[0020] Such as Figures 1 to 3As shown in the figure, a leg automatic measuring device includes a housing 1 and a tape measure 3 for measuring leg circumference. One side of the housing 1 is set as an arc surface. A winding roller 2 is rotatably connected inside the housing 1. The tape measure 3 is wound around the outside of the winding roller 2 and one end of the tape measure 3 is fixed to the winding roller 2. The other end of the tape measure 3 extends to the outside of the housing 1 and is movably matched with it. A limiting mechanism 4 is arranged on the outside of the winding roller 2. The limiting mechanism 4 includes a limiting component and a reset component. The reset component is arranged inside the winding roller 2, and the limiting component is arranged on the outside of the winding roller 2.
[0021] The limiting component includes a ratchet wheel 401. The ratchet wheel 401 is fixedly connected to the outside of the winding roller 2. A pawl 404 is arranged on one side of the ratchet wheel 401. A vertical rod is arranged inside the pawl 404. The vertical rod is fixedly connected to the inner bottom surface of the housing 1. The pawl 404 and the vertical rod are fixed by a torsion spring 405.
[0022] The reset component includes a support rod 403. The support rod 403 is arranged inside the winding roller 2. The support rod 403 is fixed to the inner bottom surface of the housing 1. The winding roller 2 and the support rod 403 are fixed by a clockwork spring 402.
[0023] During specific operation, a handle 5 is integrally formed outside the housing 1 for hand-held operation. When the arc surface on the housing 1 is attached to the surface of the leg, the tape measure 3 can be pulled by stretching one end of the tape measure 3 to wind around the leg for one circle. The movement of the tape measure 3 drives the winding roller 2 to rotate against the force of the clockwork spring 402. The rotation of the winding roller 2 drives the ratchet wheel 401 to rotate. However, the ratchet wheel 401 is restricted by the pawl 404, so that the ratchet wheel 401 can only rotate in one direction and cannot rotate in the reverse direction. The tape measure 3 is wound around the leg for one circle to measure the leg circumference. Through the cooperation of the limiting component and the reset component, the leg muscles will not be overly squeezed during leg circumference measurement, avoiding inaccurate measurement. A groove is provided on the upper surface of the housing 1. An elastic buckle is arranged in the groove. A marker pen 7 is clamped in the elastic buckle. After the leg measurement is completed, the marker pen 7 can be quickly taken out of the elastic buckle to mark the measurement position. A display screen 8 is arranged on the upper surface of the housing 1, and the measurement data is displayed on the display screen 8. An electronic sensor is equipped in the tape measure 3. When the tape measure 3 is pulled for measurement, the electronic sensor will capture the movement or position change of the tape measure 3 and convert it into an electrical signal. These electrical signals are then sent to the data processing unit for necessary calculations and processing. Finally, the processed data is displayed through the display screen 8 connected to the system.
[0024] Such as Figures 2 to 3As shown in the figure, a release component is arranged above the limit component. By pressing the release component to squeeze the limit component, the fixation of the winding roller 2 is released. The release component includes a first extrusion block 6, and the first extrusion block 6 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the pawl 404. Above one side of the first extrusion block 6, there is a second extrusion block 601. The top of the second extrusion block 601 is fixedly connected with a slide rod 603. One end of the slide rod 603 extends outside the housing 1 and is slidably matched with it. The housing 1 and the second extrusion block 601 are fixed by a spring 602, and the spring 602 is sleeved outside the slide rod 603.
[0025] During specific operation, after the leg circumference measurement is completed, the slide rod 603 extending outside the housing 1 can be pressed. The slide rod 603 moves towards the direction of the first extrusion block 6 against the acting force of the spring 602. The movement of the slide rod 603 drives the movement of the second extrusion block 601. Since the shapes of the second extrusion block 601 and the first extrusion block 6 are set as spheres, the second extrusion block 601 can squeeze the first extrusion block 6 to move towards the direction close to the pawl 404. The movement of the first extrusion block 6 drives the pawl 404 to move against the acting force of the torsion spring 405. The movement of the pawl 404 can release the limit on the ratchet wheel 401, so that the winding roller 2 rotates clockwise under the acting force of the clockwork spring 402. The rotation of the winding roller 2 can quickly recycle the tape measure 3. The structure is simple, the operation is convenient, and time and labor are saved.
