Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of vital sign measurement devices, and particularly relates to vital sign measurement devices and monitoring equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Vital signs are indicators used to assess the severity and critical level of a patient's condition. These include parameters such as electrocardiogram (ECG), body temperature, blood oxygen saturation, and respiratory rate. They are essential for maintaining normal bodily functions, and any abnormality in any of these parameters can indicate a serious or fatal illness. Vital sign measurement devices allow for real-time monitoring of a patient's ECG, body temperature, blood oxygen saturation, and other physiological signals. This helps medical staff understand the patient's health status, promptly identify abnormalities, and implement appropriate treatment measures, thereby improving treatment effectiveness and safety.

[0003] Vital signs measurement devices typically consist of a main unit and measurement probes. The main unit has connection ports; by connecting the measurement probes to lead wires and inserting the lead wires into the corresponding connection ports, the parameters collected by the measurement probes can be transmitted to the main unit, allowing the main unit to analyze and display the collected parameters. However, in existing vital signs measurement devices, because multiple lead wires are required to connect multiple different measurement probes, the lead wires may become tangled, making connection and organization of the lead wires inconvenient. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a vital signs measurement device and monitoring equipment, which aims to solve the problems of how to simultaneously detect multiple vital signs of a user and how to improve the convenience of lead wire management.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows:

[0006] In a first aspect, a vital signs measurement device is provided, comprising a main unit, an adapter connected to the main unit, and a data acquisition structure connected to the adapter. The data acquisition structure includes multiple lead wires and multiple data acquisition devices. Each lead wire is connected to a data acquisition device, and each lead wire is connected to the adapter. Each data acquisition device is used to collect different vital signs parameters of a human body. The vital signs parameters collected by the data acquisition devices are transmitted to the main unit via the lead wires and the adapter. The main unit is used to analyze and display the vital signs parameters.

[0007] In some embodiments, the adapter includes an adapter base and a plug, the plug and the lead wire are respectively connected to the two ends of the adapter base, the plug and the lead wire are electrically connected, the host is provided with a data interface, and the plug is plugged into the data interface to transmit the vital signs parameters to the host.

[0008] In some embodiments, the adapter further includes a sealing ring fitted onto the plug and having elastic restoring force. One end of the sealing ring is connected to the adapter base, and the other end of the sealing ring abuts against the host. The sealing ring surrounds the edge of the data interface, and the inner diameter of the sealing ring gradually increases along the direction from the adapter base toward the host. The sealing ring has an inner wall surface surrounding the preset axial direction. The sealing ring is in a compressed state and can elastically deform along the preset axial direction to make the inner wall surface fit tightly against the host.

[0009] In some embodiments, the inner diameter growth rate of the sealing ring gradually increases along the direction from the adapter to the host.

[0010] In some embodiments, the sealing ring is connected to a connecting ring at the end opposite to the data interface, the adapter is provided with a limiting wall at the end facing the host, the limiting wall is spaced apart from the plug, and the connecting ring is sleeved on the plug and sandwiched between the limiting wall and the plug.

[0011] In some embodiments, the vital signs measuring device further includes a wearable component for hanging around the neck of a person, the wearable component being arc-shaped and forming a receiving space for accommodating the neck of a person, and the main unit being connected to one end of the wearable component.

[0012] In some embodiments, the wearable device includes a conductive core and a protective shell covering the conductive core. The protective shell is made of an insulating material. The vital signs measuring device also includes a power supply device, which is electrically connected to both ends of the conductive core and the host device, respectively. The power supply device is used to supply power to the host device.

[0013] In some embodiments, the power supply device has a plug-in cavity, and a connector is connected to the end of the conductive core facing away from the host. The connector is used to plug into the plug-in cavity. The vital signs measuring device further includes a locking structure disposed in the plug-in cavity and slidably connected to the power supply device. The locking structure has a locked position and an unlocked position. When the locking structure is in the locked position, the locking structure restricts the movement of the connector along the plugging direction of the connector. When the locking structure is in the unlocked position, the locking structure releases the restriction on the connector.

[0014] In some embodiments, the acquisition device is a blood oxygen probe, a body temperature probe, or an electrocardiogram electrode, and at least two of the acquisition devices are different.

[0015] Secondly, a monitoring device is provided, including the aforementioned vital signs measurement device.

[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, 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 a part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them.

