TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of monitoring equipment, in particular to a postoperative lymphedema dynamic monitoring equipment. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the modern rehabilitation management after tumor treatment, scientific monitoring and management of postoperative lymphedema are particularly important. Currently, postoperative lymphedema measurement usually adopts soft tape measurement, handwritten record after measurement or computer input management by medical staff, and it is difficult to arrange and analyze long-term data, and the feedback to the rehabilitation patient can only be given after analysis by medical staff, resulting in delayed monitoring information feedback and low patient self-participation in rehabilitation management. There is a lack of a special postoperative lymphedema dynamic monitoring equipment for rehabilitation patients in the field, which needs to be solved urgently. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL
[0003] Therefore, in the embodiments of the present application, a postoperative lymphedema dynamic monitoring equipment is provided, which can improve the convenience of postoperative lymphedema monitoring and the participation of patients, and is helpful to improve the postoperative rehabilitation effect.
[0004] Therefore, in the embodiments of the present application, the following technical solutions are adopted:
[0005] A postoperative lymphedema dynamic monitoring equipment, comprising: a shell, an accommodating space is formed in the inside of the shell; an electronic measuring tape, installed in the accommodating space of the shell, the electronic measuring tape can be worn out and rolled up in the inside of the shell, for data measurement on a human body part; a processing module, installed in the accommodating space of the shell, the processing module is used for storing the measurement data obtained by the electronic measuring tape; an electronic display screen, installed on the shell, the electronic display screen is connected with the processing module, and is used for displaying the measurement data; and a communication module, installed on the shell, the communication module is electrically connected with the processing module, and is used for sending the measurement data to a terminal device, to perform postoperative lymphedema dynamic monitoring.
[0006] In this embodiment, the electronic measuring tape can be used by the rehabilitation patient to quickly collect data such as circumference and length according to the needs of the postoperative arm, thigh and other parts by using a one-handed operation mode, and the processing module can automatically record and store the measured data. At the same time, the processing module can also analyze a plurality of monitoring data to obtain the change trend of the monitoring data, and perform data anomaly analysis and early warning according to the change trend. Optionally, the processing module can also realize functions such as three-dimensional simulation of shape, volume measurement, abnormal change analysis of shape, and rehabilitation suggestion pushing. Moreover, the monitoring equipment is equipped with a communication module, which can upload the measurement data to a terminal device, and can select whether to upload to a postoperative lymphedema monitoring center according to the user's will.
[0007] When the monitoring device is applied, the electronic measuring ruler measures the size of the patient's body part in the shell in a retractable manner to obtain data in real time. The processing module receives and stores the measurement data, and then directly displays the current measurement result to the patient through the electronic display screen, thereby improving the immediacy and visibility of the information. The communication module sends the data to the terminal device, allowing medical staff and patients to monitor changes and analyze them in real time, thereby reducing the delay and errors in traditional methods and improving patient self-management and participation. Such a device not only is convenient and efficient, but also can greatly improve the postoperative rehabilitation effect.
[0008] As an implementable embodiment, the monitoring device further comprises an audio module for voice broadcasting of the measurement data.
[0009] In this embodiment, the audio module can broadcast the measurement result in real time, so that the user can quickly obtain information without looking at the screen or other display device. For users with visual impairment or inconvenience to view the screen, voice broadcasting provides a more friendly interaction mode, enabling them to easily obtain measurement data, especially in situations requiring quick judgment, thereby improving the popularity and convenience of the device. In addition, the audio module can guide the user to complete the measurement of each part according to the voice prompt, which can reduce errors that may occur when the user views and operates the device, and reduce misoperation. By integrating the audio module into the monitoring device, the functionality and user experience of the device can be significantly improved, enabling it to perform better in various use environments and situations.
[0010] As an implementable embodiment, the electronic measuring ruler is a flexible standard ruler tape.
[0011] In this embodiment, the flexible ruler tape can bend and adapt to irregular measurement surfaces, closely conforming to the shape of the measured object, making it more flexible when measuring complex shapes or curved surfaces, reducing measurement errors, and thus improving the accuracy of the measurement. Moreover, the flexible ruler tape usually has a soft surface, which is easier to operate and less likely to cause injury or discomfort, especially when frequent operation is required, which is particularly prominent and has high operation comfort. The flexible ruler tape is usually light and can be easily rolled up for storage, making it convenient to carry and use, especially suitable for mobile measurement applications.
