Detailed implementation manners

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0032] Embodiment 1

[0033] The present invention provides a medical MR device data transmission amplifier, as Figures 1 to 9 shown, including: the lower layer 1 of the radio frequency amplifier, the lower layer 1 of the radio frequency amplifier is the power supply, rollers 2 are installed at the four corners of the bottom end of the lower layer 1 of the radio frequency amplifier, two fixed heat dissipation structures 3 are symmetrically and fixedly installed on one end face of the lower layer 1 of the radio frequency amplifier, the upper layer 4 of the radio frequency amplifier is hingedly installed on the top edge of the lower layer 1 of the radio frequency amplifier, the upper layer 4 of the radio frequency amplifier is the amplifier, a hidden connection component 6 is installed inside the upper layer 4 of the radio frequency amplifier, and the hidden connection component 6 includes a round rod 61 rotatably connected inside the upper layer 4 of the radio frequency amplifier. Driving gears 62 are symmetrically welded at both ends of the round rod 61. An arc-shaped rack 63 is meshed and connected to the outside of the driving gear 62. The arc-shaped rack 63 is fixedly installed on the top end of the lower layer 1 of the radio frequency amplifier. A plug-in slot 64 is fixedly installed in the middle of the outer surface of the round rod 61, and a plurality of plug-in holes are opened inside the plug-in slot 64.

[0034] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, a slider 65 is slidably connected inside the plug-in slot 64. A positioning strip 69 is integrally formed at one end of the slider 65. A driving gear 66 is rotatably connected to one side of the bottom end of the slider 65. A driven gear 67 is meshed and connected to the outside of the driving gear 66. A fan blade 68 is fixedly installed at the top end of the driven gear 67. The fixed shaft of the fan blade 68 passes through the positioning strip 69 and is fixedly connected to the driven gear 67;

[0035] Manually rotate the driving gear 66. When the driving gear 66 rotates, it drives the driven gear 67 to rotate. When the driven gear 67 rotates, it drives the fan blade 68 to rotate. When the fan blade 68 rotates, it sucks out the dirt inside the insertion slot 64, thus ensuring the cleanliness inside the insertion slot 64 and further facilitating the connection with other electrical components.

[0036] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, a plurality of ventilation holes are provided inside the driving gear 66 based on the center point, and the size of the driving gear 66 is larger than that of the driven gear 67;

[0037] Under the action of the plurality of ventilation holes, it is convenient for gas to be discharged along the inside of the driving gear 66. At the same time, since the size of the driving gear 66 is larger than that of the driven gear 67, the driven gear 67 can rotate quickly, changing the rotation speed of the driven gear 67.

[0038] As Figure 3 and Figure 5 shown, columns 610 are symmetrically embedded and installed on both sides of the insertion slot 64. A round rod 611 is rotatably connected to the outside of the column 610. One end of the column 610 is fixedly installed with a limit cover 612. One side of the inner wall of the limit cover 612 is vertical, and the other side of the inner wall of the limit cover 612 is inclined;

[0039] Under the action of the column 610, it is convenient for the round rod 611 to rotate. When the round rod 611 rotates, it is blocked by the limit cover 612. Since one side of the inner wall of the limit cover 612 is vertical and the other side of the inner wall of the limit cover 612 is inclined, an inclined angle is formed between the round rod 611 and the insertion slot 64 after the round rod 611 rotates, and further a triangular support is formed between the insertion slot 64, the round rod 611 and the top of the lower layer 1 of the radio frequency amplifier, further keeping the upper layer 4 of the radio frequency amplifier stable.

[0040] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, a guide groove is provided inside the insertion slot 64. A guide block is integrally formed at the top of the slider 65, and the guide block is slidably connected inside the guide groove;

[0041] It is convenient for the movement of the slider 65, changes the difficulty of movement of the slider 65, and limits the slider 65 after it moves.

[0042] As Figures 6 to 9 shown, a quick-disassembly maintenance component 5 is installed inside the upper layer 4 of the radio frequency amplifier. The quick-disassembly maintenance component 5 includes a positioning sleeve 51 fixedly installed inside the upper layer 4 of the radio frequency amplifier. A hollow movable rod 52 is vertically movably connected inside the positioning sleeve 51. A filter frame 53 is fixedly installed at the top of the outer surface of the hollow movable rod 52, and a filter screen 54 is fixedly installed inside the filter frame 53;

[0043] By pulling the filter box 53, when the filter box 53 moves, it drives the filter net 54 to move. At this time, the filter box 53 drives the hollow movable rod 52 to move, so that the hollow movable rod 52 moves along the inside of the positioning sleeve 51, so that the position of the upper layer 4 of the RF amplifier corresponding to the filter box 53 is exposed to the outside, which is convenient for personnel to repair the inside along the exposed position of the upper layer 4 of the RF amplifier, changing the existing way of disassembling the shell, and this way is more convenient.

[0044] As Figures 6 to 9 shown, a piston rod 55 is movably connected inside the hollow movable rod 52. A metal net 56 is fixedly installed between one ends of the two piston rods 55. A plurality of conical bodies 57 are fixedly installed at equal intervals at one end of the metal net 56;

[0045] When the hollow movable rod 52 squeezes the inside of the positioning sleeve 51, at this time, the gas pushes the piston rod 55 to move. When the piston rod 55 moves, it drives the metal net 56 to move. When the metal net 56 moves, it drives the conical body 57 to clean the mesh holes of the filter net 54, thereby reducing the cleaning times of the filter net 54 and ensuring that the gas can flow along the inside of the filter net 54.

