Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a charging device; in particular to a charging device for a sensor, where the sensor is a reusable electronic device in a continuous physiological signal measurement device for collecting physiological signals of an organism and transmitting them outward, and the charging device charges this sensor. Background Art

[0002] With the progress of current technology and the change of living habits, some tests that had to be carried out in hospitals in the past are now moving towards home measurement. In particular, the change in living habits has led to an increase in the number of patients with chronic diseases, which has accelerated the development of this industry. Among them, blood glucose measurement is a test item, and measuring the concentration of blood glucose is an important step in effectively monitoring and treating diabetes. In the past two decades, the continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) system has developed rapidly. And since the CGM must be worn by users for a long time, miniaturization of the volume will be an inevitable trend. Generally speaking, the basic structure of the CGM mostly includes: a sensor, a transmitter, and a sensor inserter. The sensor is used to measure the physiological signal corresponding to the glucose concentration in the human body; the transmitter, usually assembled with a patch base installed with the sensor, is used to receive and transmit physiological signals; the sensor inserter, usually a mechanical device, is used to attach the patch base installed with the sensor to the skin surface of the organism and implant a part of the sensor under the skin of the user. Among them, the sensor is a relatively expensive electronic component, usually containing a processing component for processing the signals from the sensor and transmitting them out as wireless signals after processing. Therefore, ideally, if the sensor is a reusable component, it can achieve the purpose of saving, environmental protection and cost reduction. Therefore, in order to make the sensor reusable, it must be replenished with power. Since the use of ordinary batteries may cause waste battery pollution, most of the batteries in the sensor are rechargeable batteries. Therefore, a charger that is used in conjunction with the sensor is needed in this technical field. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to achieve the purpose of charging the transmitter, the present invention provides a charger to charge the reusable sensor. During use, the sensor is detached from the base and inserted into the charging device for charging.

[0004] Therefore, in order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a charging device for a physiological signal sensor, which is used to receive and externally transmit a physiological signal from under the skin of a living body. The physiological signal sensor has a first electrical port for connecting to the charging device for charging. The charging device includes: a sensor placement seat, including: a supporting surface for placing the physiological signal sensor; an opening for aligning with the first electrical port of the physiological signal sensor; a charging module, including: a second electrical port configured in the opening and driven to move between a first position and a second position; a third electrical port for connecting to a power source; and a circuit component electrically connected to the third electrical port to input the power source to the circuit component, the circuit component being used to provide and control a charging voltage, and the circuit component being further electrically connected to the second electrical port to output the charging voltage; a control module for controlling the operation between the charging module and the physiological signal sensor to maintain a safe state, including: an operating part mechanically coupled to the second electrical port, the operating part being controlled to drive the second electrical port to move between the first position and the second position and form separation or connection with the first electrical port; a locking part mechanically coupled to the operating part, controlling the operating part to drive the locking part to extend and retract on the supporting surface to determine the positioning of the physiological signal sensor, so as to prohibit or allow the picking and placing of the physiological signal sensor. Wherein, when the physiological signal sensor is placed on the supporting surface, the operating part is controlled to drive the second electrical port to move from the first position to the second position to make electrical connection with the first electrical port, and drive the locking part to extend out of the supporting surface to position and lock the physiological signal sensor to prevent it from being picked and placed, so as to avoid damage to the first electrical port and the second electrical port during electrical connection due to the picking and placing of the physiological signal sensor, thereby achieving the safe state; when the operating part drives the second electrical port to move from the second position to the first position to separate the first electrical port, and the operating part drives the locking part to retract into the supporting surface to release the positioning lock of the physiological signal sensor, allowing the first electrical port and the second electrical port to be separated, then the physiological signal sensor can be picked and placed, thereby achieving the safe state.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention further provides a charging device for a physiological signal sensor. The physiological signal sensor is used to receive and externally transmit a physiological signal from under the skin of a living body. The physiological signal sensor has a first electrical port. The charging device includes: a sensor placement seat, including: a supporting surface for placing the physiological signal sensor; an opening for aligning with the first electrical port; a charging module, including: a second electrical port configured in the opening and driven to move between a first position and a second position; a third electrical port for connecting to a power source; and a circuit component for charging and charging control of the physiological signal sensor, the circuit component being electrically connected to the second electrical port and the third electrical port; a control module for controlling whether there is a safe electrical connection between the physiological signal sensor and the charging module, including: an operating part coupled to the charging module for driving the second electrical port to move to be electrically connected to the first electrical port; a locking part that can be telescoped on the supporting surface for removably positioning the physiological signal sensor. Wherein, when the physiological signal sensor is placed on the supporting surface, the operating part drives the second electrical port to move from the first position to the second position to be electrically connected to the first electrical port, and the locking part is driven to extend out of the supporting surface to position the physiological signal sensor.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention further provides a charging device for a physiological signal sensor. The physiological signal sensor is used to receive and externally transmit a physiological signal from under the skin of a living body. The physiological signal sensor has a first electrical port. The charging device includes: a sensor placement seat, including: a supporting surface for placing the physiological signal sensor; an opening for aligning with the first electrical port; a charging module, including: a second electrical port configured in the opening and driven to move between a first position and a second position; a third electrical port for connecting to a power source; and a circuit component for charging and charging control of the physiological signal sensor, the circuit component being electrically connected to the second electrical port and the third electrical port; a locking module that can be telescoped on the supporting surface for removably positioning the physiological signal sensor, wherein the charging module is driven to make the second electrical port move from the first position to the second position to be electrically connected to the first electrical port, and the locking module is driven to extend out of the supporting surface to fix the sensor.

[0007] The effect of the present invention is that it can supply power to the sensor and has an anti-fooling function, which can avoid the damage of the charger or the sensor caused by the user setting the sensor in the wrong direction. Since there is an included angle between the electrical connection direction between the sensor and the charger in this case and the setting direction of the sensor on the charger, there is also a delicate mechanism in this case that allows the charging connector to move to be electrically connected to the charger for charging. In addition, there is a safety mechanism that can prevent improper impacts caused by the movement of the charging connector when the sensor is not properly placed. Furthermore, in order to prevent the sensor from shaking arbitrarily or falling out on the charger, there is also a positioning mechanism on the charger that can block the sensor so that it will not easily detach from the charger.

