Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical devices, and in particular to a disposable suction tube storage box. Background Technology

[0002] In clinical medical care, disposable suction catheters are crucial instruments for clearing respiratory secretions. Because they come into direct contact with the respiratory tract, they require stringent requirements for sterility during storage and ease of use. Currently, in clinical practice, healthcare workers typically place disposable suction catheters directly into treatment trays or ordinary containers. This means that suction catheters are often haphazardly piled up, not only occupying operating space but also increasing the risk of cross-contamination due to contact with each other, exposure to air, or contact with other items. Furthermore, the need to search for haphazardly placed suction catheters during retrieval affects the efficiency of healthcare work to some extent.

[0003] Therefore, a disposable suction catheter storage box is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a disposable suction tube storage box to achieve orderly storage and convenient access to disposable suction tubes, thereby reducing the risk of cross-contamination, saving operating space and improving the efficiency of medical and nursing work.

[0011] The fixed sleeve is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the box body, and one end of the rotating roller is fixedly installed with a rotating shaft that extends into the fixed sleeve and is coaxially arranged with the fixed sleeve;

[0012] The sliding sleeve is slidably installed inside the fixed sleeve and is movably connected to the rotating shaft, so that when the sliding sleeve slides relative to the fixed sleeve, it pulls the rotating shaft to rotate.

[0013] Furthermore, the sliding sleeve has a receiving groove, and a connecting block is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the receiving groove;

[0014] The outer wall of the rotating shaft is provided with an arc-shaped groove that matches the connecting block along its axial direction;

[0015] When the sliding sleeve slides inside the fixed sleeve, the connecting block moves synchronously along the axis of the rotating shaft to press against the inner wall of the arc-shaped groove, causing the rotating shaft to rotate.

[0016] Furthermore, the pressing and rotating assembly also includes a return spring;

[0017] The reset spring is disposed between the end face of the sliding sleeve and the outer wall of the box body, and is located inside the fixed sleeve.

[0030] The disposable suction catheter storage box of this utility model will be described in more detail below with reference to the schematic diagrams, which illustrate preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can modify the utility model described herein while still achieving the advantageous effects of this utility model. Therefore, the following description should be understood as being of general knowledge to those skilled in the art and is not intended to limit this utility model.

[0031] Furthermore, based on the teachings of this specification, those skilled in the art can form new technical solutions through cross-combination of different implementation methods without creating technical contradictions. Such variations should all be considered to fall within the protection scope of this patent.

[0032] The present invention will be described in more detail below by way of example with reference to the accompanying drawings. The advantages and features of the present invention will become clearer from the following description. It should be noted that the drawings are in a very simplified form and use non-precise proportions, and are only used to facilitate and clarify the illustration of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment proposes a disposable suction tube storage box, including a box body 1, a rotating roller 2, and a pressing and rotating assembly 3.

[0034] The top and side walls of the box body 1 are respectively provided with an inlet 11 and an outlet 12.

[0035] The rotating roller 2 is rotatably mounted inside the housing 1 and has a flat cut surface 21 for supporting a single disposable suction tube. By providing the flat cut surface 21 on the rotating roller 2, a single suction tube can be accurately supported, laying the foundation for the subsequent sequential removal of single suction tubes.

[0036] It should be noted that the dimensions of the flat section 21 match the dimensions of the disposable suction tube, so that only a single suction tube is output during rotation. In addition, the inner diameter of the box 1 also matches the dimensions of the disposable suction tube, so that multiple disposable suction tubes are placed sequentially in the box 1 from bottom to top.

[0037] The pressing and rotating assembly 3 is disposed on the outer wall of the box body 1 and is coaxially connected to the rotating roller 2 so that the rotating roller 2 can be rotated by pressing. This allows medical staff to easily drive the rotating roller 2 by pressing from outside the box body 1, achieving the purpose of convenient operation. Furthermore, by making the pressing and rotating assembly 3 coaxially connected to the rotating roller 2, the stability of the rotation process is ensured.

[0038] It should be noted that when the rotating roller 2 rotates around its axis under the drive of the pressing and rotating assembly 3, the flat surface 21 can switch from the initial state facing the inlet 11 to the discharge state facing the outlet 12, so as to realize the directional transfer of the suction tube from the inside of the box 1 to the outside of the box 1.

