Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pressure protection technology, specifically a pressure protection device for a home-use colonic hydrotherapy device. Background Technology

[0002] Home colon cleansing devices utilize a purely physical, natural therapy approach. Water is injected into the large intestine, activating intestinal peristalsis, softening hardened stool, and lubricating the intestinal walls. The body then naturally expels any remaining feces, waste, toxins, and parasites. These home-use health devices primarily target constipation, anorectal diseases, and intestinal cleansing. They can thoroughly cleanse the entire large intestine in sections, improving intestinal motility and nutrient absorption, and reducing the accumulation of toxins that can lead to multi-system complications. Classified as a Class II medical device, these devices are popular for modern home use.

[0003] Currently, most home colonic hydrotherapy devices on the market rely on controlling the infusion rate of the pump to regulate the outlet pressure. These devices typically have multiple flow rates, allowing users to select the appropriate setting to achieve fixed outlet pressure control. A few devices employ different technologies, using an air pump connected to a sealed tank to control the flow of the treatment fluid. However, these devices lack pressure detection and protection functions. If the pressurizing equipment malfunctions, excessive pressure may cause discomfort or even harm to the patient. Therefore, we need to propose a pressure protection device for home colonic hydrotherapy devices. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pressure protection device for a home-use colonic hydrotherapy device. Pressure protection is achieved through a pressure sensor and a solenoid valve. When the hydrotherapy device is turned on, the pressure sensor collects the pressure data inside the four-way valve, and then the solenoid valve is controlled by the control system. A one-way valve is set between the liquid tank and the solenoid valve. When the pressure inside the four-way valve is too high, the solenoid valve opens the water path, and the treatment fluid inside the four-way valve flows back into the liquid tank through the one-way valve, thereby relieving pressure on the water outlet pipe and solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a pressure protection device for a home-use intestinal hydrotherapy device, comprising a mounting plate, a liquid tank disposed on the upper surface of the mounting plate, and a water outlet pipe;

[0006] The liquid tank is equipped with a protection component on its side for protecting the water pressure at the outlet pipe. The protection component includes:

[0007] A liquid pump is mounted on the upper surface of the mounting plate;

[0008] A filter module is installed between the liquid tank and the liquid pump to filter out impurities inside the liquid.

[0009] A four-way valve is sealed at the outlet of the liquid pump.

[0010] Pressure sensors, solenoid valves, and check valves are sealed on both sides of the four-way valve.

[0011] Preferably, one side of the four-way valve is sealed to the solenoid valve, the side of the solenoid valve away from the four-way valve is sealed to the check valve, the side of the liquid tank is sealed to the first water inlet pipe, and the check valve is sealed to the first water inlet pipe.

[0012] Preferably, the filter module includes a second water inlet pipe, a connecting pipe, a filter pipe, a filter element, and an installation structure. The second water inlet pipe is sealed to one side of the liquid tank, the filter pipe is sealed between the second water inlet pipe and the connecting pipe, the filter element is disposed inside the filter pipe, and the end of the connecting pipe away from the filter pipe is sealed to the water inlet of the liquid pump.

[0013] Preferably, the installation structure includes a connecting sleeve and a connecting groove. The connecting sleeve is fixedly disposed at the end of the filter element away from the connecting tube. The outer arc surface of the connecting sleeve is provided with a threaded groove. The connecting groove is disposed inside the filter tube, and the connecting groove is provided with a thread corresponding to the threaded groove.

[0014] Preferably, a first connector is provided on the side of the connecting pipe near the liquid tank, and the filter pipe is sealed to the first connector through a second connector, and the filter pipe and the second connector are provided with mounting grooves corresponding to the filter element inside.

[0015] Preferably, the outlet pipe is sealed to the end of the four-way valve away from the liquid pump, and the pressure sensor is sealed to the end of the four-way valve away from the solenoid valve.

[0016] Preferably, the upper surface of the mounting plate is provided with a control system, and the control system is connected to the liquid pump, pressure sensor and solenoid valve.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] This invention achieves pressure protection through a pressure sensor and a solenoid valve. When the hydrotherapy device is turned on, the pressure sensor collects the pressure data inside the four-way valve, and then controls the solenoid valve through the control system. A one-way valve is set between the liquid tank and the solenoid valve. When the pressure inside the four-way valve is too high, the solenoid valve opens the water path, and the treatment fluid inside the four-way valve flows back into the liquid tank through the one-way valve, thereby relieving pressure on the water outlet pipe. This avoids the possibility of excessive pressure causing discomfort or even harm to the patient, thus improving the safety of using home colon hydrotherapy devices.

[0025] 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.

[0026] This utility model provides: a pressure protection device for a home-use colonic hydrotherapy device, such as... Figure 1-4 As shown, the device includes a mounting plate 1, a liquid tank 2 disposed on the upper surface of the mounting plate 1, and a water outlet pipe 8. The upper surface of the liquid tank 2 is sealed with a liquid inlet 3, which facilitates the filling of the liquid tank 2 with medicine, thereby improving the ease of use of the home colonic hydrotherapy device. The model of the liquid pump 5 mentioned below can be the IWAKI MD series, the pressure sensor 6 can be the Honeywell 26PC series, the solenoid valve 9 can be the ASCO 210 series normally open solenoid valve, the one-way valve 10 can be the Check-All Valve MV series, and the control system 4 can be the Arduino Mega 2560 and corresponding modules.

