Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, and particularly relates to an intelligent endoscope storage cabinet. Background Technique

[0002] The flexible endoscope used in the endoscopic center of a hospital belongs to a reusable medical device; after use, it needs to be cleaned, disinfected, and dried first, and then placed in a dedicated endoscope storage cabinet for the next use. The following technical problems still exist when using the endoscope storage cabinet:

[0003] 1. There is a time limit for storing endoscopes. They can be used normally within the specified time. After exceeding the specified time (usually 72 hours), they must be re-cleaned and disinfected before use. Therefore, when taking out an endoscope, it is required to take out the endoscope that has been placed for the longest time first. However, currently, there is no positional relationship among the endoscopes stored in the endoscope cabinet, and it is necessary to manually search for the position of each endoscope one by one when taking them out, which is very cumbersome; if not searched, it is necessary to manually input the storage layer number information each time when putting them in, which will also reduce work efficiency.

[0004] 2. Each time an endoscope is stored or taken out, it is necessary to scan to record the access time. And the number of endoscopes that need to be scanned in the endoscopic center every day is hundreds. Scanning one by one has a large workload, is time-consuming and laborious, and has low efficiency. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] The utility model provides an intelligent endoscope storage cabinet, which can solve the technical problem that the existing endoscope storage cabinet cannot record the positional relationship synchronously when storing, resulting in inconvenient and rapid search when taking out.

[0006] The present application provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] An intelligent endoscope storage cabinet includes a cabinet body, a controller and a display screen are arranged on the cabinet body, a storage cavity is arranged inside the cabinet body, a plurality of placement areas are arranged from top to bottom in the storage cavity, each placement area is provided with a position number, and a placement rack for supporting an endoscope is also arranged on the placement area; a plurality of card readers are also arranged on the side wall of the storage cavity, each layer of placement area corresponds to a card reader, the number of each layer of card reader is the same as the position number of the placement area, and the card reader is electrically connected to the controller.

[0008] Advantageous Effects:

[0009] 1. By setting a card reader on each layer, when the endoscope is deposited, the card reader at the corresponding position reads the chip on the endoscope, and the read information is sent to the controller. The controller sends information such as the information of the endoscope, the deposit time, and the position number of the card reader to the display screen for display, so as to record the placement position while depositing the endoscope. When the endoscope needs to be retrieved, the operator selects the previously deposited endoscope according to the time information displayed on the display screen. At this time, the placement position of the endoscope will also be displayed on the display screen, which is convenient for the operator to quickly find the placement position of the endoscope without searching one by one, making it more convenient to use.

[0010] 2. When the endoscope is placed in the placement rack, the card reader on the corresponding layer can automatically read the chip on the endoscope, and then send the read signal to the controller. After receiving the signal, the controller records the deposit time and the storage position. Compared with the existing technology of setting a scanner outside the storage cabinet and scanning first when depositing and retrieving, this application can reduce the manual scanning process, automatically read by the card reader, reduce the workload, and improve the access efficiency.

[0011] Furthermore, a drying pipeline is provided on the side wall of each placement area. One end of the drying pipeline located in the storage cavity is provided with a plug connector for communicating with the endoscope. A detection component is provided on the drying pipeline, and the detection component is electrically connected to the controller. When the endoscope is connected to the plug connector, the detection component is triggered, and the detection component sends a signal to the controller. After receiving the signal, the controller controls the card reader on the corresponding placement area to start.

[0012] Beneficial effects: The endoscope placed in the storage cabinet usually needs to be connected to the drying pipeline to ensure that the inner cavity of the endoscope is in a dry state. By setting a detection component on the drying pipeline, when drying is carried out by connecting the endoscope, the card reader can be automatically triggered to start, and then the information of the endoscope is sent to the controller. This setting can ensure that the card reader at the corresponding position starts only when an endoscope is placed, and the card readers at other positions do not start. Compared with the prior art, it reduces the scanning operation, simplifies the operation process, and at the same time realizes the precise positioning of the endoscope position. In addition, by triggering the start of the card reader through the detection component, the ineffective start of the card reader can also be reduced, and the service life can be extended.

