Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of urine sampling technology; more specifically, it relates to a urine sampling device. Background Technology

[0002] Urine sampling is a common medical examination method designed to analyze various components in urine to assess overall health. This sampling can help diagnose a variety of diseases, such as diabetes, urinary tract infections, and kidney disease. The composition of urine reflects the body's metabolic status, thus playing an important role in clinical diagnosis and monitoring treatment effectiveness.

[0003] Currently, existing urine sampling devices, especially when used by female patients, often suffer from problems due to their small inlet and the close proximity of the hand to the urine collector. This makes it difficult for urine to accurately enter the urine cup, and urine may even drip onto the hand, making them unhygienic and inconvenient to use. Furthermore, ordinary urine sampling devices require pouring the urine from the urine cup into a collection tube and then sealing the collection tube. During this process, urine is easily spilled due to hand tremors, and the seal of the collection tube is not very strong, making it easy for urine to spill. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a urine sampling device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides a urine sampling device to solve the problems existing in the background art.

[0005] This utility model provides the following technical solution: a urine sampling device, comprising:

[0006] A urine collection box, wherein a urine outlet tube is connected to the middle of the bottom end of the urine collection box, and a valve is installed on one side of the urine outlet tube;

[0007] The top center of the urine collection box is connected to and fixedly inserted with a first urine inlet tube, and a rubber sealing ring is fixed to the top of the first urine inlet tube. A hollow stud is fixed to the upper surface of the rubber sealing ring, and a second urine inlet tube is threaded on the outer surface of the hollow stud. A funnel is connected to the top of the second urine inlet tube, and a telescopic handle is fixed to one side of the outer wall of the second urine inlet tube.

[0008] The urine collection box has sealing plates slidably installed on both sides of its inner wall, and pull rods are fixed on both sides of the upper surface of the sealing plates. A return spring is slidably sleeved on the outer surface of the bottom end of the pull rod at the urine collection box. A knob is rotatably sleeved on the outer surface of the top end of the pull rod to the top of the urine collection box. A limit block is fixed on one side of the outer wall of the knob. Limit blocks are fixed on both sides of the top of the urine collection box, and a sliding groove is opened on one side of the limit block and a slot is opened on the other side of the limit block.

[0009] Preferably, the length of the second urine inlet tube is greater than the length of the hollow stud, the bottom end of the second urine inlet tube is in close contact with the top surface of the rubber sealing ring, and the interior of the second urine inlet tube is connected to the interior of the funnel, the interior of the first urine inlet tube, and the interior of the urine collection box, so that the bottom end of the second urine inlet tube can smoothly contact the top surface of the rubber sealing ring, and at the same time, the urine can flow through the funnel and finally enter the urine collection box.

[0010] Preferably, the sealing plate has a central disc, and the upper surface of the disc is covered with a rubber sealing sheet. The top surface of the rubber sealing sheet is in close contact with the bottom end of the first urine inlet tube. The central part of the disc is a frustum, and the bottom diameter of the frustum is equal to the inner wall diameter of the first urine inlet tube. The top diameter of the frustum is smaller than the inner wall diameter of the first urine inlet tube. The frustum is slidably inserted into the first urine inlet tube, so that the bottom end of the first urine inlet tube can be completely sealed by the sealing plate, preventing urine from spilling out of the urine collection box.

[0011] Preferably, the two sides of the sealing plate are square plates, and trapezoidal grooves are opened on both sides of the square plates. Trapezoidal blocks are fixed on both sides of the inner wall of the urine collection box, and the trapezoidal blocks are adapted to the trapezoidal grooves. The trapezoidal blocks slide inside the trapezoidal grooves, and the two are closely attached without gaps, so that the sealing plate moves more smoothly.

[0012] Preferably, two sets of the pull rod and the return spring are provided, and the two sets of the pull rod and the return spring are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the urine collection box. The pull rod is slidably inserted through the top of the urine collection box. One end of the return spring is fixedly connected to the square plates on both sides of the sealing plate, and the other end of the return spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the top of the urine collection box, so as to facilitate the sealing plate to automatically move back to its original position and seal the bottom of the first urine inlet tube.

