Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to an ultrasonic cleaning detection energy bottle using pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules. Background Art

[0002] In hospital disinfection supply centers, endoscopy centers, and other department institutions with instrument cleaning and processing, ultrasonic cleaning machines are required to clean precision and complex instruments. However, it is impossible to detect whether the energy of ultrasonic cleaning meets the requirements, and it is also impossible to distinguish whether the cleaning is complete after ultrasonic cleaning. It can only be observed by the human eye. If the cleaning is not thorough, it will lead to unqualified disinfection and sterilization, resulting in surgical infections of patients and medical accidents.

[0003] Due to the existence of cavitation effect, ultrasonic cleaning machines can effectively clean surgical instruments with relatively complex structures or those that have not been cleaned in time, reduce the workload of instrument cleaning, improve work efficiency, and improve the qualification rate of cleaning. It is clearly stipulated that hospital disinfection supply centers should be equipped with ultrasonic cleaning devices, but the ultrasonic energy and cleaning effect of their product operation parameters cannot be directly monitored. In addition, the pollutant monitoring is not clean, failing to meet the requirements in the evaluation of the ultrasonic cleaning effect, which has a huge impact on subsequent disinfection and sterilization, and further causes instrument contamination.

[0004] CN218726674U discloses an ultrasonic cleaning effect monitoring energy bottle, which judges whether the equipment is qualified through the principle of chemical reaction discoloration. The chemical reaction has certain instability. After chemical reaction discoloration, the storage environment is harsh, the product validity period is short, the color is inconsistent after ultrasonic treatment, and there is a phenomenon of color reversion after long-term placement. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] Aiming at the technical problem that in the prior art, whether the equipment is qualified is judged through the principle of chemical reaction discoloration, and there is a certain instability in the chemical reaction and a phenomenon of color reversion after long-term placement; the utility model provides an ultrasonic cleaning detection energy bottle using pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules. Through a physical reaction, oscillation occurs during ultrasonic cleaning detection, causing the wall material of the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules to collide and rub with the glass particles, the wall material of the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules ruptures, and the dye flows out to change the color of the liquid, thereby judging whether the equipment is qualified, and solving the problem of color reversion of the chemical reaction discoloration type energy bottle after long-term placement.

[0006] The utility model provides an ultrasonic cleaning detection energy bottle with pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules, which includes a glass bottle. The glass bottle contains a pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsule solution and glass particles. The pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsule solution includes a solvent and pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules dispersed in the solvent. The pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules include a wall material, and a core material is wrapped inside the wall material. The pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules and the glass particles are evenly dispersed in water.

[0007] Further, the solvent is water and the core material is a dye.

[0008] Further, the glass particles include angular silicate glass blocks and / or rounded silicate glass beads. The rounded silicate glass beads are used to prevent breakage during transportation, and the angular silicate glass blocks are used to cause faster collision and friction with the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules during ultrasonic cleaning detection, so that the dye flows out.

[0009] Further, the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules are spherical.

[0010] Further, the particle size of the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules is 1 - 100 μm.

[0011] Further, the glass bottle sealing cap is a fixed sealing cap or a knob sealing cap. For the glass bottle with a knob sealing cap, the rounded silicate glass beads and the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsule solution need to be added to the glass bottle before use to avoid contact between the two before use, improve the accuracy of the test, and avoid the influence of long-term transportation on the test results. For the glass bottle with a fixed sealing cap, different sharpness silicate glass blocks and pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules are adjusted and added to the glass bottle before leaving the factory and then sealed. It is suitable for use after short-distance transportation, and the transportation process has little influence on the test results.

[0012] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0013] (1) An ultrasonic cleaning detection energy bottle using pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules provided by the present utility model changes color by the way that the dye flows out after the wall material of the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules is damaged due to mutual collision and friction between the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules and the glass particles under the action of ultrasonic oscillation through a physical reaction, so as to judge whether the equipment is qualified. There is no phenomenon of inconsistent colors after ultrasonic treatment or color reversion after long-term placement.

[0014] (2) The present utility model can adjust the thickness of the wall material in the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules and the sharpness of the silicate glass blocks according to different equipment to match different ultrasonic cleaning machines, and has strong adaptability.

[0015] (3) The present utility model is used for energy monitoring of an ultrasonic cleaning machine. The energy bottle is convenient to operate during use, and reduces the working intensity of staff when selecting a cleaning brush. Description of the Drawings

The wall material 6 of the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsule 3 needs to be a material resistant to acids and alkalis and can be broken by the collision of glass particles 4 during ultrasonic reaction, such as carrageenan, sodium alginate, etc. The wall material 6 of the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsule 3 has a different color from the dye 7. When the wall material 6 is broken, the dye 7 flows out, making the solution show color. In the present utility model, the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsule 3 and the glass particles 4 are evenly dispersed in water 5, and the glass particles 4 are angular silicate glass blocks.

[0023] At the top opening of the glass bottle 1, there is an encapsulation cover 2. The encapsulation cover 2 is a fixed encapsulation. The angular silicate glass blocks and the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules 3 are adjusted and added to the glass bottle 1 before leaving the factory and then encapsulated. It is suitable for use after short-distance transportation, and the transportation process has little impact on the test results.

[0024] The specific working process of the present utility model is as follows:

[0025] Place the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules 3 and glass particles 4 in the glass bottle 1. The inside of the bottle is a mixture of water 5 and pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules 3. The wall material 6 of the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules 3 is pink or yellow. Debug the ultrasonic cleaning machine to be tested to enter the ultrasonic state and keep it unloaded. Place more than two energy bottles at any position in the ultrasonic cleaning machine. Try to keep the two energy bottles at the farthest distance on the same horizontal plane. Turn on the ultrasonic program of the ultrasonic cleaning machine. The ultrasonic wave propagates through the water and generates a cavitation effect. The oscillation generated by the cavitation effect will be transmitted to the energy bottles. The glass particles 4 and pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules 3 inside the energy bottles collide and rub against each other, so that the wall material 6 of the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules 3 ruptures and the dye 7 flows out, causing a color change inside the energy bottles. After 5-10 minutes, take out the energy bottles and observe the color change inside the bottles. If the color difference from before ultrasonic is large, the ultrasonic is qualified and the equipment is qualified. If the color is the same as before ultrasonic, the ultrasonic fails and the equipment is unqualified. After ultrasonic of the present utility model, the liquid inside the energy bottle changes from light pink to purplish red, and the color change is obvious, proving that the ultrasonic is qualified. The energy bottle can select different glass particles 4 and the wall material 6 of different pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules 3 according to different equipment and different positions. It can also match different ultrasonic cleaning machines by adjusting the thickness of the wall material 6 in the pressure-sensitive color-changing microcapsules 3 and the sharpness of the glass particles 4, so as to achieve qualified detection of the placement positions of different brands of equipment and different instruments, making the energy bottle have stronger adaptability.