[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, when the pressing and rotating component 3 moves along the Va direction, the rotating roller 2 can rotate along the Vb direction, thereby completing the switching of the position of the flat surface 21 to complete the output operation of the suction tube.

[0040] This device includes a disposable suction tube storage box comprising a box body 1, a rotating roller 2, and a pressing and rotating assembly 3. The box body 1 has an inlet 11 and an outlet 12 on its top and side walls, respectively. The rotating roller 2 has a flat cut surface 21 that can support a single disposable suction tube. The pressing and rotating assembly 3 is coaxially connected to the rotating roller 2, and the rotating roller 2 is controlled to rotate by pressing. This allows the suction tube to be placed onto the flat cut surface 21 of the rotating roller 2 through the inlet 11. After pressing, the rotating roller 2 can rotate the flat cut surface 21 to face the outlet 12, thereby achieving orderly storage and single-tube directional transport of the suction tubes in the box body 1. This avoids cross-contamination caused by random stacking of suction tubes and improves the convenience of use, thus meeting the standardized requirements for the storage and use of suction tubes in clinical practice.

[0041] In this embodiment, a specific pressing and rotating component 3 is proposed to improve the rotation control effect of the rotating roller 2.

[0042] Specifically, the pressing and rotating assembly 3 includes a fixed sleeve 31 and a sliding sleeve 32.

[0043] The fixed sleeve 31 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the box body 1, and one end of the rotating roller 2 is fixedly installed with a rotating shaft 4 that extends into the fixed sleeve 31 and is coaxially arranged with the fixed sleeve 31.

[0044] Furthermore, the sliding sleeve 32 is slidably installed inside the fixed sleeve 31 and is movably connected to the rotating shaft 4, so that when the sliding sleeve 32 slides relative to the fixed sleeve 31, it pulls the rotating shaft 4 to rotate.

[0045] Specifically, the sliding sleeve 32 has a receiving groove, and a connecting block 5 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the receiving groove. The outer wall of the rotating shaft 4 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 41 that matches the connecting block 5 along its axial direction. This allows the sliding sleeve 32 to slide inside the fixed sleeve 31 (i.e.,...). Figure 4 In the direction of Va), the connecting block 5 moves synchronously along the axis of the rotating shaft 4 to press the inner wall of the arc-shaped groove 41, causing the rotating shaft 4 to rotate (i.e., along Va direction). Figure 4 (rotating in the Vb direction), correspondingly, the rotation control of the rotating roller 2 is completed.

[0046] In a further embodiment, in order to facilitate the reset and rebound of the sliding sleeve 32 after pressing, so that the rotating roller 2 can be reset to its original position, thereby allowing the flat surface 21 to carry the next suction tube again for subsequent reuse, the pressing and rotating assembly 3 is further defined here.

[0047] Specifically, the pressing and rotating assembly 3 also includes a return spring 33.

[0048] The reset spring 33 is disposed between the end face of the sliding sleeve 32 and the outer wall of the box body 1, and is located inside the fixed sleeve 31. This allows the reset spring 33 to automatically push the sliding sleeve 32 back to its original position when the sliding sleeve 32 is pressed to complete the output of the suction tube and is not subjected to external force. This eliminates the need for manual adjustment, facilitates the next operation, and improves the convenience of continuous use.

[0049] It should be noted that the outer wall of the sliding sleeve 32 is provided with a limiting block 321, and the inner wall of the fixed sleeve 31 is provided with a limiting groove that matches the limiting block 321. This ensures that the sliding sleeve 32 moves only along the axis and does not rotate relative to the fixed sleeve 31. This ensures that the connecting block 5 and the inner wall of the arc groove 41 are always in a state of compression, thus ensuring the driving control effect on the rotating shaft 4.

[0050] In one embodiment, the inner wall of the discharge port 12 is inclined, so that the suction tube can be quickly detached from the box 1 under the action of the inclined surface, and no jamming will occur.

[0051] Furthermore, the top of the box body 1 is detachably provided with a cover plate 6 for closing the feed port 11.

[0052] In other embodiments, the box 1 is configured as an adsorption wall-mounted box, which can be fixed to the wall or other locations to save desktop / treatment tray space, while also making it easy for medical staff to access at any time, improving space utilization and ease of operation.

[0053] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
