Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to an incubator and an infant incubator. Background Technology

[0002] An infant incubator is a medical device that provides suitable temperature, humidity, and oxygen concentration within its enclosure. Its purpose is to provide a womb-like growth environment for premature or sick infants. In related technologies, temperature, humidity, and oxygen concentration are regulated by air ducts installed on the incubator to guide gas circulation within the enclosure.

[0003] However, during the use of an infant incubator, dirt can accumulate in the airway. Since the airway is difficult to clean and disinfect, bacteria can easily grow in the high temperature and humidity environment, thus endangering the baby's health. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the embodiments of this application aim to provide an incubator body and an infant incubator that are easy to clean and disinfect.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, one embodiment of this application provides an incubator, comprising:

[0006] Base;

[0007] A side plate assembly is disposed on the upper side of the base along the height direction. The side plate assembly includes a first side plate and a second side plate. The first side plate and the second side plate enclose a culture space with an opening at the top. The first side plate and the base have a communication port communicating with the culture space.

[0008] A door body, which is closable and can be mounted on the base;

[0009] An air duct shell is detachably disposed on one of the door body and the base to form a first airflow channel between the door body and the base, the first airflow channel being connected to the communication port when the door body is closed.

[0010] Another embodiment of this application provides an infant incubator, comprising:

[0011] The incubator described above;

[0012] A box cover, which is closable and can be installed over the opening;

[0013] A fan is installed inside the base. The fan has an air inlet and an air outlet. The air outlet is connected to the first airflow channel when the door is closed.

[0014] This application provides an incubator and an infant incubator. The incubator is equipped with a door and an airway shell. By closably mounting the door on the base and detachably mounting the airway shell on either the door or the base, a first airflow channel can be constructed between the door and the base. When the first airflow channel needs to be cleaned and disinfected, simply open the door, remove the airway shell from the door or the base, and clean and disinfect the airway shell (if necessary, the door and / or the base can also be cleaned and disinfected). This ensures that the first airflow channel can be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected, thereby effectively preventing bacterial growth that could harm the infant's health.

Detailed Implementation

[0031] In the description of the embodiments of this application, it should be noted that the terms "height direction," "up," "down," "first direction," "second direction," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the appendix. Figure 1 The orientation or positional relationship shown, and the orientation or positional relationship indicated by "clamping direction", are based on the attached... Figure 7 The directions or positional relationships shown are as follows, where "top" is an appendix. Figure 1 The "up" direction shown is merely for the convenience of describing the embodiments of this application and simplifying the description, and is not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation on the embodiments of this application.

[0032] This application provides an infant incubator; please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1 to 7 The infant incubator includes an incubator body 10, a cover 20, and a fan 30.

[0033] Please see Figures 1 to 7 The culture chamber 10 in this embodiment includes a base 11, a side panel assembly 12, a door 13, and an airway shell 14.

[0034] The side plate assembly 12 is disposed on the upper side of the base 11 along the height direction. The side plate assembly 12 includes a first side plate 121 and a second side plate 122. The first side plate 121 and the second side plate 122 enclose a culture space 12a with an opening at the top, and the first side plate 121 and the base 11 have a communication port 12b that communicates with the culture space 12a.

[0035] The incubation space 12a is used to place an infant. The incubation space 12a is generally equipped with a support surface such as a bed board. The bed board is placed on the base 11, and the infant can be placed on the bed board from the opening at the top of the incubation space 12a.

[0036] Figure 1 The side plate assembly 12 shown has two first side plates 121, which are located on opposite sides of the base 11. Each first side plate 121 has a communication port 12b communicating with the culture space 12a between itself and the base 11. In some embodiments, the two first side plates 121 may also be located on adjacent sides of the base 11, or the side plate assembly 12 may have only one first side plate 121.

[0037] Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first side panel 121 shown includes a panel 1211 with a nursing opening and a nursing window 1212 that can be opened and closed at the nursing opening. When the nursing window 1212 is opened, medical staff can provide appropriate care to the infant in the culture space 12a through the nursing opening.

[0038] In some other embodiments, the first side panel 121 may not have a nursing opening and nursing window 1212.

