Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of weighing technology, and in particular to a newborn weighing device. Background Technology

[0002] Birth weight is an important indicator of a newborn's health. Both underweight and overweight newborns can have negative effects on their health. In severe cases, it can lead to conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes later in life. Weighing also helps to monitor the newborn's growth and detect any developmental delays early, allowing for timely treatment.

[0003] Currently, most clinical measurements of infant weight are taken using electronic tray scales. Electronic tray scales consist of a scale body and a tray. The infant is placed on the tray, and the weight data is obtained by reading the scale body.

[0004] However, existing weighing devices have relatively limited functions, therefore, a multifunctional newborn weighing device is needed. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention provides a newborn weighing device that can conveniently measure weight and height.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application provides the following technical solution:

[0007] The newborn weighing device includes a base and a weighing platform on the base. The weighing platform includes a weighing platform body and a weight sensor located on the weighing platform body. The top surface of the weighing platform body also has a groove, in which a heating mechanism is installed. The two sides of the groove along its length have sliding grooves, and the groove is covered with a glass panel. The sliding grooves are located on the glass panel. The device also includes a measuring ruler, with its two ends slidably connected to the sliding grooves. The measuring ruler can slide along the length of the groove. The glass panel is also engraved with length values ​​along the length of the groove.

[0008] It also includes a control module, which is used to receive control commands and turn the heating mechanism on or off according to the control commands.

[0009] The basic principles and beneficial effects of the scheme are as follows:

[0010] In this solution, a heating mechanism allows for pre-selection of the glass panel's heating time, raising it to a suitable temperature and preventing discomfort to the newborn due to excessively low temperatures. Once the newborn is placed on the glass panel, a weight sensor measures their weight. The newborn's head is aligned with a specified length value, and the measuring ruler is slid until it contacts the sole of the newborn's foot. The measured value is recorded, and the difference between the two values ​​yields the newborn's height, thus completing the height measurement.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a display module installed on the weighing platform body, a control module for acquiring weight signals from weight sensors and converting the weight signals into weight values, and a display module for displaying the weight values.

[0012] Users can directly read the newborn's weight value from the display module.

[0013] Furthermore, it also includes a lifting mechanism and a disinfection gun;

[0014] The lifting mechanism is fixed on the base, and the disinfection gun is fixed on the lifting mechanism. The control module is also used to control the lifting mechanism to rise or fall, so that the disinfection gun is lower than or higher than the top surface of the weighing platform body.

[0015] The control module is also used to control the disinfection gun to spray disinfectant when the disinfection gun is above the top surface of the weighing platform.

[0016] After the newborn's measurement is completed, the glass panel is disinfected with a sterilizing gun. This keeps the glass panel clean and prevents cross-infection between newborns. Compared with the traditional alcohol wiping method, this method simplifies the operation and is more convenient to use.

[0017] Furthermore, the control module is also used to control the disinfection gun to start spraying disinfectant when the disinfection gun is higher than the top surface of the weighing platform body, until the lifting mechanism rises to a preset height, and then control the lifting mechanism to descend. When the disinfection gun is lower than the top surface of the weighing platform body, the control module is used to control the disinfection gun to stop spraying disinfectant.

[0018] During the lifting process, the disinfection gun continuously sprays disinfectant, which can fully cover the glass panel and achieve a good disinfection effect.

[0019] Furthermore, it also includes a data transmission module and a voice module mounted on the base; the data transmission module is used to receive music data, and the control module is used to control the voice module to play music according to the music data.

[0020] When weighing a newborn, soothing music can be played through the voice module to calm the newborn.

[0021] Furthermore, the voice module is also used to collect ambient sounds, and the control module is also used to identify whether there is a newborn crying sound from the ambient sounds. If so, the decibel value of the newborn crying sound is measured, and the duration of spraying disinfectant spray is set according to the decibel value.

[0022] When a newborn cries, the exchange of substances with the outside world is greater, and more aerosols and other substances are produced. For example, the higher the decibel level, the longer the disinfectant spraying time, allowing for more comprehensive disinfection of glass panels.

[0023] Furthermore, the control module is also used to calculate the fluctuation of the weight value and set the duration of spraying disinfectant spray based on the fluctuation of the weight value.

[0024] Fluctuations in weight values ​​may be due to the newborn moving around on the glass panel, increasing the contact area between the newborn and the glass panel. In this case, increasing the duration of the disinfectant spray can provide more comprehensive disinfection of the glass panel. Attached Figure Description

[0025] Figure 1 This is a top view of Embodiment 1 of the newborn weighing device.

[0026] Figure 2 This is a logic block diagram of Embodiment 1 of the newborn weighing device. Detailed Implementation

[0027] The following detailed description illustrates the specific implementation methods:

[0028] The markings in the accompanying drawings of the instruction manual include: 1. Weighing platform body, 2. Glass panel, 3. Measuring ruler, 4. Sterilization gun.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the newborn weighing device of this embodiment includes a base and a weighing platform located on the base. The weighing platform includes a weighing platform body 1 and a weight sensor located on the weighing platform body 1. A groove is also formed on the top surface of the weighing platform body 1, and a heating mechanism is disposed within the groove. Slide grooves are formed on two sides along the length direction of the groove, and a glass panel 2 is also covered on the groove. The slide grooves are located on the glass panel 2. A measuring ruler 3 is also included, with both ends of the measuring ruler 3 slidably connected to the slide grooves. The measuring ruler 3 can slide along the length direction of the groove. Length values ​​are also engraved on the glass panel 2 along the length direction of the groove. In this embodiment, the heating mechanism uses a heating wire, which is evenly covered on the bottom of the glass panel 2.

