[0002] With the development of surgical techniques, medical reusable drills, with their accurate positioning and ease of operation, are widely used in orthopedic, neurosurgical, and thoracic surgery fields. Cleaning reusable orthopedic drills requires enzyme washing, brushing, rinsing, and terminal rinsing. These steps are based on the standard cleaning process for reusable medical devices to ensure thorough removal of contaminants and residues. Currently, most sterilization supply centers use manual cleaning methods to process reusable drills, using a brush to scrub the surface and cotton swabs to repeatedly wipe the inside of the chuck. This cleaning method requires one hand to hold the drill body while the other hand performs the cleaning operation. Manual wiping has a relatively light pressure, a limited wiping area, and the entire process takes a long time. Manual cleaning is inefficient and time-consuming. Utility Model Content

[0018] Please see Figure 1-5This utility model discloses a bottom-fixed cleaning brush for electric drills, including a cleaning box 1. The interior of the cleaning box 1 is fixedly connected with partitions 102 at equal intervals along the horizontal direction. The partitions 102 divide the interior of the cleaning box 1 into several cleaning chambers 101 of the same size. An installation groove 104 is provided in the center of the bottom of the inner wall of the cleaning chamber 101. A base structure 4 is detachably installed inside the installation groove 104. A cleaning component is provided on the upper surface of the base structure 4. A flip cover 103 is hinged to the top of the cleaning box 1 at the position corresponding to the cleaning chamber 101.
[0019] Considering that the cleaning of orthopedic medical reusable electric drills requires four steps: enzyme washing, brushing, rinsing and final rinsing, in a preferred embodiment, there are a total of three partitions 102. The three partitions 102 divide the interior of the cleaning box 1 into four cleaning chambers 101 of the same size. Each cleaning chamber 101 corresponds to the enzyme washing, brushing, rinsing and final rinsing of the electric drill.
[0020] In this embodiment, the base structure 4 includes a fixing plate 401. The fixing plate 401 has slots 404 on both the left and right sides. The inner wall of the mounting groove 104 and the position corresponding to the slot 404 are provided with a first sliding groove 105. One end of the inner wall of the first sliding groove 105 is fixedly connected to a spring 8, and the other end of the spring 8 is fixedly connected to a locking block 7. The locking block 7 is movably inserted into the inside of the slot 404.
[0021] The above technical solution provides a specific, reliable and relatively easy-to-operate detachable connection method. Through the cooperation of the locking block 7 driven by the spring 8 and the slot 404, the base structure 4 can be quickly locked and unlocked in the mounting slot 104, ensuring the stability of the base and cleaning components during the cleaning process. At the same time, when maintenance, replacement of cleaning components or cleaning of the cleaning chamber 101 are required, the base structure 4 can be quickly disassembled, improving the practicality and maintenance convenience of the device.
[0022] In this embodiment, the cleaning assembly includes a vertical brush 6 and two movable plates 5. The vertical brush 6 is fixedly connected to the center of the upper surface of the fixed plate 401, and the two movable plates 5 are slidably connected to both sides of the upper surface of the fixed plate 401. Brush bristles 501 are fixedly connected to the side of the two movable plates 5 that are close to each other.
[0023] The fixed vertical brush 6 allows the drill bit to be inserted stably, facilitating the cleaning of the inside of the electric drill bit. The two movable plates 5 with brush bristles 501 can move relative to each other, allowing the brush bristles 501 to adapt to different sizes or shapes of the electric drill shaft, chuck, or housing contours, more tightly wrapping or clamping the electric drill, achieving a larger area and more effective contact cleaning, and in particular solving the problem of difficulty in manually cleaning the inside of the chuck in the prior art.
[0024] In this embodiment, two lead screw grooves are provided on the left side of the upper surface of the fixed plate 401, and two second sliding grooves 403 are provided on the right side of the upper surface of the fixed plate 401. A double-ended lead screw 9 is rotatably connected between the two lead screw grooves. Lead screw nuts 502 and sliders are fixedly connected to both sides of the lower surface of the movable plate 5, respectively. Lead screw nuts 502 are threadedly connected to the double-ended lead screw 9, and sliders are slidably connected inside the second sliding grooves 403. A connecting groove 402 is provided on the front of the seat corresponding to the position of the double-ended lead screw 9. A knob 3 is rotatably connected on the front of the cleaning tank 1 corresponding to the position of the connecting groove 402. The knob 3 includes a rotating rod 301 and a connecting head 302. The connecting head 302 extends into the interior of the connecting groove 402 and is fixedly connected to one end of the double-ended lead screw 9.
[0025] Users only need to turn the connector 302 to control the double-ended lead screw 9 to rotate. Through the cooperation of the left and right threads and the lead screw nut 502, the two movable plates 5 can be driven to move towards each other or away from each other at the same speed. The width between the bristles 501 on both sides can be easily adjusted to precisely adapt to the drill rod or chuck of different diameters, ensuring the cleaning effect. This greatly simplifies the operation steps, improves efficiency, and ensures the consistency of clamping force.
[0026] In this embodiment, a water leakage hole is provided on the back of the cleaning tank 1 at the position corresponding to the bottom of the cleaning chamber 101, and a sealing plug 2 is movably inserted into the water leakage hole.
[0027] The above technical solution provides an independent and controllable drainage channel for each cleaning chamber 101. During different steps in the cleaning process, the sealing plug 2 of the corresponding cleaning chamber 101 can be easily removed to drain the water, thereby achieving separate treatment of cleaning waste liquid and rinsing waste liquid, avoiding cross-contamination, and facilitating the cleaning and maintenance of the cleaning tank 1.
[0028] 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.