[0039] The door 13 is movably mounted on the base 11, meaning that the door 13 is movably mounted on the base 11 and can be opened or closed by moving relative to the base 11.

[0040] The way the door 13 is movably mounted on the base 11 is not limited, for example, Figures 1 to 5 The door 13 shown is rotatably mounted on the base 11, and the door 13 is opened and closed by rotating.

[0041] For ease of operation, for example, the rotation axis of the door 13 can be located on the lower side of the door 13 along the height direction. That is, after the door 13 is opened, the distance between the upper side of the door 13 and the base 11 along the height direction increases, and the operator can directly see the space between the door 13 and the base 11 from above the door 13.

[0042] The door 13 can be configured with multiple opening positions, each with a different opening angle to meet various opening requirements. For example, please refer to... Figure 4 and Figure 5 The door 13 can be set to a first opening position and a second opening position. Figure 4 The door 13 shown is in the first open position. Figure 5 The door 13 shown is in the second open position, and the opening angle of the door 13 in the first open position is smaller than the opening angle of the door 13 in the second open position.

[0043] It is understood that the door body 13 is not limited to the first opening position and the second opening position. In other embodiments, in addition to the first opening position and the second opening position, the door body 13 may also be provided with other opening positions.

[0044] In other embodiments, the door 13 may also have only one open position.

[0045] In other embodiments, the door 13 may also be movably mounted on the base 11, and the door 13 may be opened and closed by pushing, pulling or drawing.

[0046] Please continue reading. Figures 3 to 8 The air duct housing 14 is detachably disposed on one of the door body 13 and the base 11 to form a first airflow channel 10a located between the door body 13 and the base 11.

[0047] The first airflow channel 10a is a channel through which gas passes.

[0048] In other words, the air passage shell 14 can be detachably connected to the door body 13 or the base 11. By detachably connecting the air passage shell 14 to the door body 13 or the base 11, a first airflow channel 10a can be constructed between the door body 13 and the base 11.

[0049] The air duct housing 14 can be detachably mounted on either the door body 13 or the base 11, as long as the air duct housing 14 can be installed on the door body 13 or the base 11 and can be removed from the door body 13 or the base 11.

[0050] For example, the airway shell 14 can be fastened, snapped, or magnetically attached to the door body 13, or it can be fastened, snapped, or magnetically attached to the base 11. Here, fastening means fixing the airway shell 14 to the door body 13 or the base 11 using fasteners such as screws and bolts.

[0051] The method by which the air duct housing 14 is snapped into the door body 13 or the base 11 is not limited. Taking the air duct housing 14 snapping into the door body 13 as an example, please refer to [link to example]. Figures 6 to 8 The air duct shell 14 may be provided with a first connecting part 142, and the door body 13 may be provided with a second connecting part 131. The first connecting part 142 has a mounting groove 142a and a buckle 142b located in the mounting groove 142a. The second connecting part 131 has a slot 131a. The second connecting part 131 extends into the mounting groove 142a. The buckle 142b is engaged with the first connecting part 142 and the second connecting part 131 by engaging the slot 131a from the opening of the slot 131a. In other words, during the installation of the airway housing 14, the operator can complete the installation of the airway housing 14 by inserting the second connecting part 131 into the mounting groove 142a and engaging the buckle 142b from the opening of the groove 131a. When it is necessary to remove the airway housing 14, simply release the buckle 142b from the opening to the outside of the groove 131a and then remove the second connecting part 131 from the mounting groove 142a.

[0052] In one specific implementation, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 7 and Figure 8 The buckle 142b can be a protruding structure. The protruding direction of the buckle 142b and the orientation of the slot of the slot 131a are both perpendicular to the snapping direction of the first connecting part 142 moving toward the second connecting part 131.

