Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of medical instruments, in particular to a breast ptosis measuring device. Background Art

[0002] Breast sagging is a common phenomenon, mostly seen in women. In today's ever-changing world, people have new pursuits for breast health and breast shape beauty. More and more people are beginning to pay attention to the degree of breast sagging, and the L point is an important reference object in evaluating the degree of breast sagging.

[0003] The medical definition of point L is the intersection of the inner extension line of the folds under both breasts and the midline of the sternum. Draw a horizontal line through point L. If the position of both nipples is lower than this horizontal line, it means the breasts are sagging. When the breasts sag to varying degrees, point L remains unchanged, so this point can be used as a reference point for measurement.

[0004] The most common methods of measuring breast ptosis are as follows:

[0005] 1. The doctor finds the inframammary fold (the junction between the lower part of the breast and the abdomen), visually measures the projection of the nipple on the chest, and measures the distance from the lowest point of the inframammary fold to the projection point, and uses the measured data to determine the degree of sagging;

[0006] 2. Photo comparison, that is, taking photos of the breasts in the same position, angle and lighting conditions, and comparing them with the breasts in a normal state. By observing the shape, position and sagging of the breasts, the degree of breast sagging can be preliminarily assessed, but this method lacks measurement accuracy and is difficult to provide data support for subsequent work;

[0007] 3. Three-dimensional scanning modeling, that is, scanning the breasts and displaying them in three-dimensional data. Although this method has high measurement accuracy, the data is highly professional, which is not conducive to the general public to directly grasp the relevance of the degree of breast sagging. In addition, this measurement method is expensive and time-consuming. Utility Model Content

[0008] The utility model aims to provide a breast ptosis measuring device, which is convenient and quick to measure, has accurate and easy-to-understand measurement data and low measurement cost.

[0009] The purpose of the utility model is achieved through the following technical solutions: a breast ptosis measuring device, which includes a base and an angle measuring assembly arranged on the top surface of the base; the angle measuring assembly includes a protractor and a first telescopic rod; one end of the first telescopic rod is hinged at the center of the top of the base, and its hinge axis is extended left and right, and the other end of the first telescopic rod is provided with a swing rod, and a universal ball joint is connected between the first telescopic rod and the swing rod; the center of the protractor is opposite to the left or right side of the hinge point between the first telescopic rod and the base, and the protractor is parallel to the swing surface of the first telescopic rod.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the utility model are:

[0011] 1. Through the cooperation of the first telescopic rod hinged to the base and the protractor, the effect of convenient and rapid measurement of the breast ptosis angle can be achieved, and through the cooperation of the circumferentially free swinging rod and the scale, the projection distance of the nipple relative to the lowest point of the inframammary fold can be quickly measured;

[0012] 2. Through the cooperation of the distance measuring component and the angle measuring component, the cumbersome three-dimensional vector data is converted into two-dimensional plane coordinate data. The measurement data accuracy is reliable, and the two-dimensional plane coordinate data is intuitive and easy to understand, which is convenient for the measured people to quickly grasp;

[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 Shown is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of a breast ptosis measuring device provided by the utility model.

[0026] A breast ptosis measuring device comprises a base 1 and an angle measuring assembly 2 arranged on the top surface of the base 1; the angle measuring assembly 2 comprises a protractor 21 and a first telescopic rod 22; one end of the first telescopic rod 22 is hinged at the top center of the base 1, and its hinge axis is extended left and right, and the other end of the first telescopic rod 22 is provided with a swing rod 23, and a universal ball joint 24 is connected between the first telescopic rod 22 and the swing rod 23; the center of the protractor 21 is opposite to the left or right side of the hinge point between the first telescopic rod 22 and the base 1, and the protractor 21 is parallel to the swing surface of the first telescopic rod 22.

[0027] The swing rod 23 is a telescopic rod.

[0028] The protractor 21 is hinged with the base 1, the purpose of which is to reduce the space height of the utility model to achieve the effect of convenient storage. The rotation connection between the protractor 21 and the base 1 is a tight connection, ensuring that the protractor 21 will not automatically fall when it is rotated to a vertical position.
