[0002] The fat meter is an instrument that uses the bioelectrical impedance method, a non-invasive measurement method, to estimate the degree of human obesity and to detect the body fat level. The principle of the fat meter can be said to be to use the characteristics of fat tissue that is difficult to conduct electricity and muscle that is easy to conduct electricity, and to use the bioelectrical impedance method for measurement. It can measure data such as body fat percentage, body water percentage, visceral fat, and thus determine the body fat percentage.
[0003] For some special groups of people, that is, people with leg disabilities, when they measure their viscera, in order to measure the visceral fat of people with leg disabilities, they also need to take off their prostheses and stand on the fat measuring instrument. However, the existing visceral fat measuring instruments cannot contact the human legs at a height, and when in use, they need to stand for a certain period of time and perform some limb movements, which is still relatively difficult for people with leg disabilities. These are all problems in visceral fat measurement. For this reason, we propose a visceral fat measurement device based on patient health. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0031] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0032] See also Figure 1-8 , the present invention provides a technical solution: a visceral fat measuring device based on patient health, comprising a visceral fat measuring instrument body 1, on which a foot standing portion 2 and a hand holding portion 3 are provided;
[0033] like Figure 1 Show:
[0034] A support member 4 is slidably connected to the foot standing part 2 for supporting the leg of a patient with a leg disability on either side, and a protective member 5 is provided inside the support member 4 for cushioning the residual limb of the patient with a leg disability.
[0035] A plurality of slide grooves 6 are provided on the foot standing portion 2, and a sliding member 7 is provided between the support member 4 and the slide groove 6, and the sliding member 7 can drive the support member 4 to connect with the slide groove 6;
[0036] A fixing member 8 is provided between the visceral fat measuring instrument body 1 and the supporting member 4, and the fixing member 8 locks the position of the supporting member 4;
[0037] When the present invention is used by normal people, it does not need to be supported by the support member 4, and it does not affect the normal visceral fat measurement. When used by disabled people, the support member 4 can be used to support their legs, which is convenient for supporting the legs of patients with leg disabilities when measuring visceral fat, and the disabled patients are those who have amputated below the calf.
[0038] like Figure 3-Figure 7 Show:
[0039] The support member 4 includes two sets of support plates 41, a threaded rod 42 is provided in the support plate 41 on either side, and a moving rod 43 is provided in the support plate 41 on the other side, and the threaded rod 42 passes through the support plate 41 and is provided with a knob 44;
[0040] A first moving block 45 is provided on the threaded rod 42, and a second moving block 46 is provided on the moving rod 43. A staggered support frame 47 is provided between the first moving block 45 and the second moving block 46. The support frame 47 is connected to the protective member 5, and the support frame 47 is connected to a placement plate 48 through the protective member 5.
[0041] A support block 49 is provided at the bottom of the two groups of support plates 41, and the threaded rod 42 is installed on the support block 49, and an abutment spring 410 is provided between the end of the support block 49 away from the threaded rod 42 and the support plate 41, and a connecting plate 411 is connected to the support block 49, and a connection plate 412 is provided at the bottom of the connecting plate 411, and a power supply device 9 is provided between the connection plate 412 and the placement plate 48;
[0042] The placement plate 48 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 481 for placing the residual limb;
[0043] When measuring the legs of patients with leg disabilities, the support plate 41 is installed just above the foot standing part 2. The installation can be carried out according to the actual disability of the left and right legs of the patient. If the left leg of the patient with leg disabilities is disabled, the support plate 41 can be installed on the left side. Otherwise, it can be installed on the right side of the foot standing part 2. First, the patient places the disabled leg in the annular groove 82 of the placement plate 48. The annular groove 82 can place the residual limb and fit the residual limb of the patient, so that the patient is in a more comfortable environment. After placement, the weight of the patient's legs acts on the placement plate 48, and the entire weight of the placement plate 48 is transmitted through the first moving block 45 and the second moving block 46. Acting on the support block 49, the bottom of the support block 49 is provided with an abutment spring 410, and the support block 49 bears the weight of the patient's residual limb, thereby pressing the abutment spring 410 downward, so that the connecting plate 411 and the connecting plate 412 connected to the connecting plate 411 are in contact with the foot standing part 2, so that the patient's residual limb presents a closed path with the foot standing part 2 through the placement plate 48 and the connecting plate 412, wherein the principle of setting the connecting plate 412 to be connected with the placement plate 48 is the same as the principle of being able to measure human body fat on the foot standing part 2, which belongs to the prior art and will not be elaborated here, thereby achieving the purpose of measuring visceral fat for patients with leg disabilities;
[0044] In order to cope with the situation that the length of the amputated limb of the patient is different, the first movable block 45 and the second movable block 46 can be moved up and down to adjust the height of the placement plate 48. First, according to the length of the amputated limb of the leg-disabled patient, the knob 44 is turned. When the knob 44 is turned, the first movable block 45 and the second movable block 46 can move up and down at a uniform speed. A limiting groove is provided between the first movable block 45 and the second movable block 46 and the support plate 41, which can make the placement plate 48 only translate but not rotate, thereby controlling the distance between the placement plate 48 and the legs of the leg-disabled patient, thereby making it have a wider range of use.
