JPH079303U - Endoscope disinfection device - Google Patents

Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To facilitate the disinfection of endoscopes. [Structure] An endoscope is suspended vertically, a cover is attached to the outside of the endoscope, and a disinfectant solution is sprayed inside the cover. At the same time, the disinfectant solution is injected into the forceps channel.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an endoscope disinfecting device that is easy to handle.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Since a typical gastrointestinal endoscope has a length of 150 cm or more, it is wound in a spiral shape and immersed in a disinfectant solution for disinfection, which makes it inconvenient to handle, and because it is wound in a spiral shape, it has a dedicated area for disinfection equipment. However, this disinfection method has drawbacks such that disinfection is insufficient because the disinfectant solution does not sufficiently penetrate into the forceps channel.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 The present invention eliminates the drawbacks and simplifies handling, reduces the area occupied by the device, and further sufficiently disinfects the inside of the forceps channel.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The endoscope is suspended vertically, a cover is attached to the outer periphery of the endoscope, and a disinfectant solution is sprayed into the cover, and at the same time, the disinfectant solution is injected into the forceps channel.

[0005]

[Work]

 The main idea is to suspend the endoscope vertically and inject the disinfectant into the cover that covers the outer circumference of the endoscope to bring the disinfectant into contact with the outer side of the endoscope for disinfection. The forceps channel is sterilized by injecting an antiseptic solution into it.

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

In FIG. 1, an endoscope suspension box 1 is fixed to an appropriate height by a column 2, and a hook 3, a disinfectant solution injection hole 4 and a drying air injection hole 5 are attached. The disinfectant solution injection pipe 6 is a disinfectant solution injection hole of the endoscope suspension box 1 through which a disinfectant solution is supplied from a tank 7 provided at a lower portion of the support column 2 through a pump (not shown) installed in the tank 7. 4 to disinfect the outside of the endoscope 10. The air pipe 8 supplies an air compressor (not shown) installed inside the tank 7 to the drying air injection hole 5 provided in the endoscope suspension box 1 to dry the endoscope 10. The forceps insertion port 11 is connected by a pipe to the disinfectant solution injection pipe 6 and the disinfectant solution is injected into the forceps channel.The cover 9 is formed in a bellows-like shape so that the endoscope 10 can be suspended from the endoscope. After hanging on the hook 3 of the lowering box 1, it is extended until it reaches the endoscope hanging box 1 to cover the endoscope 10. A magnet (not shown) is installed on the upper portion of the cover 9, You may make it adsorb | suck to the iron adsorption | suction board (not shown) of the endoscope suspension box 1. Disinfectant and drying air are alternately sprayed inside a cover, and disinfection and drying are performed.

[0007]

[Effect of device]

 (B) Since the endoscope is simply hung vertically without being bent in a spiral shape, it is easy to handle and the area occupied by the device is reduced. (B) Since the disinfectant solution is injected into the forceps channel, the inside of the forceps channel can be sufficiently disinfected.