[0013] Preferably, the slot is located above one end of the slide groove, the interior of the slot communicates with the interior of the slide groove, the limiting block is configured as an inverted T-shape, and the height of the limiting block is equal to the height of the slide groove. The limiting block slides inside the slide groove, the top of the limiting block is adapted to the slot, and the top of the limiting block is slidably inserted into the interior of the slot, which facilitates fixing the height position of the limiting block.

[0014] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows: This utility model uses a first inlet tube, a second inlet tube, a funnel, a telescopic handle, a rubber sealing ring, and a hollow stud in conjunction. When a female patient urinates, the second inlet tube can be rotated and fitted onto the outer surface of the hollow stud. The funnel allows urine to enter the first inlet tube more accurately, preventing urine from spilling out due to the small opening of the first inlet tube. The telescopic handle allows the patient to reasonably align the funnel with the urethral opening according to their own situation. The device has a good sealing effect, which can ensure cleanliness and hygiene during use to a certain extent and prevent urine from getting on the hands. At the same time, the second inlet tube and the first inlet tube are detachable, which can meet the needs of different patients and make patients feel more at ease when using it.

[0015] The urine collection box, first inlet tube, sealing plate, pull rod, reset spring, knob, limit block, limit block, slide groove, and slot work together. Before use, the limit block can be inserted into the slide groove and slot, so that the sealing plate is far away from the bottom of the first inlet tube, thus facilitating the entry of urine into the urine collection box. There is no need to manually pour the urine into the urine collection box, which simplifies the operation and avoids urine spillage due to hand tremors during pouring. After the limit block is pulled out of the slide groove, the sealing plate can seal the bottom of the first inlet tube, which can prevent urine from spilling in the urine collection box and ensure the overall sealing of the device. The operation is simple and quick, saving patients time and energy. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, the forms of the various structures described in the following embodiments are merely illustrative. The instrument placement rack involved in this utility model is not limited to the structures described in the following embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0022] Example 1

[0023] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment proposes a urine sampling device, including a urine collection box 1, a urine outlet tube 2 connected to the middle of the bottom end of the urine collection box 1, and a valve 3 installed on one side of the urine outlet tube 2.

[0024] When it is necessary to remove the urine sample from the urine collection box 1, the urine inside the urine collection box 1 can be made to flow out through the urine outlet tube 2 by turning the knob of the valve 3. The valve 3 can be matched with an existing switch valve on the market. The specific operation method and working principle will not be explained in detail here.

[0025] The top center of the urine collection box 1 is connected to and fixedly inserted with a first urine inlet tube 4, and a rubber sealing ring 8 is fixed to the top of the first urine inlet tube 4. A hollow stud 9 is fixed to the upper surface of the rubber sealing ring 8, and a second urine inlet tube 5 is threaded on the outer surface of the hollow stud 9. A funnel 6 is connected to the top of the second urine inlet tube 5. A telescopic handle 7 is fixed to one side of the outer wall of the second urine inlet tube 5. The length of the second urine inlet tube 5 is greater than the length of the hollow stud 9. The bottom end of the second urine inlet tube 5 is tightly attached to the top surface of the rubber sealing ring 8. The interior of the second urine inlet tube 5 is connected to the interior of the funnel 6, the interior of the first urine inlet tube 4, and the interior of the urine collection box 1.

[0026] Especially when used by female patients, the second inlet tube 5 can be rotated counterclockwise and fitted onto the outer surface of the hollow stud 9 until the bottom end of the second inlet tube 5 is pressed against the upper surface of the rubber sealing ring 8, causing the rubber sealing ring 8 to be deformed by compression, thereby filling the gap between the second inlet tube 5 and the first inlet tube 4 to prevent urine leakage. Then, hold the telescopic handle 7 and pull the telescopic handle 7 to the appropriate length so that the funnel 6 is aligned with the urethral opening. After the patient urinates, the urine will flow along the funnel 6 through the second inlet tube 5 and the first inlet tube 4 to the inside of the urine collection box 1.

