Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning brush technology, and in particular to an endoscope cleaning brush that can prevent the brush head from falling off. Background Technology
[0002] The main functions of an endoscope cleaning brush include: 1) Cleaning the endoscope surface: Endoscopes are contaminated with various pollutants during use, such as blood, mucus, and bacteria. Using an endoscope cleaning brush effectively removes these contaminants and bacteria, ensuring the cleanliness and hygiene of the endoscope. 2) Preventing cross-infection: There is a risk of cross-infection when endoscopes are used between different patients. Since endoscope cleaning brushes are usually disposable, they can be discarded after use without the need for further cleaning and disinfection, thus avoiding the risk of cross-infection. 3) Extending the lifespan of the endoscope: Regular cleaning with an endoscope cleaning brush can extend the lifespan of the endoscope, reduce the frequency of repairs and replacements, and save medical resources. 4) Convenience and speed: The endoscope cleaning brush has a simple design and is easy to operate. After using the endoscope, medical staff can quickly and easily complete the cleaning work by simply using the cleaning brush.
[0003] Existing endoscope cleaning brushes have significant design flaws. These products typically employ an integrated brush head and main shaft design, meaning the entire brush can only be used once. In practice, whether a single cleaning task is completed or the brush head is damaged, the entire brush, including the main shaft, must be discarded, wasting this still-usable component. Therefore, existing endoscope cleaning brushes need to be optimized and improved. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the aforementioned problems in traditional technologies and provide an endoscope cleaning brush that can prevent the brush head from falling off.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives and effects, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution:

[0012] Furthermore, in the aforementioned endoscope cleaning brush that prevents the brush head from falling off, the diameter of the anti-detachment groove in the side rod portion is equal to the outer diameter of the spiral rod portion in the brush head component, and the outer diameter of the protrusion in the side rod portion is equal to the inner diameter of the spiral rod portion in the brush head component.
[0013] Furthermore, in the aforementioned endoscope cleaning brush that prevents the brush head from falling off, the anti-detachment groove in the side rod portion has a conical surface located near the through groove.
[0014] Furthermore, in the aforementioned endoscope cleaning brush that prevents the brush head from falling off, the middle rod portion has an axial weight-reducing groove inside the protrusion.
[0015] Furthermore, in the aforementioned endoscope cleaning brush that prevents the brush head from falling off, the outer surface of the middle rod is provided with anti-slip ridges.
[0016] Furthermore, in the aforementioned endoscope cleaning brush that prevents the brush head from falling off, the outer diameters of the first rod portion in the middle rod portion and the second rod portion in the side rod portion are equal.
[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0018] The endoscope cleaning brush provided by this utility model has a reasonable design. It adopts a split main rod consisting of a central rod and side rods installed on both sides. The brush head component mainly consists of a spiral rod, a straight rod, a wire rod, and bristles. During assembly, the wire rod and straight rod of the brush head component are first passed through the groove of the side rod, and the spiral rod of the brush head component is blocked in the anti-detachment groove of the side rod. Then, the side rod is screwed to the outside of the central rod. In this way, the main rod can be reused, improving resource utilization and saving costs. At the same time, it can effectively prevent the brush head component from falling off during use.
[0019] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the above advantages at the same time. Attached Figure Description
