Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of elderly care technology, specifically to a liquid food feeding device for elderly care. Background Technology

[0002] The Department of Gastroenterology includes internal medicine and surgery of the digestive system. It is a clinical department set up in hospitals at all levels to diagnose and treat diseases of the digestive system. The diseases treated include those of the esophagus, stomach, intestines, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, as well as organs such as the peritoneum, mesentery, and omentum. After surgery in the Department of Gastroenterology, patients need to be fed using liquid feeding devices.

[0003] Compared to traditional syringe-type liquid feeding devices, which require caregivers to constantly monitor the elderly and signal to them before stopping the pressure when the elderly do not want to eat, this method is not convenient for flexibly controlling the amount of food fed. Furthermore, manual feeding requires frequent and continuous pressure operations, which not only increases the workload of caregivers but also reduces feeding efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, a liquid food feeding device for elderly care is proposed to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a liquid food feeding device for elderly care, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a liquid food feeding device for elderly care, including a feeding tube, a control component on the feeding tube, and a food delivery component on the feeding tube;

[0007] The control component includes a first rigid tube, one side of which is fixedly connected to a flexible tube, and the other side of which is fixedly connected to a second rigid tube. A gasket is fixedly passed through the outer side of the second rigid tube. A feeding mouth is fixedly connected to the side of the gasket away from the flexible tube. A baffle is installed inside the feeding mouth. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to the baffle. A biting piece is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting rod. A spring is fixedly connected between the biting piece and the feeding mouth. A barrier is fixedly connected between the biting piece and the feeding mouth.

[0008] Preferably, the feeding tube is transparent and has scale lines on the outside. A handle is fixedly connected to the bottom of the feeding tube, and a connecting seat is fixedly connected to the top of the feeding tube. A connecting tube is movably connected inside the connecting seat, and a storage tube is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting tube.

[0009] Through the above technical solutions, the transparent design and scale lines of the feeding tube allow caregivers or users to clearly see the remaining amount of liquid food inside, making it easy to monitor the feeding progress and replenish it in a timely manner. The handle design at the bottom of the feeding tube makes the entire device easier to hold and operate, especially when it is necessary to move or adjust the feeding angle. The handle provides a stable grip point, increasing the convenience and safety of use. With the setting of the connecting seat and connecting tube, the storage tube can be easily connected for storing and replenishing liquid food. This design not only facilitates cleaning and maintenance, but also makes the feeding device more modular, allowing for flexible replacement or upgrading of components as needed.

[0010] Preferably, the inner diameter of the connecting seat is adapted to the outer diameter of the connecting pipe, the inner wall of the connecting seat is provided with a first thread, and the outer wall of the connecting pipe is provided with a second thread that meshes with the first thread.

[0011] Through the above technical solution, the first thread on the inner wall of the connector is matched with the second thread on the outer wall of the connecting pipe, thus achieving a stable and reliable connection. This design not only prevents liquid from leaking at the connection, but also makes the disassembly and replacement between the connector and the connecting pipe simpler and faster.

[0012] Preferably, the first rigid tube is fixedly connected to the feeding tube, the second rigid tube passes through the gasket and extends to the inside of the mouthpiece, and the top of the mouthpiece has a through hole adapted to the movement trajectory of the baffle.

[0013] Through the above technical solution, the first rigid tube is fixedly connected to the feeding tube, and the second rigid tube passes through the gasket and extends to the inside of the mouthpiece, ensuring that the liquid food can be smoothly delivered from the feeding tube to the mouthpiece. At the same time, the through hole opened at the top of the mouthpiece is adapted to the movement trajectory of the baffle, ensuring that the baffle is not obstructed when it moves.

[0014] Preferably, connecting blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the baffle, the connecting rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting blocks, the moving distance of the baffle is equal to the inner diameter of the second rigid tube, and the baffle is made of silicone, which can block saliva and can be held in the mouth for a long time.

[0015] Through the above technical solution, the baffle is connected to the bite plate through the connecting block and connecting rod. This design allows the baffle to move stably and control the outflow of liquid food. At the same time, the moving distance of the baffle is equal to the inner diameter of the second hard tube, ensuring that the liquid food is not excessively obstructed when flowing out, thus ensuring the smoothness of feeding. The baffle is made of silicone, which is both soft and durable, and can be held in the mouth for a long time without causing discomfort. It also effectively prevents saliva from corroding the spring, thus preventing the spring from rusting and affecting its use.

[0016] Preferably, the feeding assembly includes a miniature geared motor, a sealing gasket is fixedly connected inside the feeding cylinder, and a spiral feeding rod is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the miniature geared motor.

[0017] The above technical solution, through the combination of a micro geared motor and a spiral feeding rod, realizes the automatic delivery of liquid food. This design not only reduces the physical burden on caregivers, but also improves the efficiency and accuracy of feeding. At the same time, the use of a micro geared motor also ensures the stability and controllability of the feeding process.

[0018] Preferably, the miniature geared motor is fixedly connected to the side of the feeding tube away from the first rigid tube, and the sealing gasket is tightly fitted to the inner wall of the feeding tube.

[0019] With the above technical solution, the micro geared motor is fixedly connected to the side of the feeding tube away from the first rigid tube, which avoids interference with the feeding process when the motor is running. The sealing gasket is tightly attached to the inner wall of the feeding tube, which effectively prevents liquid food from leaking out of the feeding tube and ensures the cleanliness and safety of feeding.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by this utility model are:

[0021] First, this utility model places the feeding mouthpiece into the elderly person's mouth and keeps the pad in contact with the outside of the lips. When the elderly person closes their mouth, they can bite the feeding pad upwards. The connecting rod pushes the baffle upwards until the second hard tube is exposed, allowing liquid food to be fed into the elderly person's mouth. When the elderly person does not want to eat, they can open their mouth, and the spring force will reset the baffle, blocking the second hard tube and stopping the feeding of liquid food. This achieves the benefit of allowing the elderly person to control the amount of food they eat at will when feeding liquid food.

[0022] Secondly, this utility model uses a micro-reduction motor to drive the spiral feeding rod to rotate slowly, which can slowly feed the liquid food in the feeding tube into the first hard tube, and finally into the mouth of the elderly through the feeding mouth. Compared with traditional manual pressing feeding, it has the advantage of continuous and stable delivery of liquid food. Attached Figure Description
