Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of disinfection cases, and particularly to a disinfection case for anesthetic instruments.

Background Art

[0002] The anesthesiology department is a comprehensive discipline with a wide range including interdisciplinary knowledge. It not only meets the requirements of surgeries but also participates in the emergency treatment in various emergency rooms. In that case, since medical instruments need to be disinfected before and after use, a disinfection case becomes an essential medical tool for the anesthesiology department.

[0003] According to the search of past applications, it can be seen that a disinfection case for anesthetic instruments was disclosed in a Chinese utility model (No. CN219579461U). The disinfection case for anesthetic instruments comprises a case body, a driving mechanism installed at the top of the case body, and a sliding mechanism installed in the inner cavity of the case body. The driving mechanism has an electric motor, a belt pulley is provided at the bottom of the output end of the electric motor, a belt is wound around the outer walls of two sets of the belt pulleys, a screw rod is provided at the bottom of each of the two sets of the belt pulleys, and the sliding mechanism is located on the outer wall of the screw rod and meshes with the screw rod.

[0004] In the above-mentioned published document, mainly by combining an ultrasonic cleaner with a disinfectant solution to disinfect instruments such as parts of the equipment, the role of disinfection can be achieved to a certain extent, but there are still some defects in actual use. For example, only one layer of a tray used to place articles to be disinfected is provided. According to the immersion disinfection method of the disinfectant solution according to the disinfection method, it is necessary to control the immersion time according to the material for immersing the instruments to be disinfected. For example, the immersion time for synthetic rubber parts cannot exceed 15 minutes, otherwise it is easy to damage the parts. For the same reason, the immersion times for different parts and instruments are also different. When performing immersion and disinfection together for any instrument, problems such as insufficient immersion and disinfection time for some instruments leading to incomplete disinfection or excessive immersion and disinfection time causing damage are likely to occur, and the usage becomes very inconvenient.

[0005] In order to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks, the present invention proposes a disinfection case for anesthetic instruments.

[0018] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 7, the disinfection case for anesthetic instruments according to the present invention comprises a case body 1. The partition plate 2 and the top plate 5 are fixedly connected inside the case body 1. The top plate 5 is located above the partition plate 2. The inside of the case body 1 is separated into a disinfection chamber 3 and a cleaning chamber 4 by the partition plate 2. The parallel movement mechanism is attached to the top of the top plate 5, the lifting mechanism is attached below the top plate 5, the shelf for the storage cage is attached below the lifting mechanism, the shelf for the storage cage is located in the disinfection chamber 3, and the cleaning pipe is attached in the cleaning chamber 4.

[0019] The parallel movement mechanism has a reduction electric motor 7. The reduction electric motor 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the top plate 5. The output shaft of the reduction electric motor 7 is fixedly connected to a threaded rod 8. The end of the threaded rod 8 is rotatably connected to the inner side wall of the case body 1 through a bearing. The threaded rod 8 houses a bearing cylinder 9. The threaded rod 8 is connected to the bearing cylinder 9 by a screw. An opening 6 is opened at the top of the top plate 5. The bearing cylinder 9 passes through the opening 6. The parallel movement mechanism enables the lifting mechanism to be driven and the shelf for the storage cage dragged by the lifting mechanism to move left and right, so that the shelf for the storage cage can enter from the disinfection chamber 3 into the washing chamber 4.

[0020] The lifting mechanism has a mounting plate 10. The mounting plate 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the bearing cylinder 9. The mounting plate 10 is located below the top plate 5. The top of the mounting plate 10 is fixedly connected to two two-axis reduction electric motors 12 arranged front and back. The bearing cylinder 9 is located between the two two-axis reduction electric motors 12. Both ends of the output shafts of the two-axis reduction electric motors 12 are respectively fixedly connected to a transmission shaft 13. The end of the transmission shaft 13 is rotatably connected to the top of the mounting plate 10 through a bearing seat. The outer part of the transmission shaft 13 is fixedly connected to a wire winding wheel 14. A traction rope 15 is wound around the wire winding wheel 14. The lifting mechanism drags the shelf for the storage cage to move up and down, and in particular can drag the storage cage 16 in the shelf for the storage cage to remove the disinfectant liquid in the disinfection chamber 3 layer by layer, so that disinfection can be carried out for different times to soak different instruments, the disinfection effect is better, and the articles to be disinfected are not damaged.

[0021] The reduction motor 7 of the translation mechanism and the two-axis reduction motor 12 of the lifting mechanism are both controlled by a controller. Both of the two-axis reduction motors 12 are equipped with encoders so that they can operate synchronously, thus avoiding the problem that the storage cage shelf tilts after the pulling speeds of the four pulling ropes 15 are different. Moreover, since such a controller and encoder both belong to the prior art, they will not be repeatedly described here.

[0022] Since a predetermined amount of disinfectant liquid has been poured into the disinfection chamber 3 and the height of its liquid level is already known, when using the lifting mechanism to pull the storage cage up and down or move it up one layer at a time, it is necessary to set parameters with the controller according to the actual usage situation, but specific parameters will not be described in detail here.

[0023] One circular hole 11 is provided at each of the four corners of the top of the mounting plate 10. The circular hole 11 is located directly below the wire winding ring 14, and the pulling rope 15 passes through the circular hole 11. The circular hole 11 facilitates the passage of the pulling rope 15 and avoids interference between the pulling rope 15 and the mounting plate 10.