[0047] Please refer to Figures 1A through 1G, each figure is presented from different angles to fully show the relative positions and connection relationships between various components and structures. Among them, a charging device 1 is disclosed, which has a body 10, usually an object in the shape of a housing, for arranging and protecting the required components and structures therein. The charging device 1 also has a placement part 13, which has a bearing surface 13' for placing a physiological signal sensor 7 (hereinafter simply referred to as the sensor 7). The placement part 13 is similar to a slot or pocket-like structure, formed by a cover plate 10a1 cooperating with the bearing surface 13' to laterally insert the sensor 7. In other embodiments, the placement part 13 is not limited to other configurations. In Figure 1B , when the sensor 7 is correctly placed in the placement part 13, the baffle 61 extends out of the baffle outlet 16 to position the sensor 7 in the placement part 13 to prevent it from detaching from the placement part 13. At the same time, the electrical connection plug 44 (or the third electrical port) also extends out of the body 10. In Figure 1A 、 Figure 1D , it is disclosed that there is an opening (or lifting channel) 15 in the placement part 13 for the charging base 30 of the second electrical port 3' to lift therein, that is, a placement part 13 is formed outside or at the top of the second electrical port 3' or the charging base 30. And in order to prevent the charging base 30 from moving abnormally, a guiding part 150 is further provided in the opening 15 (please cooperate with Figure 5C ), to prevent the charging base 30 from shaking or rotating left and right, front and back during the lifting process, and a chute 150' is formed between the guiding parts 150. In addition, a first conductive joint 31 is fixed on the charging base 30, usually in the form of a gold finger, for electrically connecting with Figure 3D the first electrical port 73 of the sensor 7. In addition, Figure 1C and Figure 1D disclose that upper limiting ribs 101 are provided on the inner surface of the cover plate 10a1 in the placement part 13, and side limiting ribs 102 are provided on the inner surfaces of the two side walls of the cover plate 10a1 to reduce the contact area between the charging device 1 and the sensor 7, so as to reduce the friction force when the sensor 7 is placed or taken out in the charging device 1. In addition, the limiting ribs also help to position the sensor 7 on the charging base to prevent the sensor 7 from shaking or being difficult to take out. In addition, during the production of the housing 10a, the limiting ribs also help the upper housing 10a to be demolded from the mold. The cover plate 10a1 is used to shield the opening 15, which is beneficial for electrostatic protection and can also prevent inappropriate foreign objects from touching the first conductive joint 31 and / or the charging base 30. In another embodiment, the charging device 10 can also omit the cover plate 10a1 or can appropriately block the front, side, and upper parts of the sensor 7 appropriately. In addition, the push-pull key 12 for controlling the operation module 4 (please refer to Figure 2 ) extends out of the housing 10, and the user controls the operation of the operation module 4 through the push-pull key 12.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 1D, it is disclosed that when the sensor 7 is not placed at a predetermined position, for example, not yet inserted or not properly placed in the placement portion 13, an actuating end 51 extends out of the placement portion 13. The actuating end 51 belongs to a first locking module 5 (also known as a stop module). When the sensor 7 is correctly placed in the placement portion 13, the actuating end 51 is pressed and moves downward. The detailed operating principle will be described later (please refer to Figure 4C and 6C ).

[0049] Please refer to Figure 1E , the push-pull key 12 is provided at the bottom of the housing 10 and also has a positioning block 120. Corresponding first positioning grooves 103a and second positioning grooves 103b are formed on the housing 10. Figure 1E The positioning block 120 of Figure 6D is engaged with the first positioning groove 103a to maintain the push-pull key 12 in the first operating state. When the user presses the push-pull key 12 into the housing 10, the positioning block 120 can be disengaged from the engagement with the first positioning groove 103a. Then, when the push-pull key 12 is pushed to the second positioning groove 103b, the positioning block 120 can be engaged with it (please refer to Figure 1F ). Please refer to Figure 1G , which reveals the rear (tail) view of the charging device 1. A limiting rib 101 is provided on the inner surface of the cover plate 10a1. In addition, a first mating portion 14 is also visible, protruding from the deepest part of the placement portion 13. Please refer to

[0050] Please refer to Figure 2 , which is an exploded view of the first embodiment of the present invention. It can be seen that the housing (body) 10 in each figure of Fig. 1 can be further divided into an upper housing 10a and a lower housing 10b. The upper housing 10a includes the aforementioned indication area 11, the cover plate 10a1, and the placement portion 13. A supporting surface 13' is formed on the placement portion 13. Most of them have been described before and will not be elaborated here. A second mating portion 70 is formed on the sensor 7. As described before, in Figure 2 it can be seen that the shape of the indication area 11 is similar to the shape of the second mating portion 70. This design can be used to visually remind the user of the direction to insert the charging device. The first mating portion 14 on the charging device is convex (please refer to Figure 1F ). The second mating portion 70 of the sensor is concave. When the first mating portion and the second mating portion are combined with each other, it forms a structure to prevent misoperation and makes the first port 73 and the opening 15 correctly aligned (not shown in the figure).

[0051] Please continue to refer to Figure 2, the charging device 1 includes a charging module 3, which further includes a second electrical port 3', a circuit component 33, and a third port 44. The second port 3' includes a charging base 30, on which there is a first conductive connector 31 and a second conductive connector 32. The first conductive connector 31 is usually a gold finger type connector for transmitting power and signals; the second conductive connector 32 is usually a spring probe (Pogo Pin) for grounding. On the side of the charging base 30, there is a second guiding structure 301 as a sliding member, and the first sliding member 301 is arranged on the charging base 30 through a sliding member seat 302. The circuit component 33 is used for charging the physiological signal sensor and charging control or signal transmission control. One end of it is a circuit board 330, on which there is a light emitting component 332 and other related electronic components, and is electrically connected to the first conductive connector 31 and the second conductive connector 32. Above the light emitting component 332, there is a light guiding component 52' arranged in the upper housing 10a, usually located in the first fitting part 14 (please refer to Figure 1F ), and its shape also usually just fits the indicating area 11. Therefore, the indicating area 11 is made of a transparent or semi-transparent material, or itself is a part of the light guiding component 52'. That is to say, the shape of the light guiding component 52' corresponds to the second fitting part 70, and the indicating area 11 also serves as a signal area. The other end of the circuit component 33 is a flexible electrical connector 331, usually a flexible printed circuit board, used to maintain the electrical connection with the electrical connection plug 44 as the third electrical port to input power. The flexible electrical connector 331 can also be replaced by a power rail and sliding contact line conductive structure.

[0052] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 , the charging device 1 includes an operation module 4, which further includes an operation part 40 used to drive the charging base 30 of the second electrical port 3' to be electrically connected to the first electrical port 73 of the sensor. The operation part 40 is provided with a third electrical port 44 on it, and has a first guiding structure 41, usually a slide rail and a chute, which is coupled with the first sliding member 301. When the operation part 40 is driven to move horizontally, the first guiding structure 41 guides the first sliding member 301 to move longitudinally, and then drives the charging base 30 to move up and down. Therefore, the first sliding member 301 also serves as a second guiding structure. In addition, the aforementioned push-pull key 12 is arranged below the operation part 40, that is, the user drives the operation part 40 to move horizontally through the push-pull key 12. For the detailed operation, please refer to Figure 7A and 7B . The push-pull key 12 and the operation part 40 can be integrally formed or the two are independent components respectively.

[0053] Please continue to refer to Figure 2, the charging device 1 further includes a first locking module 5 (or a stop module 5, a first locking portion 5) that releasably restricts the movement of the second electrical port 3'. One end is an actuating end 51, and the other end is a stop end 52. The actuating end 51 extends into the placement portion 13, that is, it protrudes from the bearing surface 13'. The stop end 52 is coupled to a receiving portion 43 provided on the operating portion 40. That is, the receiving portion 43 is stopped by the stop end 52 so that it cannot move laterally. Therefore, the operating portion 40 cannot guide the first slider 301 to move longitudinally through the first guiding structure 41. Thus, the first locking module 5 achieves the effect of indirectly restricting the movement of the second electrical port 3'. In addition, the first locking module 5 further includes an elastic component 53 for keeping the actuating end 51 normally extending into the placement portion 13 when the sensor 7 is not placed in the placement portion 13. At this time, the stop end 52 also keeps the receiving portion 43 normally stopped. There is a pivoting portion 50 between the actuating end 51 and the stop end 52, which is pivotally arranged on the pivot frame 10b2 of the lower housing 10b. When the actuating end 51 is pressed by the sensor 7, the first locking module 5 can rotate with the pivoting portion 50 as the rotation center and pivot with the pivot frame 10b2 as the fulcrum (for the detailed forward and backward operations, please cooperate with Figure 4B and 5A ).

