Description

A two-way detachable type electrocardiogram electrode assembly

The present invention relates to a bi-detachable electrocardiographic electrode assembly, and more particularly, to a bi-detachable electrocardiographic electrode assembly capable of easily attaching an electrode for an electrocardiogram to a subject's body.

Electrocardiogram (ECG) is an active current due to the contraction and expansion of cardiac muscle. The action potential, which occurs when the cardiac muscle relaxes and contracts, causes a current to flow from the heart to the body. This current generates a potential difference according to the position of the body, which is detected through a surface electrode attached to the skin of the human body Can be recorded. These electrocardiograms are used to check for cardiac abnormalities and are very important because they are used as a basic method for diagnosing cardiac diseases such as angina pectoris, myocardial infarction and arrhythmia.

Generally, an apparatus for measuring electrocardiogram includes an electrode for measuring an action potential in contact with the skin, a power supply unit, and a controller for analyzing and processing the signal measured in the above.

Electrocardiogram (ECG) electrodes can be divided into wet and dry electrodes depending on whether or not they contain electrolytes on the surface. For devices containing dry electrodes, they are usually worn on the chest using elastic bands. However, there is a feeling of chest tightness when worn, and it is not suitable for wearing for a long time. In addition, the quality of the signal may be degraded if the dry electrode is loosely adhered due to a user mistake at the time of initial attachment or when the humidity of the dry electrode is reduced due to use for a long time. On the other hand, a wet electrode does not require a separate band but uses an adhesive component.

Since more than 10 electrodes are used, the measurer takes a lot of time to attach the electrodes individually to the subject's skin.

On the other hand, an electrocardiogram measuring device can be divided into a wireless and a wired device depending on the presence or absence of a wire. The wireless device includes an electrode that contacts the skin, a power supply, a controller, and a transceiver of the signal. The wired device is mainly used in hospitals. The electrode that contacts the skin is connected to the power supply and the controller through the wire.

In order to measure electrocardiogram in a dual-wire system, a plurality of wires are extended to the outside of the electrocardiogram measuring device, and electrocardiogram should be measured from the subject by attaching a surface electrode formed at the end of the wire at a position to be measured. However, since the number of wires of the electrocardiogram measuring apparatus is more than 10, there is a disadvantage that the electrocardiogram cable is entangled or twisted during the electrocardiogram measurement due to the use of the surface electrodes attached to the hand, foot, and chest of the subject .

The housing 30 is formed with a latching protrusion 31a protruding toward the non-sticking area 240 in the pull-out direction to restrict the pull-out of the patch 200. [

The housing 30 may be provided with a latching protrusion 31a. The latching jaw 31a is formed at the end of the housing 30 in the drawing direction. The latching jaw 31a prevents any detachment of the patch 200 or any disconnection of the patch 200. The latching jaws 31a may be formed on both ends of the patch 200, or may be formed on only one side.

The patches 200 are stacked so as to be capable of being taken out one after another and are provided with first patches 201a and 201b and second patches 202a and 202b disposed under the first patches 201a and 201b and connected to each other, And third patches 203a and 203b disposed on the lower layers of the second patches 202a and 202b and fourth patches 204a and 204b disposed on the lower layers of the third patches 203a and 203b and connected to each other And the connection area 230 is formed in each of the first patches 201a and 201b, the second patches 202a and 202b, the third patches 203a and 203b and the fourth patches 204a and 204b, The connection area 230 formed in the first patches 201a and 201b and the connection area 230 formed in the third patches 203a and 203b are formed in the same direction with the electrode sensor 10 as a center, The connection areas 230 formed on the first patches 202a and 202b and the connection areas 230 formed on the fourth patches 204a and 204b are formed in the same direction with respect to the electrode sensor 10, The connection areas 230 formed and the openings formed in the second patches 202a and 202b The connecting areas 230 formed in the third patches 203a and 203b and the connecting areas 230 formed in the fourth patches 204a and 204b are formed in opposite directions with respect to the electrode sensor 10 230 are formed in opposite directions with respect to the electrode sensor 10.

The coupling regions may be formed on the front faces 201a, 202a, 203a, and 204a. The examinee directs the pulling direction of the housing 30 toward the skin of the body and brings the housing 30 into close contact with the skin. Since the binding region is in close contact with the skin and binds to the skin, the binding force separates the patch 200.

The coating area 250 is disposed on the rear surface 201b, 202b, 203b, 204b in the drawing direction.

Therefore, the coating region 250 of the patch 200 disposed on the upper layer is brought into contact with the coupling region of the patch 200 disposed on the lower layer.

Since the coating region 250 and the bonding region are not bonded to each other, even if the upper layer patch 200 is separated from the body, the lower layer patch 200 remains. Then, due to the restoring force of the elastic member 91 disposed at the lower end, the patch 200 of the lower layer fills the position of the patch 200 of the upper layer.