[0013] Furthermore, an installation area is also provided on the cabinet body. The installation area is arranged side by side with the storage cavity. The drying pipeline is arranged in the installation area and corresponds to several layers of placement areas one by one.

[0014] Beneficial effects: Arranging the drying pipeline in a dedicated installation area is convenient for maintenance and repair.

[0015] Furthermore, the drying pipeline includes a vacuum pump and a connecting pipe. One end of the connecting pipe is connected to the vacuum pump, and the other end is connected to the plug connector located in the storage cavity.

[0016] Beneficial effects: When storing the endoscope, one end of the endoscope is connected to the plug connector. Through the action of the vacuum pump, the air and moisture in the inner cavity of the endoscope can be quickly pumped out, accelerating the drying process.

[0017] Furthermore, the detection component is a differential pressure sensor, and the differential pressure sensor is arranged in the connecting pipe.

[0018] Furthermore, it also includes a female connector that cooperates with the plug connector. The female connector is connected to one end of the endoscope. When the plug connector is not connected to the female connector on the endoscope, the connecting pipe is in a closed state. When the plug connector is connected to the female connector on the endoscope, the connecting pipe is in communication with the endoscope, and the differential pressure sensor detects a signal.

[0019] Beneficial effects: When the endoscope is not connected, a large negative pressure is formed in the connecting pipe. When one end of the endoscope is connected to the plug connector, the connecting pipe is in communication with the endoscope, and the negative pressure in the connecting pipe rapidly decreases. The differential pressure sensor can accurately detect the signal change, thereby sending the signal to the controller. The controller controls the card reader to start reading the endoscope signal and records the storage time and location.

[0020] Furthermore, at least two endoscopes are placed on each placement rack, and a plurality of drying pipelines equal in number to the endoscopes are arranged on the side wall of each placement area.

[0021] Furthermore, a labeling area is also arranged on the inner wall of each layer of placement area. The labeling area is arranged on one side of the plug connector and is equal in number to the plug connectors. The numerical labels on the labeling area correspond to the endoscope numbers on the plug connectors connected to the corresponding positions.

[0022] Beneficial effects: By setting the labeling area, it is convenient for the operator to quickly and accurately find the placement position of the endoscope and thus take it out.

[0023] Furthermore, the card reader is an RFID card reader.

[0024] Beneficial effects: The RFID card reader can achieve non-contact reading, and information can be obtained without directly contacting the endoscope label or endoscope chip, improving the reading efficiency.

[0025] Furthermore, the placement rack includes angle steel and a tray. The angle steel is fixed on two opposite inner walls of the storage cavity, and the tray is placed on the angle steel.

[0026] Beneficial effects: When in use, the endoscope is placed on the tray, and one end of the endoscope is connected to the plug connector. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0029] Figure 3 is Figure 2 The structural schematic diagram at A1 in Specific implementation mode

[0030] The following is a further detailed description through specific implementation modes:

[0031] The markings in the attached drawings of the specification include: cabinet body 1, display screen 11, installation area 12, cabinet door 2, storage cavity 3, placement area 31, position number 32, tray 311, card reader 4, vacuum pump 51, connecting pipe 52, differential pressure sensor 521, and plug connector 53.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] As Figure 1-2 shown, an intelligent endoscope storage cabinet includes a cabinet body 1, on which a controller and a display screen 11 are provided (the controller is not shown in the figure); a storage cavity 3 is arranged inside the cabinet body 1, the storage cavity 3 is closed by a cabinet door 2, and several layers of placement areas 31 are arranged in the storage cavity 3 from top to bottom. A position number 32 is arranged on each placement area 31, and a placement rack for supporting the endoscope is also arranged on the placement area 31. At least two endoscopes are placed on each placement rack; specifically, in this embodiment, the placement rack includes angle steel and a tray 311. The angle steel is fixed on two opposite inner walls of the storage cavity 3 by screws, and the tray 311 is placed on the angle steel. When in use, the endoscope is placed in the tray 311; specifically, in this embodiment, the cabinet body 1 is provided with eight layers of placement areas 31, and two endoscopes are placed on each layer of placement area 31 as an example for detailed description.