[0012] Optionally, the material of the electronic measuring ruler comprises polyurethane or polyvinyl chloride. Polyurethane (PU): has good flexibility, wear resistance and chemical corrosion resistance, suitable for various measurement environments. PVC (polyvinyl chloride): economical and practical, has a certain flexibility and durability, has good durability and durability, and is widely used in daily measurement tools.
[0013] As an implementable embodiment, a switch button is provided on the shell.
[0014] In this embodiment, the user can quickly enable or disable the device through the switch button, and the operation is more efficient.
[0015] As an implementable embodiment, the communication module is a Bluetooth communication module, and a Bluetooth button is arranged on the shell.
[0016] In this embodiment, the Bluetooth communication module enables data transmission without physical connection, avoiding the cumbersome of traditional wired connection and improving the flexibility and convenience of device use. The Bluetooth module can quickly transmit measurement data to terminal devices (such as mobile phones or computers), allowing patients and medical staff to view data in real time and adjust rehabilitation programs in a timely manner. Moreover, by sending data to smart devices (such as smartphones or tablets) through Bluetooth, professional applications can be used for data storage, analysis, and visualization, helping patients and medical staff better track changes in their condition. Medical staff can remotely monitor the progress of patients' rehabilitation and provide guidance and feedback in a timely manner, further improving rehabilitation effectiveness. The arrangement of the Bluetooth button makes the device pairing and data transmission operation more intuitive and simple. Users only need to press the button to start Bluetooth connection, reducing complex operation steps. Bluetooth technology has high popularity, and users (whether patients or medical staff) are more familiar with Bluetooth connection operations, with low learning costs. Patients can view measurement results and historical data through their own terminal devices, increasing their sense of participation and control in the rehabilitation process and improving their enthusiasm for self-management.
[0017] As an implementable embodiment, one side of the shell is provided with a measurement part, which is arranged in an arc shape.
[0018] In this embodiment, the arc-shaped measurement part is more in line with the natural curves of the human body, especially in parts that require precise contact, such as limbs, joints, or other curved areas (such as arms and thighs). This can reduce skin pressure and discomfort during measurement, improving user comfort. At the same time, the arc-shaped measurement part can closely fit the target area, combined with a flexible electronic measuring tape, allowing users to use one-handed operation to quickly collect data such as circumference and length. This helps improve measurement accuracy and consistency, reducing data errors caused by insufficient device-skin contact. The arc-shaped design generally has a modern aesthetic, which can enhance the overall appearance of the device and make it more attractive and visually appealing.

[0025] As an implementable embodiment, one side of the shell is provided with a tape locking button, which is used to lock the clamping column when the clamping column is inserted into the clamping groove.
[0026] In this embodiment, locking the clamping column with the locking button can effectively reduce the shaking and displacement of the end, maintain the stability and accuracy of the measurement, and ensure the consistency of the measurement results.
[0027] As an implementable embodiment, the tape locking button is a self-locking button, the end of the tape locking button extending into the shell is provided with a locking hook, and the locking hook can press on the clamping column after the tape locking button is pressed to self-lock, for locking the electronic measuring ruler.
[0028] In this embodiment, the design of the self-locking button and the locking hook makes the locking process quick and simple, and the user can complete the locking in a short time, improving the operation efficiency. The locking hook can press on the clamping column after the button is pressed, providing strong locking and avoiding the displacement of the end caused by vibration or external force, thereby improving the stability of the measurement.
[0029] As an implementable embodiment, one side of the shell is also provided with a tape unlocking button, which is used to tighten the electronic measuring ruler when pressed.
[0030] In this embodiment, the pressing of the tape unlocking button can quickly adjust the tightness of the electronic measuring tape, so that the electronic measuring tape can closely fit the human body measurement part, and the measurement efficiency and convenience of data measurement are improved.
[0031] As an implementable embodiment, the end of the housing where the tape unlocking button extends into is provided with an extension plate, a stop plate is vertically installed at the end of the extension plate away from the tape unlocking button, one side of the stop plate is provided with a fixed plate used in cooperation with the stop plate, the fixed plate is installed on the housing, and a strip-shaped channel for the electronic measuring tape to pass through is formed between the fixed plate and the stop plate; the stop plate can adjust the cross-sectional size of the strip-shaped channel to lock or unlock the electronic measuring tape by following the movement of the tape unlocking button; the side of the stop plate away from the fixed plate is provided with a compression spring, and the side of the compression spring away from the stop plate is provided with a mounting plate, and the compression spring provides a force for the stop plate to move towards the fixed plate.
