[0029] Reference Figures 1 to 5 The figure shows a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

[0030] In an embodiment of the present invention, a side-pull handheld veterinary color Doppler ultrasound machine includes:

[0031] A host 11, the front of the host 11 has a display screen 113, and one side of the host 11 has a plug interface;

[0032] The probe 13 is electrically connected to the plug interface of the host 11 through a connecting line;

[0033] The handle 12 is disposed on the other side of the main unit 11 . The handle 12 includes a lifting section 121 and two connecting rods 122 . Both ends of the lifting section 121 are respectively connected to the two connecting rods 122 . Each connecting rod 122 is retractably connected to the other side of the main unit 11 .

[0034] The host 11 is provided with a main control board, which is composed of a transmitting circuit, a receiving circuit, a detector and other units. When working, the transmitting circuit converts the current into a pulse current through high-frequency oscillation to the probe 13, and uses the piezoelectric effect of the chip in the probe 13 to convert the pulse current into ultrasonic waves and transmit them. At the same time, the chip in the probe 13 can also receive the ultrasonic waves transmitted back, and convert the ultrasonic waves into electrical signals, which are received by the receiving circuit, detected and amplified by the detector, and the sound and image appear on the display screen 113 through signal scanning processing. In this embodiment, the main control board and the power supply are both arranged in the host 11, and are integrated to reduce the volume. In addition, there is a plug interface on the side of the host 11 for the above-mentioned probe 13 to be plugged in, so that it can be electrically connected to the main control board, or can be charged through the power interface, or can output images through the HDMI interface, or can output data through the data interface.

[0035] In this embodiment, by pulling the lifting rod of the handle 12, a through hole is formed between the handle 12 and the main unit 11, through which the user's hand can pass and hold the side of the main unit 11, so that one hand can hold the main unit 11 for observation and the other hand can hold the probe 13 for diagnosis. Compared with the vertical veterinary color ultrasound machine, the side-pull handheld veterinary color ultrasound machine provided by the present invention can be used in a mobile state and is more convenient. At the same time, the handle 12 provided above can be used as a lifting handle for easy carrying and movement.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present invention, a grip block 114 is provided on the back of the host 11 , and the surface of the grip block 114 is in an arc shape. The grip block 114 is located on the back of the host 11 near the handle 12 .

[0037] When holding the side of the host 11 by hand, in order to make the grip tight, the above-mentioned grip block 114 is provided. When holding, the palm is located on the side of the host 11, and the palm wraps the grip block 114, and the operation can be performed by the thumb or the other hand.

[0038] In addition, a plurality of protrusions 1141 arranged at intervals are disposed on the surface of the grip block 114 .

[0039] In this way, the friction force on the surface of the grip block 114 is increased, making it more stable when held. Specifically, a plurality of groups of convex particles 1141 arranged at intervals in the horizontal direction are provided on the surface of the grip block 114, and each group of convex particles 1141 has a plurality of convex particles 1141 arranged at intervals in the vertical direction, so as to increase the friction force on the surface of the grip block 114. Furthermore, in one embodiment, a plurality of strip grooves extending in the horizontal direction are provided on the surface of the grip block 114, and the strip grooves are concave in the shape of an arc surface to fit the user's hand for easy holding. At the same time, a vertically arranged elastic band is also provided on the grip block 114, and the two ends of the elastic band are fixed to the upper and lower sides of the grip block 114. There is a band hole between the elastic band and the grip block 114 for the user's hand to pass through, and the user's hand is tied to the side of the host 11 by the band, so as to facilitate operation.

[0040] In addition, the other side of the main unit 11 is a first side surface with an arc-shaped arch, and the first side surface smoothly transitions with the surface of the grip block 114 .

[0041] Since the hand is also bent when holding, the curved first side surface allows the side of the host 11 to fit more closely with the user's hand, making it easier to hold and operate. At the same time, the first side surface and the surface of the grip block 114 have a smooth transition to further facilitate holding.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 In one embodiment of the present invention, the other side of the main unit 11 is a first side with an arc-shaped arch, and the lifting section 121 has a second side with an arc-shaped recessed surface facing the main unit 11, and the second side is in contact with the first side.

[0043] Thus, when the handle 12 is pulled out, the handle 12 is attached to the side of the main unit 11 to reduce the volume of the entire body, and at the same time, the second side surface of the lifting section 121 is in an arc-shaped concave shape for easy lifting. In addition, to facilitate pulling the handle 12 out of the side of the main unit 11, the second side surface has a pull hole, which extends to the side of the lifting section 121 to form a notch, so that the handle 12 can be pulled out through the pull hole.

[0044] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment of the present invention, the upper and lower sides of the main unit 11 respectively have connecting columns 111, and the connecting columns 111 open toward the other side of the main unit 11 to form a telescopic hole, and each connecting rod 122 is embedded in a telescopic hole.

[0045] In this way, the handle 12 is moved relative to the main body 11. In another embodiment, the connecting rod 122 includes an outer rod fixed to the main body 11, a movable inner rod is sleeved in the outer rod, and the end of the inner rod is connected to the lifting section 121. By moving the inner rod relative to the outer rod, the connecting column 111 can be extended and retracted, and the handle 12 can be pulled out.

[0046] Generally, a limiting protrusion is provided on the connecting column 111 to prevent the connecting column 111 from being separated from the telescopic hole, and the connecting column 111 is connected to the side wall of the telescopic hole through a resistance so that the connecting column 111 will not slide randomly.

[0047] In one embodiment, an elastic member is connected between the connecting rod 122 and the telescopic hole, and the handle 12 tends to be close to the host 11 .

