Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically a body temperature probe that can be used for intracavitary temperature measurement. Background Technology

[0002] In current clinical practice, body temperature is typically monitored using temperature probes. There are generally two common types: one is a surface probe, which measures body temperature on the patient's skin. However, this type of probe is susceptible to external factors and measurement location, making it difficult to accurately and promptly measure temperature changes. The other type is an intracavitary probe, which needs to be inserted into the patient's body to measure temperature in a specific area.

[0003] Existing body temperature probes lack corresponding positioning measures, and during body temperature monitoring, the probes are prone to displacement, affecting the accuracy of the measurement due to being too deep or too shallow.

[0004] Therefore, in view of this, we have studied and improved the existing structure and its shortcomings, and proposed a body temperature probe that can be used for intracavitary temperature measurement. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a body temperature probe that can be used for intracavitary temperature measurement, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a body temperature probe for intracavitary temperature measurement, comprising a tubular portion and a positioning assembly. A temperature-sensing probe is located at the rear end of the tubular portion, and a scale is provided on the surface of the tubular portion. A cable is connected to the front end of the tubular portion. The positioning assembly is located outside the temperature-sensing probe and includes a housing, a return spring, a control lever, a ring frame, a first rotating rod, a swing arm, a rotating shaft, a clamping member, and a second rotating rod. A return spring is located at the notch on the upper right side of the housing, and the other end of the return spring is connected to the control lever. A ring frame is located at the left end of the control lever, and a swing arm is connected to the surface of the ring frame via the first rotating rod. The other end of the swing arm is connected to the clamping member via the rotating shaft, and the other end of the clamping member is threaded through the second rotating rod. A first strap and a second strap are connected to both sides of the housing, and the other end of the first strap has a hook and loop fastener, while the other end of the second strap has a loop fastener.

[0007] Furthermore, the outer shell has a hollow structure, and the first and second straps are symmetrically distributed about the vertical central axis of the outer shell.

[0008] Furthermore, there are two of each of the first and second straps, and the first strap is connected to the hook side of the hook and loop side of the hook and loop fastener.

[0009] Furthermore, the control lever and the ring frame are integrated into one structure, and the control lever is elastically connected to the housing via a return spring.

[0010] Furthermore, the first rotating rod is rotatably connected to the ring frame, and the second rotating rod is rotatably connected to the outer casing.

[0011] Furthermore, five swing arms and five clamping members are provided, and the swing arms are distributed in a ring at equal intervals about the center position of the ring frame.

[0012] This invention provides a body temperature probe that can be used for intracavitary temperature measurement, and has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. In this utility model, after the tubular part passes through the opening in the middle of the outer shell, the operating lever is kept in close contact with one side of the opening in the outer shell by the elastic force of the return spring. The tubular part is clamped and fixed by the closing clamping member to prevent the tubular part from shifting and causing the temperature probe to be inserted too deeply or too shallowly.

[0014] 2. When the temperature probe is inserted into the body of the subject, such as the anus, the first and second straps can be wrapped around to both sides. The first and second straps are connected by the adhesion between the hook and loop sides of the Velcro, thus fixing the temperature probe to the anus and preventing it from coming out of the anus when the patient twists or turns, thus ensuring the accuracy of the temperature probe measurement.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model.

[0021] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a body temperature probe for intracavitary temperature measurement includes a tubular portion 1 and a positioning assembly 5. A temperature sensing probe 2 is located at the rear end of the tubular portion 1, and a scale 3 is provided on the surface of the tubular portion 1. A cable 4 is connected to the front end of the tubular portion 1. The positioning assembly 5 is located outside the temperature sensing probe 2 and includes a housing 501, a return spring 502, a control lever 503, a ring frame 504, a first rotating rod 505, a swing arm 506, a rotating shaft 507, a clamping member 508, and a second rotating rod 509. The return spring 502 is located at a notch on the upper right side of the housing 501, and the other end of the return spring 502 is connected to the control lever 503. A ring frame 504 is provided at the left end, and a swing arm 506 is connected to the surface of the ring frame 504 through a first rotating rod 505. The other end of the swing arm 506 is connected to a clamping member 508 through a rotating shaft 507, and a second rotating rod 509 is provided at the other end of the clamping member 508. The operating lever 503 and the ring frame 504 are integrated, and the operating lever 503 is elastically connected to the outer shell 501 through a return spring 502. The first rotating rod 505 and the ring frame 504 are rotatably connected, and the second rotating rod 509 and the outer shell 501 are rotatably connected. Five swing arms 506 and five clamping members 508 are provided, and the swing arms 506 are distributed in a ring at equal intervals about the center position of the ring frame 504.

