[0029] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] This utility model provides, for example Figures 1-9The cleaning and disinfection device shown includes a cleaning chamber 1, a controller 7 on the front surface of the cleaning chamber 1, a partition 17 inside the cleaning chamber 1, a cavity on one side of the partition 17 and a placement cavity 11 on the other side, a cleaning structure inside the cleaning chamber 1, the cleaning structure including an ultrasonic cleaning tank 10 in the cavity, a slide rail 13 in the placement cavity 11, a disinfection tank 12 on the top of the slide rail 13, an isolation cover 20 inside the disinfection tank 12, and a bracket 14 inside the isolation cover 20.

[0031] The bottom of the ultrasonic cleaning tank 10 is equipped with a drain pipe 23, and the bottom of the disinfection tank 12 is equipped with an outlet pipe 24.

[0032] A placement slot 19 is provided on one side of the top of the cleaning chamber 1, and a spray pipe 18 is placed in the placement slot 19. A water inlet hole 21 is provided at the top of one end of the spray pipe 18, and the other end faces the disinfection pool 12.

[0033] The top of the cleaning chamber 1 is provided with a top cover 3. The top cover 3 has a first liquid chamber 29, a second liquid chamber 30 and a third liquid chamber 31. A disinfectant spray nozzle 25 is provided below the first liquid chamber 29, an atomizing spray nozzle 27 is provided below the second liquid chamber 30 and a clean water spray nozzle 26 is provided below the third liquid chamber 31. The clean water spray nozzle 26 is located above the ultrasonic cleaning tank 10. The disinfectant spray nozzle 25 and the atomizing spray nozzle 27 are located above the placement chamber 11. A disinfectant pipe 4 is provided at the top of the first liquid chamber 29, a rinsing pipe 6 is provided at the top of the second liquid chamber 30 and a water inlet pipe 5 is provided at the top of the third liquid chamber 31.

[0034] In this embodiment, specifically, during use, the user pulls the top cover 3 to separate it from the cleaning chamber 1. The disinfectant pipe 4, rinsing pipe 6, and water inlet pipe 5 are flexible structures that can deform, thus not affecting the movement of the top cover 3. Medical instruments, such as scalpels or other small instruments, are placed on the bracket 14, and then the user pulls the bracket 14, which moves the isolation cover 20. The isolation cover 20 is then placed into the ultrasonic cleaning tank 10, where the medical instruments undergo ultrasonic cleaning to remove dirt from their surfaces. The isolation cover 20 is then placed into the ultrasonic cleaning tank 10. The cover 20 is moved and placed into the disinfection pool 12, the top cover 3 is closed, the controller 7 is started, and the pump body 8 at the end of the disinfectant pipe 4 draws the disinfectant into the first liquid chamber 29. Under pressure, the disinfectant in the first liquid chamber 29 is sprayed out from the disinfectant nozzle 25 and sprayed downwards onto the medical device. The medical device is rinsed with the disinfectant. After continuous spraying, the disinfectant accumulates in the disinfection pool 12 with the valve 22 on the outlet pipe 24 at the bottom of the disinfection pool 12 closed, so that the medical device can be soaked and disinfected. After opening the valve 22, the disinfectant is discharged from the outlet pipe 24.

[0035] Start the pump body 8 at the end of the rinsing pipe 6. The pump body 8 draws clean water into the second liquid chamber 30. Under pressure, the clean water in the second liquid chamber 30 is sprayed out from the atomizing nozzle 27. At the same time, the clean water enters the spray pipe 18. Under continuous water pressure, the water sprayed from the end of the spray pipe 18 impacts the disinfection pool 12, causing the disinfection pool 12 to move on top of the slide rail 13. The disinfection pool 12 moves in the placement chamber 11 and moves to below the atomizing nozzle 27. The clean water sprayed from the atomizing nozzle 27 rinses the medical device. After the pump body 8 is turned off, the medical device automatically drains on top of the bracket 14. After a period of time, the user opens the top cover 3 and removes the medical device while wearing sterile gloves. Then, the medical device is moved to the external sterile box for storage.

[0036] like Figures 1-4 As shown, specifically, a pressure block 16 is provided on the top of the spray pipe 18, and a water inlet channel 15 is provided on the top of the pressure block 16. The water inlet channel 15 is connected to the water inlet hole 21. Specifically, after the pressure block 16 is fixed in the placement groove 19, the water inlet channel 15 of the pressure block 16 is aligned with the water inlet hole 21 and is connected to the water inlet hole 21. Water passing through the water inlet channel 15 can directly enter the water inlet hole 21.

[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, the ends of the disinfectant pipe 4, the rinsing pipe 6, and the water inlet pipe 5 are all connected to a pump body 8. In this embodiment, it should be noted that the pump bodies 8 connected to the ends of the disinfectant pipe 4, the rinsing pipe 6, and the water inlet pipe 5 are in an independent working state. A corresponding water tank is connected to the end of the water inlet pipe of the pump body 8. The end of the water inlet pipe of the pump body 8 connected to the disinfectant pipe 4 can be connected to a disinfectant water tank. The end of the water inlet pipe of the pump body 8 connected to the rinsing pipe 6 can be connected to a water tank containing clean water. The end of the water inlet pipe of the pump body 8 connected to the water inlet pipe 5 can be connected to a clean water tank.

[0038] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a waste discharge pipe 9 is provided at the bottom of the cleaning chamber 1, and a base 2 is provided on the outside of the waste discharge pipe 9. The base 2 can support the cleaning chamber 1. Valves 22 are connected to the waste discharge pipe 9, the liquid discharge pipe 23, and the liquid outlet pipe 24. Specifically, the wastewater discharged from the ultrasonic cleaning tank 10 and the disinfection tank 12 accumulates at the bottom of the cleaning chamber 1. When the valve 22 on the waste discharge pipe 9 (not shown in the figure) is opened, the wastewater is discharged through the waste discharge pipe 9. A hose can be connected to the end of the waste discharge pipe 9, and the hose can be connected to the hospital sewer system for safe discharge.

[0039] like Figure 3 and Figure 9As shown, a guide pipe 28 is provided at the bottom of the top cover 3. The top end of the guide pipe 28 is connected to the second liquid chamber 30, and the bottom end of the guide pipe 28 is connected to the water inlet channel 15. Specifically, after the top cover 3 is fastened to the top of the cleaning chamber 1, the bottom end of the guide pipe 28 is directly aligned with the top of the water inlet channel 15 and fits against the water inlet channel 15. Clean water is drawn into the flushing pipe 6 by the pump body 8, then enters the second liquid chamber 30, and is discharged from the guide pipe 28. Water can be directly discharged into the water inlet channel 15 so that clean water can enter the spray pipe 18.

[0040] like Figures 1-7 As shown, the top and bottom of the isolation cover 20 are both rectangular opening structures, and the bracket 14 is suspended inside the isolation cover 20. Specifically, the isolation cover 20 can be pulled upward to detach it from the disinfection pool 12. The isolation cover 20 and the bracket 14 are simultaneously removed from the disinfection pool 12, so that the isolation cover 20 and the bracket 14 can be soaked and cleaned separately. Regular cleaning can keep the bracket 14 clean and prevent the bracket 14 from being contaminated by bacteria.