[0032] In this embodiment, the adjustment mechanism of the stop plate can accurately control the cross-sectional size of the strip-shaped channel, ensure the stable locking or unlocking of the electronic measuring tape, and increase the accuracy of operation. The compression spring provides stable force support to ensure that the stop plate always maintains effective compression strength, thereby enhancing the reliability of locking.
[0033] As an implementable embodiment, the middle part of the accommodating space of the housing is provided with a fixed shaft, a winding drum is sleeved on the fixed shaft, a volute spring is arranged between the winding drum and the fixed shaft, and the volute spring provides a restoring force for the winding drum to return to the initial position when the winding drum rotates relative to the fixed shaft; one end of the electronic measuring tape is fixed to the outer peripheral wall of the winding drum, and the electronic measuring tape can be wound on the winding drum.
[0034] In this embodiment, the restoring force provided by the volute spring can ensure that the winding drum automatically returns to the initial position after use, so that the electronic measuring tape can be automatically recovered on the winding drum after being pulled out of the housing, thereby improving the convenience and maintainability of use.
[0035] As an implementable embodiment, the two ends of the winding drum are each provided with a limiting storage ring, and the limiting storage ring and the winding drum are connected to each other through a plurality of connecting rods; the space between the two limiting storage rings constitutes a storage space for the electronic measuring tape.
[0036] In this embodiment, the limiting storage ring can reduce the possibility of loosening and entanglement of the tape of the electronic measuring tape during winding, thereby improving the stability of the equipment during measurement.
[0037] As an implementable embodiment, a reversible counter is installed in the shell, and a plurality of magnetic scale bars are arranged on the electronic measuring tape at equal intervals along the length direction of the electronic measuring tape, and the corresponding magnetic scale bars can pass through the detection area of the probe of the reversible counter in sequence during the stretching and winding of the electronic measuring tape.
[0038] In this embodiment, the reversible counter cooperates with the magnetic scale bars to accurately record the length change of the electronic measuring tape, and the measurement data can be accurately obtained during the stretching and winding, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the measurement results.
[0039] As an implementable embodiment, a guide is arranged at the through hole, the guide is formed with a strip-shaped through hole through which the electronic measuring tape passes, the strip-shaped through hole is located on the same straight line as the strip-shaped channel, and the reversible counter is located between the strip-shaped through hole and the strip-shaped channel, so that the strip-shaped through hole and the strip-shaped channel jointly constrain the part of the electronic measuring tape in the reversible counter probe detection area to be in a straightened state, thereby facilitating the reading of the length data of the electronic measuring tape stretched out of the shell.
[0040] In summary, the monitoring device can be specially used for postoperative rehabilitation patients to realize self-help dynamic measurement of lymphedema data, change trend analysis, abnormal alarm and timely acquisition of rehabilitation suggestions, thereby improving the convenience of postoperative lymphedema monitoring, the participation of patients, and helping to improve the postoperative rehabilitation effect.

[0052] Lymphedema is caused by lymphatic circulation disorders, which cause lymphatic fluid to accumulate in the interstitial space, leading to a condition of fluid accumulation in the body tissue. It is commonly found in arms, legs or other parts, and the main manifestations include some pathological changes such as tissue edema, chronic inflammation and tissue fibrosis, and symptoms include swelling, heaviness, pain or tightness, which may affect the activity and quality of life in severe cases. Lymphedema is usually caused by the following reasons: 1. Primary lymphedema: usually caused by congenital lymphatic system development. 2. Secondary lymphedema: often caused by factors such as trauma, infection, surgical resection (such as resection of lymph nodes during cancer surgery) or radiotherapy affecting the lymphatic system.
