Be integrated according to clip retention of the present utility model, be namely made up of single entirety, or in other words, be unitary elements.Clip retention 12 is formed by the material of elastically deformable, and described material is out of shape by deformation force is applied to it.When discharging described power, clip retention 12 returns to its original shape (relaxed state).Clip retention 12 comprises two arm section 14a and 14b, its each substantially along the longitudinal axis 15a and 15b extend.Each arm section comprises actuation part 16, coupling part 18, hinge fraction 20 and contact portion 22.Clip retention 12 also comprises the bridge section 24 of connection two arm sections 14a, 14b.Bridge section 24 is connected to described two arm sections at coupling part 18 place of two arm sections 14a, 14b.If actuation force to be applied to the actuation part 16 of two arm sections 14a, 14b, then described arm section is pivoted relative to each other around the pivotal point (pivot axis) in the region of bridge section 24.In other embodiment of the present utility model, described pivotal point also can in other position.
If bridge section 24 is provided for the functions of pivoting making two arm section 14a, 14b pivotables when performing actuation force to actuation part 16.Described bridge section forms bridge joint hinge.For this reason, make use of the elastic deformability of described material.Preferably, bridge section 24 is with the form molding of circle segment, and its direction along contact portion 22 is open.This allow to distribute rightly be applied to two actuation parts actuation force to provide hinge function.In addition, the region that can receive body part increases.
When actuation force is applied to actuation part 16, clip retention 12 is in release conditions, and contact portion 22 separately.In other words, arm section 14a, 14b are pivoted relative to each other, because the elastic deformation due to actuation force of bridge joint hinge.Then body part can be received between arm section, or more specifically, is received between its contact portion 22.Usually, described actuation force is by using the people of monitoring device or by monitoring device being applied to patient doctor with it or nursing staff is applied to actuation part 16.If the body part of biology to be received between arm section 14a, 14b and release to the actuation force on actuation part 16, then perform clamping force via two contact portions 22 to described body part, this deformable material due to clip retention 12 is wanted to return to its original shape and is caused.Then described clip retention clamps or clips to described body part.
Usually, different people (adult, baby etc.) has the ear-lobe of different size.Therefore, when clip retention 12 is applied to ear-lobe, it can not guarantee the parallel alignment of the contact portion 22 of arm section usually.But this parallel alignment of contact portion 22 may be necessary, to guarantee good optical path and sensor reading accurately.Optical pickocff is interfered photo effect usually.When based on when carrying out transmissivity measurement through body part to the light of another arm section 14b from an arm section 14a (or contact portion 22), this is even more important.This utility model by providing hinge fraction 20 and overcoming this defect between the actuation part 16 and contact portion 22 of two arm sections 14a, 14b.Therefore, the luminescence unit be incorporated in the contact portion 22 of the first arm section 14a or supported by it aligns with the optical detecting unit supported in the contact portion 22 being incorporated into the second arm section 14b or by it.Hinge fraction 20 provides the motility that contact portion 22 and actuation part 16 are pivoted relative to each other.Therefore, it is possible to make two contact portions 22 adjust its orientation (relative to each other and relative to body part) based on the shape of the body part between it and/or thickness, namely each contact portion 22 deflects into separately and contacts with body part.On the one hand, the arm hinge in hinge fraction 20 allows the body part of the different size between compensation two arm sections 14a, 14b.On the other hand, comfortable wearing degree can be improved, because the power being applied to body part is equally distributed.
In general, clip retention 12 because of herein is provided three pivotal points 25, two in arm section (hinge fraction 20) and one in bridge section 24.These pivotal points 25 also can be called virtual pivot.Mechanical stress caused by open and close clip retention 12 can be dispersed on three pivotal points 25.
Fig. 3 a and 3b respectively illustrates the execution of actuation force 26 on the actuation part of two arm sections and power distribution, and the stress namely in material, which results in the elastic deformation of two arm sections and bridge section.
Can find out in fig. 3 a, the applying of actuation force 26 result in the distortion of bridge section (comparing the power distribution in the region of bridge section), arm section is separated, is namely pivoted relative to each other.Fig. 3 a shows release conditions.Described bridge section provides hinge function.Hinge fraction in described arm section is stressless.When discharging actuation force 26, arm section body part in-between performs clamping force 28.
Fig. 3 b shows clamped condition, and wherein body part (not shown) is received between described two arm sections.Can find out, described deformable material is also subject to stress in the hinge fraction of arm section.Compared with there is the design of two rigid arm sections, according to sensor holder of the present utility model because herein is provided the parallel alignment more or less of two arm sections.Which results in the alignment (from luminescence unit to optical detecting unit) of optical path.Therefore, the impact that can affect the surround lighting of measurement quality negatively can be reduced.In addition, and be applied to by all stress compared with a single pivoting member, described material owing to being subject to less stress by stress dispersion on three different pivotal points.As a result, can material aging be reduced, and the service life of parts can be increased.In addition, make it possible to provide higher users'comfort due to the clamping force more balanced in whole contact portion.
