Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of anesthesia facilities technology, specifically to a mouth diffuser for inhalation anesthesia. Background Technology

[0002] Inhalation anesthesia is a method of anesthesia that delivers anesthetic drugs into the patient's body through the respiratory system. In this type of anesthesia, volatile anesthetic drugs such as sevoflurane, isoflurane, or nitrous oxide are usually used. These anesthetics are in gaseous form and are inhaled by the patient. Generally speaking, this type of anesthesia requires monitoring and management by professional medical staff to ensure that the patient is in a safe anesthetic state during surgery or treatment.

[0003] To reduce adverse reactions during inhalation anesthesia, the staff will first administer mild anesthesia to the patient. Once the patient is in a mild anesthesia state, the staff will then use a mouth diffuser to dilate the patient's mouth and insert a breathing tube into the patient's throat to achieve deep anesthesia and complete the anesthesia procedure.

[0004] The above information explains the movement of the mouth diffuser during patient anesthesia. However, based on its actual performance during operation, it is clear that it still has shortcomings: the existing mouth diffuser only expands the patient's oral cavity, but after expansion, the tongue inside the oral cavity lacks corresponding restraints, causing considerable inconvenience for personnel when performing inhalation anesthesia; furthermore, during expansion, the mouth diffuser components are located at the front of the oral cavity, and although there is some space, the space is relatively limited, which can easily affect personnel performing anesthesia operations.

[0005] Therefore, this application proposes a mouth diffuser for inhalation anesthesia. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an inhalation-type anesthesia mouth diffuser, which solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

Detailed Implementation

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model are described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] To address the technical problems in the background section, the following mouth diffuser for inhalation anesthesia is provided:

[0029] Combination Figures 1-4 As shown, the present invention provides an inhalation anesthesia mouth diffuser, including a lower buckle assembly 1 and an upper buckle assembly 2. A first support component 3 is connected to one side of the top of the lower buckle assembly 1. An adjustment component 5 is connected to the upper side of the first support component 3. A corresponding second support component 4 is connected to the first support component 3 through the adjustment component 5. The upper buckle assembly 2 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the second support component 4, and the upper buckle assembly 2 corresponds to the lower buckle assembly 1. A tongue depressor component 6 is connected to the top of the lower buckle assembly 1.

[0030] During the procedure, the lower clip component 1 and the upper clip component 2 mimic the structure of braces. Through their cooperation, they align the lower and upper teeth in the patient's mouth, ensuring that the upper and lower teeth are restricted while reducing discomfort during mouth expansion. The first support component 3 and the second support component 4 are extension components that can extend the components inside the mouth outwards, facilitating the cooperation of the external components. Adjustment is then made through the adjustment component 5. This allows for targeted adjustment based on the size of the patient's mouth and fixation of the degree of mouth expansion, freeing the operator's hands for anesthesia. The tongue depressor component 6 not only expands the patient's mouth but also presses down on the patient's tongue after expansion, promoting complete abduction of the pharynx. Compared to traditional methods that directly expand the mouth and tongue, this effectively reduces damage to the patient's mouth and ensures patient comfort during inhalation anesthesia.

[0031] The adjusting component 5 includes an adjusting cap 51, a connecting screw 52, ​​and a guide rod 53. The connecting screw 52 is installed through the first supporting component 3. One end of the connecting screw 52 is connected to the second supporting component 4, and the other end is connected to the adjusting cap 51. The guide rod 53, which passes through the second supporting component 4, is connected to the inner side of the first supporting component 3. The tongue-pressing assembly 6 includes a lifting component 61 and a tongue-pressing component 62. The lifting component 61 is connected to the top of the lower buckle assembly 1, and the sliding end of the lifting component 61 is connected to the tongue-pressing component 62.

[0032] During the process, when the staff completes the expansion of the patient's oral cavity, they can rotate the adjusting cap 51, which in turn drives the docking screw 52 to rotate. At this time, it can work with the guide rod 53 to complete the expansion of the first support component 3 and the second support component 4, causing the first support component 3 and the second support component 4 to simultaneously drive the lower buckle component 1 and the upper buckle component 2 to expand the patient's oral cavity. After the expansion is completed, the staff can use the lifting component 61 to drive the tongue depressor 62 to descend, causing the tongue depressor 62 to extend into the patient's oral cavity, and use the tongue depressor 62 to press down the patient's tongue. The staff uses one hand to press down the tongue and the other hand to insert the anesthesia tube into the patient's throat to perform the anesthesia operation.

