[0002] Stool testing refers to an examination item that analyzes stool through physical, immunological and other methods to understand the function of the digestive system. It is mainly used to assist in the diagnosis of gastrointestinal infections, bleeding, tumors and other diseases. Currently, stool collection mainly uses hard rod-shaped or spoon-shaped collectors. After collecting an appropriate amount of specimen, it is placed in a sampling cup for inspection. However, under certain pathological conditions, the shape of stool will change. For example, in bacterial dysentery, the stool is mostly mucous, and in cases of intestinal flora disorder, the stool is watery. Through long-term observation, it was found that the existing collectors are not suitable for the collection of the above-mentioned liquid stool specimens. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide a dual-purpose stool specimen collection kit that can meet the collection needs of stool specimens in different states.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features therein can be combined with each other.

[0021] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with embodiments.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, a dual-purpose stool specimen collection kit includes a collection box 3, a dual-purpose collector, and a protective cover 1. A lid 2 is fixedly mounted on the central area of ​​the dual-purpose collector, and the lid 2 cooperates with the box opening 10 of the collection box to form a detachable connection; the dual-purpose collector located above the lid 2 constitutes a first-class stool collection piece 20, and the dual-purpose collector located below the lid 2 constitutes a second-class stool collection piece 21; the collection box 3 includes a box body and a box opening 10 provided at the top of the box body, the interior of the box body forming an accommodating cavity, the accommodating cavity including a lower cavity 12 for storing stool and an upper cavity 11 for separately accommodating the first-class stool collection piece and the second-class stool collection piece; the protective cover 1 is used to cover the first-class stool collection piece and the second-class stool collection piece, respectively;

[0023] The first-class stool collection component 20 includes a suction head 4 and a straw 5, with the suction head 4 connected to the straw 5. The straw 5 is a hollow structure, with the suction head 4 disposed on the top of the straw 5 and a through-hole 14 defined at the front end. The second-class stool collection component 21 includes, from bottom to top, a collection scoop 9, a connecting rod 8, and a base 7. The end of the suction head 5 extends to the inner bottom of the base 7. Preferably, the suction head 5 and base 7 are made of silicone, and the collection scoop 9 and connecting rod 8 are made of hard plastic.

[0024] This utility model discloses a dual-purpose stool specimen collection kit. The method for using the kit is as follows: A first-class stool collection piece and a second-class stool collection piece are selected based on the specimen shape, and the protective cover is removed to collect the specimen. After collecting a sufficient amount of specimen, the collection end with the specimen is placed in the collection box, the lid is tightened, and the protective cover is placed over the unused collection end. The first-class stool collection piece can be used to collect liquid or mucus-like stool; the second-class stool collection piece can be used when the specimen is normal soft stool.

[0025] Specifically, Method 1: When using a Class I stool collection device to collect a liquid specimen, hold the base 7 with the suction tip 4 facing downward, squeeze the base 7 and the end of the straw 5 within the base, creating a negative pressure within the straw 5. The liquid specimen is then drawn through the through hole 14 into the suction tip 4 and into the straw for collection. Method 2: When using a Class II stool collection device to collect normal soft stool, hold the straw 5 located on the upper portion of the lid with the collection spoon 9 facing downward, connect the base 7 to the connecting rod 8, and use the collection spoon to collect stool.

[0026] This utility model provides a dual-purpose stool specimen collection kit, also equipped with a protective cover that ensures the cleanliness of the collector before use, prevents contamination after collection, and isolates odors. Preferably, the protective cover is designed as a single piece, with both ends of the protective cover being universal for both the Class I and Class II stool specimen collection pieces. The collection portion extends through the center of the lid and is fixed thereto, with the end of the straw 5 extending into the interior of the base 7. This not only shields the specimen from contamination during collection, but also facilitates portability.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, the lid 2 is provided with a card slot 15 on both sides, and the box opening 10 of the collection box is fitted into the card slot 15 to form a detachable connection with each other. Among them, by providing the card slots 15 on both sides of the lid, both sides of the lid can be detachably connected to the collection box, and the structure is simple and easy to produce.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the protective cover 1 is cylindrical in shape and includes a top cover and side walls. The protective cover 1 is universally compatible with both Class I and Class II feces collectors. A single protective cover 1 can be used to further reduce production costs.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the first type of feces collecting member and the second type of feces collecting member are arranged along the vertical direction. Figure 3 As shown, the first and second type stool collection pieces are located in the center of the cover 2. With the above structure, the operation is more convenient, and the cover 2 plays a better barrier role to avoid contact with the specimen.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, scale lines 6 and scale numbers are provided on the pipette 5. The scale lines 6 and scale numbers can meet the needs of quantitative collection.

[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
