Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of instrument cleaning technology, specifically to an instrument cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] Instrument cleaning is a crucial step in ensuring instrument performance and hygiene safety. It removes various contaminants adhering to the surface and interior of instruments to meet specified cleanliness standards, thus guaranteeing performance and safe use. For complex and delicate instruments, manual cleaning is often used. Using soft brushes, sponges, and suitable cleaning solutions, each part of the instrument is carefully scrubbed to ensure thorough removal of dirt. This method effectively removes dirt from instrument surfaces and crevices, but it is inefficient and may result in incomplete cleaning. In existing technologies, to prevent products from sticking together during cleaning, they are usually manually turned over in acid solution. This is not only ineffective but also labor-intensive and inconvenient. Therefore, we propose an instrument cleaning device. Utility Model Content
