[0025] In the description of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0026] First embodiment:
[0027] A medical finger light, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the device includes a lamp body with a wearing component at its bottom. The lamp body can be worn on a user's finger via the wearing component. A trigger switch is located at the bottom of the lamp body to control the lamp's illumination. The lamp body has connection points to the wearing component on both the front and back sides of the trigger switch. When the finger is bent, the joint presses upward against the trigger switch, thereby turning on the light.
[0028] In this embodiment, the wearing component consists of two wearing rings 4, which are fixed to the bottom of the lamp body and located on the front and rear sides of the trigger switch, respectively. When the lamp body is worn on the user's finger through the wearing component, the finger joint is located between the two wearing rings 4. Therefore, when the user bends the sides of the finger joint, the finger joint lifts upward, while the lamp body remains horizontal, making it easier for the finger joint to contact the trigger switch and resulting in more stable control of the light.
[0029] In this embodiment, the trigger switch is a push-button self-locking switch 5, which is electrically connected to the lamp body. When the user's finger joint is bent, pressing the button of the push-button self-locking switch 5 controls the lamp body's light to turn on and off. The push-button self-locking switch 5 remains in the on state after being pressed once, and returns to the off state after being pressed again, making it easier to use. The push-button self-locking switch 5 uses existing switch button technology, such as a pressure-sensitive pen, and its specific structure will not be described in detail.
[0030] In this embodiment, the trigger switch is located in the middle of the two wearing rings 4, with the finger joint aligned with the trigger switch.
[0031] The wearing ring 4 can be made of one of the following: a metal ring, a plastic ring, Velcro, an elastic band, or a binding strap. The advantage of using a metal or plastic ring is its simple structure and high stability, resulting in more stable wear. The advantage of using Velcro, elastic bands, or binding straps is that the size of the wearing ring 4 is adjustable, accommodating different finger sizes and offering greater applicability. In this embodiment, the wearing ring 4 is specifically a metal or plastic ring.
[0032] The lamp body includes a housing 1, which can be cylindrical or cuboid in shape, and extends along the length of a finger. A light 2 is located at the front end of the housing 1, and a wearing component and a trigger switch are located at the bottom of the housing 1. A power supply 3 is located inside the housing 1, which supplies power to the light 2. The trigger switch controls the connection of the power supply 3; when the trigger switch is turned on, the light 2 illuminates, and when the trigger switch is turned off, the light 2 turns off.
[0033] The push-type self-locking switch 5 is fixed on the inner wall of the housing 1. A notch 10 is provided at the bottom of the housing 1, and the finger joint can press the button of the push-type self-locking switch 5 inside through the notch 10.
[0034] The working process of this embodiment is as follows:
[0035] The doctor inserts their fingers through the two wearing rings 4, preferably using their thumb, so that the two wearing rings 4 are located on the front and back sides of the thumb joint respectively. When the doctor bends their thumb, the thumb joint pushes upward to press the trigger switch to turn on the light 2, illuminating the nostrils or ear canal to observe the lesion. The illuminated area can be moved freely with the doctor's fingers. When the thumb bends again, pressing the trigger switch again will turn off the light 2, which is very convenient to use.
[0036] Second embodiment:
[0037] A medical finger light, such as Figure 3 As shown, the difference from the first embodiment is that the trigger switch consists of a first spring plate 8 and a second spring plate 9 spaced apart, both of which are electrically connected to the lamp body. The second spring plate 9 is located above the first spring plate 8. In the initial state, the first spring plate 8 and the second spring plate 9 are parallel and there is a gap between them, at which time the power supply 3 is in the off state.
[0038] When the user bends their finger joint, the joint presses the first spring plate 8 upwards, causing it to contact the second spring plate 9, thus connecting the power supply 3 and controlling the light on and off. When the finger is straightened, the first spring plate 8 returns to its original position, and the power supply 3 is disconnected. In this embodiment, the trigger switch requires the finger to remain bent for the light 2 to remain on, allowing it to be turned on whenever needed without worrying about forgetting to turn it off.
[0039] Third embodiment:
[0040] A medical finger light, such as Figure 4 As shown, the difference from the first embodiment is that the wearing component is a finger sleeve 6, which is fixed to the bottom of the lamp body. The finger sleeve 6 is connected to the lamp body by two connecting posts 7, which are located on the front and rear sides of the trigger switch, respectively. When the lamp body is worn on the user's finger through the wearing component, the finger joint is located between the two connecting posts 7. This allows the user's finger joint to bend upwards when both sides are bent, while the lamp body remains horizontal, achieving the same effect as the arrangement of the two wearing rings 4 in the first embodiment. Specifically, the trigger switch is located in the middle position of the two connecting posts 7.
[0041] In this embodiment, the wearing component uses a finger sleeve 6, which is more convenient to wear than the first embodiment, and puts less pressure on the fingers when they are bent, making it more comfortable to wear.
[0042] Fourth embodiment:
[0043] A medical finger light, such as Figure 5As shown, the difference from the first embodiment is that the trigger switch is a first spring plate 8 and a second spring plate 9 arranged at intervals (same as the second embodiment), and the wearing component is a finger sleeve 6 (same as the third embodiment).
[0044] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the design concept of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