[0034] Several card readers 4 are also arranged on the side wall of the storage cavity 3. Each layer of placement area 31 corresponds to a card reader 4, and the number of each layer of card reader 4 is the same as the position number 32 of the placement area 31. The card reader 4 is electrically connected to the controller. In this embodiment, the card reader 4 is an RFID card reader. Existing endoscopes all come with a chip on which information related to the endoscope is stored. The card reader 4 is used to read the number and information on the endoscope chip and send the information to the controller. After receiving the signal, the controller sends information such as the number of the endoscope, the storage time, and the position number 32 of the card reader 4 to the display screen 11 for display, so as to synchronously record the placement position when storing the endoscope; when an endoscope needs to be retrieved, the operator selects the previously stored endoscope according to the time information displayed on the display screen 11. At this time, the placement position of the endoscope will also be displayed on the display screen 11, which is convenient for the operator to quickly find the placement position of the endoscope without having to search one by one, making it more convenient to use.

[0035] On the side wall of each placement area 31, a plurality of drying pipelines are provided. In this embodiment, specifically two drying pipelines are provided. At one end of the drying pipeline located in the storage cavity 3, there is a plug connector 53 for connecting with the endoscope. A detection component is provided on the drying pipeline, and the detection component is electrically connected to the controller. When the endoscope is connected to the plug connector 53, the detection component is triggered, and the detection component sends a signal to the controller. After receiving the signal, the controller controls the card reader 4 on the corresponding placement area 31 to start. This setting can ensure that the card reader 4 at the corresponding position starts only when an endoscope is placed, and the card readers 4 at other positions do not start. Compared with the prior art, the scanning action is reduced, the operation process is simplified, and at the same time, the accurate positioning of the endoscope position is realized; in addition, by triggering the start of the card reader 4 through the detection component, the invalid start of the card reader 4 can also be reduced, and the service life can be extended.

[0036] Specifically, an installation area 12 is provided on the cabinet body 1. The installation area 12 is located on one side of the storage cavity 3. The drying pipeline is arranged in the installation area 12 and corresponds to a plurality of layers of placement areas 31 one by one. As Figure 3 shown, in this embodiment, the drying pipeline includes a vacuum pump 51 and a connecting pipe 52. One end of the connecting pipe 52 is connected to the vacuum pump 51, and the other end is connected to the plug connector 53 located in the storage cavity 3; specifically, each vacuum pump 51 in this embodiment can be independently connected to two plug connectors 53 through the connecting pipe 52 (one group is shown in the figure).

[0037] Among them, in order to better realize the connection between the endoscope and the plug connector 53, it also includes a female connector (not shown in the figure) that cooperates with the plug connector 53. The female connector is connected to one end of the endoscope (when the existing endoscope is placed in the storage cabinet, in order to ensure the dryness of the inner cavity of the endoscope, a connector is also used to connect the endoscope to the drying pipeline, and then drying is realized by blowing or vacuum pumping). When the plug connector 53 is not connected to the female connector on the endoscope, the connecting pipe 52 is in a closed state. When the plug connector 53 is connected to the female connector on the endoscope, the connecting pipe 52 is communicated with the endoscope. Specifically, the mating connection between the plug connector 53 and the female connector is a prior art. For example, an existing spring-loaded quick connector is used. When this type of quick connector is not connected, the spring-loading mechanism on the male head (plug connector 53) pushes the valve core to the closed position to keep the pipeline closed. When connecting, the spring is compressed and the valve core moves; for example, the quick connectors of 20PP-S3-01 and 20PP-PE2-01 of Shanghai Lingke Fluid Technology Co., Ltd. are used.

