Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical testing supplies, in particular to a disease screening test tube. Background Art

[0002] Test tubes are a commonly used diagnostic aid in medicine. Compared to the lengthy wait for results from systematic sampling and testing at a hospital, test tubes are easy to use and allow for initial screening at home. They can also be used for simple initial screening in a hospital setting, eliminating the need for in-depth testing, simplifying the testing process. However, currently available test tubes typically consist of a cotton swab, a dropper filled with reagents, and a test cartridge. The user must use the cotton swab to collect a sample of bodily fluids or feces, place it in the dropper, wait for the reagents to mix, and then drop the sample into the test cartridge to wait for the results. While this method is faster than in-depth testing at a hospital, the test results can have an odor, significantly impacting the user experience. Furthermore, during the mixing process, the reagents can leak from the tube, making it difficult to use. Furthermore, typical test cartridges can only detect a single disease. If multiple tests are needed, multiple sets of test tubes must be purchased, which is expensive and requires repeated testing, further hindering user experience. Utility Model Content

In the description of this utility model, "plurality" means two or more, unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0027] In this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "installed," "connected," "connect," "fixed," etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connection, detachable connection, or integration; mechanical connection, electrical connection; direct connection, indirect connection through an intermediate medium, internal communication between two components, or interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on specific circumstances.

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 The present invention provides a disease screening test tube, comprising a test tube body 1, a lid 2 covering the test tube body 1, and at least one test paper 3 disposed within the test tube body 1. A first sealing structure 4 is disposed on the lid 2 and the test tube body 1. A second sealing structure 5 is disposed within the test tube body 1 to seal against a reagent. The first sealing structure 4 is interference fit with the inner wall of the test tube body 1.

[0029] When a sample needs to be tested, a certain amount of sample can be dipped into an external cotton swab, the second sealing structure 5 can be torn open, and the sample can be placed into the test tube body 1. The reagent in the test tube body 1 and the sample are mixed. The first sealing structure 4 is then closed, and the entire disease screening test tube is inverted and upright, allowing the reagent in the test tube body 1 to flow onto the test paper 3, and the results are displayed. The entire process is simple and convenient. The first sealing structure 4 seals the test tube body 1, preventing the leakage of sample odor and reagent, effectively preventing odor. Moreover, by providing at least one test paper 3 on the test tube body 1, different test papers 3 can be used to test for different diseases, allowing multiple diseases to be tested simultaneously in a single operation, saving time, effort, and money, and facilitating user experience. By providing the second sealing structure 5 within the test tube body 1, the second sealing structure 5 seals the reagent, effectively preventing contamination of the reagent when not in use, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the disease screening test tube.

[0030] Regarding the specific structural setting of the first sealing structure 4, as shown in FIG. Figures 1 to 2 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the first sealing structure 4 includes a first sealing ring 41 formed on the outer side of the middle portion of the lid 2 and pressed against the inner wall of the test tube body 1 when the lid 2 is closed, a second sealing ring 42 formed on the outer side of the lower end of the lid 2 and pressed against the inner wall of the test tube body 1 when the lid 2 is closed, and a first sealing embedding groove 43 formed on the inner wall of the test tube and matching the first sealing ring 41. The first sealing ring 41 and the first sealing embedding groove 43 are interference fit, and the second sealing ring 42 and the inner wall of the test tube body 1 are interference fit. When the present sealing structure is needed to seal the test tube body 1 for testing, the lid 2 only needs to be aligned with the upper end of the test tube body 1 and inserted, so that the first sealing ring 41 is pressed into the first sealing embedding groove 43, and the second sealing ring 42 is pressed against the inner wall of the test tube body 1. Because the first sealing ring 41 and the first sealing embedding groove 43 form an interference fit, and the second sealing ring 42 also forms an interference fit with the inner wall of the test tube body 1, the first sealing ring 41 and the second sealing ring 42 are tightly pressed against the inner wall of the test tube body 1 without the application of external force after the lid is closed, and cannot be separated. The structural arrangement of the two sealing rings improves the sealing performance of the test tube body 1, prevents the leakage of sample odor and reagents, effectively prevents odor, and facilitates human use.

[0031] Regarding the specific structural setting of the cover 2, as shown in FIG. Figures 1 to 5As shown, the lid 2 comprises a cap 21, a cover body 22 integrally formed below the cap 21, and a handle 23 disposed on the outer edge of the cap 21. A first sealing ring 41 is disposed on the outer side of the middle portion of the cover body 22, and a second sealing ring 42 is disposed on the outer side of the lower end of the cover body 22. The cover body 22 is inserted into the upper end of the test tube body 1. The diameter of the cover body 22 matches the diameter of the test tube body 1, facilitating insertion of the cover body 22 into the test tube body 1 and sealing the test tube body 1, preventing odor and reagent leakage and facilitating user use. The diameter of the cap 21 is larger than the diameters of the cap 22 and the test tube body 1. When the cap 2 is precisely fitted onto the test tube body, the lower end of the cap 21 presses against the upper end of the test tube body 1, preventing the entire cap 2 from becoming embedded in the test tube and becoming inadvertently inaccessible, thus facilitating user use.