[0053] Specifically, the snap-fit ​​direction is also the direction in which the first connecting part 142 extends into the mounting groove 142a. That is, after the second connecting part 131 is inserted into the mounting groove 142a, the snap groove 131a moves towards the latch 142b from one side along the snap-fit ​​direction. During the movement, the second connecting part 131 contacts the latch 142b. When the snap groove 131a moves to the position of the latch 142b, the latch 142b snaps into the snap groove 131a from the opening. When it is necessary to remove the airway shell 14, simply pull the airway shell 14 in the opposite direction to the snap-fit ​​direction, and the latch 142b can disengage from the opening to the outside of the snap groove 131a. This method facilitates both the snap-fit ​​between the first connecting part 142 and the second connecting part 131 and their separation.

[0054] In other embodiments, the opening of the slot 131a may be parallel to the snap-fit ​​direction. After the second connecting part 131 is inserted into the mounting slot 142a, the opening of the slot 131a faces the buckle 142b. When the slot 131a moves to the setting position of the buckle 142b, the buckle 142b snaps into the slot 131a from the opening. When it is necessary to remove the airway shell 14, it is only necessary to pull the airway shell 14 in the opposite direction to the snap-fit ​​direction, and the buckle 142b can be dislodged from the opening to the outside of the slot 131a.

[0055] In other embodiments, a slot 131a may be provided in the mounting slot 142a, and a buckle 142b may be provided in the second connecting part 131.

[0056] In other embodiments, the first connecting portion 142 may have a slot 131a, the second connecting portion 131 may have a mounting groove 142a and a buckle 142b located in the mounting groove 142a, or the first connecting portion 142 may have a buckle 142b, the second connecting portion 131 may have a mounting groove 142a and a slot 131a located in the mounting groove 142a.

[0057] Alternatively, in the embodiment where the airway shell 14 is snapped onto the base 11, the airway shell 14 may be provided with a first connecting part 142 and the base 11 may be provided with a second connecting part 131. The first connecting part 142 and the second connecting part 131 may also adopt the snapping method described in the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0058] The method by which the air duct shell 14 is magnetically attached to the door body 13 or the base 11 is not limited. For example, taking the air duct shell 14 magnetically attached to the door body 13 as an example, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 9 and Figure 10 The incubator 10 may be provided with a first magnetic 15 and a second magnetic 16. Both the first magnetic 15 and the second magnetic 16 may be magnets, or one of the first magnetic 15 and the second magnetic 16 may be a magnet and the other may be a magnetic component that can magnetically engage with the magnet (i.e., the magnetic component is made of other magnetic materials that can magnetically engage). The first magnetic 15 is provided on the airway shell 14 and the second magnetic 16 is provided on the door 13. The first magnetic 15 and the second magnetic 16 engage magnetically to make the airway shell 14 magnetically engage with the door 13.

[0059] In other embodiments, the culture chamber 10 may also have a magnetic element on the airway shell 14. The magnetic element may be a magnet or made of other magnetic materials capable of magnetic attraction. The magnetic element is magnetically attracted to the door 13. That is, the door 13 is not provided with a magnetic element, but the part of the door 13 that is magnetically attracted to the magnetic element is made of a magnetic material capable of magnetic attraction. The magnetic element is directly magnetically attracted to the door 13. Alternatively, a magnetic element may be provided on the door 13, and the magnetic element is magnetically attracted to the airway shell 14. That is, the airway shell 14 is not provided with a magnetic element, but the part of the airway shell 14 that is magnetically attracted to the magnetic element is made of a magnetic material capable of magnetic attraction. The magnetic element is directly magnetically attracted to the airway shell 14.

[0060] Similarly, when the airway shell 14 is magnetically attached to the base 11, a first magnetic member 15 can be provided on the airway shell 14, and a second magnetic member 16 that magnetically engages with the first magnetic member 15 can be provided on the base 11. Alternatively, a magnetic member can be provided on the airway shell 14, and the magnetic member magnetically engages with the base 11 (i.e., at least the part of the base 11 that magnetically engages with the magnetic member is made of a magnetic material capable of magnetic attraction). Or, a magnetic member can be provided on the base 11, and the magnetic member magnetically engages with the airway shell 14 (i.e., at least the part of the airway shell 14 that magnetically engages with the magnetic member is made of a magnetic material capable of magnetic attraction).

