Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of tools for measuring leg circumference, in particular to a novel tool for measuring leg circumference. Background Art

[0002] Calf circumference measurement is widely used in medical diagnosis and treatment, such as assessing sarcopenia, determining the degree of lower limb edema in cardiovascular disease, and evaluating fluid retention in hemodialysis patients. Traditionally, calf circumference measurements were made by circling the thickest part of the calf with a tape measure. However, these measurements were often affected by visual inspection and measurement technique, making them inaccurate.

[0003] Traditional measuring rulers are divided into two types: belt rulers and hard rulers. When measuring with belt rulers and hard rulers, due to the presence of the fibula in the front of the leg, the measuring ruler cannot fit the skin well when wrapped around the leg, and there will be gaps, resulting in measurement errors. In addition, when wrapping the measuring ruler around the leg, there is no guarantee that the measuring ruler will not shift when wrapped, that is, it cannot be guaranteed that the leg circumference measured is within the same diameter, resulting in errors. Utility Model Content

[0004] (1) Purpose of the utility model

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to propose a new tool for measuring leg circumference. The technical problem to be solved is that due to the presence of the fibula in the front of the leg, when the measuring ruler is wrapped around the leg, the measuring ruler cannot fit the skin well, and there will be gaps, resulting in measurement errors. In addition, when the measuring ruler is wrapped around the leg, it cannot be guaranteed that the measuring ruler will be offset during wrapping, that is, it cannot be guaranteed that the leg circumference measured is within the same diameter, resulting in errors.

[0006] (2) Technical solution

[0007] In order to achieve the above technical objectives, the present invention provides a new tool for measuring leg circumference:

[0008] The utility model comprises a measuring tape, a rubber positioning piece is fixed on one side of the measuring tape, straps are provided above and below the measuring tape, and multiple groups of constraint components are provided between the two straps for preventing the measuring tape from deflecting, and each group of constraint components comprises vertical straps and indicator tapes that are arranged oppositely, the two ends of the vertical straps and indicator tapes are respectively fixed to the corresponding straps, there is a gap between the vertical straps and the indicator tapes, and the measuring tapes are slidably fitted in the gap.

[0009] Preferably, a through slot 1 is provided at one end of the strap, and the other end of the strap can pass through the through slot 1 and slide in the through slot 1.

[0010] Preferably, a fleece surface and a hook surface are provided on the outer side of the strap, and the fleece surface and the hook surface are bonded to each other.

[0011] Preferably, a groove is formed on the inner side of the rubber positioning piece, and the measuring tape is slidably fitted in the groove.

[0012] Preferably, a second through slot is formed at one end of the rubber positioning piece, and the measuring tape passes through the second through slot and slides in the second through slot.

[0013] Preferably, the rubber positioning piece is 15 cm long, 5 cm wide and 0.5 cm thick, and the vertical strip is 0.1 cm thick.

[0014] Preferably, the measuring tape is made of soft silicone and has a length of 45 cm.

[0015] It can be seen from the above technical solutions that this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1: By setting the rubber positioning piece, press the rubber positioning piece so that the rubber positioning piece and the fibula of the leg fit together. That is, when the measuring tape passes through the groove, the measuring tape fits on the skin of the leg, thereby avoiding the gap between the measuring tape and the leg and improving the measurement accuracy.

[0017] 2: By setting the vertical tape and the indicator tape, observe the indicator tape to determine whether the measuring tape is on the same diameter of the leg. If the scales on the multiple indicator tapes are not in the same position, pull the measuring tape to make the measuring tape on the same scale on the multiple indicator tapes to ensure that the measuring tape measures the leg circumference at the same diameter, further improving the measurement accuracy.

[0025] Reference Figure 1-4 :

[0026] In one embodiment of the present utility model, a new leg circumference measuring tool is provided, including a measuring tape 1, a rubber positioning piece 2 is fixed to one side of the measuring tape 1, straps 3 are provided above and below the measuring tape 1, and multiple groups of constraint components 4 are provided between the two straps 3 to prevent the measuring tape 1 from deflecting, and each group of constraint components 4 includes relatively arranged vertical straps 41 and indicating tapes 42, the ends of the vertical straps 41 and the indicating tapes 42 are respectively fixed to the corresponding straps 3, and there is a gap 5 between the vertical straps 41 and the indicating tapes 42, and the measuring tape 1 slides into the gap 5.

[0027] Among them, one end of the strap 3 is provided with a through slot 8, and the other end of the strap 3 can pass through the through slot 8 and slide into the through slot 8. The outer side of the strap 3 is provided with a hairy surface 6 and a hook surface 7, and the hairy surface 6 and the hook surface 7 are bonded together.

[0028] When in use, first fix the strap 3 above the measuring tape 1 to the leg, pass one end of the strap 3 through the through slot 1 8, then flip the strap 3 over so that the hook surface 7 and the fleece surface 6 adhere to each other, and then fix the strap 3 to the leg. Then pass the rubber positioning piece 2 through the groove 9 and the through slot 2 10, and then fix the strap 3 below the measuring tape 1 to the leg. Press the rubber positioning piece 2 so that the rubber positioning piece 2 fits the fibula of the leg, so that the measuring tape 1 fits the skin of the leg, thereby avoiding the situation where there is a gap between the measuring tape 1 and the leg, and improving the accuracy of measurement.

[0029] Furthermore, a groove 9 is provided on the inner side of the rubber positioning piece 2, and the measuring tape 1 slides into the groove 9. A through groove 2 10 is provided at one end of the rubber positioning piece 2, and the measuring tape 1 passes through the through groove 2 10 and slides in the through groove 2 10. The rubber positioning piece 2 is 15 cm long, 5 cm wide, and 0.5 cm thick. The vertical belt 41 is 0.1 cm thick. The measuring tape 1 is made of soft silicone and is 45 cm long.

[0030] During use, the measuring tape 1 is pulled out to straighten it, and then the indicator tape 42 is observed to determine whether the measuring tape 1 is at the same diameter of the leg. If the scales of the measuring tape 1 on the multiple indicator tapes 42 are not at the same position, the measuring tape 1 is pulled so that the measuring tape 1 is at the same scale on the multiple indicator tapes 42. This ensures that the measuring tape 1 measures the leg circumference at the same diameter, thereby further improving the measurement accuracy.
