The operation panel 100 of the ultrasonic apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention is described in detail below.

Fig. 2 is a partially sectional schematic view of an operation panel 100 of an ultrasonic apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 3 is an enlarged schematic view at a in fig. 2. Referring to fig. 2 and 3, the operation panel 100 of the ultrasound apparatus of the present embodiment includes a housing 101 and an elastic sleeve 102, the housing 101 defines an accommodating cavity 103, a bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 103 is provided with a first via hole 104, the first via hole 104 communicates with the accommodating cavity 103, the elastic sleeve 102 includes a holding portion 105, a connecting portion 106 and a clamping portion 107 connected in sequence, the holding portion 105 is accommodated in the accommodating cavity 103, the connecting portion 106 penetrates through the first via hole 104, the bottom wall is clamped between the holding portion 105 and the clamping portion 107, the holding portion 105 is adapted to hold the ultrasound probe 10, wherein the clamping portion 107 can be disengaged from the first via hole 104 through elastic deformation.

Therefore, as the elastic sleeve 102 is separated from the first through hole 104 through elastic deformation, the elastic sleeve 102 is easy to detach, so that an operator can conveniently clean the shell 101 and the elastic sleeve 102, and the user experience is better.

It can be understood that, since the housing 101 of the operation panel 100 of the ultrasonic apparatus defines the accommodating cavity 103, and the elastic sleeve 102 for holding the ultrasonic probe 10 is clamped in the accommodating cavity 103, the operation panel 100 of the ultrasonic apparatus of the present embodiment can be used for placing the ultrasonic probe 10, so that an operator can use the apparatus very conveniently, for example, the ultrasonic probe 10 can be taken off for use while inputting instructions by using the operation panel 100 of the ultrasonic apparatus, or the ultrasonic probe 10 is placed into the elastic sleeve 102, which can reduce the working strength of the operator to some extent.

Fig. 4 is a front view of the operation panel 100 of the ultrasound apparatus in fig. 2, fig. 5 is a perspective view of the operation panel 100 of the ultrasound apparatus in fig. 2, and referring to fig. 2, fig. 4 and fig. 5, the operation panel 100 of the ultrasound apparatus includes a housing 101, the housing 101 has a mounting cavity for receiving electrical components such as a circuit board, and various operation components such as buttons and knobs are provided on an upper surface of the housing 101 for a doctor to perform various operations such as parameter setting.

As shown in fig. 3, fig. 4 and fig. 5, in this embodiment, the top of the housing 101 has an open top opening 108, the top opening 108 is communicated with the accommodating cavity 103, so as to facilitate the insertion and removal of the elastic sheath 102, the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 103 is provided with a first via hole 104, the first via hole 104 is communicated with the accommodating cavity 103, thereby the housing 101 is penetrated by the accommodating cavity 103 and the first via hole 104 along the thickness direction thereof, so that the clamping portion 107 can extend out of the bottom of the housing 101 through the first via hole 104, thereby facilitating the operator to squeeze the clamping portion 107, so that the clamping portion 107 can be removed from the first via hole 104 through deformation, thereby achieving the detachment of the elastic sheath 102.

As shown in fig. 3, 4 and 5, in some embodiments, in order to make the appearance of the operation panel 100 of the ultrasonic apparatus more beautiful, the receiving cavity 103 is integrally formed by sinking the housing 101. Specifically, the housing 101 includes a front shell 109 and a bottom shell 110, both the front shell 109 and the bottom shell 110 may be formed through an injection molding process, and they may be connected to form the housing 101 through a snap or a fastener, so that the front shell 109 forms the accommodating cavity 103 in a sunken manner, the accommodating cavity 103 is defined by a wall of the front shell 109, and the bottom shell 110 also sinks in a profiling manner to form a surrounding cavity 111 surrounding the accommodating cavity 103, so that a bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 103 includes two portions, which are a portion located on the front shell 109 and a portion located on the bottom shell 110, and similarly, the first via hole 104 also includes two portions, which are a portion located on the front shell 109 and a portion located on the bottom shell 110. Thus, the top opening 108 communicating with the accommodating cavity 103 is smoothly transited on the panel 109 without any visible gap, thereby being more beautiful.

Further, in some embodiments, the top surface of the elastic sleeve 102 is lower than the top opening 108 of the receiving cavity 103. Therefore, when the holding portion 105 of the elastic sleeve 102 is accommodated in the accommodating cavity 103, the top surface of the elastic sleeve 102, that is, the top surface of the holding portion 105, does not exceed the top opening 108, and the top opening 108 communicating with the accommodating cavity 103 is in smooth transition at the top of the face shell 109, so that no visible gap exists, and the appearance is more attractive.

