[0002] The dilator is also called dilator, and is a common instrument for gynecological examination, which is used to dilate the vagina and facilitate transvaginal examination. The common dilators include disposable plastic dilators and reusable stainless steel dilators. The disposable dilators are softer than the reusable dilators and are not as easy to operate as the latter. In the hospital clinical examination department, which type of dilator is used is usually selected according to the operation habit of the doctor.

[0003] After the use of the stainless steel dilator, it needs to be uniformly sent to the hospital disinfection supply center for professional cleaning and disinfection. After cleaning, it is placed in a storage container and then sent back to each examination department. When the doctor uses it, he takes it one by one from the container and manually applies lubricant to the duckbill part of the dilator, which can be used for examination of the patient. After use, it is placed in another container and then sent to the disinfection supply center for disinfection and cleaning. However, the following technical problems exist in the above use process:

[0004] 1. The existing storage container does not have a heating and temperature maintaining function, and the temperature is low when taking out and using, especially in autumn and winter. The surface of the stainless steel dilator is cold, which causes great stimulation to the skin when it is inserted into the body, and also easily causes anxiety and tension in the patient, resulting in poor comfort in use.

[0005] 2. When manually applying lubricant, the lubricant may drop on clothes, table top, floor, etc., causing pollution, and it is also not easy to apply uniformly. INVENTION CONTENTS

[0048] Example 2

[0049] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that, as Figure 5 As shown, the lubricating bag 6 has a rectangular structure, with a long, narrow lubricating cavity 60 in the middle. The opening of the lubricating cavity 60 communicates with the opening of the lubricating bag 6. Lubricant is placed inside the lubricating cavity 60, and the speculum's spout is used to extend into the lubricating cavity 60. Specifically, as shown... Figure 6 As shown, the inner wall of the opening of the lubricating bag 6 is provided with two sets of sealing grooves 601. Between the two sets of sealing grooves 601, there is a tearing part 61 for engaging with the groove of the sealing groove 601. A tearing strip 661 is also provided on one side of the tearing part 61, and the tearing strip 661 extends out of the opening of the lubricating bag 6.

[0050] In this embodiment, by placing the tear strip 661 outside the bag opening, it is easy to pinch the tear strip 661 to quickly open the bag opening during use; by setting the lubrication cavity 60 as a long strip, when the duckbill part of the vaginal speculum extends into the lubrication cavity 60, it can come into contact with the lubricant. Compared with a larger application space, the lubricant is easier to concentrate in a small space, thus making it easier to apply quickly and evenly.

[0051] More preferably, in this embodiment, a protective film (not shown in the figure) is also provided at the opening of the lubrication cavity 60; the protective film can further ensure that the lubricant is not contaminated. For example, when the tear strip 661 is accidentally torn, the protective film can also protect the lubricant; when in use, the duckbill part of the vaginal speculum is aligned with the protective film and force is applied downward to puncture the protective film and achieve the lubrication effect on the vaginal speculum.
