A coupling agent bottle smearing joint

Abstract

This utility model discloses a coupling agent bottle spreading connector, belonging to the field of medical device technology. It includes a coupling agent container bottle, a base, and a spreading component. The base is located at the bottle mouth end of the coupling agent container bottle, and a chamber is provided at the bottom end of the base. The spreading component is located above the base and is horizontally positioned. The spreading component is provided with a liquid outlet groove, which is connected to the chamber inside the base and the interior of the coupling agent container bottle. After the coupling agent in the coupling agent container bottle is squeezed onto the skin area to be examined, the medical staff holds the coupling agent bottle with one hand and moves it back and forth in the skin examination area. This moves the front end of the spreading component back and forth on the skin surface, thereby spreading the coupling agent squeezed onto the skin surface. This ensures that the coupling agent on the skin surface to be examined is evenly distributed on the skin surface, so that the ultrasound image displayed during the ultrasound examination is clearer.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a coupling agent bottle spreading connector. Background Technology

[0002] Before an ultrasound examination, medical staff apply a coupling agent to the patient's skin to help transmit ultrasound signals. This medical coupling agent mainly consists of glycerin, carbomer, and purified water; it is a gel-like preparation, but it can condense into a watery form when the skin temperature is high. The medical coupling agent has an acoustic impedance similar to that of human skin and soft tissue, eliminating air between the ultrasound probe and the skin, preventing air from affecting the clarity of the ultrasound image. Additionally, the coupling agent acts as a lubricant, reducing friction and facilitating the flexible operation of the ultrasound probe.

[0003] When using medical coupling agent, medical staff apply the coupling agent to the skin surface of the patient to be examined. The medical staff squeezes the bottle containing the coupling agent to squeeze the coupling agent from the bottle opening onto the patient's skin surface. Then, the medical staff holds the ultrasound probe and uses the tip of the ultrasound probe to squeeze and push the coupling agent that has fallen on the skin to achieve even spreading.

[0004] However, the contact area between the tip of the ultrasound probe and the skin surface is limited. It is difficult to achieve a good spreading effect by simply using the tip of the ultrasound probe to drive away the coupling agent. At the same time, when the tip of the ultrasound probe moves on the skin surface with the coupling agent applied, the coupling agent on the skin is also very easy to move up along the smooth surface of the ultrasound probe tip and accumulate around the ultrasound probe. This results in uneven application of the coupling agent and the thickness does not meet the requirements of ultrasound examination, thus affecting the clarity of the ultrasound image. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides a coupling agent bottle spreading connector to solve the aforementioned technical problems.

[0006] The present invention adopts the following technical solution: it includes a coupling agent container bottle, a base, and an applicator. The base is located at the bottle mouth end of the coupling agent container bottle. A chamber is provided at the bottom end of the base, which is connected to the interior of the coupling agent container bottle. The applicator is located above the base. The applicator is horizontal and rectangular in shape. A liquid outlet groove is provided on the applicator, which is connected to the chamber inside the base and the interior of the coupling agent container bottle.

[0007] Preferably, a connector is provided between the base and the coupling agent container bottle. The bottom of the connector is provided with an opening for fitting onto the outside of the bottle mouth end of the coupling agent container bottle. The inner wall of the opening is provided with an internal thread. The outside of the bottle mouth end of the coupling agent container bottle is provided with an external thread that mates with the internal thread on the connector. The top of the connector is inserted into the cavity in the base. The base is installed on the bottle mouth end of the coupling agent container bottle through the connector.

[0008] Preferably, the connector is provided with a drainage groove for the coupling agent in the coupling agent container to drain out, which can prevent a large amount of coupling agent from being discharged directly from the bottle mouth of the coupling agent container into the cavity provided on the base, and play a buffering role to prevent a large amount of coupling agent from being sprayed directly from the coating part on the base.

[0009] Preferably, an annular silicone ring is provided on the inner wall of the cavity of the base, and the outer wall of the annular silicone ring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cavity. The end of the connector that is inserted into the cavity at the bottom of the base is provided with a slot for the annular silicone ring to be embedded. The cooperation between the annular silicone ring and the slot makes the process of installing the base to the connector more convenient.

[0010] Preferably, the front end of the applicator is symmetrically provided with two flexible scrapers, which are horizontally positioned, and the bottom of each flexible scraper is fixedly provided with an elastic retaining strip. The front end of the applicator is provided with slots on both sides of the liquid outlet groove for the corresponding retaining strip to be inserted. The two flexible scrapers can prevent the front end of the applicator from directly contacting the examinee's skin surface, thus improving hygiene and safety. At the same time, the flexible scrapers are more convenient to replace.

[0011] The above-mentioned technical solutions adopted in the embodiments of this utility model can achieve the following beneficial effects:

[0012] After squeezing the coupling agent from the coupling agent container onto the skin area to be examined, the medical staff holds the coupling agent container with one hand and moves it back and forth on the skin surface. This moves the tip of the applicator back and forth on the skin surface, spreading the coupling agent evenly on the skin surface, so that the ultrasound image displayed during the ultrasound examination is clearer.

