Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to an umbilical cord clamping device. Background Technology

[0002] The artificial care a newborn receives immediately after birth is to quickly cut the umbilical cord between the baby and the placenta. The remaining section of the umbilical cord is either tied off manually or clamped with a special clamp. It will only fall off naturally after this conjoined section of the umbilical cord dries up and shrinks.

[0003] Traditional umbilical cord clamping devices are mostly simple clamp structures with a single clamping method, making it difficult to flexibly adjust according to the thickness of the umbilical cord, resulting in poor clamping effect. Moreover, traditional umbilical cord clamping devices have obvious defects in terms of ease of operation. Medical staff often need to spend a lot of time operating them, increasing their workload. Therefore, it is necessary to design an umbilical cord clamping device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an umbilical cord clamping device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an umbilical cord clamping device, comprising a base, a lower clamping piece provided at one end of the base near the bottom, a groove provided at one end of the base, a rotating shaft rotatably connected to the inner side of the groove near the end, an upper clamping piece sleeved on the outer ring of the rotating shaft and rotatably connected to it via a torsion spring, a connecting frame provided at one end of the upper clamping piece, a roller rotatably connected to the connecting frame near the end, and a driving device provided on the inner side of the groove on one side of the roller to facilitate clamping the upper clamping piece and the lower clamping piece.

[0006] Preferably, the driving device includes a spring, a slide rail is provided at the bottom inner side of the groove, an abutment seat adapted to the roller is slidably connected to the top of the slide rail, a pull rod is provided on one side of the abutment seat, one end of the pull rod extends to the outside of the base and is connected to a pull ring, the pull rod is slidably connected to the base, and the inner wall of one side of the base is connected to the abutment seat through the spring sleeved on the outer ring of the pull rod.

[0007] Preferably, the contact surface between the abutment and the roller is sloped.

[0008] Preferably, the slide rail is T-shaped.

[0009] Preferably, both the lower clamping piece and the upper clamping piece have interlocking grooves on their surfaces.

[0010] Preferably, the surfaces of both the lower clip and the upper clip are covered with a layer of soft medical silicone coating.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] 1. This utility model, through the set driving device, can push the roller, thereby causing the upper clamping piece to rotate around the rotating shaft, thus realizing the adaptive clamping or loosening of the upper and lower clamping pieces. Through the set torsion spring, it can provide a restoring force for the upper clamping piece, ensuring that the upper clamping piece remains open when no external force is applied. Thus, through the design, the umbilical cord can be effectively clamped and loosened, and the operation is simple and reliable.

[0013] 2. This utility model, by pulling the pull ring, can drive the pull rod and the abutment seat to slide to one side on the slide rail. At the same time, it can compress the spring. After the roller loses the force of the abutment seat, the torsion spring can provide a restoring force for the upper clamping plate, ensuring that the upper clamping plate remains open when no external force is applied. After the umbilical cord is placed between the upper and lower clamping plates, the pull ring is released. Under the action of the spring's reaction force, the abutment seat can be driven to move in the opposite direction. The abutment seat can push the roller, thereby causing the upper clamping plate to rotate around the pivot, thus achieving the clamping or loosening of the upper and lower clamping plates. Therefore, by design, the clamping and loosening of the umbilical cord can be conveniently achieved, greatly improving the ease of operation. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Example 1

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides an umbilical cord clamping device, including a base 1. A lower clamping piece 2 is provided at one end of the base 1 near the bottom. A groove 3 is provided at one end of the base 1. A rotating shaft 4 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the groove 3 near the end. An upper clamping piece 5 is sleeved on the outer ring of the rotating shaft 4 and is rotatably connected to it through a torsion spring. A connecting frame 7 is provided at one end of the upper clamping piece 5. A roller 8 is rotatably connected to the connecting frame 7 near the end. A driving device is provided on the inner side of the groove 3 on one side of the roller 8 to facilitate clamping of the upper clamping piece 5 and the lower clamping piece 2.

[0023] Specifically, the drive device can push the roller 8, which can make the upper clamp 5 rotate around the shaft 4, thereby realizing the adaptive clamping or loosening of the upper clamp 5 and the lower clamp 2. The torsion spring can provide a restoring force for the upper clamp 5, ensuring that the upper clamp 5 remains open when no external force is applied. Thus, through the above structure, the umbilical cord can be effectively clamped and loosened, and the operation is simple and reliable.

[0024] The driving device includes a spring 13. A slide rail 9 is located at the bottom inner side of the groove 3. A contact seat 10, adapted to the roller 8, is slidably connected to the top of the slide rail 9. A pull rod 11 is located on one side of the contact seat 10. One end of the pull rod 11 extends to the outside of the base 1 and is connected to a pull ring 12. The pull rod 11 is slidably connected to the base 1. The inner wall of one side of the base 1 is connected to the contact seat 10 via a spring 13 sleeved around the outer ring of the pull rod 11. By pulling the pull ring 12, the pull ring 12 can drive the pull rod 11 and the contact seat 10 to slide to one side on the slide rail 9. Simultaneously, the spring 13 can be compressed. After the roller 8 loses the force of the abutment seat 10, the torsion spring can provide a restoring force for the upper clamp 5, ensuring that the upper clamp 5 remains open when no external force is applied. After the umbilical cord is placed between the upper clamp 5 and the lower clamp 2, the pull ring 12 is released. Under the action of the reaction force of the spring 13, the abutment seat 10 can be driven to move in the opposite direction. The abutment seat 10 can push the roller 8, thereby causing the upper clamp 5 to rotate around the rotating shaft 4, thus achieving the clamping of the upper clamp 5 and the lower clamp 2. Thus, by setting up the design, the clamping and loosening of the umbilical cord can be conveniently achieved, greatly improving the ease of operation.

[0025] The contact surface between the contact seat 10 and the roller 8 is sloped. The sloped surface design ensures stable contact between the contact seat 10 and the roller 8, thus ensuring the reliability of the clamping action.

[0026] The slide rail 9 is T-shaped, which restricts the movement direction of the contact seat 10, ensuring that it can only slide along the horizontal direction of the slide rail 9 without deviating or disengaging.

[0027] The lower clamping piece 2 and the upper clamping piece 5 are both provided with a biting groove 6. The biting groove 6 can enhance the clamping effect and prevent the umbilical cord from slipping or falling off during the clamping process.

[0028] Both the lower clip 2 and the upper clip 5 are covered with a soft medical silicone coating. This medical silicone coating protects the umbilical cord, prevents damage during clamping, and enhances the stability and comfort of clamping.

[0029] Working principle: First, by pulling the pull ring 12, the pull ring 12 can drive the pull rod 11 and the abutment seat 10 to slide to one side on the slide rail 9. At the same time, it can compress the spring 13. After the roller 8 loses the force of the abutment seat 10, the torsion spring can provide a restoring force for the upper clamp 5, ensuring that the upper clamp 5 remains open when there is no external force. After the umbilical cord is placed between the upper clamp 5 and the lower clamp 2, the pull ring 12 is released. Under the action of the reaction force of the spring 13, the abutment seat 10 can be driven to move in the opposite direction. The abutment seat 10 can push the roller 8 and make the upper clamp 5 rotate around the rotating shaft 4, thereby achieving the clamping of the upper clamp 5 and the lower clamp 2, which facilitates the clamping and loosening of the umbilical cord, and thus completes the entire operation process.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