[0024] The storage cage shelf has a plurality of storage cages 16. The plurality of storage cages 16 are arranged vertically. Both sides of two adjacent storage cages 16 are fixedly connected to two first connection supports 17 via bolts respectively. Both sides of one side of the storage cage 16 are fixedly connected to two second connection supports 18 via bolts respectively. The end of the pulling rope 15 is fixedly connected to the second connection support 18. The storage cage shelf is composed of a plurality of storage cages 16 arranged vertically, and these storage cages 16 can be installed as 1, 2, 3 or more according to requirements, and can be assembled only by combining the first connection supports 17 with bolts. The second connection support 18 is convenient for connecting with the end of the pulling rope 15 after being installed on the topmost storage cage 16.

[0025] The cleaning pipe has three square water pipes 19 arranged vertically. The square water pipes 19 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cleaning chamber 4. The space between two adjacent square water pipes 19 is fixedly connected to a communicating pipe 21. The rear sides of the two communicating pipes 21 are fixedly connected to the same Y-shaped pipe 22. The Y-shaped pipe 22 is located inside the cleaning chamber 4 and extends to the rear side of the case body 1. When the shelf for the storage cage enters the cleaning chamber 4 and descends, the cleaning pipe can wash away the disinfectant remaining on the appliance by spraying water on it.

[0026] The rear side of the case body 1 is fixedly connected to a first drain pipe 23, a second drain pipe 24, and a water injection pipe 25. The first drain pipe 23 communicates with the inside of the cleaning chamber 4. Both the second drain pipe 24 and the water injection pipe 25 communicate with the inside of the disinfection chamber 3. The water injection pipe 25 is located above the second drain pipe 24. In addition, valves are installed on all of the first drain pipe 23, the second drain pipe 24, and the water injection pipe 25. When flushing in the cleaning chamber 4, the dirty water can be discharged through the first drain pipe 23, the disinfectant can be injected into the disinfection chamber 3 through the water injection pipe 25, and the disinfectant in the disinfection chamber 3 can be discharged through the second drain pipe 24.

[0027] The front side of the case body 1 is connected to a door panel 26 by a hinge. The door panel 26 is located above the disinfection chamber 3 and the cleaning chamber 4. When the door panel 26 is opened, it is possible to place the appliance to be disinfected or other appliances on the shelf for the storage cage, and it is also possible to take out the disinfected articles.

[0028] The operating principle of the present invention is as follows.

[0029] When disinfecting parts and appliances, first pour the disinfectant liquid into the disinfection chamber 3 in advance through the water injection pipe 25. Then, open the door plate 26 and place the items to be disinfected in the plurality of storage cages 16 on the shelf for storage cages. Then, according to the characteristics of the placed items, place the items that require a long time for immersion and disinfection in the storage cages 16 closer to the bottom, place the items that require a short time for immersion and disinfection in the storage cages 16 closer to the top, and place the items that require a time ranging from long to short for immersion and disinfection in the plurality of storage cages 16 in sequence. Next, use the lifting mechanism to pull the shelf for storage cages and lower it inside the disinfection chamber 3 to immerse it in the disinfectant liquid. After disinfection has been carried out for a certain period of time (for example, it is not recommended that the immersion time of parts made of synthetic rubber exceed 15 minutes), at this point, it is possible to use the lifting mechanism to pull the shelf for storage cages and raise it to a certain height so that the topmost storage cage 16 is separated from the liquid level of the disinfectant liquid. After the remaining storage cages 16 are immersed again for a certain period of time, the operation of using the lifting mechanism to move the next storage cage 16 in the shelf for storage cages upward again to separate it from the liquid level of the disinfectant liquid continues until the entire shelf for storage cages is separated from the disinfectant liquid to complete the immersion and disinfection. Then, under the drive of the parallel movement mechanism, the lifting mechanism can move together with the shelf for storage cages located below the lifting mechanism above the cleaning chamber 4. After that, the lifting mechanism pulls the shelf for storage cages and lowers it into the cleaning chamber 4. During this period, the cleaning pipe sprays clean water onto the items in the shelf for storage cages to wash them away to prevent the residues of the disinfectant liquid from adhering to the surface of the items.

[0030] When the parallel movement mechanism operates, it is necessary to start the reduction speed electric motor 7. Under the drive of the reduction speed electric motor 7, the threaded rod 8 rotates. Since the bearing cylinder 9 is passed through the opening 6 of the top plate 5 so that it cannot rotate together with the threaded rod 8, when the threaded rod 8 rotates, the bearing cylinder 9 must move horizontally along the threaded rod 8. During this period, the bearing cylinder 9 may move horizontally with the mounting plate 10, that is, together with the lifting mechanism.

[0031] When the lifting mechanism operates, under the drive of the two-axis reduction speed electric motor 12, the transmission shaft 13 rotates. When the transmission shaft 13 rotates, the traction rope 15 can be continuously wound using the wire winding wheel 14, so that the shelf for storage cages is pulled by the traction rope 15 to move upward and conversely is pulled to move downward.

[0032] When the cleaning pipe flushes, it is connected to an external water pipe through the Y-shaped pipe 22 so that the water source is connected. Then, clear water enters the plurality of square water pipes 19 through the communicating pipe 21, and then is blown out through the injection ports 20 inside the square water pipes 19 to flush the articles to be disinfected in the storage cage shelf.
