[0026] This application can be used in the field of nutrient solution delivery technology, or in other fields applicable to this application.

[0027] Example 2 refer to Figure 2 , 3 4. Improvement based on Example 1: A device for measuring the temperature of tube feeding solution for enteral feeding patients, which is applied to the field of nutrient solution delivery technology. To improve sealing, multiple sealing rings 20 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the sealing seat 18.

[0030] To improve the occlusal fixation effect of the fixation part 3, multiple occlusal grooves 6 are provided on the outer wall of the occlusal tube 4 to facilitate the occlusal fixation of the fixation part 3 by the patient.

[0031] The usage process and working principle of this utility model technical solution are as follows: Before use, medical staff need to ensure that all equipment and components used subsequently have been properly disinfected. During use, medical staff first connect the two ends of the movable part 1 to the infusion tubing 2 to be used. Then, the user can install the thermometer 16 on the movable part 1. When installing the thermometer 16, medical staff need to pull the slider 13 backward to ensure that the limiting rod 12 does not obstruct one end opening of the installation tube 22. Next, the user can hold the mounting base 17 to ensure that the two positioning holes 21 are aligned with the two limiting rods 12. Then, the user can insert the sealing seat 18 into the installation tube 22 until it is installed. The bottom of the mounting base 17 should be tightly attached to one end of the mounting tube 22; after the sealing base 18 is installed, its multiple sealing rings 20 on its outer wall will be tightly attached to the inner wall of the mounting tube 22, ensuring that the liquid in the moving part 1 will not easily leak. At the same time, the temperature probe 19 is located inside the moving part 1, and together with the thermometer 16, it can detect the temperature of the nutrient solution flowing through the moving part 1. The detection result can be displayed in real time on the display screen of the thermometer 16; after the thermometer 16 is installed, the user can stop pulling the slider 13. At this time, the slider 13 will return to its original position under the action of the tension spring 14, and one end of the two limit rods 12 will also... The device abuts against the outer wall of the mounting base 17. Slightly rotate and adjust the position of the mounting base 17 to ensure that the two limiting rods 12 can be inserted into the corresponding positioning holes 21, further securing the thermometer 16 and preventing it from easily falling off. Afterward, the user can connect the infusion tube 2 at one end of the third connecting flange 10 to the nutrient solution supply equipment. Simultaneously, the infusion tube 2 at one end of the second connecting flange 9 can pass through the fixing part 3 and extend into the patient's mouth. During operation, medical personnel should ensure that the patient's mouth is properly engaged with the fixing part 3 and that one end of the infusion tube 2 can be gradually moved into the patient's mouth. The operation of this part is well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here. When the infusion tube 2 is inserted, the moving part 1 will gradually approach the fixed part 3. Finally, under the action of multiple magnets 7 on one side of the fixed part 3, the magnetic connection and adsorption between the moving part 1 and the fixed part 3 can be completed. After the infusion tube 2 has moved, the medical staff can start to deliver the nutrient solution. The thermometer 16 can monitor and display the temperature of the nutrient solution flowing through the moving part 1 in real time. At this time, the medical staff can make appropriate adjustments to the temperature of the nutrient solution by using the value displayed by the thermometer 16 to ensure that the patient's nutrient solution is well absorbed.