As shown in fig. 3, 4 and 5, in some embodiments, the cross-section of the accommodating chamber 103 is circular, and the radius of the cross-section of the accommodating chamber 103 is gradually reduced from top to bottom along the thickness direction of the housing 101, so that the accommodating chamber 103 has an inverted truncated cone shape, and thus, the side wall of the accommodating chamber 103 is inclined. Meanwhile, the outer wall of the holding portion 105 of the elastic sleeve 102 is configured to be an inverted cone frustum shape matched with the accommodating cavity 103 (also refer to fig. 6 and 9), so that when the elastic sleeve 102 is put in through the top opening 108, the side wall of the accommodating cavity 103 can guide the elastic sleeve 102, so as to facilitate the putting in of the elastic sleeve 102. Further, the elastic sheath 102 may also have a circular opening 122 formed at the tip, and the opening 122 communicates with a holding chamber 115 described below, so that when an ultrasonic probe 10 of an appropriate size is held in the holding chamber 115, the placement direction of the ultrasonic probe 10 can be arbitrarily set, and the holding chamber 115 does not interfere with the housing 11 of the ultrasonic probe 10, thereby saving the operator's effort. Of course, the shape of the accommodating cavity 103 may be other suitable shapes, and is not limited herein.

Further, as shown in fig. 3, 4 and 5, the accommodating cavity 103 is in an inverted truncated cone shape, and thus the accommodating cavity 103 is surrounded by an inclined side wall and a straight bottom wall, and meanwhile, the outer contour of the holding portion 105 is set to be in an inverted truncated cone shape matched with the accommodating cavity 103, so that when the holding portion 105 is accommodated in the accommodating cavity 103, the outer wall of the holding portion can be abutted against the side wall and the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 103, and the holding portion 105 can be stably accommodated in the accommodating cavity 103, so that the ultrasonic probe 10 is not prone to shaking, shifting and the like, and is better protected.

With continued reference to fig. 3, in order to avoid the rotation of the holding portion 105 within the accommodating cavity 103, in some embodiments, one of the bottom wall and the outer wall of the holding portion 105 is provided with a positioning protrusion 112, and the other is provided with a positioning hole 113, and the positioning protrusion 112 is inserted into the positioning hole 113. Thus, when the holding portion 105 is correctly placed in the receiving cavity 103, it is positioned by the matching connection of the positioning protrusion 112 and the positioning hole 113. Specifically, the positioning projection 112 is provided on the wall of the face housing 109, and the positioning hole 113 is provided on the outer wall of the holding portion 105 (see fig. 9). Of course, the positioning protrusion 112 may be disposed on the outer wall of the holding portion 105, and the positioning hole 113 may be disposed on the wall of the face shell 109, which is not limited herein.

With continued reference to fig. 4 and 5, in some embodiments, there are a plurality of receiving cavities 103, and a plurality of elastic sleeves 102, where the plurality of elastic sleeves 102 correspond to the plurality of receiving cavities 103 one by one. Therefore, the ultrasonic equipment can be provided with a plurality of ultrasonic probes 10 with different models and functions, the applicability of the ultrasonic equipment can be effectively improved, and the diagnosis and the use of doctors are facilitated. Specifically, six accommodating cavities 103 are symmetrically distributed on two sides of the housing 101 in the length direction, and correspondingly, one elastic sleeve 102 is respectively disposed in each accommodating cavity 103. In addition, the respective sizes of the accommodation cavities 103 (elastic sleeves 102) may be different to adapt to different ultrasound probes 10. Of course, the number of the accommodating cavities 103 is not limited to six, and may be other numbers, which are not limited herein.

It will be appreciated that, for placing the ultrasound probe 10 with the cable 12 as shown in fig. 1, these receiving cavities 103 may be provided as close to the edge of the housing 101 as possible, so that the cable 12 can enter the elastic sleeve 102 through the opening structure provided at the side of the housing 101 and the elastic sleeve 102. Of course, it can be understood that if the ultrasound probe 10 is connected to the host computer in a wireless manner, the ultrasound probe 10 does not include the cable 12, in this case, the housing 101 and the elastic sleeve 102 may not have an opening structure, and in this case, the accommodating cavity 103 may be disposed at any position on the housing 101.

With continued reference to fig. 4 and 5, in some embodiments, the housing 101 has a first through opening 114 formed in a side portion thereof, the first through opening 114 communicates with the accommodating cavity 103 and the first through hole 104, the elastic sleeve 102 defines a through retaining cavity 115, a second through opening 116 is further formed in a side wall of the elastic sleeve 102, the second through opening 116 communicates with the retaining cavity 115, and the first through opening 114 is aligned with and communicates with the second through opening 116. Thus, for the ultrasound probe 10 with the cable 12 as shown in fig. 1, the cable 12 at the tail thereof can enter the holding cavity 115 of the elastic sleeve 102 through the first side opening 114 and the second side opening 116, so as to realize the placement of the ultrasound probe 10. It is contemplated that the aforementioned location-fit connection between the locating protrusion 112 and the locating hole 113 may ensure that the first side opening 114 is aligned and in communication with the second side opening 116, thereby facilitating passage of the cable 12 therethrough into the retention cavity 115.

