[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] Example 1
[0022] See also Figure 1-4 The utility model provides the following technical solutions: a hand muscle strength measuring device, comprising a bracket 1, a handle 2 and a display screen 3, the display screen 3 is installed at the top of the bracket 1, the handle 2 is installed in the internal cavity of the bracket 1, a control button 4 is installed at the top of the bracket 1 near the display screen 3, a storage bag 6 is connected to the end of the top of the bracket 1 away from the display screen 3, an electrode sheet 5 is connected to the end of the top of the bracket 1 away from the display screen 3, a limit plate 11 is provided in the inner cavity of the handle 2, and a threaded adjustment rod 14 is connected to the top of the handle 2.
[0023] In the preferred embodiment, the bottom end of the limiting plate 11 is connected to a protective pad 12 , the top end of the limiting plate 11 is provided with a protrusion 15 , and a rotation groove 13 is provided inside the protrusion 15 .
[0024] In the preferred embodiment, one end of the threaded adjustment rod 14 is adapted to be connected to the inside of the rotation groove 13 , and the cross section of the rotation groove 13 is T-shaped.

[0026] In the preferred embodiment, the threaded adjustment rod 14 is rotatably connected to the protrusion 15 through the rotation groove 13 .
[0027] In this embodiment, the electrodes 5 are applied directly to specific acupuncture points on the palm and arm, stimulating the patient's acupuncture points with the electrodes 5. During the stimulation, the patient is asked to flex their palm to measure their hand muscle strength. Furthermore, a limit plate 11 is provided to effectively secure the hand's position when the palm grasps the handle 2, preventing the patient from losing consciousness and struggling to maintain their grip.
[0028] Specifically, after removing the electrode sheet 5 from the storage bag 6, it is connected to the port on the bracket 1 to power it on. Subsequently, the electrode sheet 5 is applied to specific acupuncture points on the patient's hand or palm, and the stimulation generated by the electrode sheet 5 acts on these acupuncture points. During the stimulation process, the patient is asked to flex their palm to measure their hand muscle strength.