[0037] Please see Figures 1 to 13 This application provides a vital signs measurement device, including a host 10, an adapter 20 connected to the host 10, and a data acquisition structure 30 connected to the adapter 20. The data acquisition structure 30 includes multiple lead wires 32 and multiple data acquisition elements 31. Each lead wire 32 is connected to each data acquisition element 31, and each lead wire 32 is connected to the adapter 20. Each data acquisition element 31 is used to collect different vital signs parameters of the human body. The vital signs parameters collected by the data acquisition elements 31 are transmitted to the host 10 via the lead wires 32 and the adapter 20. The host 10 is used to analyze and display the vital signs parameters.

[0038] Understandably, the acquisition device 31 is used to adhere to the human body surface to collect vital sign parameters, including electrocardiogram, body temperature, blood oxygen saturation, and respiratory rate. Abnormalities in these parameters usually indicate serious illness. The lead wire 32 serves as a data transmission line, enabling communication between the host 10 and the acquisition device 31. The lead wire 32 transmits the vital sign parameters collected by the acquisition device 31 to the adapter 20, and then through the adapter 20 to the host 10. The host 10 is used to analyze and display the vital sign parameters.

[0039] Specifically, the acquisition device 31 may include various types of sensors, such as ECG electrodes 311, blood oxygen probes, body temperature probes, etc. The acquisition device 31 can directly contact the patient and collect physiological signals. For example, ECG electrodes 311 detect cardiac activity, blood oxygen probes measure blood oxygen saturation through light signals, and body temperature probes may be thermocouples or thermistors to measure temperature.

[0040] The main unit 10 is the core processing unit of the vital signs measurement device. It receives data from the acquisition unit 31 and performs further processing and analysis, such as calculating heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, body temperature, or analyzing blood pressure waveforms. The main unit 10 can also display real-time waveforms and values ​​and provides an alarm function, issuing an alert when an abnormality is detected. Furthermore, the main unit 10 has data transmission capabilities, transmitting data to the hospital information system or electronic medical records.

[0041] The vital signs measurement device provided in this application, by connecting the adapter 20 to the host 10, can transmit the vital signs parameters collected by each acquisition unit 31 to the host 10 through each lead wire 32 and the adapter 20, and the host 10 can analyze and display the vital signs parameters in real time, realizing the simultaneous detection of multiple vital signs of the user; and by connecting multiple lead wires 32 centrally to the adapter 20, the lead wires 32 can be arranged in a centralized manner, which can effectively avoid the lead wires 32 from being tangled together and affecting the connection of the lead wires 32, and improve the convenience of lead wire arrangement.

[0042] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the adapter 20 includes an adapter base 21 and a plug 22. The plug 22 and the lead wire 32 are respectively connected to the two ends of the adapter base 21. The plug 22 and the lead wire 32 are electrically connected. The host 10 is provided with a data interface 11. The plug 22 is plugged into the data interface 11 to transmit vital signs parameters to the host 10.

[0043] Understandably, in the prior art, the host 10 is equipped with numerous interfaces for connecting the various lead wires 32. This results in a complex structure and a large footprint for the host 10. However, the vital signs measurement device of this embodiment connects multiple lead wires 32 to the adapter 20, and connects the adapter 20 to the data interface 11 via a plug 22. Therefore, the host 10 only needs one data interface 11, which facilitates the miniaturization of the vital signs measurement device. Furthermore, the centralized connection of multiple lead wires 32 to one end of the adapter 21 further improves the convenience of arranging and organizing the lead wires 32.

[0044] In some embodiments, the acquisition element 31 is a pulse oximeter, a body temperature probe, or an electrocardiogram (ECG) electrode 311, and at least two acquisition elements 31 are different, enabling simultaneous detection of multiple vital signs of the user on a single device, simplifying operation. Optionally, the acquisition element 31 may include a pulse oximeter, a body temperature probe, and an ECG electrode 311, meaning that the pulse oximeter, body temperature probe, and ECG electrode 311 are all connected to the adapter 20 via lead wires 32. In some embodiments, the pulse oximeter can be clipped to the ear, attaching the pulse oximeter to the user. Compared to clipping the user's fingers in the prior art, this allows the connection to remain constant while the user is making hand movements, thus preventing monitoring interruptions during use.

