  In recent years, endoscopes are widely used in the medical field and the industrial field. An endoscope used in the medical field observes an organ in a body cavity by inserting an elongated insertion portion into a body cavity, or inserts into an insertion channel of a treatment instrument provided in the endoscope as necessary. Various treatments can be performed using the treatment tool.

  Endoscopes in this medical field are used by being inserted into body cavities, particularly for the purpose of examination and treatment. Therefore, cleaning and disinfection are necessary to use again after use. It is well known that cleaning and disinfection of this used endoscope is automatically performed by an endoscope cleaning and disinfecting apparatus in addition to hand washing, cleaning and disinfecting.

  An endoscope cleaning / disinfecting apparatus that automatically cleans and disinfects an endoscope in this manner dilutes a chemical liquid that is a disinfecting liquid and a detergent that is a cleaning liquid to a predetermined concentration and circulates the inside of the apparatus. Thereby, the endoscope cleaning / disinfecting apparatus can clean and disinfect the endoscope installed in the cleaning / disinfecting tank.

  However, the techniques of Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 are based on the amount of liquid or the prescribed number of times that the chemical liquid stored in the chemical liquid bottle generates a practical liquid that only cleans and disinfects a used endoscope once. With this, there is only a single volume of liquid that can be used for cleaning and disinfecting the endoscope, and each time the endoscope is cleaned or disinfected, or the user replaces the liquid that has reached the specified number of times, the user must The bottle must be replaced with an endoscope cleaning and disinfection device. Therefore, it is desired that the conventional chemical solution bottle can store the chemical solution capable of generating the practical solution multiple times.

  In addition, when a conventional chemical solution bottle is attached to the endoscope cleaning / disinfecting device, the internal chemical solution may leak out and an appropriate amount of the chemical solution may not be injected into the device if the attached state is not good. That is, in the endoscope cleaning / disinfecting apparatus, unless an appropriate amount of the chemical solution is injected, the amount of the chemical solution is reduced, and a practical disinfecting solution having a predetermined concentration cannot be generated. Furthermore, if the leaked chemical solution flows to each part of the device that is not waterproofed, there is a possibility that the part will be corroded.

  In addition, since the chemical liquid in the conventional chemical liquid bottle is injected into the apparatus due to its own weight drop, a small amount of liquid may remain in the chemical liquid bottle. Even when the chemical solution bottle with the remaining chemical solution is replaced, a small amount of the remaining chemical solution may leak and flow to each part of the apparatus.

  Furthermore, the conventional chemical solution bottle can be easily removed from the endoscope cleaning / disinfecting apparatus. Therefore, even when the chemical solution remains in the chemical solution bottle, if the user accidentally removes the chemical solution bottle from the endoscope cleaning / disinfecting device, the chemical solution may leak and flow to each part of the device.

  Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and the object of the present invention is to provide an appropriate amount from a bottle in which a concentrated solution capable of cleaning and disinfecting the endoscope for a predetermined number of times is stored. It is an object of the present invention to provide an endoscope cleaning / disinfecting apparatus capable of feeding a concentrated liquid into the apparatus and preventing the concentrated liquid from leaking from the bottle when the bottle is attached and replaced.

Since operations in the cleaning process, the disinfection process, and the rinsing process of the endoscope 101 performed by the endoscope cleaning / disinfecting apparatus 1 are performed in the same manner as in the past, detailed description of each of these processes is omitted. In addition, the endoscope cleaning / disinfecting apparatus 1 executes the above-described alcohol flush process which is a drying process after the rinsing process is completed.

  Further, the control unit 91 of the endoscope cleaning / disinfecting apparatus 1 includes a CPU 91a and a memory 91b as shown in FIG. The memory 91b of the control unit 91 stores the number of times that the chemical solution in the medicine bottle 41 and the set number of generations of the disinfecting practical liquid and the cleaning practical liquid with respect to the amount of liquid stored in the detergent bottle 42 are stored.

  In other words, the CPU 91a refers to the memory 91b, and can generate a preset amount of medicine used in the medicine bottle 41 that can generate a plurality of disinfecting practical liquids and a plurality of cleaning practical liquids. The amount of detergent used in the available detergent bottle 42 is calculated.

  Specifically, the amount of use of the medicine in the medicine bottle 41 is measured by the water level sensor 28a disposed in the chemical liquid tank 28, and the number of uses is counted by the CPU 91a and stored in the memory 91b. . In the medicine bottle 41, the amount of medicine liquid corresponding to the preset number of uses is stored, and the CPU 91a gives an instruction to replace the medicine bottle 41 when the medicine usage amount reaches the set amount. At this time, the medicine bottle 41 is in an empty state where the internal medicine has been used up.

