Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device packaging technology, and in particular to a damage-resistant sterilization box for bronchoscope packaging. Background Technology
[0002] A bronchoscope (fiberoptic bronchoscope) is a precision medical instrument used for dynamic observation and biopsy sampling of the nasal cavity, pharynx, trachea, and bronchi. After use in the hospital's endoscopy center, the bronchoscope needs to be sent to the hospital's sterilization supply center for cleaning, packaging, and disinfection before being returned to the endoscopy room for continued use.
[0003] Hospital endoscopy centers use various models of bronchoscopes. All models of bronchoscopes are similar in appearance, consisting of a handle and a flexible tube connected to the end of the handle. The difference usually lies in the size of the handle and the thickness of the flexible tube.
[0004] After being cleaned at the sterilization supply center, bronchoscopes need to be placed in packaging boxes with perforations before further sealing and disinfection. Staff at the sterilization supply center hope to design a packaging box that is compatible with different models of bronchoscopes and provides a sturdy and reliable fit, in order to improve the reliability of the bronchoscope transport process and prevent damage during transit. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a damage-resistant sterilization box for bronchoscope packaging. It can be adapted to different models of bronchoscopes and ensures that the bronchoscopes are firmly and reliably loaded, greatly reducing the possibility of bronchoscopes being damaged by bumps during transportation.
[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is: a damage-resistant bronchoscopic packaging sterilization box for loading bronchoscopic instruments, wherein the bronchoscopic instruments include a handle and a flexible tube connected to the end of the handle;
[0007] Damage-resistant bronchoscope packaging sterilization box, including lid and box body;
[0008] All walls of the lid and body are perforated mesh panels. Substrate A and Substrate B are fixedly installed on the inner surface of the lid, and substrate C and Substrate D are fixedly installed on the bottom inner surface of the body. When the lid is closed at the opening at the top of the body, substrate A and substrate C face each other, and substrate B and substrate D face each other.
[0009] Multiple flexible pressure strips for pressing or limiting the handle of the bronchoscope are fixedly connected to substrate A. A first track is fixedly installed on substrate C. A C-shaped elastic bracket for securing the handle of the bronchoscope is movably installed on the first track. When the C-shaped elastic bracket moves to any position on the first track, the C-shaped elastic bracket and the first track are relatively fixed by friction.
[0010] Multiple flexible limiting strips for limiting the flexible tube of the bronchoscope are fixedly connected to the substrate B. A second track is fixedly installed on the substrate D. A C-shaped elastic clip for securing the flexible tube of the bronchoscope is movably installed on the second track. When the C-shaped elastic clip moves to any position on the second track, the C-shaped elastic clip and the second track are relatively fixed by friction.
[0011] A further technical solution of this utility model is as follows: there are two sets of flexible pressure strips; the first set includes two rows of parallel flexible pressure strips. When the bronchoscope handle is installed in the C-shaped elastic bracket, the two rows of flexible pressure strips in the first set are distributed on both sides of the bronchoscope handle and arranged in a figure-eight shape to limit the bronchoscope handle; the second set includes multiple flexible pressure strips arranged in a dot matrix. All the flexible pressure strips in the second set are located between the two rows of flexible pressure strips in the first set. When the bronchoscope handle is installed in the C-shaped elastic bracket, the ends of all the flexible pressure strips in the second set abut against the bronchoscope handle to press the bronchoscope handle tightly.
[0012] A further technical solution of this utility model is: the flexible limiting strip includes two rows of parallel flexible limiting strips. When the flexible tube of the bronchoscope is installed in the C-shaped elastic clip, the two rows of flexible limiting strips are distributed on both sides of the flexible tube of the bronchoscope and arranged in a figure-eight shape to limit the flexible tube of the bronchoscope.
[0013] A further technical solution of this utility model is: the frictional force required to move the C-shaped elastic bracket on the first track is four times or more the weight of the bronchoscopic handle; the frictional force required to move the C-shaped elastic clip on the second track is four times or more the weight of the bronchoscopic flexible tube.
[0014] A further technical solution of this utility model is: a label plate for writing with a marker pen is fixed on the outer surface of the box cover, and the label plate is used to record the model of the loaded bronchoscope.