[0054] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 , the charging device 1 further includes a second locking module 6 (or a second locking portion 6, a positioning module 6, a baffle 61), which is arranged at a position on the rear side of the charging device 1 and has a baffle 61 that can extend from the baffle outlet 16 to reach the placement portion 13. And it has an elastic component 62 that provides a elastic force for the baffle 61 to extend out of the baffle outlet 16. The second locking portion 6 also has a first connection end 60 for connecting the second connection end 42. The second locking portion 6 also has a guiding structure 63, which is a notch, coupled to a guiding member 10b1 of the lower housing 10b, so that the baffle 61 can only move in the up and down direction without deviation or rotation (for the detailed operation, please cooperate with Figure 4C and 6C ). In other embodiments, a part of the charging module 3, the operating module 4, the first locking module 5 or the second locking module 6 can form a housing structure like the lower housing 10b, and form an internal space with the upper housing 10 to accommodate each component (not shown in the figure). The above operating module 4, the first locking module 5 and the second locking module 6 are collectively referred to as the control module for controlling the operation process between the sensor 7 and the charging module 3 to maintain a safe state, so that when the sensor 7 is separated from or connected to the second electrical port 3', it can be protected to avoid damage to parts caused by improper user operation (for the detailed operation, please refer to Figures 4A through 6C ). In other embodiments, the first locking module 5 or the second locking module 6 is respectively combined with the operating module 4 and collectively referred to as the control module.

[0055] Please refer toFigures 3A through 3D Among them Figure 3A it is disclosed that the sensor 7 can be detachably covered on a sensor module 8 and connected to the sensor assembly 81. The sensor module 8 includes a sensing base 80 and a sensor assembly 81. The base 80 can be adhered to the skin S through a patch ST. At this time, the sensor 7 is responsible for transmitting the signal from the sensor 810 to the outside. In principle, the sensor 7 is a reusable device, while the sensor module 8 is a disposable device.

[0056] Please refer to Figures 3B through 3D , the sensor 7 includes a battery 71 and a first electrical port 73. The first electrical port 73 includes an input part 730, and the input part 730 has an input terminal 732 and a secondary input terminal 733. The input terminal 732 is located in a jack 731. The battery 71 provides power for the operation of the sensor 7, such as the output of signals. The first electrical port 73 is a concave structure for mating with the sensor assembly 81 or the second electrical port 3' structure. The input terminal 732 is used to electrically connect to the output terminal 812 or the first conductive joint 31. In addition, the sensor 7 further includes a first snap structure 72 for snap-fitting with the second snap structure 83 of the base 80 to achieve fixation. The sensor assembly 81 is fixed in the accommodation groove 82 of the base 80. The puncture end 811 of the sensor 810 pierces into the subcutaneous tissue SC, and the output terminal 812 of the sensor 810 enters the first electrical port 73 and is electrically connected to the input terminal 732 in the sensor 7. Therefore, the signal measured by the sensor 810 can be transmitted to the outside through the sensor 7. In order to prevent the sensor 7 from being set on the base 80 in the wrong direction, the base 80 further has a mating alignment part 84 for mating with the second mating part 70. Thus, when the user covers the sensor 7 on the base 80, the installation direction can be visually distinguished through the structural appearance to achieve the anti-mistake effect. The sensor 7 described in the present invention is only one embodiment aspect, and the charging device 1 of the present invention can also be applied to sensors in other aspect. The physiological signal sensor 7 used in the present invention generally includes a sensor body 75. The body 75 further includes a circuit board 76, a battery 71 electrically connected to the circuit board 76, and a first electrical port 73, and the first electrical port is exposed outside.

[0057] Please refer to Figures 4A through 4D , which shows the state where the charging device 1 is not placed with the sensor 7. For each number therein, please refer to Figure 2 . Please refer to Figure 4A and Figure 4B, the charging module 3 is in the first operating state, the operating part 40 has not yet driven the second electrical port 3' to be located within the opening 15 in the first position (retracted state relative to the bearing surface 13'), that is, a non-charging position. There is a sliding groove 150' within the opening 15. The circuit assembly 33 is disposed within the housing 10 and includes a circuit board 330 and an electrical connector 331. Among them, a light-emitting component 332 is provided on the circuit board 330, and the circuit board 330 is electrically connected to the first conductive joint 31 within the charging base 30. The electrical connector 331 is made of a flexible material and is electrically connected to the electrical connection plug 44, usually welded to the output end of the electrical connection plug 44. A light guide member 11' is provided within the indicator area 11 in front of the upper housing 10a, and a baffle outlet 16 is provided at the rear, within which a baffle 61 sleeved on the guiding structure 10b1 is provided. The operating part 40 is also disposed within the housing 10. A push-pull key 12 is provided at its bottom, and the electrical connection plug 44 is also clamped to the fixing block 40a on the operating part 40. In another embodiment, the push-pull key can also be designed with other driving methods.

[0058] Please refer to Figure 4A and 4B , at the position corresponding to the front of the housing 10 within the placement part 13, there is a first mating part 14 for mating with the second mating part 70 of the sensor 7 (please also cooperate with Figure 1F ) to place the sensor 7 in a predetermined position. When the operating module 4 is in the first operating state, wherein the first guiding structure 41 of the operating part 40 is coupled to the second guiding structure 301 of the charging base 30, at this time, the second guiding structure 301 has not yet slid within the first guiding structure 41. In Figure 4B terms of this, the first guiding structure 41 is an inclined groove with an inclined surface, so the movement of the second guiding structure 301 is guided by the inclined surface. The operating part 40 has a blocked part 43 locked or blocked by the stop end 52 of the first locking module 5. Therefore, when the push-pull key 12 is subjected to an external force and attempts to drive the operating part 40, or when the operating part 40 itself shakes, the first guiding structure 41 will not drive the second guiding structure 301, thereby avoiding the charging base 30 of the second electrical port 3' from being accidentally driven in the direction of the second position (extended state relative to the bearing surface 13'). Additionally, since the first conductive joint 31 is relatively thin, light, short, and small, it can also avoid the problem that the first conductive joint 31 is damaged if the user attempts to forcefully place or remove the sensor 7. Figure 4B It also reveals the position where the actuating end 51 of the first locking module 5 extends into the placement part 13. There is a pivot part 50 between the actuating end 51 and the stop end 52 pivotally mounted on the pivot frame 10b2 of the lower housing 10b. Therefore, the first locking module 5 is similar to a seesaw structure. When the actuating end 51 is pressed down, the stop end 52 will rise (please refer to Figure 5A) Further, an elastic component 53 connects the first locking module and the lower housing 10b, and provides an elastic force for the first locking module 5 to maintain the actuating end 51 protruding from the bearing surface 13' when the sensor is not placed in the charging device 1 (i.e., when the actuating end 51 is not depressed).

[0059] Please refer to Figure 4C , it is revealed that when the second guiding structure 301 is not driven by the first guiding structure 41, the slider seat 302 does not move along with the second guiding structure 301. To prevent the charging base 30 from moving in an unexpected direction, the present invention further adjacently provides at least one guiding portion 150 outside the opening 15 to form a sliding groove 150', so that the sliding groove 150' communicates with the opening 15, and the slider seat 302 guides the charging base 30 to lift and lower from the opening 15 in a fixed direction within the sliding groove 150'. The second locking portion 6 further has a first connecting end 60. When the operating portion 40 is in the first operating state, the operating portion 40 is in the first position, and the first connecting end 60 engages with the second connecting end 42 on the operating portion 40 to prevent the baffle 61 from being pushed by the elastic component 62. At this time, the charging base 30 is in a first position (retracted state relative to the bearing surface 13'), and the second locking portion 6 is depressed to keep the baffle 61 within the baffle outlet 16, that is, not protruding from the baffle outlet 16, so that the second locking portion 6 releases the positioning of the sensor 7, enabling the sensor 7 to be inserted into or removed from the placement portion 13.

