Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical and nursing equipment technology, specifically to a splash-proof waste liquid drainage and collection device for patients rinsing their mouths. Background Technology

[0002] In clinical nursing, patients who are conscious and understand instructions but require assistance from nursing staff to rinse their mouths in bed due to physical weakness or limited limb movement are examples of patients with high paraplegia, spinal fractures, severe heart failure or extreme weakness, or those who need to stay in bed in the early stages after major surgery.

[0003] However, due to their condition, these patients often have difficulty lifting their heads while bedridden, making it difficult for them to independently drain and collect mouthwash. Previously, disposable paper cups or simple drainage bags were commonly used to assist them with rinsing. However, these methods have significant shortcomings in terms of fit, splash prevention, and drainage efficiency, especially for patients who cannot lift their heads or whose posture is limited. The opening of the paper cup cannot fit tightly to the patient's mouth, easily causing spillage or splashing, polluting the surrounding environment and increasing the difficulty of care. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical breakthrough of this utility model lies in the design of a sealed and fitted structure and an adjustable bending corrugated part, which achieves anti-splashing, smooth drainage and multi-positional adaptation, thereby improving the efficiency and comfort of oral care for bedridden patients.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a splash-proof waste liquid drainage and collection device for patients rinsing their mouths, comprising:

[0006] The liquid receiving part has a liquid inlet connected to its side wall, which fits against the nozzle. The bottom of the liquid receiving part is connected to a corrugated part, and the bottom of the corrugated part is connected to a liquid collecting part. The inner cavities of the liquid inlet, liquid receiving part, corrugated part, and liquid collecting part are sequentially connected to form a complete drainage path. The inner wall of the liquid receiving part facing the liquid inlet has multiple concave anti-splash corrugations to disperse the liquid flow and prevent liquid rebound and splashing.

[0007] Preferably, the liquid receiving part, liquid inlet part, bent corrugated part and liquid collection part are all made of silicone material, which makes the whole safe and non-toxic, easy to clean, able to withstand repeated cleaning and disinfection, and has a long service life.

[0008] Preferably, the thickness of the edge wall of the liquid inlet is greater than the thickness of the middle wall, which can better fit the patient's mouth edge, reduce liquid leakage from the edge, and improve the sealing performance.

[0009] Preferably, the edge of the liquid inlet is provided with a sealing edge at the end away from the liquid receiving part. The sealing edge is integrally formed with the liquid inlet. The design of the sealing edge can better fit the patient's mouth edge, prevent liquid from leaking out from the edge of the liquid inlet, and ensure that waste liquid can completely enter the liquid receiving part.

[0010] Preferably, a transparent observation plate is embedded in the side wall of the collection section. The transparent observation plate is provided with scale markings. The transparent observation plate can clearly display the amount of waste liquid in the collection section, which makes it convenient for medical staff or patients' families to understand the collection status of waste liquid in a timely manner and avoids the overflow of waste liquid in the collection section.

[0011] Preferably, the inner wall of the receiving part facing the liquid inlet is arc-shaped, and the anti-splash ripples are provided on the arc-shaped inner wall. The arc-shaped inner wall can guide the waste liquid to flow more smoothly into the liquid collection part, reduce the retention of liquid in the receiving part, and improve the drainage efficiency. At the same time, the arc-shaped inner wall can better disperse the impact force of the liquid. In combination with the anti-splash ripples, it can further reduce the splashing generated when the waste liquid flows in the receiving part.

[0012] Preferably, the inner cavity of the liquid inlet section has an expanding structure in the direction of the liquid receiving section, and the connection between the inner cavity of the liquid inlet section and the inner cavity of the liquid receiving section is smoothly transitioned, which can reduce the resistance to liquid flow, ensure that the waste liquid flows smoothly into the liquid receiving section, and improve the drainage effect.

[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the liquid collection section is provided with a detachable drain valve to facilitate the discharge of waste liquid in the liquid collection section later.

[0014] The technical effects and advantages provided by this utility model in the above technical solution are as follows:

[0015] 1. By connecting the liquid receiving part to the side wall of the liquid receiving part and fitting it to the mouth, and the thickness of the edge wall of the liquid receiving part is greater than the thickness of the middle wall, and a sealing edge is provided at the edge of the liquid receiving part away from the liquid receiving part, it can effectively fit with the patient's mouth edge, with good sealing performance, preventing liquid from leaking out from the edge of the liquid receiving part, ensuring that waste liquid can completely enter the liquid receiving part, avoiding overflow, and reducing patient discomfort;

[0016] 2. By setting a bent corrugated section between the liquid inlet and the liquid collection section, the design of the bent corrugated section increases the flexibility of the entire device, which can adjust the tilt angle between the liquid inlet and the liquid collection section, so that it can better adapt to different use environments and conditions, while maintaining the stability of the structure.

[0017] 3. The inner wall of the receiving part facing the liquid inlet is arc-shaped, and anti-splash corrugations are set on this arc-shaped inner wall, which can effectively increase the resistance to liquid flow and reduce splashing of waste liquid when it flows in the inner cavity of the receiving part.

[0018] 4. The liquid receiving part, liquid inlet part, bent corrugated part and liquid collection part are all made of silicone material, making the whole safe and non-toxic, easy to clean, and able to withstand repeated cleaning and disinfection.

[0019] 5. A transparent viewing plate is embedded in the side wall of the collection section. The transparent viewing plate can clearly display the amount of waste liquid in the collection section, which makes it convenient for medical staff or patients' families to understand the collection status of waste liquid in a timely manner and avoid the overflow of waste liquid in the collection section.
