Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical supplies, and in particular to a stool collection device. Background Technology

[0002] Stool (fecal) routine examination is one of the three routine medical examination items (blood routine, urine routine, and stool routine). By examining and testing the stool, we can understand whether there are symptoms of bacterial, viral, or parasitic infections in the digestive tract. Before examining the patient's stool, the patient needs to use a stool specimen sampling aid to collect the stool sample.

[0003] Currently, the common tools for collecting stool samples are usually a combination of a small spoon and a test tube. There are two main types of combinations: one is a small spoon with a long handle, in which the stool sample is scooped out with the spoon and then placed into the test tube, and the spoon is then discarded; the other is a small spoon with a short handle, in which the stool sample is scooped out with the spoon and then both the spoon and the sample are placed into the test tube at the same time.

[0004] Both of the above methods have their own advantages and disadvantages: using a small spoon with a long handle can reduce the risk of hands coming into contact with feces when scooping out feces, but if the scooped-out feces is more viscous, a tool is needed to scrape it off before the feces sample can be transferred to a test tube. The transfer process is difficult and can easily cause feces to get on your hands or drip onto the ground, which is both troublesome and unhygienic.

[0005] While placing the spoon and sample directly into the test tube after collecting the stool reduces the need to scrape and transfer the sample from the spoon, the length of the spoon handle becomes limited by the length of the test tube. A shorter handle requires the hand to be very close to the stool sample, increasing the risk of getting stool on the hands. Furthermore, leaving the handle in the test tube can hinder the testing personnel from retrieving the sample during subsequent analysis.

[0006] Utility model patent CN220230983U discloses a fecal sampling device. By designing a foldable shovel, the length of the shovel is not limited by the depth of the test tube. During use, the user can unfold the first and second connecting rods of the shovel to increase its length, facilitating fecal sample collection. This solves the technical problem in existing technologies where the length of the shovel used for shoveling feces is limited by the length of the test tube, preventing its design from being too long. Furthermore, a break point is provided on the first connecting rod, and a locking mechanism is provided at the opening edge of the tube body. The locking mechanism is used to engage with the break point to break the first connecting rod. While this utility model solves the problem of the long shovel handle being limited by the test tube length, it does not address the problem of leaving the shovel handle inside the test tube, which makes it difficult for inspectors to extract samples. Utility Model Content

[0007] In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a feces collection device. The length of the collection handle of this device is not limited by the height of the container, there is no need to laboriously separate the dug feces, and there is no need to worry that the collection handle remains in the container and interferes with the sampler.

[0008] To achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present utility model is: a feces collection device, including a container and a collector matching the container. An opening is provided at the top of the container, and a bayonet is provided on one side of the opening, and the bayonet communicates with the opening; the collector includes a collection spoon and a collection handle. The collection spoon is detachably connected to the collection handle. The size of the collection spoon is smaller than the size of the opening but larger than the size of the bayonet. The size of the section where the connecting part of the collection handle and the collection spoon is located is smaller than the size of the bayonet; a top cover is rotatably installed at the top of the container. The rotational connection mode between the top cover and the container is a flat rotation. The top cover closes or opens the opening and the bayonet under the action of its rotational connection with the container; a notch is provided at the edge of the top cover, and the notch faces the bayonet or错开 from the bayonet by rotating the top cover relative to the container.

[0009] Further, the sizes of other parts of the collection handle except the section where the connecting part with the collection spoon is located are all larger than the size of the bayonet.

[0010] Further, a lock block is provided at the top of the container. A lock groove is provided on the side of the lock block facing the top cover. The top cover is inserted into or disengaged from the lock groove by rotating relative to the container; a lock hole is provided on the top cover, and the lock hole is located on the same side as the notch; a lock rod is inserted at the top of the lock groove. When the top cover is inserted into the lock groove, the lock rod is aligned with the lock hole and detachably plugs the top cover by inserting into the lock hole. At this time, the top cover closes the opening and the bayonet.

[0011] Further, a threaded section is provided on the rod body of the lock rod. When the lock rod is inserted into the lock hole, the lock rod is threadedly connected to the lock block.

[0012] Further, a jack is provided at one end of the collection spoon connecting the collection handle. The size of one end of the collection handle is slightly larger than the jack. This end of the collection handle is connected to the collection spoon by inserting into the jack, and the two are connected in an interference fit.

[0013] Further, the container is a cup-shaped container, including a cup body and a cup cover. The cup cover is detachably connected to the cup body. The top cover is provided on the cup cover, the opening is provided on the cup cover, and the cup mouth of the cup body is larger than the opening.

[0014] Further, the cup cover is detachably connected to the cup body by a threaded connection.

[0015] Furthermore, the end of the collection spoon furthest from the collection handle is toothed.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0017] This invention features a detachable collection spoon and handle. After collecting feces, the handle can be separated from the spoon using a latch on the container, leaving both the spoon and the collected feces inside. The top cover then closes the container opening and latch. This design eliminates the limitation of handle length on the container height, reducing the risk of hands getting covered in feces during collection. It also avoids interference with sampling by personnel leaving the handle inside the container, and eliminates the need for laborious separation of the collected feces from other long-handled spoons.