[0060] Please refer to Figure 4D, which discloses another embodiment of the first locking module of the charging device of the present invention. Wherein the first locking module is replaced by a locking slider 5, which has a sliding body 50, one end of which is an actuating end 51 and the other end is a stopping end 52. The second guiding structure 301 of the charging module 3 protrudes beyond the first guiding structure 41 and its upper part is blocked by the stopping end 52. When the sensor 7 is not placed in the placement part 13, the locking slider 5 is pushed by the normal force of the spring 53 towards the baffle 61 (i.e., the opening direction of the placement part 13). Therefore, when the second guiding structure 301 is pushed upward by the first guiding structure 41, it will be blocked by the stopping end 52 and cannot rise. After that, when the sensor 7 is inserted into the placement part 13 in the correct direction, that is, the second engaging part 70 faces inward, the sensor 7 can push the actuating end 51 to move deeper into the placement part 13, and then drive the locking slider 5 to move in the same direction. At this time, the stopping end 52 is separated from above the second guiding structure 301. Therefore, when the user drives the first guiding structure 41 through the push-pull key 12, the second guiding structure 301 is driven to rise, that is, the second electrical port 3' is driven to rise, and the stopping end 52 no longer blocks the second guiding structure 301. As shown in the above embodiment, in addition to restricting the movement of the second electrical port 3' by releasably coupling itself with the charging module or the operating module, when the first locking module restricts the movement of the second electrical port 3', it may be completely prohibited or only partially displaced but unable to make effective contact with the first port 73 ( Figure 3D ).

[0061] Please refer to Figures 5A through 5C together, which respectively disclose the state when the sensor 7 is placed in the predetermined position of the charging device 1 and the state when the operating part 40 is controlled to drive the second electrical port 3' to extend out of the bearing surface 13'. For the reference of the component numbers of each part, please refer to Figure 2 . Figures 3A through 3D . The components repeated in the above figures will not be described in detail here. Please refer to Figure 5A for the state where the sensor 7 is placed in a predetermined position on the bearing surface 13'. Even when the sensor 7 is in a correct relative position, the actuating end 51 is actuated by the sensor 7 to detect whether the sensor 7 is in a predetermined position. When the sensor 7 is in the predetermined position, the stopping end 52 releases the locking of the operating part 40, allowing the operating part 40 to drive the second electrical port 3' to move between the first position and the second position and form a connection or separation with the first electrical port 73. In Figure 5A , when the sensor 7 is in the predetermined position, the sensor 7 presses down the actuating end 51 to rotate the first locking module 5, and at the same time makes the stopping end 52 tilt up to release the stop on the blocked part 43 to release the movement restriction of the second electrical port 3'. At this time, the elastic component 53 is compressed, and when the sensor is taken out, the elastic restoring force of the elastic component 53 will drive the actuating end 51 to extend upward into the placement part 13 (asFigure 4B status).

[0062] Please refer to Figures 5B through 5C When the operation unit 40 is controlled to drive the second electrical port 3' to move from the first position to the second position, after the placement unit 13 itself has the sensor 7 inserted and the push-pull key 12 is operated to push out a part of the electrical connection plug 44, when it is pushed to the right in the Figures 5B - 5C direction, when the stop end 52 of the first locking module 5 (the first locking part 5) has tilted up and no longer stops the blocking part 43, the movement restriction of the second electrical port 3' is released, and the push-pull key 12 drives the operation unit 40 to move in the same direction. At this time, the first guiding structure 41 pushes the second guiding structure 301 upward, and further drives the charging base 30 to move upward from the opening 15 and move toward the first electrical port 73 of the sensor 7 (cooperating with Figure 3D , Figure 6A ), at the same time, the first conductive joint 31 moves toward the jack 731 (cooperating with Figure 3C ), at the same time, the electrical connection plug 44 partially extends out of the opening 17. In addition, when the operation unit 40 moves to the right, the second connection end 42 disengages from the first connection end 60 of the second locking part 6 (as shown in Figure 5C ), so the elastic potential energy of the elastic component 62 that was originally pressed is released to push the baffle 61 out of the baffle outlet 16 and stop the tail end of the sensor 7, thus achieving the effect of positioning the sensor 7 on the placement unit 13. Please refer to Figure 5C , which shows the state of the placement unit 13 itself with the sensor 7 inserted and the push-pull key 12 operated to push out a part of the electrical connection plug 44 with the sensor 7 hidden for a clearer description, and the position of the charging base 30 and its first conductive joint 31 during the upward movement in the opening 15.

[0063] Please also refer to Figures 6A through 6D , which reveals the state where the operation unit 40 is controlled to drive the second electrical port 3' to be in the second position after the sensor is inserted, and the state where the electrical connection plug 44 has been fully pushed out. For the component numbers in it, please cooperate with Figure 2 , Figures 3A through 3D . The components that are repeated with the above figures are not described here again. Please refer to Figure 6A and Figure 6B , when the movement restriction of the first locking module 5 on the second electrical port 3' is released, the operation unit 40 drives the second electrical port 3' to move from the opening 15 from the first position to the second position (in an extended state relative to the bearing surface 13') to be electrically connected to the first port 73, that is, in a charging position, where the charging base 30 extends out of the opening 15 to complete the combination with the input unit 730, and the first conductive joint 31 enters the jack 731 to be electrically connected to the input terminal 732 of the sensor 7 (as shown in Figure 3CThe position shown). The push-pull key 12 is pushed to the front of the housing 10, i.e., the rightmost side in the drawing, and the electrical connection plug 44 also completely extends out of the opening 17. At this time, the circuit board 330 also rises to the highest position, and at this time, the light-emitting component 332 is closest to the light guide component 52'. At this time, the light-emitting state of the light-emitting component 332 can be transmitted to the indication area 11 through the light guide component 52', so that the overall actuation stroke has both anti-misoperation and light guide effects, and effectively utilizes the internal space of the charging device 1 to miniaturize the charging device. At this time, the light-emitting component 332 is already in the state of preparing to emit light. When the electrical connection plug 44 is inserted into an external power supply, such as an AC power adapter, a computer USB socket, a vehicle charger adapter, or a device equipped with a USB socket, please cooperate with Figure 6E The charger 1 can be plugged into the USB socket on the personal computer 91, the mobile phone charger 92, or the car cigarette lighter adapter 93 (car cigarette light usb adapter), etc., so that the light-emitting component 332 can emit light to provide message indication, and use different light-emitting colors and modes to represent the usage status of the charger 1.

