FOREIGN MATTER REMOVING DEVICE

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a foreign matter removing device with a relatively simple structure which can remove a foreign matter such as phlegm from the throat or the trachea without using an operator's hand. SOLUTION: This foreign matter removing device has a silicon tube 90, one end of which can be inserted into the trachea with the other end being connected to a suction source, a tube sending/retracting mechanism with a motor and rollers to transmit the drive force of a motor a tube disinfection member attached between the tube sending/retracting mechanism and the other end of the tube, and a control part to drive the motor under a prescribed condition. A foreign matter inside the trachea is sucked by sending the tube 90, then after retracting the tube, the retracted tube is disinfected by the tube disinfection member. The tube 90, the tube disinfection member, etc., are stored in the lower part of the main body, and can be exchanged to new ones.