[0027] Example 2

[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, based on the same concept as the above embodiment, this embodiment also proposes: a sealing plate 10 is slidably arranged on both sides of the inner wall of the urine collection box 1, and a pull rod 11 is fixed on both sides of the upper surface of the sealing plate 10. A return spring 12 is slidably sleeved on the outer surface of the bottom end of the pull rod 11 at the urine collection box 1. A knob 13 is rotatably sleeved on the outer surface of the top end of the pull rod 11 to the top of the urine collection box 1. A limit block 14 is fixed on one side of the outer wall of the knob 13, and limit blocks 15 are fixed on both sides of the top of the urine collection box 1. Furthermore, a sliding groove 16 is provided on one side of the limiting block 15, and a slot 17 is provided on the other side of the limiting block 15. The middle of the sealing plate 10 is set as a disc, and the upper surface of the disc is covered with a rubber sealing sheet. The top surface of the rubber sealing sheet is in close contact with the bottom end of the first urine inlet tube 4. The middle of the disc is set as a frustum, and the bottom diameter of the frustum is equal to the inner wall diameter of the first urine inlet tube 4, while the top diameter of the frustum is smaller than the inner wall diameter of the first urine inlet tube 4. The frustum is slidably inserted into the first urine inlet tube 4. Inside, the sealing plate 10 has square plates on both sides, with trapezoidal grooves on both sides. Trapezoidal blocks are fixed to both sides of the inner wall of the urine collection box 1, and these blocks fit into the trapezoidal grooves, sliding within them. The two blocks are tightly fitted together without gaps. Two sets of pull rods 11 and return springs 12 are provided, symmetrically distributed on both sides of the urine collection box 1. The pull rods 11 are slidably inserted through the top of the urine collection box 1, and one end of the return spring 12 is attached to the sealing plate. The square plates on both sides of 10 are fixedly connected, and the other end of the reset spring 12 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the top of the urine collection box 1. The slot 17 is located above one end of the slide 16. The inside of the slot 17 is connected to the inside of the slide 16. The limiting block 14 is set as an inverted T shape, and the height of the limiting block 14 is equal to the height of the slide 16. The limiting block 14 slides inside the slide 16. The top of the limiting block 14 is adapted to the slot 17. The top of the limiting block 14 is slidably inserted into the inside of the slot 17.

[0029] In this embodiment, before the patient urinates, the knob 13 is pressed down, causing the pull rod 11 to move down synchronously. The pull rod 11 drives the sealing plate 10 down, and the return spring 12 is stretched. When the limiting block 14 moves down with the knob 13 to the limiting block 15 and aligns with the slide groove 16, the knob 13 is rotated 90 degrees, causing the limiting block 14 to slide synchronously along the inside of the slide groove 16. When the top of the limiting block 14 is directly below the slot 17, the pressing force on the knob 13 can be released. Under the rebound of the return spring 12, the return spring 12 drives the sealing plate 10 to move up. The sealing plate 10 drives the pull rod 11, the knob 13, and the limiting block 14 to move up synchronously until the top of the limiting block 14 is inserted into the slot 17. The limiting block 14 is then blocked by the limiting block 15 and cannot continue to move up. The position of the knob 13 is fixed, which in turn limits the position of the pull rod 11 and the sealing plate 10. At this time, the upper surface of the sealing plate 10 is far away from the bottom end of the first urine inlet tube 4. After the urine passes through the first urine inlet tube 4, it can flow smoothly into the urine collection box 1. After urination, the knob 13 can be pressed down slightly to disengage the limiting block 14 from the slot 17. Then the knob 13 is rotated in the opposite direction to allow the limiting block 14 to slide out along the inside of the slide groove 16. After that, the knob 13 is released. Under the rebound of the return spring 12, the sealing plate 10, the pull rod 11, the knob 13, and the limiting block 14 move upward at the same time until the upper surface of the sealing plate 10 is tightly attached to the bottom end of the first urine inlet tube 4 again, sealing the bottom end of the first urine inlet tube 4 and preventing the urine in the urine collection box 1 from flowing out from the first urine inlet tube 4.

[0030] Working principle: When using the device, first press down knob 13 to move the sealing plate 10 away from the first inlet tube 4. Female patients can urinate by aligning the funnel 6 with the urethral opening, while male patients can urinate by aligning the urethral opening directly with the hollow stud 9. After the urine enters the urine collection box 1, knob 13 returns to its original position under the return spring 12. The sealing plate 10 then seals the bottom end of the first inlet tube 4, and the urine sample is stored in the urine collection box 1. Finally, valve 3 can be opened to discharge the urine in the urine collection box 1 through the outlet tube 2. This is the complete working principle of this device.

[0031] Finally, the following points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components, or direct connections.
