- the ultrasound diagnosis apparatus Since the ultrasound diagnosis apparatus has non-invasive and non-destructive characteristics, it is widely used in the medical field to obtain information on internal tissues of an object.
- a probe transmits an ultrasound signal to an object and receives an ultrasound echo signal reflected from the object.
- the main body of the ultrasound diagnosis apparatus performs signal processing on the ultrasound echo signal received from the probe to generate ultrasound data related to information on the internal tissue of the object.
- the ultrasound diagnosis apparatus is used for medical purposes, such as observation of the inside of an object, detection of a foreign substance, measurement of an injury, and imaging of characteristics.
- an ultrasound diagnosis apparatus having a locking member capable of easily and quickly locking a monitor of the ultrasound diagnosis apparatus is provided.
- an ultrasound diagnosis apparatus having a monitor support assembly for supporting a monitor for displaying an ultrasound image includes: a base mounted on a main body of the monitor support assembly; a monitor arm rotatably provided on an upper side of the base; and a lock member for preventing rotation of the monitor arm when the monitor arm reaches a predetermined relative position with respect to the base.
- the lock member includes a lock pin, an urging member inserted into the lock pin, and a nut for compressing the urging member, and as the urging member is compressed when the nut is tightened, the elastic restoring force of the urging member is monitored It is possible to increase the force for stopping the rotation of the arm.
- the lock member can be fixed at a predetermined position without moving or rotating the monitor arm by adjusting the tightening degree of the nut.
- the elastic biasing member may be a compression spring.
- the lock member includes a lock pin, a spring washer fitted to the lock pin, and a nut for compressing the spring washer, and when the nut is tightened, the elastic restoring force of the spring washer prevents rotation of the monitor arm as the spring washer is compressed. can increase the power for
- the lock member can be fixed at a predetermined position without moving or rotating the monitor arm by adjusting the tightening degree of the nut.
- the ultrasound diagnosis apparatus may further include a plurality of grooves formed on the edge of the rear surface of the monitor.
- the monitor of the ultrasound diagnosis apparatus can be locked easily and quickly.
- the locking member performs up and down movement locking of the monitor arm, and left and right rotational locking, and locking to the monitor is possible without centering the monitor.
- the monitor As the monitor is locked by using the locking member, the monitor is fixed when the ultrasound diagnosis apparatus is transported, so that it is easy to transport. It is easy to push and pull the monitor when locking the monitor. In addition, the user can easily lock the monitor.
- FIG. 1 is a view showing the configuration of an ultrasound diagnosis apparatus having a lock member according to an embodiment of the present invention
- FIG. 2 is a view showing an example of locking the monitor while rotating the monitor left or right according to an embodiment of the present invention
- FIG. 3 is an exploded view of a lock member according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- Figure 4 is a view combining the lock member of Figure 3;
- FIG. 5 is a view showing an exploded view of the lock member according to another embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of an ultrasound diagnosis apparatus including a lock member according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- the ultrasound diagnosis apparatus includes a monitor support assembly 1 and a monitor 16 .
- the monitor 16 displays ultrasound images, and the monitor support assembly 1 supports the monitor 16 .
- the monitor support assembly 1 includes a base 10 , a monitor arm 12 , and a lock member 14 .
- the base 10 is fixed to a main body (not shown) of the ultrasound diagnosis apparatus, and the monitor arm 12 is rotatably provided on the upper side of the base 10 .
- the monitor arm 12 can rotate left and right and can move up and down.
- the lock member 14 prevents the monitor arm 12 from rotating when the monitor arm 12 reaches a predetermined relative position with respect to the base 10 . At this time, blocking the rotation is called locking.
- the lock member 14 performs up and down movement locking of the monitor arm 12, and left and right rotational locking. In this case, the locking member 14 can be locked to the monitor without aligning the monitor 16 to the center.
- the monitor 16 is locked using the lock member 14 , the monitor 16 is fixed when the ultrasound diagnosis apparatus is transported, so that it is easy to transport. It is easy to push and pull the monitor 16 when the monitor 16 is locked. Also, the user can easily lock the monitor 16 .
- the structure of the lock member 14 will be described later with reference to FIGS. 3 to 5 .
- a plurality of grooves 160 are formed on the edge of the rear surface of the monitor 16 so that the user can conveniently hold the grooves 160 and move.
- FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating an example of locking the monitor while rotating the monitor left or right according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating that the lock member automatically rotates the monitor arm when the monitor arm reaches a predetermined relative position (eg, 90 degrees left or 90 degrees right) when the monitor is rotated left or right according to an embodiment of the present invention; rotation is prevented and fixed.
- the monitor can be locked without centering the monitor.
- the same principle applies when moving the monitor up and down. After being locked, the user can release the lock by manually rotating left and right by applying a force greater than the static friction force.
- FIG. 3 is an exploded view of the lock member according to an embodiment of the present invention
- FIG. 4 is a view in which the lock member of FIG. 3 is combined.
- the lock member 14 includes a lock pin 141 , an elastic pressure member 142 , a nut 143 , a flat washer 144 , and a handle 145 .
- the urging member 142 is inserted into the lock pin 141, and the nut 143 compresses the urging member 142 when tightened and decompresses the urging member 142 when loosening. As the urging member 142 is compressed, the elastic restoring force of the urging member 142 increases the force for preventing the monitor arm from rotating.
- the elastic pressing member 142 may be a compression spring.
- the degree of compression deformation of the elastic pressing member 172 increases, and accordingly, the degree of pressurization of the monitor arm toward the base also increases (that is, the rotation of the monitor arm is reduced).
- the force to resist is increased
- the static friction force between the monitor arm and the flat washer 144 increases, so that the rotation of the monitor arm is hindered. Therefore, depending on the degree of tightening of the nut 143, the friction force between the flat washer 144 and the monitor arm 12 varies.
- the monitor arm 12 does not rotate. and may be fixed in a specific position.
- the setting of the static friction force for stopping the monitor is made according to the size of the elastic restoring force of the elastic pressing member 142 that is changed by the tightening or loosening of the nut 143, It will be understood that this may vary depending on the
- FIG. 5 is a view showing an exploded view of the lock member according to another embodiment of the present invention.
- a spring washer 146 is used instead of the elastic pressing member 142 , and the principle is similar.
- the spring washer 146 is inserted into the lock pin, the nut 143 compresses the spring washer 146 when tightened, and as the nut 143 is tightened, the spring washer 146 is compressed and the spring washer 146 is tightened.
- the elastic restoring force of the monitor stops the monitor by increasing the force to resist rotation of the monitor arm. By adjusting the tightening degree of the nut 143, the monitor arm cannot be moved or rotated and can be fixed at a predetermined position.