[0015] A further technical solution of this utility model is: a vertically arranged baffle is provided at one corner of the box body. The baffle is a mesh plate with holes. The height of the baffle is consistent with the depth of the inner cavity of the box. When the box lid is closed at the upper opening of the box body, the baffle, the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the box body and the inner surface of the box lid form a sub-cavity.
[0016] This utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0017] 1. It is used to load different types of bronchoscopes. Specifically, it is suitable for the packaging and disinfection of bronchoscopes after they have been cleaned in the hospital's sterilization supply center. It has a fixing structure on both the lid and the inside of the box, so that the bronchoscopes are firmly and reliably loaded and will not shift or be bumped, thus providing good protection for the bronchoscopes.
[0018] 2. Both the flexible pressure strip (first group) and the flexible limiting strip (two rows) are arranged in a figure-eight shape (which is equivalent to forming a range that gradually decreases in size from the opening inward), which can adapt to the fixation requirements of different models (sizes) of bronchoscopes.
[0019] 3. Both the C-shaped elastic brackets used to fix the bronchoscope handle and the C-shaped elastic clips used to fix the bronchoscope flexible tube adopt a movable connection design of "track-connection groove", which makes it easy to flexibly increase or decrease the number of C-shaped elastic brackets or C-shaped elastic clips, and can adapt to the fixing requirements of different models (sizes) of bronchoscopes.

Detailed Implementation
[0027] Example 1:
[0028] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a damage-resistant bronchoscope packaging sterilization box is used to hold a bronchoscope 100. The bronchoscope 100 includes a handle 101 and a flexible tube 102 connected to the end of the handle 101. The damage-resistant bronchoscope packaging sterilization box includes a lid 1 and a box body 2.
[0029] All walls of the lid 1 and the body 2 are perforated mesh panels. The inner surface of the lid 1 is fixedly mounted with substrate A11 and substrate B12, and the inner bottom surface of the body 2 is fixedly mounted with substrate C21 and substrate D22. When the lid 1 is movably closed at the upper opening of the body 2, substrate A11 and substrate C21 face each other, and substrate B12 and substrate D22 face each other. A first section for fixing the handle 101 of the bronchoscope 100 is formed between substrate A11 and substrate C21, and a second section for fixing the flexible tube 102 of the bronchoscope 100 is formed between substrate B12 and substrate D22.
[0030] Multiple flexible pressure strips 13 for pressing or limiting the handle of the bronchoscope are fixedly connected to the substrate A11. A first track 23 is fixedly installed on the substrate C21. A C-shaped elastic bracket 24 for securing the handle of the bronchoscope is movably installed on the first track 23. When the C-shaped elastic bracket 24 moves to any position on the first track 23, the C-shaped elastic bracket 24 and the first track 23 are relatively fixed by friction. The end of the C-shaped elastic bracket 24 facing the opening of the box 1 has an opening, and the end of the C-shaped elastic bracket 24 connected to the first track 23 has a first mating groove. The C-shaped elastic bracket 24 is movably inserted into the first track 23 through the first mating groove.
[0031] Multiple flexible limiting strips 14 for limiting the flexible tube of the bronchoscope are fixedly connected to the substrate B12. A second track 25 is fixedly installed on the substrate D22. A C-shaped elastic clip 26 for securing the flexible tube 102 of the bronchoscope 100 is movably installed on the second track 25. When the C-shaped elastic clip 26 moves to any position on the second track 25, the C-shaped elastic clip 26 and the second track 25 are relatively fixed by friction. The end of the C-shaped elastic clip 26 facing the opening of the box 2 is provided with an opening, and the end of the C-shaped elastic clip 26 connected to the second track 25 is provided with a second docking groove. The C-shaped elastic clip 26 is movably inserted into the second track 25 through the second docking groove.