[0053] The treatment methods of lymphedema usually include physical therapy (such as lymphatic drainage massage), compression therapy, skin care, and in some cases, the use of drugs or surgical treatment. Among them, early diagnosis and intervention after surgery can effectively control the symptoms of lymphedema and prevent the disease from worsening. At present, the early detection of lymphedema by patients mainly depends on symptoms and the comparison of the circumference of the affected limb and the circumference of the healthy limb. The main auxiliary medical examination methods include B-ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, and human body composition analyzer. For example, in related operations, the thickness of the arms and legs of postoperative patients is usually measured by using a flexible ruler, winding the flexible ruler around the corresponding measurement part, and reading the scale. However, after measurement, handwritten records or computer input management by medical staff are difficult to analyze long-term data, and the feedback to the rehabilitation patient can only be given after analysis by medical staff, resulting in delayed monitoring information feedback and low patient self-participation in rehabilitation management. There is a lack of special equipment for dynamic monitoring of postoperative lymphedema for self-help of rehabilitation patients in the field, which needs to be solved urgently.
[0054] Therefore, the embodiment of the present application discloses a postoperative lymphedema dynamic monitoring device. The monitoring device can be specially used for postoperative rehabilitation patients to realize dynamic measurement of lymphedema data, trend analysis, abnormal alarm, and timely acquisition of rehabilitation suggestions, thereby improving the convenience of postoperative lymphedema monitoring, the participation of patients, and the rehabilitation effect after surgery.
[0055] Figure 1 A perspective structural schematic diagram of a postoperative lymphedema dynamic monitoring device provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown. Figure 2 A perspective structural schematic diagram of a postoperative lymphedema dynamic monitoring device provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown. Figure 1 A top view of the monitoring device is shown. As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the monitoring device comprises a shell 1 and an electronic measuring ruler 2 wound in the internal accommodation space of the shell 1. The shell 1 is circular as a whole, and the partial circumferential side wall of the shell 1 is inwardly recessed to form an arc-shaped measurement part 11, which can more closely fit the human measurement part. The opposite sides of the measurement part 11 are respectively provided with a through hole 12 and a clamping groove 13. The through hole 12 is used for the electronic measuring ruler 2 to pass out of the shell 1, and the clamping groove 13 is used for accommodating and fixing the end of the electronic measuring ruler 2 passing out of the shell 1.
[0056] Continuing to refer to Figure 1 , the end of the electronic measuring ruler 2 passing out of the shell 1 is fixedly connected with a clamping column 21, which facilitates the user to pull out the electronic measuring ruler 2, and a clamping hole 14 for inserting the clamping column 21 is arranged in the clamping groove 13. The clamping hole 14 and the clamping column 21 are clamped and matched, which can reduce the possibility of the clamping column 21 slipping out of the clamping groove 13, so that the measurement process is more stable.
[0057] Optionally, a first magnet (not shown) is installed inside the bayonet 14, and a second magnet 211 is provided at the end of the locking post 21 to magnetically attract the first magnet. Both the first magnet and the second magnet 211 are neodymium iron boron magnets. The magnetic attraction design makes the locking and unlocking process simpler. The user only needs to bring the locking post 21 close to the bayonet 14, and the magnet will automatically align and attract, without any additional operation steps, making it easier to lock the end of the measuring scale in the slot 13. In one embodiment, in order to make the locking of the locking post 21 in the bayonet 14 more stable, a scale locking button 3 is installed on the outer circumferential side wall of the housing 1. The scale locking button 3 is a self-locking button, which is used to lock the locking post 21 when it is embedded in the slot 13.
[0058] It should be noted that after the electronic measuring ruler 2 is pulled out of the housing 1, it tends to automatically retract into the housing 1 under the action of the restoring force inside the housing 1. It should be understood that the restoring force can be generated by the spiral spring 4 (see here). Figure 4 Therefore, a tape release button 5 is also provided on one side of the housing 1. When the tape release button 5 is in the normal state, it can brake the pulled-out electronic measuring scale 2, preventing the electronic measuring scale 2 from retracting into the housing 1 under the action of restoring force, making it convenient for the user to snap the locking post 21 into the slot 13. When the tape release button 5 is pressed, it can release the brake on the electronic measuring scale 2, which is used to tighten the electronic measuring scale 2, so that the electronic measuring scale 2 can automatically retract under the action of restoring force. After the electronic measuring scale 2 is tightened, it fits the human body measurement part more closely, making the data measurement more accurate.
[0059] In one embodiment, an electronic display screen 6 is installed in the middle of the housing 1 to display measurement data. When measuring a part of the human body, the measuring part 11 is placed against the body part being measured (e.g., the arm, thigh, etc.). After the tape of the electronic measuring ruler 2 is wrapped around the corresponding measuring part once, the locking pin 21 can be inserted into the locking slot 14 of the locking groove 13. Then, the tape unlocking button 5 is pressed, which releases the energy of the spiral spring 4 and promotes the winding of the tape. Thus, the tape of the electronic measuring ruler 2 can fit tightly against the measuring part, resulting in higher accuracy. It can be operated independently by the person being measured, which is simple and convenient. The person being measured can directly obtain the measurement quantity from the electronic display screen 6, which is simple and convenient.
