Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of urine auxiliary collection equipment, and specifically relates to a urine collection and metering device for pregnant women. Background Technology
[0002] In clinical practice, to gain a clear understanding and accurate assessment of a pregnant woman's physical condition and medical status, it is often necessary to monitor and record her urination. Currently, conventional measuring cups are commonly used to collect urine. However, existing measuring cups have the following problems in use:
[0003] 1. If pregnant women use a measuring cup to collect urine directly, the narrow opening of the measuring cup makes it easy for urine to splash and leak during urination, which cannot guarantee the accuracy of the collected urine volume and is not conducive to judging the changes in urine volume before and after. At the same time, since the bottom of the measuring cup is not fixed, the measuring cup is prone to shifting, sliding or even tipping over during urine collection, which is unstable.
[0004] 2. If a pregnant woman uses a bedpan to collect urine and then pours the urine into a measuring cup for measurement, this method is cumbersome and time-consuming. During the pouring and transfer process, urine may splash or be cross-contaminated. In addition, since bedpans are generally used for squatting to collect urine, pregnant women are very likely to lose their balance and fall when squatting to urinate while their movements are not changing.
[0005] 3. Existing measuring cups have limited capacity, especially for pregnant women who urinate more frequently and in larger quantities, resulting in insufficient capacity and inability to collect sufficient and accurate urine. In addition, existing measuring cups can generally only collect urine once, and different measuring cups are needed to collect urine at different observation periods, which is not conducive to observing and comparing changes in urine color and urine volume before and after.
[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to design a urine collection and metering device for pregnant women that can at least solve some of the above problems and defects. Summary of the Invention
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model proposes a urine collection and measurement device for pregnant women, which facilitates the collection and retention of urine by pregnant women, avoids urine splashing and leakage during the collection process, and can independently separate and retain urine collected in adjacent time intervals, making it easy to clearly and intuitively observe the changes in urine color and urine volume before and after, so as to provide supporting evidence for the assessment of the pregnant woman's condition.
[0008] The technical solution of this utility model is:
[0009] This utility model proposes a urine collection and measuring device for pregnant women, including a cup body with an opening at the top and a detachable seat ring set at the opening at the top.
[0010] The seat ring is flared outwards, and the inside of the cup body is provided with a partition plate that divides its inner cavity into upper and lower layers. The partition plate is provided with an openable and closable connecting hole, so as to realize the connection and separation between the upper inner cavity and the lower inner cavity by opening and closing the connecting hole.
[0011] Preferably, a sealing push rod and a sealing wheel are movably embedded in the partition plate, and the sealing wheel is provided with a drain hole adapted to the connecting hole;
[0012] The sealing push rod is horizontally reciprocating and is inserted into the partition plate with a portion extending outward. The sealing wheel is rotatably embedded in the partition plate with its axis parallel to the axis of the cup body. The sealing push rod is engaged with the sealing wheel.
[0013] Preferably, at least two sealing rollers are provided, and they are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the sealing push rod;
[0014] The connecting holes and the drain holes are provided in multiples and are evenly distributed around the axis of the sealing wheel in the circumferential direction.
[0015] Preferably, the outer wall of the cup cylinder is provided with a grip handle fixedly connected thereto, and the extended end of the sealing push rod is provided with a push-pull rod handle fixedly connected thereto;
[0016] The inner side of the end where the grip handle connects to the cup body is provided with a sliding groove parallel to the sealing push rod, and both ends of the push-pull rod handle are movably embedded in the sliding groove.
[0017] Preferably, the outer wall of the cup cylinder is provided with two independent scale lines, which correspond to the upper inner cavity and the lower inner cavity of the cup cylinder respectively;
[0018] The cup body is provided with a liquid intake port that penetrates its side wall and communicates with its lower inner cavity.
[0019] Preferably, the urine collection and measuring device for pregnant women provided by this utility model further includes a suction cup disposed at the bottom of the cup body, wherein the bottom of the cup body is open and the suction cup is detachably disposed at the bottom opening.
[0020] Preferably, the urine collection and metering device for pregnant women provided by this utility model further includes a cover that is movable above the seat ring, and the top of the cover is provided with a grip handle.
[0021] This utility model has the following advantages and effects compared with the prior art:
[0022] (1) A detachable seat ring is used at the top opening of the cup body, and the seat ring is flared outwards, which makes it easier for pregnant women to urinate in a sitting position, improves the user experience of pregnant women, ensures the safety of pregnant women during urination, and at the same time, the flared seat ring can prevent urine from splashing and leaking, and ensure that urine is fully collected and stored.
[0023] (2) A partition plate with a connecting hole is used to divide the inside of the cup into an independent upper cavity and a lower cavity, so that urine can be collected and stored at the same time during two observation periods. This makes it easier to clearly and intuitively compare and observe the urine characteristics such as urine volume and urine color during two adjacent observation periods, thereby making it easier to judge the pregnant woman's physical condition or disease status in a timely manner.
[0024] (3) A detachable suction cup is used at the bottom of the cup body. The entire device can be attached to the ground by suction cup, which can prevent the cup body from sliding or tipping over during urine collection, thus improving the overall stability and reliability.