[0029] The following specific embodiments will further illustrate the present utility model in conjunction with the above-mentioned drawings. Specific embodiments

[0030] Please refer to Figure 1-6 , in a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, a feces collection device includes a container 1 and a collector 2 that is matched with the container 1. An opening 121 is provided at the top of the container 1, and a bayonet 122 is provided on one side of the opening 121, and the bayonet 122 communicates with the opening 121; the collector 2 includes a collection spoon 21 and a collection handle 22, and the collection spoon 21 is detachably connected to the collection handle 22. In this embodiment, the collection spoon 21 and the collection handle 22 are detachably connected in the following manner: a jack 211 is provided at one end of the collection spoon 21 connected to the collection handle 22, and the size of one end of the collection handle 22 is slightly larger than the jack 211. This end of the collection handle 22 is connected to the collection spoon 21 by inserting into the jack 211, and the two are connected with an interference fit. Further, the dimension of the collection spoon 21 is smaller than the dimension of the opening 121 but larger than the dimension of the bayonet 122, and the dimension of the section where the connection part of the collection handle 22 and the collection spoon 21 is located is smaller than the dimension of the bayonet 122; a top cover 123 is rotatably installed at the top of the container 1, and the rotational connection mode between the top cover 123 and the container 1 is a flat rotation. The top cover 123 seals or opens the opening 121 and the bayonet 122 under the action of its rotational connection with the container 1; a notch 1231 is provided at the edge of the top cover 123, and the notch 1231 faces the bayonet 122 or is错开 from the bayonet 122 by rotating the top cover 123 relative to the container 1.

[0031] In use, the collection handle 22 and the collection spoon 21 are connected. Holding the collection handle 22, the collection spoon 21 is used to scoop up feces. In this embodiment, the end of the collection spoon 21 furthest from the collection handle 22 is toothed to facilitate scooping up feces. After scooping up the feces, the collection spoon 21 and the scooped feces are placed into the container 1 through the opening 121. Then, the section where the collection handle 22 and the collection spoon 21 are connected is locked into the slot 122. The top cover 123 is then rotated to cover the opening 121. At this time, the notch 1231 on the top cover 123 is directly opposite the slot 122. Due to the notch 1231, the top cover 123... The cover 123 can cover the opening 121 without interfering with the collection handle 22 located at the bayonet 122. At this time, one hand presses down on the top cover 123 and the container 1, and the other hand applies an upward force to pull out the collection handle 22. The collection spoon 21 and the collection handle 22 can be separated, leaving the collection spoon 21 and the feces in the container 1. There is no need to work hard to separate the collected feces, and there is no need to worry about the collection handle 22 remaining in the container 1 interfering with the sampling of the testing personnel. Since the top cover 123 has covered the opening 121 at this time, it can prevent the feces in the container 1 from splashing out from the opening 121 when the collection handle 22 is pulled out.

[0032] Preferably, the dimensions of the other parts of the collecting handle 22, except for the section where it connects to the collecting spoon 21, are larger than the dimensions of the latch 122. This arrangement ensures that the section where the collecting handle 22 connects to the collecting spoon 21 can be latched into the opening 121, preventing other parts of the collecting handle 22 from falling into the container 1.

[0033] Preferably, the top of the container 1 is provided with a locking block 124, and the locking block 124 has a locking groove 1241 on the side facing the top cover 123. The top cover 123 can be inserted into or disengaged from the locking groove 1241 by rotating relative to the container 1. The top cover 123 is provided with a locking hole 1232, and the locking hole 1232 and the notch 1231 are located on the same side. A locking rod 1242 is inserted into the top of the locking groove 1241. When the top cover 123 is inserted into the locking groove 1241, the locking rod 1242 is directly opposite to the locking hole 1232, and the top cover 123 can be detachably inserted by inserting into the locking hole 1232. At this time, the top cover seals the opening and the latch. When the top cover 123 rotates to cover the opening 121, the top cover 123 is not inserted into the locking groove 1241. After the collection handle 22 is pulled out, the top cover 123 is rotated again so that it covers both the opening 121 and the bayonet 122. At this time, the top cover 123 is inserted into the locking groove 1241, and the locking rod 1242 is aligned with the locking hole 1232. Then, the locking rod 1242 is inserted into the locking hole 1232 to prevent the top cover 123 from rotating. More preferably, the locking rod 1242 has a threaded section 1243 on its shaft. When the locking rod 1242 is inserted into the locking hole 1232, the locking rod 1242 is threadedly connected to the locking block 124. The threaded connection prevents the locking rod 1242 from coming out of the locking hole 1232 without human intervention, making the locking more stable.

[0034] Preferably, the container 1 is a cup-shaped container 1, including a cup body 11 and a cup lid 12. The cup lid 12 is detachably connected to the cup body 11, and a top cover 123 is disposed on the cup lid 12. The opening 121 is formed on the cup lid 12. The mouth of the cup body 11 is larger than the opening 121. When the testing personnel take samples from the cup body 11, they can choose to open only the opening 121 and take samples from the opening 121, or they can choose to remove the cup lid 12 and take samples directly from the mouth of the cup. Sampling is more convenient, and this also allows for further observation of the sample characteristics. More preferably, the cup lid 12 is detachably connected to the cup body 11 by a threaded connection. The threaded connection structure is simple and easy to use.

[0035] The above description is a detailed description of the preferred embodiments of the present utility model. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the scope of the patent application of the present utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made under the technical spirit of the present utility model should fall within the patent scope covered by the present utility model.
