[0001] This application relates to the field of medical device transport technology, and in particular to a transport bag and transport box. Background Technology
[0002] An endoscope is a tube equipped with a light source that allows visualization of the internal structure of the human body or objects through natural openings. It has wide applications in both medical and industrial fields. Medical endoscopes, as medical devices, are inserted into various cavities within the human body to visualize internal organ lesions, playing a crucial role in clinical observation and diagnosis. In current technology, when transporting endoscopes, they are typically placed on a tray, which is then covered by a transport bag with two closed edges.
[0003] In the process of developing this application, the inventors discovered that in the related technology, the transport bag only has two closed edges covering the pallet. During transportation, gaps can easily appear between the transport bag and the pallet opening, allowing the inside of the pallet to communicate with the outside through these gaps, which in turn can easily cause contamination of the endoscope.

[0024] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0025] It should be noted that the application objects of the technical solution of this application include, but are not limited to, endoscopes, scalpels, scissors, forceps, catheters, injection heads, gauze, etc., and may also be other medical devices. In this application, it is described as being applied to endoscopes.
[0026] Please see Figure 1 The transport bag 100 includes a bag body 10, which has a receiving cavity 10a and a bag opening 10b communicating with the receiving cavity 10a. The endoscope to be transported is placed on a tray, and the transport bag 100 can cover the tray from the bag opening 10b.
[0027] Regarding the bag body 10 mentioned above, as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the bag body 10 includes a first part 101 and a second part 102. The second part 102 is connected to the first part 101. A first folded edge 10c is provided between the first part 101 and the second part 102. The first part 101 and the second part 102 are folded together and connected along the first folded edge 10c. The bag opening 10b is located on the first part 101. The first part 101 includes a plurality of first connecting edges 1011, and the second part 102 includes a plurality of second connecting edges 1022. One second connecting edge 1022 is correspondingly connected to one first connecting edge 1011, so that the bag body 10 forms multiple With the connecting edges in place, when transporting endoscopes or other medical devices, the user simply places the endoscope or other medical device to be transported on the tray, then covers the tray from the bag opening 10b until the tray is located within the receiving cavity 10a. Multiple connecting edges on the bag body 10 are then used to adhere to the periphery of the tray, ensuring the tray is within the sealed receiving cavity 10a. This arrangement, where multiple connecting edges of the transport bag 100 cover the tray, avoids gaps between the transport bag 100 and the tray, reducing the risk of contamination of the transported endoscope or other medical device. It is understood that the first part 101 and the second part 102 are folded and connected along the first folded edge 10c, which constitutes one of the connecting edges of the transport bag 100.
[0028] Optionally, the bag body 10 is made of a flexible material, which may include one or more combinations of polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyester, polystyrene, and polyamide. It should be noted that the dimensions of the first portion 101 and the second portion 102 are not specifically limited in this application; users can set them according to actual needs. For example, the width of both the first portion 101 and the second portion 102 is 53cm, the length of both the first portion 101 and the second portion 102 is 64cm, the width of the bag opening 10b is 40cm, and the length of the bag opening 10b is 50cm. Another example: the width of both the first portion 101 and the second portion 102 is 60cm, and the length of both the first portion 101 and the second portion 102 is 70cm.
[0029] In some embodiments, the plurality of first connecting edges 1011 include a first upper edge 1011a, a first side edge 1011b, and a first lower edge 1011c, with the first side edge 1011b located between the first upper edge 1011a and the first lower edge 1011c. The plurality of second connecting edges 1022 include a second upper edge 1022a, a second side edge 1022b, and a second lower edge 1022c, with the second side edge 1022b located between the second upper edge 1022a and the second lower edge 1022c. The second upper edge 1022a is connected to the first upper edge 1011a, the second side edge 1022b is connected to the first side edge 1011b, and the second lower edge 1022c is connected to the first lower edge 1011c. This configuration ensures that the bag body 10 has three connecting edges.
[0030] In some embodiments, the transport bag satisfies at least one of the following conditions: a heat-sealed connection is formed between the first upper edge 1011a and the second upper edge 1022a; a heat-sealed connection is formed between the first side edge 1011b and the second side edge 1022b; and a heat-sealed connection is formed between the first lower edge 1011c and the second lower edge 1022c. It is understood that the connection method between the first upper edge 1011a and the second upper edge 1022a, the connection method between the first side edge 1011b and the second side edge 1022b, and the connection method between the first lower edge 1011c and the second lower edge 1022c are not limited to the aforementioned heat-sealed connection, but may also be other methods, such as adhesive bonding.