[0031] A lifting mechanism is also fixed on the base, and a disinfection gun 4 is fixed on the lifting mechanism. In this embodiment, the left end of the weighing platform body 1 has a notch for the disinfection gun 4 to rise or fall. The lifting mechanism adopts an electric telescopic rod, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the base, and the disinfection gun 4 is fixed to the top of the electric telescopic rod. In this embodiment, the disinfection gun 4 is a disinfection spray gun.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a control module, a display module, a data transmission module, and a voice module.

[0033] The control module acquires weight signals from the weight sensor and converts the weight signals into weight values. The display module displays the weight values. In this embodiment, the display module uses an LED display screen, which is located on the side of the weighing platform body 1.

[0034] The control module receives control commands and turns the heating mechanism on or off according to the commands. In this embodiment, the heating temperature is controlled between 31-34℃.

[0035] The control module is also used to control the lifting mechanism to rise or fall, so that the disinfection gun 4 is below or above the top surface of the weighing platform body 1. The control module is also used to control the disinfection gun 4 to spray disinfectant when it is above the top surface of the weighing platform body 1. Specifically, the control module controls the disinfection gun 4 to start spraying disinfectant when it is above the top surface of the weighing platform body 1, until the lifting mechanism rises to a preset height, then controls the lifting mechanism to fall. When the disinfection gun 4 is below the top surface of the weighing platform body 1, the control module controls the disinfection gun 4 to stop spraying disinfectant, completing one disinfection cycle.

[0036] The data transmission module is used to receive music data, and the control module is used to control the voice module to play music based on the music data.

[0037] In this embodiment, the data transmission module uses a USB module to receive music data by inserting a USB flash drive. In other embodiments, a Bluetooth module can also be used to receive music data. The voice module includes a microphone and a speaker to play music through the speaker.

[0038] This embodiment also includes a control panel, which is fixed to the side of the weighing platform body 1. The control panel is equipped with a power switch, a heating switch, a sterilization switch, a play switch, and a volume knob. For example, pressing the heating switch as a control command activates the heating mechanism, starting to heat the glass panel 2.

[0039] Example 2

[0040] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that in this embodiment, the voice module is also used to collect ambient sound, and the control module is also used to identify whether there is a newborn crying sound from the ambient sound. If so, the decibel value of the newborn crying sound is measured. The control module is also used to calculate the fluctuation of the weight value and set the spraying duration of disinfectant spray based on the fluctuation of the weight value and the decibel value. In this embodiment, the correspondence between the decibel value of the crying sound and the spraying duration of disinfectant spray, as well as the correspondence between the fluctuation and the spraying duration of disinfectant spray, are preset. When both conditions are met, the longer of the two durations is used as the final spraying duration of disinfectant spray. The fluctuation value of the weight value is the difference between the maximum weight value and the stable weight value (i.e., the newborn's weight). In this embodiment, the spraying duration of disinfectant spray is controlled by controlling the speed of the lifting mechanism. That is, the slower the speed of the lifting mechanism, the longer it takes to rise to the preset height and then descend until the disinfection gun 4 is below the top surface of the weighing platform body 1, and the longer the spraying duration of disinfectant spray.

[0041] Example 3

[0042] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 2 is that this embodiment also includes a communication module and an image acquisition module.

[0043] An image acquisition module is positioned below the glass panel 2 and is used to capture images of the glass panel 2. In this embodiment, the image acquisition module is a camera.

[0044] The communication module is used to receive power-on information. In this embodiment, the power-on information is sent to the communication module via a smartphone. The communication module can be a Bluetooth module or a WiFi module.

[0045] The control module is also used to acquire images and determine whether there are objects on the glass panel 2. If not, it controls the heating mechanism to start based on the power-on information. The control module is also used to control the lifting mechanism to rise, completing one sterilization cycle. Remote operation is possible, allowing sterilization and heating to be performed before weighing newborns, reducing waiting time. When there are objects on the glass panel 2, the sterilization process cannot be achieved due to the obstruction of the objects, therefore detection is required.

[0046] The control module is also used to analyze the duration of water mist disappearance on glass panel 2 after each disinfection cycle, based on image clarity, to determine if the duration is less than a threshold. If it is, an alarm message is generated, and the control module also controls the voice module to play the alarm message. When the disinfectant spray adheres to glass panel 2, it creates a misting effect, causing the glass panel 2 to change from transparent to frosted glass, making the image captured by the image acquisition module unclear. Under constant room temperature and a constant amount of disinfectant spray, the duration of water mist disappearance on glass panel 2 is related to the temperature of glass panel 2; the higher the temperature, the faster the water mist disappears. The threshold can be set by collecting the duration of water mist disappearance at the current room temperature and at a glass panel 2 temperature of 31-34℃. If the duration is less than the threshold, it indicates that the current temperature of glass panel 2 is too high, the temperature control has failed, and an alarm message is generated to promptly alert relevant personnel and prevent scalding of newborns.
