Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and more specifically, to a cleaning device for clinical use in the ear, nose, and throat. Background Technology
[0002] A nasal irrigator is a tool used to clean the nasal cavity. It uses various pressure methods to deliver saline solution into the nostrils, through the nasal vestibule and nasopharynx, and finally out through the other nostril or mouth. This process, utilizing the bactericidal effect of the saline solution and the force of the water flow, effectively removes pathogens and dirt from the nasal cavity, restoring the normal physiological environment and self-cleaning function of the nasal cavity, thereby protecting nasal health.
[0003] If a nasal irrigator is not thoroughly cleaned and disinfected after use, the next user may be contaminated with pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, or fungi remaining on the device, significantly increasing the risk of cross-infection. Nasal irrigators come into direct contact with the nasal mucosa and secretions during use, which may contain various pathogens. When multiple users share an improperly treated nasal irrigator, pathogens from the previous user can be transmitted to the next user, posing an unnecessary health threat. Utility Model Content

[0005] A clinical cleaning device for the ear, nose, and throat includes a cleaning device body, a cleaning column, a protective cover, a first rubber ring, a second rubber ring, a fixing ring, and a disinfection component. The cleaning column is connected to the right side of the cleaning device body, and the protective cover is slidably connected to the outer wall of the cleaning column. The first rubber ring is connected to the side of the protective cover near the cleaning device body. The second rubber ring and the fixing ring are connected to the right side of the cleaning device body, and the disinfection component is connected to the fixing ring.
[0006] To further explain, it also includes guide blocks. At least one guide block is provided at circumferential intervals on the outer wall of the cleaning column, and the protective cover is slidably connected to the guide block.
[0007] To further explain, the disinfection assembly includes a disinfection box, a water inlet pipe, a water pump, a hose, a nozzle, and a sliding rod. The disinfection box is connected to a fixing ring, and the water inlet pipe and water pump are connected to the disinfection box. One end of the water pump is connected to a hose. At least two sliding rods are slidably connected inside the cleaner body. The end of the sliding rod near the cleaning column is connected to a nozzle, and the hose is connected to the nozzle.
[0008] To further explain, the disinfection component also includes a first anti-slip ring, which is connected to the outer wall of the nozzle.
[0009] To further explain, the disinfection component also includes elastic elements, and elastic elements are connected between the sliding rod and the cleaner body.
[0010] To further explain, it also includes a second anti-slip ring, which is connected to the outer wall of the cleaner body.
[0011] The beneficial effects are as follows: This utility model is equipped with a protective cover and a guide block. The protective cover can protect the cleaning column and prevent the cleaning column from contacting the nasal cavity and being infected. The protective cover can, to a certain extent, prevent pathogens from the previous user from remaining on the nozzle, thereby reducing the possibility of cross-infection for the next user. It can also prevent external dust, bacteria and other pollutants from directly contacting the nozzle and reduce the risk of contamination when not in use. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0017] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, but this does not limit the scope of protection and application of the present invention.
[0018] A clinical ear, nose, and throat cleaner, such as Figures 1-4As shown, the device includes a cleaner body 1, a cleaning column 2, a protective cover 3, a guide block 4, a first rubber ring 5, a second rubber ring 6, a fixing ring 7, a disinfection component, and a second anti-slip ring 16. The cleaning column 2 is fixedly connected to the right side of the cleaner body 1. The protective cover 3 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the cleaning column 2. Four guide blocks 4 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cleaning column 2 at circumferential intervals. The protective cover 3 is slidably connected to the guide blocks 4. The first rubber ring 5 is fixedly connected to the side of the protective cover 3 closest to the cleaner body 1. The second rubber ring 6 and the fixing ring 7 are fixedly connected to the right side of the cleaner body 1. The inner diameter of the second rubber ring 6 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first rubber ring 5. The first rubber ring 5 is located inside the second rubber ring 6. The disinfection component is connected to the fixing ring 7. The second anti-slip ring 16 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cleaner body 1. The second anti-slip ring 16 can increase the friction between the hand and the cleaner body 1 and prevent slippage when holding the cleaner body 1.
[0019] When using the cleaner, hold the cleaner body 1 and insert the cleaning column 2 into the nasal cavity. Water is drained into the cleaning column 2 through the cleaner body 1 and then sprayed out from the cleaning column 2, thus rinsing and cleaning the nasal cavity. The protective cover 3 protects the cleaning column 2, preventing it from coming into contact with the nasal cavity and causing infection. The protective cover 3 can also prevent pathogens from the previous user from remaining on the nozzle 12, thereby reducing the possibility of cross-infection for the next user. It can also prevent external dust, bacteria and other pollutants from directly contacting the nozzle 12, reducing the risk of contamination when not in use. When the protective cover 3 needs to be replaced, hold the protective cover 3 and slide it away from the cleaner body 1 along the guide block 4. Then slide the new protective cover 3 back towards the cleaner body 1 along the guide block 4 in the opposite direction, so that the first rubber ring 5 is located inside the second rubber ring 6, thereby fixing the protective cover 3 and improving its stability. The guide block 4 can limit the position of the protective cover 3, preventing it from blocking the nozzles on the cleaning column 2 and ensuring that the opening of the protective cover 3 is aligned with the nozzles on the cleaning column 2.
[0020] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the disinfection assembly includes a disinfection box 8, a water inlet pipe 9, a water pump 10, a hose 11, a nozzle 12, a sliding rod 13, an elastic element 14, and a first anti-slip ring 15. The top of the fixed ring 7 is fixedly connected to the disinfection box 8, the top of the disinfection box 8 is fixedly connected to the water inlet pipe 9, the right side of the disinfection box 8 is fixedly connected to the water pump 10, the drain end of the water pump 10 is fixedly connected to the hose 11, and the water pump 10 is connected to the water inlet of the disinfection box 8. Two sliding rods 13 are slidably connected inside the cleaner body 1. The end of the sliding rod 13 near the cleaning column 2 is fixedly connected to the annular nozzle 12. The hose 11 is connected to the nozzle 12. The sliding rods 13 and the cleaner body 1 are both fixedly connected to the elastic element 14, which is set as a spiral spring. The outer wall of the nozzle 12 is fixedly connected to the first anti-slip ring 15. The first anti-slip ring 15 can increase the friction between the hand and the nozzle 12 and prevent slipping when holding the nozzle 12.
[0021] When cleaning the cleaning column 2 and protective cover 3 is required, the water pump 10 is used to input the disinfectant solution in the disinfection tank 8 into the nozzle 12 through the hose 11. Then, the cleaning column 2 and protective cover 3 are cleaned and disinfected through the nozzle 12. Hold the nozzle 12 by hand and slide it away from the cleaner body 1. The sliding rod 13 also slides away from the cleaner body 1, and the elastic element 14 is stretched. After cleaning, release the nozzle 12, and the elastic element 14 returns to its original state. Under the elastic force of the elastic element 14, the sliding rod 13 slides back to its original position. This reduces the complexity of manual cleaning for users and ensures that the nozzle 12 is effectively cleaned before and after each use, thereby greatly reducing the risk of cross-infection and protecting the health of users.
[0022] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