[0045] In addition, such as Figure 1 As shown, multiple ECG electrodes 311 can be set, and each ECG electrode 311 is connected to the adapter 20 via multiple lead wires 32. The ECG electrodes 311 are used to connect to the human body surface to collect the human body's electrocardiogram parameters and respiratory rate. By setting multiple ECG electrodes 311, multiple ECG electrodes 311 can be connected to different positions on the human body surface, thus adapting to situations where different parts of the human body are at different distances from the instrument. This achieves portable placement of ECG electrodes while reducing the complexity of the wiring and space occupation, simplifying the wiring process.

[0046] In some embodiments, such as Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the adapter 20 also includes a sealing ring 23 that is sleeved on the plug 22 and has elastic restoring force. One end of the sealing ring 23 is connected to the adapter 21, and the other end of the sealing ring 23 abuts against the host 10. The sealing ring 23 surrounds the edge of the data interface 11. The inner diameter of the sealing ring 23 gradually increases along the direction from the adapter 21 toward the host 10. The sealing ring 23 has an inner wall surface 231 that surrounds a preset axis a. The sealing ring 23 is in a compressed state and the sealing ring 23 can generate elastic deformation along the preset axis a so that the inner wall surface 231 is in close contact with the host 10.

[0047] In this embodiment, the sealing ring 23 is arranged around a predetermined axial direction a, that is, the sealing ring 23 is a ring-shaped structure. The sealing ring 23 surrounds the edge of the data interface 11, so that the sealing ring 23 can completely surround the data interface 11, thereby achieving sealing in all directions. Optionally, the sealing ring 23 is not limited to a circular shape. In addition, the shape of the sealing ring 23 is adapted to the shape of the data interface 11. That is, if the shape of the data interface 11 is circular, the sealing ring 23 is correspondingly set as a circular structure, thereby further improving the sealing effect.

[0048] The sealing ring 23 has an elastic restoring force, and the inner wall surface 231 of the sealing ring 23 abuts against the surface of the host 10 where the data interface 11 is located. When the inner wall surface 231 abuts against the host 10, the sealing ring 23 is in a compressed state. Therefore, the sealing ring 23 can generate elastic deformation along the preset axial direction a. In this way, the sealing ring 23 can press the inner wall surface 231 tightly against the host 10 under the action of the elastic restoring force.

[0049] In addition, such as Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the inner diameter of the sealing ring 23 gradually increases along the direction from the adapter 21 towards the main unit 10. That is, in its natural state, the sealing ring 23 is trumpet-shaped or umbrella-shaped. The inner diameter of the opening formed by the end of the sealing ring 23 near the main unit 10 is larger, while the inner diameter of the opening formed by the end of the sealing ring 23 away from the main unit 10 is smaller. During the docking process between the main unit 10 and the adapter 20, the main unit 10 and the sealing ring 23 gradually come into contact, and the sealing ring 23 gradually compresses. The end of the sealing ring 23 near the main unit 10 first abuts against the surface of the main unit 10. With further docking, the other end of the sealing ring 23 also approaches the main unit 10 until it is fully fitted. During this process, the end of the sealing ring 23 near the host 10 is continuously squeezed and tightly abuts against the surface of the host 10. Since the inner diameter of the sealing ring 23 gradually increases along the direction of the adapter 21 towards the host 10, when the sealing ring 23 is squeezed, it can guide the end of the sealing ring 23 near the host 10 to extend away from the preset axis a, instead of extending towards the preset axis a and entering the data interface 11. That is, when the sealing ring 23 is squeezed, it is in a state of expanding in all directions, thereby ensuring that the inner wall surface 231 can finally fit with the surface of the host 10 where the data interface 11 is opened, and improving the sealing effect of the sealing structure.

[0050] In some embodiments, the inner diameter growth rate of the sealing ring 23 gradually increases along the direction from the adapter 21 to the host 10. Understandably, the gradual increase in the inner diameter growth rate of the sealing ring 23 along the direction from the adapter 21 to the host 10 means that the closer it is to the host 10, the closer the inner wall surface 231 is to the surface of the host 10 where the data interface 11 is located. This makes the process of the inner wall surface 231 gradually fitting into the host 10 smoother, and the end of the inner wall surface 231 closer to the host 10 is more likely to move away from the preset axial direction a, thereby further ensuring the sealing effect of the sealing ring 23. Furthermore, the inner cavity of the sealing ring 23 has a continuous transition surface along the direction from the adapter 21 to the host 10, that is, the inner cavity of the sealing ring 23 forms an exponential or involute flared profile.