[0048] In this way, after the handle 12 is pulled out, the lifting section 121 of the handle 12 tends to be close to the host 11. When the user holds the host 11 and performs diagnostic observation, the handle 12 will be close to the back of the user's hand. In this way, the handle 12 can be used as a fastener to prevent the host 11 from falling due to the user's inability to hold it firmly, and it is convenient to move and use. In addition, when the handle 12 is close to the back of the user's hand, in order to make it comfortable to wear, the lifting section 121 is covered with a flexible cloth body, so that when the lifting section 121 fits the back of the hand, the flexible cloth body will fit the back of the hand tightly and will not cause discomfort. Specifically, the flexible cloth body is filled with DuPont cotton to make the lifting section 121 more comfortable when it fits the back of the hand.

[0049] Specifically, in one embodiment, in order to realize the extension and retraction of the above-mentioned connecting rod 122, an annular protrusion 1221 is provided on the connecting rod 122, and the annular protrusion 1221 has a first annular abutting surface facing the other side of the main unit 11, and the telescopic hole has a second annular abutting surface facing the first annular abutting surface. The elastic member is a spring, and the elastic member is sleeved on the connecting rod 122, one end of the elastic member abuts against the first annular abutting surface, and the other end of the elastic member abuts against the second annular abutting surface.

[0050] It should be noted that the first annular supporting surface and the second annular supporting surface are arranged relative to each other, so that when the connecting rod 122 is telescopically moved, the second annular supporting surface can be used to limit the position to prevent the telescopic rod from being separated from the telescopic hole, and an elastic member is provided between the first annular supporting surface and the second annular supporting surface, so that the handle 12 tends to move closer to the host 11, and automatically returns to its original position when not in use, and when in use, the handle 12 can be close to the back of the hand to prevent it from falling.

[0051] Furthermore, in one embodiment, when the handle 12 is used as a carrying handle 12, in order to avoid the handle 12 being unable to be kept in the pulled-out state due to its automatic return structure, a clamping block 125 is provided on the annular protrusion 1221 of the connecting rod 122, and the side wall of the telescopic hole has a clamping hole. When the connecting rod 122 is pulled out and the handle 12 and the main unit 11 form a through hole, the clamping block 125 is embedded in the clamping hole, and a pressing piece is provided at the lifting section 121 of the handle 12, through which the expansion and contraction of the clamping block 125 can be controlled to achieve the return of the handle 12.

[0052] Specifically, in this embodiment, the pressing member is arranged on the outer side of the lifting section 121 away from the main body 11, and is embedded in the lifting section 121 and movably arranged. The pressing member is placed inside the handle 12 and has pressing rods 124 at both ends thereof. The end of the pressing rod 124 has a first wedge-shaped surface, and the block 125 has a second wedge-shaped surface facing the pressing rod 124. The second wedge surface of the block 125 abuts against the first wedge surface of the pressing rod 124. The connecting rod 122 has a movable cavity for the block 125 to move. The movable cavity is arranged in a direction perpendicular to the connecting rod 122, and a spring is provided in the movable cavity. The two ends of the spring are respectively connected to the block 125 and the side wall of the connecting rod 122, so that the block 125 can be telescopically moved in a direction perpendicular to the connecting rod 122, and by pressing the pressing piece, the pressing rod 124 can press the block 125, so that the block 125 does not protrude from the surface of the annular protrusion 1221. When returning to its original position, the block 125 is returned to its original position by the spring, and the return of the block 125 further supports the return of the pressing piece.

[0053] Based on the above, in order to facilitate the movement of the end of the pressing rod 124, a wedge-shaped block protrudes from the side of the clamping hole, and the wedge-shaped surface of the clamping block 125 is located on the wedge-shaped block.

[0054] On the basis of the above structure, the side wall of the telescopic hole has a plurality of clamping holes, so that the clamping block 125 can be embedded in different clamping holes, thereby realizing a plurality of different opening and closing positions of the handle 12 .

[0055] It should be noted that this embodiment only describes the structure of the connecting rod 122 and the telescopic hole on one side. In this embodiment, the structures of the connecting rod 122 and the telescopic hole on both sides are the same, so they are not described in detail.

[0056] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 In one embodiment of the present invention, the front of the host 11 also has a control button, and the control button is located on the front side of the host 11 close to the handle 12.

[0057] The control button is arranged on the main hole plate, and is used to control the host 11 and realize various operations. Thus, when holding the host 11 near the side of the handle 12, the control button can be operated by the holding fingers, so that the host 11 can be operated with one hand and the probe 13 can be held with the other hand to realize diagnosis and observation.

[0058] At the same time, the front of the host 11 also has a camera button, which is located on the front side of the host 11 close to the handle 12.

[0059] Specifically, the camera button is located on the upper side of the front side of the main unit 11 close to the handle 12. In this way, when holding the main unit 11 close to the side of the handle 12, the thumb will be facing the camera button 112. Since the camera button 112 is the most important button in actual use, the thumb is facing the camera button 112, which is convenient and quick to operate with one hand.

[0060] Please refer to Figure 6 In addition, in another embodiment, a support plate 115 is hingedly provided on the back of the main unit 11, and the support plate 115 is hinged to one side of the support plate 115. Generally, the support plate 115 is embedded in a groove on the back of the support plate 115. When the veterinary color ultrasound machine needs to be placed for use, the support plate 115 is rotated to a certain angle with the main unit 11, so that the main unit 11 can be stably tilted and placed to ensure stable support and avoid tipping.

[0061] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
