If so, the advance control unit 33 outputs a temperature control signal for starting the heat dissipation device 2 in advance; if not, the advance control unit 33 outputs a temperature control signal for reducing the power of the heat dissipation device 2 in advance.
[0170] Specifically, the temperature prediction unit 32 analyzes historical temperature data and environmental data through a machine learning algorithm, predicts future temperature change trends, and takes temperature control measures in advance.
[0171] By collecting a large amount of historical temperature data, environmental data and ultrasonic equipment usage data, the temperature change prediction model is trained. During the operation of the ultrasonic equipment, the temperature change prediction model makes predictions based on real-time data and adjusts the temperature control strategy in advance.
[0172] The temperature change prediction model uses the long short-term memory network (LSTM) model to predict temperature changes.

[0177] In a preferred embodiment, the temperature management module 3 further includes an adaptive adjustment unit for adaptively adjusting the power of the heat dissipation device 2 according to the battery data and the environmental data. The adjustment formula is:
[0178]
[0179] Where P adjusted Indicates the adjusted power, P max Indicates the maximum power, T current Indicates the current battery temperature in the battery data, T optimal represents the optimal temperature, T max Indicates the maximum allowable temperature.

[0186] When the temperature of the ultrasonic device approaches the safety threshold, the charging current is gradually reduced to prevent the temperature from continuing to rise.
[0187] When the temperature of the ultrasonic device exceeds the safety threshold, the charging current is immediately and significantly reduced or charging is suspended, and charging is resumed after the temperature drops.
[0188] According to the specific characteristics of the battery and the ultrasonic device, the present invention can set a reasonable temperature threshold to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the charging process under different environments. In combination with the multi-stage charging algorithm, different temperature control strategies are adopted in different charging stages to ensure fast charging while avoiding over-temperature.

[0191] Overcurrent protection: Overcurrent protection means real-time monitoring of the charging current during the charging process. When the current exceeds the safety threshold, the charging current is automatically reduced or charging is stopped.
[0192] Short circuit protection: Short circuit protection means that when a short circuit is detected during charging, the power supply will be automatically cut off to protect the safety of the battery and equipment.
[0193] In a preferred embodiment, the charging port of the ultrasound device adopts a waterproof and dustproof design to ensure safe use in various environments.
[0194] Specifically, the present invention adopts an interface type with a high waterproof and dustproof grade: a charging interface that meets IP67 or higher grades is selected, such as a USB-C interface, which has good waterproof and dustproof performance.
[0195] More specifically, a waterproof rubber ring is installed on the outer edge of the charging interface to ensure that the interface can be completely sealed after the charging cable is inserted to prevent water and dust from entering.
[0196] A protective cover with a sealing ring is provided on the outside of the charging port. When the charging port is not in use, the protective cover can be closed to further enhance the waterproof and dustproof effects.
[0197] The present invention can also coat the charging port and the surrounding circuit board with a nano-waterproof coating, so that a protective film is formed at the microscopic level to prevent moisture from invading the circuit. In this embodiment, a polyparaxylene (Parylene) coating is used.
[0198] Through the above technical solution, the present invention can significantly improve the charging speed of portable ultrasound equipment, so that it can be fully charged in a short time to meet the needs of emergency medical scenarios.

Charging starts when the battery power is 10%. After the initial fast charging stage, the fast charging current is dynamically adjusted to a maximum of 1.8A, and the battery power reaches 50% within 20 minutes; then enters the intermediate constant current charging stage, the constant current charging current is dynamically adjusted to a maximum of 1.2A, and the battery power reaches 80% within 15 minutes; finally enters the late constant voltage charging stage, the constant voltage charging voltage is dynamically adjusted to a maximum of 4.2V, and the battery is fully charged within 10 minutes. The entire charging process is completed within 45 minutes, which reduces the charging time by more than 60% compared with traditional charging technology. At the same time, the battery temperature is always kept below 40°C during the charging process, ensuring the safety of charging and the life of the battery.
[0203] Through the above embodiments, it can be seen that the present invention has significant advantages in charging speed, safety and battery life, and has broad application prospects.
[0204] Specific embodiment 2, assuming that a portable ultrasonic device adopts the temperature control method provided by the temperature management module 3 of the present invention during charging and use, and monitors the temperature of the battery, charging port and mainboard in real time through multi-sensor fusion technology when the battery is charging. When the temperature approaches the upper limit of safety, the temperature change prediction model predicts in advance that the temperature will continue to rise, so the fan 23 and the heat pipe 22 are started in advance to dissipate heat. At the same time, the adaptive adjustment unit dynamically adjusts the speed of the fan 23 and the working state of the heat pipe 22 according to the real-time temperature and environmental data to ensure that the temperature always remains within a safe range. During the whole process, the temperature of the ultrasonic device is always kept below 40°C, and the charging speed and safety are significantly improved.