[0032] Preferably, there are two sets of flexible pressure strips 13; the first set includes two rows of parallel flexible pressure strips 13. When the handle 101 of the bronchoscope 100 is installed in the C-shaped elastic bracket 24, the two rows of flexible pressure strips 13 of the first set are distributed on both sides of the handle 101 of the bronchoscope 100 and arranged in a figure-eight shape (separation angle of 6°) to limit the handle 101 of the bronchoscope 100; the second set includes multiple flexible pressure strips 13 arranged in a dot matrix. All the flexible pressure strips 13 of the second set are located between the two rows of flexible pressure strips 13 of the first set. When the handle 101 of the bronchoscope 100 is installed in the C-shaped elastic bracket 24, the ends of all the flexible pressure strips 13 of the second set abut against the handle 101 of the bronchoscope 100 to press the handle 101 of the bronchoscope 100.
[0033] Preferably, the flexible limiting strip 14 includes two rows of parallel flexible limiting strips 14. When the flexible tube 102 of the bronchoscope 100 is installed in the C-shaped elastic clip 26, the two rows of flexible limiting strips 14 are distributed on both sides of the flexible tube 102 of the bronchoscope 100 and arranged in a figure-eight shape (separation angle is 6°) to limit the flexible tube 102 of the bronchoscope 100.
[0034] Preferably, the frictional force required to move the C-shaped elastic holder 24 on the first track 23 is four times or more the weight of the handle 101 of the bronchoscope 100.
[0035] Preferably, the frictional force required to move the C-shaped elastic clip 26 on the second track 25 is four times or more the weight of the flexible tube 102 of the bronchoscopy lens 100.
[0036] Preferably, a label plate 15 for writing with a marker pen is fixed on the outer surface of the box cover 1. The label plate 15 is used to record the model of the bronchoscope loaded.
[0037] Preferably, the lid 1 and the box body 2 are locked or unlocked by a knob lock 3. The knob lock 3 is installed on the lid 1 and can be connected or separated from the box body 2 by twisting. When the knob lock 3 is connected to the box body 2, the lid 1 and the box body 2 are in a locked state, and the lid 1 and the box body 2 are connected as one piece and cannot be separated. When the knob lock 3 is separated from the box body 2, the lid 1 and the box body 2 are in an unlocked state, and the lid 1 and the box body 2 can be movably inserted and separated from each other.
[0038] Preferably, a vertically arranged baffle 15 is provided at one corner of the box body 2. The baffle 15 is a mesh plate with holes. The height of the baffle 15 is the same as the depth of the inner cavity of the box body 1. When the box cover 1 is closed at the upper opening of the box body 2, the baffle 15, the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the box body 2 and the inner surface of the box cover 1 together form a sub-cavity 16 for placing small-sized accessories or parts of the bronchoscope 100.
[0039] Briefly describe the use of this utility model:
[0040] After the bronchoscope 100 is cleaned in the sterilization supply center, it is placed in a sterilization box for the next step of disinfection. The perforated mesh design of the box lid 1 and box body 2 facilitates the entry of the disinfection medium into the sterilization box. The first and second sections in the sterilization box are used to fix the handle 101 and flexible tube 102 of the bronchoscope 100, respectively. The handle 101 is inserted into the C-shaped elastic seat 24 at its lower end, and is limited on both sides by the first set of flexible pressure strips 13. The handle 101 is held in place at its upper end by the second set of flexible pressure strips 13, thus being firmly fixed in the first section. The flexible tube 102 is inserted into the C-shaped elastic clip 26 at its lower end, and is limited on both sides by two rows of flexible limiting strips 14 arranged in a figure-eight shape, thus being firmly fixed in the second section.
[0041] During the subsequent transfer of the sterilization box, the friction between the C-shaped elastic bracket 24 and the first track is much greater than the weight of the bronchoscope 100 handle 101. Therefore, the C-shaped elastic bracket 24 will not slip and cause the bronchoscope 100 handle 101 to shift. Similarly, the friction between the C-shaped elastic clip 26 and the second track 25 is much greater than the weight of the flexible tube 102. Therefore, the C-shaped elastic clip 26 will not slip and cause the bronchoscope 100 flexible tube 102 to shift.
[0042] If different models of bronchoscopic lenses need to be installed, simply replace the C-shaped flexible bracket 24 and C-shaped flexible clip 26 with the corresponding sizes.
