Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of positioning equipment for whole-body scanners, and specifically relates to a positioning device for whole-body scanners. Background Technology
[0002] Existing full-body scanners typically include a flat panel mounted on a frame, which also houses the scanning equipment for the human body. During use, the operator first has the person lie on top of the flat panel. Because people are conscious and the flat panel lacks a restraining mechanism, the person may become tilted or incorrectly positioned. This requires manual adjustment of the person's position and posture. The aforementioned methods, which require manual adjustment and repositioning of various parts of the person's body, are time-consuming and labor-intensive, reducing the efficiency of the device and failing to meet user needs. Therefore, a positioning device for a full-body scanner is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of this, this utility model addresses the shortcomings of the existing technology by providing a positioning device for a whole-body scanner. It not only meets the basic needs of scanning and detecting the human body, but also positions the human body through a positioning mechanism to guide patients, assist them in quickly and accurately lying down in the appropriate position, and provide patients with a reference. This avoids patients moving on their own, which could cause positional deviations and affect examination efficiency and results. It saves time and effort and improves the overall efficiency of the device, thus meeting people's needs.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a positioning device for a full-body scanner, including a base plate, an upper body adjustment mechanism on the right side of the base plate, a lower body adjustment mechanism on the left side, and a detection mechanism on the top of the base plate. The lower body adjustment mechanism includes a slide rail in the middle of the base plate, a slide body inside the slide rail, a V-shaped plate on the top of the slide body, a reinforcing rib in the middle of the V-shaped plate, multiple support rods on the bottom left side of the base plate, a movable plate at the bottom of the slide body, and a through-hole between the two front support rods. The guide rod of the moving plate is connected to the two support rods on the rear side, and a lead screw is provided through the moving plate. A second rotary motor connected to the lead screw is provided on the left side of the left support rod on the rear side. The second rotary motor is connected to the lead screw through a coupling. The detection mechanism includes multiple support rods set on the top of the base plate. A guide rail is provided between the two support rods on the front side and between the two support rods on the rear side. A receiving plate passing through the guide rail is provided on the front and rear sides of the base plate. A top plate is provided on the top of the two receiving plates. The scanner body is provided in the middle of the bottom of the top plate.
[0005] As a further improvement of this utility model, the upper body adjustment mechanism includes sliding grooves on the front and rear sides of the top of the base plate, with sliding plates respectively installed inside the two sliding grooves, and connecting plates respectively installed on the two sliding plates. Multiple support plates are installed on the bottom right side of the base plate, and lead screws passing through the connecting plates are respectively installed between the two front support plates and between the two rear support plates. A first rotary motor connected to the lead screw is installed at the left end of the left support plate, and the first rotary motor is connected to the lead screw through a coupling.
[0006] A switch is installed on the front side of the base plate, which is electrically connected to the first rotary motor and the second rotary motor. Support legs are installed at the four corners of the bottom of the base plate. Mounting plates are installed at the bottom of the four support legs. Rollers are installed at the bottom of the four mounting plates. Adjustment plates are installed on the sides of the four support legs. Screws are installed on the four adjustment plates. Support feet are installed at the bottom of the four screws.
[0007] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0008] Firstly, this design includes a first rotary motor. The rotation of the first rotary motor drives the lead screw to rotate, which in turn moves the connecting plate. The movement of the connecting plate then moves the sliding plate located inside the slide groove, thereby assisting in the positioning of the upper body of the human body and allowing people to know where it should be placed.
[0009] Secondly, this design includes a second rotary motor. The rotation of the second rotary motor drives the lead screw to rotate, which in turn drives the moving plate to move. Simultaneously, the moving plate moves along the guide rod, which in turn drives the sliding body inside the slide to move. The movement of the sliding body then drives the V-shaped plate to move, thereby assisting in the positioning of the lower body of the human body and determining its correct placement.
[0010] Thirdly, this design includes a guide rail that moves the receiving plate, which in turn moves the top plate, thereby moving the scanner body to scan the human body on the top of the base plate.
[0011] Fourth, this design includes multiple rollers, which allow the device to move, and the support feet facilitate the overall fixation of the equipment. Attached Figure Description

[0022] How to use this utility model:
[0023] When the staff uses the equipment, they first have the person to be tested lie on top of the base plate 101 with both arms placed on the slide plate 103. Then, the first rotary motor 107 is started. The rotation of the first rotary motor 107 drives the lead screw 106 to rotate. The rotation of the lead screw 106 drives the connecting plate 104 to move. The movement of the connecting plate 104 drives the slide plate 103, which is set inside the slide groove 102, to move, so that the person knows the position of the upper body, so that the upper body of the person is exactly in the middle of the base plate 101.
[0024] At this time, the staff starts the second rotary motor 116. The rotation of the second rotary motor 116 drives the lead screw 115 to rotate. The rotation of the lead screw 115 drives the moving plate 112 to move. At the same time, the moving plate 112 moves along the guide rod 114. The movement of the moving plate 112 drives the sliding body 109 inside the slide rail 108 to move. The movement of the sliding body 109 drives the V-shaped plate 110 to move, so that people know where the lower body should be placed, so that the lower body of the human body is exactly in the middle of the base plate 101.
[0025] The rotation of the output shafts of the first rotary motor 107 and the second rotary motor 116 causes the human body to be neatly positioned on the top of the base plate 101, facilitating the detection of the person's body.
[0026] At this time, the staff moves the guide rail 118 to move the receiving plate 119. The movement of the receiving plate 119 causes the top plate 120 to move, thereby moving the scanner body 201 to scan the human body on the top of the base plate 101.
