[0023] The first detection cavity 6 is a rectangular slot with one end open and the other end closed. It is arranged inside the connector body 1 and is used to detect the cleaning and disinfection effect of the inner tube wall of the endoscope. The top of the first detection cavity 6 is arranged horizontally, the simulation piece 2 is bonded to the top of the first detection cavity 6, and a semicircular guide groove 9 is arranged in the middle position of the bottom. The open end of the first detection cavity 6 is connected to the liquid inlet 4, and the liquid inlet 4 passes through the liquid inlet connector 3. The liquid inlet connector 3 is a horizontally protruding cylindrical connector, which is arranged at the center position of one end of the connector body 1. A circular liquid outlet 5 is arranged on the end wall at the other end of the first detection cavity 6, and the diameter of the liquid outlet 5 is smaller than the diameter of the liquid inlet connector 3. The cleaning and disinfecting liquid enters the first detection cavity 6 from the liquid inlet 4 of the liquid inlet connector 3, cleans and disinfects the simulation piece 2, and then flows out from the liquid outlet 5.

[0024] The second detection cavity 7 is also a rectangular slot with an opening at one end and a closed end at the other end. The inner bottom is horizontally arranged for bonding the simulation sheet 2, which is used to detect the effect of immersion cleaning and disinfection of the outer tube wall of the endoscope. It is arranged on the upper side of the connector body 1, and the opening is arranged on the side of the liquid outlet 5. A rectangular observation port 8 is also provided on the upper side of the connector body 1. The observation port 8 opens upward and connects to the second detection cavity 7. The cleaning and disinfection of the outer tube wall of the endoscope requires immersion in a container filled with disinfectant. The detection connector is also immersed in the container. The cleaning and disinfection liquid enters the second detection cavity 7 through the opening and the observation port 8.

[0025] A button 10 is also provided on the upper side of the connector body 1. The button 10 is provided on the side of the observation port 8 away from the liquid outlet 4. A matching groove 12 is provided on the upper side of the second detection cavity 7. A matching protrusion 11 is provided on the button 10. The matching protrusion 11 is snapped into the matching groove 12. The matching groove 12 is connected to the second detection cavity 7. A pressing protrusion 13 is provided on the lower side of the button 10. The pressing protrusion 13 extends into the cavity of the second detection cavity 7.

[0026] On either side of the key 10 are two layers of mating protrusions 11, one above the other. These two layers of mating protrusions 11 form a cavity between them. A mating groove 12 has protruding tabs on either side of the cavity, which are installed in the cavity to secure the key 10. The lower mating protrusion 11 on one side of the key 10 extends downward to form a hook-shaped pressing protrusion 13. A vertically protruding pushbutton 13 is located on the upper side of the key 10. Pressing the pushbutton 13 compresses the simulated sheet 2 adhered to the bottom layer of the second detection cavity 7, securing it firmly within the cavity.

[0028] Reference Figure 4 The simulation piece 2 is a rectangular piece with a paint coating area 201 in the middle area, which is painted with brightly colored paint as a reference. After the endoscope is cleaned and disinfected, the paint in the paint coating area 201 is cleaned, indicating that the endoscope cleaning and disinfection result is qualified, otherwise it means that the result is unqualified. The sizes of the simulation pieces 2 placed in the first detection cavity 6 and the second detection cavity 7 are different. The simulation piece 2 in the second detection cavity 7 is bonded between the pressing protrusion 13 and the outlet, and the pressing protrusion 13 presses on one side of the paint coating area 201 of the simulation piece 2. The length of the simulation piece 2 in the first detection cavity 6 is the same as the length of the top layer of the first detection cavity 6, and is bonded to the entire top layer. One end of the simulation piece 2 is against the end wall of the closed end of the first detection cavity 6 to resist the impact of the cleaning and disinfection liquid entering the first detection cavity 6 on the simulation piece 2.

[0029] Working process:

[0030] The simulation piece 2 is respectively bonded to the top plate of the first detection cavity 6 and the bottom plate of the second detection cavity 7. One end of the simulated endoscope lumen is connected to the liquid inlet connector 3, and the other end is connected to the connection end of the cleaning and disinfection equipment. When the switch of the cleaning and disinfection equipment is turned on, the cleaning and disinfection liquid enters the first detection cavity 6 through the liquid inlet 4, and cleans and disinfects the inner wall of the simulated endoscope lumen while cleaning and disinfecting the simulation piece 2 in the first detection cavity 6. At the same time, the simulated endoscope lumen and the detection connector are placed in the soaking vessel together, and the cleaning and disinfection liquid enters the second detection cavity 7 from the outlet of the second detection cavity 7 and the observation port 8. While cleaning and disinfecting the outer wall of the simulated endoscope lumen, the simulation piece 2 in the second detection cavity 7 is cleaned and disinfected. After the entire cleaning and disinfection process is completed, the simulation piece 2 in the first detection cavity 6 is taken out for observation, and the simulation piece 2 in the second detection cavity 7 is observed through the observation port 8. If the pigments in the pigment coating area 201 on the two simulation pieces 2 are cleaned and disinfected, it means that the cleaning and disinfection results of the simulated endoscope lumen are qualified. Otherwise, it means that the cleaning and disinfection results are unqualified.