Fig. 6 is a schematic view of an angle structure of the elastic sleeve 102 of the operation panel 100 of the ultrasound apparatus in fig. 2, and as shown in fig. 6, in some embodiments, the elastic sleeve 102 includes a holding portion 105, a connecting portion 106 and a clamping portion 107 connected in sequence. The clamping portion 107 can pass through the first through hole 104 by deformation to realize the installation or the removal of the elastic sleeve 102. Specifically, the connecting portion 106 has a cylindrical shape, and the outer contour thereof matches the first through hole 104, for example, the first through hole 104 is a circular hole. The snap-in portion 107 comprises a radially extending flange 117, an upper surface of the flange 117 abuts against an edge of a lower surface of the bottom wall of the receiving cavity 103, such that the bottom wall is snapped between the holding portion 105 and the flange 117 to fix the elastic sleeve 102. It can be understood that the flange 117 is folded and deformed by pressing the snap-in portion 107, so that the snap-in portion 107 passes through the first through hole 104.

Further, with continued reference to fig. 6, in some embodiments, the elastic sleeve 102 further includes an extension 118, and the extension 118 is integrally extended along the bottom of the snap-in portion 107. Specifically, the extension 118 extends along the bottom of the flange 117 by a predetermined distance, and has a cylindrical shape substantially similar to the connection portion 106 as a whole, and the holding chamber 115 extends to the extension 118, and a second through hole 119 communicating with the holding chamber 115 is provided at an end of the extension 118. It can be understood that if the clamping portion 107 is too short, the operator cannot conveniently press the clamping portion 107, and the extension 118 has a certain length, so that the operator can conveniently press the clamping portion 107 indirectly through the extension 118.

Further, in some embodiments, the outer wall of the extension 118 is in arc transition with the snap-fit portion 107. Specifically, the outer wall of the extension section 118 and the flange 117 are in arc transition connection, so that an operator does not have hand hurting feeling during operation, and the risk of hand injury of the operator is reduced.

Fig. 7 is a schematic top view of the elastic sleeve 102 shown in fig. 6, referring to fig. 7, the elastic sleeve 102 defines a through holding cavity 115, the side wall of the elastic sleeve 102 further defines a through second side opening 116, the second side opening 116 is communicated with the holding cavity 115, and the second side opening 116 is suitable for the cable 12 of the ultrasound probe 10 shown in fig. 1 to pass through to enter the holding cavity 115. Of course, for a wireless ultrasound probe 10 that does not include a cable 12, the side wall of the elastic sheath 102 may not be provided with the second side opening 116. Further, it is understood that the second side opening 116 easily causes the snap-in portion 107 to be press-deformed to pass through the first via hole 104.

Fig. 8 is a cross-sectional schematic view of the elastic sleeve 102 of fig. 6, and referring to fig. 8, in some embodiments, the retaining portion 105 has a tapered retaining surface 120, and the retaining surface 120 is adapted to abut the surface of the web tail 13 of the probe. Specifically, the holding surface 120 surrounds a part of the inner wall surface constituting the holding cavity 115, and the outer surface of the mesh tail 13 of the ultrasonic probe 10 shown in fig. 1 is a conical surface, so that the surface of the mesh tail 13 abuts on the holding surface 120, and the ultrasonic probe 10 can be held in the holding cavity 115. In this case, the ultrasonic probe 10 can be taken out upward in the axial direction of the holding chamber 115.

Further, in some embodiments, the retaining portion 105 further has a tapered avoiding surface 121 at the top of the retaining surface 120, the avoiding surface 121 intersects the retaining surface 120, and the conical angle of the avoiding surface 121 is greater than that of the retaining surface 120. It will be appreciated that the relief surface 121 is open at the top, forming a circular opening 122, and that the relief surface 121 also surrounds a portion of the inner wall surface forming the retention cavity 115. It can be understood that, because the housing 11 of the ultrasonic probe 10 has a convex structure along the radial direction, the avoiding surface 121 can avoid the housing 11 of the ultrasonic probe 10, so that, when the ultrasonic probe 10 is held in the holding cavity 115, the housing 11 of the ultrasonic probe 10 does not contact with the inner wall of the holding cavity 115, and at this time, the ultrasonic probe 10 can be observed to stand in the holding cavity 115, thereby better protecting the ultrasonic probe 10 and avoiding mutual contamination between the ultrasonic probe 10 and the elastic sleeve.

Fig. 9 is a schematic structural view of the bottom of the elastic sleeve 102 in fig. 6, and referring to fig. 9, in some embodiments, the outer wall of the holding portion 105 is provided with a positioning hole 113, so that when being placed in the receiving cavity 103, the holding portion 105 can be matched and connected with the positioning protrusion 112 in the receiving cavity 103 to position the holding portion 105.

It can be understood that the ultrasonic probe 10 is a relatively expensive component of the ultrasonic apparatus, the elastic sleeve 102 has elasticity, and the elastic sleeve 102 can play a role of buffering during the process of placing and removing the ultrasonic probe 10, so as to protect the ultrasonic probe 10.

In some embodiments, the elastic sheath 102 may be made of various materials with good elasticity, such as TPU or TPE, which may be integrally formed through an injection molding process, thereby facilitating the manufacturing.