[0051] Of course, in other possible implementations, the inner wall surface 231 can also be a plane, that is, the inner diameter of the sealing ring 23 gradually increases linearly along the direction from the adapter 21 to the host 10. The specific shape of the inner wall surface 231 is not uniquely limited in this application embodiment. As long as the two ends of the inner wall surface 231 are offset from each other along the preset axis a on the host 10, and the end of the inner wall surface 231 away from the connecting ring 24 can extend outward when the sealing ring 23 is squeezed.

[0052] In some embodiments, the sealing ring 23 is connected to a connecting ring 24 at one end away from the data interface 11, and the adapter 21 is provided with a limiting wall 25 at one end facing the host 10. The limiting wall 25 is spaced apart from the plug 22, and the connecting ring 24 is sleeved on the plug 22 and the connecting ring 24 is sandwiched between the limiting wall 25 and the plug 22.

[0053] The connecting ring 24 is sleeved on the plug 22. The plug 22 can position the sealing ring 23 during installation. The connecting ring 24 is sandwiched between the limiting wall 25 and the plug 22, which can limit the position of the connecting ring 24 and make the position of the connecting ring 24 stable. Even if the sealing ring 23 is squeezed, the position of the connecting ring 24 will not shift, thereby further ensuring the stability of the seal.

[0054] In some embodiments, the limiting wall 25 is an annular structure, surrounding the plug 22, thereby limiting the connecting ring 24 from multiple directions and further improving the stability of the connecting ring 24's position. Additionally, by fitting the connecting ring 24 onto the plug 22, the sealing ring 23 can be easily disassembled and replaced, thus improving maintenance convenience.

[0055] In addition, the shape of the connecting ring 24 is adapted to the shape of the sealing ring 23. That is, if the sealing ring 23 is circular, the connecting ring 24 is set to a circular structure accordingly, which can improve the aesthetics.

[0056] The connecting ring 24 may or may not have elastic deformation force. When the connecting ring 24 has elastic deformation force, it may be made of materials such as rubber or silicone. When the connecting ring 24 does not have elasticity, it may be made of materials such as rigid plastic, metal, or ceramic.

[0057] In some embodiments, the sealing ring 23 and the connecting ring 24 are integrally molded, which can improve the stability of the connection between the sealing ring 23 and the connecting ring 24, thereby improving the structural strength of the sealing ring 23. This ensures that the position and working state of the sealing ring 23 remain stable even when compressed, thus improving the sealing effect of the sealing ring 23. Optionally, the sealing ring 23 and the connecting ring 24 can be integrally injection molded. Of course, in other possible embodiments, the sealing ring 23 and the connecting ring 24 can also be separate structures, facilitating disassembly and replacement of the sealing ring 23 and the connecting ring 24 and improving maintenance convenience. Optionally, when the sealing ring 23 and the connecting ring 24 are separate structures, they can be connected by methods such as fixed connection, bonding, or heat fusion connection.

[0058] In some embodiments, the sealing ring 23 is a flexible component, meaning it is made of a flexible material. Optionally, the sealing ring 23 can be a silicone or rubber component, etc. Alternatively, the sealing ring 23 and the connecting ring 24 can be integrally formed as a flexible component, simplifying the molding process.

[0059] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the adapter 21 has a resilient arm 26 on its peripheral wall. The host 10 includes a housing 12 and a plug hole 13 opened in the housing 12. The plug hole 13 corresponds to and is spaced apart from the data interface 11. The adapter 21 is configured to be inserted into the plug hole 13. During the process of inserting the adapter 21 into the plug hole 13, the resilient arm 26 is in a compressed state. As the adapter 21 is inserted, when the adapter 21 reaches the predetermined position, the resilient arm 26 engages with the edge of the plug hole 13 under the action of elastic restoring force, thereby locking the host 10 and the adapter 21.

[0060] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the vital signs measuring device also includes a wearable component 70 for hanging on the neck of a human body. The wearable component 70 is arc-shaped and surrounds a receiving space 200 for accommodating the neck of a human body. The main unit 10 is connected to one end of the wearable component 70.

