Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sputum chest percussion devices, and in particular to a self-service sputum chest percussion device. Background Technology

[0002] Patients with bronchiectasis experience increased and thicker mucus secretion due to bronchial structural damage and chronic inflammation. Impaired ciliary function leads to sputum retention, causing recurrent infections and creating a vicious cycle of "sputum retention → worsening infection." Chest percussion devices are needed to loosen and expel sputum, helping to improve bronchial and lung function.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN205814635U discloses a portable sputum-slapping device, which belongs to the field of medical devices. It includes a sputum-slapping device body with a hemispherical cross-section and a handle. The sputum-slapping device body has a cavity. The handle is located on the side of the sputum-slapping device body away from the cavity. A buffer member is provided at the opening of the cavity and is detachably connected to the sputum-slapping device body. The buffer member is arranged along the circumference of the sputum-slapping device body.

[0004] Although the above technical solutions have solved the corresponding technical problems, they still have the following drawbacks:

[0005] The aforementioned sputum-visiting devices are relatively simple in design, generally lacking a handle, making them difficult for patients to operate independently. Patients often require assistance from others (such as medical staff or family members) to complete the sputum-visiting action. This not only increases the workload for nursing staff but also, when operated by others, the difficulty in precisely controlling the force, frequency, and location of the blows may prevent achieving the desired sputum-visiting effect, and could even cause discomfort or injury to the patient. Furthermore, different patients have different physical conditions and sputum-visiting needs, and existing sputum-visiting devices lack flexible adjustment mechanisms, making it difficult to meet diverse usage requirements. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a self-service sputum-visiting device. The operating handle allows patients to hold it themselves and rhythmically pat their backs. The hollow cup-shaped structure generates airflow vibrations, transmitting pressure to the bronchial region of the lungs to loosen and expel sputum, breaking the limitations of traditional sputum-visiting devices that rely on external operation. The combination of the sleeve and adjusting slide allows for flexible adjustment of the operating handle length to meet the needs of different patients' heights, patting locations, and operating habits. The positioning component reliably locks in place, ensuring stability during use. The design of the mounting bolts facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the operating handle, making cleaning, maintenance, and replacement easier and reducing operating costs. Overall, this device provides a more efficient, comfortable, and practical solution for sputum drainage care.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the main technical solutions adopted by this utility model include:

[0008] A self-service sputum-clearing device includes:

[0009] The sputum-spitting device body has an operating handle for operating the sputum-spitting device body. The operating handle is telescopic and the end of the operating handle is connected to the sputum-spitting device body through a mounting component.

[0036] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.

[0037] Please refer to Figures 1 to 8 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a self-service sputum-spitting device, comprising: a sputum-spitting device body 1, an operating handle 2 for operating the sputum-spitting device body 1 is installed on the sputum-spitting device body 1, the operating handle 2 is retractable, and the end of the operating handle 2 is connected to the sputum-spitting device body 1 through an installation component 3.

[0038] By adopting the above technical solution, the operating handle 2 allows patients to independently hold it and rhythmically pat their backs. The hollow cup-shaped structure generates airflow vibrations, transmitting pressure to the bronchial region of the lungs to loosen and expel sputum, breaking the limitation of traditional sputum-patting devices that rely on external operation. The cooperation between the sleeve 201 and the adjusting slide 2011 allows for flexible adjustment of the length of the operating handle 2 to meet the needs of different patients' heights, patting locations, and operating habits. Furthermore, the positioning component 202 reliably locks in place, ensuring stability during use. The design of the mounting bolts 302 facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the operating handle 2, making cleaning, maintenance, and replacement easier and reducing operating costs. Overall, this device provides a more efficient, comfortable, and practical solution for patient sputum drainage care.

[0039] To allow the length of the operating handle 2 to be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage needs, the appropriate length of the operating handle 2 can be achieved by adjusting the position of the adjusting rod 2011 within the sleeve 201, regardless of the patient's height or the need to operate on different tapping points. This greatly improves the convenience and adaptability of use. In this embodiment, the operating handle 2 includes a sleeve 201, and the adjusting rod 2011 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 201.

