Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to detection collection device, especially urine collection device for detection. BACKGROUND

[0002] Urine detection is a common detection means for diagnosing various urinary system diseases, metabolic diseases and certain systemic diseases in clinical medicine, and usually needs to collect urine samples and carry out corresponding laboratory analysis; in clinical practice, urine detection has important significance for early diagnosis of diseases, disease monitoring and treatment effect evaluation, for example, through detecting protein, red blood cells, white blood cells and other components in urine, kidney diseases can be diagnosed; detecting urine sugar level is helpful for diagnosis and treatment monitoring of diabetes.

[0003] The existing urine collection device has defects in structural design, and urine may fall on the operator or contaminate the outer wall of the collection tube during urine transfer, which is inconvenient and unhygienic; since midstream urine samples can more accurately reflect the health status of the urinary system, the initial urine cannot be collected immediately during the collection process, and the front urine needs to be discharged first and then collected, because this part of urine may contain more bacteria or impurities, and then the urine is collected in a sterile container during the process, that is, so-called "midstream urine", but the existing urine collection device cannot control the sampling section of the sampling urine, which makes the sampling work complicated, and also easily causes urine leakage and contamination. SUMMARY

[0004] Therefore, the utility model provides a urine collection device for detection, which is convenient and sanitary and can control the sampling section.

[0005] The utility model provides a urine collection device for detection, which comprises a collection device and a test tube arranged at the center of the bottom of the collection device.

[0006] The collection device comprises a collection cup, a liquid chamber is arranged at the bottom of the collection cup, a plurality of liquid leakage holes are formed in the bottom surface of the collection cup in communication with the liquid chamber, a hollow cone is arranged at the center of the bottom surface of the collection cup and extends upward, a plurality of liquid inlet holes are formed in the lower end of the cone corresponding to the liquid leakage holes, a plurality of baffles are arranged at positions corresponding to the liquid leakage holes and the liquid inlet holes, the baffles are rotatably arranged at the connection between the cone and the liquid chamber through shaft bodies, the baffles penetrate the bottom surface of the cone and the top surface of the liquid chamber, the top outer wall of the baffles is attached to the inner wall of the cone and extends to the liquid leakage holes, and the lower end of the baffle is located in the liquid chamber.

[0007] The center position of the liquid containing chamber is provided with a flow guide opening, and the flow guide opening is provided with the test tube in a clamping manner.

[0008] Further, the plurality of baffles are hollow structures.

[0009] Further, the upper ends of the plurality of baffles are provided with a plurality of holes in a staggered manner corresponding to the plurality of liquid inlet holes.

[0010] Further, the lower ends of the plurality of baffles are provided with at least one hollow ball.

[0011] Further, the inner wall of the lower end of the flow guide opening is provided with a plurality of clamping protrusions extending towards the center position, the upper end of the test tube is provided with a plurality of clamping recesses corresponding to the positions of the plurality of clamping protrusions, the plurality of clamping recesses are concave structures, one end of each clamping recess is provided with an inlet corresponding to the clamping protrusion, and each clamping protrusion is connected to the corresponding clamping recess through the corresponding inlet.

[0012] Further, the top end of the collection cup is provided with at least one handle extending outward.

[0013] Further, the top end of the test tube is further provided with a cover body clamped on the top end of the test tube, and the outer wall of the test tube is further provided with a label.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:

[0015] 1. The combination of the collection device and the test tube solves the problems of the existing urine collection device, such as the defect in the structural design, the possibility of spilling on the operator during the urine transfer process, the pollution of the outer wall of the collection tube, the inconvenience and unhygienic use, the inability to control the sampling section of the sampled urine, the complicated sampling work, and the external leakage and pollution of the urine. When sampling, the urine cannot be collected immediately at the beginning of urination, and the front section of urine needs to be discharged before collection, and then the sampling is taken during the urination process. When sampling, the urine flows into the liquid containing chamber after being buffered by the vertebral body (because the baffle is clamped on the liquid inlet hole, so the urine cannot enter the vertebral body, that is, cannot enter the test tube through the flow guide opening), when the urine in the liquid containing chamber reaches a certain height, the urine contacts the bottom surface of the baffle, at this time, under the action of the buoyancy of the urine, the baffle is turned along the shaft, at this time, the baffle is separated from the liquid inlet hole, the urine enters the test tube through the liquid inlet hole, after the collection is completed, the collection device and the test tube are separated, the cover body is clamped on the test tube, and then it is sent to the inspection place. The present application reduces the steps of sampling work, improves the sampling efficiency, improves the convenience and practicality of the present application, and improves the accuracy of the urine test results.

[0016] 2. By making the baffle hollow, the weight of the upper part of the baffle is reduced, while the buoyancy of the lower part of the baffle is increased. This allows the baffle to be flipped along the axis by the buoyancy, so that the baffle is separated from the liquid inlet and the urine can enter the test tube through the liquid inlet. This improves the practicality of the present invention.

[0017] 3. This utility model, by setting holes at the upper end of the baffle that are staggered with each other corresponding to the liquid inlet holes, allows urine to flow into the test tube more effectively, solving the problem of urine accumulating between the baffle and the inner wall of the cone, which prolongs the sampling time. It can effectively shorten the time for urine to flow into the test tube and shorten the sampling time; thus improving the practicality and convenience of this utility model.

[0018] 4. This utility model further increases the buoyancy of the lower end of the baffle by setting hollow balls at the lower end of the baffle, so that the buoyancy can be better utilized to make the baffle rotate along the axis, making it easier for the baffle to separate from the liquid inlet, shortening the time for the baffle to rotate along the axis, shortening the sampling time, and improving the practicality and convenience of this utility model.