[0060] Figure 3 It shows Figure 1 A top view of the monitoring equipment. Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the internal structure of the monitoring equipment is shown. (For example...) Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, a battery compartment 7 is installed in the middle of the opening of the accommodating space formed inside the shell 1, and a button cell 71 for powering the whole monitoring device is installed in the battery compartment 7, and the button cell 71 is installed with the + pole upward in the battery compartment 7. Moreover, a back plate 15 is covered on the opening of the accommodating space formed inside the shell 1, and the back plate 15 is fixed on the shell 1 by fasteners 161-164, thereby fixing the button cell 71 inside the battery compartment 7 and protecting the components installed inside the shell 1. Optionally, the fasteners 161-164 are bolts. Figure 1 In this embodiment, a switch button 8 is installed on the shell 1, and the switch button 8 is short-pressed to turn on the device and long-pressed to turn off the device.
[0061] Referring to Figure 4 Referring to Figure 1 In the accommodating space of the shell 1, a processing module 91, a communication module 92, an audio module 93 and a reversible counter 94 are also installed and electrically connected to each other. The reversible counter 94 can obtain the measurement data of the electronic measuring scale 2 and send the obtained measurement data to the processing module 91. It should be noted that the processing module 91 can be the nerve center and command center of the monitoring device. The processing module 91 can generate operation control signals according to the instruction operation code and the timing signal to complete the control of fetching and executing instructions. The processing module 91 can also be provided with a memory for storing instructions and data. In some embodiments, the memory in the processing module 91 is a cache memory. The memory can save the instructions or data that have just been used or are used repeatedly by the processing module 91. In this embodiment, the processing module 91 is used to store the measurement data obtained by the electronic measuring scale 2 and send the measurement data to the electronic display screen 6 for display. Optionally, the processing module 91 can also send the measurement data to the audio module 93, and the audio module 93 can be a loudspeaker to broadcast the specific values by the audio module 93.
[0062] It is worth mentioning that the monitoring device can also be connected to a terminal device through the communication module 92, so as to facilitate the user to send the measurement data to the terminal device for dynamic monitoring of lymphedema. Optionally, the communication module 92 is a Bluetooth communication module 92, and a Bluetooth button 921 for turning on and off the Bluetooth communication module 92 is arranged on the shell 1. In one embodiment, the terminal device can be a smart phone terminal. In other embodiments, the terminal device can also be a tablet computer, a notebook computer, a desktop computer, etc., but is not limited thereto, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited herein.
[0063] The processing module 91 is also installed with program instructions that can realize functions such as trend analysis of monitoring data, data anomaly analysis and early warning, three-dimensional simulation of shape, volume measurement, shape anomaly change analysis, rehabilitation suggestion pushing, and the like. The program instructions are displayed on the electronic display screen 6 as a shape change monitoring and analysis program APP. Similarly, the APP installed on the terminal device includes a client of the monitoring device, such as the shape change monitoring and analysis program APP. After the monitoring device collects data, the user operates the shape change monitoring and analysis program APP to synchronize the data to the terminal device for subsequent data management and analysis.
[0064] In one embodiment, the shape change monitoring and analysis program APP displays the dynamic changes of each measurement position in a trend line manner according to the stored historical monitoring data and the currently measured data, compares and analyzes the measurement differences before and after, extracts abnormal change information, and gives warnings, guidance suggestions, and follow-up suggestions, and the like, for abnormal changes. For example, the shape change monitoring and analysis program APP can recommend a dynamic monitoring scheme according to the postoperative lymphedema monitoring needs, provide operation illustrations and voice prompts, guide the user to complete the measurement of each part by himself according to the prompts, and automatically store, upload, and manage the measurement data. In addition, the shape change monitoring and analysis program APP can also calculate the surface area and volume of the monitoring position by using three-dimensional simulation and measurement technology according to the measurement data collected according to the standard prompts and in combination with the limb features such as arms and thighs, display the historical changes of the surface area and volume in a trend line manner, and prompt abnormal changes.