[0040] In order to provide users with a comfortable grip, the protective rubber sleeve further increases the comfort and stability of the grip, reduces slippage caused by prolonged use or sweaty hands, and ensures that users can operate the sputum tapping device stably and easily. In this embodiment, the end of the sleeve 201 is fixedly connected to the grip handle 2012, and the grip handle 2012 is provided with a protective rubber sleeve.

[0041] To ensure the stability of the sleeve 201 and the adjusting slide bar 2011 after adjustment, in this embodiment: a positioning component 202 for locking the adjusting slide bar 2011 is installed on the sleeve 201 at the position corresponding to the adjusting slide bar 2011. The positioning component 202 includes a threaded seat 2021 fixedly connected to the sleeve 201, and a positioning bolt 2022 for fixing the adjusting slide bar 2011 is threadedly connected to the threaded seat 2021. After the length of the operating handle 2 is adjusted, the positioning bolt 2022 is tightened to make it in close contact with the adjusting slide bar 2011, thereby achieving reliable locking of the adjusting slide bar 2011, ensuring that the length of the operating handle 2 will not change unexpectedly during use, and ensuring the stability and accuracy of the sputum tapping operation.

[0042] To prevent the adjusting slide rod 2011 from coming off and to ensure smooth sliding, in this embodiment: a limiting disc 203 is fixedly connected to the end of the adjusting slide rod 2011 at the position corresponding to the sleeve 201 for limiting the adjusting slide rod 2011; a limiting ring 204 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 201 at the position corresponding to the adjusting slide rod 2011 for limiting the adjusting slide rod 2011; several limiting balls 2031 are arranged at equal intervals at the edge of the limiting disc 203 and on the inner wall of the limiting ring 204; the limiting disc 203 is rolledly connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 201 through the limiting balls 2031; and the limiting ring 204 is fixedly connected to the adjusting slide rod 2011 through the limiting balls 2031. The setting of the limiting disc 203 and the limiting ring 204 effectively prevents the adjusting slide rod 2011 from coming off the sleeve 201, ensuring the integrity of the operating handle 2 structure. Meanwhile, the rolling connection of the limiting ball 2031 greatly reduces the friction when the adjusting slide bar 2011 slides in the sleeve 201, making the adjustment process smoother and easier, and improving the smoothness of operation.

This threaded connection makes the assembly and disassembly of the operating handle 2 from the sputum tapping device body 1 very simple and quick. When the operating handle 2 needs cleaning, maintenance, or replacement, simply unscrew the mounting bolt 302; no complicated tools or cumbersome steps are required, greatly improving the maintainability and flexibility of the device.

[0044] In order to increase the friction between the mounting bolt 302 and the mounting base 301, effectively prevent the mounting bolt 302 from loosening due to vibration or other reasons during use, and ensure the firmness and stability of the connection between the operating handle 2 and the body 1 of the sputum tapping device, in this embodiment, a spring washer 3021 is also provided on the mounting bolt 302.

[0045] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: To enable patients to perform self-administered sputum tapping, in this embodiment, the patient holds the handle 2012 of the operating handle 2 and rhythmically taps their back using the sputum tapping device body 1. During the tapping process, the hollow cup-shaped structure of the sputum tapping device body 1 generates airflow vibration, transmitting pressure to the bronchial region of the lungs, helping the patient loosen sputum and promote its expulsion. When the length of the operating handle 2 needs to be adjusted according to usage requirements, loosen the positioning bolt 2022, move the adjusting slide rod 2011 to the appropriate position, and then tighten the positioning bolt 2022 to lock it. The limiting plate 203, limiting ring 204, and limiting ball 2031 ensure that the adjusting slide rod 2011 slides stably within the sleeve 201 and will not come off. When the operating handle 2 needs to be cleaned, repaired, or replaced, unscrew the mounting bolt 302 to remove the operating handle 2 from the sputum tapping device body 1; the operation is simple and convenient.
