Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical equipment use methods, and in particular to a charging and data transmission method for a wearable medical monitoring terminal. Background Art

[0002] At present, there are more and more wearable health and medical monitoring terminals, and their design must be slim, compact, portable and easy to use. As the use time of wearable health and medical monitoring terminals (such as dynamic electrocardiogram recorders) becomes longer and longer, the stored data is also getting larger and larger. The data collected and recorded for one or several days can reach hundreds of megabytes to several gigabytes. During the use of the medical monitoring terminal, the collected and recorded human health data must be transmitted to the cloud server at regular intervals to ensure that the medical monitoring terminal has sufficient memory to store the data. The current medical monitoring terminal is generally connected to the USB interface of the computer, so that the data of the medical monitoring terminal can be transmitted to the cloud server through the computer, and the computer can also charge the medical monitoring terminal. In this way, the data transmission time and charging time of the medical monitoring terminal do not match each other during the operation process, so that it often occurs during use that it takes a long time to fully charge after the data transmission in the medical monitoring terminal is completed, or it takes a long time for the medical monitoring terminal to complete the internal data transmission after it is fully charged, which makes the medical monitoring terminal inconvenient to use. Summary of the invention

[0003] The object of the present invention is to provide a charging and data transmission method for a wearable medical monitoring terminal, which has the advantages that the medical monitoring terminal can match the charging time with the data transmission time and is easy to use.

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention is implemented as follows: a charging and data transmission method for a wearable medical monitoring terminal, in particular, comprising a medical monitoring terminal and a charging base; a host and a terminal Bluetooth communication module are arranged in the medical monitoring terminal, a terminal serial port contact and a terminal charging contact are arranged on the surface of the medical monitoring terminal, and the terminal Bluetooth communication module, the terminal serial port contact and the terminal charging contact are all electrically connected to the host; a base Bluetooth communication module, a WIFI transmission module and an MCU module are arranged in the charging base, a base serial port contact and a base charging contact are arranged on the surface of the charging base, and the base Bluetooth communication module, the WIFI transmission module, the base serial port contact and the base charging contact are all electrically connected to the MCU module; when the medical monitoring terminal is to perform data transmission, the following steps are included:

[0005] S1: placing the medical monitoring terminal on the charging cradle, and causing the terminal serial port contacts on the medical monitoring terminal to contact with the base serial port contacts on the charging cradle to form a serial port transmission channel, and the terminal charging contacts on the medical monitoring terminal and the base charging contacts on the charging cradle to contact and conduct;

[0006] S2: After a serial port transmission channel is formed between the medical monitoring terminal and the charging base, the terminal Bluetooth communication module in the medical monitoring terminal automatically starts to perform data matching and connection with the base Bluetooth communication module on the charging base through the serial port transmission channel without manual matching;

[0007] S3: The medical monitoring terminal transmits its stored data volume M1 and remaining power M2 to the MCU module of the charging station via the serial port transmission channel. The data in the medical monitoring terminal is human health data; the MCU module of the charging station obtains the transmission speed V1 for data transmission using Bluetooth communication according to the Bluetooth communication protocol; the MCU module of the charging station obtains the data transmission time H1 required for the medical monitoring terminal to transmit all data according to the stored data volume M1 and the transmission speed V1, and the MCU module of the charging station adjusts the charging power of the charging station according to the data transmission time H1 and the remaining power M2, so that after the data transmission is completed, the medical monitoring terminal is also charged within the shortest time difference, and then the charging station transmits the received data to the cloud server through the WIFI transmission module.

[0008] Furthermore, before the medical monitoring terminal transmits data, there is a step for setting up a charging base. The external mobile terminal is connected to the charging base through Bluetooth. The mobile terminal controls the charging base to connect to the WIFI network through Bluetooth communication, and sets the cloud server address when the charging base performs WIFI communication through the WIFI transmission module.