[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, the detection component is a differential pressure sensor 521, and the differential pressure sensor 521 is arranged in the connecting pipe 52. When the endoscope is not connected, a large negative pressure is formed in the connecting pipe 52. When one end of the endoscope is connected to the plug connector 53, the connecting pipe 52 is communicated with the endoscope, and the negative pressure in the connecting pipe 52 rapidly decreases. The differential pressure sensor 521 can accurately detect the signal change, thereby sending the signal to the controller. The controller controls the card reader 4 to start reading the endoscope signal and records the storage time and position.

[0039] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate quickly finding the accurate position of the endoscope, a labeling area (not shown in the figure) is further arranged on the inner wall of each layer placement area 31. The labeling area is arranged on one side of the plug connector 53 and has the same number as the plug connector 53 for numbering the plug connector 53. For example, the two plug connectors 53 on the first layer can be numbered 1-1 and 1-2. The digital labels on the labeling area correspond to the endoscope numbers on the plug connectors 53 connected to the corresponding positions. For example, the No. 3 endoscope is placed on the first layer and is connected to the plug connector 53 numbered 1-2. When it is necessary to take out a certain endoscope, the operator can first locate the layer number where the endoscope is stored according to the position information displayed on the display screen 11, and then correspondingly find the digital label on the labeling area of that layer number, so as to quickly find the accurate storage position of the endoscope.

[0040] The usage process of an intelligent endoscope storage cabinet is as follows:

[0041] Storage: Open the cabinet door 2, place the endoscope on the empty tray 311, and then connect one end of the endoscope to the plug connector 53. At this time, the connecting pipe 52 is communicated with the inner cavity of the endoscope. The differential pressure sensor 521 in the connecting pipe 52 detects the signal and sends it to the controller. After receiving the signal, the controller controls the card reader 4 at the corresponding position to start. The card reader 4 reads the stored endoscope information and sends it to the controller. The controller records information such as the endoscope number, storage time, and position, and sends it to the display screen 11 for display. Finally, close the cabinet door 2 and keep the endoscope dry by means of vacuum pumping.

[0042] Retrieval: Check the storage time of the endoscope on the display screen 11, first retrieve the endoscope with the longest storage time, and find the endoscope according to the position information displayed on the display screen 11. Then open the cabinet door 2 and remove the endoscope at this position from the plug connector 53. At this time, the connecting pipe 52 is closed by the plug connector 53 again. The differential pressure sensor 521 detects the signal and sends it to the controller. The controller records the removal time of the endoscope and deletes the information of the endoscope from the display screen 11.

[0043] The intelligent endoscope storage cabinet provided by this application can record the exact storage location when storing, facilitating quick positioning of the endoscope during retrieval, reducing the time for searching one by one, and improving efficiency. Additionally, the stored endoscope needs to be kept dry. This application utilizes the action of plugging in the endoscope during drying to trigger the card reader 4 to read the endoscope information. On the one hand, it improves the accuracy of reading, and on the other hand, it reduces the ineffective startup of the card reader 4. Moreover, compared with the prior art, it does not require scanning one by one, reducing the workload of the operator and improving work efficiency.

[0044] Embodiment 2

[0045] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the detection component is a travel switch, which is arranged on the plug connector 53 or the inner wall of the storage cavity 3 close to the plug connector 53. When one end of the endoscope with a female connector is connected to the plug connector 53, the travel switch is triggered. The travel switch sends a signal to the controller. After receiving the signal, the controller controls the card reader 4 at the corresponding position to start, thereby reading the information of the endoscope and sending it to the controller. The controller sends information such as the endoscope number, storage time, and storage location to the display screen 11 for display.