[0061] The way in which the air duct shell 14 forms the first airflow channel 10a between the door body 13 and the base 11 is not limited. For example, for the air duct shell 14 that is detachably provided on the door body 13, the first airflow channel 10a can be formed between the air duct shell 14 and the door body 13, or between the air duct shell 14 and the base 11 (for example, a part of the air duct shell 14 contacts the base 11, so that the first airflow channel 10a is formed between the air duct shell 14 and the base 11), or the first airflow channel 10a can be formed between the air duct shell 14 and the door body 13 and between the air duct shell 14 and the base 11 respectively.

[0062] Similarly, for the air duct shell 14 detachably disposed on the base 11, a first airflow channel 10a may be constructed between the air duct shell 14 and the base 11, or a first airflow channel 10a may be constructed between the air duct shell 14 and the door 13 (for example, after the door 13 is closed, a part of the air duct shell 14 contacts the door 13, so that a first airflow channel 10a is constructed between the air duct shell 14 and the door 13), or a first airflow channel 10a may be constructed between the air duct shell 14 and the door 13 and between the air duct shell 14 and the base 11 respectively.

[0063] For example, please refer to Figure 6 The airway shell 14 may include a main body 141 and at least one first connecting part 142.

[0064] In one embodiment, the number of first connecting portions 142 can be two or more. Multiple first connecting portions 142 protrude from the same side of the main body portion 141 at intervals. Figure 6 Each of the first connecting portions 142 is detachably connected to the door body 13, so that a first airflow channel 10a is formed between the main body portion 141 and the door body 13.

[0065] In other embodiments, while a first airflow channel 10a is formed between the main body 141 and the door body 13, a portion of the main body 141 can also form a first airflow channel 10a between the main body 141 and the base 11 by contacting the base 11. Alternatively, the multiple first connecting portions 142 may only serve to detachably connect to the door body 13, that is, no first airflow channel 10a is formed between the main body 141 and the door body 13, but a portion of the main body 141 forms a first airflow channel 10a between the main body 141 and the base 11 by contacting the base 11. For example, the main body 141 may be provided with folded edges that fold away from the door body 13 on opposite sides, or the main body 141 may be provided with at least two partitions that protrude from the main body 141 at intervals on the side away from the door body 13, or the main body 141 may be provided with at least one folded edge and at least one partition spaced apart from the folded edge, the folded edge and / or partition contacting the base 11 to form a first airflow channel 10a between the main body 141 and the base 11.

[0066] Similarly, for an air duct shell 14 having a main body 141 and a plurality of first connecting parts 142, each first connecting part 142 may be detachably connected to the base 11. Alternatively, a first airflow channel 10a may be constructed between the main body 141 and the base 11, or a first airflow channel 10a may be constructed between the main body 141 and the base 11 and between the main body 141 and the door 13, or a first airflow channel 10a may be constructed between the main body 141 and the door 13, but no first airflow channel 10a may be constructed between the main body 141 and the base 11.

[0067] It should be noted that the air duct shell 14 is not limited to having multiple first connecting parts 142. In some embodiments, the air duct shell 14 may also have only one first connecting part 142. If the first connecting part 142 is detachably connected to the door body 13 and a first airflow channel 10a needs to be constructed between the main body 141 and the door body 13, then a part of the main body 141 can contact the door body 13 to construct the first airflow channel 10a between the main body 141 and the door body 13. If the first connecting part 142 is detachably connected to the base 11 and a first airflow channel 10a needs to be constructed between the main body 141 and the base 11, then a part of the main body 141 can also contact the base 11 to construct the first airflow channel 10a between the main body 141 and the base 11.

[0068] For example, please refer to Figure 11 The airway shell 14 may include a main body 141, a first connecting portion 142 and a protrusion 143. The number of first connecting portions 142 may be one or more, and the number of protrusions 143 may also be one or more. The protrusions 143 and the first connecting portions 142 protrude from the same side of the main body 141 at intervals. Figure 11 The first connecting part 141 is detachably connected to the door body 13, and the protrusion 143 contacts the door body 13, that is, the protrusion 143 is not connected to the door body 13. Figure 11 A first airflow channel 10a is formed between the main body 141 and the door body 13. The protrusion 143 and the first connecting part 142 together serve to separate the main body 141 from the door body 13 so that the first airflow channel 10a is formed between the main body 141 and the door body 13.