[0009] Furthermore, in step S2, when the terminal Bluetooth communication module in the medical monitoring terminal cannot match the base Bluetooth communication module on the charging stand, in step S3, the medical monitoring terminal transmits the data to the MCU module of the charging stand through the serial port transmission channel; the MCU module of the charging stand obtains the transmission speed V2 for data transmission using the serial port transmission channel according to the serial port communication protocol, and the MCU module of the charging stand obtains the data transmission time H2 required for the medical monitoring terminal to transmit all the data according to the stored data volume M1 and the transmission speed V2, and the MCU module of the charging stand adjusts the charging power of the charging stand according to the data transmission time H2 and the remaining power M2, so that after the data transmission is completed, the medical monitoring terminal also completes charging within the shortest time difference, and then the charging stand transmits the received data to the cloud server through the WIFI transmission module.

[0010] Furthermore, an SD card holder electrically connected to the MCU module is provided on the charging base. When an SD card is inserted into the SD card holder, the data transmission channel between the charging base and the medical monitoring terminal is automatically disconnected. The MCU module of the charging base directly reads the data of the SD card in the SD card holder and transmits the data to the cloud server through the WIFI transmission module.

[0011] Furthermore, the charging base is provided with a USB socket electrically connected to the MCU module. When an external device is connected to the USB socket, the data transmission channel between the charging base and the medical monitoring terminal is automatically disconnected. The MCU module of the charging base directly reads the data in the external device and transmits the data to the cloud server through the WIFI transmission module.

[0012] Furthermore, the MCU module of the charging station is a microprocessor of model ESP32-S3.

[0013] Beneficial effects of the present invention: The present invention coordinates the data transmission time of the medical monitoring terminal with the time required for charging, so that after the data transmission is completed, the medical monitoring terminal is also charged within the shortest time difference, which can shorten the user's waiting time as much as possible and is more convenient to use; and the design of the charging stand that can adjust the charging power through the MCU module can also protect the battery of the medical monitoring terminal and increase the service life of the medical monitoring terminal; in addition, the Bluetooth matching between the medical monitoring terminal and the charging stand does not require manual control, and the operation is very simple, which is very suitable for use by the elderly; and the medical monitoring terminal and the charging stand use Bluetooth for data transmission. During use, even if the medical monitoring terminal is separated from the charging stand, as long as the distance between the medical monitoring terminal and the charging stand is still within the Bluetooth communication distance, the data transmission process of the medical monitoring terminal will not be interrupted.

[0017] A charging and data transmission method for a wearable medical monitoring terminal of this embodiment includes a medical monitoring terminal and a charging seat 1; a host and a terminal Bluetooth communication module are provided in the medical monitoring terminal, and a terminal serial port contact and a terminal charging contact are provided on the surface of the medical monitoring terminal. The terminal Bluetooth communication module, the terminal serial port contact and the terminal charging contact are all electrically connected to the host (the medical monitoring terminal is not shown in the drawings); Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a base Bluetooth communication module, a WIFI transmission module and an MCU module 11 are provided in the charging base 1 (the base Bluetooth communication module and the WIFI transmission module are not shown in the drawings), and a base serial port contact 12 and a base charging contact 13 are provided on the surface of the charging base 1. The base Bluetooth communication module, the WIFI transmission module, the base serial port contact 12 and the base charging contact 13 are all electrically connected to the MCU module 11; when the medical monitoring terminal needs to perform data transmission, the following steps are included:

[0018] S1: Place the medical monitoring terminal on the charging base 1, and make the terminal serial port contact on the medical monitoring terminal contact with the base serial port contact 12 on the charging base 1 to form a serial port transmission channel, and the terminal charging contact on the medical monitoring terminal is in contact with the base charging contact 13 on the charging base 1;

[0019] S2: After the serial port transmission channel is formed between the medical monitoring terminal and the charging base 1, the terminal Bluetooth communication module in the medical monitoring terminal automatically starts to match the data with the base Bluetooth communication module on the charging base 1 through the serial port transmission channel without manual matching. The terminal Bluetooth communication module in the medical monitoring terminal needs to be automatically started after the serial port transmission channel is formed, so as to avoid the terminal Bluetooth communication module being started during the process of collecting human health data and affecting the use of the medical monitoring terminal;

