Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of medical examination, in particular to a urine cup storage rack. Background Art

[0002] The collection and processing of urine samples is a common and necessary step in outpatient testing. The analysis of urine samples is crucial for diagnosing and monitoring many diseases. When collecting urine samples, patients are required to receive a disposable urine cup to assist in the collection of the sample. However, in clinical practice, the storage and management of disposable urine cups with handles often present numerous challenges.

[0003] Currently, a device for storing disposable urine cups with handles includes a shell and a lifting mechanism disposed inside the shell. When in use, the urine cups are stacked and placed on the lifting mechanism inside the shell. The lifting mechanism drives the urine cups to rise, and the patient removes the urine cups from the top of the shell. However, since there is no structure on the top of the shell to separate two adjacent urine cups, when two adjacent urine cups are tightly connected, the patient will take away multiple urine cups at once, resulting in unnecessary waste. If the patient returns the extra urine cups, the next patient will receive a contaminated urine cup. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a urine cup storage rack, which can solve the problem of patients taking away multiple urine cups at one time.

[0005] The technical solution of the present utility model includes a cylinder and a support plate; the cross-section of the cylinder is a first rectangle, and a first limiting column and a second limiting column are provided inside the cylinder, and the first limiting column and the second limiting column are respectively fixed at two adjacent corners inside the cylinder along the height direction of the cylinder, and the length of the first limiting column and the second limiting column is the same as the height of the cylinder; the support plate is fixed to the bottom of the cylinder, and a cup-taking hole is provided on the support plate, and the cup-taking hole includes a circular hole and a first rectangular hole connected to the circular hole, the diameter of the circle is smaller than the diameter of the opening of the urine cup body, and the first rectangular hole is aligned with the gap between the first limiting column and the second limiting column.

[0006] Furthermore, it also includes a third limiting column, which is fixed at another corner adjacent to the second limiting column, and the length of the third limiting column is the same as the height of the cylinder; the cup-taking hole also includes a second rectangular hole connected to the circular hole, and the second rectangular hole is aligned with the gap between the second limiting column and the third limiting column, and the first rectangular hole and the second rectangular hole have the same shape and size.

[0007] Furthermore, the length of the first rectangular hole is greater than the width of the handle of the urine cup, and the width of the first rectangular hole is less than the length of the handle of the urine cup.

[0008] Furthermore, a groove is provided in the height direction at the center of the side wall of the cylinder away from the second limiting pillar and the third limiting pillar.

[0009] Furthermore, openings are provided on the side wall of the cylinder between the first limiting post and the second limiting post and on the side wall of the cylinder between the second limiting post and the third limiting post.

[0010] Furthermore, the width of the opening is greater than or equal to the width of the handle of the urine cup, and the height of the opening is less than the height of the cylinder.

[0011] Furthermore, the side length of the cross section at the top of the cylinder is greater than the side length of the cross section at the bottom.

[0012] Furthermore, it also includes a cover plate, which is hinged to the top of the cylinder.

[0013] Furthermore, the cylinder is fixed on a self-service urinary catheter machine or a wall.

[0014] The technical solution provided by the embodiment of the utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0015] After stacking several urine cups, they are placed in the cylinder body of the utility model. When placing the urine cups, the handles of the urine cups are placed between the two limit columns so that the urine cups are placed as a whole. The diameter of the circular part of the cup-taking hole fixed on the support plate at the bottom of the cylinder body is smaller than the diameter of the urine cup body, so that the support plate can prevent the urine cups from falling and at the same time, it is convenient for the patient to take out the urine cups from the bottom with only a small downward force. It can be seen that the structure of the utility model can prevent the urine cups from being randomly distributed and cross-contaminated. The patients can take them as needed and use them whenever they need them, which is quick and convenient.

[0016] Other advantages, objectives and features of the present invention will be reflected in part through the following description, and in part will be understood by those skilled in the art through research and practice of the present invention. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Any embodiment or design described as "exemplary" or "for example" in the embodiments of the present invention should not be construed as being preferred or advantageous over other embodiments or designs. Rather, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present the relevant concepts in a concrete manner.

[0026] In the current market, existing urine cup storage racks can only store round urine cups and are not suitable for disposable urine cups with handles (hereinafter referred to as "urine cups"). The present utility model solves the problem of placement and management of disposable urine cups with handles.

[0027] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a urine cup storage rack, comprising a cylinder 1 and a support plate 5; the cylinder 1 is a first rectangular cross-section, and is provided with a first limiting column 2 and a second limiting column 3 inside the cylinder 1, and the first limiting column 2 and the second limiting column 3 are respectively fixed at two adjacent corners inside the cylinder 1 along the height direction of the cylinder 1, and the length of the first limiting column 2 and the second limiting column 3 is the same as the height of the cylinder 1; the support plate 5 is fixed to the bottom of the cylinder 1, and a cup-taking hole 6 is provided on the support plate 5, and the cup-taking hole 6 includes a circular hole and a first rectangular hole connected to the circular hole, and the diameter of the circle is smaller than the diameter of the opening of the urine cup body; wherein, the handle of the urine cup is located between the first limiting column 2 and the second limiting column 3, and the first rectangular hole is aligned with the gap between the first limiting column 2 and the second limiting column 3.