[0061] Understandably, the wearable component 70 in this embodiment is a non-closed ring structure. The opposite ends of the wearable component 70 are brought together to form an opening, through which the user can hang the wearable component 70 around their neck. Furthermore, the contour shape of the wearable component 70 can be adapted to the shape of the human neck, so that when the wearable component 70 is hung around the user's neck, it can fit as closely as possible to the neck, thereby making the wear of the wearable component 70 more secure and improving the wearing comfort of the wearable component 70.

[0062] This embodiment of the application sets up a wearable component 70 to enable the main unit 10 to be worn on the patient's body. During use, when the patient moves or turns over, the main unit 10 can also move along with the data acquisition component 31, thus ensuring an effective communication connection between the data acquisition component 31 and the main unit 10. Furthermore, in this embodiment of the application, the wearable component 70 can be worn around the user's neck by hanging, thereby enabling the main unit 10 to be quickly attached to the user, improving the wearing efficiency of the main unit 10 and thus enhancing the user experience.

[0063] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the wearable device 70 includes a conductive core 71 and a cover 72 covering the conductive core 71. The cover 72 is made of insulating material. The vital signs measuring device also includes a power supply device 40. The power supply device 40 and the main unit 10 are electrically connected to the two ends of the conductive core 71, respectively. The power supply device 40 is used to supply power to the main unit 10.

[0064] Understandably, the conductive core 71 is made of conductive material and can conduct electricity, while the outer shell 72 is made of insulating material. By providing the outer shell 72, the user can be prevented from directly contacting the conductive core 71, thereby improving safety.

[0065] The power supply device 40 provides the host 10 with the power required for operation, ensuring that the vital signs measurement device can still operate normally in scenarios involving movement, emergency rescue, or power outages. Optionally, the power supply device 40 can be a battery or a power adapter, etc.

[0066] In addition, by connecting the power supply device 40 and the main unit 10 to the two ends of the conductive core 71 respectively, the weight of the two ends of the wearable device 70 can be made to be nearly balanced. When the wearable device 70 is worn around the neck, the wearable device 70 will not slip to one side and detach from the user's neck, thereby further improving the stability of the wearable device 70.

[0067] In some embodiments, the outer shell 72 is made of a flexible material and can be bent by external force to adjust the size of the accommodating space 200. Understandably, the outer shell 72 is made of a flexible material, thus possessing a certain degree of elasticity. Therefore, after being shaped, the outer shell 72 will have a certain degree of resilience, meaning the user can grasp both ends of the wearable device 70 and pry it open, facilitating the hanging of the wearable device 70 around the neck. The outer shell 72 will automatically rebound when the user releases the force, ensuring the wearable device 70 is stably attached to the user's neck and preventing it from falling towards the back of the neck, thereby ensuring the stability of the wearable device 70. Furthermore, because the outer shell 72 is elastic, the user can hold both ends of the wearable component 70 and apply force to adjust the distance between the two ends of the wearable component 70, thereby adjusting the size of the receiving space 200 formed by the wearable component 70. For example, when the wearable component 70 fits the neck tightly, the user can hold both ends of the wearable component 70 and apply force in opposite directions to increase the distance between the two ends of the wearable component 70 and thus increase the receiving space 200; when the wearable component 70 fits the neck loosely and causes instability, the user can hold both ends of the wearable component 70 and apply force in the direction of convergence to decrease the distance between the two ends of the wearable component 70 and thus reduce the receiving space 200, making the wear more secure.

[0068] Optionally, the outer shell 72 is made of a thermoplastic elastomer, which is a type of polymer material that combines the elasticity of rubber and the plasticity of plastic, and can be molded by thermoplastic processing methods such as injection molding and extrusion. Specifically, the material of the outer shell 72 is a styrene-based thermoplastic elastomer, a polyester-type polyurethane elastomer, a polybutylene terephthalate-based elastomer, or a transparent polyamide elastomer, etc. The specific material of the outer shell 72 is not uniquely limited in the embodiments of this application.

[0069] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the power supply device 40 has a plug-in cavity 41, and a connector 50 is connected to the end of the conductive core 71 facing away from the host 10. The connector 50 is used to plug into the plug-in cavity 41. The vital signs measuring device also includes a locking structure 80 disposed in the plug-in cavity 41 and slidably connected to the power supply device 40. The locking structure 80 has a locked position 300 and an unlocked position 400. When the locking structure 80 is in the locked position 300, the locking structure 80 restricts the movement of the connector 50 along the plugging direction b of the connector 50. When the locking structure 80 is in the unlocked position 400, the locking structure 80 releases the restriction on the connector 50.

