Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of medical equipment, in particular to a CT machine rotation locking device with a locking detection function. Background Art
[0002] During operation, a CT scanner uses a rotating body to drive the detector, X-ray source, and other components to perform scanning. To ensure stable and safe operation, the rotating body is typically equipped with a rotation locking pin assembly, which secures the body when the CT scanner is not in operation. However, in actual operation, it has been found that if the operator forgets to remove the locking pin and attempts to rotate the rotating body, the control system will not be able to detect and output the corresponding control signal, resulting in the rotating body not being able to rotate normally and potentially causing damage to the equipment.
[0003] Patent publication number CN113740363B discloses a locking assembly for a CT detection device and a CT detection device. The assembly comprises a first hole on the periphery of a rotating frame and a second hole aligned with at least one of the first holes on the periphery of a support frame. However, the assembly is designed to utilize a first sleeve to detachably engage within the aligned first and second holes, and to lock the rotating frame when replacing a slip ring bearing. The assembly does not emit a sensing signal if the operator forgets to remove the locking pin.
[0004] Patent publication number CN110916698B discloses a self-locking CT gantry and a vehicle-mounted CT machine, which are equipped with an adaptive locking control system on the main frame and the rotatably connected tilting gantry. The locking control system includes a pin holder, a latch, a drive device, and a position sensor. The drive device is provided on the tilting gantry to drive the latch to switch between a locked position and an unlocked position. The position sensor is used to detect the position of the latch to determine the locked and unlocked positions of the latch and the pin holder. However, this device requires the provision of a first position sensor and a second position sensor for coordinated detection, resulting in a relatively complex structure. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0028] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0029] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the utility model includes a lock detection mechanism 1 and a latch mechanism 2, wherein Figures 4-5 As shown, the locking detection mechanism 1 includes a detection element 106 and a movable detection shaft 101. Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the latch mechanism 2 includes a guide sleeve 206 and a locking pin 207, and a fixing frame 204 is provided on the upper end of the guide sleeve 206. The fixing frame 204 is provided with limit slots on both the front and rear sides. The fixing frame 204 is provided with a trigger slot on the side close to the locking detection mechanism 1. The locking pin 207 is inserted into the guide sleeve 206, and a bayonet 205 is provided on the upper end of the locking pin 207 and placed in the fixing frame 204. Figure 3 As shown, when the latch 205 rotates from the limit slot to the trigger slot position, the detection shaft 101 is driven backward by the latch 205 to trigger the detection element 106. At the same time, the lower end of the locking pin 207 extends from the lower end of the guide sleeve 206 and is inserted into the pin hole on the CT machine rotator 3 to achieve locking. At this time, the detection element 106 sends a signal to the equipment control system to determine the status of the locking pin 207 in real time.
[0030] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, in this embodiment, the upper end of the locking pin 207 is provided with a handle 203, a spring stopper 201 and a pin spring 202, wherein the spring stopper 201 and the pin spring 202 are both provided in the fixing frame 204, and the pin spring 202 is sleeved on the locking pin 207, the upper end of the pin spring 202 abuts against the top plate of the fixing frame 204, and the lower end abuts against the spring stopper 201, and the lower end of the handle 203 passes through the top plate of the fixing frame 204 and is fixedly connected to the upper end of the locking pin 207. When the present utility model is used, the operator lifts the handle 203 to raise the locking pin 207, thereby causing the latch 205 at the upper end of the locking pin 207 to be in a state of being out of the limit slot or the trigger slot to achieve free rotation, wherein as Figure 1 As shown, when the latch 205 rotates clockwise from the trigger slot to the limit slot position and the end falls into the corresponding limit slot, the locking pin 207 rises and retracts into the guide sleeve 206 and no longer locks the rotating body 3, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, the operator rotates the handle 203 to rotate the latch 205 counterclockwise from the limit slot to the trigger slot position, and when the end falls to the bottom of the trigger slot, the detection shaft 101 abuts against the latch 205 and is driven backward by the latch 205 to trigger the detection element 106. Furthermore, when the latch 205 is rotated into position, the operator releases the handle 203, and the locking pin 207 automatically moves downward under the action of the pin spring 202, causing the latch 205 to automatically engage with the limit slot or the trigger slot.
[0031] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the front side of the fixing frame 204 is provided with a first limiting slot 2041 and the rear side is provided with a second limiting slot 2043. When the locking pin 207 is in the unlocked state, the front end of the pin 205 is placed in the first limiting slot 2041 and the rear end is placed in the second limiting slot 2043.
[0032] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, a slot baffle 2042 is provided on the side of the fixing frame 204 close to the locking detection mechanism 1 , and the trigger slot is formed between the two slot baffles 2042 .
