AI Technical Summary
During thyroid ultrasound examination, the existing pillow adjustment is unbalanced, causing the examination site to move, affecting the image quality. Furthermore, the physiological structure interferes with the probe movement, leading to imaging failure.
A thyroid detection auxiliary device was designed, comprising a base, a support plate, and a lifting drive mechanism. The support plate is rotatably connected to the base via a rotating shaft and is equipped with an electric push rod drive. The support plate can be raised and lowered for adjustment. Combined with a support pad and protective cloth, it provides stable support and comfort.
It allows for free adjustment of the subject's neck posture, improves ultrasound imaging quality, and enhances comfort and stability during the examination process.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical testing auxiliary equipment, and in particular to a thyroid testing auxiliary device. Background Technology
[0002] During thyroid ultrasound examination, the thyroid gland is imaged by moving a scanning probe. This requires the patient's neck and the area around the thyroid gland to be extended and the angle adjusted to accommodate the probe's movement. Simultaneously, the patient's pelvic bones and jawline should not interfere with the probe's movement. Currently, a pillow is placed under the patient's neck to adjust the neck position. This requires frequent pillow adjustments and can lead to interference from other structures, causing the probe to move unnecessarily. Furthermore, the pillow's uneven weight distribution can cause the examined area to shift during the examination, resulting in image failure. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an auxiliary device for thyroid examination, specifically an auxiliary device that can effectively support the neck position of the person being examined during thyroid ultrasound examination and facilitate posture adjustment.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a thyroid detection auxiliary device, comprising a base, a support plate and a lifting drive mechanism, wherein the lower end of the support plate is rotatably connected to the base, the lifting drive mechanism is disposed on the base and drivenly connected to the upper end of the support plate, a support pad is disposed on the upper surface of the support plate, and a protective cloth is disposed outside the base and connected to the outside of the support pad.
[0005] Specifically, the lower end of the support plate is rotatably connected to the base via a rotating shaft, and the end of the drive rod of the lifting drive mechanism is rotatably connected to the lower surface of the upper end of the support plate.
[0006] Specifically, the lifting drive mechanism uses an electric push rod, and a lifting controller is installed outside the base and connected to the electric push rod drive.
[0007] Specifically, the top of the support pad is provided with a neck support protrusion.
[0008] Specifically, the protective cloth installed outside the base includes a fixed part and an extension part. The fixed part is fixed to the outside of the base, and the extension part is connected above the fixed part and connected to the outside of the support pad.
[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: by rotatably connecting the support plate and the base, and cooperating with the lifting drive mechanism to lift the support plate, the neck height of the subject can be freely adjusted, so that the neck posture of the subject can meet the requirements of ultrasound testing; at the same time, it can provide a stable support effect and improve the quality of ultrasound imaging; in conjunction with the support pad on the support plate and the protective cloth covering the base, the comfort of the subject during the testing process can be further improved. Attached Figure Description
[0010] Appendix Figure 1 This is a side cross-sectional view of a thyroid examination auxiliary device in the embodiment. Detailed Implementation
[0011] Example 1, referring to Figure 1 A thyroid detection auxiliary device includes a base 1, a support plate 2 and a lifting drive mechanism 3. The lower end of the support plate 2 is rotatably connected to the base 1. The lifting drive mechanism 3 is disposed on the base 1 and drivenly connected to the upper end of the support plate 2. A support pad 4 is disposed on the upper surface of the support plate 2. A protective cloth 5 is disposed outside the base 1 and connected to the outside of the support pad 4.
[0012] In this embodiment, the base 1 is used to install the support plate 2 and the lifting drive mechanism 3. The lower end of the support plate 2 is rotatably connected to the base 1, and the lifting drive mechanism 3 is located at the upper end of the base 1 and is drivenly connected to the upper end of the support plate 2. The support plate 2 can be made of rigid materials such as plastic or aluminum alloy to provide good support. The support pad 4 on the support plate 2 can be made of materials such as sponge, memory foam, or other soft pads to improve the comfort of the subject during the examination. It should be noted that the thickness of the support pad 4 should not be too thick in order to provide good support. During use, the subject lies flat on the bed, and the auxiliary device is placed under the subject's back and neck. By driving the upper end of the support plate 2 to rise and fall, the angle of the subject's neck can be adjusted to meet the posture required for thyroid ultrasound examination, providing good support and improving the quality of ultrasound imaging.
[0013] Specifically, in this embodiment, the lower end of the support plate 2 is rotatably connected to the base 1 via a rotating shaft 21, and the end of the drive rod of the lifting drive mechanism 3 is rotatably connected to the lower surface of the upper end of the support plate 2. Preferably, the lifting drive mechanism 3 is an electric push rod, and a lifting controller 31 is provided outside the base 1 and is driven by the electric push rod. The doctor can control the movement of the electric push rod in real time through the lifting controller 31, thereby adjusting the height of the upper end of the support plate 2 as needed. Using an electric push rod allows for stepless adjustment of the height of the upper end of the support plate 2 and provides good support.
[0014] Specifically, the protective cloth 5 covering the base 1 includes a fixing part 51 and an extension part 52. The fixing part 51 is fixed to the outside of the base 1, and the extension part 52 is connected above the fixing part 51 and connected to the outside of the support pad 4. The extension part 52 provides lifting space for the support plate 2 and the support pad 4. It can be made of ordinary cloth, or preferably of elastic cloth.
[0015] In a further preferred embodiment, the top of the support pad 4 is provided with a neck support protrusion 41, which can effectively protect the neck of the person being tested and improve the comfort of the person being tested during the testing process.
[0016] Of course, the above are only preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of application of this utility model. Therefore, any equivalent changes made to the principle of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