[0064] Please refer to Figure 6C , the operation module 4 is in the second operation state. It can be seen that when the push-pull key 12 is pushed to the front end of the housing 10 to the end, the operation part 40 also reaches the position closest to the front end of the housing 10. At this time, the second guiding structure 301 is also pushed to the highest position by the first guiding structure 41. Relatively, the electrical connection plug 44 is in Figure 6C the ejected state, and in Figure 4C the retracted state, Figure 6C It is revealed that the slider seat 302 also rises to the high position of the sliding groove 150'. The second connecting end 42 of the second locking part 6 (the baffle 61) disengages from the first connecting end 60. Therefore, the elastic potential energy of the elastic component 62 that was originally pressed is released to push the baffle 61 out of the baffle outlet 16 and block the tail end of the sensor 7, so as to position the sensor 7 on the placement part 13, so as to position the sensor 7 and lock the sensor 7 from being taken and placed, so as to avoid damage to the second port 3' caused by accidentally taking and placing the sensor 7 in the electrical connection between the first electrical port 73 and the second port 3'. Further, at this time, the second electrical port 3' is in a second position (in the extended state relative to the bearing surface 13'), and the baffle 61 extends out of the baffle outlet 61, so that the second locking part 6 positions the sensor 7 at the position of the bearing surface 13', so that the sensor 7 cannot be placed in or taken out from the placement part 13 to protect the first conductive joint 31 of the second electrical port 3' from being damaged by improper operation of the sensor 7. When the charging module 3 is in the third operation state, that is, when the operation part 40 drives the second electrical port 3' to move back from the second position to the first position to separate the first electrical port 73, and the operation part 40, through the second connecting end 42, presses the first connecting end 60 and drives the baffle 61 to lower (the operation state is as shown in Figure 4C) drive the second locking part 6 to retract to the bearing surface 13' to release the positioning lock on the sensor 7, so that the sensor 7 can be taken and placed only when the first port 73 and the second port 3' are in a separated state. Please refer to Figure 6D , in an embodiment, it is disclosed that the push-pull key 12 is located at the position closest to the front end of the housing 10, and at the same time, the positioning block 120 can be engaged into the second positioning groove 103b. After the charging is completed, first disconnect the electrical connection plug 44 from the external power supply. When pressing the push-pull key 12 into the housing 10 (please cooperate with Figure 1E the description), the positioning block 120 is disengaged from the second positioning groove 103b. At this time, the push-pull key 12 can be pushed toward the first positioning groove 103a. Finally, the positioning block 120 returns to the first positioning groove 103a. At this time, the charging base 30 is completely lowered, and the baffle 61 also returns to the baffle outlet 16 and no longer blocks the sensor 7. At this time, the sensor 7 can be removed from the placement portion 13. It can be seen that the operation of the push-pull key 12 is further combined with the positioning method between the positioning block 120 and the first positioning groove 103a and the second positioning groove 103b, which can reduce the friction loss between the opening 17 caused by improper operation or accidental movement and shaking of the user and between the first electrical port 73 and the charging base 30 of the second electrical port 3', so as to improve the durability of the overall operation structure of the charging device 1. In another embodiment, the sliding design of the push-pull key does not require the action of pressing into the housing 10.

[0065] Please refer to together Figure 7A and 7B , regarding the reference numerals of each component, please cooperate with Figure 2 and other schematic diagrams, in which the housing 10 is removed to completely reveal the relative position and connection relationship between the operation module 4 and the charging module 3. Among them Figure 7A is the first operation state of the present invention, and the second guiding structure 301 is located at the first position inside the first guiding structure 41, usually at a low position, so that the charging base 30 of the second electrical port 3' is kept in a relatively retracted position relative to the bearing surface 13'. It can be known from the previous schematic diagrams and descriptions that the charging base 30 can only move up and down. Therefore, in order to avoid accidental up and down movement of the charging base 30 caused by up and down shaking and thus drive the operation module 4, therefore, the first guiding structure 41 of the present invention is a guiding groove structure, and a first horizontal groove 41a is further extended at the first position, and its extending direction is perpendicular to the moving direction of the second guiding structure 301. Therefore, when the charging module 1 generates shaking parallel to the moving direction of the charging base 30, the first horizontal groove 41a can prevent the charging base 30 from moving due to the shaking because its extending direction is perpendicular to the moving direction of the second guiding structure 301. Figure 7BIn the second operating state of the present invention, the operating portion 40 is pushed forward, causing the second guide structure 301 to be located in a second position within the first guide structure 41, usually at a higher position, so that the charging station 30 remains in an extended position relative to the supporting surface. The first guide structure 41 of the present invention further extends in the second position to form a second transverse groove 41b, the extension direction of which is perpendicular to the movement direction of the second guide structure 301, to prevent the charging station 30 from moving due to a shaking parallel to its movement direction. Please continue Figure 7A and Figure 7B and cooperate with Figure 2 The first conductive connector 31 and the second conductive connector 32 are inserted into the circuit board 330, and Figure 7B Charging module 3 ( Figure 2 ) is already in a rechargeable state.

[0066] See also Figure 7C , is a side elevational cross-sectional view of another embodiment of the charging module and operating module of the present invention. It reveals that the baffle 61 is directly connected to the charging base 30 via a connector 6', allowing the two to rise and fall in complete synchrony. The charging base 30 can also be integrally formed with the baffle 61 and connector 6'. In other words, the charging module 3 can be integrally formed with the baffle 61, which serves as a second locking module. The operating module 4 and the charging module 3 are magnetically coupled. A first magnetic component MP1 is located below the charging module 3, while a second magnetic component MP2 and a third magnetic component MP3 are located above the operating module 4. The first magnetic component MP1 and the second magnetic component MP2 have opposite polarities, while the third magnetic component MP3 attracts each other. Therefore, when the operating module 4 is in the second operating state (pushed to the right), the second magnetic component MP2 is located below the first magnetic component MP1, pushing the charging module 3 upward through the repulsive force, and simultaneously driving the baffle 61 upward and extending out of the baffle outlet 16. Furthermore, when the operating module 4 is in the first operating state (pushed to the left to the bottom), the third magnetic component MP3 is located below the first magnetic component MP1, pulling the charging module 3 downward through suction and simultaneously driving the baffle 61 to retract downward to the baffle outlet 16.

[0067] Please also read Figures 8A through 9B , please refer to the component numbers Figure 2 and other figures. The components and actions that are repeated in the above figures are not repeated here. Figure 8A and Figure 9A , are all cross-sectional views of the charging module of the present invention with the sensor installed in the state of use. It can be seen that the sensor 7 has been placed on the placement portion 13, and the second matching portion 70 is matched with the first matching portion 14, so that the sensor 7 is in a correct relative position or a predetermined position. At this time, the first port 73 is aligned with the opening 15, so when the charging base 30 (please match Figure 6A ) can be correctly electrically connected to the first port 73 when it is raised.Figure 8A With Figure 8B , the position of the actuating end 51 is substantially equivalent to the position of the first engaging portion 14 in the lateral direction. Therefore, only when the sensor 7 reaches the end of the stroke can it press the actuating end 51 to rotate the first locking module 5 and no longer block the receiving portion 43 (please refer to Figure 5A ). The actuating end 51 is arranged at the end of the abutting surface 13' to reduce the frictional force with the bottom of the sensor 7. In other embodiments, the position of the actuating end 51 is not limited to other positions. Further, since the first engaging portion 14 is a convex structure extending into the placing portion 13 (as shown in Figure 1F ), recessed areas are naturally formed on both sides thereof, and the actuating end 51 is arranged in the recessed areas. On the contrary, the second engaging portion 70 of the sensor 7 is a recessed structure formed inward, so convex structures are formed on both sides of the second engaging portion 70. Therefore, when the second engaging portion 70 is engaged with the first engaging portion 14, the two convex structures on both sides of the second engaging portion 70 will enter the recessed areas, and then the convex structures will touch the actuating end 51 to make the blocking end 52 tilt up and no longer block the receiving portion 43. At this time, the baffle 61 can extend out from the baffle outlet 16 to block the bottom surface of the tail end of the sensor 7, so as to achieve the effect of locking the sensor 7. In Figure 8B , when the sensor is inserted into the charger 1 in the wrong direction, if the tail end of the sensor 7 enters the placing portion 13, due to being blocked by the first engaging portion 14, the front end of the sensor 7 presses above the baffle 61, so that the baffle 61 cannot extend out from the baffle outlet 16, and the first electrical port 73 is not aligned with the opening 15. At the same time, since the tail end of the sensor 7 cannot reach the end of the insertion stroke, the sensor 7 cannot press the actuating end 51, so the blocking end 52 still continues to block the receiving portion 43. Therefore, the operating portion 40 cannot move, and further the charging base 30 cannot be exposed from the top surface of the opening 15, preventing the first conductive joint 31 from abnormally colliding with the sensor 7 and possible damage to extend the service life of the charging device 1, that is, at this time it is a safe state to prevent the first conductive joint 31 on the second electrical port 3' from hitting the sensor 7. At this time, the second connecting end 42 also still restricts the first connecting end 60 so that the baffle 61 cannot extend out. When this phenomenon occurs, it can also be used as a reminder to the user that the sensor 7 is placed in the wrong direction.