[0069] In other embodiments, for the air duct shell 14 having a main body 141, a protrusion 143 and a first connecting part 142, while a first airflow channel 10a is constructed between the main body 141 and the door body 13, a part of the main body 141 can also form a first airflow channel 10a between the main body 141 and the base 11 by contacting the base 11. Alternatively, no first airflow channel 10a is constructed between the main body 141 and the door body 13, the first connecting part 142 only serves to detachably connect to the door body 13, and the protrusion 143 only serves to support the main body 141. A part of the main body 141 forms a first airflow channel 10a between the main body 141 and the base 11 by contacting the base 11.

[0070] Similarly, for the air duct shell 14 having a main body 141, a protrusion 143, and a first connecting part 142, the first connecting part 142 may be detachably connected to the base 11, and the protrusion 143 may contact the base 11, that is, the protrusion 143 may not be connected to the base 11. A first airflow channel 10a may be constructed between the main body 141 and the base 11, or a first airflow channel 10a may be constructed between the main body 141 and the base 11 and between the main body 141 and the door 13, or a first airflow channel 10a may be constructed between the main body 141 and the door 13, but no first airflow channel 10a may be constructed between the main body 141 and the base 11.

[0071] In other embodiments, for the door body 13 which is detachably connected to the air passage shell 14, a plurality of spaced first protrusions may also be provided on the side of the door body 13 near the base 11. The air passage shell 14 is detachably connected to the plurality of first protrusions. For this connection method, regardless of whether a first airflow channel 10a is formed between the air passage shell 14 and the door body 13, the air passage shell 14 may or may not be provided with a first connecting part 142.

[0072] In other embodiments, for the base 11 which is detachably connected to the air passage shell 14, a plurality of spaced second protrusions may also be provided on the side of the base 11 near the door body 13. The air passage shell 14 is detachably connected to the plurality of second protrusions. For this connection method, regardless of whether a first airflow channel 10a is formed between the air passage shell 14 and the base 11, the air passage shell 14 may or may not be provided with a first connecting part 142.

[0073] In addition, a first airflow channel 10a can be constructed between the door body 13 and the base 11 through multiple air duct shells 14, for example, Figure 6 The door body 13 shown is provided with two air duct shells 14, each air duct shell 14 constructs a corresponding first airflow channel 10a. In other embodiments, a corresponding first airflow channel 10a can also be constructed by one air duct shell 14.

[0074] Please continue reading. Figure 3 The first airflow channel 10a is connected to the connection port 12b when the door 13 is closed.

[0075] In other words, when the door 13 is closed, the gas in the first airflow channel 10a can enter the culture space 12a from the connection port 12b between the first side plate 121 and the base 11.

[0076] Please see Figure 1 The base 11 has two opposite sides along a first direction and two opposite sides along a second direction, and the first direction, the second direction, and the height direction are perpendicular to each other. Figure 1 The door 13 and the first side plate 121 are located on the same side of the base 11 along the first direction. When the door 13 is closed, the first airflow channel 10a is located below the connecting port 12b. The gas in the first airflow channel 10a flows upward to enter the culture space 12a from the connecting port 12b.

[0077] In other embodiments, the door 13 and the first side plate 121 may also be disposed on the same side of the base 11 along the second direction.

[0078] In other embodiments, the door 13 and the first side plate 121 may be respectively disposed on different sides of the base 11, and the first airflow channel 10a and the connecting port 12b may be connected by other air passages.

[0079] Figure 3 The infant incubator shown has two doors 13, and each door 13 is provided with a corresponding air duct shell 14. That is, each door 13 has a first airflow channel 10a between itself and the base 11. When both doors 13 are closed, the first airflow channel 10a between one door 13 and the base 11 is connected to one of the two connecting ports 12b, and the first airflow channel 10a between the other door 13 and the base 11 is connected to the other of the two connecting ports 12b.

