[0029] A percussion hammer is an instrument used by doctors to check neuromuscular reflexes. It is usually made of a piece of rubber and a wooden or metal handle. When in use, the rubber end is used to gently tap the relevant parts to observe the neuromuscular reflexes. Neuromuscular reflexes are a basic way of human life activities. When the nervous system is damaged, abnormal reflexes will appear. The percussion hammer is an instrument used to check the patient's abnormal reflexes. The percussion hammer used in the existing diagnosis and treatment process has a relatively simple structure. Medical staff can only perform simple neuromuscular reflex tests. When pain tests and two-point discrimination tests are required, other instruments need to be used. It cannot meet the needs of medical staff in different scenarios and is not conducive to a more comprehensive examination of patients. In response to the above technical problems, the present invention provides a medical percussion hammer used for nervous system testing. In addition to being able to complete simple neuromuscular reflex tests, it can also perform pain tests and two-point discrimination tests, making it easier for medical staff to conduct comprehensive examinations of patients. It has the advantage of high practicality. The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to specific examples.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 as well as Figure 2As shown, the utility model relates to a medical percussion hammer used for nervous system detection, including an operating rod 10, a percussion component 20 and a two-point discrimination component 30, wherein the operating rod 10 is for medical staff to hold and operate, and the percussion component 20 is arranged at one end of the operating rod 10, and the percussion component 20 includes a cylindrical percussion end 201 and a pointed cone-shaped pain stimulation end 202.

[0031] The two-point discrimination assembly 30 includes two test rods 301 , the ends of which are used to contact the patient to perform a two-point discrimination test. Both test rods 301 are rotatably connected to the operating rod 10 .

[0032] For example, when a medical professional uses the percussion hammer to examine a patient, they only need to hold the operating rod 10 and perform a neurological examination on the patient through the percussion component 20 or the two-point discrimination component 30. During the examination, the medical professional can select the percussion end to perform a simple nerve reflex test, the pointed cone-shaped pain stimulation end 202 to perform a pain test, or the two-point discrimination component 30 to perform a two-point discrimination test on the patient by rotating the test rod 301 to adjust the distance between the ends of the test rod 301. The percussion hammer facilitates medical professionals to conduct a comprehensive examination of patients and has the advantage of high practicality.

[0033] In one embodiment, the overall structure of the operating rod 10 is further refined. The operating rod 10 includes a grip section 101 and a telescopic section 102, which is telescopically and slidably connected to the grip section 101. The tapping assembly 20 is disposed at the end of the telescopic section 102, and the two-point discrimination assembly 30 is disposed on the grip section 101. Specifically, the tapping assembly 20 also includes a connecting block 203, which is fixedly connected to the telescopic section 102. The cylindrical tapping end 201 and the conical pain stimulation end 202 are respectively disposed at the ends of the connecting block 203.

[0034] The telescopic section 102 and the grip section 101 are configured to be retractable, allowing the percussion hammer to be adjustable in length. When examining the left limb reflexes while the patient is standing on the right side, medical personnel no longer need to move the hammer back and forth. Simply pulling out the telescopic section 102 extends the hammer's overall length, further enhancing the device's ease of use. In this embodiment, the telescopic section 102 comprises a two-stage telescopic structure.

[0035] In this embodiment, one end of the hand grip section 101 is the tail end, and the other end is the connection end. In order to facilitate medical personnel to hold the hand grip section 101 to test the patient's two-point discrimination, the two-point discrimination component 30 is set at the connection end. The specific position is as follows: Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 shown.

[0036] In this embodiment, the overall structure of the two-point discrimination component 30 is further refined, and the two-point discrimination component 30 also includes a collar 302. The collar 302 is mounted on the operating rod 10. Two collars 302 are provided and vertically stacked. The two test rods 301 are rotatably connected to the operating rod 10 through the two collars 302.

[0037] For example, when a two-point discrimination test is required, the distance between the end points of the two test rods 301 can be adjusted according to actual conditions by relatively rotating the collar 302 .

[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, the collar 302 and the operating rod 10 are configured to have an interference fit to ensure positioning between them. This interference fit provides a damping effect, allowing the collar 302 to be relatively positioned on the operating rod 10 in the absence of external forces. This structural arrangement optimizes the measurement stability of the test rod 301.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, two test rods 301 are provided on the collar 302 and are arranged opposite to each other.

[0040] It should be noted that by rotating and adjusting the two rings 302, the four test rods 301 can be adjusted to form a cross-shaped distribution. Two adjacent test rods 301 can constitute a component for testing, and the other two adjacent test rods 301 can constitute a spare component. When examining multiple patients one by one, medical staff can examine two patients at the same time. After the examination is completed, cleaning and disinfection can be carried out to improve the work efficiency of medical staff.

[0041] In one embodiment, a protective cover is provided on the pointed cone-shaped pain stimulation end 202. When not in use, the protective cover can be placed on the pointed cone-shaped pain stimulation end 202 to protect its tip and prevent accidental collisions. In addition, a ring is provided at the bottom of the operating rod 10 for threading a rope for hanging.

[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention.
