DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 When the lifting column 3 is lifted up, the lifting plate 6 is lifted and lowered, and the lifting column 3 ...

[0030] A groove 51 is formed on the surface of the end of the locating pin 5, and a bead 53 is arranged inside the groove 51. A spring 52 is connected between the bead 53 and the bottom of the groove 51. One end of the bead 53 protrudes out of the notch of the groove 51, and one end of the bead 53 abuts against the rear end of the bottom cylinder 2. When the locating pin 5 is pulled out from the through hole and the positioning hole 4, the inner wall of the rear through hole will squeeze the bead 53, so that the bead 53 moves into the groove 51 to squeeze the spring 52. When the locating pin 5 is inserted into the through hole and the positioning hole 4 in the same horizontal line, the bead 53 will be squeezed by the inner wall of the through hole and the positioning hole 4 until it moves into the groove 51. In this way, after the locating pin 5 passes through the through hole at the rear, the bead 53 will be ejected by the spring 52 to be located at the rear of the bottom cylinder 2, thereby preventing the locating pin 5 from automatically moving out of the through hole.

[0031] A rubber pad 7 is connected to the upper end of the support plate 6 by screws, and a pair of handles 8 are symmetrically rotatably connected to the left and right ends of the support plate 6. A rotating shaft 12 is fixed to the front and rear ends of the handle 8. A circle of inner cavity 10 is arranged around the inside of the support plate 6, and the end of the rotating shaft 12 is movable and penetrates into the inner cavity 10. A first gear 16 is fixed to the rear end of the rotating shaft 12 at the right rear, and a shaft rod 17 is connected to the right rear side bearing inside the inner cavity 10. A connecting rod mechanism is installed between the rear end of the shaft rod 17 and the rear end of the rotating shaft 12 at the left rear. The first gear 16 is located on the right side of the connecting rod mechanism and is meshed with the connecting rod mechanism. The connecting rod mechanism includes a second gear 18, a connecting rod 19, and a turntable 20. The second gear 18 is fixed to the rear end of the shaft rod 17, and the second gear 18 is meshed with the first gear 16. The turntable 20 is fixed to the rear end of the rotating shaft 12 at the left rear, and the diameter of the second gear 18 is equal to the diameter of the turntable 20. The connecting rod 19 is rotatably connected to the lower part of the rear end of the second gear 18 and the lower part of the rear end of the turntable 20 When the patient rotates the handle 8 on the right side, the rotating shaft 12 of the handle 8 will be driven to rotate, and then the rotating shaft 12 at the right rear portion will drive the first gear 16 to rotate. As the first gear 16 is meshed with the second gear 18, the second gear 18 will drive the right end of the connecting rod 19 to be located outside the second gear 18 and perform circular motion. The right end of the connecting rod 19 is connected to the second gear 18 through an axis rotation, and the left end of the connecting rod 19 drives the turntable 20 to rotate synchronously. The left end of the connecting rod 19 is connected to the turntable 20 through an axis rotation, so that the second gear 18 and the turntable 20 will rotate synchronously in the same direction, but the rotation direction of the turntable 20 is opposite to that of the first gear 16. Therefore, the turntable 20 drives the rotating shaft 12 at the left rear portion to rotate. At this time, the left handle 8 and the right handle 8 rotate at the same time, but the rotation directions of the two handles 8 are opposite. In this way, when the handle 8 needs to be rotated, only one of them needs to be rotated to make the other handle 8 rotate synchronously.

[0032] A rotary encoder 13 is fixedly installed at the right front of the inner cavity 10, and the input shaft of the rotary encoder 13 is fixed to the front end of the right front rotating shaft 12. A lithium battery 11 and a controller 14 are installed at the front of the inner cavity 10. A third gear 21 is fixed to the outside of the left front rotating shaft 12. A self-locking mechanism 22 is meshed on the right side of the third gear 21. A pressure sensor 15 is embedded in the middle of the upper end of the support plate 6. The rotary encoder 13 and the pressure sensor 15 are both connected to the controller 14 signal. The controller 14 is connected to the self-locking mechanism 22. The self-locking mechanism 22 includes a sleeve 221, a reset spring 222, a slide plate 223, a guide block 225, an electromagnet 226, a tooth block 227, and a slide rod 228. The sleeve 221 is fixed to the inner wall of the inner cavity 10, and the slide plate 223 is slidably connected Inside the sleeve 221, the slide bar 228 is fixed to the left end of the slide plate 223, the left part of the slide bar 228 extends out of the sleeve 221 and is fixed to the tooth block 227, the tooth block 227 is meshed with the third gear 21, the return spring 222 is located on the outside of the slide bar 228, the return spring 222 is connected between the left part of the slide plate 223 and the left end of the inner wall of the sleeve 221, the front end of the sleeve 221 is provided with a guide groove 224, the guide block 225 is slidably connected inside the guide groove 224, the rear part of the guide block 225 is fixed to the front of the slide plate 223, the electromagnet 226 is fixedly installed on the left side of the front end of the sleeve 221, the guide block 225 is located on the right side of the electromagnet 226, the guide block 225 is made of iron, the front end of the support plate 6 is installed with a USB charging port 9, the USB charging port 9 is connected to the lithium battery 11 through a wire, The lithium battery 11 is electrically connected to the rotary encoder 13, the pressure sensor 15, the electromagnet 226 and the controller 14 respectively. The rotary encoder 13 and the pressure sensor 15 are connected to the electromagnet 226 signal through the controller 14. When it is needed for patient walking support, the handle 8 on the right is rotated counterclockwise by 180 degrees. At this time, through the cooperation of the first gear 16 and the connecting rod mechanism, the two handles 8 will rotate at the same time, but the rotation directions are opposite, so that the two handles 8 will be set upward after rotating by 180 degrees. In this process, the right front shaft 12 will drive the input shaft of the rotary encoder 13 to rotate. When the rotation angle of the rotary encoder 13 is 180 degrees counterclockwise, the rotary encoder 13 transmits a signal to the controller 14, and the controller 14 controls The control electromagnet 226 is energized, and the electromagnet 226 attracts the guide block 225 and moves it left along the guide groove 224. The guide block 225 drives the slide plate 223 to move left and squeezes the return spring 222. The slide plate 223 drives the slide bar 228 to move left, and the slide bar 228 drives the tooth block 227 to move left and mesh with the third gear 21, so that the left front shaft 12 cannot rotate. In this way, the two handles 8 can be locked, making it convenient to hold the handles 8 and lift the support frame for walking. When the patient needs to sit, the middle of the rubber pad 7 is pressed, and the pressure sensor 15 senses that the pressure increase exceeds the threshold value preset in the controller 14. The controller 14 controls the electromagnet 226 to cut off the power. At this time, the return spring 222 pushes the slide plate 223 to reset, and the tooth block 227 moves right and no longer meshes with the third gear 21.After that, the right handle 8 is rotated clockwise by 180 degrees and is directed downward, so that the two handles 8 are arranged vertically downward, and the patient can sit on the rubber mat 7 to rest, thereby achieving multifunctional use.