[0046] As Figures 6 to 9 shown, elastic blocks 58 are equidistantly embedded on the outside of the hollow movable rod 52. A rubber pad 59 is fixedly installed on the outside of the elastic block 58. The outside of the rubber pad 59 is in contact with the inner wall of the positioning sleeve 51;

[0047] Due to the tension of the elastic block 58 driving the rubber pad 59 to move, when the rubber pad 59 moves and fits with the inner wall of the positioning sleeve 51, at this time, the friction force between the hollow movable rod 52 and the positioning sleeve 51 is increased, preventing the phenomenon that the hollow movable rod 52 generates displacement along the inside of the positioning sleeve 51.

[0048] Working principle: During the actual use of the device, the lower layer 1 of the RF amplifier serves as the power supply to ensure that the rollers 2 at the four corners of its bottom end are fixed stably, so that the device can be moved conveniently when needed. At this time, the two fixed heat dissipation structures 3 symmetrically fixed on one end surface of the lower layer 1 of the RF amplifier start to work to provide preliminary heat dissipation preparation for the operation of the device. The upper layer 4 of the RF amplifier is hinged to the lower layer 1 of the RF amplifier through the top edge and is in an initial closed state. At this time, the round rod 61 in the hidden connection component 6 inside the upper layer 4 of the RF amplifier remains stationary, the driving gear 62 and the arc-shaped rack 63 are in an initial meshing state, the slider 65 inside the insertion slot 64 is in the initial position, and the fan blade 68 remains stationary;

[0049] Next, the lower layer 1 of the RF amplifier serves as a power supply and starts to provide stable power support for the entire device. At this time, the fixed heat dissipation structure 3 continues to operate to ensure that the heat dissipation requirements during the operation of the device are met. At the same time, the upper layer 4 of the RF amplifier, as an amplifier, starts to amplify the data signals generated by the CT device. During this process, the round rod 61 in the hidden connection component 6 remains stationary to ensure the connection stability inside the insertion slot 64;

[0050] When the RF amplification signal fluctuates, external electronic components need to be connected at this time to keep the signal constant. At this time, the operator rotates the upper layer 4 of the RF amplifier, and at the same time, the upper layer 4 of the RF amplifier drives the round rod 61 to move. When the driving gear 62 at one end of the round rod 61 meshes with the arc rack 63, the driving gear 62 rotates. When the driving gear 62 rotates, it drives the insertion slot 64 to rotate. Then, the columns 610 symmetrically embedded and installed on both sides of the insertion slot 64 play a supporting role. The round rod 611 rotatably connected to the outside of the column 610 maintains an inclined angle with the insertion slot 64 under the limiting action of the limiting cover 612 to form a triangular support, further making the upper layer 4 of the RF amplifier stable. By designing the connection method of the external electronic components, this device solves the problem that existing RF amplifiers usually adopt an integrated design, have fixed functions, and are difficult to expand functions according to user needs. Filtering functions or modulation and demodulation functions can be added as needed without replacing the entire device, improving the flexibility and adaptability of the device;

[0051] Then, when the inside of the insertion slot 64 needs to be cleaned after using this structure, at this time, the slider 65 is moved. When the slider 65 moves to the insertion hole position of the insertion slot 64, the operator manually rotates the driving gear 66. When the driving gear 66 rotates, it drives the driven gear 67 to rotate quickly. When the driven gear 67 rotates, it drives the fan blade 68 to rotate. When the fan blade 68 rotates, it sucks out the dirt inside the insertion slot 64, thus ensuring the cleanliness of the inside of the insertion slot 64, further facilitating the connection with other electrical components, effectively solving the interference of dust on the external power supply components, thus facilitating data transmission, and further facilitating the filtering inside the RF amplifier;

[0052] Finally, when the device needs to be maintained, first, the operator pulls the filter frame 53. When the filter frame 53 moves, it drives the filter net 54 to move. At this time, the filter frame 53 drives the hollow movable rod 52 to move, so that the hollow movable rod 52 moves along the inside of the positioning sleeve 51, so that the position of the upper layer 4 of the RF amplifier corresponding to the filter frame 53 is exposed to the outside, thus facilitating the personnel to repair the inside along the exposed position of the upper layer 4 of the RF amplifier, changing the existing method of disassembling the shell, and this method is more convenient;

[0053] During the maintenance process, when the hollow movable rod 52 squeezes the inside of the positioning sleeve 51, the gas pushes the piston rod 55 to move. When the piston rod 55 moves, it drives the metal mesh 56 to move. When the metal mesh 56 moves, it drives the cone 57 to clean the mesh holes of the filter screen 54, thereby reducing the cleaning frequency of the filter screen 54 and ensuring that the gas can flow along the inside of the filter screen 54;

[0054] During the maintenance process, due to the tension of the elastic block 58, the rubber pad 59 is driven to move. When the rubber pad 59 moves, it fits with the inner wall of the positioning sleeve 51. At this time, the friction between the hollow movable rod 52 and the positioning sleeve 51 is increased, preventing the phenomenon that the hollow movable rod 52 generates displacement along the inside of the positioning sleeve 51.

[0055] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than limiting it.
