[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but this is not intended to limit the present invention. 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.

[0019] Example 1

[0020] This embodiment describes a convenient oral endotracheal tube fixation device, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it includes a horizontally set fixing tube 1, into which the endotracheal tube is inserted to fix and protect the endotracheal tube, preventing it from falling out or being bitten by the patient;

[0021] The fixed tube 1 is fitted with a freely rotating vertical plate 4 on its outer side. The vertical plate 4 has an elliptical structure and a through hole in the middle of the vertical plate 4 that connects the left and right sides. The fixed tube 1 is horizontally inserted into the through hole. The vertical plate 4 rotates freely around the fixed tube 1. The vertical plate 4 is narrow in height on the upper and lower sides and wide in length on the front and back sides. Under normal use, the vertical plate 4 is in a horizontal state. When oral care is required, the vertical plate 4 is rotated to a vertical state. The patient's upper and lower jaws are lifted by the front and back ends of the vertical plate 4. The upper and lower ends are rotated to a vertical state to expose the oral cavity, allowing the patient's mouth to open, which is convenient for the doctor to insert into the oral cavity for care.

[0022] Dental pads 2 are provided on both the upper and lower sides of the fixed tube 1. The dental pads 2 are fixed on the left side wall of the vertical plate 4. The patient's upper teeth bite the upper dental pad 2 and the lower teeth bite the lower dental pad 2 to prevent the patient from biting the fixed tube 1. The right end of the dental pad 2 is fixed on the left side wall of the vertical plate 4. The two dental pads 2 are fitted on the outer side wall of the fixed tube 1. When the vertical plate 4 rotates, it drives the two dental pads 2 to rotate together.

[0023] Both ends of the right side wall of the vertical plate 4 are vertically fixed with buckles 7. The two buckles 7 are fixed to the front and rear ends of the right side wall of the vertical plate 4 respectively. An elastic band 9 is fixed to one of the buckles 7. A hook 8 is installed on the movable end of the elastic band 9. The hook 8 is suspended on the other buckle 7. One end of the elastic band 9 is fixed to the front buckle 7, and the other end is fixed to the hook 8. Holding the hook 8, the elastic band 9 is wrapped around the patient's head once and then suspended on the other buckle 7. This paragraph as a whole constitutes a fixing component for fixing the fixing tube 1 in the patient's mouth. When the fixing component is used, after the patient bites down on the mouthguard 2, the patient holds the hook 8 and wraps the elastic band 9 around the patient's head once and then suspends it on the other buckle 7, fixing the vertical plate 4 to the front of the patient's mouth. Of course, the fixing component can also use ear loops. Ear loops are installed on both the front and rear sides of the vertical plate 4. When the vertical plate 4 is vertically located in front of the patient's mouth, the two ear loops are suspended on the patient's two ears respectively, similar to ear loops in the mouth.

[0024] In this embodiment, the endotracheal tube is passed through the fixing tube 1 and fixed inside the fixing tube 1. The fixing tube 1 protects the endotracheal tube and prevents the patient from biting it and damaging it. The patient bites down on the upper bite pad 2 with their upper teeth and the lower bite pad 2 with their lower teeth. The vertical plate 4 is located on the outside of the patient's mouth. The fixing tube 1 is fixed inside the patient's mouth by the fixing component. When oral care is needed, the patient loosens the two bite pads 2 and rotates the vertical plate 4 90 degrees to a vertical position. The patient bites down on the front and back sides of the vertical plate 4 with their upper and lower teeth respectively. The front and back ends of the long radius of the vertical plate 4 open the patient's mouth, while the upper and lower ends of the short radius of the vertical plate 4 reduce obstruction of the oral cavity, exposing the patient's oral cavity and facilitating oral care by the doctor.

[0025] Example 2

[0026] This embodiment further illustrates the technology, such as Figure 1 As shown, the vertical plate 4 has through slots on both the upper and lower sides that are open to the left and right. Each through slot contains an absorbent cotton 3. There are two through slots, one on the upper and one on the lower side of the vertical plate 4. Each through slot contains an absorbent cotton 3. The left end of the absorbent cotton 3 is placed into the patient's mouth. The absorbent cotton 3 is used to absorb excess saliva in the patient's mouth and prevent saliva from flowing out of the patient's mouth and contaminating the patient's clothes. The absorbent cotton 3 is a prior art material. The absorbent cotton 3 is made of wood pulp fiber or absorbent fiber. It has strong water absorption, is soft and comfortable, and will not irritate the mouth. These two types of absorbent cotton commonly used in sanitary napkins have good water absorption and shrinkage properties.

[0027] In this embodiment, through slots that communicate with each other can be opened on the front and back sides of the vertical plate 4. Multiple through slots can be used to install multiple absorbent cotton 3, which can improve the absorption effect of saliva and further prevent saliva from flowing out of the mouth.

[0028] Example 3

[0029] This embodiment further illustrates the technology, such as Figure 2 As shown, pads 6 are vertically fixed on the front and rear side walls of the vertical plate 4. When performing oral care, the vertical plate 4 is rotated to a vertical position, and the patient's upper and lower teeth bite down on the two pads 6. The pads 6 separate the patient's teeth from the sides of the vertical plate 4, improving the comfort during use.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the dental pad 2 has a groove. The dental pad 2 is made of soft plastic material. The groove is formed downward from the top of the dental pad 2 along the width direction. The groove fits the patient's teeth, reduces the pressure of the dental pad 2 on the teeth, and improves the comfort during use. The soft plastic material is soft in texture and is specially used to make dental pads, further improving the comfort of the patient during use.

[0031] Example 4

[0032] This embodiment further illustrates the technology, such as Figure 1 As shown, an elastic pad 5 is fixed on the inner wall of the fixing tube 1. The elastic pad 5 has an arc-shaped structure and is fixed on the inner wall of the fixing tube 1. The elastic pad 5 has elasticity. When the endotracheal tube is inserted into the fixing tube 1, the elastic pad 5 is located between the outer wall of the endotracheal tube and the inner wall of the fixing tube 1, which improves the fixing effect of the endotracheal tube and prevents the endotracheal tube from falling out of the fixing tube 1.