[0080] Please continue reading. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cover 20 is closable and can be opened and closed over the opening, meaning that the cover 20 can be opened or closed. When the cover 20 is closed, it seals the opening, creating a relatively enclosed space within the culture space 12a. When the cover 20 is open, it avoids the opening, allowing the infant to be placed into the culture space 12a from the opening, and the infant can also be removed from the culture space 12a from the opening.

[0081] Please see Figure 3 A fan 30 is disposed within the base 11 to drive gas flow. The fan 30 has an inlet and an outlet 30a. The inlet is the entrance for gas to enter the fan 30, and the outlet 30a is the exit for gas to flow out of the fan 30. The impeller inside the fan 30 rotates to cause gas to enter the fan 30 from the inlet and flow out from the outlet 30a.

[0082] Please continue reading. Figure 3 When the door 13 is closed, the air outlet 30a is connected to the first airflow channel 10a. In other words, when the door 13 is closed, the gas flowing out of the air outlet 30a can flow into the first airflow channel 10a.

[0083] Figure 3 The fan 30 shown has two air outlets 30a. When both doors 13 are closed, one air outlet 30a is connected to a first airflow channel 10a at one of the two doors 13, and the other air outlet 30a is connected to a first airflow channel 10a at the other of the two doors 13.

[0084] Specifically, during the process of adjusting the temperature, humidity, and oxygen concentration in the infant incubator, the cover 20 is placed over the opening, the door 13 is closed, the first airflow channel 10a is connected to the air outlet 30a of the fan 30 and the connecting port 12b between the first side plate 121 and the base 11, respectively. The fan 30 is working to drive the gas to flow out from the air outlet 30a and into the first airflow channel 10a. The gas flowing out from the first airflow channel 10a enters the incubation space 12a through the connecting port 12b.

[0085] In related technologies, the airflow channels on infant incubators are generally directly installed on the incubator body, and operators cannot open the airflow channels for cleaning and disinfection. Therefore, bacteria can easily grow in the airflow channels, thereby endangering the health of infants.

[0086] The infant incubator of this application embodiment is provided with a door 13 and an airway shell 14. By setting the door 13 to be openable and closable on the base 11 and setting the airway shell 14 to be detachably set on either the door 13 or the base 11, the airway shell 14 can form a first airflow channel 10a between the door 13 and the base 11. When it is necessary to clean and disinfect the first airflow channel 10a, it is only necessary to open the door 13, remove the airway shell 14 from the door 13 or the base 11, and clean and disinfect the airway shell 14 (if necessary, the door 13 and / or the base 11 can also be cleaned and disinfected). Thus, it can be better ensured that the first airflow channel 10a can be cleaned and disinfected in place, thereby better avoiding the growth of bacteria that may harm the health of the infant.

[0087] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 3 to 5 The base 11 can be provided with an X-ray film compartment 11a having an opening 11b. The X-ray film compartment 11a is located on the lower side of the culture space 12a along the height direction. The door 13 is opened and closed to avoid or block the opening 11b.

[0088] X-ray film compartment 11a is used to hold the X-ray film required for X-ray imaging of infants. The X-ray film is inserted into the X-ray film compartment 11a through the loading and unloading port 11b, and the X-ray film placed in the X-ray film compartment 11a is also taken out through the loading and unloading port 11b.

[0089] For easier placement of X-ray film, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figures 3 to 5, Figure 10 The incubator 10 can be equipped with a tray 19, on which X-ray film is placed and then placed into or taken out of the X-ray film compartment 11a via the tray 19.

[0090] Please continue reading. Figure 1 and Figure 2 When the door 13 is closed, it blocks the access port 11b. At this time, the access port 11b is not visible from the outside of the incubator 10. X-ray film cannot be placed into the X-ray film chamber 11a through the access port 11b, nor can it be taken out through the access port 11b. When the door 13 is opened, it avoids the access port 11b, and the operator can see the access port 11b. X-ray film can be placed into the X-ray film chamber 11a through the access port 11b, or it can be taken out through the access port 11b.

[0091] In other words, in addition to being used to assemble and disassemble the air duct shell 14, the door 13 can also be used to shield the X-ray film compartment 11a's loading and unloading port 11b.