[0070] In actual use, the connector 50 is inserted into the insertion cavity 41, and the locking structure 80 switches between the locked position 300 and the unlocked position 400, thereby achieving the purpose of locking and unlocking the connector 50 and the power supply equipment 40. When the locking structure 80 is in the locked position 300, the locking structure 80 restricts the movement of the connector 50 along the insertion direction b of the connector 50, thereby improving the reliability of the connection between the power supply equipment 40 and the connector 50.

[0071] In some embodiments, such as Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the locking structure 80 includes a sliding part 81 slidably connected to the power supply device 40 and a latching part 82 connected to the sliding part 81. When the locking structure 80 is in the locked position 300, the latching part 82 latches the connector 50 and restricts the movement of the connector 50 along the insertion direction b of the connector 50; when the locking structure 80 is in the unlocked position 400, the latching part 82 releases its latching from the connector 50. Power is transmitted to the latching part 82 by sliding through the sliding part 81, resulting in high transmission efficiency.

[0072] In this embodiment, both the sliding part 81 and the snap-fit ​​part 82 are made of plastic material and can be injection molded. It is understood that the sliding part 81 and the snap-fit ​​part 82 can be integrally injection molded, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the sliding part 81 and the snap-fit ​​part 82, and thus improving the structural strength of the locking structure 80.

[0073] In some embodiments, such as Figure 10 As shown, the connector 50 is provided with a first locking wall 51 and a second locking wall 52. The first locking wall 51 and the second locking wall 52 are spaced apart along the insertion direction b of the connector 50. When the locking structure 80 is in the locked position 300, the locking part 82 is clamped between the first locking wall 51 and the second locking wall 52. It can be understood that since the first locking wall 51 and the second locking wall 52 are spaced apart along the insertion direction b of the connector 50, when the locking part 82 is clamped between the first locking wall 51 and the second locking wall 52, the first locking wall 51 and the second locking wall 52 respectively abut against the locking part 82 in the insertion direction b and in the opposite direction to the insertion direction b. Therefore, the connector 50 cannot continue to be inserted into the depth direction of the insertion cavity 41, nor can it be withdrawn from the insertion cavity 41, thereby improving the stability of the locking. Furthermore, when the locking part 82 moves from the locked position 300 to the unlocked position 400, the resistance it encounters is small, thereby improving the unlocking efficiency and unlocking reliability.

[0074] Optionally, the sliding direction of the latching portion 82 is perpendicular to the insertion direction b of the connector 50, thereby improving the reliability of the connection between the power supply device 40 and the connector 50. Understandably, both the first latching wall 51 and the second latching wall 52 extend along the sliding direction of the latching portion 82, that is, both the first latching wall 51 and the second latching wall 52 are perpendicular to the insertion direction b of the connector 50.

[0075] In some embodiments, the first locking wall 51 and the second locking wall 52 are arranged sequentially along the insertion direction b of the connector 50, and the length of the first locking wall 51 is greater than the length of the second locking wall 52. During the process of the connector 50 being gradually inserted into the insertion cavity 41, the locking part 82 is always located in the moving path of the first locking wall 51. Therefore, when the first locking wall 51 contacts the locking part 82, the locking part 82 blocks the first locking wall 51. At this time, the locking part 82 begins to move towards the locking position 300, that is, the first locking wall 51 can position the insertion depth of the connector 50, so that there is no need to adjust the position and then lock it, which can effectively improve the locking efficiency.

[0076] In some embodiments, the connector 50 is further provided with a stop wall 54, which is connected to the first snap-fit ​​wall 51 and extends along the insertion direction b of the connector 50, that is, the stop wall 54 and the first snap-fit ​​wall 51 are perpendicular to each other, and the stop wall 54 and the second snap-fit ​​wall 52 are spaced apart, forming a channel between the stop wall 54 and the second snap-fit ​​wall 52 that is just enough for the snap-fit ​​part 82 to pass through. Only when the snap-fit ​​part 82 slides to the position corresponding to the channel can the connector 50 be fully inserted without being blocked, thereby avoiding misinsertion.

[0077] In some embodiments, the connection structure further includes a drive structure 90 connected to the locking structure 80, the drive structure 90 being used to drive the locking structure 80 to slide back and forth between the locked position 300 and the unlocked position 400. Driving the locking structure 80 to slide via the drive structure 90 facilitates user operation of the drive structure 90, thereby improving the convenience of unlocking and locking.

