A connecting pipe 31 is provided in the middle of the bottom of the second guide frame 2, and a fixing frame 11 is provided at the bottom of the second guide frame 2. A placement plate 12 is slidingly provided at the bottom of the fixing frame 11, and a specimen cup 17 is provided on the top of the placement plate 12. The specimen cup 17 is It is made of transparent plastic and has a pointed mouth design for the specimen cup 17, which makes it convenient to pour the urine specimen into the urine test tube. The scale is clear and the amount of specimen retained is intuitive and clear. Rectangular holes are provided on both sides of the placement plate 12. A slide bar 121 is provided in the rectangular hole. A second connecting spring 14 is provided on the outside of the slide bar 121. The two ends of the second connecting spring 14 are respectively connected to the placement plate 12 and the fixing ring 13. A fixing ring 13 is slidingly provided on the slide bar 121. A top block 15 is symmetrically provided on the inside of the fixing frame 11. The front ends of the two top blocks 15 are designed to be inclined surfaces that gradually increase from back to front. When the placement plate 12 moves from front to back with the fixing ring 13, the fixing ring 13 is squeezed by the inclined surface on the top block 15, so that the two fixing rings 13 move toward each other, thereby fixing the specimen cup 17.
[0024] like Figure 3 As shown, the sliding spring locking device includes a first connecting shaft 4, a connecting rod 5, a connecting block 6, a clamping block 7, a pull rod 8 and a first connecting spring 9. The first connecting shaft 4 is provided at the right end of the outer side of the first guide frame 1. The connecting rod 5 is rotatably provided on the first connecting shaft 4. The connecting block 6 is provided at the right end of the outer side of the second guide frame 2. The connecting rod 5 is engaged with the groove on the connecting block 6. A pull rod 8 is slidably provided inside the connecting block 6. A clamping block 7 is provided at the left end of the pull rod 8. The clamping block 7 is designed as an inclined surface that gradually rises from left to right. When the connecting rod 5 rotates backward, the pull rod 8 is pressed against the inclined surface of the clamping block 7, so that the pull rod 8 moves to the right. A first connecting spring 9 is provided on the outside of the pull rod 8. The first connecting spring 9 is connected to the right end of the clamping block 7. When the connecting rod 5 squeezes the inclined surface of the clamping block 7, the first connecting spring 9 will be compressed.
[0025] The fixing ring 13 further includes a rubber ring 16 . The rubber ring 16 is provided on the inner side of the fixing ring 13 . The rubber ring 16 is used to reduce the impact of the fixing ring 13 on the specimen cup 17 .
[0026] A baffle ring 18 is also included. The bottom of the connecting tube 31 is provided with the baffle ring 18, which can prevent the collected urine from splashing out of the specimen cup 17.
[0027] A rubber pad 100 is also included. The tops of the first guide frame 1 and the second guide frame 2 are both provided with a rubber pad 100 .
[0028] When a patient who is not convenient to squat and take a urine sample takes a urine sample, the patient holds the handle 10 of the collector by hand, and the openings of the first guide frame 1 and the second guide frame 2 are aligned with the patient's urethra. Urine flows from the inner walls of the first guide frame 1 and the second guide frame 2 to the connecting tube 31 at the bottom, and flows to the specimen cup 17 through the connecting tube 31. After the collection is completed, the doctor pulls the placement plate 12 forward, and the placement plate 12 slides out of the fixing frame 11. When the placement plate 12 moves to the inclined surface of the top block 15, the second connecting spring 14 drives the two fixing rings 13 to move backward, so that the specimen cup 17 is separated from the fixing ring 13, and the urine in the specimen cup 17 is collected. Then, the pull rod 8 is pulled to the right, and the block 7 is driven to move toward the inside of the connecting block 6, so that the connecting rod 5 is no longer stuck. The connecting rod 5 is pushed upward. At this time The first guide frame 1 and the second guide frame 2 will no longer be fixed. After separating the first guide frame 1 and the second guide frame 2, the doctor can disinfect and clean the inner walls thereof more conveniently. After the specimen cup 17 and the guide frame are cleaned, the first guide frame 1 and the second guide frame 2 are closed. At this time, the doctor pushes the connecting rod 5 backward, and the connecting rod 5 squeezes the inclined surface on the block 7, driving the pull rod 8 to move to the right. When the connecting rod 5 moves to the bottom of the connecting block 6, under the action of the first connecting spring 9, the pull rod 8 will automatically reset, and the block 7 clamps the connecting rod 5, thereby fixing the first guide frame 1 and the second guide frame 2. Then, the specimen cup 17 is placed in the center of the fixing ring 13, and the placement plate 12 is pushed backward. The inclined surface squeezes the fixing ring 13, so that the two fixing rings 13 move toward each other, fixing the specimen cup 17 for next use.
