Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of storage tool technology, and in particular to a drain rack for nursing instruments in a supply room. Background Technology
[0002] Central supply room (CSU) nursing is an important part of hospital nursing work, mainly involving the cleaning, disinfection, sterilization, and supply management of medical devices and supplies within the hospital. This ensures the safety and effectiveness of medical supplies and supports clinical nursing and medical work. After sterilization, instruments need to be placed on drying racks to prevent microbial growth and contamination.
[0003] However, most existing drain racks have limitations in design and usage. These drain racks are typically installed by hanging them on the side of the sink, and their structure is often quite compact and close to the sink wall. When medical instruments are placed on these drain racks after cleaning and disinfection, air circulation is greatly hindered around the rack, especially on the side that is in contact with the sink wall. This lack of air circulation affects the drainage rate and can easily lead to the growth of new bacteria over time. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the limitations in the design and use of most existing drain racks. These drain racks are typically installed by hanging them on the side of a sink, and their structure is often quite compact and close to the sink wall. When medical instruments are placed on these drain racks after cleaning and disinfection, air circulation is greatly obstructed around the rack, especially on the side that is in contact with the sink wall. This lack of air circulation affects the drainage rate and can easily lead to the growth of new bacteria over time. Therefore, this invention proposes a drain rack for nursing instruments in the supply room.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a drain rack for nursing instruments in a supply room, hung on the side wall of a water tank, including a base frame and a top frame. A support rod is fixedly connected between the base frame and the top frame. A buckle is provided at one end of the top frame. The buckle includes a second U-shaped rod and an inner baffle. An outer baffle is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second U-shaped rod. Both ends of the second U-shaped rod are bent downwards to form a bent portion. Both ends of the inner baffle are fixedly connected to mounting seats. The mounting seats are movably connected to the bent portions. One end of the top frame is installed at the corner formed by the inner baffle and the bent portions. The outer baffle and the inner baffle overlap the inner and outer walls of the water tank, respectively. A hinge seat is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support rod. A rotating rod is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the hinge seat. A support foot is rotatably connected to the bottom end of the rotating rod.
[0006] Preferably, the base frame includes a lower connecting part, the two ends of the lower connecting part are bent outward to form a support part, and a drain rod is fixedly connected between the inner sidewalls of the lower connecting part.
[0007] Preferably, the top frame includes an upper connecting part and a cover frame, and a U-shaped rod is fixedly connected to the upper surface of one end of the upper connecting part.
[0008] Preferably, a handle is fixedly connected to one end of the capping frame, and a card holder is fixedly connected to the other end of the capping frame.
[0009] Preferably, the inner wall of the card holder is embedded with a sponge pad.
[0010] Preferably, the outer walls of both the drain rod and the support rod are coated with an anti-rust coating.
[0011] Preferably, the support foot is equipped with a magnet or suction cup inside.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] 1. In this utility model, the drain rack can be flipped over by the buckle frame to change from a state of being attached to the side wall of the water tank to a state of being suspended. The unfolded rotating rod makes the support feet attach to the side wall of the water tank to form a triangular support structure, so that the drain rack can be properly ventilated on all six sides, effectively accelerating the drying rate of the equipment and improving the situation of poor ventilation.
[0014] 2. In this utility model, good ventilation can be achieved simply by flipping and unfolding, which makes it convenient to dry the processed medical and nursing instruments. Since the draining and drying processes are carried out on the side wall of the pool, the drain rack does not need to be moved, which reduces the workload and improves the convenience of use.
[0015] 3. In this utility model, the U-shaped rod and the inner baffle are disassembled and separated, and the drain rack is used alone. The lower connecting part is suspended in the air by the support part. Because the space under the lower connecting part is reserved, water can fall directly onto the countertop, thereby ensuring that the space above the lower connecting part is dry. This allows the drain rack to be used both by hanging it on the sink wall and by standing it on the countertop, making the drain rack applicable to different usage scenarios.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0024] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.