[0030] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand this utility model, it will now be further described in conjunction with specific embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative and explanatory purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0031] Example:
[0032] like Figures 1-2As shown, this utility model provides a urine collection and measuring device for pregnant women, including a cup body 1 with an open top, a detachable seat ring 2 disposed at the top opening, a suction cup 8 disposed at the bottom of the cup body 1, and a cover 9 movably disposed above the seat ring 2. The cup body 1 has an open bottom, and the suction cup 8 is detachably disposed at the bottom opening. The cover 9 has a gripping handle 91 at its top. The seat ring 2 is a smooth, outwardly flared funnel shape to facilitate urination in a sitting position, improving the comfort of urination and alleviating discomfort during pregnancy. The outwardly flared funnel shape also effectively prevents urine spillage. Specifically, in this embodiment, the seat ring 2 is detachably connected to the top of the cup body 1 via a threaded structure, and the suction cup 8 is detachably connected to the bottom of the cup body 1 via a threaded structure. To ensure a tight seal between the suction cup 8 and the cup body 1, a sealing ring is provided at the connection between the bottom of the cup body 1 and the top of the suction cup 8 to prevent leakage.
[0033] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the cup body 1 has a horizontally arranged partition plate 3 inside, dividing its inner cavity into upper and lower layers. The partition plate 3 has an openable and closable connecting hole 31, which allows for communication and separation between the upper and lower inner cavities. For details, refer to... Figure 4 As shown, a sealing push rod 4 and a sealing wheel 5 are movably embedded within the partition plate 3. The sealing wheel 5 is provided with a drainage hole 51 that matches the connecting hole 31. During the rotation of the sealing wheel 5, when there is an overlapping area between the drainage hole 51 of the sealing wheel 5 and the connecting hole 31 of the partition plate 3, urine in the upper inner cavity can flow into the lower inner cavity through the connecting channel formed by the connecting hole 31 and the drainage hole 51. When there is no overlapping area between the drainage hole 51 of the sealing wheel 5 and the connecting hole 31 of the partition plate 3, the connecting holes 31 on both the upper and lower sides of the partition plate 3 are in a disconnected state, and urine in the upper inner cavity cannot flow into the lower inner cavity. The upper and lower inner cavities are in a completely independent and isolated state. It should be noted that the upper and lower ends of the sealing wheel 5 are in a sealed connection with the partition plate 3 to facilitate urine leakage. For example, sealing rings can be provided on the outer edges of the upper and lower ends of the sealing wheel 5.
[0034] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the sealing push rod 4 is horizontally reciprocating and is inserted into the partition plate 3, with part of it extending outwards. The sealing wheel 5 is rotatably embedded in the partition plate 3, with its axis parallel to the axis of the cup body 1. The sealing push rod 4 and the sealing wheel 5 are meshed together. There are two sealing wheels 5, symmetrically distributed on both sides of the sealing push rod 4. By pushing and pulling the sealing push rod 4 to make it move horizontally, the sealing wheel 5 is driven to rotate, thereby causing the drain hole 51 and the connecting hole 31 to overlap or completely misalign, realizing the opening and closing of the connecting hole 31.
[0035] Furthermore, several connecting holes 31 and drainage holes 51 are provided, and they are evenly distributed around the axis of the sealing wheel 5 in the circumferential direction. It should be noted that since the connecting holes 31 are provided at both the top and bottom of the partition plate 3 and the connecting holes 31 at the top and bottom are coaxially arranged, the connecting holes 31 at both ends are not counted repeatedly in this embodiment.
[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, a grip handle 6 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cup body 1, and a push-pull rod handle 41 is fixedly connected to the extended end of the sealing push rod 4. A sliding groove 61 parallel to the sealing push rod 4 is provided on the inner side of the connection end (upper horizontal section and lower horizontal section) between the grip handle 6 and the cup body 1. The two ends of the push-pull rod handle 41 are movably embedded in the sliding groove 61. During use, simply push or pull the push-pull rod handle 41 to drive the sealing push rod 4 to move horizontally, thereby driving the sealing wheel 5 to rotate. It should be noted that, to ensure ease of use, the push-pull rod handle 41 can be set to the drain state when pulled outward to the outermost position of the slide groove 61, meaning that the drain hole 51 and the connecting hole 31 are completely aligned at this time. Conversely, the push-pull rod handle 41 can be set to the sealing state when pushed inward to the innermost position of the slide groove 61, meaning that the drain hole 51 and the connecting hole 31 are completely misaligned at this time. In this way, the user only needs to pull the push-pull rod handle 41 to the outermost position or push it to the innermost position during use.
[0037] Furthermore, the cup body 1 is a transparent cylinder, and its outer wall has two independent graduation lines, corresponding to the upper and lower inner cavities of the cup body 1, respectively, to independently read the urine retention volume in the upper and lower inner cavities. The cup body 1 also has a liquid collection port 7 that penetrates its side wall and communicates with its lower inner cavity, so as to discharge the urine retained in the lower inner cavity or collect a small amount of urine for sample testing. Optionally, in some embodiments, a light strip or light bar (not shown in the figure) is provided on the outer wall of the cup body 1 near the graduation line to facilitate use in nighttime scenarios, thereby accurately and clearly identifying and reading the urine volume graduations.
[0038] In summary, the urine collection and measurement device for pregnant women provided by this utility model facilitates urine collection for pregnant women, avoids urine splashing and leakage during the collection process, and allows for independent storage of urine collected at adjacent time intervals. This facilitates clear and intuitive observation of changes in urine color and volume, providing supporting evidence for the assessment of the pregnant woman's condition.
[0039] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and do not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
