Abstract

This utility model discloses a disinfection clip for neonatal umbilical cord care, relating to the field of umbilical cord care. It includes a tube body with a partition fixedly connected to its middle section, dividing the tube body into two movable chambers, each containing a bottom box. A pusher block drives three inclined clamping tips to extend out of the tube body into an open shape, then into a cotton swab bag. A single cotton swab is inserted, aligned with its tail end. The pusher block is then slowly released, causing the bottom box to retract and pull out the single cotton swab inserted into a rubber cap. At this point, the anti-slip pads at the ends of the three inclined clamping tips gradually converge and squeeze, clamping the cotton swab stem. A cotton swab can also be fixed to the other end in the same way. After one end of the cotton swab is used, the direction is reversed, and the other end is used to disinfect the umbilical cord. This facilitates grabbing a single cotton swab from the small-opening plastic bag, and can also fix two cotton swabs at once, allowing for one-handed disinfection with two swabs.
