[0031] As Figure 1 - Figure 8 The embodiment shown.
[0032] The existing cerumen flushing device generally sprays flushing water into the ear canal vertically or manually adjusts the flushing angle when spraying or injecting flushing water into the ear canal, which is troublesome and laborious, and if the angle is not adjusted properly, the flushing water may be sprayed into the ear canal vertically, which may seriously damage the eardrum, etc. Therefore, the present application provides a cerumen flushing device to solve the existing problems.
[0033] The present application provides a cerumen flushing device, which comprises a flushing head 100, a containing hole 200 is formed in the inner wall of the flushing head 100, the outlet of the flushing pipe 400 is directed at a preset angle with respect to the axis of the flushing head 100, the flushing pipe 400 is arranged in the containing hole 200, the outlet of the flushing pipe 400 is located inside the containing hole 200 or flush with the outlet of the containing hole 200, and the other end of the flushing pipe 400 is connected with a balloon 300.
[0034] As shown in Figure 1 The flushing head 100 is a rotary body and has an inner hole, the containing hole 200 is formed in the inner hole wall of the flushing head 100, and the outlet direction of the containing hole 200 does not coincide or parallel with the axial direction of the flushing head 100, but the outlet of the containing hole 200 is at a certain angle with respect to the axial direction of the flushing head 100, which is between 0° and 90°, for example, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°, etc. The angle can be set according to the actual cleaning needs, which is not limited here.
[0035] As shown in Figure 1 It can be understood that the outlet of the flushing pipe 400 is the end directed towards the ear canal, and the outlet of the containing hole 200 is also the end directed towards the ear canal. The flushing pipe 400 penetrates into the containing hole 200 along the path of the containing hole 200 until the water outlet of the flushing pipe 400 is flush with the outlet of the containing hole 200 directed towards the ear canal or the water outlet of the flushing pipe 400 is directly located inside the containing hole 200. Since the outlet of the containing hole 200 is at a certain angle with respect to the axis of the flushing head 100, when the water from the balloon 300 is injected into the ear canal through the flushing pipe 400, the water will be sprayed at a certain angle on the inner wall of the ear canal, so as not to cause damage to the eardrum in the ear canal, thereby ensuring the safety during cleaning.
[0036] It can be understood that in order to prevent the water outlet of the flushing pipe 400 from directly contacting the inner wall of the ear canal and causing damage to the ear canal, the water outlet of the flushing pipe 400 is generally located inside the containing hole 200, and the position of the flushing pipe 400 is limited to flush with the outlet of the containing hole, so that the outlet of the flushing pipe 400 does not protrude from the outlet of the containing hole 200.
[0037] In the embodiment, the accommodating hole 200 is arranged in a spiral shape on the inner wall of the flushing head 100.
[0038] It should be noted that the overall shape of the accommodating hole 200 can be designed as required, as long as the water outlet of the accommodating hole 200 forms a certain angle with the axis of the flushing head 100 or the axis of the ear canal (which can be approximated as a circular hole), which is not specifically limited here.
[0039] In the embodiment, the accommodating hole 200 can also be linear, that is, as long as the outlet end of the accommodating hole 200 forms a certain angle that is not parallel to the axis of the ear canal, that is, the water cannot be vertically flushed into the ear canal, and further, the inner diameter of the accommodating hole 200 is greater than the outer diameter of the flushing pipe 400, and the accommodating hole 200 is located at the lower end of the inner wall of the flushing head 100, at this time, the accommodating hole 200 can be used as a drain, that is, the washed water can be discharged through the gap between the accommodating hole 200 and the flushing pipe 400, of course, when the water flow is too large or the position of the accommodating hole 200 is not set at the lower end of the inner wall of the flushing head 100, the flushing water can also flow out about the lower end of the inner wall of the flushing head 100, and the shape and position of the accommodating hole 200 are not limited here. The balloon 300 includes a balloon body 310, the outer surface of the balloon body 310 is provided with a water outlet rod 320, the inside of the balloon body 310 is limited to form a water cavity 330, and the water outlet rod 320 communicates with the water cavity 330.
[0040] Referring to Figure 2 As shown, the water cavity 330 formed in the balloon body 310 is used to store flushing water, in the embodiment, the flushing water can use physiological saline or other liquids that are convenient for washing cerumen, and the specific type of liquid is not limited here, the balloon body 310 can be deformed, the pressure in the water cavity 330 is increased by pressing the balloon body 310, the water in the water cavity 330 is squeezed out through the water outlet rod 320, and finally sprayed into the inner wall of the ear canal through the flushing pipe 400, when the water cavity 330 is filled with water, the water can be injected into the water cavity 330 through the water outlet rod 320.
[0041] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 As shown, the water outlet rod 320 is a rod, the water outlet rod 320 has a water hole inside, the water hole communicates with the inside and outside of the water cavity 330, and the flushing pipe 400 can be sleeved on the water outlet of the water outlet rod 320, so as to convey the water from the water cavity 330.
[0042] It can be understood that the flushing pipe 400 is made of a material that can be deformed to a certain extent, specifically, the flushing pipe 400 is connected with the water outlet rod 320 in a manner of interference fit, so as to prevent the flushing pipe 400 from being separated from the water outlet rod 320.
[0043] Further, in order to prevent the separation of the flushing pipe 400 and the water outlet rod 320, the tightening force between the flushing pipe 400 and the water outlet rod 320 is increased.