[0078] In some embodiments, the power supply device 40 includes a housing, a plug-in cavity 41 disposed in the housing, and a through hole 441 communicating with the plug-in cavity 41. One end of the drive structure 90 is connected to the sliding part 81, and the other end of the drive structure 90 extends out of the through hole 441. The through hole 441 extends along the sliding direction of the sliding part 81, and the drive structure 90 is slidably connected to the through hole 441 to drive the sliding part 81 to slide. The other end of the drive structure 90 extends out of the through hole 441, thereby making it easier for the user to operate the drive structure 90 to complete the locking and unlocking operations, further improving the convenience of locking and unlocking.

[0079] In some embodiments, the drive structure 90 includes a control key 91 and a fixing member 92. The fixing member 92 passes through the through hole 441, with one end connected to the sliding part 81 and the other end connected to the control key 91. The control key 91 is slidably mounted on the outer wall surface of the housing. Sliding the control key 91 on the outer wall surface of the housing makes it easier for the user to slide the control key 91 with their finger. Additionally, the surface of the control key 91 is provided with raised strips 911, which increases the friction between the control key 91 and the user's finger, further improving the convenience of control. In other possible embodiments, the surface of the control key 91 may also be provided with raised dots or wavy patterns, as long as it increases the friction with the finger.

[0080] Optionally, the fastener 92 and the sliding part 81 are fastened together. Of course, in other possible embodiments, the fastener 92 and the sliding part 81 can also be connected by means of bonding or heat fusion. This application embodiment does not limit the connection method of the fastener 92 and the sliding part 81.

[0081] In some embodiments, such as Figure 11 As shown, the outer casing is provided with a guide groove 442 extending along the sliding direction of the sliding part 81. The sliding part 81 is slidably connected to the guide groove 442, and the shape of the sliding part 81 is adapted to the shape of the guide groove 442. The guide groove 442 can guide the sliding of the sliding part 81, prevent the sliding path from deviating, and improve the smoothness of the sliding.

[0082] In some embodiments, such as Figure 11 As shown, the outer casing has a first stop wall 443 and a second stop wall 444 spaced apart from each other. The sliding part 81 slides between the first stop wall 443 and the second stop wall 444. The first stop wall 443 is used to stop the sliding part 81 when the locking structure 80 slides to the locked position 300, and the second stop wall 444 is used to stop the sliding part 81 when the locking structure 80 slides to the unlocked position 400. By setting the first stop wall 443 and the second stop wall 444, the movement path of the locking structure 80 can be restricted, avoiding excessive sliding of the locking structure 80, thereby improving the reliability of the locking structure 80.

[0083] In some embodiments, the outer casing includes a first housing 43 and a second housing 44 that overlap each other, forming a cavity, and a locking structure 80 is disposed within the cavity. Specifically, a insertion cavity 41 may be disposed in the first housing 43, and a through hole 441 may be disposed in the second housing 44.

[0084] In some embodiments, a circuit board 42 is disposed within the insertion cavity 41, and an electrical connector 53 is disposed at one end of the connector 50 extending into the insertion cavity 41, the electrical connector 53 being electrically connected to the circuit board 42. Specifically, the housing includes a surrounding wall 431 that forms the insertion cavity 41, the surrounding wall 431 being connected to the first housing 43, one end of the surrounding wall 431 forming an opening for insertion of the connector 50, and the other end of the surrounding wall 431 being connected to the circuit board 42, and the circuit board 42 communicating with the insertion cavity 41. Therefore, when the connector 50 is located within the insertion cavity 41, the electrical connector 53 can be electrically connected to the circuit board 42. In addition, the surrounding wall 431 is provided with a clearance opening 432 to allow the latching portion 82 to slide within the insertion cavity 41.

[0085] Optionally, electrical connector 53 is a blade connector. Blade connectors typically consist of one or more metal blades used to connect electrical signals and power. The metal blades of a blade connector are responsible for transmitting current and signals. The shape and material of the metal blades directly affect the performance of the blade connector. Metal blades are typically made of copper or alloy materials, possessing good conductivity and mechanical strength. The metal blades typically mate with corresponding slots. The angle, depth, and shape of the slots are designed to fit the metal blades to ensure good contact. When a blade connector contains multiple metal blades, it can transmit multiple signals or currents simultaneously, making it widely used in complex circuits.