[0033] Rotary encoders may have certain errors in long-term applications. These errors mainly come from: over time, the mechanical parts of the encoder (such as shafts, bearings, gears, etc.) may wear, which may cause uneven rotation and affect the accuracy of the pulse output.

[0034] Temperature changes can affect the performance of the electronic components inside the encoder, which may cause the output pulse number to be unstable. Therefore, the threshold of the output pulse number corresponding to the rotation angle of the rotary encoder in the application cannot be fixed. In order to ensure that the locking mechanism can be accurately triggered after the handle is rotated in place, the threshold of the output pulse number corresponding to the rotary encoder rotating 180° is dynamically adjusted according to the number of times the rotary encoder is used and the feedback data. The initial threshold is set: based on the specifications of the encoder, the ideal pulse number when rotating 180° is determined, and the ideal pulse number ± the change value (such as 26) is used as the threshold of the output pulse number corresponding to the rotary encoder rotating 180°.

[0035] Record usage count: The initial usage count is 0.

[0036] The usage count is updated after each use.

[0037] Monitor and record the actual output pulse number of the rotary encoder each time it is used.

[0038] Analyze historical data: Count the average number of pulses and standard deviation within a certain period.

[0039] Adjust the threshold value based on statistical results: If the difference between the average pulse number and the ideal pulse number is greater than the threshold value, it indicates that there may be errors caused by wear or other factors, and the threshold value needs to be adjusted.

[0040] The following example circuit illustrates the dynamic threshold adjustment method of the rotary encoder:

[0041] Set the initial threshold:

[0042] Based on the specifications of the rotary encoder, determine the ideal number of pulses for a 180° rotation. Assuming the encoder has a pulse count of 1024 PPR per revolution, the ideal number of pulses for a 180° rotation is 512 pulses (because 180° is half a revolution).

[0043] Record usage times:

[0044] The initial usage count is 0.

[0045] Update the usage count after each use, for example, by recording each time the handle is rotated 180° through the controller. Monitor and record the actual output pulse number of the rotary encoder during each use:

[0046] The actual number of output pulses is recorded in the controller each time the handle is rotated 180°.

[0047] For example, use an interrupt service routine to capture encoder pulses.

[0048] Analyzing historical data:

[0049] Count the average number of pulses and standard deviation within a certain period. For example, after completing 100 rotation operations, calculate the average number of pulses and standard deviation of the most recent 100 rotations.

[0050] Statistical methods (such as mean, standard deviation) were used to evaluate the trend of pulse number changes.

[0051] Adjust the threshold based on the statistical results:

[0052] If the average pulse number deviates from the ideal pulse number by more than a threshold value (eg, 26 pulses), it indicates that there may be errors caused by wear or other factors.

[0053] Adjust the threshold range according to the size of the deviation, for example:

[0054] If the difference between the average pulse number and the ideal pulse number is greater than a threshold value (eg, 26 pulses), or if the average pulse number is lower than the ideal pulse number, the ideal pulse number is reduced.

[0055] If the difference between the average pulse number and the ideal pulse number is greater than a threshold value (eg, 26 pulses), if the average pulse number is higher than the ideal pulse number, the ideal pulse number is increased.

[0056] Special additional explanations for the circuit and function of the controller 14:

[0057] The controller 14 uses a microcontroller unit (MCU), which is a microcomputer system that integrates a processor, a memory, and an input / output interface. It can easily integrate the processing, logical operations, and output control of various sensor signals.

[0065] Pressure sensor signal processing: The analog signal is converted into a digital signal using an amplifier and an ADC (analog-to-digital converter).

[0068] The chip used is LM2596 or TP4056, which regulates the battery voltage, powers the MCU and sensors, and charges the lithium battery 11.

[0069] Communication interface is needed to communicate with other devices or perform firmware upgrades, and a communication interface can be added. Use UART or USB, UART: for simple serial communication.

[0116] Versatile design: The support frame is equipped with an adjustable height lifting base to accommodate patients of different heights. In addition, the handle of the support frame can be quickly converted from walking mode to sitting mode through simple operation, which greatly facilitates the patient's experience.

[0117] Automatic locking function: When the patient needs to use the support frame to walk, he only needs to rotate the handle 180 degrees.