[0022] The specific operation is as follows: after the tubular part 1 passes through the opening in the middle of the outer shell 501, the operating lever 503 is kept in close contact with one side of the notch in the outer shell 501 by the elastic force of the return spring 502. The tubular part 1 is clamped and fixed by the closing clamp 508 to prevent the tubular part 1 from shifting, which would cause the temperature probe 2 to be inserted too deeply or too shallowly.

[0023] like Figure 3 As shown, the outer shell 501 is connected to the two sides by a first strap 6 and a second strap 8, and the other end of the first strap 6 is provided with a hook and loop fastener 7, and the other end of the second strap 8 is provided with a hook and loop fastener 9. The outer shell 501 has a hollow structure, and the first strap 6 and the second strap 8 are symmetrically distributed about the vertical central axis of the outer shell 501. There are two of each of the first strap 6 and the second strap 8, and the first strap 6 is connected to the hook and loop fastener 9 by the hook and loop fastener 7.

[0024] The specific operation is as follows: when the temperature probe 2 is inserted into the body of the subject to be tested, such as the anus, the first strap 6 and the second strap 8 can be wrapped around to both sides respectively. The first strap 6 and the second strap 8 are connected by the adhesive between the hook side 7 and the loop side 9 of the Velcro, so as to fix the temperature probe 2 at the anus and prevent the temperature probe 2 from coming out of the anus when the patient twists and turns, thus ensuring the accuracy of the temperature probe 2 measurement.

[0025] In summary, this body temperature probe, which can be used for intracavitary temperature measurement, is first inserted into the patient's body, such as the anus, by inserting the hemispherical temperature probe 2. Since the tubular part 1 is equipped with a scale 3, medical staff can easily control the insertion depth according to the scale 3 and the physical characteristics of the subject, thus avoiding the temperature probe 2 being inserted too deeply or too shallowly.

[0026] After the temperature probe 2 is inserted, turn the control lever 503 clockwise. At this time, the reset spring 502 is deformed by force, and the ring frame 504 rotates clockwise, causing the swing arm 506 to rotate, which makes the clamping member 508 rotate clockwise around the second rotating rod 509. The clamping member 508 unfolds so that the outer shell 501 can be smoothly fitted onto the outside of the tubular part 1, and the back of the outer shell 501 is adjusted to be in close contact with the skin around the patient's anus.

[0027] Next, release the control lever 503. The elastic force of the return spring 502 supports the control lever 503 to keep it in close contact with one side of the notch in the housing 501. At the same time, the ring frame 504 rotates counterclockwise, causing the swing arm 506 to rotate, which in turn causes the clamping member 508 to rotate counterclockwise around the second rotating rod 509. The clamping member 508 clamps and fixes the tubular part 1 to prevent displacement of the tubular part 1, which would cause the temperature probe 2 to be inserted too deeply or too shallowly.

[0028] Then, the first strap 6 and the second strap 8 are wrapped around the patient's buttocks on both sides. The first strap 6 and the second strap 8 are connected by the adhesive between the hook side 7 and the loop side 9 of the Velcro, and the temperature probe 2 is fixed at the anus to prevent the temperature probe 2 from shifting or even coming out of the anus when the patient twists and turns, so as to ensure the accuracy of the temperature probe 2 measurement.

[0029] The embodiments of this utility model are given for illustrative and descriptive purposes only, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the utility model to the forms disclosed. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The embodiments were chosen and described in order to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of this utility model, and to enable those skilled in the art to understand this utility model and design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for a particular purpose.