The inspector can attach the patch 200 to a desired position only by bringing the housing 30 against the skin.

The positions of the connection regions 230 are formed alternately. When the patch 200 on the upper side is out of the connection area 230, the lower patch 200 is dragged together and used as the upper side of the latching jaw 31a. A part of the lower patch 200 is always raised above the latching jaw 31a.

Such an arrangement increases the initial contact area between the skin and the adhesive region 220 despite the engagement protrusion 31a. Therefore, the patch 200 on the upper side can be more easily separated from the patch 200 on the lower side than the size of the patch 200, the degree of adhesive force, and the size of the housing 30. 16 is a perspective view of a one-way detachable ECG electrode assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 17 shows the front and rear views of the patch of FIG. 16; FIG. 18 is an explanatory view of an embodiment of a one-way detachable electrocardiogram electrode assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The coupling regions may be formed on the rear surfaces 301b, 302b, 303b, and 304b. The inspector can remove the patches 300 one by one from the housing 30. [ Since the patch 300 is connected to the wire 50, the patch 300 is pulled out of the housing 30 together with the wire 50.

The coating region 350 is disposed on the front surfaces 301a, 302a, 303a, and 304a facing the drawing direction. Thus, when the inspector passes the patch 300, The contamination of the patch 300 is prevented because the coating region 350 is formed on the outside.

Also, the coating area 350 of the patch 300 disposed on the lower layer is in contact with the coupling area of the patch 300 disposed on the upper layer.

Since the coating region 350 and the bonding region are not bonded to each other, the patch 300 of the lower layer remains even if the patch 300 of the upper layer is separated from the body. Then, due to the restoring force of the elastic member 91 disposed at the lower end, the patch 300 of the lower layer fills the position of the patch 300 of the upper layer.

The inspector can attach the patch 300 to a desired position only by bringing the housing 30 into close contact with the skin.

Also, since the connection area 330 is formed only in one side, the patch 300 can be easily stacked and separated.

In addition, since the bonding region is formed on the rear surfaces 301b, 302b, 303b, and 304b, deterioration of adhesion due to foreign substances such as dust can be prevented and storage is easy. The integrated type electrocardiograph measuring apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an elastic member 91 accommodated in the housing 30 and applying a restoring force toward the pulling direction of the patches 100, 200, 300, and 400; And a separating plate 93 disposed between the elastic member 91 and the connector 60.

The elastic member 91 may be a coil spring. The coil spring pushes the patch 300 and the connector 60 toward the drawing direction.

As another example, the housing 30 may receive a threaded bolt-shaped rod. When the rod is rotated, it moves inside the housing 30 due to the thread. The inspector may rotate the rod to push the patch 300 toward the pulling out direction as desired. 19 is a perspective view of a bi-directional electrocardiogram electrode assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 20 shows the front and rear views of the patch of FIG. 19; FIG. 21 is an explanatory view of a bi-directional electrocardiogram electrode assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention.

19 to 21, a bi-directional electrocardiogram electrode assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an electrode sensor 10 for sensing an ECG; An electrode arrangement region 410 in which the electrode sensor 10 is disposed and a bonding region 420 to which an adhesive component having a bonding force with respect to the skin of the human body is applied and a connection region A patch 400 having a non-adhesive region 440 formed of a material capable of being bonded to the connection region 430 without applying an adhesive component to the adhesive region 430 and a coating region 450 coated with a non- ; And the rear face 401b, 402b, 403b, 404b, which are opposite to each other in the drawing direction, are provided with a plurality of patches 400, The connection region 430 is formed alternately on either side of the position of the electrode sensor 10 according to the stacking order of the patches 400. [

The housing 30 may be provided with a latching protrusion 31a. The latching jaw 31a is formed at the end of the housing 30 in the drawing direction. The latching jaw 31a prevents any disconnection of the pad or any disconnection of the pad. The latching jaws 31a may be formed on both ends of the pad, or may be formed on only one side of the pad.

The housing 30 has a latching protrusion 31a protruding toward the non-sticking area 440 in the pull-out direction to restrict the pull-out of the patch 400. [

A coupling region may be formed in the rear surface 401b, 402b, 403b, 404b. The inspector can remove the patches 400 one by one from the housing 30. [ Since the patch 400 is connected to the wire 50, the patch 400 is pulled out of the housing 30 together with the wire 50.

The coating region 450 is disposed on the front surfaces 401a, 402a, 403a, and 404a facing the drawing direction. Thus, when the inspector passes the patch 400, The contamination of the patch 400 is prevented because the coating area 450 is formed on the outside.

The coating region 450 of the patch 400 disposed on the lower layer is in contact with the coupling region of the patch 400 disposed on the upper layer.

Since the coating region 450 and the bonding region are not bonded to each other, even if the upper layer patch 400 is separated from the body, the lower layer patch 400 remains. Then, due to the restoring force of the elastic member 91 disposed at the lower end, the patch 400 of the lower layer fills the position of the patch 400 of the upper layer.

