The patient's leg circumference is measured and the data is displayed on the circumference meter. After tightening, the barbell slide is released, and the spring releases the squeezing of the fixed plate and the barbell slide, so that the spring releases the elastic force to reset the barbell slide, and the clamping block is re-locked in the clamping groove on the circumference ruler to prevent excessive tightening. The setting of the clamping block makes the patient more comfortable during use and the operation of the medical staff more convenient. At the same time, the circumference ruler can be quickly rolled up, thereby achieving the effect of fast measurement. The resistance plate drives the long rod to slide outward, and the tooth block of the long rod engages with the semi-toothed ring, so that the semi-toothed ring drives the clamping rod to rotate. After the clamping rod moves to the top, the clamping rod releases the restriction of the restriction groove, so that the barbell slide can be used normally. Through such a limit operation, it is ensured that the circumference ruler will not be rolled up when not in use, avoiding equipment damage caused by misoperation, thereby improving the reliability of the equipment and user experience.