[0031] In some embodiments, the first portion 101 and the second portion 102 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the first folded edge 10c, so that after the first portion 101 and the second portion 102 are folded together, they can fit together and the fitting area is substantially the same, so as to form a complete transport bag.
[0032] It should be noted that, since medical equipment includes both clean and contaminated devices, it is necessary to strictly distinguish between the two types of equipment when transporting medical equipment using the transport bag 100 to avoid confusion and cross-contamination. In this application, to distinguish between clean and contaminated equipment, the bag body 10 is typically set to a different color. This color can be one or a combination of red, blue, green, yellow, orange, purple, black, and white, as long as the different colors can distinguish between the different devices. For example, a green bag body 10 represents clean equipment placed in the tray, while a red bag body 10 represents contaminated equipment placed in the tray.
[0033] In some embodiments, the bag body 10 is transparent, and the transport bag 100 is substantially transparent. When no endoscope to be transported is placed on the tray, the transparent bag body 10 covers the tray, and a portion of the transparent bag body 10 can be located inside the tray. Then, the endoscope to be transported is placed, and a transport bag 100 of another color is subsequently wrapped around it. In this case, the transparent transport bag 100 can reduce the impact on the transport bags 100 of other colors. At the same time, the transparent transport bag 100 can reduce the direct contact between the endoscope to be transported and the tray, thereby reducing the risk of contamination of the endoscope to be transported.
[0034] In some embodiments, please refer to the following: Figure 3 To more clearly distinguish the types of equipment in the transport bag 100, a first identification symbol 1021 is also provided on the outer surface of the second part 102. This first identification symbol 1021 can be used to distinguish the types of equipment in the transport bag 100. The first identification symbol 1021 can be different text, graphics, emoticons, or other forms. For example, a smiling face indicates that the equipment placed on the tray inside the transport bag 100 is clean; a crying face indicates that the equipment placed on the tray inside the transport bag 100 is contaminated; a checkmark (√) indicates that the equipment placed on the tray inside the transport bag 100 is clean; and an X indicates that the equipment placed on the tray inside the transport bag 100 is contaminated. It is understood that the color of the transport bag 100 and the first symbol can be used simultaneously or individually, and the user can set them according to actual needs. This application does not impose specific limitations on this.
[0035] It should be noted that when the bag body 10 is transparent, different identification symbols can be set on the inner and outer walls of the bag body 10 respectively. Users can use the transparent transport bag 100 on both sides. For example, the inner wall is set with a smiling face and the outer wall is set with a crying face. When cleaning equipment is placed on the tray, the user can turn the transport bag 100 over so that the smiling face on the inner wall is exposed on the outer surface, and then use the transport bag 100 to cover the tray. When contamination equipment is placed on the tray, the user can directly use the transport bag 100 to cover the tray. At this time, the crying face on the outer wall is exposed on the outer surface.
[0036] In this embodiment, a bag body 10 is provided, which has a receiving cavity 10a and a bag opening communicating with the receiving cavity 10a. The bag body 10 includes a first part 101 and a second part 102. The second part 102 is connected to the first part 101. A first folded edge 10c is provided between the first part 101 and the second part 102. The first part 101 and the second part 102 are folded together and connected along the first folded edge 10c. The bag opening is located on the first part 101. The first part 101 includes a plurality of first connecting edges 1011. The second part 102 includes a plurality of second connecting edges 1022. One second connecting edge 1022 is correspondingly connected to one first connecting edge 1011, so that the bag body 10 forms a plurality of connecting edges. When transporting endoscopes or other medical devices, users simply place the endoscope or other medical device to be transported on the tray, then cover the tray from the bag opening until the tray is located within the receiving cavity 10a. The multiple connecting edges on the bag body 10 are then used to fit against the periphery of the tray, so that the tray is located within the sealed receiving cavity 10a. This ensures that the endoscope or other medical device located within the tray is also within the sealed receiving cavity 10a. With this arrangement, the multiple connecting edges of the transport bag cover the tray, avoiding gaps between the transport bag and the tray opening and reducing the risk of contamination of the endoscope or other medical device to be transported.
