Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of infant incubator technology, and in particular to a composite ventilation regulation device for the temperature control door panel of an infant incubator. Background Technology

[0002] Infant incubators are primarily used to provide a clean, temperature- and humidity-controlled environment for the incubation and treatment of low-birth-weight infants, critically ill infants, and premature infants. They are used for constant-temperature incubation, temperature resuscitation, intravenous infusion, oxygen administration, resuscitation, and hospital observation. For example, utility model patent CN211095561U discloses a similar infant incubator, which includes: a support frame, casters, a drawer, a housing, a door, a base, a movable bed, a power unit, and a locking device. The lower part of the removable infant incubator has a support frame with casters at the bottom and a base fixed to the top. The housing is mounted on the top surface of the base, with a door rotatably connected to one side of the housing. A drawer is located between the bottom of the base and the support frame.

[0003] The aforementioned infant incubator features a rotating door attached to one side of the unit, facilitating easy access for medical staff to place and retrieve the infant. However, in actual use, because the incubator is a relatively enclosed space, the temperature inside gradually rises due to the infant's body temperature and respiration. Once the temperature reaches a certain level, it can cause discomfort for the infant, posing a significant safety hazard, and therefore requires further improvement. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a composite ventilation and adjustment device for the temperature control door of an infant incubator. This device can draw air from the incubator as needed to maintain ventilation inside the incubator, thereby regulating the temperature and making the environment inside the incubator more comfortable.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a solution through the following technical method:

[0006] A composite ventilation regulating device for a temperature control door panel of an infant incubator includes a box body and a door rotatably disposed on one side of the box body. The door is embedded with a manifold and several drainage pipes connected to the manifold. The manifold and drainage pipes are arranged along the surface of the door panel. Several air intake holes connected to the drainage pipes are opened on the inner side of the door. An air extraction hole connected to the manifold is opened on the outer side of the door. An exhaust mechanism for drawing air from the manifold is detachably connected to the air extraction hole.

[0007] Using the above solution, the ventilation system sequentially draws air from the incubator through the extraction port, manifold, drainage pipe, and suction port, maintaining ventilation and preventing a continuous rise in temperature. This improves comfort within the incubator while ensuring the safety of the infant. Integrating the drainage pipe and manifold into the door simplifies the door's external structure and prevents external piping from obstructing the door, allowing medical staff to easily observe the infant's condition through the door.

[0008] Preferably, the door is provided with at least one ventilation hole.

[0009] By adopting the above solution, the vents can maintain the air pressure balance inside the infant incubator, preventing negative pressure from occurring inside the chamber during the air extraction process, and further improving the baby's comfort.

[0010] Preferably, the two ends of the vent are staggered, with the upper end located inside the door and the lower end located outside the door.

[0011] By adopting the above solution and setting the two ends of the vent hole to be staggered, the vent hole can maintain its ventilation function and reduce the probability of external dust entering the infant incubator, thereby further improving the internal environment of the infant incubator.

[0012] Preferably, the ventilation mechanism includes a ventilation device and a connector assembly detachably connected to the ventilation port 1. The connector assembly is connected to the ventilation port of the ventilation device via a pipeline.

[0013] By adopting the above solution, the connector assembly detachably connected to the first exhaust port enables a detachable connection between the exhaust mechanism and the first exhaust port, thereby facilitating maintenance of the door and the exhaust mechanism. The separate design of the exhaust device and the connector assembly effectively reduces the installation load on the door and improves the efficiency and convenience of subsequent maintenance.

[0014] Preferably, the connector assembly includes an annular surrounding plate disposed on the outside of the box door and surrounding the outside of the first exhaust port. The opening of the annular surrounding plate is covered by a cover, and the second exhaust port is penetrated through the cover. The second exhaust port is connected to an exhaust device through a pipeline. Side plates are provided on both sides of the cover and in the direction close to the box door. Guide grooves are provided on the opposite surfaces of the two side plates. Guide rods are provided on both sides of the annular surrounding plate for sliding and engaging with the two guide grooves.

