Referring to fig. 1, the present application provides a pulse acquisition apparatus 1000. The pulse acquisition device 1000 mainly includes two pulse acquisition components: the first acquisition assembly 100 and the second acquisition assembly 200 are respectively used for acquiring pulse signals of the left hand and the right hand of a user, and the first acquisition assembly 100 and the second acquisition assembly 200 are respectively used for acquiring pulse signals of the left hand and the right hand of the user. The pulse acquisition device further comprises a host 500 in some embodiments, and the first acquisition component 100 and the second acquisition component 200 are respectively installed on the host 500; the electronic device of the pulse acquisition apparatus 1000 is disposed in the host 500.

The first acquisition assembly 100 includes a first grip portion 110 and a first support portion 120, while the second acquisition assembly 200 includes a second grip portion 210 and a second support portion 220. The first holding part 110 is used for holding by a left hand of a user, so that the angle of the left hand of the user is fixed; the second holding part is used for holding the user by the right hand, so that the angle of the right hand of the user is fixed. The first supporting portion 120 and the second supporting portion 220 are respectively used for supporting the left arm and the right arm of the user, so that the burden of the user is reduced, the left hand angle of the user is further fixed in an auxiliary manner, and the position accuracy of the sensing device on the wrist of the user when the user collects pulse signals by self-service is improved.

The sensing device of the pulse capturing device 1000 needs to be covered on a relevant portion of the wrist (such as a radial artery position of the wrist) of the user to capture the pulse signal. Taking the first collecting assembly 100 as an example, the first collecting assembly 100 includes a first driving device 130 and a first sensor assembly 140, where the first driving device 130 is used to drive the first sensor assembly 140 to move towards a direction of pressing the radial surface of the wrist of the left hand of the user, so that the first sensor assembly 140 collects the radial artery pulse signal of the wrist of the left hand of the user. For example, in some embodiments, the first sensor assembly 140 is free or at a distance from the user's wrist when not being driven to compress the user's wrist so that the user places the arm in place. The first drive 130 can be realized in various ways, for example on the basis of an eccentric, a screw, a linkage or an airbag. Similar to the first acquisition assembly 100, the second acquisition assembly 200 includes a second driving device and a second sensor assembly, where the second driving device is configured to drive the second sensor assembly to move in a direction of pressing against a radial surface of the wrist of the right hand of the user, so as to acquire radial artery pulse signals of the wrist of the right hand of the user between the second sensor assemblies.

In addition, the pulse acquisition apparatus 1000 further includes an information processing component for processing related information, such as communicating with the first sensor component and the second sensor component and acquiring corresponding sensing information, storing and processing data, communicating with other devices, and the like.

In some embodiments, the first driving device and the second driving device are implemented based on an air bag, so that a comfortable use experience is provided for a user, and positioning accuracy is improved by increasing a contact surface. Referring to fig. 2, the first acquisition component is still illustrated. The primary collection assembly 100 includes a primary bladder 130 and a primary sensor assembly 140, wherein the primary bladder 130, when inflated, drives the primary sensor assembly 140 to move in a direction to compress the user's left hand radial surface, e.g., the primary sensor assembly 140 is mounted directly on the surface of the primary bladder 130 on the side near the user's wrist, or the primary sensor assembly 140 is mounted on another component, and this component may be driven by the primary bladder 130 and drive the primary sensor assembly 140 to move together. Similarly, the secondary collection assembly 200 includes a secondary bladder and a secondary sensor assembly, wherein inflation of the secondary bladder drives the secondary sensor assembly in a direction to compress the user's right hand radial surface. At this time, the pulse collecting device 1000 further includes an air pump electrically connected with the aforementioned information processing component, and the information processing component controls the air pump to work, for example, controls the air pump to inflate the first air bag 130 and the second air bag. In some embodiments, the air pump is mounted within the host 500.

