[0026] The present invention provides an ear canal foreign body suction device, which is described in detail below. It should be noted that the order of description of the following embodiments does not limit the preferred order of the embodiments.

[0027] The present application is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. Example 1

[0028] See also Figure 1-7In this embodiment, an ear canal foreign body suction device is provided, including: a fixed rod 1, a placement groove 2 is opened inside the fixed rod 1, a sealing cover 301 is provided on the outside of the fixed rod 1, and an insertion tube 4 is connected to one end of the fixed rod 1; a suction component arranged between the insertion tube 4 and the fixed rod 1, for sucking foreign matter inside the ear canal, the suction component including: an air pump 103, an air suction tube 104, an air tube 401 and a brush 402; and a collection component arranged inside the placement groove 2, for blocking the sucked foreign matter, the collection component including: a collection frame 201, a filter screen 202, a pressing ring 203 and a pressing spring 204.

[0029] Among them, through the setting of the suction component, foreign objects inside the ear canal can be sucked out by air pressure suction, reducing the damage caused by traditional ear spoons or cotton swabs when cleaning the ear canal, and can take pictures of the inside of the ear canal to assist medical staff in cleaning foreign objects in the ear canal. Secondly, through the setting of the collection component, the cleaned foreign objects can be collected and processed in a centralized manner. Example 2

[0030] On the basis of Example 1, a power supply 101 is installed inside the fixed rod 1, a cavity 102 is opened inside the fixed rod 1, an air pump 103 is provided inside the cavity 102, a placement groove 2 is opened inside the fixed rod 1, an air extraction pipe 104 is provided between the placement groove 2 and the cavity 102, an air pipe 401 communicating with the placement groove 2 is opened inside the insertion tube 4, a plurality of evenly distributed side holes 403 are opened on the outside of the end of the insertion tube 4, and the plurality of side holes 403 are all communicated with the air pipe 401, and a plurality of evenly distributed brushes 402 are connected to the outside of the end of the insertion tube 4.

[0031] When cleaning foreign objects in the ear canal, hold the fixed rod 1 and insert the insertion tube 4 into the ear canal, then rotate the fixed rod 1 to drive the insertion tube 4 and the brush 402 on the insertion tube 4 to rotate, and the foreign objects attached to the ear canal are swept down by the brush 402. At the same time, the air inside the placement slot 2 is extracted by the vacuum pump 103 and the vacuum tube 104, so that the air pressure inside the placement slot 2 drops to generate suction, and acts on the trachea 401, so that the foreign objects swept down by the brush 402 and the foreign objects remaining in the ear canal are all sucked into the trachea 401. The provision of multiple side holes 403 can ensure that the foreign objects swept down by the brush 402 are sucked into the trachea 401 as soon as possible, and then the foreign objects are discharged into the placement slot 2 along the trachea 401 and enter the collection frame 201.

[0032] Among them, two equipment slots are opened at the end of the insertion tube 4, and a micro camera 5 and a lighting lamp 502 are respectively installed inside the equipment slots. Multiple slots are opened on the outside of the insertion tube 4, and a side camera 501 is installed inside the slots. The outside of the fixing rod 1 is provided with an anti-slip sleeve 105, and the anti-slip sleeve 105 is made of medical rubber material.

[0033] Then, through the setting of the micro camera 5 and the side camera 501, the image inside the ear canal can be photographed to assist medical personnel in cleaning foreign objects in the ear canal according to the photographed images, avoiding the difficulty in completely cleaning foreign objects due to poor vision. At the same time, the setting of multiple side cameras 501 can supplement the images left by the micro camera 5 to avoid foreign objects that are not completely cleaned being left inside the ear canal. Then, the lighting 502 can provide lighting for the inside of the ear canal, making it convenient for the micro camera 5 and the side camera 501 to shoot clear images. Then, through the setting of the anti-slip sleeve 105, medical personnel can better control the fixing rod 1 to avoid slipping of the hands, which causes the insertion tube 4 to scratch the inner wall of the ear canal. Example 3

[0034] On the basis of Examples 1 and 2, a cylindrical collecting frame 201 is provided inside the placement groove 2, and the collection frame 201 is hollow inside. Through holes are provided on both sides of the collection frame 201, and a filter screen 202 is provided inside the through hole close to the exhaust pipe 104. A pressing ring 203 is provided on one side of the collection frame 201, and a plurality of pressing springs 204 are connected between the pressing ring 203 and the placement groove 2. A sealing groove 3 is provided on the outer surface of the fixing rod 1, and a sealing cover 301 is located in the sealing groove 3. A plurality of connecting holes 302 are provided on the sealing cover 301, and a plurality of fixing holes 304 corresponding to the positions of the connecting holes 302 are provided inside the sealing groove 3. A fixing screw 303 is threadedly connected to the inside of the connecting hole 302.

[0035] After the foreign matter is sucked into the placement slot 2, it enters the collection frame 201. The filter screen 202 on the collection frame 201 can ensure that the gas inside the collection frame 201 flows out while isolating the foreign matter in the airflow, so that the foreign matter stays in the collection frame 201. After the foreign matter is sucked out, the fixing screw 303 can be removed from the fixing hole 304 to release the restriction on the sealing cover 301. Then, the sealing cover 301 can be removed from the sealing slot 3 to expose the collection frame 201. Then, the collection frame 201 can be removed from the placement slot 2 to clean the foreign matter in the collection frame 201.

[0036] After the cleaning is completed, the end of the collection frame 201 with the filter 202 is placed in the placement groove 2 and contacts the pressing ring 203, and then the pressing ring 203 is squeezed until the other end of the collection frame 201 is placed in the placement groove 2. During this process, the pressing spring 204 is squeezed and elastically deformed to generate elastic force, and the generated elastic force is applied to the pressing ring 203. After the collection frame 201 is completely placed in the placement groove 2, the pressing ring 203 applies pressure to the collection frame 201 under the action of the elastic force of the pressing spring 204, so that the collection frame 201 is away from the through hole at one end of the filter 202 and is close to the trachea 401 pipe mouth, so that when the trachea 401 extracts foreign matter, the foreign matter can enter the collection frame 201 as soon as possible, and then the sealing cover 301 is put back into the sealing groove 3, and the fixing screw 303 passes through the connecting hole 302 and is screwed into the fixing hole 304 to fix the sealing cover 301.

[0037] In the above embodiments, the description of each embodiment has its own focus. For parts that are not described in detail in a certain embodiment, reference can be made to the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.