  Further, the amount of usage of the detergent in the detergent bottle 42 is measured by the flow meter 65 disposed in the detergent supply line 66, and the number of uses is counted by the CPU 91a and stored in the memory 91b. In the detergent bottle 42, the amount of detergent is stored for a preset number of times of use, and the CPU 91a gives an instruction to replace the detergent bottle 42 when the detergent reaches the set usage amount. At this time, the detergent bottle 42 is in an empty state where the internal detergent has been used up.

  These replacement instructions are provided on the apparatus main body 2 with a liquid crystal monitor, a warning light, etc. (not shown). Thereby, the user can recognize the replacement time of the medicine bottle 41 and the detergent bottle 42.

  Then, when the medicine bottle 41 and the detergent bottle 42 are empty, the CPU 91a drives the solenoids 81 arranged in the bottle mounting portions 44 and 45 shown in FIGS. The lock member 76 that has fixed the tray 72 is rotated against the urging force of the spring 82 to be released. That is, the solenoid 81 rotates the lock member 76 around the rotation shaft portion 77 so that the lock body 76 a is detached from the lock hole 72 a of the bottle tray 72. As a result, the bottle tray 72 is slidable along the rail 75. That is, the user can replace the drug bottle 41 and the detergent bottle 42 by pulling out the unlocked bottle tray 72.

  The lock member 76, the solenoid 81, the spring 82, and the lock hole 72a of the bottle tray 72 are respectively connected to the mouths 47 and 48 of the medicine bottle 41 and the detergent bottle 42 placed on the bottle tray 72.

An example of control that is sometimes executed by the control unit 91 will be described below.
When a start switch (not shown) provided on the operation panel 9 is turned on from the standby state, the control unit 91 of the endoscope cleaning / disinfecting apparatus 1 executes a control example according to the flowchart of FIG. That is, the control unit 91 first determines whether or not the start switch is turned on (S1).

  When the start switch is turned on, the controller 91 determines whether or not each door detection sensor 80 is turned on (S2). That is, an ON signal is input from the door detection sensor 80 to the controller 91 when the doors 6 to 8 of the apparatus body 2 are closed.

  And if the ON signal is input from each door detection sensor 80, the control part 91 will start the liquid supply of a chemical | medical agent, a detergent, and alcohol from each bottle 41-43 according to the set washing | cleaning disinfection programming ( S3).

  First, in the disinfection process, the medicine in the medicine bottle 41 is sent to the chemical liquid tank 28, and the amount of liquid for generating one disinfection practical liquid is measured by the water level sensor 28a. That is, the control unit 91 drives the compressor 51 to switch the air supply path switching valve 58 provided in the air supply pipe 61 so that pressurized air is supplied to the medicine bottle side air supply pipe 60. When the water level sensor 28a detects the liquid amount of the predetermined medicine, the control unit 91 drives the pressure release switching valve 56 to the open side to stop the medicine from the medicine bottle 41. To do.

  Further, in the cleaning process, the detergent in the detergent bottle 42 is sent to the cleaning tank 4, and the amount of liquid for generating a single cleaning practical liquid is measured by the flow meter 65. That is, the control unit 91 drives the compressor 51 to switch the air supply path switching valve 58 provided in the air supply pipe 61 so that pressurized air is supplied to the detergent bottle side air supply pipe 59. When the flow amount of the predetermined detergent is detected by the flow meter 65, the controller 91 drives the pressure release switching valve 56 to the atmosphere release side to stop the delivery of the detergent from the detergent bottle 42. To do.

  Further, in the alcohol flush process, the alcohol in the alcohol bottle 43 is fed to the endoscope 101 of the cleaning tank 4, and the amount of the alcohol required for drying is measured by the flow meter 69. That is, the control unit 91 drives the compressor 51 to switch the air supply path switching valve 57 provided in the air supply pipe 61 so that pressurized air is supplied to the alcohol bottle side air supply pipe 67. When the predetermined amount of alcohol is detected by the flow meter 69, the controller 91 drives the pressure release switching valve 56 to open to the atmosphere release side, and stops feeding alcohol from the alcohol bottle 43. To do.

  Even during the feeding of these drugs, detergents, and alcohols, the controller 91 determines whether or not an ON signal is input from each door detection sensor 80 (S4). In each step, an ON signal is continuously input from each door detection sensor 80, and as described above, a predetermined amount of medicine, detergent, or alcohol is sent by each sensor 28a, 65, 69. Is detected, the control part 91 complete | finishes liquid feeding (S5).

  That is, the state in which the ON signal is continuously input from the door detection sensor 80 to the control unit 91 is that the medicine, the detergent, and the alcohol bottles 41 to 43 are respectively attached. In this state, the door portions 6 to 8 of 46 are closed.

