By directly arranging the adhesive button on the artificial nose, the electrode sheet can be directly attached to achieve fixation. The electrode sheet can be attached to the patient's body, limbs or operating bed. When the position and direction of the breathing circuit need to be adjusted, the adhesive button is only needed to be detached from the original electrode sheet. After adjustment, the electrode sheet is attached to the desired position, and the adhesive button is attached to the new electrode sheet.

[0009] Preferably, the rotary connector comprises a ring-shaped buckle and a ring-shaped slot, the edge of the ring-shaped buckle is spherical or arc spherical, the ring-shaped buckle is arranged in the ring-shaped slot, and the ring-shaped buckle is not fixedly connected with the ring-shaped slot, the ring-shaped slot is U-shaped, and the edge extends inward to wrap the ring-shaped buckle.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] (1) By rotatably connecting the first port and the connecting pipe at both ends of the elbow tube, the breathing circuit can be directly rotated through the annular groove and the annular buckle to adjust the angle of the threaded tube. The threaded tube can be directly rotated to prevent accidental twisting or folding. This allows medical staff to flexibly adjust the position of the endotracheal tube according to the surgical needs and ensures that the endotracheal tube will not be rotated or deformed. This makes it easier to expose the surgical area and allows surgeons to perform related operations with greater confidence, reducing complications caused by improper operation.

[0021] (2) By attaching adhesive buttons to the artificial nose and engaging with electrode pads, the breathing circuit can be stably and securely fixed to the patient's body, limbs, or operating table.

When the position or direction of the breathing circuit needs to be adjusted during surgery, medical personnel simply need to gently disconnect the adhesive buttons from the original electrode pads, then attach the new electrode pads to the desired position and reattach the adhesive buttons. The entire process requires no complicated disassembly and reinstallation steps, providing medical personnel with a safer, more convenient, and more efficient fixation method.

[0022] (3) By setting a piston port at the bend of the elbow tube, the opening is tightly blocked with the piston cap during ventilation to prevent gas leakage and ensure the safety of ventilation. When suctioning is required, medical staff can simply pull out the piston cap and insert the suction tube through the piston port to perform the suctioning operation, which simplifies the suctioning process and improves work efficiency.

[0023] (4) By designing the connecting tube as a pleated flexible tube, it has the functions of extension and bending, and can be adjusted according to the specific needs of clinical surgery. Whether it is necessary to lengthen it to adapt to long-distance surgical operations, to shorten it to ensure the compactness of the breathing circuit, or to bend it to adapt to specific surgical positions or space constraints, this design can easily cope with them.

[0036] By setting the annular buckle 6 and the annular groove 7, the elbow tube 2 is not fixedly connected to the first port 1 and the connecting tube 3, and it has the function of rotation without separating or falling off. This allows the breathing circuit to be adjusted and rotated according to clinical needs after the endotracheal tube is connected. Moreover, when the breathing circuit is compressed or twisted to an extreme degree, it can also adjust its rotation in accordance with the pressure direction by adjusting the rotation of the annular groove 7 and the annular buckle 6.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, the elbow tube 2 has a piston port 21 at the corner, and a matching piston cap 22 is provided at the piston port 21.

Furthermore, the rounded corners of the artificial nose 4 significantly reduce the risk of skin damage and improve safety.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment, the artificial nose 4 is internally composed of a combination of absorbent material and a highly efficient hydrophilic compound. This combination provides appropriate humidification, effective warming, and filtration of the patient's breath, reducing the incidence of respiratory complications during general anesthesia.

[0043] In a preferred embodiment, the electrode sheet 42 is provided with medical-grade adhesive on the side away from the adhesive button 41.

[0044] The working principle of this device is as follows: When it is necessary to connect the breathing tube, the second port 5 can be connected to the tube and the first port 1 can be connected to the patient's breathing end. Then, the electrode 42 is pasted in the position to be fixed. The adhesive button 41 on the artificial nose 4 is matched with the electrode 42 to fix the breathing circuit.
