[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) proctology is an important branch of TCM, focusing on the diagnosis and treatment of diseases related to the anus, rectum, and related areas, such as hemorrhoids, anal fissures, anal fistulas, and perianal abscesses. TCM has unique advantages in the treatment of anorectal diseases, combining the holistic view and the principle of syndrome differentiation and treatment. It achieves both symptomatic and root-cause treatment through methods such as oral and external Chinese medicine, acupuncture, massage, and dietary regulation.
[0003] After a patient has undergone anorectal surgery, the dressing area needs to be changed for a period of time. Usually, medical staff will use tweezers to hold a cotton ball soaked in medication, and then insert the tweezers into the patient's anus to apply the medication.
[0004] However, the traditional method of using tweezers to hold the dressing and apply the medicine is problematic because the sharp tips of the tweezers can easily poke the patient's wound during the application process, causing pain, discomfort, and secondary injury. Furthermore, this method of applying medicine with tweezers is time-consuming and laborious, and it is inconvenient to apply the medicine evenly around the anus, thus reducing the efficiency of changing the dressing. Utility Model Content

[0026] Example:
[0027] Reference Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a dressing probe for use in traditional Chinese medicine proctology, including a housing 1 and a medication tube 2 connected to the housing 1. The inlet end of the medication tube 2 is threaded with a sealing cap to seal the medication tube 2 and prevent leakage of medication from the housing 1. An observation window 10, made of transparent glass, is fixedly installed on the surface of the housing 1, and its surface has scale lines to facilitate medical personnel in viewing the storage status of medication within the housing 1. The probe also includes a medication applicator 3, which, when rotated... The component is connected to one end of the housing 1. The application rod 3 consists of two sections: a cylinder and a frustum. The cylindrical section of the application rod 3 has a cavity. The axis of the application rod 3 coincides with the axis of the housing 1. The cylindrical section of the application rod 3 has equidistant application holes 4. The axis of the application holes 4 is perpendicular to the axis of the application rod 3. The piston 5 is installed inside the housing 1. The housing 1 has a drive unit for driving the piston 5 to move along the axis of the housing 1 and driving the application rod 3 to rotate.
[0028] Specifically, during use, the drive unit allows the liquid medication inside the housing 1 to be slowly discharged into the application stick 3 and then discharged through the application hole 4 to be applied to the affected area inside the patient's anus. The rounded two-section design of the application stick 3 not only makes it convenient to apply the medication to the patient's anus but also prevents injury to the patient during the application process, thus helping to reduce the patient's pain and discomfort. Furthermore, the application stick 3 can be driven to rotate, making it convenient for medical staff to evenly apply the liquid medication discharged from the application hole 4 to the patient's affected area. The operation is time-saving and labor-saving, thereby improving the efficiency of dressing changes for patients and further reducing patient suffering.
[0029] The rotating component of the dressing probe includes a rotating sleeve 31 rotatably connected inside the housing 1. One end of the rotating sleeve 31 extends through the outside of the housing 1 and is fixedly connected to the dressing rod 3. The dressing rod 3 and the rotating sleeve 31 are in communication with each other. A sealing ring 32 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the rotating sleeve 31. The sealing ring 32 is in contact with the inner wall of the housing 1. A check valve is fixedly installed inside the rotating sleeve 31.
[0030] Specifically, during use, the rotating sleeve 31 allows the application rod 3 to rotate on the housing 1. The sealing ring 32 improves the sealing performance and prevents leakage of the medicine. The check valve blocks the medicine inside the housing 1. When the medicine is squeezed by the piston 5, the pressure forces the check valve open and flow into the application rod 3, while also preventing the medicine inside the application rod 3 from flowing back into the housing 1.