[0045] like Figure 7 Show:
[0046] The power supply device 9 includes a power supply rod 91 mounted on the connecting plate 411, and a power supply slider 92 is provided on the placement plate 48;
[0047] In the invention, the placement plate 48 and the connection plate 412 can be electrically connected by metal contact, and its principle can be the same as the positive and negative poles of the battery. At the same time, the placement plate 48 and the connection plate 412 can also be electrically connected by wire connection.
[0048] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 Show:
[0049] The sliding member 7 includes a sliding plate 71 installed at the bottom of the two sets of support plates 41, and rollers 72 are provided on both sides of the sliding plate 71 for easy rolling, and a sliding groove 6 is provided on the foot standing part 2, and the sliding groove 6 is slidably connected with the sliding plate 71;
[0050] When installing the support plate 41, the first step is to introduce the sliding plate 71 into the foot standing part 2 through the slide groove 6. The roller 72 provided can reduce the friction generated by the sliding plate 71 when moving in the slide groove 6, and can enable the sliding plate 71 to move flexibly in the slide groove 6.
[0051] like Figure 6-Figure 7 Show:
[0052] The protection member 5 includes a plurality of buffer springs 51 installed between the placement plate 48 and the support frame 47, and a telescopic rod 52 is provided inside the buffer spring 51;
[0053] A connecting column 53 is provided at the bottom of the placement plate 48, a rotating ball 54 is provided on the connecting column 53, and a rotating groove 55 is provided on the support frame 47, and the rotating ball 54 matches the rotating groove 55;
[0054] When the leg-disabled patient stands on the visceral measuring instrument body at the beginning, he cannot adapt to the support of the placement plate 48 and is prone to shaking. If the placement plate 48 and the support frame 47 are fixedly connected, the leg-disabled patient will easily apply the weight of the body to the placement plate 48 in an unstable situation, thereby causing damage to the residual limb. In this case, the rotating ball 54 and the rotating groove 55 can rotate to reduce damage to the body. In order to reduce this shaking, a buffer spring 51 is also provided between the support frame 47 and the placement plate 48, and is provided at the four corners of the placement plate 48, so as to provide support for the leg-disabled person when shaking at all angles. Under the action of the buffer spring 51, not only the amplitude of the shaking can be reduced, but also the damage to the patient's legs can be reduced.
[0055] like Figure 2 Show:
[0056] The fixing member 8 includes a plurality of fixing blocks 81, and grooves 82 are formed at the bottom of the plurality of fixing blocks 81. A limit spring 83 is provided between the groove 82 and the body 1 of the visceral fat measuring instrument.
[0057] A pressing plate 84 is provided between the fixing blocks 81, and a pressing button 85 is provided on the pressing plate 84;
[0058] In order to install the sliding plate 71 and the support plate 41 on the visceral fat measuring instrument body 1, it is necessary to first press the pressing button 85 downward with a finger. The pressing button 85 is subjected to a downward force to act on the pressing plate 84, and a limit spring 83 is arranged in the fixed block 81. Under the action of the pressing plate 84, the limit spring 83 is squeezed, so that the fixed block 81 also descends along the direction in which the limit spring 83 is compressed. After the fixed block 81 is lowered to the same height as the visceral fat measuring instrument body 1, the sliding plate 71 and the support plate 41 are connected and put in. Finally, the pressing button 85 is released. Under the action of the limit spring 83, the fixed block 81 bounces upward, thereby limiting the position of the sliding plate 71 and the support plate 41.
[0059] Working principle:
[0060] When the device is not used by a patient with leg disabilities, the support plate 41 does not need to be installed on the visceral fat measuring device body 1, and the normal visceral fat measuring operation can be performed.
[0061] Visceral fat measurement in patients with leg disability:
[0062] First, the pressing button 85 is pressed downward, and the fixing block 81 is moved downward under the drive of the limiting spring 83 to be flush with the surface of the visceral fat measuring instrument body 1, and then the support plate 41 and the sliding plate 71 are introduced into the slide groove 6, and the friction generated during the installation process is reduced by the roller 72, which can also make the connection between the two smoother. After the connection is completed, the pressing button 85 is released, and the fixing block 81 is moved upward under the action of the limiting spring 83, thereby limiting the support plate 41;
[0063] Secondly, patients with leg disabilities can place their legs on the placement plate 48. Before placement, they can turn the knob 44 according to the length of the residual limbs of the patients with leg disabilities to adjust the height of the placement plate 48 up and down. After the adjustment is completed, the patients with leg disabilities can place the residual limbs in the arc groove 481 in the placement plate 48. When the placement plate 48 is subjected to the weight of the residual limb, it can act on the bottom support block 49 in the support plate 41. The support block 49 compresses the abutment spring 410 downward, thereby moving the connecting plate 411 downward, and driving the connecting plate 412 to connect with the foot standing part 2, so that the patients with leg disabilities can be connected as a whole, thereby measuring the amount of visceral fat in their bodies.
[0064] It should be noted that, in this article, relational terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.
[0065] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
