Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to an ultrasonic probe wire fixator. Background Art
[0002] At present, in medical ultrasonic operations, the ultrasonic probe wire is generally wound and fixed under the operation panel of the ultrasonic machine or on the hooks fixed on both sides to prevent the excessively long ultrasonic probe wire from directly contacting the ground and causing pollution. Some patients need to undergo multiple color Doppler ultrasound examinations. For example, for stroke patients with hypertension, clinicians need to understand the lower limb arteriovenous conditions of the patients (to understand whether there are problems such as lower limb arteriosclerosis obliterans and lower limb vascular embolism in the lower limbs of the patients) and the cardiac and carotid artery conditions of the patients (to understand the impact of hypertension on the hearts and carotid arteries of the patients). Therefore, carotid color Doppler ultrasound, cardiac color Doppler ultrasound, and lower limb arteriovenous color Doppler ultrasound need to be performed on the patients. For patients with varicose veins of the lower limbs, patients with lower limb injuries caused by car accidents, and patients undergoing lower limb bone surgeries, etc., before the operation, the operating doctor and anesthesiologist need to understand the lower limb arteriovenous conditions of the patients and the cardiac function of the patients. Therefore, cardiac color Doppler ultrasound and lower limb arteriovenous color Doppler ultrasound need to be performed on the patients.
[0003] For these patients who need to undergo examinations of the upper half of the body such as cardiac and carotid color Doppler ultrasound, and examinations of the lower half of the body such as lower limb arteriovenous color Doppler ultrasound, and whose body movements are inconvenient, doctors usually choose to let the patients undergo examinations of both the upper and lower halves of the body in one color Doppler ultrasound room. Since the color Doppler ultrasound machine in the color Doppler ultrasound room is usually located at the head of the hospital bed and the color Doppler ultrasound machine and the hospital bed are inconvenient to move, for patients with inconvenient body movements, the color Doppler ultrasound doctor usually asks the patients to lie on the hospital bed with their heads towards the direction close to the color Doppler ultrasound machine. First, the doctor completes the examination of the upper half of the patient's body, and then the doctor holds the ultrasonic probe and moves it to the lower half of the patient's body to examine the patient's lower limbs.
[0004] As the ultrasonic probe moves closer to the patient's lower limbs, the distance between the ultrasonic probe and the ultrasonic machine increases, the length of the ultrasonic probe wire between the ultrasonic probe and the hook on the ultrasonic machine increases, and the length of the ultrasonic probe wire in the suspended state also increases accordingly. When the ultrasonic doctor examines the patient's lower limbs, the part of the long ultrasonic probe wire in the suspended state will continuously pull the hand of the doctor holding the probe. After a long time, it will cause obvious fatigue in the hand and make the hand movements less flexible.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an ultrasonic probe wire fixator to solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model
[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an ultrasonic probe wire fixator, which is convenient for fixing the ultrasonic probe wire at different positions.
[0007] To achieve this purpose, the present utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0008] An ultrasonic probe wire fixator includes a first fixing piece and a second fixing piece. The middle part in the length direction of the second fixing piece is connected to the middle part in the length direction of the first fixing piece. The length of the first fixing piece is greater than that of the second fixing piece. Both ends of the first fixing piece can be bent away from the second fixing piece so that the first fixing piece can wrap around a support. Both ends of the second fixing piece can be bent away from the first fixing piece so that the two ends of the second fixing piece can overlap to form an accommodation cavity for accommodating the ultrasonic probe wire.
[0009] As an improvement to the above technical solution, both ends of the first fixing piece and the second fixing piece are arc-shaped.
[0010] As an improvement to the above technical solution, the first fixing piece includes a first shape memory metal elastic sheet and a first coating layer, and the first coating layer covers the first shape memory metal elastic sheet.
[0011] As an improvement to the above technical solution, the second fixing piece includes a second shape memory metal elastic sheet and a second coating layer, and the second coating layer covers the second shape memory metal elastic sheet.
[0012] As an improvement to the above technical solution, both the first coating layer and the second coating layer are silica gel.
[0013] As an improvement to the above technical solution, it further includes a connecting piece. One end of the connecting piece is fixedly connected to the middle part in the length direction of the first coating layer, and the other end is fixedly connected to the middle part in the length direction of the second coating layer.
[0014] As an improvement to the above technical solution, the first fixing piece and the second fixing piece are arranged at intervals.
