Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a prostate biopsy specimen box, belonging to the technical field of medical devices. Background Technology

[0002] The prostate is an accessory gland of the male reproductive system, located between the bladder and the urogenital diaphragm, surrounding the root of the urethra. Its shape and size resemble a slightly flattened chestnut, and it can be palpated during a digital rectal examination. Prostate biopsy obtains prostate tissue and is an important method for diagnosing prostate cancer. There are two biopsy routes: perineal and transrectal. Specimens obtained from prostate biopsies usually need to be stored and transported for laboratory testing.

[0003] In the prior art, Chinese utility model patent CN210538458U discloses a prostate puncture tissue specimen storage box. This box has a pre-numbered lid corresponding to the prostate puncture site, and formalin solution is placed in the specimen slot. Collected tissue specimens can be directly placed in the corresponding slot, simplifying the operation. After collection, the specimen can be scraped off using the groove wall, preventing it from sticking to the puncture needle, facilitating single-person operation and improving efficiency. However, this storage box has the following problems: if repeated punctures are needed at a single site, the specimens obtained from each puncture can only be placed in the same slot, leading to confusion and potential contamination. Placing them in different slots makes distinguishing between sites difficult and prone to confusion, making it inconvenient to use. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a prostate puncture specimen box.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A prostate biopsy specimen box includes a box body with a plurality of placement holes. The arrangement of the placement holes on the box body is adapted to the prostate biopsy sites, such that one placement hole corresponds to one prostate biopsy site. Each placement hole contains at least two specimen bottles for storing the biopsy specimen.

[0006] The specimen bottle includes a bottle body and a rubber stopper located at the opening of the bottle body. A connecting ring is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the rubber stopper, and an identification component is provided on the connecting ring to indicate whether a specimen is stored inside the specimen bottle.

[0007] The marking component includes a first groove and a second groove sequentially formed downwards from the top surface of the connecting ring. The first groove and the second groove are connected. A marking block is slidably connected in the first groove. When the marking block slides in the first groove, it can be completely retracted into the first groove. A sliding rod is slidably connected in the second groove. The top of the sliding rod is connected to the bottom of the marking block. The bottom of the sliding rod is connected to the bottom wall of the second groove through a first spring. The sliding rod slides along with the marking block and compresses and stretches the first spring accordingly. The marking component also includes a limiting component, which can fix the marking block when it slides to be completely retracted into the first groove.

[0008] The limiting component includes a third slide groove located at the position of the second slide groove away from the rubber stopper. The third slide groove is connected to the second slide groove. A plug rod is slidably connected in the third slide groove. A plug block is provided on the end of the plug rod close to the second slide groove. The end of the plug rod away from the second slide groove extends movably out of the third slide groove and to the outside of the connecting ring. A second spring is sleeved on the rod end of the plug rod located in the third slide groove. The two ends of the second spring are respectively connected to the plug block and the corresponding side wall of the third slide groove. A plug hole is opened on the rod wall close to the third slide groove. When the marker block slides to be completely retracted into the first slide groove, the positions of the plug block and the plug hole coincide. The plug block can be inserted into the plug hole under the action of the second spring.

[0009] The plug rod has a handle at its end extending outside the connecting ring.

[0010] Each of the aforementioned placement holes contains two specimen bottles. Each specimen bottle has a first locking block and a first locking groove on the outer wall of its connecting ring. The first locking block and the first locking groove are configured to be compatible. Two specimen bottles within the same placement block are connected by the first locking block on the connecting ring of one specimen bottle into the first locking groove on the connecting ring of the other specimen bottle. Each placement hole also has a second locking block and a second locking groove on its hole wall. The second locking block and the first locking groove are configured to be compatible. Two specimen bottles within the same placement block are connected to the placement hole by the first locking block on the connecting ring of one specimen bottle into the second locking groove, and the second locking block is engaged in the first locking groove on the connecting ring of the other specimen bottle.

[0011] One of the specimen bottles has a plug-in block on the top surface of the connecting ring.

[0012] The rubber stopper has a conical opening on its top surface, with the smaller end of the conical opening facing the bottle body.

[0013] The specimen bottle is equipped with a puncture needle that can be inserted through the rubber stopper into the bottle.

