Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of urine collection technology, and in particular to a 24-hour urine collection device for nephrology. Background Technology

[0002] A 24-hour urine test is a crucial procedure in nephrology. This test typically involves quantifying urine protein and performing 24-hour urine biochemistry within the past 24 hours. It primarily helps determine the nature of nephritis associated with kidney stones. The main biochemistry tests include measuring urine specific gravity, pH, white blood cells, nitrite, proteinuria, glucose, ketones, bilirubin, urobilinogen, and occult blood.

[0003] Because it is necessary to collect the total amount of urine over 24 hours, and the hot summer weather makes it easy for urine to spoil if not properly stored, thus affecting the test results. Hospitals generally have a large number of patients, lack proper refrigeration facilities, and centralized storage can easily lead to confusion as patients handle the urine. Therefore, we propose a 24-hour urine collection device for nephrology departments. Utility Model Content

A latch is provided at the opening of the disposable inner barrel. When the heat-insulating cover is closed, the latch can be engaged into the latch. A handle is fixedly connected to the heat-insulating cover near the latch.

[0010] Preferably, the outer insulated barrel has a drain port A on the side opposite to the insulated handle, and the disposable inner barrel has a drain port B, which can be aligned and locked inside the drain port A.

[0011] Preferably, the inner wall of the heat-insulating handle is provided with a heat-insulating layer D, the heat-insulating handle is configured as a barrel-shaped structure, and a heat-insulating plug is installed at the opening of the heat-insulating handle.

[0012] Preferably, a baffle is provided inside the ice storage chamber near one end of the connecting pipe to prevent ice from blocking one end of the connecting pipe.

[0013] Preferably, the connecting pipe located at the bottom is inclined so that the ice water from the melting ice in the ice storage chamber flows into the insulated outer barrel.

[0014] Implementing the embodiments of this utility model will have the following beneficial effects:

[0015] The aforementioned 24-hour urine collection device for nephrology was used.

[0016] It uses a disposable inner container, which is low in cost, can be discarded after one use, and the disposable inner container can be used alone, which is very convenient;

[0017] The disposable inner container, combined with the insulated outer container, can lower the temperature by slowly melting ice in the hot summer, maintaining a relatively low temperature environment. The patient's 24-hour urine can be stored separately, without the need for centralized storage or confusion, and it is also conducive to the preservation of urine and prevents it from spoiling. The insulated outer container has a simple structure and can be reused.

[0018] Ice cubes are directly filled into the insulated handle, making them easy to fill, and the melted cold water can be further utilized. At the same time, by utilizing the principle of cold air descending and hot air rising, the space between the outer insulated container and the disposable inner container can be continuously and slowly cooled. The ice cubes melt slowly, extending the usage time. Attached Figure Description

[0028] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] Please see Figure 1-4A 24-hour urine collection device for nephrology includes an insulated outer barrel 100, wherein an insulation layer C102 is provided on the inner wall of the insulated outer barrel 100. The upper and lower parts of one side of the insulated outer barrel 100 are respectively connected to an insulated handle 200 through connecting pipes 205. An ice storage chamber 206 is provided inside the insulated handle 200, and the ice storage chamber 206 is connected to the inside of the insulated outer barrel 100 through the connecting pipes 205. The connecting pipes 205 are made of rigid insulation materials, such as ceramics or vacuum insulation panels. It also includes a disposable inner barrel 300, the opening of which is connected to an insulated cover 304 through a plastic connecting piece 303. The disposable inner barrel 300 can be inserted into the insulated outer barrel 100, and there is space between the lower part of the disposable inner barrel 300 and the insulated outer barrel 100. The heat-insulating handle 200 has an insulation layer D201 embedded in its inner wall. The handle 200 is cylindrical in shape, and an insulation plug 202 is installed at its opening. The insulation plug 202 can be made of insulated materials such as asbestos or rubber; alternatively, it can be a threaded cap with an internal insulation sealing gasket. Specifically, the insulation layers C102 and D201 can be made of asbestos, ceramic, polyurethane, or vacuum insulation panels, etc., to provide thermal insulation.

[0031] In implementation, such as Figure 2 As shown, the bottom of the disposable inner container 300 is small and the opening is large. This design is to ensure that the space between the lower part of the disposable inner container 300 and the insulated outer container 100 can be connected to the ice storage chamber 206 through the connecting pipe 205 without affecting the gas flow.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the disposable inner container 300 is made of polyethylene plastic, and the inner wall of the disposable inner container 300 is provided with a scale 302. The scale 302 is located on the inside, and can be seen from the inside after opening the heat preservation cover 304, which is very convenient.

[0033] The heat-insulating cover 304 is made of polyurethane. A latch 306 is provided on one side of the heat-insulating cover 304. A latch 301 is provided at the opening of the disposable inner barrel 300. When the heat-insulating cover 304 is closed, the latch 301 can be latched into the latch 306. A handle 305 is fixedly connected to the heat-insulating cover 304 near the latch 306.

[0034] In other aspects, during implementation, a drainage port A101 is provided on the side of the insulated outer container 100 opposite to the insulated handle 200, and a drainage port B307 is provided on the disposable inner container 300. The drainage port B307 can be aligned and locked inside the drainage port A101. Drainage ports A101 and B307 facilitate the pouring of urine or melted ice water. Drainage ports A101 and B307 may also be omitted.

[0035] It should be noted that a baffle 204 is installed inside the ice storage chamber 206 near one end of the connecting pipe 205. This baffle 204 prevents the ice block 203 from blocking one end of the connecting pipe 205. The lower connecting pipe 205 is inclined, allowing the melted ice water from the ice block 203 in the ice storage chamber 206 to flow into the insulated outer tank 100. The purpose of the baffle 204 is to ensure smooth airflow between the upper and lower connecting pipes 205 within the ice storage chamber 206, preventing blockages that could affect the melting of the ice block 203.

[0036] Obviously, the embodiments described above are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. The accompanying drawings show preferred embodiments of this application, but do not limit the patent scope of this application. This application can be implemented in many different forms; rather, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to provide a more thorough and comprehensive understanding of the disclosure of this application.
