DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION: TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a device for measuring the activity of a knot. It is especially suitable for the test of the activity of the rehabilitation of patients. [Prior Art] Ten tools for clinical evaluation of joint mobility in limbs (4) _ 〇meter, the evaluator must follow standard test procedures (such as disease 2 and joint specific position, _ quantitative axis (four) and two The arm of the end must be aligned with the prescribed amount, and the singer must give a weight (〇verpressure) to evaluate the tissue sensation of the tissue. However, in the clinical implementation of scale assessment, often patients with weakness, poor control of movement, muscle tension, silk weight or body size is much larger than the evaluator, etc. often can not - people independently perform this assessment, if barely executed, may cause excessive error At the same time, the judgment of the nervous and strenuous hand on the terminal is prone to f mistakes, and the guidance of the data is recognized, and the clinical decision of the successive _. Therefore, if there is a digital protractor that automatically displays the data (appears like a watch), it is fixed to the distal end of the test joint limb, and the performer only needs to help the patient's Lai's more than the patient. This ^ can more easily give the weight evaluation terminal feeling at the end of the action, starting and ending the angle of 201002300 can directly read the value on the S-position protractor. In this way, the evaluator does not have to be busy supporting the patient's limbs _ _ still hiding the correct position of the fixed 4 New Zealand, and there will be no trouble to find the hand to give heavy pressure. Therefore, the digital angle display can make the clinical evaluation of limb joint mobility more accurate and correct. The correctness of the obtained data is guaranteed to facilitate the use of medical decisions.