[0068] Please refer to Figure 9A and Figure 9B , compared with Figure 8A and Figure 8B , the actuating end 51 is arranged at a place far from the recessed area. During the placement process of the sensor 7, after the two convex structures first press the actuating end 51 to make the blocking end 52 tilt up and no longer block the receiving portion 43, they will enter the recessed area and engage with the first engaging portion 14, and then the baffle 61 can extend out from the baffle outlet 16 to block the tail end of the sensor 7. In Figure 9BIn the case where the sensor is inserted into the charger 1 in the wrong direction, since the sensor 7 enters the placement portion 13 with its tail end, the bottom of the front end of the sensor 7 presses above the baffle 61, so that the baffle 61 cannot extend out of the baffle outlet 16, and the first electrical port 73 is also not aligned with the opening 15. At the same time, although the sensor 7 can touch the actuating end 51 and make the blocking end 52 tilt up and no longer block the blocked portion 43, the movable distance of the operating portion 40 is controlled so that at least the first conductive joint 31 cannot be exposed from the top surface of the opening 15, to prevent the bottom of the sensor 7 and the first conductive joint 31 from being damaged due to improper operation. At this time, only a part of the electrical connection plug 44 can be pushed out, so it can still be used as a reminder to the user that there is an error in the placement direction of the sensor 7 at this time, that is, at this time, it is a safe state and can prevent the first conductive joint 31 on the second electrical port 3' from hitting the sensor 7.

[0069] Please refer to together Figure 10 , which is a schematic diagram of the contact points of the first conductive joint of the present invention. The first conductive joint 31 is presented as but not limited to a gold finger-shaped contact point, and the configuration of the contact end 310 of the first conductive joint 31 is the same as the configuration of the sensor output end 812 (such as Figures 3B - 3D shown), so both the contact end 310 and the output end 812 can be inserted into the jack 731 of the first electrical port 73 of the sensor 7. Therefore, the first conductive joint 31 can share the first electrical port 73 with the output end 812 to save the internal space of the sensor 7. Please continue to refer to Figure 10 , and refer to at the same time Figure 11 , Figure 11 , which is a schematic circuit diagram of the charging device and the sensor of the present invention. It is disclosed that the circuit component 33 in the charger 1 has a charging circuit group 1A and a calibration circuit group 1B. The contact end 310 of the first conductive joint 31 is presented as but not limited to 8 contact points BAT, SW, RX, TX, E1, E2, E3, E4, which can be adjusted according to the number of contact points of the sensor output end 812. The charging circuit group 1A is electrically connected to the third electrical port 44 to input power. The charging circuit group 1A is used to provide and control a charging voltage. The charging circuit component 1A then charges the sensor 7 through the contact point VBAT to output the charging voltage to charge the sensor 7, and the contact point SW serves as a charging switch. The remaining contact points are used to connect the calibration circuit group 1B of the charging device 1 and the sensing module 74 of the sensor 7, so as to facilitate the detection of sensor functions including data transmission, control detection self-calibration, leakage current measurement, and / or resistance measurement functions. In another embodiment, the charging device 1 can also only provide a charging function.

[0070] Please refer to Figures 12A through 12F wherein Figure 12ADisclosed is a moisture-proof component 2, which has a housing 20 roughly in the shape of a can body, such as at least one of a cylindrical, elliptical cylindrical or flat cylindrical tank body, for accommodating the charging device 1 or the sensor 7 or the charging device 1 containing the sensor 7 to form a moisture-proof component 2. The moisture-proof component 2 further has an opening 23', and a first snap edge 23 is formed beside the opening 23'. The opening 23' has an opening direction perpendicular to the opening 23', and the protruding direction of the first snap edge 23 is perpendicular to the opening direction. A cover body 24 is movably arranged on the housing 20 and is used for sealing the opening 23'. Wherein, a second snap edge 25 is also formed on the inner side of the cover body 24, and its protruding direction is opposite to that of the first snap edge 23 so that the two are snapped with each other. Further, an elastic component 22 is arranged in the housing 20. When the charging device 1 is placed in the housing 20 and the cover body 24 seals the opening 23', the charging device 1 is pressed by the cover body 24 and retracts into the housing 20, so that the elastic component 22 undergoes elastic deformation (please cooperate with Figure 12C ), and when the cover body 24 is opened, the elastic component 22 releases the elastic potential energy and pushes the charging device 1 out, so that at least a part of the charging device 1 protrudes outside the housing, facilitating the user to take it out (as shown in Figure 12B ). When the sensor 7 has a charging requirement, the charging device 1 is taken out of the housing 20 and used to connect to an external power source to charge the sensor 7. The elastic component 22 can be a compression spring, such as a conical spring, a coil spring, a helical spring, etc. By having an interference relationship with the charging device 1, the elastic component 22 can also fix the position of the fitting in the container and prevent it from shaking, as shown in Figure 12C . When a conical spring is used, since the diameters of the coils of the conical spring increase significantly from top to bottom, when the cover body 24 seals the opening 23' as shown in Figure 12C and presses the charging device 1 into the housing 20, and the charging device 1 further compresses the elastic component 22, the upper coil of the spring can be pressed into the lower coil. Therefore, compared with a general cylindrical helical spring, the advantage is that it can be compressed to a shorter length, which is beneficial to reducing the volume of the moisture-proof component. When the charging device is in the placed state, the compressed height Hcompress of the spring plus the length H1 of the charging device is less than the height H2 of the housing. When the charging device is in the taken-out state, the extended height Hextend of the spring plus the length H1 of the charging device is greater than the height H2 of the housing. Please continue to refer to Figure 12A and 12C, wherein the housing 20 is further divided into a first accommodating space 20' and a second accommodating space 21. The first accommodating space 20' is used to store the charging device 1, and the second accommodating space 21 is used to accommodate the desiccant 29. There is a hole structure 28 between the two, so that the moisture in the first accommodating space 20' can pass through the hole structure 28 to reach the second accommodating space 21, and the desiccant 29 absorbs the moisture to prevent the sensor 7 from being affected by moisture. The sensor 7 disclosed according to the first embodiment is approximately 32.8 mm * 19.8 mm * 4.15 mm (+ / - 0.5 mm), the size of the charging device 1 is approximately 40 * 26 * 23 mm (+ / - 0.5 mm), the sensor is installed on the charger, and the volume of the moisture-proof component 2 is not greater than 200 cubic centimeters, or between 12 and 138 cubic centimeters, or between 25 and 100 cubic centimeters, or between 30 and 70 cubic centimeters. Its diameter range is designed to be between 2 and 5 centimeters or the length multiplied by the width is controlled at approximately 3 to 28 square centimeters, and the height is designed to be between 4 and 7 centimeters, making the volume of the moisture-proof component miniaturized and convenient for users to carry.

[0071] Please refer to Figures 12D through 12F , which discloses other embodiments in which the sensor 7 is placed inside the moisture-proof component 2. In Figure 12D , the state where only the sensor 7 is placed inside the moisture-proof component 2 with the hole structure 28 is disclosed. The desiccant 29 is also arranged inside the housing 20, such as at the bottom. In Figure 12E , it is disclosed that the elastic component 22 is directly arranged at the bottom of the housing 20, and the desiccant 29 is also arranged inside the housing 20. In addition, the desiccant 29 can also be selectively arranged on the inner surface of the cover 24. When the housing 20 is opened, the desiccant 29 faces outward, facilitating replacement. As for Figure 12F , the state where only the sensor 7 is placed inside the moisture-proof component 2 with the hole structure 28 is disclosed. In another embodiment, the desiccant 29 can be integrally formed on the housing or the inner wall, so that the housing 20 does not need to be divided into different accommodating spaces (not shown in the figure). In addition, the pushed part 27 facilitates the user to open the cover 24. The moisture-proof component 2 can properly protect the charging device 1 and isolate external moisture when it is not in use, and further dehumidify the sensor 7 and / or the charging device 1 with the internal desiccant to extend the service life and avoid damage to electronic components caused by moisture. The housing 20 can also be provided with a structure similar to the observation area 21'. The observation area is a part (local) of the housing and is injection molded with a transparent or translucent material. If a moisture-absorbing and color-changing desiccant or an additional drying indication component (not shown in the figure) is used, it is easy to check the moisture state of the sensor 7 and / or the charging device 1.