[0020] S3: The medical monitoring terminal transmits its stored data volume M1 and remaining power M2 to the MCU module 11 of the charging station 1 via the serial port transmission channel. The data in the medical monitoring terminal is human health data; the MCU module 11 of the charging station 1 obtains the transmission speed V1 for data transmission using Bluetooth communication according to the Bluetooth communication protocol; the MCU module 11 of the charging station 1 obtains the data transmission time H1 required for the medical monitoring terminal to transmit all data according to the stored data volume M1 and the transmission speed V1, and the data transmission time H1 = stored data volume M1 ÷ transmission speed V1. The MCU module 11 of the charging station 1 adjusts the charging power of the charging station 1 according to the data transmission time H1 and the remaining power M2, so that after the data transmission is completed, the medical monitoring terminal is also charged within the shortest time difference, and then the charging station 1 transmits the received data to the cloud server through the WIFI transmission module.

[0021] The charging stand 1 of the charging and data transmission method for the wearable medical monitoring terminal can be roughly divided into three states during operation, namely, a fast charging state, a standard charging state, and a slow charging state. The power of each charging state of the charging stand 1 is a specific power range, not a specific power. The MCU module 11 of the charging stand 1 selects a power within a charging state as the charging power according to the time H1 required for data transmission and the remaining power M2. Accordingly, the charging and data transmission method for the wearable medical monitoring terminal is roughly divided into the following three situations in the process of the medical monitoring terminal using Bluetooth communication to transmit data to the charging stand 1:

[0022] The first is: the time H1 required for data transmission of the medical monitoring terminal is short, and the remaining power M2 is also small; for example: when the time H1 required for data transmission of the medical monitoring terminal is 10 minutes, and the remaining power M2 is 10%, since the medical monitoring terminal needs to charge more power, and the time required for data transmission is short, in this case the MCU module 11 of the charging base 1 adjusts the charging power of the charging base 1 according to the time H1 required for data transmission and the remaining power M2, so that the charging power is as large as possible, so that the charging base 1 forms a fast charging state, so that after the data transmission in the medical monitoring terminal is completed, the medical monitoring terminal is also charged within the shortest time difference; in this state, if the medical monitoring terminal needs 30 minutes to charge after the data transmission in the medical monitoring terminal is completed, then 30 minutes is the shortest time difference for the medical monitoring terminal to complete the charging after the data transmission of the medical monitoring terminal is completed.

[0023] The second is: when the time required for the medical monitoring terminal to be fully charged using the standard charging state is similar to the time required to complete the data transmission using Bluetooth communication; for example: when the time required for the medical monitoring terminal to transmit data H1 is 30 minutes and the remaining power M2 is 50%, since the time required for the medical monitoring terminal to be fully charged using the standard charging state is similar to the time required for data transmission, in this case, the MCU module 11 of the charging seat 1 adjusts the charging power of the charging seat 1 according to the time required for data transmission H1 and the remaining power M2, so that the charging seat 1 is in the standard charging state, so that after the data transmission in the medical monitoring terminal is completed, the charging process of the medical monitoring terminal will also be completed. In this state, if the medical monitoring terminal needs 20 seconds to complete the charging after the data transmission in the medical monitoring terminal is completed, then 20 seconds is the shortest time difference for the medical monitoring terminal to complete the charging after the data transmission of the medical monitoring terminal is completed.

[0024] The third situation is: the time H1 required for data transmission of the medical monitoring terminal is relatively long, and the remaining power M2 is also relatively large; for example: when the time H1 required for data transmission of the medical monitoring terminal is 60 minutes, and the remaining power M2 is 90%, since the medical monitoring terminal needs to charge less power, but the time required for data transmission is relatively long, in this case, the MCU module 11 of the charging seat 1 adjusts the charging power of the charging seat 1 according to the time H1 required for data transmission and the remaining power M2, so that the charging power is as small as possible, and the charging seat 1 is in a slow charging state, so that after the data transmission in the medical monitoring terminal is completed, the medical monitoring terminal is also charged in the shortest time difference to protect the battery in the medical monitoring terminal. In this state, the medical monitoring terminal generally completes its internal data transmission after charging is completed. For example, if the medical monitoring terminal needs 3 minutes to transmit the data after charging is completed, then 3 minutes is the shortest time difference between the medical monitoring terminal and the medical monitoring terminal after the data transmission is completed.

