Ultrasound examination has the advantages of being safe, non-invasive, painless, and radiation-free. It is also convenient and intuitive, inexpensive, and quick to diagnose. It can continuously and dynamically observe the real-time sections and functions of organs and track lesions in real time. This series of characteristics makes ultrasound examination a front-end for various medical physical examinations. It is widely used and has a great impact. It is a common basic examination method in medical examinations.

[0003] With the advancement of medical care, the increase in hospitalized patients and the progression of aging, many hospitalized patients cannot move freely due to illness or have difficulty in moving due to injuries. As medical equipment advances, portable ultrasound diagnostic equipment has become an item of examination in medical institutions, solving the problem of providing ultrasound examinations for patients who cannot move.

[0004] Portable ultrasound examination equipment is equivalent to a scaled-down ultrasound examination instrument. This equipment can provide routine ultrasound examinations, but due to the mobility of the equipment, it cannot be connected to the ultrasound workstation of the ultrasound department's computer equipment, and cannot collect the ultrasound images being examined in real time, nor can it be uploaded to the ultrasound workstation after the examination. Therefore, the report form of the portable ultrasound examination project at the bedside does not contain ultrasound images, and the ultrasound images examined are not saved. Doctors cannot query previous examinations and cannot provide image evidence for potential medical disputes. Doctors need to bring convenient ultrasound examination equipment to the department computer to enter the examination report and diagnosis after the examination, which leads to delays in reporting and diagnosis, increases the doctor's workload, and wastes time. It is also possible that the doctor's handwritten records during the examination are not detailed, resulting in omissions in the report or missed diagnosis, which is inefficient.

[0020] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Reference Figure 1-4 As shown,

[0022] A portable ultrasonic image acquisition device comprises an acquisition terminal, a communication module, a printing terminal 1, and a display terminal. The display terminal is connected to the acquisition terminal via the communication module and is used to obtain and display ultrasonic image data acquired by the acquisition terminal. The printing terminal 1 is connected to the display terminal and is used to print out the image currently displayed on the display terminal. The printing terminal 1 is also provided with a voice input module, which is used for an operator to input voice information and convert it into text for printing.

[0023] This solution uses a voice input module for voice recognition. Doctors can use a handheld printing terminal 1 to input voice, and the voice recognition is converted into text for temporary storage. The acquisition terminal performs on-site ultrasound acquisition to obtain ultrasound image data. The current acquisition terminal cannot print images, and it is difficult to keep evidence. It needs to be connected to the host computer to achieve image printing. This solution can transmit ultrasound image data to the printing terminal 1 for printing after on-site acquisition, and print the text converted from the voice input at the same time. Two sheets of paper can be printed, which can improve the current doctor's report recording efficiency. At the same time, the collected images can be printed for evidence and reduce medical disputes. The communication module can use a Bluetooth module to associate the printing terminal 1 with the acquisition terminal to provide a transmission method for ultrasound image data.

[0024] In addition, in order to better associate and store the images and texts, a stapling mechanism 2 is provided on the printing terminal 1, and the ultrasonic images and texts printed by the printing terminal 1 are stapled.

[0025] The stapling mechanism 2 can perform stapling operation on two sheets of paper so that they are associated and stored together, thereby reducing the problem of missing sheets of paper or multiple reports being mixed and unable to be distinguished. Moreover, the mechanism can perform stapling of the sheets of paper in a timely manner, thereby reducing the problem of missing sheets of paper.

[0026] In further optimization, a positioning mechanism 3 is provided on the printing terminal 1 , and the position of the stapling mechanism 2 corresponds to the positioning mechanism 3 . The positioning mechanism 3 is used to position the printed ultrasonic image and text, and perform stapling operations through the stapling mechanism 2 .

[0027] The positioning mechanism 3 can prevent the printed paper from falling, and can make multiple sheets of paper be stacked better and more neatly, making it convenient for the stapling mechanism 2 to perform stapling operations.

[0028] Specifically, the printing terminal 1 has a paper outlet 4 for delivering the printed paper, and the positioning mechanism 3 includes a limit block 31 arranged at the paper outlet 4 , and the limit block 31 is retractably arranged at the position of the paper outlet 4 .

[0029] The paper outlet 4 can be used for feeding out paper. The blocking of the paper outlet 4 by the limit block 31 can limit the paper from falling out of the paper outlet 4. After the paper is stapled, the limit block 31 is pressed down to release the blocking effect on the paper.

