[0028] The principles and features of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only for explaining this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0029] Example 1
[0030] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 3, the mouthwash tube of this embodiment includes a main body 1 and a cleaning nozzle 2. The main body 1 has a cavity 11 extending through one end. The other end of the main body 1 has a water outlet hole 12. The cleaning nozzle 2 is a rubber sleeve with one end open and is fitted onto the other end of the main body 1. The surface of the cleaning nozzle 2 is evenly distributed with protruding cleaning nipples 211. The surface of the cleaning nozzle 2 is provided with a rinsing port communicating with the water outlet hole 12. The side wall of the main body 1 is provided with a positioning point 13. One end of the cleaning nozzle 2 is provided with a connecting part 21 that is detachably connected to the positioning point 13.
[0031] In this embodiment, the mouthwash tube is used by fitting the external cleaning nozzle 2 onto one end of the main tube 1 (the two fit tightly together). The nozzle 2 is then connected to the positioning point 13 on the surface of the main tube 1 via the connecting part 21, achieving stable assembly and positioning. During cleaning, the end of the main tube 1 with the cleaning nozzle 2 is inserted into the patient's mouth. A device for injecting cleaning fluid (such as a syringe or other device capable of delivering cleaning fluid) is connected to one end of the main tube 1. During injection, the main tube 1 can be moved back and forth, utilizing the contact between the cleaning nipple 211 on the surface of the cleaning nozzle 2 and the oral tissue, along with the back-and-forth "rubbing," to achieve effective oral cleaning. Furthermore, because the cleaning nozzle 2 is a soft gel component, it will not damage the patient's oral mucosa or tissues, making it particularly safe for patients with oral wounds. Overall, the structure is simple and reasonable, the manufacturing process is simple, the cost is low, the cleaning nozzle is easy to install and not easily detached, making it safer and more reliable to use.
[0032] In this embodiment, the other end of the main tube 1 is spherical, and the other end of the cleaning nozzle 2 is spherical. The spherical or ball-shaped design at the end prevents damage to oral tissues and mucous membranes during the back-and-forth rubbing process inside the mouth, ensuring good safety.
[0033] In a preferred embodiment, the other end sidewall of the main tube 1 is provided with the above-mentioned water outlet 12 on the opposite sidewalls, or the other end sidewall of the main tube 1 is provided with a plurality of the above-mentioned water outlet 12 along the circumferential direction, and the surface of the cleaning head 2 is provided with a rinsing port that corresponds to and communicates with the above-mentioned water outlet 12.
[0034] In the above implementation scheme, by providing a water outlet 12 along the circumference at the other end of the main body 1, or by providing water outlets 12 on opposite sides, water can be discharged from multiple directions, thereby effectively rinsing and cleaning the oral cavity.
[0035] In a preferred embodiment, the positioning point 13 includes a short post 131 vertically disposed on the opposite side walls of the main body 1. The end of the short post 131 is provided with a limiting ball head 132 with a diameter larger than its own. The connecting part 21 includes two rubber strips corresponding one-to-one with the short post 131. The end of the rubber strip is provided with a limiting hole. The rubber strip is pulled to the end close to the short post 131 and is nested outside the corresponding short post 131 through the limiting hole.
[0036] In the above implementation scheme, since the adhesive strip is made of flexible material, under normal conditions, the size of the limiting hole is smaller than the diameter (or width) of the short post 131. Therefore, after the other end of the adhesive strip is pulled and tensioned, the limiting ball head 132 is pushed from one side of the limiting hole through the other side. At the same time, the short post 131 passes through the limiting hole, ensuring that the other end of the adhesive strip is well limited by the short post 131. This allows the cleaning head 2 to be more securely assembled at the other end of the main tube 1 and will not come off. At the same time, when in use, the short post 131 is located at the section of the main tube 1 corresponding to the outside of the oral cavity. The cooperation between the adhesive strip and the short post 131 can always be noticed by medical staff, which can play a role in preventing detachment as much as possible, and greatly improves safety.
[0037] In this embodiment, the cleaning nozzle 2 is a silicone component, specifically made of medical-grade silicone. It is safe, hygienic, and provides good patient comfort.
[0038] As a preferred implementation method, such as Figure 3 As shown, the main body 1 is provided with a negative pressure flow channel 14, and the other end of the main body 1 is provided with a negative pressure port. One end of the negative pressure flow channel 14 is connected and communicates with the negative pressure port. The other end of the negative pressure flow channel 14 extends to one end close to the main body 1 and penetrates one end sidewall of the main body 1. The other end of the cleaning nozzle 2 is provided with a waste liquid hole 22 corresponding to the negative pressure port.
[0039] In the above implementation scheme, after rinsing and cleaning the patient's oral cavity, a negative pressure pipeline can be connected to the other end of the negative pressure channel 14 to utilize the cleaning pepper. Figure 2 The waste liquid hole 22 at the other end is connected to the negative pressure flow channel 14 to suck out the waste liquid in the patient's mouth, making the cleaning more thorough.
[0040] In this embodiment, the outer surface of the other side wall of the main tube 1 is provided with an annular groove extending to that end, and the cleaning head 2 is fitted into the annular groove. The design of the annular groove can limit the assembly position of the cleaning head 2, so that one end of the cleaning head 2 abuts against the step at one end of the annular groove. At the same time, it also prevents the cleaning head 2 from protruding too much from the outer side of one end of the main tube 1, which is more convenient for use.
[0041] In this embodiment, the surface of the main tube 1 is provided with length markings along its length. These length markings allow for easy observation of the depth to which the main tube 1 enters the patient's oral cavity, preventing excessive entry and discomfort.
[0042] As a preferred implementation method, such as Figure 4As shown, the other end surface of the main body 1 is provided with a plurality of limiting protrusions 15 along its axial direction. The limiting protrusions 15 are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the main body 1. The inner wall of the cleaning head 2 is provided with strip grooves corresponding to the limiting protrusions 15. The strip grooves are nested outside the corresponding limiting protrusions 15.
[0043] In the above implementation scheme, the engagement of the limiting protrusion 15 with the inner wall groove of the cleaning head 2 limits the cleaning head 2 in the circumferential direction. Combined with the assembly of the positioning point 13 and the connecting part 21, the cleaning head 2 is not easy to rotate or shift in the circumferential direction, nor will it shift or detach in the length direction of the pipe, ensuring that the water outlet 12 and the rinsing port are always aligned. Furthermore, the fact that the cleaning head 2 does not shift will result in a better cleaning effect.

[0046] In this embodiment, the oral irrigator 4 can be an existing syringe, and the mouthwash 5 can be an existing technology product (such as the product with patent number ZL202320703469.6). There are two oral irrigators 4, several thin film gloves 6, three mouthwash tubes, and multiple cotton swabs 7.
[0047] The design of the entire nursing kit avoids the trouble and financial loss of patients repeatedly making blind purchases, greatly improves the safety and effectiveness of mouthwash, enhances patient comfort and satisfaction, improves the operability of self-care and the standardization of clinical operations, and can be operated by caregivers at different levels.