[0027] Preferably, the side of the liquid tank 2 is provided with a protective component to protect the water pressure of the outlet pipe 8. The protective component includes: a liquid pump 5 disposed on the upper surface of the mounting plate 1; a filter module disposed between the liquid tank 2 and the liquid pump 5 to filter impurities inside the liquid; a four-way valve 7 sealed to the outlet of the liquid pump 5; and a pressure sensor 6, a solenoid valve 9, and a one-way valve 10 sealed on both sides of the four-way valve 7. When the spa equipment is turned on, the liquid inside the liquid tank 2 enters the liquid pump 5 through the filter module, and then drives the medicinal liquid into the four-way valve 7 through the outlet of the liquid pump 5. Under normal conditions, the water path through solenoid valve 9 is closed. At this time, pressure sensor 6 collects the pressure data inside the four-way valve 7, and then the control system 4 controls the opening and closing of solenoid valve 9. A one-way valve 10 is set between the liquid tank 2 and solenoid valve 9. When the pressure inside the four-way valve 7 is too high, solenoid valve 9 opens the water path, and the treatment fluid inside the four-way valve 7 flows back into the liquid tank 2 through the one-way valve 10, thereby relieving pressure on the water outlet pipe 8. This avoids the possibility of excessive pressure causing discomfort or even harm to the patient, thus improving the safety of using the home colonic hydrotherapy device.

[0028] Furthermore, one side of the four-way valve 7 is sealed to the solenoid valve 9, and the side of the solenoid valve 9 away from the four-way valve 7 is sealed to the check valve 10. The side of the liquid tank 2 is sealed to the first water inlet pipe 11, and the check valve 10 is sealed to the first water inlet pipe 11. The check valve 10 is located between the liquid tank 2 and the solenoid valve 9. When the solenoid valve 9 opens the water circuit, if there is no check valve 10, the treatment fluid may enter the four-way valve 7 uncontrollably through the solenoid valve 9 and the check valve 10. As a result, the treatment fluid inside the four-way valve 7 may flow out of the outlet pipe 8 under greater pressure. Thus, the check valve 10 ensures that the treatment fluid can only flow unidirectionally into the liquid tank 2, thereby ensuring the pressure protection for the drainage of the outlet pipe 8.

[0029] Furthermore, the filtration module includes a second water inlet pipe 12, a connecting pipe 13, a filter pipe 14, a filter element 15, and an installation structure. The second water inlet pipe 12 is sealed to one side of the liquid tank 2. The filter pipe 14 is sealed between the second water inlet pipe 12 and the connecting pipe 13. The filter element 15 is disposed inside the filter pipe 14, and the end of the connecting pipe 13 away from the filter pipe 14 is sealed to the water inlet of the liquid pump 5. The medicine in the liquid tank 2 enters the filter pipe 14 through the second water inlet pipe 12 and is filtered by the filter element 15 inside the filter pipe 14. Then the medicine enters the water inlet of the liquid pump 5 through the connecting pipe 13. The liquid pump 5 operates according to preset flow and pressure parameters to ensure that the treatment solution is output from the outlet pipe 8 at an appropriate speed and pressure, while ensuring the cleanliness of the output treatment solution and avoiding impurities in the treatment solution from affecting the intestinal hydrotherapy.

[0030] It is worth noting that the installation structure includes a connecting sleeve 17 and a connecting groove 19. The connecting sleeve 17 is fixedly disposed at the end of the filter element 15 away from the connecting pipe 13. The outer arc surface of the connecting sleeve 17 has a threaded groove. The connecting groove 19 is disposed inside the filter pipe 14, and the connecting groove 19 has a thread corresponding to the threaded groove. A first connecting member 16 is disposed on the side of the connecting pipe 13 near the liquid tank 2. The filter pipe 14 is sealed to the first connecting member 16 through a second connecting member 18. The filter pipe 14 and the second connecting member 18 have threads corresponding to the threaded groove inside. When cleaning the inside of the liquid tank 2, the first connector 16 and the second connector 18 are removed from the mounting slot corresponding to the filter element 15. Then, the other end of the filter tube 14 is removed, and the filter element 15 is rotated to drive the connecting sleeve 17 out of the connecting slot 19, thereby cleaning the filter element 15. At the same time, the filter element 15 can be pulled out from the mounting slot on the side of the second connector 18. The filter element 15 is larger than the connecting tube 13 and the inside of the first connector 16, thereby ensuring that the filter element 15 will not enter the inside of the connecting tube 13 through the first connector 16.

[0031] Specifically, the outlet pipe 8 is sealed to the end of the four-way valve 7 furthest from the liquid pump 5, and the pressure sensor 6 is sealed to the end of the four-way valve 7 furthest from the solenoid valve 9. A control system 4 is installed on the upper surface of the mounting plate 1, and the control system 4 is connected to the liquid pump 5, pressure sensor 6, and solenoid valve 9. Through the cooperation of pressure sensor 6 and solenoid valve 9, the pressure changes of the outlet pipe 8 in the same direction as the four-way valve 7 are monitored in real time. The function of pressure sensor 6 is to detect and transmit the pressure data of the outlet pipe 8, which can be read in real time by the control system 4. When the pressure data exceeds the preset safety range, the control system 4 will react quickly. At this time, the solenoid valve 9 will intervene, and it can quickly open or close according to the instructions of the control system 4 to adjust the infusion rate of the outlet pipe 8. Through this pressure protection mechanism, this invention can automatically take measures to protect user safety under extreme conditions, such as improper operation of the liquid pump 5 or other equipment, or system failure. In addition, this automatic pressure protection function can also extend the service life of the equipment and reduce equipment damage caused by abnormal pressure.

[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art 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 appended claims and their equivalents.