[0092] Please see Figure 3 For the incubator 10, where the airway shell 14 is detachably connected to the door 13, when the door 13 is closed, the airway shell 14 can at least block a portion of the inlet / outlet 11b. That is, the airway shell 14 can block only a portion of the inlet / outlet 11b or block the entire inlet / outlet 11b. By blocking at least a portion of the inlet / outlet 11b, the airway shell 14 can minimize the gas loss in the first airflow channel 10a, so that the gas can enter the incubation space 12a more quickly, thereby enabling the temperature, humidity, and oxygen concentration in the incubation space 12a to reach the set values ​​more quickly.

[0093] For the incubator 10 in which the airway shell 14 is detachably connected to the base 11, the airway shell 14 can at least partially cover the access port 11b. That is, after the airway shell 14 is detachably connected to the base 11, the airway shell 14 can cover only part of the access port 11b or cover the entire access port 11b. It is understandable that for this type of airway shell 14, if it is necessary to access or remove X-ray film, the airway shell 14 generally needs to be removed from the base 11 after the door 13 is opened.

[0094] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 13 and Figure 14 The first side plate 121 can be movably connected to the base 11 so that the first side plate 121 can move between the open position and the closed position, that is, the first side plate 121 can be opened or closed.

[0095] Please see Figure 13 and Figure 14 Once the first side panel 121 is opened, medical staff can provide appropriate care to the infant in the culture space 12a through the opening of the first side panel 121.

[0096] Please see Figure 13 and Figure 14 The first side plate 121 can be rotatably connected to the base 11, that is, the first side plate 121 can be rotated relative to the base 11 to move between an open position and a closed position.

[0097] The first side panel 121 can be configured with multiple opening positions, each with a different opening angle to meet various opening requirements. For example, please refer to... Figure 13 and Figure 14 The first side panel 121 can be configured with a third opening position and a fourth opening position. Figure 13 The first side panel 121 shown is in the third open position. Figure 14 The first side panel 121 shown is in the fourth open position. The opening angle of the first side panel 121 in the third open position is smaller than the opening angle of the first side panel 121 in the fourth open position.

[0098] It is understood that the first side panel 121 is not limited to the third and fourth opening positions. In other embodiments, the first side panel 121 may also be provided with other opening positions besides the third and fourth opening positions.

[0099] In other embodiments, the first side panel 121 may also have only one open position.

[0100] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 13 and Figure 14 The incubator 10 may be provided with a connecting arm 17, which is rotatably mounted on the base 11 and connected to the first side plate 121. The connecting arm 17 rotates to drive the first side plate 121 to move between the open position and the closed position.

[0101] Please continue reading. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 13 and Figure 14For the incubator 10 with the door 13 and the first side plate 121 located on the same side of the base 11 along the first direction, the connecting arm 17 can be provided with two arms 171 rotatably connected to the base 11. The two arms 171 are respectively located on opposite sides of the door 13 along the second direction, and a clearance opening is formed between the two arms 171 to avoid the door 13. That is to say, regardless of whether the first side plate 121 is open or not, the two arms 171 will not interfere with the door 13, or in other words, regardless of whether the first side plate 121 is open or not, the door 13 can be opened or closed normally.

[0102] In other embodiments, the first side plate 121 may also be slidably connected to the base 11, that is, the first side plate 121 may be slidable relative to the base 11 to move between an open position and a closed position.

[0103] In some other embodiments, the first side plate 121 may also be fixed to the base 11, that is, the first side plate 121 may not have an opening and closing function.

[0104] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 13 and Figure 14 For the openable and closable first side plate 121, the culture chamber 10 can be provided with a mounting shell 18. The mounting shell 18 is disposed between the first side plate 121 and the base 11, and is detachably connected to either the first side plate 121 or the base 11 to form a communication port 12b. That is, the mounting shell 18 can be detachably connected to either the first side plate 121 or the base 11. By detachably connecting the mounting shell 18 to either the first side plate 121 or the base 11, a communication port 12b can be formed between the first side plate 121 and the base 11.