[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: This invention arranges the placement holes on the box body in a manner that corresponds to the prostate puncture sites, so that one placement block corresponds to one prostate puncture site. This allows medical staff to classify and place the puncture specimens according to the puncture site, preventing confusion. At the same time, by setting at least two specimen bottles for storing puncture specimens in one placement hole, it can meet most of the needs of repeated punctures at a single site, allowing specimens obtained from repeated punctures to be placed separately. Compared with the prior art, it has the advantages of being convenient to use and having clear placement positions. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0018] Example: Please refer to Figs. 1-6This embodiment provides a prostate biopsy specimen box, including a box body 1. The box body 1 has several placement holes 2, and the arrangement of the placement holes 2 on the box body 1 is adapted to the prostate biopsy sites, ensuring that one placement hole 2 corresponds to one prostate biopsy site. In this embodiment, the number of placement holes 2 is 14, of which 12 placement holes 2 are used to meet the requirement of 12 puncture points typically required during prostate biopsy, and the remaining 2 placement holes 2 are used to accommodate any additional puncture points that may be required. Each placement hole 2 contains at least two specimen bottles 3 for storing the biopsy specimen. The specific number of specimen bottles 3 placed in each placement hole 2 can be determined according to the actual situation.

[0019] With the aforementioned setup, the arrangement of the placement holes 2 on the box body 1 is adapted to the prostate puncture sites, so that one placement block corresponds to one prostate puncture site. This allows medical staff to classify and place the puncture specimens according to the puncture site, preventing confusion. At the same time, by setting at least two specimen bottles 3 for storing puncture specimens in one placement hole 2, most needs for repeated punctures at a single site can be met. Generally, a single prostate site is punctured twice, allowing the specimens obtained from repeated punctures to be placed separately, preventing contamination due to multiple placements.

[0020] The specimen bottle 3 includes a bottle body 31 and a rubber stopper 32 disposed at the opening of the bottle body 31, which seals the opening of the bottle body 31. A puncture needle 12 can be inserted into the specimen bottle 3, passing through the rubber stopper 32 into the bottle body 31 to store the sample obtained by puncture into the specimen bottle 3. A conical opening 11 is provided on the top surface of the rubber stopper 32, with the small end of the conical opening 11 facing the bottle body 31, which facilitates the insertion of the puncture needle 12. A connecting ring 33 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the rubber stopper 32, and an identification component 4 is provided on the connecting ring 33 to indicate whether a specimen is stored in the specimen bottle 3.

[0021] The marking component 4 includes a first groove 41 and a second groove 42 sequentially opened downwards from the top surface of the connecting ring 33. The first groove 41 and the second groove 42 are connected. A marking block 43 is slidably connected in the first groove 41. The marking block 43 can slide up and down in the first groove 41 and can be completely retracted into the first groove 41 during the up and down sliding process. A sliding rod 44 is slidably connected in the second groove 42. The top of the sliding rod 44 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the marking block 43. The bottom of the sliding rod 44 is connected to the bottom wall of the second groove 42 by a first spring 45. The first spring 45 is configured such that when the first spring 45 is in its normal state, it pushes the sliding rod 44 upwards so that a part of the marking block 43 can extend outwards from the first groove 41. The slide bar 44 slides along with the marker block 43 as the marker block 43 slides, and compresses and stretches the first spring 45 accordingly. The marker assembly 4 also includes a limiting assembly 5, which can fix the marker block 43 when the marker block 43 slides to be fully retracted into the first slide groove 41.

[0022] The limiting component 5 includes a third slide groove 51 located on the side of the second slide groove 42 away from the rubber stopper 32. The third slide groove 51 is connected to the second slide groove 42. A plug rod 52 is slidably connected in the third slide groove 51. A plug block 53 is provided on the end of the plug rod 52 close to the second slide groove 42. The end of the plug rod 52 away from the second slide groove 42 is movably extended out of the third slide groove 51 and extends to the outside of the connecting ring 33. A handle 55 is provided on the end of the plug rod 52 extending to the outside of the connecting ring 33. A second spring 54 is sleeved on the rod end of the plug rod 52 located in the third slide groove 51. The two ends of the second spring 54 are fixedly connected to the plug block 53 and the corresponding side wall of the third slide groove 51, respectively. The second spring 54 is designed to provide a tendency for the plug block 53 to move closer to the second slide groove 42. The slide bar 44 has a insertion hole 46 on the side of the rod wall close to the third slide groove 51. When the marker block 43 slides to be fully retracted into the first slide groove 41, the positions of the insertion block 53 and the insertion hole 46 coincide, and the insertion block 53 can be inserted into the insertion hole 46 under the action of the second spring 54.

