[0033] The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The present invention is not limited to this embodiment, and other embodiments may also fall within the scope of the present invention as long as they conform to the gist of the present invention.

[0034] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, based on the above problems existing in the prior art, a charging and discharging test system for a handheld ultrasonic device is provided. Figure 1 As shown, including:

[0035] A charge and discharge test device 1, wherein a plurality of virtual wireless access points 2 are pre-configured in the charge and discharge test device 1;

[0036] Multiple handheld ultrasound devices 3, each handheld ultrasound device 3 establishes a wireless connection with a virtual wireless access point one by one. When each handheld ultrasound device 3 performs a charge and discharge test, the ultrasound image obtained by scanning is sent to the charge and discharge test device 1 through the corresponding virtual wireless access point 2, realizing one-to-many simultaneous testing.

[0037] Specifically, when the handheld ultrasonic device 3 performs the charge and discharge test, especially the discharge test, it needs to be in the working state and transmit the ultrasonic image obtained by scanning during the working process to the charge and discharge test device 1 in real time, so as to monitor the stability of its performance during the discharge test in the charge and discharge test device 1. The existing charge and discharge test method is that one device tests one handheld ultrasonic device. There are 10 sets of charge and discharge test equipment in a production workshop. One charge and discharge test takes 5 hours. According to the 8-hour work system, only 10 handheld ultrasonic devices can be charged and discharged in one day. The test efficiency is extremely low and it is not suitable for mass production.

[0038] Based on this, in this embodiment, by pre-configuring multiple virtual wireless access points 2 in the charge and discharge test device 1, each virtual wireless access point 2 can establish a wireless connection with a handheld ultrasound device 3, thereby realizing that as long as there is a virtual wireless access point 2 that is not in use, the handheld ultrasound device 3 produced can be charged and discharged at any time. Taking the example of a full charge after two hours of discharge as one round of charge and discharge test, and each handheld ultrasound device undergoes two rounds of charge and discharge tests, this embodiment is used to perform charge and discharge tests, and the handheld ultrasound devices produced within 3 hours after the operator goes to work can all be charged and discharged. The test can be completed on the same day, and the handheld ultrasound devices produced in the next 5 hours can also complete the charge and discharge test at the latest on the next day, which greatly improves production efficiency. It can be seen that the present invention helps to improve the efficiency of the production process of handheld ultrasound devices and reduce production costs, and is of great significance to their wide application.

[0039] More specifically, the charging and discharging test steps of the handheld ultrasound device 3 are as follows:

[0040] After the handheld ultrasound device 3 is turned on, its own wifi signal is connected to the virtual wireless access point 2, and then the handheld ultrasound device starts to work and transmits the ultrasound image to the corresponding virtual wireless access point 2. After the handheld ultrasound device 3 works continuously for 2 hours, the handheld ultrasound device 3 is charged, and a full charge is a round of charge and discharge test. After two rounds of charge and discharge, proceed to the next step.

[0041] The handheld ultrasound device 3 after the charge and discharge test is subjected to a performance test to verify the influence of charge and discharge on the performance of the handheld ultrasound device.

[0042] It can be seen that the charge and discharge test system of the present invention has the following advantages:

[0043] 1) Low time cost: During the production process, there is no need to wait for the previous batch of products to complete the charge and discharge test before starting the test. No matter how many handheld ultrasound devices are produced, the charge and discharge test can be started at any time.

[0044] 2) Low test equipment cost: The wifi signal of existing handheld ultrasound equipment can only be connected to one ultrasound imaging software carrier (computer, iPad or mobile phone), and the carrier can only be connected to one handheld ultrasound equipment. If mass production is carried out, it will be necessary to purchase dozens of sets of charging and discharging test equipment, which greatly increases the production cost. Only one set of charging and discharging test equipment is needed to use the charging and discharging test system of the present invention. The handheld ultrasound equipment's own wifi signal is connected to the virtual wireless access point, which replaces the ultrasound imaging software carrier, reducing the number of test equipment. Only one set of equipment needs to be used to test the performance of the handheld ultrasound equipment after the charging and discharging test is completed.

[0054] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the handheld ultrasound device 3 is provided with a sound prompter for giving a sound prompt when the handheld ultrasound device 3 successfully establishes a wireless connection with the corresponding virtual wireless access point 2 .

[0055] Specifically, in this embodiment, the above-mentioned sound prompter is a buzzer, which is arranged at the high-voltage switch position of the ultrasound probe of the handheld ultrasound device 3. The buzzer emits continuous beeps to indicate that the ultrasound probe starts working, the wifi connection is normal, and the ultrasound image transmission is normal.

[0059] Step S2, the handheld ultrasound device starts to scan the ultrasound image, and sends the ultrasound image to the charge and discharge test device in real time through the virtual wireless access point to monitor the discharge process;

[0060] Step S3, after the discharge process continues for a preset time, the handheld ultrasound device is fully charged, and then steps S2 and S3 are repeated once to complete the charge and discharge test of the handheld ultrasound device.

[0061] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, before executing step S1, a virtual wireless access point creation process is also included, such as Figure 3 As shown, including:
