Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical devices, and in particular to a vomit measuring cup. Background Technology

[0002] In healthy individuals, daily fluid intake and output should maintain a dynamic balance. However, in daily care, it is often necessary to record the daytime and nighttime intake and output of patients with hyperemesis gravidarum, chemotherapy, severe gastroenteritis, or intestinal obstruction. This is crucial for understanding the patient's condition, assisting in diagnosis, and determining the treatment plan. Therefore, nursing staff need to record the patient's fluid intake and output accurately and promptly as needed for diagnosis.

[0003] Vomit, as part of a patient's excretions, is usually collected in garbage bags in clinical nursing. However, garbage bags are prone to perforation, causing vomit to spill during collection. Furthermore, using garbage bags makes it inconvenient to measure the vomit, requiring medical staff to measure it separately, which is time-consuming and laborious. Utility Model Content

[0004] (1) Technical problems to be solved

[0005] In clinical nursing, garbage bags are commonly used to collect vomit, but these bags are prone to perforation, causing spillage during collection. Furthermore, using garbage bags makes it inconvenient to measure the vomit, requiring medical staff to measure it separately, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive.

[0006] (2) Technical solution

[0007] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a vomit measuring cup, including a measuring cup body, a drain pipe, a cross valve, and a measuring cup connector; it also includes a connecting screw, a transition cup, a delivery pipe, a vomit mask, an anti-clogging component, and graduation lines. The drain pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the measuring cup body, and the measuring cup connector is fixedly connected to the surface of the measuring cup body. A transition cup is provided on the surface of the measuring cup connector. The connecting screw is fixedly connected to the bottom of the transition cup, and the connecting screw and the transition cup are connected in communication. The connecting screw is threaded onto the surface of the measuring cup connector. The delivery pipe is connected to the surface of the transition cup, and a vomit mask is fixedly connected to the end of the delivery pipe. An anti-clogging component is also fixedly installed on the surface of the transition cup, and graduation lines are provided on the surface of the measuring cup body.

[0008] Preferably, both the measuring cup body and the transition cup body are made of medical transparent plastic material to ensure that the measuring cup body is not easily perforated. On the other hand, it allows for intuitive observation of the vomit collection and the color of the vomit, which is convenient for doctors to analyze. By setting scale lines, it is convenient and intuitive to measure the vomit, making it more hygienic and reliable to use. By setting anti-clogging components, the probability of the delivery tube being blocked during the vomit collection process is reduced.

[0009] Furthermore, a cross valve is fixedly installed on the surface of the discharge tube. When it is necessary to clean up the vomit later, the cross valve can be turned to make the opening of the discharge tube unobstructed, and the vomit in the measuring cup can be discharged through the discharge tube without the need for medical staff to pour it out. This can effectively prevent vomit from splashing onto medical staff and is more hygienic to handle.

[0010] Furthermore, the surface of the measuring cup body is symmetrically and fixedly connected with hanging rings, which facilitates the hanging of the measuring cup body when the collection is completed, and avoids the situation where medical staff accidentally slip off their hands.

[0011] Furthermore, both the measuring cup body and the transition cup body are made of medical-grade transparent plastic material to ensure that the measuring cup body is not easily perforated, and to allow for direct observation of the vomit collection and color, facilitating analysis by doctors.

[0012] Furthermore, the vomiting mask is made of transparent rubber material, which can better fit the patient's face and ensure that vomit will not splash onto the bed during vomiting, thus ensuring a safe and hygienic collection process.

[0013] Furthermore, an exhaust pipe is fixedly connected to the surface of the measuring cup body, and a pull rope is fixedly connected to the surface of the measuring cup body near the exhaust pipe. A sealing plug is fixedly connected to the end of the pull rope. The sealing plug is adapted to the exhaust pipe and can be opened when collecting vomit, thereby balancing the air pressure inside and outside the measuring cup body and ensuring that the vomit smoothly enters the measuring cup body.

[0014] Furthermore, the anti-clogging component includes a connecting hose, a syringe, a T-shaped slide bar, a first one-way valve, a side tube, a second one-way valve, and a piston. The connecting hose is fixedly connected to the surface of the transition cup and communicates with the transition cup. The syringe is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting hose. The piston and the T-shaped slide bar are slidably connected inside the syringe. The T-shaped slide bar and the piston are fixedly connected. The first one-way valve is fixedly connected inside the connecting hose, and the second one-way valve is fixedly connected inside the side tube. During use, when the vomit in the delivery tube is not transported smoothly, medical staff can pull the T-shaped slide bar to move the piston, thereby indirectly creating a negative pressure state inside the delivery tube. The pressure difference between the inside and outside assists the vomit into the transition cup, ensuring smoother collection.

Detailed Implementation

[0032] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0033] Example 1:

[0034] Please see Figure 1-8This utility model provides an embodiment of a vomit measuring cup, comprising a measuring cup body 1, a drain pipe 2, a cross valve 3, and a measuring cup connector 5; it also includes a connecting screw 6, a transition cup body 7, a delivery pipe 8, a vomit mask 9, an anti-blocking component, and graduation lines 17. The drain pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the measuring cup body 1, and the measuring cup connector 5 is fixedly connected to the surface of the measuring cup body 1. The transition cup body 7 is provided on the surface of the measuring cup connector 5, and the connecting screw 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the transition cup body 7. The connecting screw 6 and the transition cup body 7 are connected and threaded onto the surface of the measuring cup connector 5. The delivery pipe 8 is connected to the surface of the transition cup body 7, and the vomit mask 9 is fixedly connected to the end of the delivery pipe 8. An anti-blocking component is also fixedly installed on the surface of the transition cup body 7. The measuring cup body 1 has graduation lines 17, which facilitates the collection of vomit from patients and allows for convenient and intuitive measurement of vomit, making it more hygienic and reliable to use.

