Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of breast pump technology, and more specifically, to a multifunctional breast pump. Background Technology
[0002] A breast pump is a device that helps mothers express breast milk from their breasts. It is very useful for mothers who need to store breast milk or are unable to breastfeed directly, such as when a mother returns to work, when a baby has difficulty sucking, or when a premature baby is born.
[0003] Most breast pumps currently in use are either integrated with a T-joint, or the T-joint is connected to the main body via a connecting tube, making them separate units. These two structures are used in different situations, requiring users to purchase two separate breast pumps. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a multifunctional breast pump that can be directly installed on the three-way fitting and can also be used to support one or two breast pumps at a time via the base.
[0005] To solve the above problems, this utility model adopts the following technical solution. A multifunctional breast pump includes a main unit, a three-way connector, a breast pump cover mounted on the three-way connector, and a storage bottle. The three-way connector is also provided with a suction port. The pump further includes:
[0006] The base has an internal cavity, at least one connecting valve communicating with the cavity is installed on the side wall, and a through hole communicating with the cavity and cooperating with the main unit is opened on the top. The main unit can be detachably installed on the base.
[0007] A cover is detachably mounted on the suction port, and the cover is provided with a connection port;
[0008] The main unit is directly installed on the suction port for milk suction, or the main unit is installed on the base and the cover is installed on the suction port, and the suction port is connected to the connecting valve through the connecting tube for milk suction.
[0009] Preferably, a negative pressure chamber is installed inside the suction port, and a one-way valve is installed inside the three-way fitting to allow milk to flow unidirectionally into the storage bottle.
[0010] Preferably, the bottom of the main unit is a mounting part that connects to the suction port and the base, and the mounting part is provided with a suction hole; the mounting part is connected to the suction port and the base by a threaded connection or an embedded snap-fit.
[0011] Preferably, the mounting portion is recessed to form an annular groove, and the suction port is retracted to form a mounting ring that fits into the annular groove; the top of the base is recessed to form a groove that fits into the mounting portion, and a protruding ring that fits into the annular groove is provided in the groove.
[0012] Preferably, the main unit further includes a drive pump, which is installed in communication with the suction port.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] The main unit can be directly installed on the suction port of the three-way fitting for integrated use; alternatively, the main unit can be detached and installed on the base, with the cover installed on the suction port, and then the cover and the connecting valve on the base can be connected via a connecting tube for separate use; since there are two connecting valves, one base can connect two three-way fittings, thus enabling simultaneous milk suction from both breasts; in this way, one machine can perform three functions, greatly expanding its application range.

[0025] refer to Figure 1-4 A multifunctional breast pump includes a main unit 1, a three-way connector 2, a breast pump cover 3 mounted on the three-way connector 2, and a storage bottle 4. The three-way connector 2 is also provided with a suction port 5. The pump also includes a base 6, which has a cavity 61 inside. At least one connecting valve 62 communicating with the cavity 61 is installed on the side wall, and a through hole 63 is opened on the top, communicating with the cavity 61 and cooperating with the main unit 1. The main unit 1 is detachably mounted on the base 6. A cover 7 is detachably mounted on the suction port 5, and the cover 7 is provided with a connection port 71. The main unit 1 is directly mounted on the suction port 5 for breast pumping, or the main unit 1 is mounted on the base 6 and the cover 7 is mounted on the suction port 5, and the suction port 5 is connected to the connecting valve 62 through a connecting pipe 8 for breast pumping.
[0026] Understandably, the main unit 1 provides components such as suction drive and switch control, which can be achieved through a drive pump, circuit panel, etc. This is existing technology and will not be elaborated further here. The storage bottle 4 is a component for storing breast milk, which can be bottled, bagged, etc., but is not limited to these. The three-way connector 2 is existing technology and will not be elaborated further here. The breast shield 3 is a funnel-shaped structure that fits snugly against the breast and provides a sealing function. The base 6 can support the main unit 1, allowing it to be placed on a table or other platform. The connecting valve 62 is a component that connects to the cover 7 through the connecting pipe 8, which can be, for example, a pipe, a manual or automatic switch valve, etc., but is not limited to these. The through hole 63 connects to the main unit 1, allowing the suction of the main unit 1 to act on the cavity 61. The connection between the through hole 63 and the main unit 1 can be a relative connection between empty spaces, or a fitting connection between a pipe and a hole, etc., but is not limited to these. The detachable connection between the cover 7 and the suction port 5, the main unit 1 and the suction port 5, and the main unit 1 and the base 6 can be a threaded connection or an embedded snap-fit connection, but is not limited to these.
[0027] For reference, please refer to this setting. Figure 1 The main unit 1 can be directly installed on the suction port 5 of the three-way fitting 2 for integrated use; see reference.