[0065] In another embodiment, the shape change monitoring and analysis program APP can also be set by the user to upload the monitoring data to a postoperative lymphedema monitoring center or not. If set to upload, the data will be automatically uploaded to the monitoring center after each self-measurement of the user is completed. The postoperative lymphedema monitoring center software platform can realize three-dimensional visualization of the postoperative monitoring position by using three-dimensional simulation technology according to the uploaded standard measurement data in combination with the rehabilitation patient medical record data, help medical staff make scientific rehabilitation suggestions by combining the trend line of the measurement data of each monitoring position, the historical change trend line of the surface area and volume, and realize three-dimensional visualization analysis and monitoring of the postoperative lymphedema monitoring center software platform. Medical staff can decide whether to make a follow-up visit and provide rehabilitation suggestions according to the monitoring results.
[0066] Continuing to refer to Figure 4The end of the tape locking button 3 extending into the inside of the shell 1 is provided with a locking hook 31, which can be pressed on the clamping column 21 after the tape locking button 3 is pressed to be self-locked, and is used to lock the end of the electronic measuring tape 2. For example, the locking hook 31 is provided in an L-shaped manner, the part of the locking hook 31 abutting the shell 1 is consistent with the curvature of the shell 1, and the end of the locking hook 31 facing the clamping groove 13 can close the opening of the clamping groove 13 following the pressing part of the tape locking button 3, thereby further locking the clamping column 21 after the clamping column 21 is clamped into the clamping hole 14, so as to reduce the possibility of the clamping column 21 slipping out of the clamping groove 13. It should be understood that the tape locking button 3 is a self-locking button, which will be self-locked and cannot rebound when the tape locking button 3 is pressed for the first time, and will return to the initial unpressed state when the tape locking button 3 is pressed again. The self-locking button is realized by the prior art, which will not be described here.

Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 1, the end of the tape locking button 3 extending into the inside of the shell 1 is provided with a locking hook 31, which can be pressed on the clamping column 21 after the tape locking button 3 is pressed to be self-locked, and is used to lock the end of the electronic measuring tape 2.

[0068] In one embodiment, in order to reduce the restriction of the stop plate 52 on the electronic measuring tape 2, a circular arc chamfer is arranged at the portion of the stop plate 52 that first contacts the electronic measuring tape 2, and a rotating roller 56 is installed at the circular arc chamfer. The rotating roller 56 is arranged perpendicularly to the horizontal side of the shell 1 and is rotatably installed on the stop plate 52. As shown in Figure 4 illustrated, the electronic measuring tape 2 is inclined into the strip-shaped passage between the stop plate 52 and the fixed plate 53. When the user pulls the electronic measuring tape 2, the stop plate 52 will move a certain distance towards the mounting plate 55 under the action of the pulling force, at which time the cross section of the strip-shaped passage is increased, and the stop plate 52 reduces the braking effect on the electronic measuring tape 2. At the same time, the rotation of the rotating roller 56 reduces the frictional resistance between the electronic measuring tape 2 and the stop plate 52, so that the user can easily pull the electronic measuring tape 2 out of the shell 1 through the through hole 12. When the user no longer pulls the electronic measuring tape 2, the electronic measuring tape 2 is only subjected to the restoring force stored by the turbine spring, at which time the restoring force is not enough to maintain the position of the stop plate 52. The stop plate 52 will return to the initial state under the pre-tightening force of the compression spring 54, the cross section of the strip-shaped passage is reduced, the braking of the electronic measuring tape 2 is achieved, and the electronic measuring tape 2 cannot be retracted into the shell 1, thereby facilitating the subsequent measurement operation of the user.
[0069] Alternatively, the tape unlocking button 5 can be a self-locking button. The user can press the tape unlocking button 5 when the electronic measuring tape 2 needs to be pulled out, so that the stop plate 52 moves away from the fixed plate 53, so that the stop plate 52 loses the braking of the electronic measuring tape 2. At this time, the user only needs to overcome the restoring force of the turbine spring to pull the electronic measuring tape 2 out of the shell 1. After pulling out the electronic measuring tape 2, press the tape unlocking button 5 again to restore the original position of the tape unlocking button 5, so that the stop plate 52 abuts against the electronic measuring tape 2 to complete the braking of the electronic measuring tape 2. It should be noted that the electronic measuring tape 2 is a flexible standard tape, and the preparation material thereof includes any one of polyurethane and polyvinyl chloride, which is not limited in the present application.
