Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of surgical instrument technology, specifically to a storage device suitable for sterilizing surgical instruments. Background Technology
[0002] Surgical instruments refer to medical devices used in clinical surgery. In addition to routine surgical instruments, there are also some specialized instruments: orthopedic, urological, obstetrics and gynecology, burn surgery, plastic surgery, neurosurgery, cardiothoracic surgery, general surgery, etc. A good surgical instrument can be used for ten years with proper use and maintenance, thus extending the life of the surgical instrument. Surgical instruments need to be sterilized before use. During sterilization, the surgical instruments are usually placed in a tray and sent into the sterilization device for sterilization.
[0003] Currently, when placing surgical instruments on a tray, the instruments are usually placed directly inside the tray without any restraint. This can easily lead to contact and friction between the instruments, causing wear and tear and reducing their lifespan. To address this, we propose a storage device suitable for sterilizing surgical instruments. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a storage device suitable for sterilizing surgical instruments, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that currently, surgical instruments are usually placed directly inside the tray, which lacks restraint on the surgical instruments, making it easy for the surgical instruments to come into contact and rub against each other, resulting in wear and tear on the surgical instruments and a reduction in their service life.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a storage device suitable for sterilizing surgical instruments, comprising a placement basket, a through hole, a limiting mechanism, and an adjusting mechanism. The through hole is uniformly opened through the outer side wall of the placement basket. The adjusting mechanism is disposed at the top of the placement basket. The limiting mechanism is disposed at the top of the adjusting mechanism. The limiting mechanism includes a mounting plate fixed to the top of the adjusting mechanism. The top of the mounting plate is uniformly provided with placement grooves. The middle of both sides of the placement grooves is provided with mounting cavities. A compression spring is uniformly fixed to one side of the mounting cavity. A connecting plate is fixed to one end of the compression spring. A connecting block is fixed to the middle of one side of the connecting plate. A clamping plate is fixed to one side of the connecting block.
[0006] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0007] The connecting plate slides inside the mounting cavity, and the outer wall of the connecting plate is in contact with the inner wall of the mounting cavity.
[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0009] The clamp is located inside the placement groove, and a rubber pad is fixed to one side of the clamp.
[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0011] The adjustment mechanism includes mounting strips symmetrically fixed to the bottom of the inner cavity of the placement basket. Slots are evenly provided on opposite sides of the two mounting strips. A mounting box is connected to the inner side of the two mounting strips, and the mounting plate is fixed to the top of the mounting box. A sliding rod is fixed to the bottom between the two sides of the inner cavity of the mounting box. A circular plate is symmetrically fixed to the outer wall of the sliding rod. A return spring is fixed to one side of the circular plate. A movable seat slides symmetrically on the outer side of the sliding rod. A plug is fixed to the bottom of one side of the movable seat. A connecting rod rotates inside the movable seat. A moving groove is provided through the top of both sides of the mounting box. A pull block slides inside the moving groove. A moving plate is fixed to opposite sides of the two pull blocks. A connecting seat is fixed to the middle of both sides of the moving plate.
[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0013] One end of the return spring is fixed to one side of the movable seat, and the return spring is sleeved on the outside of the slide rod.
[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0015] The insert extends through the outside of the mounting box and is slidably connected to the mounting box.
[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0017] One end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the inside of the connecting seat, and the two sides of the pull block are in contact with the two sides of the moving groove.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0019] This storage device for surgical instrument sterilization involves moving the clamps apart when placing the instruments. This causes the connecting blocks to move away from each other, which in turn moves the connecting plate, compressing a spring and placing the surgical instrument inside the placement slot. Loosening the clamps allows the spring to reset, causing the connecting plate and connecting blocks to return to their original positions. This clamping action restricts the movement of the surgical instruments during transport to the sterilization device, preventing friction and reducing wear. This extends the device's lifespan and enhances its practicality.
[0020] This storage device for sterilizing surgical instruments raises a movable plate by pulling a lever, causing the connecting seat to rise. This, in turn, causes the connecting rod to deflect vertically, bringing the movable seats closer together and compressing the return spring. Simultaneously, the insert block is disengaged from the slot, releasing the mounting box from its fixation. The mounting box can then be moved, and the spacing between the mounting boxes can be adjusted according to the size of the surgical instruments to avoid interference when placing them. This facilitates adjustment and improves the applicability of the device. Attached Figure Description

[0030] This invention provides a storage device for surgical instrument sterilization. It limits the movement of surgical instruments during transport to the sterilization device, preventing friction and thus reducing wear, extending service life, and improving the device's practicality. Please refer to [link to related documentation]. Figure 1-5 It includes a placement basket 100, a through hole 200, a limiting mechanism 300, and an adjustment mechanism 400;
[0031] Please refer to it again. Figure 1 The placement basket 100 is used to install the through hole 200, the limiting mechanism 300, and the adjusting mechanism 400;
[0032] Please refer to it again. Figure 1 Through holes 200 are evenly opened through the outer side wall of the placement basket 100 to facilitate the entry of steam into the placement basket 100 during disinfection. The adjustment mechanism 400 is set at the top of the placement basket 100, and the limiting mechanism 300 is set at the top of the adjustment mechanism 400.
