Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of endoscope cleaning technology, specifically to an auxiliary mechanism for an endoscope cleaning machine. Background Technology

[0002] The cleaning and disinfection of flexible endoscopes (hereinafter referred to as endoscopes) requires automated and mechanized methods to replace manual pretreatment and manual brushing of the endoscope lumen. The issue of removing contaminants and microorganisms from the lumen of flexible endoscopes, especially during manual brushing, is one of the most significant challenges encountered in the automated implementation of endoscope cleaning and disinfection, and it is also the most critical step in achieving unmanned and automated endoscope cleaning. When using automated mechanical structures to drive brushes to clean the endoscope lumen, it is crucial to ensure that the brushes do not derail during the driving process, which could lead to automatic brushing failure, reduced user compliance, and eventual termination of the automated cleaning system. Therefore, designing and implementing a sophisticated brush drive and auxiliary mechanisms is extremely important. In addition, various microorganisms and blood and other human tissue contaminants are the main sources of contamination in the endoscope lumen. These contaminants need to be thoroughly cleaned, removed and sterilized before reusing endoscopic instruments. Moreover, the auxiliary structures used for unmanned and automated endoscope cleaning are mostly mechanical structures, such as the mechanical structure of the actuator. After cleaning the endoscope, these structures need to be cleaned and sterilized at the same time, or cleaned and sterilized without load. If the auxiliary mechanical tools and structures used during cleaning are not thoroughly cleaned and sterilized, there is a risk of nosocomial infection during the reuse of medical device cleaning.

[0003] Existing endoscope cleaning equipment has the following drawbacks:

[0004] Current endoscopes require manual cleaning, resulting in low cleaning efficiency and incomplete cleaning. Therefore, a solution is needed. Utility Model Content
