Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of detection, and in particular to a bowel sound detector. Background Technology
[0002] Bowel sounds are the sounds produced when peristalsis propels the flow of gas, liquid, and chyme within the intestinal tract. They reflect the motility of the human intestines. By monitoring bowel sounds, patients' gastrointestinal function can be evaluated, and some intestinal diseases can be diagnosed and differentiated.
[0003] Currently, the most common clinical method for detecting bowel sounds is manual detection using a stethoscope. This method requires a high level of professional knowledge and clinical experience from doctors and is prone to misjudgment due to subjective bias. Therefore, some digital bowel sound detection devices have emerged. These devices use probes with sensors, which are attached to the abdomen using adhesive. However, during prolonged testing, this method becomes less secure due to the skin's tendency to sweat, and some patients are allergic to the adhesive. Furthermore, these probes lack structures to shield against external noise, resulting in significant errors during detection, necessitating improvement. Utility Model Content
[0004] The present invention aims to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. Therefore, one objective of the present invention is to provide a bowel sound detector.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a bowel sound detector, characterized in that it comprises:
[0006] The fixing strap is a flexible and breathable strap. The left end of the fixing strap is provided with a first connector, and the right end of the fixing strap is provided with a second connector. The first connector and the second connector are detachably connected to adjust the tightness of the fixing strap.
[0007] The detector host is disposed on the upper surface of the fixing belt;
[0008] A detection probe is disposed on the lower surface of the fixing band and is connected to the detector host.
[0009] The noise reduction cover is an elastic corrugated soft cover, which is placed on the outside of the detection probe and fixedly connected to the fixing strap. The bottom of the noise reduction cover is open.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0011] 1. This device is fixed to the human abdomen to detect bowel sounds, which makes it easy to conduct tests for a longer period of time, thereby more accurately identifying the characteristics of bowel sounds and better classifying and diagnosing diseases such as intestinal obstruction.
[0012] 2. The fixing strap itself is detachable and adjustable, and the tightness can be adjusted according to actual needs. It is also soft and breathable, making it comfortable to use.
[0013] 3. A noise reduction cover is provided outside the detection probe. The noise reduction cover is an elastic corrugated soft cover. When the detection is performed, the fixing strap is wrapped around the abdomen, and the noise reduction cover is squeezed and contracted in close contact with the human body. This does not affect the detection probe's contact with the human body to collect sound signals. At the same time, the noise reduction cover is placed outside the detection probe, so it can isolate some external noise and help improve the accuracy of the detection results.
[0014] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0026] like Figures 1-4 The bowel sound detector shown includes: a fixing strap 1, a detector host 4, a detection probe 5, and a noise reduction cover 6.
[0027] like Figures 1-3As shown, the fixing strap 1 is a flexible breathable strap. The left end of the fixing strap 1 is provided with a first connector, and the right end of the fixing strap 1 is provided with a second connector. The first connector and the second connector are detachably connected to adjust the tightness of the fixing strap 1. The detector host 4 is located on the upper surface of the fixing strap 1. The detection probe 5 is located on the lower surface of the fixing strap 1 and is connected to the detector host 4.
[0028] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the noise reduction cover 6 is an elastic corrugated soft cover. The noise reduction cover 6 is placed on the outside of the detection probe 5 and is fixedly connected to the fixing strap 1. The bottom of the noise reduction cover 6 is open.
[0029] In the specific setup, the first connector is the hook layer 2 of the Velcro, and the second connector is the lint layer 3 of the Velcro. The length of the lint layer 3 is greater than the length of the hook layer 2. The hook layer 2 and the lint layer 3 are detachably bonded. This Velcro connection method is simple, and because the length of the lint layer 3 is greater than the length of the hook layer 2, the tightness of the fixing strap 1 when wrapped around the abdomen can be adjusted by adjusting the bonding position of the hook layer 2, making it flexible and convenient to use.
[0030] The detection probe 5 is equipped with a flexible thin-film acoustic sensor, which is an existing product and is currently widely used in medical examinations. The detector host 4 integrates a Bluetooth communication module and a rechargeable battery. The Bluetooth communication module can communicate with the remote terminal 7 to transmit the detected sound data to the remote terminal 7 for display. Bluetooth communication is existing technology and will not be described in detail.
[0031] To further improve the accuracy of bowel sound detection, such as Figure 3 As shown, multiple detection probes 5 can be set on the fixed belt 1, so as to collect bowel sounds from multiple areas. Each detection probe 5 is equipped with a noise reduction cover 6.
[0032] The noise reduction cover 6 is an elastic corrugated soft cover. During testing, the fixing strap 1 is wrapped around the abdomen, and the noise reduction cover 6 is compressed and contracted against the body, thus not affecting the sound signal acquisition by the detection probe 5 in contact with the body. At the same time, the noise reduction cover 6 is also placed outside the detection probe 5, thus isolating some external noise and helping to improve the accuracy of the test results. In practical applications, the noise reduction cover 6 is a silicone cover.
[0033] In summary, this device has the following characteristics:
[0034] 1. This device is fixed to the human abdomen to detect bowel sounds, which makes it easy to conduct tests for a longer period of time, thereby more accurately identifying the characteristics of bowel sounds and better classifying and diagnosing diseases such as intestinal obstruction.
[0035] 2. The fixing strap 1 itself is detachable and adjustable, and the tightness can be adjusted according to actual needs. It is also soft and breathable, making it comfortable to use.
[0036] 3. A noise reduction cover 6 is provided outside the detection probe 5. The noise reduction cover 6 is an elastic corrugated soft cover. When the detection is performed, the fixing strap 1 is wrapped around the abdomen, and the noise reduction cover 6 is squeezed and contracted in close contact with the human body, so as not to affect the sound signal acquisition of the detection probe 5 in contact with the human body. At the same time, the noise reduction cover 6 is also placed outside the detection probe 5, so it can isolate some external noise and help improve the accuracy of the detection results.
[0037] Although some embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention are all within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