[0032] Regarding the specific method of placing the cover 22 into the test tube body 1, Figures 1 to 2 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the upper end of the test tube body 1 is provided with a cover insertion groove 11 for receiving the cover body 22. The first sealing insertion groove 43 is provided on the inner side wall of the cover insertion groove 11. When the lid 2 is closed on the test tube body 1, the cover body 22 is correspondingly inserted into the cover insertion groove 11, and the first sealing ring 41 thereon is correspondingly pressed into the first sealing insertion groove 43. The two are matched, which helps to improve the sealing degree of the sealing structure.

[0033] In order to limit the position of the cover 2 and improve the efficiency and accuracy of the cover 2 covering the test tube body 1, as shown in FIG. Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an insertion ring 12 is provided outwardly around the upper end of the cover insertion groove 11, and the lower end of the cover cap 21 is inserted into the insertion ring 12, thereby effectively limiting the covering position of the cover 2. Under the limiting effect of the insertion ring 12, the efficiency and accuracy of the cover 2 covering the test tube body 1 can be effectively improved.

[0034] In order to further improve the closing accuracy and efficiency of the lid 2, as Figure 2 as well as Figure 5As shown, a first covering guide surface 13 is formed at the connection between the insertion ring 12 and the covering insertion groove 11, extending obliquely from the upper outside to the lower inside. A second covering guide surface 24 is formed at the connection between the cap 21 and the cover body 22, extending obliquely from the upper outside to the lower inside and matching the first covering guide surface 13. When the lid 2 is covered on the test tube body 1, the lower end of the cover body 22 is first guided by the oblique first covering guide surface 13, thereby more easily and accurately entering the covering insertion groove 11. When the lid 2 is covered in place, the second covering guide surface 24 abuts against the first covering guide surface 13, and the two guide each other, thereby making the lid 2 more tightly covered on the test tube body 1, further improving the covering accuracy and efficiency of the lid 2.

[0035] Preferably, Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in order to make the cover 22 easier to use, the cover 2 further includes a handle 23 provided on the outer side of the cap 21. People can use the handle 23 to better operate the cover 2 (close or remove the cover 2 from the test tube body 1), thereby improving people's user experience.

[0036] Preferably, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the insertion ring 12 is further formed with a handle clearance groove 25 for accommodating the handle 23. When the lid 2 is closed on the test tube body 1, the handle 23 is placed in the handle clearance groove 25, thereby limiting the position of the handle 23 and allowing the lid 2 to be more accurately closed on the test tube body 1.

[0037] Preferably, in order to prevent the cover 2 from being lost when not in use, Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a connecting strip is provided between the cover 2 and the test tube body 1 , and the cover 2 and the test tube body 1 are connected by the connecting strip, thereby effectively preventing the cover 2 from being lost when not in use, and facilitating use.

[0038] Regarding the specific structural setting of the second sealing structure 5, as shown in FIG. Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the second sealing structure 5 includes a sealing tube 51 disposed within the test tube body 1 and a sealing paper 52 disposed at the upper end of the sealing tube 51. The sealing paper 52 seals the sealing tube 51, thereby effectively preventing the reagent in the sealing tube 51 from being contaminated before use, thereby improving the accuracy of the test.

[0039] Regarding the specific structural setting of the sealing paper 52, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the sealing paper 52 is in the shape of a teardrop as a whole, and its rounded end is sealed on the sealing tube 51 to ensure the sealing of the sealing tube 51. Its pointed end extends out of the test tube body 1, so that people can hold the pointed end to peel off the sealing paper 52 as a whole and use the reagent.

[0040] Preferably, Figure 2 as well as Figure 5 As shown, in order to better fill the reagent into the sealing tube 51 and better pressurize the sealing paper 52 on the sealing tube 51, the height of the sealing tube 51 is higher than the height of the test tube body 1, thereby facilitating the mechanical positioning and processing of the sealing tube 51, so that the reagent can be better filled into the sealing tube 51 and the sealing paper 52 can be better pressurized on the sealing tube 51, thereby improving the efficiency of the sealing structure.

[0041] Regarding the specific fixing method of the test paper 3 in the test tube body 1, Figure 3 As shown, at least one limiting structure 6 for limiting the position of the test paper 3 is formed at the end of the test tube body 1 away from the sealing tube 51. The limiting structure 6 includes symmetrical limiting blocks 61 formed at the end of the test tube body 1 away from the sealing tube 51 and symmetrically arranged to fix the test paper 3 in position, and a limiting pressing block 62 formed at one end of the sealing tube 51 and extending between the symmetrical limiting blocks 61. The test paper 3 is embedded between the symmetrical limiting blocks 61 and the front end is pressed by the limiting pressing block 62, thereby effectively limiting and fixing the test paper 3, preventing the test paper 3 from shifting during use, which may be detrimental to the entry of reagents or the observation of test results.

[0042] Preferably, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the number of the test papers 3 is 2, and the number of the limiting structures 6 is also correspondingly 2 groups. The two test papers 3 are used to detect different diseases, thereby saving the user's time and improving the efficiency of the detection.

[0043] In order to enable people to better observe the test results, the test tube body 1 is made of a transparent material. The transparent material enables people to see the results displayed on the test strip more clearly, which is convenient for people to use.

[0044] It should be noted that the disease screening test tube disclosed in this utility model is an improvement to its specific structure, and the specific control method is not the innovation of this utility model. The reagents, test strips, cotton swabs, and other components involved in this utility model can be commonly used standard parts or components known to those skilled in the art. Their structure, principles, and control methods are all known to those skilled in the art through technical manuals or routine experimental methods.
