Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to an auxiliary urination device. Background Technology

[0002] Medical devices refer to instruments, equipment, appliances, in vitro diagnostic reagents and calibrators, materials and other similar or related items that are used directly or indirectly on the human body. In the process of urological nursing, some patients may be unable to get up to urinate or have difficulty walking after surgery, so they often need to use special tools to help them complete toileting.

[0003] Patent CN219941065U discloses an auxiliary urination care device, specifically relating to the field of medical device technology, including: a collection box, one end of which is connected to a urinary catheter, and a urinary funnel is provided at one end of the urinary catheter relative to the collection box; a wire harness mechanism, which includes a fixing plate installed on the top of the collection box, with fixing seats provided at both ends of the top side of the fixing plate, and two limiting rods symmetrically connected between the two fixing seats on the top side of the fixing plate, and a spring fixed to the inner side of the fixing seat.

[0004] The aforementioned patents still have the following technical defects: when collecting urine, it is necessary to ensure that the urinal is close to the urination port. During urination, urine will inevitably splash onto various parts of the inner surface of the urinal. Furthermore, the urinal is prone to contamination after multiple uses. In particular, during the next urination, the male patient's genitals are likely to come into contact with the inner wall of the urinal, which can easily lead to infection. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the problems existing in the background technology by proposing an auxiliary urination device.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is an auxiliary urination device, which includes a urine storage tank, a urine collection funnel, a holding tube, a hose, a sealing mechanism, and multiple isolation membranes.

[0007] The urine collection bucket has a detachable lid at the top; multiple isolation membranes are stacked and fitted onto the urine collection funnel, with elastic bands installed on the edges of the isolation membranes; the holding tube is connected to the bottom of the urine collection funnel and is connected to the urine collection bucket via a flexible tube; a sealing mechanism is installed on the holding tube, and the sealing mechanism includes a sealing plate, a limiting ring, and an elastic connecting assembly. The limiting ring is fixed to the inner wall of the holding tube, the sealing plate is located above the limiting ring, and the sealing plate and the limiting ring are elastically connected by the elastic connecting assembly; a pushing assembly for driving the sealing plate to separate from the limiting ring is installed on the holding tube.

[0008] Preferably, the lower part of the isolation membrane 5 is placed inside the urine collection funnel 2, and the upper edge of the isolation membrane 5 is wrapped around the outer periphery of the urine collection funnel 2; an easy-tear film 51 is connected to the outer edge of the isolation membrane 5.

[0009] Preferably, the urine storage container is provided with transparent glass, and the transparent glass is provided with scale strips.

[0010] Preferably, an open ring is connected to the upper end of the outer wall of the urine storage bucket.

[0011] Preferably, a urine drain pipe is installed at the bottom of the urine storage tank, and a valve is installed on the urine drain pipe.

[0012] Preferably, the elastic connection assembly includes a guide rod, a spring, and a hemisphere. The guide rod moves through the limiting ring and its upper and lower ends are connected to the sealing plate and the hemisphere, respectively. The spring is sleeved on the guide rod.

[0013] Preferably, the pushing assembly includes a wedge block, a movable rod, and a push plate. The movable rod moves through the side wall of the gripping tube, and its inner and outer ends are connected to the wedge block and the push plate, respectively.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0015] 1. By setting up a multi-layered isolation membrane over the urine collection funnel, the patient can easily peel off and discard the contaminated upper isolation membrane before the next urination, avoiding contact between the contaminated isolation membrane and the patient's skin, making the urination operation safer and more hygienic.

[0016] 2. The sealing mechanism enables the opening and closing control of the internal channel of the urine funnel, preventing urine backflow and also preventing the odor generated by urine inside the urine storage tank from being emitted into the air in large quantities.

[0022] Example 1

[0023] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the assisted urination device proposed in this embodiment includes a urine storage tank 1, a urine collection funnel 2, a holding tube 4, a flexible tube 6, a sealing mechanism, and multiple isolation membranes 5.