[0015] The above solution, with its sliding and snap-fit ​​connection between the guide groove and the guide rod, can improve the sealing between the two side plates and the annular surrounding plate, and also ensure the efficiency and convenience of disassembling and assembling the cover.

[0016] Preferably, an air nozzle is provided on the outside of the second air extraction port for connecting pipelines.

[0017] By adopting the above solution, the pipeline can be stably connected to the second vent hole, and the probability of pipeline leakage is effectively reduced.

[0018] Preferably, a limiting plate is connected between the ends of the two side plates.

[0019] By adopting the above solution, the limiting plate can effectively limit the first extreme position of the cap on the annular plate, thereby improving the installation efficiency and accuracy of the cap.

[0020] Preferably, the annular enclosure is provided with a sealing strip on the side near the limiting plate for the limiting plate to press against.

[0021] By adopting the above solution, the sealing strip, together with the limiting plate, can improve the sealing between the sealing side and the annular surrounding plate, thereby reducing the risk of air leakage during the exhaust process.

[0022] Preferably, a locking plate is detachably connected between the ends of the two side plates away from the limiting plate to prevent the side plates from detaching from the guide rod.

[0023] Using the above solution, the locking plate can lock the other side of the cover, and together with the limiting plate, it can effectively improve the connection stability between the cover and the annular enclosure.

[0024] Preferably, the locking plate has a sealing strip on its cover surface that presses against the annular surrounding plate and the side of the cover.

[0025] By adopting the above solution, the second sealing strip can improve the sealing between the other side of the cover and the annular surrounding plate, further reduce the risk of air leakage in the suction mechanism, and thus improve the suction efficiency.

[0026] This invention, by employing the above technical solutions, achieves significant technical advantages: the ventilation mechanism sequentially draws air from the incubator through the extraction port, manifold, drainage pipe, and suction port, maintaining ventilation and preventing a continuous rise in temperature within the incubator, thereby improving comfort and ensuring the safety of the infant. Integrating the drainage pipe and manifold into the door simplifies the door's external structure and prevents external pipes from obstructing the door, facilitating observation of the infant's condition by medical personnel.

[0035] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown in this embodiment, a composite ventilation adjustment device for the temperature control door of an infant incubator includes a housing 1 and a door 2 rotatably mounted on one side of the housing 1. Both the side wall of the housing 1 and the door 2 are made of transparent acrylic sheets, thus providing good visibility and facilitating observation of the interior of the housing 1 by medical personnel. The door 2 is pivotally connected to one side of the housing 1 via a hinge (not shown), allowing for stable and smooth rotation and opening / closing. A base 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the housing 1, and a bracket 24 is fixedly connected below the base 23. Rollers 25 are provided at the four corners of the bottom of the bracket 24, facilitating the movement of the infant incubator.

[0037] To achieve the temperature control and airflow regulation function of the door 2, a manifold 3 and several drainage pipes 4 connected to the manifold 3 are embedded inside the door 2. The manifold 3 is vertically arranged on one side of the door 2, and the drainage pipes 4 are connected in parallel to the manifold 3 along the surface of the door 2. Both the manifold 3 and the drainage pipes 4 are arranged along the surface of the door 2. Several air intake holes 5 connected to the drainage pipes 4 are opened on the inner side of the door 2. The air intake holes 5 are divided into several groups according to the number of drainage pipes 4. Each group of air intake holes 5 is arranged at equal intervals along the length of the corresponding drainage pipe 4 to ensure uniform air intake. Three air extraction holes 6 connected to the manifold 3 are opened on the outer side of the door 2 and are arranged at equal intervals along the length of the manifold 3.

