AI Technical Summary
The existing blood pressure cuff is complicated and inaccurate to adjust when it is tied to the arm, especially for the elderly. It is also difficult to standardize each measurement, resulting in inaccurate results.
A long pocket is sewn or glued to the inner fabric of the sleeve, and a standard rod is fixed in place. The tightness of the sleeve is automatically adjusted by pulling out the standard rod, replacing the need for finger adjustment.
It achieves rapid and accurate blood pressure measurement with ease of operation, reduces the difficulty of operation for the elderly, and ensures that the cuff tightness is consistent with each measurement.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of medical device technology, specifically a method for adjusting the tightness of a blood pressure monitor cuff using a standard bar. Background Technology
[0002] When people measure blood pressure, the tightness of the cuff on the arm directly affects the accuracy of the measurement. A cuff that is too loose will result in a higher reading, while a cuff that is too tight will result in a lower reading. The current procedure for adjusting the cuff involves first securing it to the arm, then inserting one or two fingers to check the tightness. If it's too loose (three or more fingers can be inserted), the cuff needs to be tightened and the Velcro fastener re-secured. If it's too tight (one finger cannot be inserted), the Velcro fastener needs to be slightly loosened. This process is repeated until the correct tightness is achieved. This method of adjusting the cuff by inserting fingers is complex and inaccurate, especially difficult for elderly people. Furthermore, everyone's fingers are different in size, and there is no single, accurate standard. The tightness adjustment might be one finger's width one time, but two fingers' width the next, making it impossible to quickly and accurately adjust the cuff to a consistent tightness for every measurement. This can lead to inaccurate measurement results. To address this, this application proposes a method for adjusting the tightness of the blood pressure cuff using a standard rod instead of a finger. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the problems mentioned above, this invention provides the following technical solution: a method for adjusting the tightness of a blood pressure monitor cuff using a standard bar, comprising a cuff, a standard bar, and a long pocket. The long pocket is sewn and glued to the inner fabric layer of the cuff that is attached to the arm, with the opening of the long pocket facing the long side of the cuff. The standard bar is inserted into the long pocket and fixed to the cuff. After the cuff with the standard bar is tied tightly to the arm, the standard bar is pulled out from the long pocket, and the tightness of the cuff is automatically adjusted to a suitable level, allowing for quick and accurate blood pressure measurement.
[0004] Furthermore, the shape of the standard bar is not limited.
[0005] Furthermore, a fixing clip is installed on the standard rod.
[0006] Furthermore, long pockets are sewn and glued to the inside of the inner fabric.
[0007] Furthermore, long pockets are sewn and glued to the inside of the outer fabric.
[0008] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: when measuring blood pressure, a standard bar is inserted into the long pocket of the cuff, and after the blood pressure cuff with the standard bar is tied tightly to the arm, the standard bar is pulled out from the long pocket. A gap is automatically left between the arm and the cuff, eliminating the need to repeatedly adjust the tightness of the cuff by inserting fingers. It has the advantages of ingenious design, simple operation, low cost, and accurate measurement. Attached Figure Description

[0010] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0011] Depend on Figure 1The present invention includes a cuff 1, a standard rod 2, and a long pocket 3. The long pocket 3 is sewn and glued to the inner fabric 5 of the cuff 1, which is attached to the arm. The opening 4 of the long pocket 3 faces the long side 9 of the cuff 1. The long pocket 3 is made of a long strip of fabric 11 and the inner fabric 5, sewn and glued together. The standard rod 2 is inserted into the long pocket 3 and fixed to the cuff 1. When measuring blood pressure, the cuff 1 with the standard rod 2 is tied to the arm and tightened. Then, the standard rod 2 is pulled out from the long pocket. The tightness of the cuff 1 can be adjusted appropriately. Each time blood pressure is measured, there is a fixed gap between the cuff 1 and the arm left by the standard rod 2 after it is pulled out of the long pocket 3. It is not necessary to repeatedly adjust the tightness between the cuff 1 and the arm by inserting fingers. It can quickly and accurately measure blood pressure. The operation is simple and the effect is obvious.
[0012] like Figure 2 As shown, the shape of the standard rod 2 is not limited. Its length and thickness can be manufactured according to actual needs. It can be made into a round rod, an oval rod, a semi-circular rod, etc., as long as it can be smoothly inserted into the long pocket 3. One end of the standard rod 2 is made sharper to make it easier to insert into the long pocket 3.
[0013] like Figure 3 As shown, a fixing clip 10 is installed on the standard bar 2. When measuring blood pressure, the standard bar 2 is inserted into the long pocket 3, and the clip is clamped on the outside of the inner side 8 of the outer fabric, that is, on the napped surface of the cuff 1, so that the standard bar 2 can be better fixed on the cuff 1.
[0014] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the long pocket 3 is sewn and glued to the inner side 6 of the inner fabric layer, with the pocket opening 4 facing the long side 9 of the sleeve 1. The long pocket 3 is also sewn and glued to the inner side 8 of the outer fabric layer, with the pocket opening 4 facing the long side 9 of the sleeve 1. In other words, the long pocket 3 can be sewn and glued to either side of the inner fabric layer 6 or the outer fabric layer 8 on both sides of the airbag 7 of the sleeve 1. This is the same method of inserting the standard rod 2 into different fabric layers of the sleeve 1.
[0015] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