[0024] The upper end of the urine storage bucket 1 is detachably fitted with a bucket lid 3, which can be connected to the urine storage bucket 1 by a threaded connection. Furthermore, a handle 7 is rotatably installed on the bucket lid 3 to facilitate lifting the urine storage bucket 1. A urine discharge pipe 8 is installed at the bottom of the urine storage bucket 1, and a valve 9 is installed on the urine discharge pipe 8. The holding pipe 4 is connected to the bottom end of the urine collection funnel 2, and the holding pipe 4 is connected to the urine storage bucket 1 through a flexible hose 6.

[0025] Multiple isolation membranes 5 are stacked and all are fitted onto the urine collection funnel 2, and rubber bands 13 are installed on the edges of the isolation membranes 5.

[0026] The sealing mechanism is installed on the grip tube 4. The sealing mechanism includes a sealing plate 14, a limiting ring 15, and an elastic connecting assembly. The limiting ring 15 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the grip tube 4, and the sealing plate 14 is positioned above the limiting ring 15. It should be noted that a sealing gasket is provided at the bottom end of the sealing plate 14 to improve the sealing performance between the sealing plate 14 and the limiting ring 15. The sealing plate 14 and the limiting ring 15 are elastically connected via an elastic connecting assembly, which includes a guide rod 161, a spring 162, and a hemispherical ball 163. The guide rod 161 movably passes through… A limiting ring 15 is inserted, and its upper and lower ends are connected to a sealing plate 14 and a hemispherical ball 163, respectively. A spring 162 is sleeved on a guide rod 161. A pushing assembly for driving the sealing plate 14 to separate from the limiting ring 15 is installed on the gripping tube 4. The pushing assembly includes a wedge block 17, a movable rod 18 and a push plate 19. The movable rod 18 moves through the side wall of the gripping tube 4. The cross-section of the movable rod 18 is square. It should be added that a sealing ring for sealing the movable rod 18 can be installed on the gripping tube 4. The inner and outer ends of the movable rod 18 are connected to the wedge block 17 and the push plate 19, respectively.

[0027] An open ring 12 is connected to the upper end of the outer wall of the urine storage tank 1. The open ring 12 is set to limit the holding tube 4 so as to facilitate the placement of the holding tube 4. After urination, the tubing 6 is passed through the opening on the open ring 12, and the holding tube 4 is placed above the open ring 12. Then the holding tube 4 is inserted into the inside of the open ring 12.

[0028] When urinating, the patient holds the urine collection funnel 2 and the holding tube 4 at the urethral opening. During this process, the patient squeezes the push plate 19, which in turn pushes the wedge block 17 to move. The inclined surface of the wedge block 17 squeezes the hemispherical ball 163 upward, thereby causing the sealing plate 14 to separate from the limiting ring 15. The gap formed between the sealing plate 14 and the limiting ring 15 allows urine to flow. The urine entering the urine collection funnel 2 flows into the urine storage tank 1 through the hose 6. After urination, the sealing plate 14 automatically returns to its original position under the elastic force of the spring 162, thereby closing the internal channel of the urine collection funnel 2, preventing urine backflow, and reducing odor. Before urinating again, the upper isolation membrane 5 is discarded to avoid contact between the contaminated isolation membrane 5 and the skin, making the operation safer and more hygienic.

[0029] Example 2

[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, an auxiliary urination device is proposed. Compared with the first embodiment, in this embodiment, the lower part of the isolation membrane 5 is placed inside the urine collection funnel 2, and the upper edge of the isolation membrane 5 is wrapped around the outer periphery of the urine collection funnel 2. An easy-tear film 51 is connected to the outer edge of the isolation membrane 5. After the patient peels off the easy-tear film 51, the upper isolation membrane 5 can be quickly separated from the urine collection funnel 2.

[0031] Example 3

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the assisted urination device proposed in this embodiment, compared with the first embodiment, has a transparent glass 10 on the urine storage tank 1 and a scale bar 11 on the transparent glass 10. Through the above structure, medical staff and patients can easily observe the real-time liquid level inside the urine storage tank 1.

[0033] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
