An elastic retraction structure is also provided between the second reel and the second soft tape measure 312.

[0055] Specifically, a calf circumference measurement component 3 is provided at the end of the second end of the ruler 1 to measure the calf circumference of the patient through the calf circumference measurement component 3. A retractable tape measure is provided for easy operation and storage. The elastic retraction structure in the tape measure can be implemented using existing technology. As long as the first soft tape measure 212 can be pulled out and retracted from the first shell 211 of the first tape measure 21, the second tape measure 31 and the first tape measure 21 can be implemented using the same structure.

[0056] Among them, the second clamping part 32 is adapted to the structure of the second shell 311 of the second tape measure 31. The second clamping part 32 can be set to a hollow cylindrical structure with an opening, so that under the action of external force, the second shell 311 can enter the clamping area from the opening to achieve clamping, and the width of the opening is smaller than the outer diameter of the second shell 311.

[0057] In one possible embodiment, the maximum measuring length of the first soft measuring tape 212 and the second soft measuring tape 312 can be set to 60 cm to adapt to the measurement needs of patients of different body shapes, while reducing the setting size of the measuring tape to avoid waste of materials or resources.

[0058] In a possible implementation, the arc length of the cross section of the ruler 1 is 2 cm. Furthermore, the starting scales of the first soft measuring tape 212 and the second soft measuring tape 312 are both 2 cm.

[0059] Specifically, since the arc length of the cross section of the ruler 1 is 2 cm, the starting scales of the first soft measuring tape 212 and the second soft measuring tape 312 are set to 2 cm accordingly to take the width of the ruler 1 into account. This facilitates measurement readings while reducing the error caused by the size of the ruler 1 in measurement and improving measurement accuracy.

[0060] In one possible embodiment, the patellar fixing member 4 includes a pair of fixing straps, which are respectively fixed on both sides of the ruler 1 and symmetrically distributed on both sides of the patellar position mark 11. The pair of fixing straps are fixed by Velcro, so that the leg circumference measuring device of the present application is fixed to the patient's knee by the Velcro on the fixing straps.

[0061] In a possible implementation, the distance between the center of the patella position mark 11 and the setting position of the first measuring tape 21 is 15 cm, and the distance between the center of the patella position mark 11 and the setting position of the second measuring tape 31 is 10 cm.

[0062] Specifically, the distance between the center of the patella position mark 11, that is, the preset position and the outer edge of the setting position of the first tape measure 21 is 15 cm, and the distance between the center of the patella position mark 11 (that is, the preset position) and the outer edge of the setting position of the second tape measure 31 is 10 cm, so that the thigh circumference at a distance of 15 cm from the patient's patella can be measured by the thigh circumference measurement component 2, and the calf circumference at a distance of 10 cm from the patient's patella can be measured at the same time by the calf circumference measurement component 3, and at the same time, it can be ensured that the position of each test is the same. The specific setting of 15 cm and 10 cm from the patella is because the muscle tissue structure at these two positions is relatively complete, which can fully reflect the edema caused by obstruction of venous return, making the measurement results more accurate and rapid.