[0033] Example 2

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, based on the above embodiments, this embodiment further provides the following:

[0035] In this embodiment, the lower fastening component 1 includes a first outer fastener 11 and a first inner fastener sleeve 12, and the upper fastening component 2 includes a second outer fastener 21 and a second inner fastener sleeve 22. The bottoms of the first support component 3 and the second support component 4 are respectively connected and installed with the first outer fastener 11 and the second outer fastener 21, and the bottoms of the first outer fastener 11 and the second inner fastener sleeve 21 are respectively fixedly installed with the first inner fastener sleeve 12 and the second inner fastener sleeve 22 for cooperation.

[0036] During the process, the outer fastener aligns with the patient's outer tooth surface, while the inner fastener aligns with the patient's inner tooth surface. Through the interaction between the outer fastener and the inner tooth surface, the shape of the braces can be imitated, and the braces can be properly fitted to the patient's teeth.

[0037] In this embodiment, both the first support component 3 and the second support component 4 are composed of a support rod 31 and a mounting plate 32. The top of both the lower buckle assembly 1 and the upper buckle assembly 2 are fixedly installed with the support rod 31, and the top of the support rod 31 is connected to the mounting plate 32 that cooperates with each other.

[0038] The support rod 31 and the mounting plate 32 are extension parts, which can complete the installation connection between the components inside the oral cavity and the external components. When force is applied to the support rod 31 and the mounting plate 32, it will simultaneously drive the linkage between the lower fastening component 1 and the upper fastening component 2 to complete the required adjustment.

[0039] Example 3

[0040] like Figures 1-4 As shown, based on the above embodiments, this embodiment further provides the following:

[0041] In this embodiment, the lifting component 61 includes a mounting frame 611, a top plate 612, a snap-fit ​​sleeve 613, a guide block 614, and a guide component 615. The mounting frame 611 is mounted on the top of the first outer fastener 11. The top plate 612 is fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting frame 611, and the snap-fit ​​sleeve 613 is fixedly mounted on one side of the top plate 612. The guide component 615 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting frame 611, and the guide block 614, which is connected to the tongue depressor component 62, is slidably mounted on the guide component 615.

[0042] During this process, once the oral cavity is expanded, the operator can separate the tip of the tongue depressor 62, which is stuck in the clip sleeve 613. Then, through the cooperation between the guide block 614 and the guide component 615, the tongue depressor 62 is driven to descend, causing it to extend into the patient's oral cavity. In this way, the operator can use the tongue depressor 62 to press down on the tongue.

[0043] In this embodiment, the tongue depressor 62 includes a connecting rod 621, a lever 622, a mounting base 623, a movable pin 624, a docking plate 625, and a tongue depressor 626. The mounting base 623 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the guide block 614. The docking plate 625 is movably installed inside the mounting base 623 via the movable pin 624. The tongue depressor 626 is docked at the bottom of the docking plate 625, the connecting rod 621 is docked at the top of the docking plate 625, and the lever 622 is docked at the top of the connecting rod 621.

[0044] By combining the above, when the tongue depressor 626 extends into the patient's oral cavity, the operator can apply force to the lever 622, causing the lever 622 to move the tongue depressor 626 through the connecting rod 621. At that time, the tongue depressor 626 will move at a fixed point in the mounting base 623 through the movable pin 624, causing the tongue depressor 626 to press down on the patient's tongue. When the tongue is pressed down, the pharynx is fully exposed, and the operator can then insert the anesthesia tube into the pharynx for inhalation anesthesia.

[0045] In this embodiment, the top of the first outer fastener 11 is provided with a mating interface 111, and the bottom of the mating interface 111 is provided with a plug interface 112.

[0046] The lifting component 61 also includes a connector 616. The mounting bracket 611 is installed in conjunction with the connector 111. The bottom of the mounting bracket 611 is fixedly installed with a connector 616 that is inserted into the connector 112.

[0047] During this period, once the work is completed, the flaring tool can be disassembled, cleaned, and disinfected.

[0048] This requires separating the lifting component 61 from the first outer fastener 11. The separation method involves applying force to the lifting component 61 to cause the connector 616 at the bottom of the lifting component 61 to separate from the insertion interface 112. At that time, the interface 111 and the lifting component 61 are separated again, completing the disassembly.

[0049] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.

[0050] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features.