[0035] A cross valve 3 is fixedly installed on the surface of the discharge tube 2. When it is necessary to clean up the vomit later, the cross valve 3 can be turned to make the opening of the discharge tube 2 unobstructed, and the vomit in the measuring cup body 1 can be discharged through the discharge tube 2 without the need for medical staff to pour it out. This can effectively prevent vomit from splashing onto medical staff and is more hygienic to handle.

[0036] The surface of the measuring cup body 1 is symmetrically and fixedly connected with hanging rings 4, which makes it convenient to hang the measuring cup body 1 when the collection is completed, so as to avoid the accidental slippage of medical staff.

[0037] Both the measuring cup body 1 and the transition cup body 7 are made of medical transparent plastic material to ensure that the measuring cup body is not easily perforated, and to allow for direct observation of the collection of vomit and the color of vomit, which is convenient for doctors to analyze.

[0038] The Vomiting Mask 9 is made of transparent rubber material, which can better fit the patient's face and ensure that vomit will not splash onto the hospital bed during vomiting, ensuring a safe and hygienic collection process.

[0039] An exhaust pipe 18 is fixedly connected to the surface of the measuring cup body 1. A pull rope 20 is fixedly connected to the surface of the measuring cup body 1 near the exhaust pipe 18. A sealing plug 19 is fixedly connected to the end of the pull rope 202. The sealing plug 19 is compatible with the exhaust pipe 18. When collecting vomit, the sealing plug 19 can be opened to balance the air pressure inside and outside the measuring cup body 1, ensuring that the vomit enters the measuring cup body 1 smoothly.

[0040] It should be noted that a third one-way valve is fixedly connected inside the measuring cup connector 5 to prevent vomit from flowing back into the transition cup 7 from the measuring cup body 1.

[0041] Working principle: When using this measuring cup to collect the patient's vomit, first fix the transition cup 7 to the surface of the measuring cup connector 5 through the connecting screw 6, then put the vomit mask 9 on the patient's mouth and make the vomit mask 9 fit the patient's face, then open the sealing plug 19 to connect the exhaust pipe 18 to the outside, and then the patient's vomit can be collected.

[0042] During this process, the patient's vomit is collected through a vomiting mask 9, then transported through a delivery tube 8 to a transition cup 7, and finally falls directly into the measuring cup body 1 under its own gravity. The vomiting mask 9 is made of transparent rubber material, which can better fit the patient's face and ensure that the vomit will not splash onto the bed during the vomiting process, thus ensuring a safe and hygienic collection process.

[0043] During this process, medical staff can observe the amount of vomit collected in real time according to the scale line 17, without having to recalculate the amount of vomit after collection. Furthermore, both the measuring cup body 1 and the transition cup body 7 are made of medical transparent plastic material to ensure that the measuring cup body is not easily perforated. On the other hand, it allows for direct observation of the vomit collection and the color of the vomit, which is convenient for doctors to analyze.

[0044] After collection is complete, the sealing plug 19 is reinserted into the exhaust pipe 18 to seal the exhaust pipe 18. Then the collected measuring cup body 1 can be suspended on the nursing cart or other transport equipment via the hanging ring 4 to facilitate the transport of the measuring cup body 1 and avoid accidental slippage by medical staff.

[0045] After the test is completed, open the cross valve 3, and the vomit in the measuring cup body 1 can be discharged through the drain pipe 2. There is no need for medical staff and patients to pour it out, which can effectively prevent vomit from splashing on medical staff and is more hygienic to handle.

[0046] Example 2:

[0047] Please see Figure 1-8In this embodiment, the anti-blocking component includes a connecting hose 10, a syringe 11, a T-shaped slide bar 12, a first one-way valve 13, a side tube 14, a second one-way valve 15, and a piston 16. The connecting hose 10 is fixedly connected to the surface of the transition cup 7, and the connecting hose 10 is connected to the transition cup 7. The syringe 11 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting hose 10. The piston 16 and the T-shaped slide bar 12 are slidably connected inside the syringe 11, and the T-shaped slide bar 12 and the piston 16 are fixedly connected. The first one-way valve 13 is fixedly connected inside the connecting hose 10, and the second one-way valve 15 is fixedly connected inside the side tube 14. During use, when the vomit in the delivery tube 8 is not transported smoothly, medical staff can pull the T-shaped slide bar 12 to move the piston 16, thereby indirectly creating a negative pressure state inside the delivery tube 8. The pressure difference between the inside and outside assists the vomit into the transition cup 7, ensuring smoother collection.

[0048] During the collection process, if the vomit in the delivery tube 8 is not transported smoothly, the medical staff should quickly close the sealing plug 19 and then pull the T-shaped slide bar 12 outward. The movement of the T-shaped slide bar 12 will then drive the piston 16 to move inside the syringe 11, creating a negative pressure inside the syringe 11. This will then create a certain suction force on the vomit in the delivery tube 8, allowing the vomit to pass through the delivery tube 8 smoothly, reducing the collection difficulties caused by blockages and improving collection efficiency.

[0049] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