[0033] Please refer to it again. Figure 2 The limiting mechanism 300 includes a mounting plate 310 fixed to the top of the adjusting mechanism 400, and the top of the mounting plate 310 is evenly provided with placement grooves 320.
[0034] Please refer to it again. Figure 2The middle of both sides of the placement groove 320 is provided with mounting cavities 330, and compression springs 340 are evenly fixed on one side of the mounting cavity 330.
[0035] Please refer to it again. Figure 2 One end of the compression spring 340 is fixed with a connecting plate 350, a connecting block 360 is fixed in the middle of one side of the connecting plate 350, and a clamping plate 370 is fixed in one side of the connecting block 360.
[0036] In summary, when placing surgical instruments, moving the clamps 370 away from each other causes the connecting blocks 360 to move away from each other, resulting in the movement of the connecting plate 350. This compresses the compression spring 340, placing the surgical instruments inside the placement slot 320. Loosening the clamps 370 allows the compression spring 340 to reset, causing the connecting plate 350 to move the connecting block 360 back to its original position. This clamps 370 to hold and limit the surgical instruments, preventing them from moving and rubbing together when being transported to the sterilization device. This reduces wear, extends service life, and improves the practicality of the device.
[0037] Please refer to it again. Figure 2 The connecting plate 350 slides inside the mounting cavity 330, and the outer wall of the connecting plate 350 is in contact with the inner wall of the mounting cavity 330.
[0038] Please refer to it again. Figure 2 The clamping plate 370 is located inside the placement groove 320, and a rubber pad is fixed on one side of the clamping plate 370.
[0039] Please refer to it again. Figure 4 and Figure 5 The adjustment mechanism 400 includes mounting strips 490 symmetrically fixed to the bottom of the inner cavity of the placement basket 100. Slots 491 are evenly provided on opposite sides of the two mounting strips 490. The inner sides of the two mounting strips 490 are connected to the mounting box 410, and the mounting plate 310 is fixed to the top of the mounting box 410. A sliding rod 420 is fixed to the bottom between the two sides of the inner cavity of the mounting box 410. A circular plate 430 is symmetrically fixed to the outer side of the sliding rod 420. A return spring 440 is fixed to one side of the circular plate 430. A movable seat 450 is symmetrically slidable on the outer side of the sliding rod 420. A plug block 451 is fixed to the bottom of one side of the movable seat 450. A connecting rod 460 rotates inside the movable seat 450. A moving groove 470 is provided through the top of both sides of the mounting box 410. A pull block 471 slides inside the moving groove 470. A moving plate 480 is fixed to opposite sides of the two pull blocks 471. A connecting seat 481 is fixed to the middle of both sides of the moving plate 480.
[0040] Please refer to it again. Figure 4 One end of the return spring 440 is fixed to one side of the movable seat 450, and the return spring 440 is sleeved on the outside of the slide rod 420.
[0041] Please refer to it again. Figure 4 The insert 451 extends through the outer side of the mounting box 410, and the insert 451 is slidably connected to the mounting box 410.
[0042] Please refer to it again. Figure 4 One end of the connecting rod 460 is rotatably connected to the inside of the connecting seat 481, and the two sides of the pull block 471 are in contact with the two sides of the moving groove 470.
[0043] In summary, by pulling the pull block 471, the moving plate 480 is raised, causing the connecting seat 481 to rise, which in turn causes the connecting rod 460 to deflect vertically, bringing the moving seats 450 closer together and squeezing the return spring 440. At the same time, the insert block 451 is disengaged from the slot 491, releasing the fixing of the mounting box 410. Then, the mounting box 410 is moved, and the spacing between the mounting boxes 410 is adjusted according to the size of the surgical instruments to avoid interference when placing the surgical instruments, facilitate adjustment, and improve the applicability of the device.
[0044] In practical use, before storing the surgical instruments, those skilled in the art pull upwards on the pull block 471, causing the moving plate 480 to rise. This raises the connecting seat 481, causing the connecting rod 460 to deflect vertically, bringing the moving seats 450 closer together. This compresses the return spring 440, simultaneously disengaging the insert 451 from the slot 491 and releasing the fixing of the mounting box 410. Then, the mounting box 410 is moved, and the spacing between the mounting boxes 410 is adjusted according to the size of the surgical instruments to align the insert 451 with the slot 491. The pull block 471 is then loosened, and the return spring 440 resets, causing the moving seat 450 to move closer together. The seat 450 is reset, so that the insert 451 is embedded in the slot 491 and fixed to the mounting box 410. Then, the clamp 370 is moved so that the two clamps 370 are far apart, which drives the connecting blocks 360 to be far apart, so that the connecting plate 350 moves and squeezes the compression spring 340, placing the surgical instrument inside the placement slot 320. The clamp 370 is loosened, and the compression spring 340 is reset, so that the connecting plate 350 drives the connecting block 360 to reset, so that the clamp 370 clamps the surgical instrument and limits the surgical instrument to avoid contact and friction between the surgical instruments. The placement basket 100 is sent into the sterilization device for sterilization.
