Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of surgical instrument cleaning, and in particular to an auxiliary cleaning rack for surgical instruments. Background Technology
[0002] Surgical forceps and scissors are essential tools in medical devices, commonly used during surgery to clamp, fix, and cut tissues. Because surgical forceps come into contact with wounds and bodily fluids during surgery, they must be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected after each use to ensure safety and hygiene for future applications.
[0003] Currently, the cleaning and sterilization process for surgical forceps and scissors typically involves using a U-shaped frame to support and connect surgical instruments, allowing them to open for subsequent cleaning and sterilization. However, the opening spacing of existing U-shaped frames is fixed, preventing larger surgical forceps and scissors from opening effectively. Furthermore, using a U-shaped frame only allows for the opening and cleaning of single instruments of the same size. When dealing with a large number of instruments, this necessitates repeated use of the U-shaped frame, increasing operator fatigue. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the above shortcomings, this utility model proposes a surgical instrument auxiliary cleaning rack. Through the cooperation of multiple first and second vertical rods, it can not only place surgical scissors and forceps in batches for subsequent cleaning, but also use screws to simultaneously adjust the spacing of multiple first and second vertical rods to accommodate surgical scissors and forceps of different specifications, thus improving the applicability of the device.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A surgical instrument cleaning frame includes: a frame body, the frame body having a mounting plate, the mounting plate having a plurality of first vertical rods spaced apart along its length, a second vertical rod being provided between two adjacent first vertical rods, each second vertical rod being connected to a slider, the mounting plate having a guide hole cooperating with the slider, the plurality of sliders being threadedly connected to a screw, the screw being rotatably mounted on the mounting plate, the length direction of the screw being parallel to the axial direction of the guide hole, and when the screw rotates, each second vertical rod moves closer to or away from the corresponding first vertical rod.
[0007] The surgical instrument auxiliary cleaning rack according to the embodiments of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects: During use, the screw is rotated according to the required opening angle of the corresponding size of surgical scissors or forceps, causing each second vertical bar to move closer to or further away from the corresponding first vertical bar. This synchronously adjusts the spacing between multiple first and second vertical bars, facilitating the placement of multiple surgical scissors or forceps on the mounting plate for batch cleaning. Furthermore, it is adaptable to different sizes of surgical scissors or forceps, improving the device's applicability. The use of a screw and slider improves the movement accuracy of the second vertical bars, allowing for better control of the spacing between the second and first vertical bars. Additionally, the use of a slider and guide hole helps limit the slider's rotation during movement, thus enabling the second vertical bar to translate relative to the mounting plate.
[0008] Furthermore, multiple first vertical rods are arranged in multiple rows and columns on the mounting plate, and a second vertical rod is provided on one side of each first vertical rod. Each second vertical rod is connected to a slider, and a mounting rod is detachably connected between two oppositely arranged sliders.
[0009] Furthermore, the sidewall of the slider abuts against the inner wall of the guide hole, the mounting rod and the screw are arranged perpendicular to each other, the slider is provided with a through hole through which the mounting rod can move, and the two ends of the mounting rod are threaded with first nuts, each first nut abutting against the corresponding slider.
[0010] Furthermore, the frame is provided with a base plate parallel to the mounting plate, and two support rods are arranged parallel to each other at the upper end of the base plate, with the upper ends of the support rods connected to the mounting plate.
[0011] Furthermore, the support rod is provided with two second nuts spaced apart along its length, and the mounting plate is clamped between the two second nuts.
[0012] Furthermore, the base plate is provided with four rectangularly distributed casters, and one side of the base plate is provided with a push rod that allows a person to push the frame.
[0013] Furthermore, the first vertical rod and the second vertical rod are fitted with elastic sleeves, which abut against the upper surface of the mounting plate.
[0014] Furthermore, the lower surface of the mounting plate is provided with two mounting seats, the screw is rotatably mounted on the mounting seats, and one end of the screw is provided with a rotating handle, which is located outside the mounting plate.
[0015] Furthermore, the slider is provided with a threaded hole in the vertical direction, and the lower end of the second vertical rod is threaded into the threaded hole.

[0026] See Figures 1 to 3 A surgical instrument cleaning rack includes: a frame body 100, a mounting plate 101, a plurality of first vertical rods 110 spaced apart along the length of the mounting plate 101, a second vertical rod 120 between two adjacent first vertical rods 110, a slider 130 connected to each second vertical rod 120, a guide hole 131 cooperating with the slider 130 on the mounting plate 101, a screw 140 threadedly connected to the plurality of sliders 130, the screw 140 being rotatably mounted on the mounting plate 101, the length direction of the screw 140 being parallel to the axial direction of the guide hole 131, and each second vertical rod 120 moving closer to or away from the corresponding first vertical rod 110 when the screw 140 rotates.
