Description

Ring type detection equipment

Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to ring type detection devices, and more particularly, to a ring type detection device for detecting various physiological indexes of a human body.

Background

With the development of society and the living standard of people, the requirements of people on medical treatment and nursing level are increasing, and especially the requirements of the aging population on the detection of daily physiological indexes are more comprehensive. Therefore, with the development of electronic technology, medical detection apparatuses are increasingly miniaturized and portable, so that detection services of real-time physiological indexes can be provided for various users.

However, various portable detection instruments currently cannot realize diversified detection. Non-invasive detection is also not possible for detection of e.g. blood glucose indicators. Although the existing physiological index detectors achieve miniaturization and portability, the detectors still have problems in the aspect of real-time monitoring of some physiological indexes.

For example, real-time monitoring of arterial blood oxygen concentration is important in clinical rescue. Many clinical diseases cause a lack of oxygen supply, which directly affects the normal metabolism of cells, and seriously threatens human life, requiring real-time blood oxygen concentration detection for some specific patients. Although many small portable medical testing instruments are currently on the market, there are a number of inconveniences with these instruments. For example, portable oximeter devices for measuring the blood oxygenation of a person are typically of the finger cuff or finger clip type construction. The blood oxygen detecting instrument is convenient, and can detect the blood oxygen saturation value of a user only by inserting a finger into a finger stall or placing the finger stall between two finger splints when in use. Therefore, the oximeter has a simple structure and is convenient to use. However, such finger cuffs and fingergrip devices typically require a certain amount of clamping force, which can cause inconvenience to the user's finger movements during the measurement process, greatly affecting the user's daily work and life. Also, if the user needs to monitor the blood oxygen level of the human body in real time for a long time, such clamping force may cause the finger to be in a state of poor blood circulation for a long time, resulting in necrosis of the finger and discrepancy between the detected blood oxygen saturation and the actual physiological index of the user. Moreover, some existing ring-type detection devices mostly employ both finger-grip and wrap-type detection devices, which can be removed during use at night. Or some ring-type detection equipment adopts winding type, so that the winding type operation is complicated, and the ring-type detection equipment is particularly unfriendly to the old. Whether it is a clip-on or wrap-around type inspection apparatus or a wrap-around type inspection apparatus, the breathability is poor and perspiration is easily caused by long-term wear. It is therefore desirable to employ a finger ring type detection device that is relatively easy to adjust and which does not completely encase the finger for ventilation.

Disclosure of Invention

The present disclosure proposes a ring-type detection apparatus including: a finger ring body made of soft rubber, wherein the inner side surface of the finger ring body is provided with a sensing element and a plurality of columnar bulges uniformly and alternately arranged on the inner side surface, so that when a finger passes through the inner side surface, the sensing element abuts against the abdomen of the finger to detect physiological signals, and the columnar bulges abut against the back and the side of the finger; and the locking assembly comprises a lock catch and a locking strip, wherein the lock catch is fixedly connected to one end of the opening, one or more lock holes through which the locking strip can pass are formed, one end of the locking strip is fixedly connected with the other end of the opening, the locking strip is provided with a plurality of protruding clamping strips which are uniformly distributed along the extending direction of the locking strip and perpendicular to the extending direction and can be elastically deformed, so that when the locking strip passes through one lock hole, the protruding clamping strips restore to be original after passing through the lock hole due to elastic deformation caused by extrusion of the lock hole, and the locking strip and the lock catch are connected, so that the ring-shaped body and the locking assembly form a closed ring together, and the sensing element is abutted against the finger abdomen of the finger for physiological signal detection.

According to the ring-type detection device, when the lock catch is pressed and bent towards the other end of the opening, the protruding clamping strip close to the lock hole is pressed and elastically deformed to pass through the lock hole, and then the ring-type body is gradually loosened.

According to the finger ring type detection device, the width of the lock hole of the lock catch is smaller than the thickness of the protruding clamping strip of the lock strip, so that the protruding clamping strip is blocked by the lock hole after the protruding clamping strip is deformed to pass through the lock hole in a pressing mode.