[0025] In order to make the charging and data transmission method for the wearable medical monitoring terminal more reasonable, there is a step of setting up the charging stand 1 before the medical monitoring terminal performs data transmission, and the external mobile terminal is connected to the charging stand 1 by Bluetooth, and the mobile terminal controls the charging stand 1 to connect to the WIFI network through Bluetooth communication, and sets the cloud server address when the charging stand 1 performs WIFI communication through the WIFI transmission module. The external mobile terminal generally refers to a mobile phone. After the charging stand 1 is set up by the external mobile terminal, after step S1 is performed, the Bluetooth communication between the mobile terminal and the charging stand 1 is automatically disconnected.

[0026] Further, in step S2, when the terminal Bluetooth communication module in the medical monitoring terminal cannot match the base Bluetooth communication module on the charging stand 1, in step S3, the medical monitoring terminal transmits data to the MCU module 11 of the charging stand 1 through the serial port transmission channel; the MCU module 11 of the charging stand 1 obtains the transmission speed V2 of the data transmission through the serial port transmission channel according to the serial port communication protocol, and the MCU module 11 of the charging stand 1 obtains the data transmission time H2 required for the medical monitoring terminal to transmit all data according to the stored data volume M1 and the transmission speed V2, and the data transmission time H2 = stored data volume M1 / transmission speed V2, and the MCU module 11 of the charging stand 1 adjusts the charging power of the charging stand 1 according to the data transmission time H2 and the remaining power M2, so that after the data transmission is completed, the medical monitoring terminal also completes charging within the shortest time difference, and then the charging stand 1 transmits the received data to the cloud server through the WIFI transmission module. The speed at which the medical monitoring terminal transmits data to the charging stand 1 through the serial port transmission channel is slower than when Bluetooth communication is used for data transmission. The charging and data transmission method for the wearable medical monitoring terminal can be roughly divided into three cases in the process of the medical monitoring terminal using a serial port transmission channel to transmit data to the charging base 1. The three cases are similar to the three cases in which the medical monitoring terminal uses Bluetooth communication to transmit data to the charging base 1, and no detailed description is needed here.

[0027] Furthermore, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, an SD card holder 14 electrically connected to the MCU module 11 is also provided on the charging base 1. When an SD card is inserted into the SD card holder 14, the data transmission channel between the charging base 1 and the medical monitoring terminal is automatically disconnected (the data transmission channel includes a serial port transmission channel and a Bluetooth transmission channel). The MCU module 11 of the charging base 1 directly reads the data of the SD card in the SD card holder 14, and transmits the data to the cloud server through the WIFI transmission module.

[0028] Furthermore, if Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, a USB socket 15 electrically connected to the MCU module 11 is also provided on the charging seat 1. When the USB socket 15 is connected to an external device (the external device can be a medical monitoring terminal and a USB flash drive), the data transmission channel between the charging seat 1 and the medical monitoring terminal is automatically disconnected, and the MCU module 11 of the charging seat 1 directly reads the data in the external device and transmits the data to the cloud server through the WIFI transmission module. It should be noted that when the USB socket 15 is connected to an external device and an SD card is also inserted in the SD card holder 14, the MCU module 11 of the charging seat 1 will only read the data in the SD card and transmit the data to the cloud server, and will not transmit the data in the external device. By adopting the design of the SD card holder 14 and the USB socket 15, the charging and data transmission method for the wearable medical monitoring terminal can meet the use needs of different styles of medical monitoring terminals for data transmission, and has a wide range of uses.

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the charging base 1 is also provided with a base USB serial port contact 16, the base serial port contact 12, the base charging contact 13 and the base USB serial port contact 16 all include two guide posts, and the medical monitoring terminal is provided with a terminal USB serial port contact. When the medical monitoring terminal is placed on the charging base 1, the base USB serial port contact 16 of the charging base 1 and the terminal USB serial port contact of the medical monitoring terminal are in contact and connected to form a USB serial port channel. When the external device inserted into the USB socket 15 is a storage device such as a U disk, the medical monitoring terminal can be controlled to transfer its internal data to the U disk through the USB serial port channel for storage.

[0030] Furthermore, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the MCU module 11 of the charging station 1 is a microprocessor of model ESP32-S3.