[0025] Example: Figure 1-6As shown, this utility model provides a drain rack for nursing instruments in a supply room, which is hung on the side wall of a sink. It includes a base frame 1 and a top frame 3. A support rod 2 is fixedly connected between the base frame 1 and the top frame 3. A buckle 4 is provided at one end of the top frame 3. The buckle 4 includes a U-shaped rod 41 and an inner baffle 43. An outer baffle 42 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the U-shaped rod 41. Both ends of the U-shaped rod 41 are bent downwards to form bent portions 45. Mounting seats 44 are fixedly connected to both ends of the inner baffle 43. The mounting seats 44 are movably connected to the bent portions 45. One end of the support rod 3 is installed at the corner formed by the inner baffle 43 and the bend 45. The outer baffle 42 and the inner baffle 43 are respectively attached to the inner and outer walls of the pool. The outer wall of the support rod 2 is fixedly connected to the hinge seat 5. The outer wall of the hinge seat 5 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 6. The bottom end of the rotating rod 6 is rotatably connected to the support foot 7. After the medical and nursing equipment is used, it is transported to the disinfection room for a series of sterilization, disinfection, and cleaning operations before it can be used again. The drain rack is hung on the outside of the side wall of the pool by the buckle 4. The buckle 4 is divided into The mounting base 44 and the bent part 45 are detachable and can be assembled and disassembled using magnetic, pin, or threaded connections. One end of the top frame 3 is placed between the inner baffle 43 of the U-shaped rod 41, and the outer baffle 42 and inner baffle 43 are inserted onto both sides of the pool. The entire drain rack then rests against the outer wall of the pool. After medical and nursing equipment has been processed, it can be placed directly inside the drain rack, which is very convenient. Alternatively, after all medical and nursing equipment has been processed, hanging the drain rack on the pool wall would result in poor ventilation. To facilitate the drying of medical and nursing instruments in the drain rack, the top frame 3 is rotated 80-85° around the buckle frame 4, changing the drain rack from a state attached to the side wall of the sink to a suspended state. The rotating rod 6 is then extended downwards, so that the support foot 7 is attached to the side wall of the sink. The rotating rod 6, the support rod 2, and the side wall of the sink form a triangular support structure, allowing the drain rack to maintain this suspended state for a long time. All six sides of the drain rack can be properly ventilated, which speeds up the drying process of medical and nursing instruments. Moreover, there is no need to move the drain rack, which is very convenient.
[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, the base frame 1 includes a lower connecting part 12. The two ends of the lower connecting part 12 are bent outward to form a support part 11. A drain rod 13 is fixedly connected between the inner side walls of the lower connecting part 12. In addition to being used to hang on the wall of the sink, the drain rack can also be used to be placed directly on the platform. After disassembling the U-shaped rod 41 and the inner baffle 43, the buckle 4 can be separated from the top frame 3. The lower connecting part 12 forms a support part 11 downward. The support part 11 is used to suspend the lower connecting part 12. Since there is a reserved space under the lower connecting part 12, water falls directly onto the platform, keeping the space above the lower connecting part 12 dry.
[0027] like Figure 4As shown, the top frame 3 includes an upper connecting part 31 and a cover frame 34. A U-shaped rod 32 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of one end of the upper connecting part 31. A handle 33 is fixedly connected to one end of the cover frame 34, and a card seat 35 is fixedly connected to the other end of the cover frame 34. When the drain rack is drying, its body is in a horizontal position, and the internal instruments are easy to slide out of the top opening. A U-shaped rod 32 is set at the upper end of the upper connecting part 31. The U-shaped rod 32 is equipped with an adjustable cover frame 34. One end of the cover frame 34 is limited by the handle 33 to prevent it from completely detaching from the U-shaped rod 32. When horizontal, the cover frame 34 slides down under the action of gravity, so that the cover frame 34 completely seals the upper opening of the upper connecting part 31. The cover frame 34 is hung on the U-shaped rod 32 by the handle 33. The cover frame 34 restricts the instruments inside the drain rack from falling out.
[0028] like Figure 4 As shown, a sponge pad is embedded in the inner wall of the card holder 35. When some nursing instruments exceed the length of the drain rack, the capping frame 34 cannot completely seal the upper connecting part 31, and the long instruments can still easily fall off the drain rack. A card holder 35 is provided at the tail end of the upper connecting part 31. A disposable and replaceable sponge pad is embedded in the card holder 35. The sponge pad is flexible and can be used to clamp the tail end of the long instrument to prevent it from falling off the drain rack.
[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the outer walls of the drain rod 13 and the support rod 2 are coated with an anti-rust coating. When draining and drying, water in the equipment may come out from the bottom of the drain rack or from the side of the drain rack. Water is easy to react with metal and rust. Coating the outer walls with an anti-rust coating can extend the service life of the drain rack.
[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the support foot 7 has a magnet or suction cup installed inside. When the side wall of the pool is made of metal, the magnet inside the support foot 7 is used to fix the position of the support foot 7 by magnetic attraction. When the side wall of the pool is made of ceramic, the support foot 7 can be fitted with a suction cup. By squeezing the air out of the suction cup by hand, the suction cup can be fixed to the inner wall of the pool.
[0031] The usage and working principle of this device: After use, medical and nursing devices are transported to the disinfection room, where they are sterilized, disinfected, and cleaned before being placed in a drain rack;
[0032] To improve ventilation, flip the top frame 3 around the buckle frame 4 and unfold the rotating rod 6 so that the drain rack is suspended in a six-sided ventilation state. When drying, the position of the cover frame 34 can be adjusted to prevent the instruments from slipping. Long instruments are held in place by the sponge pad inside the card holder 35.
[0033] Alternatively, the drain rack can be placed on the platform, the U-shaped rod 41 and the inner baffle 43 can be removed, and the drain rack can be used with the buckle 4, so that the lower connecting part 12 is suspended in the air, and the water can be drained on the countertop using the suspended space.
[0034] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