The finger ring type detection device according to the present disclosure, wherein the battery is a disposable battery or a rechargeable battery.

Therefore, according to the ring-type detection device disclosed by the disclosure, the ring-type detection device is comfortable to wear and is easy to operate due to the mode of soft rubber. Moreover, one row of ribs or protruding clamping strips are arranged on one side to serve as buckling positions, the function of adjusting the size is completed by matching with the lock hole on the other side, and the scheme can be used by fingers with different sizes. In addition, the inner side dense flax distribution columns or columnar bulges can increase the air permeability of the soft rubber, and the comfort is increased to a greater extent. In addition, the structure for preventing the pull handle position from being pulled out excessively by force is additionally arranged on the locking strip or the pull handle position, so that the complex use and operation are avoided.

In order that those skilled in the art will better understand the present disclosure, the present disclosure will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and detailed description. For convenience of description, the following description will be mainly made in terms of the way in which the blood oxygen sensing element is mounted in the test apparatus.

Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a ring detection apparatus according to the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 1, the finger ring type detection apparatus of the present disclosure includes a finger ring type body 10 and a locking assembly, wherein the locking assembly includes a latch 16 and a locking bar 11. The ring-shaped body 10 is made of soft rubber into an open ring shape. The inner side surface of the ring body 10 is provided with sensing elements 14 and a plurality of columnar projections 13 uniformly spaced apart from the inner side surface such that the sensing elements 14 perform physiological signal detection against the abdomen of the finger and the columnar projections 13 abut against the back and side of the finger when the finger passes through the inner side surface. Thus, due to the uniform spacing of the columnar projections 13, the inner side of the ring-shaped body 10 is not completely fitted with the fingers, and the fingers caused by the completely fitted fingers are squeezed to cause unsmooth blood flow. The incomplete finger fitting state is that the detected finger brings certain air circulation, so that the condition that the temperature of the finger rises due to long-time finger fitting is avoided. It should be noted that the height of the sensing element 14 protruding from the inner side of the finger ring type body 10 is the same as the height of the columnar protrusion 13 protruding from the inner side of the finger ring type body 10, so that the sensing element 14 is not disturbed by external light when it is used as a kind of light sensing element.

Referring to fig. 1, a shackle 16 of a locking assembly is fixedly coupled to one end of the opening and defines one or more locking apertures 17 through which the locking bar 11 may pass. One end of the locking strip 11 is fixedly connected with the other end of the opening. The locking bar 11 has a plurality of elastically deformable protruding locking bars 12 which are uniformly arranged along the extending direction of the locking bar and perpendicular to the extending direction. Thus, when the locking bar 11 is passed through one of the locking holes 17, the protruding locking bar 12 is elastically deformed by being pressed through the locking hole 17, so that it is restored to its original shape after passing through the locking hole 17, thereby connecting the locking bar 11 with the lock catch 16, so that the ring-shaped body forms a closed ring together with the locking assembly. In this way, the sensing element 14 performs physiological signal detection against the abdomen of the finger. Alternatively, the locking bar 11 may be connected to the lock catch 16 by pulling the locking bar 11 passing through the locking hole 17 toward one end of the opening, so that the protruding locking bar 12 closest to the locking hole 17 presses the locking hole 17 outwards to elastically deform, so that the locking hole 17 returns to its original shape after the protruding locking bar 12 passes through the locking hole 17.

As shown in fig. 1, when the lock catch 16 is pressed and bent toward the other end of the opening, the protruding strip 12 abutting against the lock hole 17 is pressed and elastically deformed to pass through the lock hole 17, so that the ring body is gradually loosened. In this way, the last protruding catch 12 of the locking bar 11 is released from the locking hole 17, so that the finger ring forming the closure is opened, and the finger ring is released from the finger. Alternatively, it is not necessary to have the last raised catch 12 disengaged from the locking aperture 17 when the finger ring, which is the one that has disengaged from the locking aperture 17, is released to slip off the finger.