[0028] It can be understood that the function of the first limiting post 2 and the second limiting post 3 is to facilitate fixing the handle of the urine cup so that the urine cup can be stacked in an orderly manner when placed, and avoid being thrown into the cylinder 1 at random;

[0029] It can be understood that the circular shape of the cup-taking hole 6 on the support plate 5 is smaller than the diameter of the urine cup body to prevent the urine cup from falling due to its own gravity; at the same time, the cup-taking hole 6 also serves to separate the urine cups to prevent the patient from taking multiple urine cups at one time.

[0030] Optionally, the first rectangle is a square, and the sizes of the cylinder 1 and the cup-taking hole 6 are determined according to the size of the urine cup. Specifically, those skilled in the art can set them according to their needs, and the present invention does not limit this.

[0031] Example: The dimensions of the cylinder are 90 mm × 90 mm × 400 mm. The radius of the circular portion of the cup hole 6 is 29.5 mm.

[0032] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present utility model, a third limiting column 4 is also included, and the third limiting column 4 is fixed at another corner adjacent to the second limiting column 3, and the length of the third limiting column 4 is the same as the height of the cylinder 1; the cup-taking hole 6 also includes a second rectangular hole connected to the circular hole, and the second rectangular hole is aligned with the gap between the second limiting column 3 and the third limiting column 4; wherein the first rectangular hole and the second rectangular hole have the same shape and size.

[0033] It can be understood that the purpose of providing the third limiting column 4 is to increase the placement position of the urine cup handle so that the urine cups can be staggered and stacked, further preventing the patient from taking away multiple urine cups at a time.

[0034] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present invention, the length of the first rectangular hole is greater than the width of the handle of the urine cup, and the width of the first rectangular hole is less than the length of the handle of the urine cup.

[0035] It can be understood that the size of the first rectangular hole is to further separate the urine cup and prevent the urine cup from falling.

[0036] Furthermore, in the embodiment of the present invention, a groove (not shown in the figure) is provided in the height direction at the center of the side wall of the cylinder 1 away from the second limiting column 3 and the third limiting column 4.

[0037] It can be understood that since the vertical position of the urine cup body and the handle is conducive to directing urine into the guide port of the urinary catheter, when only the first limiting column 2 and the second limiting column 3 are in position, the guide port bends when it contacts the side wall of the cylinder 1. Long-term bending causes the guide port to undergo irreversible deformation, which is not conducive to pouring the urine in the urine cup into the urinary catheter.

[0038] When there are the first limiting column 2 , the second limiting column 3 and the third limiting column 4 , the guide port of the urine cup of the urine cup handle in the second limiting column 3 and the third limiting column 4 is located between the first limiting column 2 and the second limiting column 3 .

[0039] Furthermore, in the embodiment of the present invention, openings 7 are provided on the side wall of the cylinder 1 between the first limiting post 2 and the second limiting post 3 and the side wall of the cylinder 1 between the second limiting post 3 and the third limiting post 4.

[0040] It can be understood that the function of the opening 7 is to facilitate the staff to adjust the urine cup inside the cylinder 1.

[0041] Furthermore, in the embodiment of the present utility model, the width of the opening 7 is greater than or equal to the width of the handle of the urine cup, and the height of the opening 7 is less than the height of the cylinder 1.

[0042] It can be understood that the width is greater than the width of the urine cup to ensure that the staff has enough space to operate during adjustment, while also being able to further separate the urine cup.

[0043] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present invention, the side length of the top cross section of the cylinder 1 is greater than the side length of the bottom cross section.

[0044] It can be understood that the opening at the top is larger than the opening at the bottom to facilitate the staff to place the urine cup.

[0045] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present invention, a cover plate is further included, and the cover plate is hinged to the top of the cylinder 1.

[0046] It can be understood that the function of the cover is to prevent dust from falling from above and to prevent the urine cup from being contaminated.

[0047] Furthermore, in an embodiment of the present invention, the cylinder 1 is generally fixed on a self-service urinary catheter machine or a wall.

[0048] It should be noted that, in this document, the terms "comprises," "includes," or any other variations thereof are intended to encompass non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus comprising a series of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not explicitly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. In the absence of further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising a ..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus comprising the element.

[0049] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been disclosed above, they are not limited to the applications listed in the specification and exemplary embodiments. They can be applied to a variety of fields suitable for the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily realize further modifications. Therefore, without departing from the general concept defined by the claims and their equivalents, the present invention is not limited to the specific details and illustrations shown and described herein.
