[0043] The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0044] The mannequin provided in this embodiment can enter a low-power mode when idle, and then switch back to normal working mode when the user uses the mannequin for first aid training. The low-power mode in this embodiment refers to standby mode or hibernation mode.

[0045] For example, when the simulator is idle for a predetermined period of time (for example, the user has not performed any simulated first aid training operations on the simulator), it can enter a low-power mode.

[0046] In standby mode, the main controller and mode switching device are active, while other devices are inactive. In hibernation mode, all devices except the mode switching device are inactive and powered on.

[0047] The simulated human of the present application embodiment will be described in detail below.

[0048] This application provides a mannequin for first aid training, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the mannequin includes a head shell 1 and a torso shell 2, as well as a main controller and a mode switching device 3 installed in the torso shell, wherein the main controller is located inside the torso shell 2.

[0049] A mode switching device is used to output a corresponding switching trigger signal based on the mode switching operation performed by the user.

[0050] The main controller is configured to: switch the mannequin from a low-power mode to a normal working mode according to the switching trigger signal; and, in the normal working mode, if the mannequin remains idle for a preset duration, then switch the mannequin to a low-power mode.

[0051] During simulated first aid training, users can perform simulated first aid procedures on the mannequin. If the main controller does not detect any operation within a preset time, it can automatically control the mannequin to enter a low-power mode. The mode switching device 3 has its mode operation unit located on the outer surface of the torso shell. In low-power mode, if a user operates the mode switching device 3, the mode switching device outputs a switching trigger signal. The main controller then switches the mannequin to normal working mode based on the switching trigger signal.

[0052] Understandably, such as Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the mode switching device 3 includes a switching switch S, the switching operation part of which is disposed on the outer surface of the body housing, and the switching switch S is connected to the WKUP pin (wake-up pin) of the main controller U3 (e.g., the main control microcontroller).

[0053] In low-power mode, the user can operate the switch S. After receiving the switching trigger signal, the WKUP pin of U3 is awakened, and U3 outputs signals to U2 and U1, waking up the tapping detection device and the AED electrode position detection device, thereby switching the mannequin from low-power mode to normal working mode. For example, Figure 1 and Figure 3 The mode switching device 3 shown in the figure has a push-button switch S. In other embodiments, the switch can also be a rocker switch or a touch switch. This embodiment does not limit the specific switch type of the switch.

[0054] When the user operates the toggle switch S, the level signal received by the WKUP pin of the main controller U3 changes (for example, from high level to low level). At this time, the main controller U3 switches the mannequin from low power mode to normal working mode.

[0055] In one embodiment, the mode switching device includes a contact sensor mounted at a designated location on the torso housing.

[0056] The mannequin in this application embodiment can switch its working mode via a mode switching device, thereby reducing power consumption and maintenance costs.

[0057] In the above embodiments, when users use the mannequin for first aid training, they cannot directly determine the mannequin's working mode, which causes inconvenience to the user's operation.

[0058] To address the aforementioned technical problems, it is understood that the embodiments of this application also include a status indicator light 4, such as... Figure 2 As shown, status indicator 4 is connected to the main controller, which is used to implement:

[0059] The status indicator light is changed from a first status to a second status; wherein the first status indicates the normal working mode of the simulator, and the second status indicates the low power mode of the simulator.

[0060] In this embodiment, the status indicator 4 has a first indication state and a second indication state. When the simulated human is in normal working mode, the status indicator 4 displays the first indication state, and when the simulated human is in low power mode, the status indicator 4 displays the second indication state.

[0061] In one embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the status indicator 4 includes a light-emitting diode VD and a selection switch Q. For example, the status indicator VD is a dual-color light-emitting diode, with VD1 and VD2 emitting different colors of light.

[0062] Based on the output of the mode switching device 3, the main controller U3 controls the action of the selection switch Q. When the branch containing VD1 is on, VD displays the first indication state. When the branch containing VD2 is on, VD displays the second indication state.