As shown in fig. 1, the width of the locking hole 17 of the lock catch 16 is slightly smaller than the thickness of the protruding clamping strip 12 of the locking strip 11, so that the protruding clamping strip 12 is blocked by the locking hole 17 after being deformed by pressing the locking hole 17 to be capable of penetrating the locking hole 17.

As shown in fig. 1, the lock catch 16 adjusts the position of the closed finger ring on the finger of the user by engaging the protruding locking bar 12 at different positions of the locking bar 11.

As shown in fig. 1, the sensing element 14 includes at least one of: blood oxygen sensing element, blood pressure detector, blood glucose sensing element, temperature sensing element, and ECG sensing element. The at least one sensing element 14 may face the abdomen of the finger. For example, a temperature sensing element and a blood oxygen detecting device may be provided in the abdomen of the finger, or an ECG sensing element, or a blood sugar sensing element may be provided. These means may be provided in combination or different sensing elements 14 may be provided in each of the individual fingers of the suit, as desired by the user.

A battery compartment 15 for mounting a battery may be arranged outside the ring body at the top of the ring-type detecting device, in which the battery may be arranged for powering the sensing element 14. The sensing element 14 may also be powered by an external power cord. The battery is a disposable battery or a rechargeable battery.

Fig. 2 is a schematic view illustrating a use state of the ring type detecting apparatus according to the present disclosure. The ring detection device is locked to the user's finger in the manner described above. The finger ring body 10 and the locking assembly are made of light-tight soft glue. Because the inner sides are uniformly provided with the columnar bulges 13 at intervals, the inner sides of the ring-shaped body 10 can not be completely attached to fingers, the fingers which can be caused by completely attaching the fingers are extruded to cause the situation that blood flow is not smooth, and gaps between the columnar bulges 13 can play a role in ventilation. Since the ring type sensing device is worn in the middle of the finger, the tip of the finger is separated to be exposed to the outside so that the user can perform other works and operations that the finger itself must participate in, for example, performing a touch operation of the touch screen.

Further, the sensing element 14 may be a reflective blood oxygen detection device. The reflective blood oxygen sensing element includes a light emitting element (e.g., a light emitting diode LED) and a light receiving element (e.g., a silicon photocell PD). The light emitting element (e.g. light emitting diode LED) is arranged side by side with the light receiving element (e.g. silicon photocell PD), both being in close proximity to the abdomen of the user's finger when the ring-type detection device is worn. The light emitting element and the light receiving element can be respectively arranged at respective corresponding positions in a pasting mode, and can also be integrally formed on the opening annular finger ring type body 10, the shape of the finger ring type body 10 accords with the human engineering principle, when the soft silica gel finger ring type body 10 is sleeved on a finger of a user, the silica gel element is automatically attached to the finger under the action of the locking component, so that the influence of ambient light on the sensing precision of the sensing element can be prevented. The silicone element may be black, thereby further shielding ambient light. The light emitting element emits red light and infrared light with different wavelengths, and the two light rays are received by the light receiving element 1110 after being reflected by skin tissue of a human body and converted into an oxygen blood signal, and the oxygen blood signal is transmitted to a sensing signal processing device (not shown), and the oxygen blood signal is processed by the sensing signal processing device to obtain the oxygen blood saturation. The blood oxygen sensing element 14 is connected to the sensing signal processing device by an external flexible communication line, or by wireless connection.

In summary, the finger ring type detection device provided in this embodiment measures physiological parameters such as blood oxygen, blood sugar, blood pressure, electrocardio, temperature, pulse wave by arranging the sensing element at the position of the detection device rich in the blood vessels of the hand, thereby increasing the application universality of the detection device and enabling the sensing function to be more complete. Particularly, the detection device is used as a sensing instrument, so that the convenience, accuracy and comfort of sensing physiological parameters are improved. The finger ring type detection equipment provided by the disclosure has the characteristics of difficult falling, ventilation, good collection of blood oxygen value and pulse wave and the like. Therefore, the device is suitable for monitoring blood oxygen saturation, pulse wave, blood sugar, blood pressure, electrocardio and temperature for a long time.
