For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood by specific circumstances.

[0027] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the utility model provides a lower limb circumference measuring device, including a first main rod 1 and a second main rod 2, the first main rod 1 and the second main rod 2 are hinged, the outer walls of the first main rod 1 and the second main rod 2 are both provided with detection mechanisms, the outer wall of the first main rod 1 is provided with a plug joint 3 on the side close to the second main rod 2, and the outer wall of the second main rod 2 is provided with a fixing mechanism for fixing the plug joint 3; the fixing mechanism includes a through hole 4 opened on one side of the outer wall of the second main rod 2, the through hole 4 is located on one side of the plug joint 3, an installation cavity 5 is opened in the second main rod 2 on one side of the through hole 4, a slidingly connected plug rod 6 is provided in the installation cavity 5, one end of the plug rod 6 extends to the outside of the second main rod 2, and the other end of the plug rod 6 extends to the inside of the through hole 4, and a fixing hole 7 matching the plug rod 6 is provided on the outer wall of the plug joint 3 close to the installation cavity 5.

[0028] Specifically, when the device is in the working state, the first main rod 1 and the second main rod 2 are coaxial, and the two are located on the same straight line. At this time, the detection mechanism can be controlled to perform measurement work on the patient. When the device is in the storage state, the insertion rod 6 is first pulled toward the outside of the second main rod 2, so that one end of the insertion rod 6 moves to the outside of the through hole 4, and the installation cavity 5 guides the insertion rod 6. Then the first main rod 1 and the second main rod 2 are relatively rotated, and the plug connector 3 moves with the first main rod 1, and the through hole 4 moves with the second main rod 2, until the outer wall of the first main rod 1 fits with the outer wall of the second main rod 2. At this time, the plug connector 3 moves to the through hole 4. On the inner side, the fixing hole 7 moves to one side of the insertion rod 6, and then the insertion rod 6 is pushed to move toward the through hole 4, so that one end of the insertion rod 6 moves to the inside of the fixing hole 7, and the relative positions of the first main rod 1 and the second main rod 2 are fixed by the insertion rod 6 and the plug connector 3, and the storage work of the device is completed; the device can fold the first main rod 1 and the second main rod 2, thereby reducing the length of the device, making the device easy to store, ensuring the practicality of the device, and the folded first main rod 1 and the second main rod 2 can increase the pressure resistance, so that the device is not easy to deform due to collision when stored, thereby ensuring the service life of the device.

[0029] like Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment, the outer wall of the insertion rod 6 is provided with a limit plate 17 inside the installation cavity 5, and the limit plate 17 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the installation cavity 5. The outer wall of the insertion rod 6 is provided with a spring 8 inside the installation cavity 5, one end of the spring 8 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the installation cavity 5, and the other end of the spring 8 is fixedly connected to the limit plate 17.

[0030] Specifically, when the insertion rod 6 is pulled to move toward the outside of the second main rod 2, the limit plate 17 moves with the insertion rod 6, and the spring 8 is compressed. When the fixing hole 7 moves to one side of the insertion rod 6, the insertion rod 6 is released at this time, and the spring 8 pushes the limit plate 17 to return to its original position. The installation cavity 5 guides the limit plate 17. At this time, the insertion rod 6 moves toward the through hole 4 to fix the position of the plug connector 3. After the insertion rod 6 is released, the spring 8 can ensure that one end of the insertion rod 6 is located inside the fixing hole 7, thereby preventing the plug connector 3 from detaching, ensuring the stability of the device during operation. At the same time, the resetting effect of the spring 8 ensures the convenience of the staff when operating the insertion rod 6.

[0031] like Figure 1-2 As shown, in one embodiment, the detection mechanism includes two sliders 9, the outer walls of the first main rod 1 and the second main rod 2 are both provided with slide rails 10, the two slide rails 10 are respectively slidably connected to the two sliders 9, a measuring tape 11 is provided on one side of the outer wall of the slider 9, the outer walls of the first main rod 1 and the second main rod 2 are both provided with scale lines 20, and the outer wall of the slider 9 is provided with a pointer 19.

Optionally, a guide surface is provided at the bottom end of the insertion rod 6. When the first main rod 1 and the second main rod 2 are stored and the plug connector 3 moves to the inside of the through hole 4, the arcuate surface 18 plays a guiding role. At this time, one end of the insertion rod 6 is located inside the through hole 4 due to the action of the spring 8. When the plug connector 3 moves to the inside of the through hole 4, the guide surface of the plug connector 3 contacts the arcuate surface 18 of the insertion rod 6, thereby pushing the insertion rod 6 to slide toward the outside of the second main rod 2. When the fixing hole 7 moves to one side of the insertion rod 6, the spring 8 can push the insertion rod 6 to move to the inside of the fixing hole 7. There is no need for medical personnel to control the insertion rod 6, which makes the operation of the device simpler and ensures the convenience of the device.

[0038] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