[0086] Blade connectors enable high-density connections, allowing multiple connections to be implemented in a limited space, making them suitable for the compact design of modern electronic devices. They are also easy to plug and unplug, facilitating replacement and maintenance. Blade connectors also offer excellent contact performance; the metal blade design provides superior electrical contact, reducing signal loss and interference. Furthermore, the materials used in blade connectors generally have high wear resistance and oxidation resistance, enabling them to function normally even in harsh environments. In addition, compared to other connectors, blade connectors have relatively low manufacturing costs, making them cost-effective and suitable for mass production.

[0087] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the vital signs measurement device also includes a blood pressure monitor 33, which is electrically connected to the main unit 10 and the power supply device 40. The power supply device 40 is used to supply power to the blood pressure monitor 33. Understandably, the physiological parameters collected by the blood pressure monitor 33 are different from those collected by the acquisition device 31. The physiological parameters collected by the blood pressure monitor 33 can be parameters that do not require continuous collection, such as blood pressure. Through the power supply device 40, the power required for the blood pressure monitor 33 to work can be provided, ensuring that the vital signs measurement device can still operate normally in mobile, emergency, or power outage scenarios.

[0088] In some embodiments, both the conductive core 71 and the blood pressure monitor 33 are electrically connected to the connector 50. Since the blood pressure monitor 33 is also electrically connected to the connector 50, it can also be electrically connected to the circuit board 42. This allows the blood pressure monitor 33 to be indirectly electrically connected to the host 10 via the circuit board 42. The blood pressure monitor 33 can first transmit the collected physiological parameters to the circuit board 42, and then the circuit board 42 can transmit the physiological parameters collected by the blood pressure monitor 33 to the host 10 via the connector 50 and the conductive core 71. This makes the connection between the blood pressure monitor 33 and the host 10 more flexible, and the arrangement of the blood pressure monitor 33 more flexible, making it suitable for different usage scenarios.

[0089] In some embodiments, the blood pressure monitor 33 is detachably connected to the connector 50. Since the blood pressure data collected by the blood pressure monitor 33 is a parameter that does not require continuous collection, but only needs to be collected at intervals, the detachable connection between the blood pressure monitor 33 and the connector 50 facilitates the connection and disconnection of the blood pressure monitor 33 from the power supply device 40. When the blood pressure monitor 33 is not in use, it can be disconnected from the power supply device 40, thereby storing the blood pressure monitor 33 away.

[0090] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, connector 50 is connected to a first connecting line 61, and blood pressure monitor 33 is connected to a second connecting line 62. The free ends of the first connecting line 61 and the free ends of the second connecting line 62 can be interlocked, thereby realizing a detachable connection between blood pressure monitor 33 and connector 50.

[0091] In addition, such as Figure 1 As shown, the blood pressure monitor 33 is also connected to a cuff 34. The blood pressure monitor 33 and the cuff 34 are connected. The cuff 34 is used to wrap around the upper arm or wrist of the human body. The blood pressure monitor 33 is equipped with an air pump. The air pump inflates the cuff 34 to temporarily block blood flow. The air pump inflates the cuff 34 to the target pressure (such as 180 mmHg), completely compressing the artery and blocking blood flow. Then, the cuff 34 is slowly deflated. The restoration of arterial blood flow causes the pressure inside the cuff 34 to produce small fluctuations (oscillation waves). The blood pressure monitor 33 continuously records the pressure oscillation signal inside the cuff 34.

[0092] This application also proposes a monitoring device, which includes a vital signs measuring device. The specific structure of the vital signs measuring device is as described in the above embodiments. Since this monitoring device adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it also has all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.

[0093] In summary, the vital signs measurement device provided in this application, by connecting the adapter 20 to the host 10, can transmit the vital signs parameters collected by each acquisition unit 31 to the host 10 through each lead wire 32 and the adapter 20, and the host 10 can analyze and display the vital signs parameters in real time, realizing the simultaneous detection of multiple vital signs of the user; and by centrally connecting multiple lead wires 32 to the adapter 20, the lead wires 32 can be centrally arranged, which can effectively avoid the lead wires 32 from being tangled together and affecting the connection of the lead wires 32, and improve the convenience of the lead wires 32 arrangement.

[0094] The above are merely optional embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the scope of the claims of this application.