[0063] For example, a dual-color LED can emit red and green light (e.g., VD1 emits green light, VD2 emits red light). The first indication state can be a solid green light; the second indication state can be a solid red light. When a user performs simulated first aid training, if the status indicator light on the simulator is solid red, it indicates that the simulator is currently in low-power mode. The user can switch the simulator from low-power mode to normal operating mode using the operation mode switch S. Simultaneously, the main controller U3 controls the selection switch Q to change the status indicator light VD from solid red to solid green.

[0064] This application embodiment, by setting a first indication state and a second indication state of the status indicator, helps users to understand the current working mode of the simulator in a timely manner, so as to facilitate further operation.

[0065] Typically, first aid training includes tapping a mannequin to determine if the patient is conscious. However, current technologies lack detection mechanisms for these tapping actions.

[0066] Therefore, it is understood that the mannequin in this application embodiment also includes a tapping detection device, comprising:

[0067] The touch sensor is mounted on the torso shell.

[0068] The tap detection circuit is connected to the touch sensor and is used to output a tap detection signal based on the user's tap trigger operation on the touch sensor.

[0069] The tap detection circuit is connected to the main controller, which is used to output the detection result of the user performing the tap operation based on the tap detection signal.

[0070] Preferably, to facilitate the user's tapping operation, the touch sensor is mounted on the shoulders of the mannequin. Of course, in other embodiments, the touch sensor can be mounted on any position on the mannequin that facilitates the user's tapping operation.

[0071] Understandably, the tap detection device includes a touch sensor, and in one embodiment, the touch sensor is configured as a capacitive touch sensing unit, such as... Figure 3 As shown.

[0072] The tap detection device 8 includes a capacitance detection chip U1 (e.g., JSM8233, TTP223, etc.), a touch sensing terminal T1, and a capacitor C1. The touch sensing terminal T1 is a touch sensing electrode, which is a conductive layer disposed on a printed circuit board. The touch sensing terminal T1 is electrically connected to the input port I of U1. One end of the capacitor C1 is grounded, and the other end of the capacitor C1 is connected to the touch sensing terminal T1. The output port Q of U1 is connected to the main controller U3.

[0073] When a user performs a tapping operation, their hand approaches the touch sensor T1, forming a coupling capacitor C2 between the hand and the touch sensor T1. After detecting this coupling capacitor signal, U1 outputs a capacitance detection signal. U1 sends the capacitance detection signal to the main controller U3, which then outputs the detection result of the user's tapping operation based on the received capacitance detection signal.

[0074] This application embodiment, by setting up a tapping detection device, can detect whether the user performs a tapping operation on the mannequin, making the user training and assessment more comprehensive and the user training effect better.

[0075] Understandably, this embodiment also includes an AED electrode pad position detection device, which includes a position detection circuit and a contact sensing end.

[0076] The contact sensing end is installed on the left and right chest of the torso shell. The contact sensing end is connected to the position detection circuit, which detects the contact of the AED electrode pads and outputs a contact detection signal.

[0077] The main controller is used to output the detection result of whether the AED electrode pads are correctly attached, based on the contact detection signal.

[0078] For example, the AED electrode pad position detection device is a capacitive contact sensing device, such as... Figure 3As shown, the AED electrode position detection device 9 includes a position detection chip U2, a capacitor C3, and a contact sensing terminal T2. U2 is a capacitance detection chip (e.g., JSM8233, TTP223, etc.), and T2 is a touch sensing electrode, which is a conductive layer disposed on a printed circuit board. The contact sensing terminal T2 is electrically connected to the input port I of U2. One end of the capacitor C3 is grounded, and the other end of the capacitor C3 is connected to the contact sensing terminal T2. The output port Q of U2 is connected to the main controller U3.

[0079] When the user places the AED electrode pads against the chest of the mannequin, U2 detects the coupling capacitance signal and outputs a capacitance detection signal. U2 sends the capacitance detection signal to the main controller U3, which outputs the detection result of electrode pad contact based on the received capacitance detection signal.

