[0014] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this invention patent will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this invention patent. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this invention patent, rather than all of them. Based on the embodiments of this invention patent, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of this invention patent. Please refer to Figures 1 - 2 : Embodiment I. Device Overview This embodiment provides a head fixing device for neonatal cranial ultrasound examination, which is mainly used to ensure the stable movement of the neonate's head during neonatal cranial ultrasound examination, so as to facilitate doctors to perform accurate examinations. The device realizes effective fixation of the neonate's head through the design of double head stabilizing parts and an elastic clamping component.

[0015] II. Specific Structure Head Stabilizer: There are two groups of head stabilizers 1, and each group is designed as an arc structure suitable for the contour of the newborn's head to increase the contact area and comfort.

[0016] The two groups of head stabilizers 1 are arranged oppositely to form a structure similar to a clip for clamping the head of the newborn.

[0017] The inner side of the head stabilizer 1 is made of a soft material such as sponge or medical silicone to avoid pressing or discomfort to the newborn's head.

[0018] Elastic Clamping Assembly: The elastic clamping assembly includes an adjustment base 3 and a double-threaded rod 5.

[0019] The adjustment base 3 is a rectangular or circular flat plate structure for supporting and connecting other components.

[0020] The double-threaded rod 5 is rotatably connected inside the adjustment base 3, and the thread directions at both ends are opposite to achieve synchronous reverse movement.

[0021] Rotating Handle: One end of the double-threaded rod 5 penetrates through one side of the adjustment base 3 and is fixedly connected to a rotating handle 9.

[0022] The rotating handle 9 is designed as a round or oval shape that is easy to hold, facilitating doctors or operators to rotate to adjust the clamping force.

[0023] Connecting Support Rod: A sliding fit groove 4 is provided at the top of the adjustment base 3 for slidably connecting the connecting support rod 2.

[0024] There are two groups of connecting support rods 2, which are respectively fixedly connected to the bottoms of the two groups of head stabilizers 1.

[0025] The connecting support rod 2 is designed as a slender rod structure with a certain rigidity and strength to support the head stabilizer 1.

[0026] Fitting Hole: A fitting hole 6 is provided on the connecting support rod 2 for the adjustment base 3 to pass through.

[0027] The diameter of the fitting hole 6 is larger than the outer diameter of the adjustment base 3 to ensure that the connecting support rod 2 can slide smoothly in the sliding fit groove 4.

[0028] Moving Slider and Spring: Moving sliders 8 are threadedly connected to both ends of the double-threaded rod 5 with opposite thread directions.

[0029] The moving slider 8 is designed as a slider structure that matches the sliding fit groove 4 and is used to slide within the sliding fit groove 4.

[0030] The moving slider 8 and the mating hole 6 are connected by a spring 7. The spring 7 plays an elastic clamping role, enabling the head stabilizer 1 to adaptively adjust the clamping force according to the head sizes of different newborns.

[0031] III. Usage Method Place the two sets of head stabilizers 1 on both sides of the newborn's head respectively.

[0032] Adjust the position of the adjustment base 3 so that the mating hole 6 on the connecting support rod 2 aligns with the sliding fit groove 4.

[0033] Rotate the rotating handle 9 to rotate the double threaded rod 5, thereby driving the moving slider 8 to slide within the sliding fit groove 4.

[0034] Due to the action of the spring 7, the moving slider 8 pushes the connecting support rod 2 and the head stabilizer 1 closer to the newborn's head until the appropriate clamping force is achieved.

[0035] During cranial ultrasound examination, keep the device stable to ensure the accuracy of the examination.

[0036] IV. Advantages Through the design of the double head stabilizers and the elastic clamping assembly, this device effectively fixes the newborn's head and improves the accuracy of the examination.

[0037] The head stabilizer is made of a soft material, avoiding compression or discomfort to the newborn's head.

[0038] The elastic clamping assembly can adaptively adjust the clamping force through the action of the spring and is applicable to newborn heads of different sizes.

[0039] The design of the rotating handle facilitates the operation of doctors or operators and improves the convenience of use.