The inspector can attach the patch 400 to a desired position only by bringing the housing 30 against the skin.

The positions of the connection areas 430 are formed alternately. When the upper patch 400 escapes from the connection area 430, the lower patch 400 is dragged together and used as the upper side of the latching jaw 31a. A part of the lower patch 400 is always raised above the latching jaw 31a.

This arrangement increases the initial contact area between the skin and the adhesive region 420 despite the latching jaw 31a. Therefore, the patch 400 on the upper side can be more easily separated from the patch 400 on the lower side than the size of the patch 400, the degree of the adhesive force, and the size of the housing 30. Further, since the bonding region is formed on the rear surfaces 401b, 402b, 403b, and 404b, deterioration of adhesion due to foreign substances such as dust can be prevented and storage is easy.

A plurality of patches 400 are stacked so as to be drawn out one after another and are provided with first patches 401a and 401b and second patches 402a and 402b disposed under the first patches 401a and 401b and connected to each other, And third patches 403a and 403b disposed on the lower layers of the second patches 402a and 402b and fourth patches 404a and 404b disposed on the lower layers of the third patches 403a and 403b and connected to each other And the connection area 430 is formed in each of the first patches 401a and 401b, the second patches 402a and 402b, the third patches 403a and 403b and the fourth patches 404a and 404b, The connection area 430 formed in the first patches 401a and 401b and the connection area 430 formed in the third patches 403a and 403b are formed in the same direction with the electrode sensor 10 as the center, The connection areas 430 formed in the first patches 402a and 402b and the connection areas 430 formed in the fourth patches 404a and 404b are formed in the same direction with respect to the electrode sensor 10, The connection areas 430 formed and the openings formed in the second patches 402a and 402b The connection areas 430 formed in the third patches 403a and 403b and the connection areas 430 formed in the fourth patches 404a and 404b are formed in opposite directions with respect to the electrode sensor 10 430 are formed in opposite directions with respect to the electrode sensor 10.

The patches 100, 200, 300, and 400 include electrode arrangement regions 110, 210, 31a0, and 410, respectively. The electrode arrangement regions 110, 210, 31a0, and 410 are spaces in which the electrode sensor 10 is disposed. The electrode arrangement regions 110, 210, 31a0, and 410 are formed at the centers of the patches 100, 200, 300, The adhesive regions 120, 220, 320, and 420 are portions that are in close contact with the human body. Adhesive regions 120, 220, 320, 420 bring the patches 100, 200, 300, 400 into close contact with the skin.

The connection areas 230, 330, and 430 are portions that adhere the patches 100, 200, 300, and 400 to the other patches 100, 200, 300, and 400. The adhesive applied to the connection areas 230, 330, 430 may be different from the adhesive applied to the adhesive areas 120, 220, 320, 420. The adhesive applied to the connection areas 230, 330, and 430 may be less adhesive than the adhesive applied to the adhesive areas 120, 220, 320, and 420. The adhesive applied to the connection areas 230, 330, and 430 is sufficient to prevent the patches 100, 200, 300, and 400 from being arbitrarily separated.

The non-adherent regions 240, 340, and 440 may be portions that are not artificially coated on the surfaces of the patches 100, 200, 300, The non-adhesive areas 240, 340, 440 are bonded to the connection areas 230, 330,

The coating areas 150, 250, 350 and 450 may be configured to allow the patches 100, 200, 300 and 400 to be connected to the patches 100, 200, 300 and 400 due to the adhesion areas 120, 220, prevent. Since the adhesive regions 120, 220, 320, and 420 are coated with an adhesive having a relatively strong adhesive force, separation of the patches 100, 200, 300, and 400 is difficult. Thus, the coating regions 150, 250, 350, and 450 are coated with an adhesive that is applied to the adhesive regions 120, 220, 320, and 420,

The housing 30 may be provided with a latching protrusion 31a. The latching jaw 31a is formed at the end of the housing 30 in the drawing direction. The latching jaw 31a prevents any dismounting of the patches 100, 200, 300, 400 or any disconnection of the patches 100, 200, 300, The latching jaw 31a may be formed at both ends of the patches 100, 200, 300, and 400, or may be formed at only one side.

22 is an exploded perspective view of a housing according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 22, the housing 30 includes an upper housing 31 having a latching protrusion 31a formed therein; And a lower housing 33 detachably coupled to the upper housing 31 and receiving the patches 100, 200, 300, 400.

The patches 100, 200, 300, and 400 are previously accommodated in the lower housing 33 before the electrocardiogram. The patches 100, 200, 300, and 400 are arbitrarily restricted by the catching jaws 31a. When the patches 100, 200, 300 and 400 are all received in the lower housing 33, the lower housing 33 is covered with the upper housing 31 having the latching jaws 31a.