[0015] As an improvement to the above technical solution, it further includes a double-sided adhesive strip, and the double-sided adhesive strip can be attached to the side of the first fixing piece away from the second fixing piece.
[0016] The beneficial effects of the present utility model:
[0017] The ultrasonic probe wire fixator of the present utility model has both ends of the first fixing piece and the second fixing piece capable of being bent and deformed. The bending and deformation of the first fixing piece enables the first fixing piece to be easily wrapped and fixed on objects of different shapes and sizes, such as on the armrest of a chair, on the bed frame rod of a hospital bed, etc. And by bending and deforming both ends of the second fixing piece, the ultrasonic probe wire can be wrapped. By fixing the ultrasonic probe wire in the accommodating cavity formed by bending the second fixing piece and wrapping and fixing the first fixing piece on the object near the ultrasonic operation site, the fixation of the ultrasonic probe wire at different positions can be achieved, so that the operator can flexibly select the fixing position of the ultrasonic probe wire as needed. After completing the examination of the upper part of the patient's body, when the ultrasonic doctor holds the ultrasonic probe and moves to the position where the patient's lower limbs are located, the long ultrasonic probe wire can be fixed on the armrest of the chair or the bed frame rod of the hospital bed through the ultrasonic probe wire fixator, and only an appropriate length of the ultrasonic probe wire is reserved between the ultrasonic probe wire fixator and the ultrasonic probe (at this time, only the ultrasonic probe wire between the ultrasonic probe wire fixator and the ultrasonic probe will cause a pulling effect on the operator's palm), shortening the length of the ultrasonic probe wire that will cause a pulling effect on the operator's palm, thereby reducing the pulling effect of the ultrasonic probe wire on the operator's palm, enabling the operator to perform the ultrasonic examination of the lower part of the patient's body more flexibly and easily.

[0025] In the present utility model, unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, the first feature being "above" or "below" the second feature may include the direct contact between the first and second features, or may include the situation where the first and second features are not in direct contact but in contact through other features between them. Moreover, the first feature being "above", "over", and "on top of" the second feature includes that the first feature is directly above and obliquely above the second feature, or merely indicates that the horizontal height of the first feature is higher than that of the second feature. The first feature being "below", "beneath", and "underneath" the second feature includes that the first feature is directly below and obliquely below the second feature, or merely indicates that the horizontal height of the first feature is lower than that of the second feature.
[0026] In the description of this embodiment, the orientation or positional relationship terms such as "above", "below", "right", etc. are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of description and simplifying the operation, rather than indicating or implying that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for distinction in description and have no special meaning.
[0027] As Figures 1 - 3 shown, this embodiment provides an ultrasonic probe wire fixator, which includes a first fixing piece 1 and a second fixing piece 2. The middle part in the length direction of the second fixing piece 2 is connected to the middle part in the length direction of the first fixing piece 1. The length of the first fixing piece 1 is greater than that of the second fixing piece 2. Both ends of the first fixing piece 1 can be bent and deformed in a direction away from the second fixing piece 2 so that the first fixing piece 1 can be wrapped around the support. Both ends of the second fixing piece 2 can be bent and deformed in a direction away from the first fixing piece 1 so that both ends of the second fixing piece 2 can overlap to form a second accommodating cavity for accommodating the ultrasonic probe wire. Those skilled in the art can understand that both the first fixing piece 1 and the second fixing piece 2 are strip-shaped to facilitate the bending of the first fixing piece 1 and the second fixing piece 2.
[0028] The ultrasonic probe line fixer provided in this embodiment has both ends of the first fixing plate 1 and the second fixing plate 2 that can be bent and deformed. The bending and deformation of the first fixing plate 1 enables the first fixing plate 1 to be easily wrapped and fixed on objects of different shapes and sizes, such as the armrests of a chair, the bed frame rods of a hospital bed, etc., and the bending and deformation of the two ends of the second fixing plate 2 can wrap the ultrasonic probe line. By fixing the ultrasonic probe line in the accommodation cavity formed by the bending of the second fixing plate 2, and wrapping and fixing the first fixing plate 1 on an object near the ultrasonic operation site, the ultrasonic probe line can be fixed at different positions, so that the operator can flexibly select the fixing position of the ultrasonic probe line according to needs, thereby avoiding the long and dragging ultrasonic probe line pulling the operator's palm, so that the operator can perform gynecological ultrasound, lower limb vascular ultrasound, lower limb musculoskeletal ultrasound and lower limb superficial ultrasound examinations for patients more flexibly and easily. When it is necessary to remove the ultrasonic probe line, press the first fixing plate 1 and pull the ultrasonic probe line to make the ultrasonic probe line escape from the cavity surrounded by the second fixing plate 2.