[0027] The surgical instrument auxiliary cleaning rack with the above structure, when in use, rotates the screw 140 according to the required opening angle of the corresponding size of surgical scissors or forceps. This causes each second vertical rod 120 to move closer to or further away from the corresponding first vertical rod 110, thereby synchronously adjusting the distance between multiple first vertical rods 110 and second vertical rods 120. This not only facilitates the placement of multiple surgical scissors or forceps on the mounting plate 101, achieving the effect of batch cleaning of surgical scissors or forceps, but also facilitates the placement of surgical scissors or forceps of different sizes, improving the applicability of the device. The cooperation between the screw 140 and the slider 130 helps improve the movement accuracy of the second vertical rod 120, better controlling the distance between the second vertical rod 120 and the first vertical rod 110. Furthermore, the cooperation between the slider 130 and the guide hole 131 helps limit the rotation of the slider 130 during movement, thereby achieving the translational movement of the second vertical rod 120 relative to the mounting plate 101.
[0028] See Figures 1 to 3Furthermore, multiple first vertical rods 110 are arranged in multiple rows and columns on the mounting plate 101. Each first vertical rod 110 has a corresponding second vertical rod 120 on one side, and each second vertical rod 120 is connected to a slider 130. A mounting rod 150 is detachably connected between two opposing sliders 130, thus forming multiple rows of positions for placing surgical scissors or forceps on the mounting plate 101, thereby increasing the number of surgical scissors or forceps that the frame 100 can clean at one time. It can be understood that there are two rows of first vertical rods 110, with the two rows of first vertical rods 110 correspondingly distributed on both sides of the mounting plate 101. The mounting rod 150 connects two opposing sliders 130, which facilitates the synchronous movement of adjacent rows of sliders 130, thereby driving the multiple second vertical rods 120 located in the multiple rows to move synchronously.
[0029] See Figures 1 to 3 Furthermore, the side wall of the slider 130 abuts against the inner wall of the guide hole 131, the mounting rod 150 and the screw 140 are arranged perpendicularly to each other, the slider 130 is provided with a through hole through which the mounting rod 150 can move, and the two ends of the mounting rod 150 are threaded with a first nut 151, each first nut 151 abuts against the corresponding slider 130. Specifically, during installation, one row of sliders 130 is first installed on the screw 140. Then, one end of each of the multiple mounting rods 150 is installed on the corresponding slider 130. Next, another row of sliders 130 is installed on the corresponding guide hole 131, with the other end of the mounting rod 150 passing through the corresponding slider 130. Finally, the first nut 151 is tightened and abuts against the corresponding slider 130. This simplifies the drive mechanism for moving multiple rows of second vertical rods 120 and also simplifies the installation difficulty of multiple rows of second vertical rods 120. This makes it easier to remove the corresponding row of sliders 130 and replace the corresponding second vertical rods 120 by disassembling the first nut 151.
[0030] See Figures 1 to 3 Furthermore, the frame 100 is provided with a base plate 102 that is parallel to the mounting plate 101. Two support rods 160 are arranged parallel to each other at the upper end of the base plate 102. The upper ends of the support rods 160 are connected to the mounting plate 101, thereby facilitating the installation position of the mounting plate 101.
[0031] See Figures 1 to 3 Furthermore, the support rod 160 is provided with two second nuts 161 spaced apart along its length, and the mounting plate 101 is clamped between the two second nuts 161. By adjusting the height position of the second nuts 161 on the support rod 160, it is beneficial to change the height of the mounting plate 101 to accommodate people of different heights.
[0032] See Figures 1 to 3Furthermore, the base plate 102 is equipped with four rectangularly distributed casters 103, and one side of the base plate 102 is provided with a push rod 104 for manually pushing the frame 100, which facilitates the movement of the frame 100 by pushing the push rod 104, thereby improving the user experience. It is understood that the casters 103 can be existing casters with locking structures, which allows users to lock the rotation of the casters through the locking structure, thus stabilizing the position of the frame 100 after movement.
[0033] See Figures 1 to 3 Furthermore, the first vertical rod 110 and the second vertical rod 120 are fitted with elastic sleeves 121. The elastic sleeves 121 abut against the upper surface of the mounting plate 101, thereby raising the placement position of the surgical scissors or surgical forceps by using the elastic sleeves 121, which helps to avoid the surgical scissors or surgical forceps directly abutting against the mounting plate 101 and affecting the cleaning of their lower surfaces.
[0034] See Figures 1 to 3 Furthermore, the lower surface of the mounting plate 101 is provided with two mounting seats 141. The screw 140 is rotatably mounted on the mounting seat 141. One end of the screw 140 is provided with a rotating handle 142, which is located outside the mounting plate 101, making it convenient for people to rotate the screw 140 by rotating the handle 142. The outer peripheral wall of the screw 140 is provided with a protruding ring portion, and the mounting seat 141 is provided with an annular groove that cooperates with the protruding ring portion. The cooperation between the protruding ring portion and the annular groove helps to restrict the movement of the screw 140 during rotation, thereby making it easier for people to rotate the screw 140.
[0035] Furthermore, the slider 130 is provided with a threaded hole in the vertical direction, and the lower end of the second vertical rod 120 is threaded into the threaded hole, which facilitates the installation of the second vertical rod 120 and also facilitates the disassembly and replacement of the second vertical rod 120.
[0036] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