[0030] The limit block 31 in this solution can be arranged outside the paper outlet 4, so that the user can push the limit block 31 up and down conveniently, but the paper output will not be blocked.

[0031] The driving mode of the limit block 31 can be implemented by the following two preferred solutions:

[0032] 1. A push rod 32 is provided on the side of the printing terminal 1 at a position corresponding to the limit block 31. The push rod 32 is retractably provided on the side of the printing terminal 1 and connected to the limit block 31. The limit block 31 is rotatably installed in the printing terminal 1, and a strip groove 33 is provided on the limit block 31. The limit block 31 is connected in the strip groove 33, and the limit block 31 is driven to rotate and extend or retract the printing terminal 1. By cooperating with the push rod 32, the user can operate outside the paper outlet 4. The push rod 32 is located on the side. The user holds the printing terminal 1 and presses the limit block 31 from the side. The limit block 31 slides in the bar groove 33 and can press the limit block 31 downward. At this time, the limit block 31 is retracted into the printing terminal 1 by rotating and pressing the button downward. This pressing method is more convenient. The user only needs to press the push rod 32 from the side and use the push rod 32 to bring the limit block 31 into the printing terminal 1, making the user operation more convenient. In this structure, the printing terminal 1 is held in one hand, and the fingers of this hand press the push rod 32 from the side. The other hand is placed at the position of the paper outlet 4 to catch the paper.

[0033] In this solution, the paper outlet 4 and the push rod 32 are respectively located on two adjacent surfaces of the printing terminal 1, and the push rod 32 is located on the side close to the paper outlet 4. This position setting can facilitate user operation. For example, the push rod 32 is located on the left side, and the paper outlet 4 is located in the front. When holding the printing terminal 1, the position of the base of the thumb corresponds to the paper outlet 4. At this time, the push rod 32 will be located at the position of the thumb or the index finger and middle finger, which can make it more convenient for the user to press the push rod 32 hard, and the other hand can also easily catch the paper.

[0034] 2. A lever is provided on the outer surface of the printing terminal 1 at a position corresponding to the limit block 31. The lever can be slid up and down and connected to the printing terminal 1. The lever is fixedly connected to the limit block 31. The lever is located on the surface of the printing terminal 1 at a position corresponding to the paper outlet 4. The difference of this solution is that the lever is located at the position of the paper outlet 4. The user slides the lever up and down on the surface of the printing terminal 1 to move the limit block 31 up and down. In specific use, for example, the left hand holds the printing terminal 1, and the thumb of the other hand pushes the lever downward, moving the limit block 31 into the printing terminal 1. At this time, the corresponding palm can catch the paper.

[0035] The specific bookbinding mechanism 2 can be implemented by the following scheme:

[0036] The stapling mechanism 2 includes an opening 21 opened on the printing terminal 1, a pressure plate 22 rotatably connected to the opening 21, a staple 23 installed on the pressure plate 22, a pressing plate 24 arranged on the pressure plate 22, and a matching plate 25 arranged at the position of the paper outlet 4 of the printing terminal 1. The pressure plate 22 is provided with a groove 26 for accommodating the staple 23, and a notch 27 is provided in the groove 26 at a position corresponding to the pressing plate 24, and a spring 28 is provided in the groove 26 for pressing the staple 23 at the notch 27 through elastic force, so that the worker presses the pressing plate 24 downward and cooperates with the matching plate 25 to perform a stapling operation; at least a portion of the pressing plate 24 is exposed from the opening 21 of the printing terminal 1 for being pressed by a person.

[0037] The groove 26 can be used to store staples 23, and cooperate with the spring 28 to keep the staples 23 in cooperation with the pressing block. A thin sheet is provided on the pressing plate 24 at the position corresponding to the stapler 23, which can cooperate with a single stapler 23 to press down so that it cooperates with the matching plate 25 to form a stapling effect. The above principle is the same as that of a conventional stapler, and will not be elaborated on again.

[0038] During use, the user presses the pressing plate 24, which will cause the pressing plate 22 to rotate until the pressing plate 22 abuts against the matching plate 25. Continuing to press the pressing plate 24 can push the staple 23 out to puncture the paper and cooperate with the matching plate 25 to bend the staple 23, thereby producing a stapling effect.

[0039] It is directly arranged on the printing mechanism, which increases the integration effect and reduces the amount of things that users carry. It can also be directly used in conjunction with printing for bookbinding operations, which is more efficient and can be quickly positioned, making it convenient for users to use.

[0040] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions under the concept of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, some improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the present invention should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
