FLUID INTERCEPTION DEVICE FOR A MEDICAL CLEANING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240033388 titled 'FLUID INTERCEPTION DEVICE FOR A MEDICAL CLEANING SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

The disclosed invention is a fluid interception device designed for a cleaning and disinfecting system used for medical devices. It consists of a processing chamber with a hollow box-shaped condenser body. The condenser body includes a transit port that is connected to a transit duct of the cleaning and disinfecting system, as well as a vent port that allows communication with the external environment.

Key points of the invention:

• The condenser body has condensation nozzles that are in fluid communication with drain holes located in the lower portion of the body.
• Water feeding nozzles are positioned above the condensation nozzles and are in fluid communication with the transit port.
• A separation septum is placed between the condensation nozzles and water feeding nozzles, creating a condensation chamber and a feeding chamber.
• The transit port is located on the side of the feeding chamber, and the separation septum includes at least one flow port that connects the transit port with the condensation chamber.

Potential applications of this technology:

• Cleaning and disinfecting medical devices: The fluid interception device can be used in a cleaning and disinfecting system specifically designed for medical devices, ensuring effective and thorough cleaning.
• Sterilization processes: The device can be utilized in sterilization processes to remove contaminants and ensure the cleanliness of medical equipment.

Problems solved by this technology:

• Efficient condensation: The condensation nozzles and separation septum help to separate and collect condensate efficiently, preventing it from mixing with the cleaning and disinfecting solution.
• Contamination prevention: The device ensures that any fluid intercepted during the cleaning and disinfecting process is properly contained and does not contaminate the external environment.

Benefits of this technology:

• Improved cleaning and disinfection: The fluid interception device enhances the effectiveness of the cleaning and disinfecting system, ensuring thorough cleaning of medical devices.
• Reduced risk of contamination: By intercepting and containing fluids, the device minimizes the risk of contamination during the cleaning and disinfection process.
• Easy maintenance: The design of the device allows for easy cleaning and maintenance, ensuring its longevity and reliability.