[0038] To achieve the suction of air intake 5, an exhaust mechanism 7 for suctioning air from manifold 3 is detachably connected to exhaust 6. Specifically, the exhaust mechanism 7 includes an exhaust device 9 and a connector assembly 10 detachably connected to the three exhaust 6. The connector assembly 10 is connected to the exhaust port of the exhaust device 9 via a pipeline 11. In this embodiment, the connector assembly 10 includes an annular surrounding plate 12 fixed to the outside of the door 2 and surrounding the outside of the three exhaust 6. The annular surrounding plate 12 is square, and its opening is covered by a square cap 13. Three equally spaced exhaust holes 14 are penetrating the cap 13. Each exhaust hole 14 is provided with an air nozzle 18 for the pipeline 11 to be tightly fitted on its outside, thereby achieving a stable connection between the exhaust hole 14 and the pipeline 11. The exhaust device 9 is preferably an exhaust fan, with its air intake 26 fixedly connected to an air collection tank 27 and communicating with the inner cavity of the air collection tank 27. Three equally spaced air nozzles 28 are integrally provided on the end face of the air collection tank 27 away from the exhaust device 9. The air nozzles 28 are connected to the inside of the air collection tank 27 and allow the ends of three pipelines 11 away from the first air nozzle 18 to be tightly connected, thereby achieving airway connection between the second exhaust port 14, the air collection tank 27, and the exhaust device 9. The pipelines 11 are preferably flexible hoses, thus improving the installation flexibility of the exhaust device 9.

[0039] To facilitate quick assembly and disassembly of the cover 13, side plates 15 are provided on both sides of the cover 13, near the door 2. Guide grooves 16 are provided on the opposite surfaces of the two side plates 15. Guide rods 17 are provided on both sides of the annular surrounding plate 12, allowing the two guide grooves 16 to slide and engage. A limiting plate 19 connects the ends of the two side plates 15, and a sealing strip 20 is affixed to the side of the annular surrounding plate 12 near the limiting plate 19 for pressure from the limiting plate 19. A locking plate 21 is detachably connected between the ends of the two side plates 15 away from the limiting plate 19 to prevent the side plates 15 from detaching from the guide rods 17. Specifically, the locking plate 21 has first lugs 29 at both ends and second lugs 30 on the opposite sides of the two side plates 15. The first lugs 29 and the second lugs 30 are connected by screws 31. The locking plate 21 has a sealing strip 22 attached to its cover surface, which presses against the sides of the annular surrounding plate 12 and the cover 13. Both the sealing strip 20 and the sealing strip 22 are made of long strip-shaped sheet silicone, thus providing better sealing performance.

[0040] To maintain air pressure balance inside the incubator, at least one vent 8 is provided on the door 2, and the vent 8 are arranged at equal intervals along the lower edge of the door 2. The two ends of each vent 8 are staggered vertically, with the upper end located inside the door 2 and the lower end located outside the door 2, thereby reducing the probability of external dust entering the chamber 1 and making the inside of the infant incubator more hygienic.

[0041] The specific usage process is as follows:

[0042] When connecting the exhaust mechanism 7, first connect the three air nozzles 18 on the cover 13 to the three air nozzles 28 on the air collection tank 27 via three pipelines 11. Then, cover the opening of the annular plate 12 with the cover 13 through the sliding engagement between the guide groove 16 and the guide rod 17. When the limiting plate 19 on the cover 13 abuts against the sealing strip 20 on the annular plate 12, attach the locking plate 21 to the other side of the cover 13 and the annular plate 12 so that the sealing strip 22 seals the joint between the cover 13 and the annular plate 12, so that the first lugs 29 at both ends of the locking plate 21 correspond to the second lugs 30 on both sides of the annular plate 12. At this time, fix the first lugs 29 and the second lugs 30 with screws 31 to fix the locking plate 21 to the annular plate 12, thereby completing the docking of the connector assembly 10 and the exhaust port 6.

[0043] After installation, with the door 2 closed, activate the exhaust system 9. The air intake 26 of the exhaust system 9 sequentially draws in warmer air from inside the incubator 1 through the air collection tank 27, pipeline 11, connector assembly 10, exhaust port 6, manifold 3, drainage pipe 4, and exhaust port 5, and replenishes fresh air into the incubator 1 through the vent 8. This effectively regulates the temperature inside the incubator and maintains air pressure balance, thereby improving the comfort of the incubator's interior space.

[0044] When disassembling the exhaust mechanism 7, simply reverse the installation steps described above.
