Embodiment approach 1

[0037] Embodiment 1 is an ear canal cleaning tool capable of preventing camera blur and attracting foreign matter in the ear canal.

[0038] 〔Configuration of the ear canal cleaner〕

[0039] Appropriate reference below Figure 1 to Figure 11 , the configuration of the ear canal cleaning tool according to Embodiment 1 will be described.

[0040] Such as figure 1 As shown, the ear canal cleaning appliance 100 has a main body part 200 and a control part 300 .

[0041] Such as Figure 1 ~ Figure 3 As shown, the main body part 200 has a rod-like oblong shape, and the front end thereof has a front end part 210 that the operator grasps with fingers to support the main body part 200 . The end portion 210 has an anti-slip groove, and the operator can easily hold the main body portion 200 .

[0042] Such as Figure 1 ~ Figure 4 As shown, an imaging tube 220 inserted into the ear canal and outputting images in the ear canal and a suction tube 230 arranged along the imaging tube 220...

Embodiment approach 2

[0082] Embodiment 2 is an ear canal cleaning tool 100 of a type that does not have the function of preventing camera blur like Embodiment 1. FIG. Therefore, the ear canal cleaning tool 100 according to the second embodiment only has the function of being able to attract foreign matter in the ear canal.

[0083] 〔Configuration of the ear canal cleaner〕

[0084] Figure 14 It is a structural diagram of the ear canal cleaning tool of Embodiment 2. right figure 1 with Figure 14 It can be clearly seen from the comparison that the ear canal cleaning appliance 100 of Embodiment 2 is an appliance after removing the heater 245 and the heater control part 320 from the ear canal cleaning appliance 100 of Embodiment 1.

[0085] The configuration of the ear canal cleaning tool 100 according to Embodiment 2 is the same as that of the ear canal cleaning device 100 according to Embodiment 1 except for the heater 245 and the heater control unit 320 .

[0086] 〔Function of ear canal cleanin...

Embodiment approach 3

[0095] Embodiment 3 is an embodiment of the ear canal examination tool of the present invention. The ear canal inspection instrument according to Embodiment 3 does not have the function of attracting foreign matter in the ear canal like Embodiment 1, but only has the function of preventing camera blur.

[0096] 〔Configuration of ear canal examination equipment〕

[0097] Figure 15 It is a configuration diagram of an ear canal inspection tool. right figure 1 with Figure 15 It can be clearly seen from the comparison that the ear canal inspection device 150 is the device after removing the suction tube 230 , the dust collection pipeline 232 , the pipeline 265 , and the suction pump 330 from the ear canal cleaning device 100 of Embodiment 1.

[0098] The configuration of the ear canal inspection tool 150 is the same as that of the ear canal cleaning tool 100 according to Embodiment 1 except for the suction tube 230 , the dust collecting duct 232 , the duct 265 , and the sucti...

Abstract

The invention relates to an auditory canal cleaning tool and an auditory canal observing tool. An image capturing tube 220 adapted to be inserted into one's auditory canal to output an image of an interior of the auditory canal, a suction tube 230 provided along the image capturing tube 220 to suck a foreign matter in the interior of the auditory canal, and a main body unit 200 provided with the image capturing tube 220 and the suction tube 230 are included. The image capturing tube 220 includes a camera 240 adapted to capture the image of the interior of the auditory canal, and to a tip end of the suction tube 230, a dust collecting tube 232 is attached.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an ear canal cleaning appliance for removing foreign objects in the ear canal and an ear canal inspection appliance for observing the inside of the ear canal. Background technique [0002] Needless to say, it is also necessary for small and medium-sized animals to clean the ear canal. Various forms of earwax such as dry earwax, wet earwax, and detritus earwax will be produced in the ear canal. Especially small and medium-sized animals, it is easy to parasitize tiny animals such as mites and lice in the ear canal. Therefore, in order to detect abnormalities in the ear canals of humans and small and medium-sized animals at an early stage, it is necessary to regularly check and clean the ear canals. [0003] When people clean the ear canal, they usually insert the ear scoop into the ear canal to remove the earwax by feeling. However, when groping in the ear canal with the ear pick, the tip of the ear pick may cause damage to th...