  On the other hand, if the ON signal is not input from any of the door detection sensors 80 in step S2, the control unit 91 drives the warning display device 9a and the warning device 98 to give a warning (S6). That is, in this state, any one of the doors 6 to 8 of the medicine, the detergent, and the alcohol bottle mounting portions 44 to 46 is open. Thereby, the user can recognize that any one of the door portions 6 to 8 is open. In addition, the control part 91 will stop drive control of the warning indicator 9a and the alarm 98, if each door part 6-8 is closed.

  In step S4, if no ON signal is input from any of the door detection sensors 80, the controller 91 drives the pressure release switching valve 56 to the atmosphere release side (S7) and stops the compressor 51. After (OFF) (S8), the warning indicator 9a and the alarm 98 are driven to give a warning (S9). That is, when any of the door parts 6 to 8 of the alcohol bottle mounting parts 44 to 46 is accidentally opened by the user while the drug, detergent, or alcohol is being fed from each bottle 41 to 43, The controller 91 turns ON the pressure release switching valve 56 to the atmosphere release side to lower the internal pressure of each bottle 41 to 43 and stops the drive of the compressor 51. Thereby, the internal pressure of each bottle 41-43 falls to atmospheric pressure.

  Then, the user can recognize that one of the door portions 6 to 8 is open by driving the warning display 9a and the alarm 98. At this time, when the user inspects each of the door portions 6 to 8, closes any of the open door portions 6 to 8, and turns on the start switch again, the stopped liquid supply is started. be able to.

  That is, after the warning in step S9, the control unit 91 enters a standby state for determining whether or not the start switch is turned on (S10). When the start switch is turned on, the control unit 91 proceeds to step S4. And the control part 91 drives the compressor 51 and the pressure release switching valve 56, and restarts the liquid supply of the chemical | medical agent, detergent, or alcohol which was stopped on the way. In addition, the control part 91 will stop drive control of the warning indicator 9a and the alarm 98, if each door part 6-8 is closed.

  As described above, the endoscope cleaning / disinfecting apparatus 1 according to the present embodiment is configured so that the door part 6 of the medicine bottle attaching part 44, the door part 7 of the detergent bottle attaching part 45, and the alcohol bottle attaching part 46 at the start of the process. The user is warned that the door 8 is open. In addition, the endoscope cleaning / disinfecting apparatus 1 pressurizes when the doors 6 to 8 are accidentally opened by the user while the drug, detergent, or alcohol liquid from the bottles 41 to 43 is being fed. Air supply is stopped, the pressure in each bottle 41 to 43 is reduced to atmospheric pressure, and a warning is given that the doors 6 to 8 are opened.

  From the above, in the configuration in which pressurized air is supplied and the liquid in each bottle 41 to 43 is fed as in the endoscope cleaning and disinfecting apparatus 1 of the present embodiment, when the door portions 6 to 8 are opened, Since the pressure in each bottle 41-43 is reduced to atmospheric pressure, it can prevent that the chemical | medical agent, detergent, or alcohol in each bottle 41-43 ejects from the mouth parts 47 and 48 and leaks.

  Further, as described above, in the endoscope cleaning / disinfecting apparatus 1, the medicine bottle 41 attached to the medicine bottle attaching portion 44 and the detergent bottle 42 attached to the detergent bottle attaching portion 45 are used up of the medicine and the detergent. Otherwise, the fixing mechanism constituted by the lock hole 72a of the bottle tray 72 and the lock body 76a of the lock member 76 is not released and cannot be taken out. Therefore, in the endoscope cleaning and disinfecting apparatus 1, when the door portions 6 and 7 are opened, the medicine and the detergent leak out by the configuration in which the pressure in each bottle 41 and 42 is reduced to the atmospheric pressure and the fixing mechanism. This is configured to prevent double.

  In addition, as described above, the endoscope cleaning / disinfecting apparatus 1 can take out the alcohol bottle 43 attached to the alcohol bottle attachment unit 46 by arbitrarily releasing the fixing mechanism by the user. When opened, the pressure in the alcohol bottle 43 is reduced to atmospheric pressure, and the alcohol can be prevented from leaking. In the present embodiment, the alcohol bottle 43 is configured so that the user can arbitrarily remove it from the alcohol bottle mounting portion 46. The reason is that alcohol touches the human body as compared with the concentrated liquid medicine and detergent. However, it is a liquid that has almost no effect, so that it can be immediately vaporized into the atmosphere. However, the alcohol bottle mounting unit 46 has the same configuration as the drug bottle mounting unit 44 for mounting the drug bottle 41 and the detergent bottle mounting unit 45 for mounting the detergent bottle 42, and the user can arbitrarily remove the alcohol bottle 43. A configuration that cannot be used is also acceptable.