[0031] The aforementioned drive unit includes a screw 6 rotatably connected to the housing 1, a screw sleeve 61 slidably installed inside the housing 1, one end of the screw sleeve 61 rotatably connected to the piston 5, wherein the screw sleeve 61 is threadedly connected to the screw 6, and a knob 62 is fixedly connected to the end of the screw 6 away from the piston 5. Multiple anti-slip strips 63 are fixedly connected to the knob 62, and the multiple anti-slip strips 63 are arranged in a ring at equal intervals on the circumference of the knob 62. The number of anti-slip strips 63 is 15-20, and the medicine changing probe preferably has 18, which can be used to increase the friction of the surface of the knob 62. The housing 1 is provided with a linkage for driving the medicine applying rod 3 to rotate.
[0032] Specifically, during use, by rotating the knob 62, the screw 6 rotates, and under the action of the thread, the screw sleeve 61 drives the piston 5 to move along the inner wall of the housing 1. This allows the liquid medicine in the housing 1 to be slowly discharged into the application stick 3 and then discharged through the application hole 4 to be applied to the injured area inside the patient's anus. Furthermore, through the linkage mechanism, the application stick 3 can also be driven to rotate, making it convenient for medical staff to evenly apply the liquid medicine discharged from the application hole 4 to the injured area of the patient. This operation is time-saving and labor-saving, thereby improving the efficiency of dressing changes for patients and helping to reduce patient pain.
[0033] The guide rod 9 is fixedly connected inside the housing 1, and the guide block 8 is fixedly connected to the screw sleeve 61. The guide block 8 is laterally slidably connected to the guide rod 9.
[0034] Specifically, the guide rod 9 and guide block 8 can guide the screw sleeve 61 and prevent it from rotating with the screw 6.
[0035] The aforementioned linkage includes a rotating rod 7 rotatably connected to the housing 1. One end of the rotating rod 7 is fixedly connected to the surface of the screw 6 with a meshing gear A71. The other end of the rotating rod 7 is fixedly connected to the surface of the application rod 3 with a meshing gear B72. A protective shell 11 is fixedly connected to the housing 1, and the rotating rod 7, gear A71, and gear B72 are all located inside the protective shell 11.
[0036] Specifically, when the screw 6 rotates, it can also drive the gear A71, the rotating rod 7 and the gear B72 to rotate, thereby driving the medicine-applying rod 3 to rotate together. Furthermore, the protective shell 11 provides shielding and protection for the rotating rod 7, the gear A71 and the gear B72, while also improving the aesthetics of the medicine-applying probe.
[0037] Working principle: This dressing probe, used in traditional Chinese medicine proctology, first adds the medicine into the housing 1 through the medicine addition tube 2. Then, the medicine addition tube 2 is sealed with a sealing cap. Medical staff can then insert the medicine application stick 3 into the patient's anus. Then, the knob 62 is turned, which drives the screw 6 to rotate. Under the action of the thread, the screw sleeve 61 drives the piston 5 to move along the inner wall of the housing 1, which can slowly discharge the medicine in the housing 1 into the medicine application stick 3 and discharge it through the medicine application hole 4 to the injured area inside the patient's anus.
[0038] Furthermore, when the screw 6 rotates, it can also drive the gear A71, the rotating rod 7, and the gear B72 to rotate, and at the same time drive the application rod 3 to rotate, so that the medicine discharged from the application hole 4 can be evenly applied to the patient's injured area in a circular motion.
[0039] This dressing probe, by turning the knob 62, can slowly discharge the liquid medicine in the housing 1 into the application stick 3, and then discharge it through the application hole 4 to apply to the injured area inside the patient's anus. The rounded two-section design of the application stick 3 not only makes it convenient to apply medicine inside the patient's anus, but also prevents the patient from being poked during the application process, thereby helping to reduce the patient's pain and discomfort.
[0040] By rotating the knob 62, the driving force of the knob 62 can be fully utilized to rotate the application stick 3, which makes it convenient for medical staff to evenly apply the medicine discharged from the application hole 4 to the patient's wound site. This operation is time-saving and labor-saving, thereby improving the efficiency of changing dressings for patients and helping to further reduce patient pain.
[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
