Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical supplies technology, and in particular to a sputum collection device for respiratory medicine. Background Technology

[0002] Patients in the respiratory ward produce a lot of sputum in their airways and need to cough it up frequently, usually into a sputum cup. Because the sputum cup is open, germs in the sputum can escape into the air, and the high temperature accelerates this escape. If the sputum contains pathogenic bacteria, it can affect the health of those around them.

[0003] In addition, medical staff need to directly clean the sputum collection device. Since the sputum adheres to the cylinder wall, it is difficult to clean, which increases the workload. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a sputum collection device for respiratory medicine to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, in order to solve the problems existing in the technical background, this utility model proposes a sputum collection device for respiratory medicine, the specific technical solution of which is as follows:

[0005] A sputum collection device for respiratory medicine includes a cylinder body, which comprises an inner cylinder and an outer cylinder. The inner cylinder is located inside the outer cylinder. A cylinder cover is provided on the top of the outer cylinder. The top of the cylinder cover has an opening, and a disposable plastic funnel is embedded in the opening. One end of the plastic funnel has a funnel cover. An adjustment mechanism is connected to the outside of the outer cylinder. The cylinder body is connected to a hospital bed through the adjustment mechanism.

[0006] Furthermore, the adjustment mechanism includes a support rod, a slider, a connecting rod, a fixing bolt, and a connecting lug. The slider is sleeved on the support rod and slides up and down on the support rod. The slider is connected to the cylinder through the connecting rod. By sliding up and down the slider, in conjunction with the connecting rod and the rotation of the cylinder, the tilt of the cylinder is adjusted.

[0007] Furthermore, a positioning protrusion with a triangular cross-section is provided at the edge of the opening of the cylinder cover. When the disposable plastic funnel is placed at the opening, it limits the disposable plastic funnel and prevents it from shifting.

[0008] Furthermore, there is a 5-10mm gap between the outer wall of the inner cylinder and the inner wall of the outer cylinder, and a disposable plastic bag is placed inside the inner cylinder to collect sputum.

[0009] Furthermore, the support rod is provided with connecting ears at both the upper and lower ends, and a connecting rope passes through the connecting ears, so that the cylinder and the adjustment mechanism can be placed next to the hospital bed through the connecting rope.

[0010] Furthermore, the outer cylinder has an opening at the top, the diameter of which is the same as the diameter of the outer cylinder body, and the lower edge of the cylinder cover is embedded in a notch in the opening on the inner wall of the top of the outer cylinder.

[0011] Furthermore, the slider is equipped with fixing bolts. By loosening the fixing bolts, the slider can be moved up and down manually to rotate the cylinder and adjust the angle. After adjusting to the appropriate position, the fixing bolts are tightened to prevent the slider from moving.

[0012] The above technical solution has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] This invention features a disposable plastic funnel and funnel cap for easy sputum intake. Patients can easily spit sputum into the funnel, and flipping the funnel cap closes the funnel, reducing contact between the sputum and outside air. The sputum inside the funnel flows downwards into an inner cylinder lined with a plastic bag. Medical staff can periodically open the cap and remove and replace the plastic bag, preventing direct contact with the sputum and effectively reducing the risk of infection. The angle of the cylinder and the funnel can be adjusted to meet the needs of different users. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] See Figures 1-2 As shown, a respiratory sputum collection device includes a cylindrical body.

[0019] The cylinder includes an inner cylinder 1 and an outer cylinder 2. The inner cylinder 1 is located inside the outer cylinder 2. A cylinder cover 3 is provided on the top of the outer cylinder 2. The top of the cylinder cover 3 is open, and a disposable plastic funnel 4 is embedded in the opening. A funnel cover 7 is provided at one end of the plastic funnel. An adjustment mechanism is connected to the outside of the outer cylinder 2. The cylinder is connected to the hospital bed through the adjustment mechanism.

[0020] In this embodiment, when replacing the plastic bag inside the inner cylinder 1, the disposable plastic funnel 4 is replaced together with it.

[0021] The adjustment mechanism includes a support rod 6, a slider 8, a connecting rod 9, a fixing bolt 10, and a connecting lug 11. The slider 8 is sleeved on the support rod 6 and slides up and down on the support rod 6. The slider 8 is connected to the cylinder through the connecting rod 9. By sliding up and down the slider 8, in conjunction with the connecting rod 9 and the rotation of the cylinder, the tilt of the cylinder is adjusted. The edge of the opening of the cylinder cover 3 is provided with a positioning protrusion 5 with a triangular cross-section. When the disposable plastic funnel 4 is placed at the opening, it limits the disposable plastic funnel 4 and prevents it from shifting. There is a 5-10mm gap between the outer wall of the inner cylinder 1 and the inner wall of the outer cylinder 2. The inner cylinder 1 is lined with a disposable plastic bag for collecting sputum. The upper and lower ends of the support rod 6 are provided with connecting lugs 11. A connecting rope passes through the connecting lugs 11 and the cylinder and the adjustment mechanism are placed next to the bed through the connecting rope.

[0022] See Figure 2 As shown, the outer cylinder 2 has an opening at the top, the diameter of which is the same as the diameter of the outer cylinder 2. The lower edge of the cylinder cover 3 is embedded in the notch of the opening on the inner wall of the top of the outer cylinder 2. The slider 8 is provided with a fixing bolt 10. Loosen the fixing bolt 10 and manually move the slider 8 up and down to rotate the cylinder and adjust the angle. When it is adjusted to a suitable position, tighten the fixing bolt 10 to prevent the slider 8 from moving.

[0023] In this embodiment, the length of the support rod 6 is 15-20 cm, and the adjustment angle of the cylinder is 10-40 degrees.

[0024] Because this invention connects the cylinder to the bedside, it is fixed and stable, which not only saves space in the ward but also prevents the sputum collection device from tipping over when placed on the floor or table, thus improving the stability of the vomit collection device.

[0025] In practical use, this invention is attached to the edge of the bed. The patient rotates to open the funnel cover 7, spitting sputum into the disposable plastic funnel 4. Flipping the funnel cover 7 closes the funnel 4, and the sputum flows downwards into the inner cylinder 1 due to gravity. The inner cylinder 1 is lined with a plastic bag. Medical staff can periodically open the cover 3 to remove and replace the plastic bag in the inner cylinder 1, preventing direct contact with the sputum and effectively reducing the risk of infection. The angles of the cylinder and the disposable plastic funnel 4 can be adjusted according to the patient's needs. In this embodiment, the outer cylinder 2 is cylindrical with a diameter of 15-28 cm.