[0023] With the aforementioned setup, when a puncture specimen is stored in specimen bottle 3, medical personnel can press down on the marker block 43 after sample storage, causing it to slide downwards along the first groove 41. This downward movement of the marker block 43 drives the sliding rod 44 to slide downwards as well. Once the marker block 43 is fully inserted into the first groove 41, the insertion block 53, under the action of the second spring 54, enters the insertion hole 46. This fixes the marker block 43 by securing the sliding rod 44, resulting in the marker block 43 being fully retracted into the first groove 41. When medical personnel subsequently observe that the marker block 43 is fully retracted into the first groove 41, they can determine that a puncture specimen is present in specimen bottle 3. This facilitates selection when performing repeated punctures at the same location or when retrieving specimen bottles 3 containing puncture specimens. After the specimen is removed from specimen bottle 3, when the marker block 43 needs to be reset, the medical personnel pull the handle 55, causing the handle 55 to move the insertion rod 52, so that the insertion block 53 moves out of the insertion hole 46. When the insertion block 53 is completely removed from the insertion hole 46, the downward movement of the marker block 43 will compress the first spring 45. At this time, due to the disappearance of the insertion block 53, the first spring 45 can push the slide rod 44 and the marker block 43 upward by performing a reset movement, thereby realizing the reset of the marker block 43.

[0024] In this embodiment, two specimen bottles 3 are provided in each placement hole 2, and the two specimen bottles 3 are arranged vertically within the placement hole 2. Each specimen bottle 3 has a first locking block 6 and a first locking groove 7 on the outer wall of the connecting ring 33. The first locking block 6 is located on the upper outer wall of the connecting ring 33, and the first locking groove 7 is located on the lower outer wall of the connecting ring 33. The first locking block 6 and the first locking groove 7 are adapted to each other. The two specimen bottles 3 within the same placement block are connected together by the first locking block 6 on the connecting ring 33 of one specimen bottle 3 engaging with the first locking groove 7 on the connecting ring 33 of the other specimen bottle 3.

[0025] Each placement hole 2 has a second locking block 8 and a second locking groove 9 on its hole wall. The second locking block 8 is located on the lower side wall of the placement hole 2, and the second locking groove 9 is located on the upper side wall of the placement hole 2. The second locking block 8 is adapted to the first locking groove 7, and the second locking groove 9 is adapted to the first locking block 6. Two specimen bottles 3 in the same placement block are connected to the placement hole 2 by the first locking block 6 on the connecting ring 33 of one specimen bottle 3 being engaged with the second locking block 8 in the first locking groove 7 on the connecting ring 33 of the other specimen bottle 3.

[0026] With the aforementioned setup, when the two specimen bottles 3 are connected to the placement hole 2, they are interconnected through the connection of the first locking block 6 and the first locking groove 7 at corresponding positions. Then, the first locking block 6 is connected to the second locking groove 9, and the second locking block 8 is connected to the first locking groove 7, thus securing them in the placement hole 2. The two specimen bottles 3 cannot rotate within the placement hole 2, ensuring that the specimen bottles 3 do not easily wobble when the puncture needle 12 is inserted. Because a locking connection is used, the specimen bottles 3 will not be easily pulled out when the puncture needle 12 is withdrawn. However, when the puncture needle 12 is withdrawn from the specimen bottle 3, the medical personnel can gently press the top of the specimen bottle 3 to ensure that the specimen bottle 3 is not pulled out when the puncture needle 12 is withdrawn.

[0027] In order to facilitate medical personnel to remove the specimen bottle 3 from the placement hole 2, in this embodiment, a plug-in block 10 is provided on the top surface of the connecting ring 33 in one of the specimen bottles 3 in each placement hole 2. Medical personnel can use tweezers or other tools to hold the plug-in block 10 or pinch the plug-in block 10 by hand to pull the specimen bottle 3 outward.

[0028] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: First, using the locking mechanism of the first locking block 6, the first locking groove 7, the second locking block 8, and the second locking groove 9, two specimen bottles 3 are installed in the same placement hole 2. Each specimen bottle 3 is installed in this manner in each placement hole 2. Then, a biopsy of the prostate can be performed using the puncture needle 12. After the puncture is completed, the puncture needle 12 is inserted into one of the specimen bottles 3 in the corresponding placement hole 2. The obtained specimen is exposed by pushing the specimen compartment on the puncture needle 12. Pulling the puncture needle 12 out allows the exposed specimen to fall into the bottle body 31 for collection under the action of the rubber sleeve. When a specimen is placed in a specimen bottle 3, the required marking is performed by pressing the marking block 43. Repeating the aforementioned steps until the entire puncture is completed, the specimen bottle 3 containing the specimen is pulled out using the insertion / removal block 10 to perform the required testing.

[0029] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the description and drawings of this utility model, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
