Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of C-arms, in particular to a C-arm and an X-ray machine. Background Art
[0002] Common mobile C-arm X-ray machines can be divided into split machines and integrated machines. Among them, the split machine generally divides the system into two parts: a trolley and a main unit. Usually, the main unit is equipped with an X-ray generator, detector, and motion device, and the trolley is equipped with an imaging computer and display. The main unit and the trolley are interconnected by cables or wirelessly.
[0003] When manipulating the C-arm to achieve the ideal position, the operator needs to frequently adjust the C-arm electrically or manually. When manually adjusting, the operator must first unlock the electric brake for that dimension on the display's control panel, then grasp the appropriate handle to operate the C-arm. Once adjusted, the operator then locks the electric brake on the control panel. Manually moving the C-arm typically requires the operator to be near the bed, controlling the handle on the side of the C-arm. The button to unlock / lock the electric brake is typically located on the control panel, which is often far from the operating table, especially when the arm is extended to its furthest position. Therefore, manipulating the C-arm to achieve the ideal position requires the operator to move back and forth between the near-bed and far-bed areas, resulting in inefficient adjustment.
[0004] Therefore, the prior art needs to be further developed. Utility Model Content

[0024] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of this application.
[0025] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a C-arm is provided. Figures 1 to 4 , including: an arm body 1; a driving component 2, the driving component 2 is used to drive the arm body 1 to move, the driving component 2 includes a driving rod 21 and a support base 22, the driving rod 21 is connected to the support base 22, the support base 22 is connected to the arm body 1, and the driving rod 21 is telescopically arranged; an interactive component 3, the interactive component 3 is arranged on the support base 22, and the interactive component 3 is used to display the parameters of the C-arm.
[0026] With the above-mentioned arrangement, the interactive component 3 is set on the support base 22. When the support base 22 drives the arm body 1 to move, the interactive component 3 moves with the arm body 1. In this way, when the operator adjusts the posture and parameters of the C-arm, the operator can conveniently set or adjust through the interactive component 3 at a position near the bed, especially the parameters related to the movement and posture of the arm body 1, which solves the technical problem in the related technology that the operator needs to frequently move between the near-bed and far-bed positions when adjusting the posture of the C-arm.
[0027] In the C-arm of this embodiment, see Figure 2 The interactive component 3 is rotatably connected to the support base 22; the interactive component 3 is movably connected to the support base 22. In this way, the angle and position of the interactive component 3 on the support base 22 can be adjusted according to the position of the operator, making it more convenient for the operator to adjust the position of the arm body 1 without having to frequently move between the near-bed and far-bed positions.
[0028] In the C-arm of this embodiment, see Figure 2 The C-arm also includes a connecting member 4, one end of which is rotatably connected to the support base 22, and the other end of which is rotatably connected to the interactive component 3. The connecting member 4 is retractable. Thus, before adjusting the angle of the interactive component 3, the connecting member 4 is first extended to move the interactive component 3 away from the support base 22, thereby increasing the range of rotation of the interactive component 3.
[0029] In the C-arm of this embodiment, see Figure 1 The interactive component 3 includes a display 31, which is located on a side of the interactive component 3 away from the connecting component 4. The display 31 is a touch screen and is used to display the parameters of the C-arm. The display 31 is used to interact with the arm body 1. In this way, the display 31 can not only display the status information of the C-arm, but also input control commands through the touch screen. This allows the operator to adjust the C-arm through the display 31 in the near-bed area, solving the technical problem in related technologies that requires the operator to frequently move between the near-bed and far-bed positions when adjusting the C-arm posture.
[0030] In the C-arm of this embodiment, see Figure 3 The interactive component 3 includes indicator lights, which are arranged around the display 31. During three-dimensional scanning with existing X-ray machines, due to the high dose, doctors and operators usually stay away from the operating table and C-arm, and sometimes even leave the operating room. Existing C-arm interactions are usually implemented by pop-up boxes on the screen and emitting warning sounds, making it difficult for operators to see and hear these prompt boxes and prompt sounds outside the operating room, making it difficult for them to promptly understand the current scanning status of the C-arm. Therefore, in this embodiment, indicator lights arranged around the display 31 remind doctors and operators outside the operating room of the C-arm status, making the prompt more obvious and avoiding the risk of not being able to handle the C-arm out of control in a timely manner.
[0031] Preferably, the display 31 is circular, the indicator light is ring-shaped, and the indicator light is arranged around the display 31.
[0032] Example 1:
[0033] See also Figure 4 In this embodiment, the display 31 is a rounded rectangle. The content displayed on the display 31 includes three parts from top to bottom: system status feedback, information display such as movement position, and movement command buttons. An indicator light is arranged around the periphery of the display 31.
[0034] Preferably, the indicator light flashes red when the C-arm alarm occurs, flashes yellow during normal exposure, and flashes white in a circular motion during three-dimensional scanning. When the arm body 1 adjusts its angle, the indicator light rotates synchronously at the same angle.
[0035] In the C-arm of this embodiment, see Figure 1 There are at least two groups of interactive components 3, and the two groups of interactive components 3 are respectively arranged on both sides of the support base 22. In this way, interactive components 3 are arranged on both sides of the support base 22, which can adapt to the use of interactive components 3 in different directions of the C-arm.
[0036] In the C-arm of this embodiment, see Figure 1The arm body 1 is provided with a sliding guide rail on the side close to the drive assembly 2; the support base 22 is provided with a sliding protrusion on the side close to the arm body 1, and the sliding protrusion is movably arranged in the sliding guide rail. In this way, the arm body 1 and the support base 22 are relatively movably connected, and the arm body 1 can rotate around its rotation axis.
[0037] Preferably, the interactive component 3 on the support seat 22 can control the connection status of the arm body 1 and the support seat 22. When the arm body 1 is in use, the brake is set through the interactive component 3 so that the arm body 1 is locked and fixed on the support seat 22. When the arm body 1 needs to be rotated, the brake is unlocked through the interactive component 3 so that the arm body 1 can be rotated to the required angle.
[0038] In the C-arm of this embodiment, see Figure 1 The C-arm further includes a handle 5 for manually adjusting the posture of the arm 1. In this way, when the rotation angle of the arm 1 needs to be manually adjusted, the operator rotates the arm 1 by pulling the handle 5 to achieve the desired angle.
[0039] In the C-arm of this embodiment, see Figure 1 There are multiple handles 5, and multiple handles 5 are arranged at intervals on the arm body 1. In this way, multiple handles 5 are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the arm body 1, so that no matter what angle the arm body 1 is rotated to, the operator can grab the handle 5, which is convenient for adjusting the angle of the arm body 1.
[0040] This embodiment provides an X-ray machine, see Figure 1 , including: a C-arm; a moving component 6, the moving component 6 is connected to the driving component 2, the moving component 6 is movably arranged to drive the arm body 1 to move, and a lifting component 61 is provided on the moving component 6, the lifting component 61 is relatively rotatably connected to the driving component 2, and the lifting component 61 is liftable to drive the arm body 1 to rise or fall.
[0041] With the above-mentioned setting, the C-arm is moved to the operating area through the moving component 6, and then the lifting component 61, the driving component 2 and the arm body 1 are adjusted through the interactive component 3 to adjust the C-arm posture, thereby achieving the effect of adjusting the precise C-arm posture in the near-bed area, and solving the technical problem in the related technology that the operator needs to frequently move between the near-bed and far-bed positions when adjusting the C-arm posture.