[0072] The usage method of the moisture-proof component 2 is to provide the first sensor and the second sensor to the user at the same time. The first moisture-proof component includes the first sensor and the moisture-proof component 2. The second moisture-proof component includes the second sensor combined with the charging device and is placed inside the moisture-proof component 2. The user will first use the first sensor for measurement. When the power of the first sensor is low to a bottom limit value, it is removed from the base, and the second sensor and the charging device 1 are taken out from the moisture-proof component 2. The second sensor is used to be installed on the base, while the first sensor is placed in the placement part 13 of the charging device 2 to charge the first sensor. After the charging is completed, the component combining the first sensor and the charging device is put back into the moisture-proof component 2 for storage, so that the first sensor and the second sensor can be alternately charged and used. The moisture-proof component 2 for the first sensor is in any form of container.

[0073] Please refer to Figure 13A , which is another embodiment of the charging device of the present invention, and please cooperate with Figure 2 . Different from the previous embodiments, the charging device 1 electrically connects the third electrical port (USB socket 44') and the circuit board 330 of the second port 3' through the wire 331'. The wire 331' also has a certain flexibility to bend to adapt to the lifting of the charging module 3. In addition, Figure 13A different from the previous embodiments, its third electrical port replaces the electrical connection plug 44 (USB plug) with a USB socket 44', and further forms a power storage unit 45 with a rechargeable battery 46 and a power supply circuit board 47. The power storage unit 45 is electrically connected to the charging module 3 to input power to charge the sensor 7. In addition, the user can also connect the USB socket 44' to an external power source to repeatedly replenish the power of the rechargeable battery 46 to increase the convenience of use. In another embodiment, the power storage unit 45 can omit the USB socket and be equipped with a disposable battery, such as common dry batteries, button batteries, etc. in the market. In another embodiment, the rechargeable battery 46 can also be omitted, and the USB socket 44' is connected to an external power source 9 ( Figure 13B , and Figure 6E label numbers 91, 92, 93) to supply power to charge the sensor 7. As for Figure 2 the operation part 40 of the operation module 4 shown is not disclosed in Figure 13A , but it is actually still used in this embodiment. It is only not drawn in this figure because it will cover the power storage unit 45. The connection relationship and the interlocking manner between the operation part 40 and the second electrical port 3' of the charging module 3 are mainly through the coupling between the first guiding structure 41 and the second guiding structure 301. The action relationship between the two is as described above. But different from the previous embodiments, Figure 13A , Figure 13BThe operation part 40 is not fixed to the USB socket 44' (the third electrical port). Instead, the USB socket 44' is only fixed within the charging device 1, and the jacks of the socket 44' are exposed. Therefore, when the push-pull key 12 is operated, only the second guiding structure 301 is driven through the first guiding structure 41, and the USB socket 44' does not move. Figure 13A For the functions of other components, please also refer to the previous figures and descriptions, which will not be elaborated here.

[0074] Please refer to Figure 13B , which is another embodiment of the charging device of the present invention, and please also refer to Figure 2 , Figure 13B and Figure 13A The biggest difference from the embodiment is that the power storage unit 45 electrically connects the power supply circuit board 47 to the circuit board 330 for the charging base 30 through the looped wire 331". Basically, it still drives the charging base 30 of the second electrical port 3' and the circuit board 330 to move up and down through the displacement of the push-pull key 12 ( Figure 13B not shown) of the charging device 1, and thereby indirectly drives the telescopic change of the looped wire 331". In another embodiment, the looped wire 331" can also be replaced by a spring connector (POGO pin). For the functions of other components, please also refer to the previous figures and descriptions, which will not be elaborated here. In Figure 13A and 13B , the USB socket 44' as the third electrical port is designed not to move back and forth.

[0075] Please refer to Figure 14A and 14B , which discloses another embodiment of the charging device. The charging device 1 includes a placement seat 13 for placing the sensor 7. The placement seat 13 further includes a supporting surface 13' for placing the sensor 7, and the supporting surface 13' includes an opening 15 ( Figure 4A ). And on the opposite side of the supporting surface 13', a charging module 3 is provided, including a second electrical port 3', circuit components 33, and a third electrical port 44. The second electrical port 3' is configured within an opening 15 (please refer to Figure 4A ) for electrically connecting to the first electrical port 73 (please refer to Figure 3D ). The third electrical port 44 is used to connect to an external or internal power supply (please refer to the reference numerals 91, 92, 93 in Figure 6E or the reference numeral 46 in Figure 13B ), and the circuit components 33 (please refer to Figure 2)Then it is connected between the second electrical port 3' and the third electrical port 44 for charging and charging control of the physiological signal sensor 7. A control module is also provided on the opposite side of the relative bearing surface 13', which is used to control the safe operation between the sensor 7 and the charging module 3, including an operation part 40, and the operation part 40 is used to drive the electrical connection between the second electrical port 3' and the first electrical port 73. A first locking part 5 is also provided on the opposite side of the relative bearing surface 13', which can releasably limit the electrical connection between the second electrical port 3' and the first electrical port 73 or further can releasably limit the displacement of the second electrical port 3'. For the detailed operation of the first locking part 5, please refer to Figure 4B 、 5A and 6B for description, which will not be elaborated here. Please refer to Figure 14A and 14B . On the other end of the bearing surface 13' relative to the indication area 11, a second locking part 61 is provided, which can be telescoped on the bearing surface 13' to fix the position of the sensor 7. Further, the second locking part 6 includes a baffle 61, and the baffle 61 is sleeved on a guide rod 10b3 and can be translated up and down, and is connected to the lower part of the bearing surface 13' through a spring 62', and the baffle 61 is normally maintained to protrude from the bearing surface 13' by the elastic force provided by the spring 62'. Please also refer to Figures 14A through 14B . When the sensor 7 is placed on the bearing surface 13', during the placement process, the sensor 7 will first press the baffle 61 to retract into the bearing surface 13'. After the first engaging part 14 and the second engaging part 70 are engaged, the sensor 7 just leaves above the baffle 61 and no longer blocks it. At this time, the baffle 61 is subjected to the elastic restoring force of the spring 62' and protrudes from the bearing surface 13' again. When the sensor 7 is to be taken out, first push the push-pull key 12 to the left to lower the charging base 30 to release the electrical connection, and then as long as the baffle 61 is pressed into the bearing surface 13' so that it no longer blocks the tail of the sensor 7, the sensor 7 can be translated to the left and leave the bearing surface 13' and the placement part 13. Figure 14A and 14B The characteristics of the second locking part 6 shown in can also be applied to the embodiments of other charging devices of the present invention. For example, Figure 1A in terms of, the baffle 61 retracted under the bearing surface 13' can be regarded as being pressed down by the user to facilitate the insertion of the sensor 7 into the placement part 13. The user can also directly press the baffle 61 through the sensor 7 as shown in Figure 14A . During the placement process, if the second engaging part 70 is correctly inserted into the placement part 13 inward to cooperate with the first engaging part 11 to achieve the result that the sensor 7 is in the correct relative position, the baffle 61 will no longer be blocked by the sensor 7 because the sensor 7 reaches a deeper position of the placement part 13 and can be affected by the elastic component 62( Figure 2 、 Figure 5B) is pushed by the restoring force and protrudes again on the bearing surface 13 '. It can be seen that if Figure 14A and Figure 14B If the baffle 61 is provided, the first connecting end 60 of the second locking portion 6 and the second connecting end 42 of the operating portion 40 can be eliminated.