[0080] Although both the AED electrode pad position detection device and the tapping detection device described in this embodiment output capacitance signals, the capacitance signals output by the two operations are different. When the AED electrode pads are attached and remain stationary, the output capacitance signal remains essentially constant. However, during the tapping operation, because the user's hand is constantly moving between touching and leaving the mannequin, the output capacitance signal fluctuates continuously. Therefore, the main controller U3 can determine the specific type of operation by the user based on this.

[0081] Understandably, the mannequin is also equipped with a breath detection device, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the air blowing detection device in this embodiment includes:

[0082] Pressure sensor 5 is used to detect the blowing pressure during artificial respiration. This pressure sensor is electrically connected to the main controller U3.

[0083] The simulated trachea 6 extends to the mouth and nose of the simulated human and is connected to the mouth and nose of the simulated human to simulate artificial respiration. A pressure sensor 5 is installed at the position where the simulated trachea 6 connects to the mouth and nose.

[0084] Airbag 7 is located in the thoracic cavity of the simulated human torso shell, connected to the simulated trachea 6, and also connected to the inlet of a three-way valve;

[0085] The exhaust port is located on one side of the body shell and is connected to the outlet of the three-way valve.

[0086] When a user performs CPR training, the inlet of the three-way valve is closed, and the user blows air into the simulated mouth. The airbag inflates, and the air pressure sensor 5 can measure the user's blowing pressure. The main controller determines whether the amount of air provided by the user during CPR meets the requirements based on the blowing pressure.

[0087] After completing the CPR training, the inlet of the three-way valve can be opened, and the airbag 7 is connected to the three-way valve. The gas inside the airbag 7 is released from the exhaust port through the three-way valve.

[0088] Understandably, the mannequin is equipped with a wireless communication module, which allows it to connect to the training host computer.

[0089] During simulated first aid operations (e.g., cardiopulmonary resuscitation simulation training), the mannequin can upload the user's simulated first aid operation data (e.g., cardiopulmonary resuscitation data) to the training host via a wireless communication module. The training host then guides the user's first aid actions based on the simulated first aid operation data to achieve better training results.

[0090] Preferably, the wireless communication module in this embodiment can be a Bluetooth module.

[0091] Understandably, the status indicator light in this embodiment may also include a third indication state, wherein the third indication state is used to indicate that the simulator is establishing a network connection.

[0092] When switched to normal operating mode, the wireless communication module activates, and the simulator first searches for a network and establishes a connection with the training host. While the simulator is establishing a network connection, the main controller sends a second control signal, causing the status indicator light to display a third indication state. For example, the third indication state can be displayed as a flashing green light. Once the simulator has established a network connection, the status indicator light displays the second indication state, i.e., the green light remains on.

[0093] This embodiment enables users to understand the current working status of the simulator by setting a third indication state of the status indicator light, which facilitates further operation.

[0094] Understandably, the status indicator light in this embodiment may also include a fourth indication state, which is used to indicate that the battery level of the simulator is lower than a first set value.

[0095] The fourth indicator status is displayed as a flashing red light.

[0096] Understandably, the simulator in this embodiment is also equipped with a buzzer. When the simulator's battery level is lower than a second set value, the main controller controls the buzzer to sound an alarm, wherein the second set value is less than the first set value.

[0097] In this embodiment, the first indication state, the second indication state, the third indication state, and the fourth indication state of the status indicator are only the optimal selection of this application embodiment. In other embodiments, the display states of the first indication state, the second indication state, the third indication state, and the fourth indication state can be selected as needed. This embodiment does not limit the specific circuit connection structure and indication state of the status indicator.

[0098] The above-described embodiments are merely examples of several implementation methods of this application. They are described in a relatively specific and detailed manner, but should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent.

[0099] It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this patent application shall be determined by the appended claims.