[0019] 5. This utility model utilizes the interlocking protrusions on the lower inner wall of the flow inlet and the interlocking groove on the upper end of the test tube to ensure a more stable connection between the collection device and the test tube. This prevents the test tube from falling during sampling due to increased weight caused by urine flowing into it. After collection, rotating the collection cup disengages the protrusions from the interlocking grooves, separating the collection device and the test tube. This solves the problem of urine contaminating the outer wall of the collection tube during sampling and reduces the risk of sampling failure or sample contamination due to the test tube falling. This improves the practicality and convenience of this utility model.

[0020] 6. The present invention features a handle extending outward from the top of the collection cup, allowing the operator to take samples by squeezing the handle. This effectively reduces the problem of urine splashing and contaminating the hands during the sampling process, improving the practicality and convenience of the present invention, while also enhancing its safety.

[0021] 7. This utility model solves the problem of existing urine collection devices having structural design defects, such as urine spillage on the operator or contamination of the outer wall of the collection tube, by setting a cap at the top of the test tube and a label on the outer wall of the test tube. The cap at the top of the test tube solves the problem of inconvenience and unhygienic use caused by the potential for urine to spill onto the operator or contaminate the outer wall of the collection tube during the transfer process. At the same time, the label on the outer wall of the test tube allows laboratory personnel to check the test information more quickly, reducing the checking time and improving the efficiency of the test. This enhances the practicality and convenience of this utility model. Attached Figure Description

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0030] like Figure 1As shown, this utility model provides a urine collection device for testing, including a collection device and a test tube 1 that is snapped into place at the center of the bottom of the collection device. The collection device and its internal components can be made of any kind of hard plastic material that meets medical standards, such as polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene copolymer (ABS), polyethylene terephthalate (PETG), and polyvinyl chloride (Rigid PVC).

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the collecting device includes a collecting cup 2. At least one handle 14 extends outward from the top of the collecting cup 2. A liquid-filling chamber 3 is located at the bottom of the collecting cup 2. Multiple leakage holes 4 are formed on the bottom surface of the collecting cup 2, which connects to the liquid-filling chamber 3. A hollow cone 5 extends upward from the center of the bottom surface of the collecting cup 2. Multiple inlet holes 6 are formed at the lower end of the cone 5, corresponding to the leakage holes 4. Multiple baffles 7 (only two baffles 7 are shown in the sectional view) are respectively positioned corresponding to the multiple leakage holes 4 and the multiple inlet holes 6. All baffles 7 are hollow structures, and all baffles 7 are connected by an axis. The bodies 8 are rotatably set at the connection between the cone body 5 and the liquid filling chamber 3, and the baffle 7 is set through the bottom surface of the cone body 5 and the top surface of the liquid filling chamber 3. The top outer wall of the baffle 7 is attached to the inner wall of the cone body 5 and extends to the leakage hole 4. The lower end of the baffle 7 is located in the liquid filling chamber 3. The upper ends of the multiple baffles 7 are provided with multiple holes 10 corresponding to multiple liquid inlet holes 6 and staggered with each other. The lower ends of the multiple baffles 7 are provided with at least one hollow ball 11 (shown as one hollow ball 11 in the figure, multiple hollow balls 11 are better for buoyancy). A guide port 9 is opened at the center of the liquid filling chamber 3, and a test tube 1 is engaged in the guide port 9.

[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, multiple engaging protrusions 12 (two are shown in the figure, symmetrically arranged on the lower inner wall of the guide port 9, which can more firmly fix the test tube 1) are provided on the lower inner wall of the guide port 9. Multiple engaging grooves 13 are provided on the upper end of the test tube 1 corresponding to the positions of the multiple engaging protrusions 12. The multiple engaging grooves 13 are all concave structures. One end of each engaging groove 13 is provided with an inlet corresponding to the engaging protrusion 12 (the top surface of each engaging groove 13 is a horizontal T-shaped structure, as shown in the figure, and the cross-section of each engaging groove 13 is also a horizontal T-shaped structure). Each engaging protrusion 12 is connected to the corresponding engaging groove 13 through the corresponding inlet.

[0033] like Figure 3As shown, the top of the test tube 1 is also provided with a cap 15, which is engaged with the top of the test tube 1. The outer wall of the test tube 1 is also provided with a label 16, which can mark various information of the person being tested and other information that needs to be marked.

[0034] The specific working principle is as follows:

[0035] Because midstream urine samples more accurately reflect the health of the urinary system, they cannot be collected immediately at the beginning of urination. The initial stream of urine must be expelled first before collection. During urination, the sampling personnel place the collection device and the test tube (which is locked at the center of the bottom of the device) at the sampling position. At this point, the urine flows into the liquid-filling chamber after being buffered by the cone. Because the baffle covers the inlet, the urine cannot enter the cone body, i.e., it cannot enter the test tube through the guide port. When the urine in the liquid-filling chamber reaches a certain height, the urine level will be flush with the bottom of the baffle. When the baffle (including the hollow sphere) comes into contact with the urine, the baffle will rotate along the axis under the buoyancy of the urine. At this time, the baffle will separate from the inlet hole, and the urine will enter the test tube through the inlet hole. At the same time, because there are multiple holes at the upper end of the baffle, the urine can flow into the test tube better, preventing urine from accumulating between the baffle and the inner wall of the cone, shortening the time for urine to flow into the test tube, and shortening the sampling time. After collection, rotate the collection cup to disengage the locking protrusion from the locking groove, completing the separation of the collection device and the test tube. Then, lock the cover onto the test tube and send it to the testing area.

[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