[0029] Alternatively, if Figures 1 - 3 As shown, both ends of the first fixing plate 1 and the second fixing plate 2 are arc-shaped, so as to avoid sharp corners at both ends of the first fixing plate 1 and the second fixing plate 2, thereby preventing the sharp corners from stabbing medical staff.
[0030] Optionally, the first fixing sheet 1 can remain curled after being bent in a direction away from the second fixing sheet 2, and the second fixing sheet 2 can also remain curled after being bent in a direction away from the first fixing sheet 1. When the ultrasound probe line holder is not in use, the first fixing sheet 1 and the second fixing sheet 2 can both be straightened, and can both remain in a straightened state after being straightened.
[0031] Furthermore, the first fixing plate 1 includes a first memory metal spring and a first coating layer, and the first coating layer covers the first memory metal spring. The first coating layer covers the first memory metal spring to prevent medical staff from directly contacting the first memory metal spring, thereby preventing the first memory metal spring from scratching the medical staff during the use of the ultrasound probe line holder. The second fixing plate 2 includes a second memory metal spring and a second coating layer, and the second coating layer covers the second memory metal spring. The second coating layer covers the second memory metal spring to prevent medical staff and the ultrasound probe line from directly contacting the second memory metal spring, thereby preventing the second memory metal spring from scratching the medical staff and the ultrasound probe line during the use of the ultrasound probe line holder. Specifically, in the present embodiment, the first coating layer and the second coating layer are both silicone.
[0032] The first shape memory metal sheet enables the first fixing piece 1 to curl (i.e., bend) only in the direction away from the second fixing piece 2, and the second shape memory metal sheet enables the second fixing piece 2 to curl only in the direction away from the first fixing piece 1. Moreover, after the first fixing piece 1 and the second fixing piece 2 are straightened, both the first shape memory metal sheet and the second shape memory metal sheet can maintain the straightened state. Specifically, to achieve the above effects, when the first fixing piece 1 is in the straightened state, along the width direction of the first fixing piece 1, the first shape memory metal sheet is arc-shaped, and along the width direction of the first fixing piece 1, the bending arc of the first shape memory metal sheet faces the second fixing piece 2. Similarly, when the second fixing piece 2 is in the straightened state, along the width direction of the second fixing piece 2, the second shape memory metal sheet is arc-shaped, and along the width direction of the second fixing piece 2, the bending arc of the second shape memory metal sheet faces the first fixing piece 1. Those skilled in the art can understand that the structures and curling characteristics of the first fixing piece 1 and the second fixing piece 2 in this embodiment are the same as those of the slap bracelet, and the structure and principle of the slap bracelet are common knowledge in the art.
[0033] Optionally, the ultrasonic probe wire fixer provided in this embodiment further includes a connecting piece 3. One end of the connecting piece 3 is fixedly connected to the middle part in the length direction of the first coating layer, and the other end is fixedly connected to the middle part in the length direction of the second coating layer. The connection between the first fixing piece 1 and the second fixing piece 2 is realized through the connecting piece 3.
[0034] Furthermore, the connecting piece 3 can undergo elastic deformation to reduce the influence of the connecting piece 3 on the bending deformation of the first fixing piece 1 and the second fixing piece 2. In this embodiment, the material of the connecting piece 3 is selected as a soft plastic, such as PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), or EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer), etc.
[0035] Furthermore, as Figures 1 - 3 shown, the first fixing piece 1 and the second fixing piece 2 are arranged at intervals. This facilitates the operator to curl and straighten the first fixing piece 1 and the second fixing piece 2 respectively.
[0036] Optionally, the ultrasonic probe wire fixer provided in this embodiment further includes a double-sided adhesive tape, and the double-sided adhesive tape can be attached to the side of the first fixing piece 1 away from the second fixing piece 2. When there is no object with a suitable size near the ultrasonic operation site for the first fixing piece 1 to wrap and fix, the double-sided adhesive tape can be attached to the side of the first fixing piece 1 away from the second fixing piece 2, and the first fixing piece 1 is fixed to a large-sized object through the double-sided adhesive tape to achieve the fixation of the ultrasonic probe wire fixer.
[0037] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the technical principle of the present utility model, several improvements and replacements can still be made, and these improvements and replacements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present utility model.
