Then, nitrogen is continuously filled into the drying cabinet to prevent external air from entering the drying cabinet and contaminating the endoscope. However, when nitrogen is filled, it will push the drawer of the drying cabinet outward, resulting in external air entering the drying cabinet through the drawer, thus contaminating the endoscope after cleaning.

[0022] In view of this, the present utility model provides an endoscope drying cabinet. The nitrogen in the gas cylinder is discharged outward from the air outlet pipe through the exhaust pipe. The nitrogen enters the inside of the drawer. The nitrogen can cooperate with the ultraviolet lamp to disinfect the endoscope. The drawer is fixed by a fixing device to prevent the nitrogen from pushing the drawer open after entering the inside of the drawer and prevent external air from entering the inside of the drawer, thereby contaminating the endoscope after cleaning.

A plurality of air outlet pipes 9 are communicated with the inner wall of the exhaust pipe 7, and the air outlet pipes 9 extend into the inside of the drying cabinet main body 4. A plurality of ultraviolet lamps 10 are installed inside the drying cabinet main body 4. A plurality of one-way valves 11 are installed on the inner wall of the drying cabinet main body 4. The endoscope drying cabinet further includes: a fixing device 2, installed inside the drying cabinet main body 4; a mounting device 5, provided inside the drying cabinet main body 4; a drying device 8, installed inside the drying cabinet main body 4; wherein, the fixing device 2 can fix the drawer 1 inside the drying cabinet main body 4, the mounting device 5 facilitates the installation of the gas cylinder 6, and the drying device 8 can dry the endoscope.

[0024] In the specific implementation process, it is particularly worth noting that when the ultraviolet lamp 10 works, it sterilizes the surface of the endoscope. The ultraviolet lamp 10 is a prior art, and its model is not specifically limited as long as it meets the usage requirements. The gas cylinder 6 discharges nitrogen from the air outlet pipe 9 through the exhaust pipe 7. Place the endoscope inside the drawer 1, and fix the drawer 1 through the fixing device 2 to prevent nitrogen from entering the inside of the drawer 1 and then pushing the drawer 1 open. Use the drying device 8 to dry the endoscope, and fix the gas cylinder 6 through the installation device 5, which facilitates the replacement of the gas cylinder 6 after the nitrogen inside the gas cylinder 6 is used up;

[0025] Specifically, when using this endoscope drying cabinet, fix the gas cylinder 6 through the installation device 5. After the gas cylinder 6 is installed, open the valve, and use the drying device 8 to dry the endoscope. The water vapor generated during drying is discharged outward through the one-way valve 11. Control the operation of multiple solenoid valves through the external control panel. The solenoid valves control whether the multiple air outlet pipes 9 exhaust outward. The solenoid valves are prior art, and their models are not specifically limited as long as they meet the usage requirements. The multiple solenoid valves can work independently and can control nitrogen to enter the inside of the drawer 1 in sequence. Place the endoscope inside the drawer 1, and the fixing device 2 fixes the drawer 1 to prevent the gas from pushing the drawer 1 open.
