Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically a cleaning device for a medical device decoction machine. Background Technology

[0002] Decoction machines are common equipment in medical institutions used for decocting traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) soups. During operation, herbs are placed in the decoction pot with an appropriate amount of water. The decoction is heated to boiling by a heating plate at the bottom of the pot. During continuous decoction, residues of herbs and liquid accumulate inside the pot, cooling pot, and connecting pipes. The excessive temperature changes of these residues can cause blockages if left untreated. If these residues are not cleaned promptly and thoroughly, they can affect the quality and purity of subsequent decoctions, leading to cross-contamination and potentially bacterial growth, compromising medication safety. Furthermore, dried residues adhere to the pot and pipe walls, increasing cleaning difficulty and even causing blockages.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, we propose a cleaning device for a medical device decoction machine. Utility Model Content

[0014] The technical solution in this application embodiment is to solve the problems in the background technology mentioned above. The overall idea is as follows: This utility model is equipped with a cleaning component to clean the residual dregs after the decoction of Chinese herbal medicines. By cleaning the pipe components, the decoction pot 3 and the cooling pot 4, the product failure rate is effectively reduced. Furthermore, the heater 13 heats the inlet water, which effectively reduces the difficulty of cleaning. In addition, while performing the cleaning function, it can also be used to add water in the early stage of the decoction of Chinese herbal medicines, which effectively reduces the labor intensity.

[0015] Example: Refer to Figures 1-3As shown, a cleaning device for a medical device decoction machine in this embodiment includes a decoction machine body 1. The decoction machine body 1 includes two sets of decoction pots 3 and a set of cooling pots 4. The two sets of decoction pots 3 are respectively arranged on both sides of the upper end of the decoction machine body 1, and the cooling pot 4 is arranged in the middle of the upper end of the decoction machine body 1 and is located between the two sets of decoction pots 3. The cooling pot 4 is connected to the two sets of decoction pots 3 through a pipe assembly; the pipe assembly includes a first connecting pipe 5, a second connecting pipe 6 and a third connecting pipe 7. The first connecting pipe 5 and the second connecting pipe 6 are respectively connected to the two sets of decoction pots 3, and the third connecting pipe 7 is connected to the cooling pot 4. A drain pipe 9 is connected to the bottom of the pipe assembly, and a drain connector 10 is provided at the end of the drain pipe 9. The drain connector 10 is installed on the side of the decoction machine body 1.

[0016] The pipe assembly forms the transport channel for the medicinal liquid during the decoction and cooling process. At the bottom of the pipe assembly, the liquid converges and is connected to a drain pipe 9 and a drain connector 10. The drain pipe 9 and the drain connector 10 are used to discharge wastewater during cleaning.

[0017] The cleaning assembly is used to perform cleaning tasks. The cleaning assembly includes a heater 13 and a spray head 15. The heater 13 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the decoction machine body 1. A conveying hose 14 is provided at the water outlet end of the heater 13, and the spray head 15 is installed at the end of the conveying hose 14. A water inlet connector 11 is provided in the middle of the side end of the decoction machine body 1. The water inlet connector 11 is connected to the heater 13 through a connecting pipe 12.

[0018] During use, the water is heated by the heater 13 and then delivered to the spray head 15 through the delivery hose 14. At this time, the operator can hold the spray head 15 to rinse the inner walls of the decoction pot 3 and the cooling pot 4. The delivery hose 14 provides good flexibility, allowing the operator to easily move the spray head 15 and aim it at the parts that need to be cleaned, such as the inner wall of the decoction pot 3, the inner wall of the cooling pot 4, and the inlets of the connecting pipes.

[0019] In some examples, the bottom of the cooling pot 4 is provided with a discharge pipe 8, and the end of the discharge pipe 8 is connected to a packing machine. The packing machine adopts existing technology and is mainly used for packaging medicines.

[0020] In some examples, a control console 2 is provided on the upper side of the decoction machine body 1 for starting the decoction program. This control console 2 adopts existing technology.

[0021] In some examples, heater 13 has a capacity of 20 liters. In actual use, when the water required by the decoction pot 3 is less than 20 liters, the water in heater 13 can be taken directly without the need for staff to fetch water separately, which effectively reduces labor intensity and further improves the convenience of decocting Chinese medicine.

[0022] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the decoction machine needs to be cleaned after it has finished decoction, first connect the water inlet connector 11 to the external water source and connect the drain connector 10 to the drain pipe.

[0023] Then, the cleaning process is initiated. First, heater 13 starts working, and external cold water enters heater 13 through connecting pipe 12 and is heated. The operator holds spray head 15 and inserts it into the two decoction pots 3 and cooling pot 4 in sequence, opens the valve, and hot water sprays out from spray head 15 to rinse the inner wall of the pots. At the same time, spray head 15 can also be used to rinse the joints of the first connecting pipe 5, the second connecting pipe 6, and the third connecting pipe 7.

[0024] The dregs, residual liquid, and other contaminants washed off are collected through the pipe assembly along with the water flow, and finally discharged outside the machine through the drain pipe 9 and drain connector 10 at the bottom, completing the entire cleaning process.

[0025] This invention effectively reduces the failure rate by rinsing the medicinal liquid promptly after decoction. Furthermore, considering the difficulty in cleaning the solidified dregs produced during the high-temperature decoction of Chinese herbs, a heater 13 is added to the cleaning component. The heater 13 heats the cleaning water to approximately 55 degrees Celsius, effectively achieving the cleaning effect. Using hot water effectively removes oily components and stubborn stains. Combined with a flexible spray head, it ensures thorough cleaning, greatly improving cleaning efficiency and effectiveness.

[0026] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model.