In some embodiments, the first collection assembly 100 further includes a first air bag barrel 150, through which the left hand arm of the user passes for positioning of the arm of the user, and accommodates the first air bag 130, the first sensor assembly 140, etc., such as the first air bag 130 being fixedly mounted in the first air bag barrel 150. Based on the aforementioned securement of the first bladder cartridge 150 to the user's arm, the positioning of the first sensor assembly 140 on the user's wrist surface will be more accurate. In some embodiments, the first balloon 130 is annular and is used to wrap the left wrist of the user, so that better positioning can be provided without generating larger local pressure to cause discomfort of the user, and the acquisition success rate of the pulse signals of the user is improved. Similarly, the second acquisition assembly 200 further includes a second balloon barrel 250 for the user's right hand arm to pass therethrough for arm positioning by the user, and houses the second balloon, second sensor assembly, etc. described above, and in some embodiments the second balloon is annular and is used to wrap around the user's right wrist.

In some embodiments, to ensure the comfort of the user and in some cases the safety of the user, the pulse acquisition device 1000 further includes an air bag release assembly 400 electrically connected to the information processing assembly, and when the air bag release assembly 400 is triggered, the information processing assembly controls the air pump to release the first air bag 130 and the second air bag, for example, the information processing assembly controls the air pump to stop inflating the first air bag and the second air bag, or the information processing assembly controls the air pump to deflate the first air bag and the second air bag, or the information processing assembly controls the air pump to enter the air pumping state, so as to reduce the pressure exerted on the wrist of the user by the first sensor assembly and the second sensor assembly as soon as possible, thereby avoiding safety accidents. Wherein the above-described airbag release assembly optionally includes a first release unit 410 and/or a second release unit 420. The first release unit 410 (if any) is disposed on the first grip portion 110, for example, the first release unit 410 is implemented based on a touch switch, a micro switch, or a push switch, and is triggered when the user presses/touches or is triggered when the user stops pressing/touching; the second release unit 420 (if any) is disposed on the second grip portion 210, for example, the second release unit 420 is implemented based on a touch switch, a micro switch, or a push switch, and is triggered when the user presses/touches or is triggered when the user stops pressing/touching.

It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the implementation of the first and second release units 410 and 420 is only exemplary and not intended to limit the embodiments of the present application; any implementation of the first and second release units 410, 420 that may be present in the present application or later is applicable to the present application, is within the scope of the present application and is incorporated herein by reference.

Wherein, to ensure the safety of the user, the airbag release assembly 400 includes the first release unit 410 and the second release unit 420 in some embodiments, and when either the first release unit 410 or the second release unit 420 is triggered, the airbag release assembly 400 is considered to be released, wherein the first release unit 410 and the second release unit 420 are configured to be triggered when the user stops pressing/touching. Therefore, only when the user simultaneously grips the first grip portion 110 and the second grip portion 210 (or simultaneously presses the push switches on the left and right sides), the air pump inflates the first air bag and the second air bag, otherwise, when the user releases either side grip portion (or releases either side push switch), the inflation action of the air pump is stopped, and the first air bag and the second air bag are released, thereby protecting the personal safety of the user. In one embodiment, the first release unit 410 and the second release unit 420 (for example, the first release unit 410 and the second release unit 420 are both touch or press switches) are connected in series to an input end of the information processing component, and are respectively configured to:

-conducting when touched or pressed by a user and considered to be in an unactuated state;

off when the user stops touching or pressing and is considered to be in a triggered state.

Of course, the above-described embodiments are merely examples, and are not intended to limit the application in any way; other embodiments, whether presently existing or later to be developed, are suitable for use with the present application and are intended to be encompassed within the scope of the application as described herein. For example, the output signals of the first release unit 410 and the second release unit 420 are respectively input signals of an and circuit, and the output signals of the and circuit are input signals of an information processing component.

In some embodiments, the sensor assembly on each side includes a plurality of sensor units to increase the acquisition success rate of pulse information. Taking the first sensor assembly 140 as an example, referring to fig. 3, the first sensor assembly 140 includes a plurality (e.g., 3) of first sensor units 141, and the sensor assembly 140 moves in the arrow direction in fig. 3 when driven to cover the surface of the user's wrist (in a state as in fig. 4); these first sensor units 141 are circumferentially distributed at the left wrist position of the user and are arranged towards the wrist surface of the user, so that a larger coverage is provided on the wrist surface of the user, and it is ensured that the radial pulse signal of the user can be captured and collected by the at least one sensor unit 141, so as to ensure a higher pulse signal collection efficiency. The second sensor assembly, like this, comprises a number (e.g. 3) of second sensor units; these second sensor units are circumferentially distributed at the right wrist position of the user and are arranged towards the wrist surface of the user.