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with specific embodiments and corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0023] The technical solutions provided by the various embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] This utility model embodiment provides a coupling agent bottle spreading connector, including a coupling agent holding bottle 1, a base 2, and a spreading component 3. The base 2 is located at the bottle mouth end of the coupling agent holding bottle 1, and a chamber 21 is provided at the bottom end of the base 2. The chamber 21 is connected to the interior of the coupling agent holding bottle 1. The spreading component 3 is located above the base 2. The spreading component 3 is horizontal and rectangular in shape. A liquid outlet groove 31 is provided on the spreading component 3. The liquid outlet groove 31 is connected to the chamber 21 inside the base 2 and the interior of the coupling agent holding bottle 1.

[0025] The bottom end of the base 2 is movably connected to the mouth end of the coupling agent container 1, allowing the applicator 3 on the base 2 to be quickly attached and detached from the mouth end of the coupling agent container 1. The coupling agent container 1 can be used to hold the medical coupling agent applied during B-ultrasound. When using the device, the medical staff holds the body of the coupling agent container 1 and squeezes it to discharge the coupling agent from the mouth end. The coupling agent discharged from the mouth end enters the chamber 21 inside the base 2. The applicator 3 has a liquid outlet. Therefore, the coupling agent entering the chamber 21 of the base 2 will gradually flow into the outlet 31 of the applicator 3, and be discharged from the outlet 31 to the skin area to be examined by the examinee. After the coupling agent falls on the skin, when the medical staff holds the coupling agent container 1 and moves it back and forth above the examinee's skin, it will drive the applicator 3 to move back and forth on the examinee's skin surface, thereby evenly applying the coupling agent that has fallen on the skin surface, so that the thickness of the coupling agent on the skin area to be examined by the examinee meets the standard for ultrasound examination, so that the ultrasound image is clearer.

[0026] In a further embodiment, a connector 4 is provided between the base 2 and the coupling agent container 1. The bottom of the connector 4 is provided with an opening 41 for fitting onto the outside of the bottle mouth end of the coupling agent container 1. The inner wall of the opening 41 is provided with an internal thread 42. The outside of the bottle mouth end of the coupling agent container 1 is provided with an external thread 11 that cooperates with the internal thread 42 provided on the connector 4. The top of the connector 4 is inserted into the cavity 21 in the base 2.

[0027] The opening 41 at the bottom of the connector 4 is fitted onto the mouth of the coupling agent container 1. By rotating the connector 4, the internal thread 42 in the opening 41 is threadedly connected to the external thread 11 at the mouth of the coupling agent container 1. After the connector 4 is installed onto the mouth of the coupling agent container 1, the chamber 21 at the bottom of the base 2 is inserted into the top of the connector 4. The base 2 is then installed onto the mouth of the coupling agent container 1 through the connector 4.

[0028] In a further embodiment, the connector 4 is provided with a drainage groove 43 for the discharge of coupling agent from the coupling agent container bottle 1;

[0029] When the body of the coupling agent container bottle 1 is squeezed, the coupling agent in the coupling agent container bottle 1 will be discharged from the bottle mouth end into the connector 4, and then flow into the chamber 21 on the base 2 from the drainage groove 43 provided in the connector 4. This can prevent a large amount of coupling agent from being discharged directly from the bottle mouth end of the coupling agent container bottle 1 into the chamber 21 provided on the base 2, and play a buffering role, which can prevent a large amount of coupling agent from being sprayed directly from the applicator 3 on the base 2.

[0030] In a further embodiment, an annular silicone ring 22 is provided on the inner wall of the cavity 21 in the base 2, and the outer wall of the annular silicone ring 22 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cavity 21. The end of the connector 4 inserted into the cavity 21 at the bottom of the base 2 is provided with a slot 44 for the annular silicone ring 22 to be embedded.

[0031] When the cavity 21 at the bottom of the base 2 is fitted onto the top of the connector 4, the annular silicone ring 22 on the inner wall of the cavity 21 will be embedded in the slot 44 on the outside of the connector 4. The cooperation between the annular silicone ring 22 and the slot 44 makes the installation of the base 2 onto the connector 4 more convenient.

[0032] In a further embodiment, the front end of the applicator 3 is symmetrically provided with two flexible scrapers 32, the two flexible scrapers 32 are in a horizontal state, and the bottom of the two flexible scrapers 32 is fixedly provided with elastic clips 33. The front end of the applicator 3 is provided with slots on both sides of the liquid outlet groove 31 for the corresponding clips 33 to be inserted.

[0033] When applying the coupling agent to the skin surface using the applicator 3, the two flexible scrapers 32 can be used to drive away and spread the coupling agent evenly, avoiding direct contact between the applicator 3 and the patient's skin. At the same time, by setting a slot at the front end of the applicator 3, the retaining strip 33 at the bottom of the flexible scraper 32 can be quickly inserted into the slot. After the two flexible scrapers 32 have finished applying the coupling agent, they can be directly removed from the front end of the applicator 3 and replaced with new flexible scrapers 32, improving the hygiene of the entire coupling agent container bottle 1 during use.

[0034] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principle of this utility model should be included within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