[0033] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the upper end of the guide sleeve 206 is provided with a guide sleeve end plate 2061, and the fixing frame 204 is installed on the guide sleeve end plate 2061. The side of the fixing frame 204 away from the locking detection mechanism 1 is an open state with no baffle design, as shown in FIG. Figure 3As shown, when the locking pin 207 is in the locked state, the two ends of the pin 205 directly abut against the guide sleeve end plate 2061 for limiting position, and since the position of the guide sleeve end plate 2061 is lower than the bottom position of the first limiting slot 2041 and the second limiting slot 2043, it can be ensured that the lower end of the locking pin 207 extends out from the lower end of the guide sleeve 206.
[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the front end of the detection shaft 101 is provided with an abutment groove 1011, and the bottom of the abutment groove 1011 is designed as an inclined surface. Figure 2 As shown, when the pin 205 rotates to the abutment position with the front end of the detection shaft 101, after the operator releases the handle 203, the end of the pin 205 can fall into the abutment groove 1011 to ensure the accurate position. At the same time, under the driving action of the pin spring 202, the end of the pin 205 can slide downward along the bottom inclined surface of the abutment groove 1011, thereby driving the detection shaft 101 to retreat and trigger the detection element 106.
[0035] like Figures 4-5 As shown, in this embodiment, the locking detection mechanism 1 includes a mounting base 102, and the mounting base 102 is provided with a first guide seat 1021 at the head end, a second guide seat 104 in the middle, and the detection element 106 at the tail end, the detection shaft 101 is provided with a guide slider at the head end passing through the first guide seat 1021, and the tail end of the detection shaft 101 passes through the second guide seat 104, and the detection shaft 101 is provided with a detection shaft spring 103 to achieve automatic reset, and the front end of the detection shaft spring 103 is abutted against the stop table 1014 formed on the rear side of the guide slider, and the rear end is abutted against the second guide seat 104.
[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the guide slider at the head end of the detection shaft 101 is inserted into the first guide hole on the first guide seat 1021, and a slider plane 1012 is formed on the upper side of the guide slider, and a limiting protrusion 1013 is formed at the rear end of the slider plane 1012. The upper inner wall of the first guide hole forms a guide hole plane 1022 that cooperates with the slider plane 1012. In this way, when the detection shaft 101 moves forward and extends, the limiting protrusion 1013 can be against the rear surface of the first guide seat 1021 to limit the forward displacement of the detection shaft 101.
[0037] like Figures 4-5As shown, in this embodiment, the second guide seat 104 is fixed to the mounting base 102 on both sides by first screws 110, and the mounting base 102 can be provided with one or more sets of threaded holes along the length direction as needed. The provision of multiple sets of threaded holes can achieve the purpose of adjusting the position of the second guide seat 104, and thus the compression force of the detection shaft spring 103 can be adjusted according to actual needs to match the triggering force of different detection elements 106. When the position of the second guide seat 104 is determined, the first screw 110 passes through the second guide seat 104 and is then threaded into a corresponding set of threaded holes on the mounting base 102. (Multiple sets of threaded holes are reserved, as long as the logic is feasible)
[0038] like Figures 4-5 As shown, in this embodiment, a bracket 105 is provided at the rear end of the mounting base 102 , and the detection element 106 is fixedly mounted on the bracket 105 .
[0039] In this embodiment, the detection element 106 may be a micro switch, which is a well-known technology in the art and is a commercially available product. Figures 4-5 As shown, in this embodiment, the micro switch is fixed to the bracket 105 by a fixing screw 107, and the bracket 105 is fixed to the mounting base 102 by a bracket screw 108. The rear end of the mounting base 102 is fixed to the corresponding frame of the CT machine by a second screw 109 and the head end is fixed by a third screw 111, wherein two third screws 111 are respectively provided on both sides of the first guide seat 1021.
[0040] The working principle of this utility model is:
[0041] When the present invention is used, the operator lifts the handle 203 to raise the locking pin 207, thereby making the latch 205 at the upper end of the locking pin 207 disengage from the limit slot or the trigger slot to achieve free rotation, wherein Figure 1 As shown, when the latch 205 rotates clockwise from the trigger slot to the limit slot position and the end falls into the corresponding limit slot, the locking pin 207 rises and retracts into the guide sleeve 206 and no longer locks the rotating body 3, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, when the operator rotates the handle 203 to rotate the pin 205 counterclockwise from the limit slot to the trigger slot position, after the operator releases the handle 203, the end of the pin 205 can fall into the abutment slot 1011 at the head end of the detection shaft 101, and under the driving action of the pin spring 202, the end of the pin 205 slides downward along the bottom inclined surface of the abutment slot 1011, thereby driving the detection shaft 101 to retreat and trigger the detection element 106.