[0105] The way in which the mounting shell 18 is detachably connected to the first side plate 121 or the base 11 is not limited, as long as the mounting shell 18 can be installed on the first side plate 121 or the base 11 and can be removed from the first side plate 121 or the base 11.

[0106] For example, the mounting housing 18 can be fastened, snapped or magnetically attached to the first side plate 121, or fastened, snapped or magnetically attached to the base 11.

[0107] The way in which the mounting shell 18 is detachably connected to the first side plate 121 or the base 11 and the way in which the air passage shell 14 is detachably connected to the door body 13 or the base 11 can be the same or similar.

[0108] Figure 3The mounting housing 18 shown forms a communication port 12b with the first side plate 121. In other embodiments, regardless of whether the mounting housing 18 is detachably connected to the first side plate 121 or detachably connected to the base 11, a communication port 12b may also be formed between the mounting housing 18 and the base 11. Alternatively, communication ports 12b may be formed between the mounting housing 18 and the first side plate 121 and between the mounting housing 18 and the base 11, respectively.

[0109] By providing a removable mounting shell 18, the mounting shell 18 can be removed from the first side panel 121 or the base 11 after the first side panel 121 is opened, and the mounting shell 18 can be cleaned and disinfected (if necessary, the first side panel 121 and / or the base 11 can also be cleaned and disinfected). This can better prevent bacteria from growing at the connection port 12b and endangering the health of the infant.

[0110] In other embodiments, regardless of whether the first side plate 121 adopts an openable and closable structure, the mounting shell 18 may not be provided between the first side plate 121 and the base 11. For example, the first side plate 121 may be spaced apart from the base 11 so that a communication port 12b is formed at the interval.

[0111] In one embodiment, the second side plate 122 may also be movably connected to the base 11 so that the second side plate 122 can move between an open position and a closed position. That is, the second side plate 122 can also be opened or closed, so that medical staff can provide appropriate care to the infant in the culture space 12a from the open position of the second side plate 122.

[0112] The second side plate 122 can be rotatably connected to the base 11, that is, the second side plate 122 can be rotated relative to the base 11 to move between an open position and a closed position. In other embodiments, the second side plate 122 can also be slidably connected to the base 11, that is, the second side plate 122 can be slidably connected relative to the base 11 to move between an open position and a closed position.

[0113] In some other embodiments, the second side plate 122 may also be fixed to the base 11, that is, the second side plate 122 may not have an opening and closing function.

[0114] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 The base 11 may include a seat body 111 and a door shell 112 that is openable and closable on the seat body 111. When the door shell 112 is in the closed state, a second airflow channel 11c that communicates with the first airflow channel 10a is formed between the door shell 112 and the seat body 111.

[0115] In other words, the door shell 112 can be opened or closed. When the door shell 112 is closed, a second airflow channel 11c is formed between the door shell 112 and the base 111. After the gas flows out from the air outlet 30a of the fan 30, it first enters the second airflow channel 11c and then flows into the first airflow channel 10a from the second airflow channel 11c.

[0116] The opening and closing method of the door shell 112 is not limited; for example, Figure 3 The door shell 112 shown is located on the lower side of the culture space 12a. After removing the bed board and other structures between the bed board and the door shell 112 in the culture space 12a, the door shell 112 can be lifted upwards to separate it from the seat 111, thereby opening the door shell 112. In some embodiments, the door shell 112 may also be part of the outer shell of the base 11. The door shell 112 can be opened by rotation or by separating it from the seat 111. The second airflow channel 11c is provided to facilitate the connection between the air outlet 30a of the fan 30 and the first airflow channel 10a. By forming the second airflow channel 11c between the seat 111 and the door shell 112, the side of the door shell 112 and the seat 111 that are close to each other can be cleaned and disinfected after the door shell 112 is opened. This is equivalent to cleaning and disinfecting the inside of the second airflow channel 11c, thereby better preventing bacteria from growing in the second airflow channel 11c and harming the health of the infant.

[0117] In other embodiments, the second airflow channel 11c may not be provided. For example, the air outlet 30a of the fan 30 may be directly connected to the first airflow channel 10a.
