Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to a urine collection device for premature infants. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the birth rate of premature infants is gradually increasing. Premature infants have immature organ development. The smaller their gestational age at birth and the lower their birth weight, the more prone they are to other diseases, requiring special care and nurturing.

[0003] Premature infants also urinate frequently, requiring medical staff to help collect the urine to prevent it from dripping onto the bed or into the infant's swaddling clothes. Female infants are most prone to urinary leakage. Currently, medical staff use homemade urine collection devices, which consist of something similar to an eye drop bottle and some medical tape. When using them, medical staff will cut the opening of the urine collection bottle larger, stick one end of the medical tape to the urine collection bottle, and the other end to the female infant's body. However, due to the frequent movement of the infant's limbs, the tape often becomes loose during the urine collection process, causing the urine collection bottle to fall off and leak, making it inconvenient to use normally. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a urine collection device for premature infants, comprising a urine collection bottle with a connecting portion fixed to the top of the bottle, the bottle being made of transparent soft plastic; it also includes a leak-proof cover, on which a flexible tube is fixedly connected, and a connecting cap is fixed to the end of the flexible tube away from the leak-proof cover, the connecting cap being connected to the connecting portion.

[0005] Furthermore, the leak-proof cover is made of soft silicone, and an adhesive portion is provided on the end face of the leak-proof cover.

[0006] Furthermore, the outer wall of the connecting cover is fixed with a plurality of anti-slip protrusions distributed along the circumferential direction.

[0007] Furthermore, the outer wall of the connecting part is provided with a plurality of interconnected insertion ports and positioning grooves, and the insertion ports and positioning grooves are all arc-shaped grooves.

[0008] Furthermore, the inner wall of the connecting cover is fixed with a plurality of connecting blocks that are adapted to the insertion port. The width of the connecting blocks is smaller than the width of the insertion port, and the insertion port can slide rubbingly within the positioning groove.

[0009] Furthermore, the inner wall of the connecting cover is fixed with a sealing part that communicates with the hose, and the sealing part is inserted into the connecting part.

[0010] Furthermore, the outer surface of the connecting cover is provided with a plurality of indicator grooves, which are aligned with the connecting blocks one by one.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] By incorporating a silicone leak-proof cover with an ergonomic design and adhesive sections on its end face, the cover can be more tightly and securely attached to the perineum of the female infant, thus preventing urinary leakage. Furthermore, a flexible tube is installed between the leak-proof cover and the urine collection bottle. This design allows the urine collection bottle to be placed aside, ensuring the leak-proof cover is not affected by the weight of the urine collection bottle. The flexible tube also acts as a cushioning mechanism, reducing the risk of the leak-proof cover falling off due to the infant's movements accidentally touching the urine collection bottle, thereby improving practicality.

[0019] The technical solutions of this application will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0020] like Figures 1-4This embodiment provides a urine collection device for premature infants, including a urine collection bottle 1, with a connecting part 8 fixed to the top of the urine collection bottle 1, and the urine collection bottle 1 is made of transparent soft plastic; it also includes a leak-proof cover 2, with a flexible tube 3 fixedly connected to the leak-proof cover 2, and a connecting cap 5 fixed to the end of the flexible tube 3 away from the leak-proof cover 2, the connecting cap 5 being connected to the connecting part 8, the leak-proof cover 2 being made of soft silicone, with an adhesive part 4 provided on the end face of the leak-proof cover 2, and multiple anti-slip protrusions 7 distributed along the circumferential direction fixed on the outer wall of the connecting cap 5, the outer wall of the connecting part 8 having multiple interconnected insertion ports 9 and positioning grooves 10, both of which are arc-shaped grooves, and multiple connecting blocks 11 adapted to the insertion ports 9 fixed on the inner wall of the connecting cap 5, the width of the connecting block 11 being smaller than the width of the insertion port 9, allowing the insertion port 9 to slide rubbingly within the positioning groove 10.

[0021] When using, place the urine collection bottle 1 on the baby's bed, and then attach the adhesive part 4 to the baby's perineum to collect urine. When the urine collection bottle 1 is full of urine, slowly peel off the adhesive part 4, and then twist the connecting cap 5 counterclockwise. When it can no longer be twisted, lift the connecting cap 5 to remove the urine collection bottle 1 and pour out the urine. After cleaning and disinfecting the urine collection bottle 1, adhesive part 4 and tubing 3, they can be reinstalled for reuse, which improves practicality.

[0022] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the inner wall of the connecting cover 5 is fixed with a sealing part 12 that communicates with the hose 3. The sealing part 12 is inserted into the connecting part 8. This setting helps to improve the sealing performance and reduce the probability of urine leakage.

[0023] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, the outer surface of the connecting cover 5 is provided with multiple indicator slots 6, which are aligned with the connecting blocks 11 one by one. The indicator slots 6 have an indicative function, allowing the user to quickly align and insert the connecting blocks 11 into the insertion port 9 for convenient and quick installation.

[0024] The implementation principle of the urine collection device for premature infants in this application embodiment is as follows: When in use, place the urine collection bottle 1 on the infant's bed, and then attach the adhesive part 4 to the infant's perineum to collect urine. When the urine collection bottle 1 is full of urine, slowly peel off the adhesive part 4, and then twist the connecting cover 5 counterclockwise. When it can no longer be twisted, lift the connecting cover 5 to remove the urine collection bottle 1 and pour out the urine. After the urine collection bottle 1, adhesive part 4 and tubing 3 are cleaned and disinfected, they can be reinstalled for reuse, which improves practicality.
