Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical disinfection equipment technology, and in particular to a disinfection cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] A TEE (Transesophageal Echocardiography) probe is a high-precision medical device specifically designed for examining the structures of the heart and major blood vessels. The insertion of the TEE probe into the esophagus is similar to that of an electronic gastroscopy. Once safely inserted, the probe's depth within the esophagus is adjusted by advancing, retreating, rotating, and bending forward, backward, left, and right, allowing for the examination of the heart and major blood vessel structures from superficial to deep.

[0003] The TEE probe is equipped with a dedicated vertical disinfection cabinet. When in use, the probe is suspended above the disinfection chamber by the handle end, with the probe tip hanging inside. However, due to the large length of the TEE probe, the probe tip is prone to swaying and touching the disinfection chamber wall when the probe is installed into or removed from the disinfection chamber. This may pose a risk of contact infection and may also cause damage to the probe tip. Therefore, improvements are urgently needed. Utility Model Content

[0031] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This utility model proposes a disinfection cabinet 100, including a cabinet body 10, a cabinet door 20, a hanging structure 30, and a limiting member 40. The front side of the cabinet body 10 is recessed with a disinfection chamber 11, which extends vertically. The cabinet door 20 is hinged to the front side of the cabinet body 10 and covers the disinfection chamber 11 when closed. The hanging structure 30 is installed on the top wall of the disinfection chamber 11. The limiting member 40 is installed on the wall of the disinfection chamber 11 and is vertically opposite to the hanging structure 30. The limiting member 40 is used to limit the range of movement of the medical device 200 installed in the disinfection chamber 11 in its circumferential direction.

[0032] In the technical solution of this utility model, during the use of the disinfection cabinet 100, after opening the cabinet door 20, the medical device 200 can be hung on the suspension structure 30, so that its probe hangs in the disinfection chamber 11. The suspension structure 30 is provided with a limiting member 40 in the vertical direction. By using the limiting member 40 to restrict the movement of the probe, it is possible to prevent the probe from contacting the wall of the disinfection chamber during the removal or installation process, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the probe during the disinfection process, and at the same time preventing the problem of infection from contact between the probe and the wall of the disinfection chamber. In some embodiments, the disinfection cabinet 100 disinfects with a disinfection lamp 50. In this way, the suspension structure 30, through the limiting member 40, limits the end of the medical probe to a position close to the center line of the disinfection chamber 11, so that it can be fully irradiated by ultraviolet light and achieve comprehensive disinfection.

[0033] The limiting member 40 can be implemented in various ways. It can be sleeve-shaped, plate-shaped, cone-shaped, etc., and can be connected to the side wall or bottom wall of the disinfection chamber 11. The limiting member 40 can be made of plastic, metal, or glass, and can be integrally formed onto the wall of the disinfection chamber 11, or it can be welded, bonded, or otherwise attached. Preferably, in some embodiments of this invention, one side of the limiting member 40 is detachably connected to the wall of the disinfection chamber 11. This design facilitates the removal of the limiting member 40 for separate cleaning and disinfection.

[0034] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this utility model, the limiting member 40 includes a connecting plate 41 and a limiting plate 42 connected together. The connecting plate 41 is detachably connected to the wall of the disinfection chamber 11, and the limiting plate 42 has a limiting opening 421 for the medical device 200 to pass through and for limiting the circumferential movement of the medical device 200. This can effectively limit the probe while avoiding excessive obstruction of the probe, thus not affecting the disinfection effect.

[0035] There are various specific implementations for the detachable connection of the connecting plate 41 to the wall of the disinfection chamber 11. These can include snap-fit, plug-in, or fixation via vacuum suction cups or fasteners. In some embodiments of this invention, the connecting plate 41 is magnetically fixed to the wall of the disinfection chamber 11. This allows for quick installation and removal of the connecting plate 41, improving operational convenience.

[0036] Specifically, in some embodiments of this utility model, the connecting plate 41 includes a plate body 411 and a plurality of magnets 412. One side of the plate body 411 is connected to the side of the limiting plate 42, and the plurality of magnets 412 are spaced apart on the other side of the plate body 411. The spaced-apart installation of the plurality of magnets 412 on the other side of the plate body 411 provides a more uniform magnetic force distribution, ensuring a firm adsorption between the connecting plate 41 and the wall of the disinfection chamber 11. The spaced-apart installation of the magnets 412 also helps to avoid mutual interference between the magnets 412 and maintain the consistency of the magnetic force. Furthermore, in some embodiments of this utility model, the plate body 411 has multiple corner portions, with one magnet 412 located at one corner, which provides even better results.

[0037] In some embodiments of this utility model, the wall of the disinfection chamber 11 is provided with a plurality of spaced-apart disinfection lamps 50, and the plate 411 is provided with an avoidance notch 4112 to avoid the disinfection lamps 50. This ensures that the connecting plate 41 will not block the disinfection lamps 50 when it is installed on the wall of the disinfection chamber 11, thereby not affecting the disinfection effect.

[0038] In some embodiments of this utility model, the side of the plate 411 facing away from the limiting plate 42 is provided with a plurality of mounting grooves 4111, and a magnet 412 is embedded in the mounting groove 4111. The magnet 412 is embedded in the mounting groove 4111, which makes the connection between the magnet 412 and the plate 411 more stable, and the plate 411 can provide good protection for the magnet.

[0039] In some embodiments of this utility model, a mounting platform 413 protrudes from the side of the plate 411 facing away from the magnet 412, and an assembly groove 414 is formed on the top surface of the mounting platform 413. One end of the limiting plate 42 is assembled into the assembly groove 414. In this way, the mounting platform 413 can provide stable support for the limiting plate 42, and also increase the structural strength of the connecting plate 41.

[0040] In some embodiments of this invention, the limiting plate 42 is made of a transparent material. This allows the ultraviolet light emitted by the disinfection lamp 50 to pass through the limiting plate 42 and reach the probe, reducing the impact of the limiting plate 42 on the disinfection effect.

[0041] The above are merely exemplary embodiments of this utility model and do not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of this utility model and the contents of the specification and drawings of this utility model, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