Of course, the pulse signal acquisition efficiency can be ensured in other ways. For example, in some embodiments, the first sensor assembly and the second sensor assembly are movably mounted, in particular the first sensor assembly and the second sensor assembly are circumferentially movable relative to the respective wrists of the user, so as to adjust the relative positions of the sensor assemblies and the wrists of the user. At this time, the first sensor assembly and the second sensor assembly are respectively provided with a sensor unit, so that the cost is saved.

Optionally, in the case that the first sensor assembly and the second sensor assembly are movably mounted, the first sensor assembly and the second sensor assembly may also respectively include a plurality of sensor units as described above, so as to reduce the movement amount of the sensor assemblies during the adjustment process and ensure the acquisition efficiency of the pulse signals to the greatest extent.

The sensor unit in each embodiment of the application is used for detecting the pressure change generated when the artery beats and converting the pressure change into an electric signal which can be more intuitively observed and detected. A common pulse sensor unit belongs to a micro-pressure sensor, and the output mode can comprise analog output and digital output, and the pressure process of pulse beating is converted into an electric signal through micro-pressure materials (such as a piezoelectric sheet, a bridge and the like) and is output.

The first holding portion 110 and the second holding portion 210 are vertically disposed in some embodiments, so that the user can hold the first holding portion 110 and the second holding portion 210 with their two hands opposite to each other, which is convenient for accurate positioning of the wrist collection portion of the user.

In some embodiments, the pulse harvesting apparatus 1000 further comprises an input component (e.g., keyboard, microphone, etc.) and an output component (e.g., speaker, display screen, etc.), the input component and the output component respectively communicating with the information processing component; optionally, the information processing component, the input component and the output component are all installed in the host 500, so that the user can input related information and obtain an output analysis result.

In some embodiments, the first acquisition assembly 100 and the second acquisition assembly 200 are not fixedly mounted on the host computer 500, but may be swingably (or rotatably) mounted on the host computer 500, thereby providing a comfortable operating experience for users of different heights. For example, referring to fig. 5, the first collecting assembly 100 and the second collecting assembly 200 are respectively installed on the host 500 through a rotating shaft or a link mechanism, and the first collecting assembly 100 and the second collecting assembly 200 can swing left and right in a horizontal plane relative to the host 500, so that a user can find the most comfortable arm bending angle, interference in collecting pulse information is reduced, and accuracy of the pulse information is improved.

The above details the specific embodiments of the pulse acquisition apparatus including the first acquisition assembly 100 and the second acquisition assembly 200. Of course, in some embodiments, only one side of the acquisition component is provided, and pulse information acquisition can also be realized. According to another aspect of the present application, there is also provided a pulse acquisition apparatus including a third acquisition component and an information processing component. The third acquisition component is used for acquiring pulse information of a user and comprises a third holding part, a third supporting part, a third driving device and a third sensor component; the third holding part is used for holding by a user, the third supporting part is used for supporting the arm of the user, and the third driving device drives the third sensor assembly to move towards the direction of pressing the radial surface of the user during working. The information processing component communicates with the third acquisition component. In the pulse collecting device, the components (e.g., the third collecting component, the third holding portion, the third supporting portion, the third driving device, the third sensor component, and the information processing component) in the pulse collecting device respectively operate in the same or substantially the same manner as the corresponding components (e.g., the first collecting component, the first holding portion, the first supporting portion, the first driving device, the first sensor component, and the information processing component) in the above embodiments without contradiction, which are not repeated herein and are incorporated herein by reference.

It will be evident to those skilled in the art that the application is not limited to the details of the foregoing illustrative embodiments, and that the present application may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof. The present embodiments are, therefore, to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, the scope of the application being indicated by the appended claims rather than by the foregoing description, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein.

A plurality of units or means recited in the apparatus claims can also be implemented by means of one unit or means in software or hardware. The terms "first," "second," and the like are used to denote a name, but not to denote any particular order.
