Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ultrasound technology, specifically to a coupling agent heating and extrusion device. Background Technology

[0002] Medical coupling agent is a medical product composed of a new generation of water-based polymer gel. It has a neutral pH, is non-toxic and harmless to the human body, does not easily dry out or become rancid, provides clear ultrasound imaging, has suitable viscosity, is non-greasy, allows the probe to slide easily, can moisten the skin, eliminate air bubbles on the skin surface, has good lubrication properties, and is easy to deploy; it does not corrode or damage the ultrasound probe; ultrasound coupling agents with bactericidal and disinfecting functions have appeared on the market, which, compared to traditional ordinary coupling agents, have stricter production environment requirements and a wider range of applications.

[0003] A relevant reference is Chinese utility model patent CN114366148A, which discloses a heating and extrusion device for ultrasonic coupling agent. The device includes an extrusion assembly with a guide rod inside. A sliding sleeve is slidably connected to the outer wall of the guide rod. A handle is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding sleeve, and a pull rope is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sliding sleeve. A steering wheel is slidably connected to the top of the pull rope. In this ultrasonic coupling agent heating and extrusion device, when the handle is pulled to the right, the piston plate slides downwards inside the metering chamber, further decoupling the material chamber from the metering chamber. The coupling agent inside the metering chamber then flows out through a one-way discharge channel. Releasing the handle creates a negative pressure inside the metering chamber, connecting the material chamber to the metering chamber through a connecting channel. This negative pressure then draws in the coupling agent from the material chamber, completing the metering process and achieving precise metering to avoid material waste.

[0004] Based on the search of the aforementioned patents and the findings of existing devices, it was discovered that coupling agent is required when using an ultrasound probe. When using the coupling agent, it needs to be squeezed out of the bottle. The traditional squeezing method is manual, which leads to the coupling agent being squeezed out of place and wasted when medical staff are busy. The coupling agent is also relatively cool when used, resulting in poor contact sensation for patients in cold weather. All these problems affect the use of the device. Utility Model Content
