[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: an obstetric delivery tool, including a water bath delivery tank 1, a support frame 2, an inflatable cushion 3, a handrail 4, a headrest 5, a rubber pad 6, a side window 7, a sealing plate 8, a sealing inner pad 9, a discharge pipe 10, a heated water tank 11, a water inlet pipe 12, a partition 13, a filter packing 14, a transfer pipe 15, a micro water pump 16, and an electric heating coil 17. The support frame 2 is fixed to the bottom of one side of the water bath delivery tank 1, and the inflatable cushion 3 is installed on the support frame 2. The handrail 4 is installed on the inner wall of the water bath delivery tank 1. The headrest 5 is rotatably installed on the top of one side of the water bath delivery tank 1. The rubber pad 6 is installed on the bottom of the inner side of the water bath delivery tank 1. The above structural design can meet the actual obstetric needs and ensure the comfort of the water bath delivery tank 1.

[0022] A side window 7 is provided on the side wall of the water bath delivery tank 1. The overall height of the side window 7 is greater than half the overall height of the side wall of the water bath delivery tank 1. The side windows 7 are symmetrically distributed about the center of the water bath delivery tank 1. The above structural design allows the mother to enter and exit conveniently through the side window 7.

[0023] When using this device, first move the sealing plate 8 upwards to separate the sealing plate 8 and the sealing pad 9 from the side window 7. Then, the mother enters the water bath delivery tank 1 through the side window 7. After that, the sealing plate 8 and the sealing pad 9 are reinstalled and reset.

[0024] On the side wall of the water bath delivery tub 1 outside the side window 7, a sealing clamping plate 8 is installed. Inside the sealing clamping plate 8, a sealing inner pad 9 is fixedly installed. The length and width of the sealing clamping plate 8 are both greater than the length and width of the side window 7. The side view cross-section of the sealing clamping plate 8 is a "冂" shape with a narrow width. The above structural design enables the sealing clamping plate 8 and the sealing inner pad 9 to stably block the side window 7, ensuring that the side window 7 does not leak water during normal operation. The side surface of the sealing inner pad 9 fits against the inner wall of the side window 7. At the bottom of the other side of the water bath delivery tub 1, a discharge pipe 10 is fixedly installed. On the outer wall of the other side of the water bath delivery tub 1, a heating water tank 11 is fixed. On one side of the top of the heating water tank 11, a water inlet pipe 12 is fixedly installed;

[0025] Inside the heating water tank 11, a partition plate 13 is fixedly installed. The center of the partition plate 13 and the center of the heating water tank 11 are in the same vertical plane. The top surface of the partition plate 13 is higher than the horizontal plane where the center of the heating water tank 11 is located. The above structural design enables the partition plate 13 to separate the inner space of the heating water tank 11, extend the retention time of water in the heating water tank 11, and ensure long-term contact between water and the filtering filler 14 in the heating water tank 11. Filtering fillers 14 are arranged inside the heating water tank 11 on both sides of the partition plate 13. On the other side of the top of the heating water tank 11, a transfer pipe 15 is fixedly installed. The bottom end of the transfer pipe 15 is at the same height as the bottom end of the water inlet pipe 12. The bottom end of the water inlet pipe 12 is lower than the top end of the partition plate 13. The above structural design enables water to be discharged from the bottom end of the water inlet pipe 12, accumulate in the filtering filler 14 in the space on one side of the partition plate 13. After the water surface rises to the top of the partition plate 13, it overflows into the filtering filler 14 on the other side, flows downward through the filtering filler 14 on the other side, and finally is discharged through the transfer pipe 15. A micro water pump 16 is installed on the transfer pipe 15. The top end of the transfer pipe 15 is connected to the top of the other side of the water bath delivery tub 1;

[0026] Inside the side wall of the heating water tank 1, electric heating coils 17 are embedded and installed. The electric heating coils 17 are distributed at equal intervals. The above structural design can uniformly heat the water in the heating water tank 11;

[0027] Then, power is supplied to the electric heating coils 17, and water is input through the water pump connected to the water inlet pipe 12 in Figure 2 Water is discharged from the bottom end of the water inlet pipe 12. The water accumulates in the filtering filler 14 in the space on the left side of the partition plate 13. During the accumulation process, the water moves upward and contacts the filtering filler 14 in the space on the left side of the partition plate 13 for filtration. After the water surface rises to the top of the partition plate 13, it overflows into the filtering filler 14 on the right side of the partition plate 13, flows downward through the filtering filler 14 on the right side of the partition plate 13. The micro water pump 16 is started, and the filtered and heated clear water is discharged into the water bath delivery tub 1 through the transfer pipe 15, facilitating the water bath delivery.

[0028] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
