use; or the connecting pipe is often pulled, and the connection part between the connecting pipe and the threaded joint is excessively worn during use, and the bonding force of the sealant may be weakened, resulting in detachment. All of the above will affect the sealing performance between the connecting pipe and the threaded joint and cannot ensure the safety and reliability of the medical process.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0026] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0027] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to fully understand the present utility model. However, the present utility model can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present utility model is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0028] Such as Figures 1-5As shown in the figure, the present utility model provides a medical device connecting tube with high sealing performance, including a connecting tube 100 and a joint 200 connected to the connecting tube 100 and used for connecting to a medical device. The joint 200 includes an outer tube 201, an inner tube 202 is fixedly connected inside the outer tube 201, a sealing component is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the inner tube 202, the connecting tube 100 can be sleeved on the inner tube 202 and the sealing component, and a low-tightening component 300 is arranged on the outer tube 201. The low-tightening component 300 clamps the connecting tube 100 on the outer wall of the inner tube 202.

[0029] In this embodiment, the connecting tube 100 is a component made of medical-grade TPE thermoplastic elastomer material. The connecting tube 100 has elastic properties of a cross-linked network at normal temperature; the elasticity of the connecting tube 100 can ensure that the connecting tube 100 is sleeved on the inner tube 202 and the sealing component and fits with both of them, and will produce a small deformation when being squeezed.

[0030] In this embodiment, the sealing component includes a front sleeve ring 203 and a rear sleeve ring 204 fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the inner ring. An annular groove is formed between the front sleeve ring 203 and the rear sleeve ring 204, and a first sealing ring 205 is clamped and arranged in the annular groove. A second sealing ring 206 is embedded and installed on the side of the rear sleeve ring 204 away from the front sleeve ring 203. When the connecting tube 100 is sleeved on the inner tube 202, both the first sealing ring 205 and the second sealing ring 206 are in contact with the inner wall of the connecting tube 100.

[0031] In this embodiment, the low-tightening component 300 includes two low-tightening half rings 301 symmetrically arranged up and down. Nuts 302 are fixedly connected to both of the two low-tightening half rings 301. A bidirectional screw 303 is rotatably arranged inside the outer tube 201. Both of the two nuts 302 are threadedly connected to the bidirectional screw 303, and the two nuts 302 are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the bidirectional screw 303; when the bidirectional screw 303 rotates, the nuts 302 drive the low-tightening half rings 301 to move towards the connecting tube 100 and clamp on the surface of the connecting tube 100.

[0032] In this embodiment, a plurality of pressing plates 304 distributed in a circumferential array are fixedly connected to the inner sides of the two low-tightening half rings 301, and the pressing plates 304 are bent; the pressing plates 304 improve the clamping strength and apply pressures in different directions, which can prevent the connecting tube 100 from being accidentally pulled off.

[0033] In this embodiment, a guide rod 305 is fixedly connected inside the outer tube 201. The guide rod 305 penetrates through the two low-tightening half rings 301 and is symmetrically arranged with the bidirectional screw 303; the movement of the low-tightening half rings 301 is limited by the guide rod 305.

[0034] In this embodiment, a cross countersunk bolt 306 is inserted through the top of the outer tube 201, and the bottom end of the cross countersunk bolt 306 penetrates to the inside of the outer tube 201 and is connected to the top end of the bidirectional screw 303; the rotation of the bidirectional screw 303 is conveniently controlled by the cross countersunk bolt 306, improving the usability.

[0035] In this embodiment, one end of the inner tube 202 is provided with an internal thread for connecting to a medical device, and a third sealing ring 207 is embedded and installed on one side of the outer tube 201. When the inner tube 202 is connected to the medical device through the internal thread, the third sealing ring 207 can fit the medical device; sealing is performed between the docking head 200 and the medical device.

[0036] Usage method and working principle of this device:

[0037] When this device is in use, first connect the inner tube 202 to a medical device (not shown) through the internal thread, and seal between the docking head 200 and the medical device through the thread and the third sealing ring 207;

[0038] Secondly, put the connecting tube 100 on the inner tube 202. Since the connecting tube 100 is made of medical-grade TPE thermoplastic elastomer material and has elastic properties at room temperature, during the process of putting the connecting tube 100 on the inner tube 202, it squeezes through the front collar 203 and continues to extend in. Its elasticity can ensure that the connecting tube 100 is put on the inner tube 202 and the sealing assembly and fits with both of them;

[0039] Subsequently, control the cross countersunk bolt 306 with a screwdriver to drive the bidirectional screw 303 to rotate. Through screw drive, the nut 302 drives the low-tightening half-ring 301 to move towards the connecting tube 100 and clamp on the surface of the connecting tube 100. The connecting tube 100 undergoes a small elastic deformation under the clamping force, so that the connecting tube 100 is fixed on the inner tube 202 and fits tightly with the inner tube 202. Together with the first sealing ring 205 and the second sealing ring 206, a high sealing performance is achieved between the connecting tube 100 and the inner tube 202;

[0040] In the above process, when the low-tightening half-ring 301 clamps the connecting tube 100, the pressing plate 304 also moves along and clamps on the surface of the connecting tube 100, improving the clamping strength. Moreover, the pressing plate 304 is bent. When the connecting tube 100 is pulled, it is necessary to overcome the pressure of the low-tightening half-ring 301 and also the pressure of the pressing plate 304 in different directions, which can prevent the situation that the connecting tube 100 is accidentally pulled off.

[0041] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the present utility model in other forms. Any person skilled in the art may use the technical content disclosed above to make changes or modifications into equivalent embodiments with equivalent changes and apply them to other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present utility model still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
