[0024] A water tank 70 installation detection device for shock wave therapeutic instrument, including seat body 10, seat body 10 is equipped with the installation groove 101 for placing water tank 70, and the water tank 70 bottom is equipped with actuating device and the bottom plate 20 that is drivenly connected to the one end of actuating device, and seat body 10 is equipped with photoelectric sensor 30, and the part position of bottom plate 20 protrudes seat body 10 side wall and thus constitutes sensing part 201, and seat body 10 side wall is equipped with the window 102 for sensing part 201 up and down movement, when water tank 70 is installed in installation groove 101, water tank 70 bottom is abutted to the other end of actuating device, to drive bottom plate 20 to move, and then drive sensing part 201 to move into the detection range of photoelectric sensor 30, to detect whether water tank 70 is installed in place.

[0025] Therefore, compared with microswitch, the photoelectric sensor 30 of the utility model is non-contact actuation, and the problem of contact life aging that is prone to occur in mechanical switches does not occur, and the projected light beam of the photoelectric sensor 30 is visible, facilitating adjustment of the position of the detected object, thereby improving the stability of the shock wave therapeutic instrument.

[0026] In the embodiment, the actuating device includes a plurality of swing rods 40, the middle part of each swing rod 40 is pivotally connected to the seat body 10, one end of each swing rod 40 abuts against the bottom surface of the bottom plate 20, and the other end of each swing rod 40 is used for pivotally connecting the bottom part of the water tank 70. Further, the swing rod 40 includes a first connecting rod 401 and a second connecting rod 402, the first connecting rod 401 and the second connecting rod 402 are connected to each other to make the swing rod 40 in a V shape, the bottom part of the installation groove 101 is provided with a pivot joint seat 103, and the connection part of the first connecting rod 401 and the second connecting rod 402 is pivotally connected to the pivot joint seat 103.

[0027] In the embodiment, the bottom plate 20 is provided with a rim plate 202 on both sides, and one end of the swing rod 40 abuts against the bottom surface of the rim plate 202. Further, the first connecting rod 401 abuts against the bottom of the rim plate 202, and the second connecting rod 402 is used for abutting against the bottom of the water tank 70. The weight of the bottom plate 20 is far greater than the thrust force generated by the swing rod 40 due to the self weight, so when the water tank 70 is not loaded into the mounting groove 101, the bottom plate 20 is in the lowest position.

[0028] In the embodiment, a plurality of guide columns 50 are arranged in the mounting groove 101, and the bottom plate 20 is provided with guide holes matched with the guide columns 50, so that the bottom plate 20 moves in the axial direction under the thrust of the swing rod 40, and the highest point of the bottom plate 20 is not higher than the highest point of the guide column 50, avoiding that the bottom plate 20 is thrust by the swing rod 40 to be separated from the guide column 50.

Further, the alarm includes one or several of a buzzer or a warning light, so as to remind the operator to pay attention to the installation of the water tank 70.

[0031] The working principle of the water tank 70 installation detection device for the shock wave therapeutic instrument is as follows:

[0032] When the water tank 70 is not loaded into the mounting groove 101, the sensing portion 201 is located outside the monitoring range of the photoelectric sensor 30, and at this time, the alarm gives an alarm, as shown in FIG. 4. Figure 3 When the water tank 70 is loaded into the mounting groove 101, the bottom of the water tank 70 abuts against the second connecting rod 402, one end of the second connecting rod 402 descends, according to the lever principle, one end of the first connecting rod 401 rises, thereby thrusting the bottom plate 20 to rise, so that the sensing portion 201 enters the detection range of the photoelectric sensor 30, the alarm stops alarming, and the water tank 70 continues to descend until the bottom of the water tank 70 abuts against the limiting portion 104, as shown in FIG. 5.