[0076] See also Figure 15 , which discloses an embodiment without the cover plate 10a1, therefore, the supporting surface 13' itself serves as the placement portion, and an indicator area 11 is provided at one end of the supporting surface 13' as the first matching portion to provide a visual prompt effect so that the user can connect, match, and engage the second matching portion 70 with it. The first locking module 5 ( Figure 2 、 Figure 4B ) of the actuating end 51 ( Figure 1D 、 Figure 1F 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 4B ) also protrudes from the supporting surface 13'. In addition, a baffle outlet 16 is provided at the other end of the supporting surface 13'. The baffle 61 ( Figure 2 、 Figure 4C 、 Figure 5C Since there is no cover plate 10a1 in this embodiment, in order to prevent the sensor 7 from escaping upward (ie, in the axial direction of the supporting surface 13'), a support plate 10a1 is provided on the supporting surface 13'. Figure 3D The second snap-fit structure 83 on the base 80 is shown as interlocking with the first snap-fit structure 72 of the sensor 7, thereby securing the sensor 7 to the supporting surface 13'. Furthermore, to further stabilize the sensor 7 on the supporting surface 13' and prevent it from falling off due to accidental impact, side walls 102' are formed on the supporting surface 13'. These side walls 102' are typically arranged in pairs, i.e., located on either side of the supporting surface 13'. When the sensor 7 is secured to the supporting surface 13', the side walls 102' fit over the sides of the sensor 7, thereby assisting in securing the sensor 7 laterally. Please refer to the previous drawings and descriptions for the functions of the other components, which will not be elaborated here.

[0077] See also Figures 16A through 16B, which is another embodiment of the charging device. Except for components and structures such as the push button 12', the stop end 52 of the first locking module 5, and the avoidance notch 52' being different from those in the embodiments of the previous figures, the remaining components and structures are the same as those before. The second port 3' (or the charging base 30) moves in a rising and falling manner. Therefore, the second port 3' of this embodiment is connected to the push button 12' to drive the lifting of the charging base 30, usually in the structure of a latch button. The pressing member 12' can also be part of the charging module 1 or an independent operating component. When pressed once, the charging base 30 rises and gets stuck. When pressed again, the locking is released and it returns to its original position, that is, the position when not pressed. While operating the push button 12', the second slider 302 of the charging base 30 also slides up and down between the two guiding parts 150. Or the push button 12' is positioned by the positioning button 180, which will be described in detail later. Please refer to Figure 16A , it is revealed that the sensor 7 has not been inserted into the placement part 13. Therefore, at this time, the actuating end 51 of the stop file module 5 also extends into the placement part 13 (please refer to Figure 1D ). At this time, when the push button 12' is pressed into the main body, the stop end 52 will block the receiving part 43, thereby blocking the charging base 30 from entering the placement part 13. In another embodiment, the receiving part 43 may also be formed on the charging base 30 (not shown in the figure), or in another embodiment, a locking slider 5 as shown in Figure 4D is used. Please refer to Figure 16B , it is revealed that the sensor 7 has been inserted into the placement part 13. Therefore, at this time, the actuating end 51 has been pressed down by the sensor 7, causing the first locking module 5 to rotate so that the avoidance notch 52' aligns with the receiving part 43. In other words, the stop end 52 moves away from above the receiving part 43. At this time, when the push button 12' is pressed into the main body, the receiving part 43 can continue to rise through the avoidance notch 52', allowing the charging base 30 to enter the placement part 13. When the push button 12' moves inward, the stop end 52 enters the avoidance space 43' relatively to avoid interference with the push button 12'. In addition, as shown in Figure 16C and 16D , the pivot frame 10a2 of the upper housing 10a and the pivot frame 10b2 of the lower housing 10b together clamp the pivot part 50 of the first locking module 5 in a rotatable manner. The lower housing 10b also has a blocking structure 10b3 to prevent the movement of the stop end 52 to avoid the actuating end 51 extending too far into the placement part 13. The charging device 1 further includes a second locking module 6, which is provided with a positioning part 61, connected to an elastic unit 62 (such as Figure 5C , Figure 6A ), so it can extend out of the supporting surface 13' in a liftable manner to lock the installation position of the physiological signal sensor 7.

[0078] Please refer to Figure 16E, in order to fully observe the relationship between the positioning button 180 and the positioning groove 10b3, the positioning button 180 has been moved from within the positioning groove 10b3 to above. Inside the positioning groove 10b3, there are a pair of first positioning blocks 10b31 and second positioning blocks 10b32 arranged. Below the first positioning block 10b31 is the first state position 10b31p, that is, the position when the pressing key 12' is at the lowest position. Through the first positioning block 10b31, the positioning shoulder 180a can be blocked, thereby preventing the positioning button 180 from moving upward, that is, achieving the effect of blocking the upward movement of the pressing key 12'. Above the second positioning block 10b32 is the second state position 10b32p, that is, the position when the pressing key 12' is at the highest position. Through the second positioning block 10b32, the positioning shoulder 180a can be blocked, thereby preventing the positioning button 180 from moving downward, that is, achieving the effect of blocking the downward movement of the pressing key 12'. Further, if the pressing key 12' is to be moved from the first state position 10b31p to the second state position 10b32p, only need to press the positioning button 180 inward to bend the elastic structure 180c, and align the channel 180b with the first positioning block 10b31 and the second positioning block 10b32, then the pressing key 12' can be operated or the positioning button 180 can be pushed upward. At this time, each positioning block (10b31, 10b32) can relatively pass through the channel 180b without being blocked by the positioning shoulder 180a. Similarly, if the pressing key 12' is to be returned to the lowest position, that is, the position of the first state, press the positioning button 180 inward to bend the elastic structure 180c, and align the channel 180b with the second positioning block 10b32 and the first positioning block 10b31, then the positioning button 180 can be pushed downward, thereby driving the pressing key 12' back to the position of the first state. In addition, a return component (not shown in the figure, which can be an elastic component or a magnetic component) can also be provided between the pressing key 12' or the second electrical port 3' and the upper housing 10a or the lower housing 10b. That is, when the pressing key 12' is pressed to electrically connect the second electrical port 3' to the first electrical port 73, a potential energy is given to the return component, and the pressing key 12' relies on the positioning shoulder 180a to abut against the second positioning block 10b32 to resist the potential energy. Also, when the positioning button 180 is pressed inward and the channel 180b is aligned with the second positioning block 10b32, the positioning shoulder 180a is no longer blocked by the second positioning block 10b32, and the potential energy is also released, thereby causing the pressing key 12' to return to the initial position.

[0079] Those skilled in the art can understand through the foregoing Figure 2 and various different embodiments of the present invention that the charging module disclosed by the charging device 1 can operate independently in cooperation with the sensor 7, or the charging module can be respectively used in cooperation with the operation module (such as Figure 4A the operation part), or used in cooperation with the first locking module (such as Figure 4B , 4DThe first locking part 5 or the locking slider 5), or used in combination with the second locking part (such as Figure 4C or the baffle 61 of 14A is linked with the second electrical port 3' through the connecting member 61'( Figure 7C )); or the charging module 3 is used in combination with the operation module 4 and the first locking module 5 at the same time (such as Figure 4B the operation part 40 and the first locking part 5); or the charging module 3 is used in combination with the operation module 4 and the second locking part 6 at the same time (such as Figure 4C the operation part 40 and the second locking part 6), or the charging module 3 is used in combination with the operation module 4, the first locking module 5 and the second locking part 6 at the same time.