[0037] This application also provides an embodiment of a transport box, such as... Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the transport box includes a box body 200 and a cover 300. The box body 200 has a receiving space 200a and an opening 200b communicating with the receiving space 200a. The cover 300 covers the opening 200b, and the periphery of the cover 300 is connected to the periphery of the box body 200. The endoscope or other medical device to be transported is placed into the receiving space 200a through the opening 200b. Then, the cover 300 is used to cover the box body 200 to seal the receiving space 200a, reducing the entry of external dust or other impurities into the box body 200, thereby reducing the risk of contamination of the endoscope or other medical device to be transported. It is understood that the endoscopes or other medical devices to be transported can also be placed on a tray, and then the tray is placed into the receiving space 200a through the opening 200b. The box body 200 covers the entire tray, and then the box body 200 is sealed with the cover plate 300. The tray can reduce the direct contact between the endoscopes or other medical devices to be transported and the transport box, thereby reducing the risk of contamination of the endoscopes or other medical devices to be transported.
[0038] In some embodiments, the cover plate 300 includes a first surface 300a and a second surface 300b disposed opposite to each other. When the cover plate 300 covers the opening 200b, either the first surface 300a or the second surface 300b is located within the receiving space 200a. Both different sides of the cover plate 300 can cover the opening 200b, such that either the first surface 300a or the second surface 300b on the cover plate 300 is exposed. Optionally, a second identification symbol 3001 is provided on the first surface 300a, and a third identification symbol 3002 is provided on the second surface 300b. When the first surface 300a is exposed, the second identification symbol 3001 is exposed; when the second surface 300b is exposed, the third identification symbol 3002 is exposed. It is understandable that when different identification symbols are exposed, they represent different types of endoscopes located within the box body 200. Two different identification symbols correspond to different types of endoscopes. For example, the second identification symbol 3001 is a smiling face, indicating that the endoscope within the box body 200 is in a clean state, while the third identification symbol 3002 is a crying face, indicating that the endoscope within the box body 200 is in a contaminated state. The second identification symbol 3001 and the third identification symbol 3002 can be different text, graphics, expressions, or other forms.
[0039] It should be noted that users can flip the cover 300 as needed to expose either the second identification symbol 3001 or the third identification symbol 3002. Specifically, one side of the cover 300 has a mark indicating cleanliness, and the other side has a mark indicating contamination. For example, when the second identification symbol 3001 indicates that the endoscope inside the box body 200 is clean, and the third identification symbol 3002 indicates that the endoscope inside the box body 200 is contaminated, the transport box with the second identification symbol 3001 exposed is transported to a preset position. After the medical personnel use the endoscope, it is placed back into the box body 200. At this time, the medical personnel need to flip the cover 300 to expose the third identification symbol 3002, facilitating the identification of different types of endoscopes. Furthermore, the medical personnel do not need to replace the transport box; simply flipping the cover 300 is sufficient, saving time and effort and providing greater convenience.
[0040] It is understood that the second identification symbol 3001 and the third identification symbol 3002 can also be used in combination with different colors or used alone. For example, the second identification symbol 3001 is a green smiley face, which indicates that the endoscope located in the box body 200 is in a clean state, and the third identification symbol 3002 is a red crying face, which indicates that the endoscope located in the box body 200 is in a contaminated state.
[0041] In some embodiments, a stepped portion 2001 extends from the periphery of the box body 200 in a direction away from the receiving space 200a. A snap-fit protrusion 2002 is provided on the side of the stepped portion 2001 away from the cover plate 300. A snap-fit groove 200b is spaced between the snap-fit protrusion 2002 and the outer wall of the box body 200. The snap-fit groove 200b is used to cooperate with a component of the cover plate 300, so that the cover plate 300 is locked onto the box body 200, thereby ensuring the airtightness of the receiving space 200a.
[0042] In some embodiments, a fastening plate 3003 is further provided around the periphery of the cover plate 300. The fastening plate 3003 is rotatably connected to the cover plate 300 and can rotate relative to the cover plate 300. A first hook 3003a is provided on the side of the fastening plate 3003 near the first surface 300a, and a second hook 3003b is provided on the side of the fastening plate 3003 near the second surface 300b. As can be seen above, both different sides of the cover plate 300 can cover the opening 200b, so that the first surface 300a or the second surface 300b on the cover plate 300 is exposed. When the first surface 300a... When the first surface 300b is exposed and the cover plate 300 is located within the receiving space 200a, the first hook 3003a engages with the receiving groove 200b and abuts against the receiving protrusion 2002 to lock the cover plate 300 onto the box body 200. When the second surface 300b is located within the receiving space 200a and the first surface 300a is exposed, the second hook 3003b engages with the receiving groove 200b and abuts against the receiving protrusion 2002 to lock the cover plate 300 onto the box body 200.
[0043] The above description is merely an embodiment of this application and does not limit the patent scope of this application. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made using the content of this application's specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this application.