[0044] In the embodiment, the capsule 310 is a spherical shape.
[0045] Specifically, the end surface of the water outlet rod 320 away from the capsule 310 is provided with a fixing structure 340, which includes a ring groove 341 formed on the end surface of the water outlet rod 320 away from the capsule 310, and an elastic ring 342 sleeved on the ring groove 341.
[0046] As shown in Figure 3 When the flushing pipe 400 is connected to the water outlet rod 320, the water inlet end of the flushing pipe 400 is sleeved on the water outlet rod 320, and the ring groove 341 is located inside the water inlet end of the flushing pipe 400. Then, the elastic ring 342 is moved to the position of the ring groove 341 to cover the outer surface of the flushing pipe 400, so that the flushing pipe 400 is further combined with the ring groove 341.
[0047] It can be understood that the elastic ring 342 can be deformed, such as a rubber band.
[0048] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 The cross-sectional area of the flushing head 100 gradually increases or decreases along the axial direction of the flushing head 100, and the flushing head 100 is a conical shape.
[0049] It can be understood that the cross-section of the flushing head 100 gradually decreases as it gradually approaches the ear canal, so that the flushing head 100 can adapt to the size of the ear canal, and thus the flushing head 100 can be deep into the ear canal. Here, the flushing head 100 can be divided into a large end and a small end. The small end is the end deep into the ear canal, and the large end is the end away from the ear canal.
[0050] The end surface of the flushing head 100 is fixedly installed with a hand-held rod 500.
[0051] As shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, in order to facilitate the flushing head 100 to be deeply placed into the ear canal, a hand holding rod 500 is arranged on the flushing head 100, and the flushing head 100 is placed deeply into the ear canal by holding the hand holding rod 500. Specifically, the hand holding rod 500 can be integrally formed with the flushing head 100 in the production process, for example, the two can be integrally injection molded. The cross section of the hand holding rod 500 can be circular, square, oval or other shapes, and the specific shape is not limited here. It can be understood that the hand holding rod 500 is arranged at the end of the flushing head 100 away from the ear canal, that is, at the large end of the flushing head 100.
[0052] The hand holding rod 500 is internally provided with a through hole 510, and the through hole 510 is in communication with the opening of the flushing head 100. The end of the hand holding rod 500 close to the flushing head 100 is provided with a stop block 520.
[0053] Please continue to refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in order to facilitate the flushing water to flow out of the ear canal and be collected, a through hole 510 is arranged in the hand holding rod 500. The end of the through hole 510 away from the flushing head 100 can be connected with a collecting pipe. The flushing water from the ear canal flows into the through hole 510 through the flushing head 100, and then flows into the collecting pipe and is collected. Further, the collecting pipe can be connected with a corresponding water bag for collection.
[0054] In order to prevent the flushing water from flowing out of the through hole 510, a stop block 520 is arranged to block the water, so that the water can smoothly enter the through hole 510. The stop block 520 can be semi-annular or other shapes.
[0055] In another embodiment provided in the present application, the end surface of the flushing head 100 is fixedly provided with an ear hanging piece 600, and the end of the flushing head 100 is also provided with a liquid collecting piece 700. The end of the liquid collecting piece 700 towards the flushing head 100 is provided with a liquid collecting groove 710. In order to free the hands for cerumen flushing, an ear hanging piece 600 can be arranged on the flushing head 100. The flushing head 100 is directly hung on the ear by the ear hanging piece 600. When the ear hanging piece 600 is used to fix the flushing head 100, a collecting container can be placed below the flushing head 100 to collect the flushing water after flushing.
[0056] It can be understood that the liquid collecting piece 700 is arranged at the large end of the flushing head 100, and the flushing water can flow outwards through the inner wall of the flushing head 100 and then be collected through the liquid collecting groove 710 in the liquid collecting piece 700 on the flushing head 100, so as to prevent the flushing water from flowing outwards to the clothes or body of the user, causing a bad experience, and in the embodiment, the liquid collecting piece 700 can be a shell with the liquid collecting groove 710, and can be integrally formed with the flushing head 100.
[0057] The width of the accommodation hole 200 in communication with the inside of the flushing head 100 is L, the inner diameter of the accommodation hole 200 is D1, and the outer diameter of the flushing pipe 400 is D2, and the following is satisfied: L < D2 < D1.
[0058] In the embodiment, in order to prevent the flushing pipe 400 from being separated in the radial direction of the accommodation hole 200, the width of the part where the accommodation hole 200 is connected with the inner hole of the flushing head 100 should be smaller than the outer diameter of the flushing pipe 400, so as to limit the flushing pipe 400 inside the accommodation hole 200, thereby preventing the flushing pipe 400 from being separated in the radial direction of the accommodation hole 200.
[0059] The working process of the utility model is as follows: first, the flushing pipe 400 is deeply inserted into the accommodation hole 200, and the water outlet of the flushing pipe 400 is flush with or partially protrudes from the outlet end of the accommodation hole 200, then the other end of the flushing pipe 400 is installed on the water outlet rod 320, at this time, the flushing pipe 400 is in communication with the water cavity 330, the pressure inside the water cavity 330 is increased by pressing the capsule 310, and under the action of the pressure, the flushing water in the water cavity 330 is sprayed to the inner wall of the ear canal through the channel formed by the water outlet rod 320 and the flushing pipe 400, so as to flush the cerumen on the inner wall of the ear canal.
[0060] Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent replacement to part of the technical features, and any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