[0070] Please continue to refer to Figure 4The middle part of the accommodating space of the shell 1 is provided with a fixed shaft 17, and a winding drum 18 is sleeved on the fixed shaft 17. A volute spring 4 is arranged between the winding drum 18 and the fixed shaft 17. When the winding drum 18 rotates relative to the fixed shaft 17, the volute spring 4 stores energy to provide a restoring force for the winding drum 18 to return to the initial position. One end of the electronic measuring tape 2 is fixed on the outer peripheral wall of the winding drum 18, and the other end penetrates out of the shell 1. The electronic measuring tape 2 can be wound on the winding drum 18. Optionally, in order to reduce the possibility of loosening and entanglement of the tape of the electronic measuring tape 2 during winding, a limiting storage ring 181 is fixed at each end of the winding drum 18. The limiting storage ring 181 and the winding drum 18 are connected with each other through a plurality of connecting rods 182 extending along the radial direction of the limiting storage ring 181. One end of the connecting rod 182 is fixed on the limiting storage ring 181, and the other end is fixed on the winding drum 18. The space between the two limiting storage rings 181 constitutes a storage space of the electronic measuring tape 2, so as to facilitate storage of the electronic measuring tape 2.
[0071] For example, a plurality of magnetic scale bars (not shown in the figure) are arranged on the electronic measuring tape 2 at equal intervals along the length direction of the electronic measuring tape 2. During the stretching process and the winding process of the electronic measuring tape 2, the corresponding magnetic scale bars can pass through the detection area of the probe of the reversible counter 94 in sequence. The reversible counter 94 can count forward and backward, for example, the count of the magnetic scale bars of the electronic measuring tape 2 passing through the detection area of the probe of the reversible counter 94 during the stretching process is forward count, and the count of the magnetic scale bars of the electronic measuring tape 2 passing through the detection area of the probe of the reversible counter 94 during the winding process is backward count.
[0072] As shown in Figure 4 In a specific embodiment, a guide 19 is arranged at the penetrating hole 12. The guide 19 is formed with a strip-shaped penetrating hole through which the electronic measuring tape 2 passes. The strip-shaped penetrating hole is located on the same straight line as the strip-shaped channel. The reversible counter 94 is located between the strip-shaped penetrating hole and the strip-shaped channel, so that the strip-shaped penetrating hole and the strip-shaped channel jointly constrain the part of the electronic measuring tape 2 in the straightened state in the detection area of the probe of the reversible counter 94, and facilitate reading of the length data of the electronic measuring tape 2 extending out of the shell 1.
[0073] Since the reversible counter 94 is electrically connected with the processing module 91, the electronic display screen 6 and the audio module 93, the reversible counter 94 sends the statistical information representing the number of magnetic scale bars passing through the detection area of the probe to the processing module 91, and the processing module 91 calculates the extension length of the electronic measuring ruler 2 according to the statistical information and sends it to the electronic display screen 6 for numerical display and voice broadcast through the audio module 93. For example, after the electronic measuring ruler 2 is stretched around the measurement site (for example, the arm), the clamping column 21 is inserted into the card slot 14, and the reversible counter 94 calculates the number of magnetic scale bars passing through the detection area of the probe as 30 during this process; then press the ruler tape unlocking button 5 to release the energy of the spiral spring 4 and promote the rotation of the winding drum 18 clockwise to wind the electronic measuring ruler 2, and the electronic measuring ruler 2 is close to the arm, and the reversible counter 94 calculates the number of magnetic scale bars passing through the detection area of the probe as -5 during this process, then the reversible counter 94 confirms that the number of magnetic scale bars passing through the detection area of the probe is 25, and sends the statistical information to the processing module 91, and the processing module 91 can calculate the extension length of the electronic measuring ruler 2 as 25 cm according to the statistical information 25, and sends the calculation result to the electronic display screen 6, and the electronic display screen 6 displays the calculation value of the extension length of the electronic measuring ruler 2. The measured person can directly obtain the measurement quantity from the electronic display screen 6, which is simple and convenient. It is worth mentioning that the measurement data is the extension length of the electronic measuring ruler 2 plus the arc length of the measurement part, for example, the extension length of the electronic measuring ruler 2 is 25 cm, and the arc length of the measurement part is 8 cm, then the circumference of the measurement site is 33 cm.
