Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of medical testing instruments, specifically relating to an electrocardiograph. Background Technology

[0002] An electrocardiograph (ECG) automatically records the bioelectrical signals (electrocardiogram signals) generated by the excitation of the myocardium during cardiac activity. It is a commonly used medical electronic instrument for clinical diagnosis and research. Electrodes are placed at different points on the body and connected to the positive and negative terminals of the ECG galvanometer via lead wires. This circuit connection method for recording an electrocardiogram is called ECG leads. The widely adopted internationally accepted lead system is called the standard 12-lead system, which includes limb leads connected to the limbs and chest leads connected to the chest. Correspondingly, lead wires are generally divided into limb leads and chest leads. Limb leads typically have clips at the front end for holding the patient's limbs, while chest leads typically have suction tips or bulbs at the front end for attaching to the patient's chest or abdomen. For ease of use, lead wires are often moved with the machine, only temporarily mounted on the ECG machine's frame.

[0003] In the prior art, patent document CN215017628U discloses a portable 12-lead electrocardiograph, including: a main unit mounting platform, on which a 12-lead electrocardiograph main unit is mounted; a protective plate is provided on one side of the 12-lead electrocardiograph main unit, which is mounted on the side of the main unit via a rotating hinge; a measuring wire harness is provided on the 12-lead electrocardiograph main unit, and several electrode connecting wires are provided within the measuring wire harness; the lower end of the main unit mounting platform is mounted on a platform support, and the main unit mounting platform is mounted on the platform support via fixing bolts; the lower end of the platform support is welded and fixed to a movable support plate, and several movable support devices are provided at the lower end of the movable support plate; several equipment placement boxes are provided on the platform support. This electrocardiograph is easy to move, and the placement boxes can be used to place the lead wires; however, since all the lead wires are placed together in the placement boxes, limb lead wires and chest lead wires cannot be placed separately, resulting in a somewhat messy arrangement. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main objective of this application is to provide an electrocardiograph that allows for the separate storage of limb leads and chest leads to avoid clutter and facilitate retrieval. To this end, this application provides the following main technical solutions:

[0005] An electrocardiograph includes a movable base, a vertical rod fixed to the base, and an electrocardiograph body mounted on the top of the vertical rod. The electrocardiograph body is used to connect leads with electrodes. The improvement is that it also includes a lead storage assembly, which includes a vertical plate, a scroll, several fixed rods, and several sliding rods.

[0006] The back of the vertical plate is fixedly connected to the side wall of the vertical rod, and its front is divided into a chest lead wire storage area and a limb lead wire storage area on both sides of the vertical rod.

[0007] The scroll is vertically installed in the chest lead wire storage area. One end of the scroll is rotatably connected to the vertical rod, and the other end has a clamping opening along the axial direction. The width of the clamping opening is smaller than the size of the suction head on the chest lead wire, but not smaller than the diameter of the chest lead wire.

[0008] The fixing rod is vertically fixed to the upper part of the limb lead wire storage area, and several fixing rods are arranged in a row at intervals. A long vertical opening is opened between every two fixing rods on the vertical plate, and the long opening extends to the top edge of the vertical plate.

[0009] The sliding rod is vertically installed in the limb guide wire storage area, and one end of each of the sliding rods is slidably disposed in different elongated openings. The back of the vertical plate is provided with a connecting rod that is fixedly connected to the ends of all the sliding rods.

[0010] The electrocardiograph provided by this application achieves at least the following beneficial effects: The vertical plate of the frame is divided into a chest lead storage area and a limb lead storage area. The chest lead storage area has a winding spool with a clamping opening, allowing all chest lead wires to pass through the opening before being wound and stored. The limb lead storage area has several fixed rods and several sliding rods. In use, the sliding rod is first slid to the top, then the limb lead wire clamp is clamped onto the outermost fixed rod, and the limb lead wire is placed above the other fixed rods. Finally, the sliding rod is lowered to the bottom, distributing the limb lead wires in an approximately sinusoidal shape for storage. This achieves the purpose of separating the storage of limb and chest leads, reducing clutter and facilitating retrieval. Attached Figure Description
