Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of scintillator detector technology, and more specifically, to a scintillator detector based on 3D printing. Background Technology
[0002] A scintillator detector is an instrument that uses the flashes of light produced by ionizing radiation in certain substances for detection. A 3D-printed scintillator detector is a high-performance radiation detection device manufactured using 3D printing technology. This technology allows for the printing of scintillators from plastic substrates, luminescent materials (such as 2,5-diphenyloxazole), and wave-shifting agents in specific proportions and structures. Additionally, 3D printing is used to create hollow tube materials with through-cavities, serving as the support structure for the scintillator or for injecting other auxiliary materials, as well as printing structural components for fixing photoelectric conversion devices, reflective layers, and other parts. In one existing scintillator detector, the operator holds the handle and brings the detector body close to the radiation source; the result is displayed by a processor located below the handle.
[0003] To ensure the stability of the handle for the operator, the handle is usually positioned directly above the detector body and the processor. This restricts hand and line of sight when operating the processor, affecting the efficiency and convenience of operation. Therefore, a 3D-printed scintillator detector is needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a scintillator detector based on 3D printing, which can solve the technical problems mentioned in the background section.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] This utility model is a scintillator detector based on 3D printing, comprising:
[0007] The detector includes a detector body, a bracket, a support plate, and a handle. The detector body is fixed inside the bracket, the support plate is fixed to the upper end of one side of the bracket, and the handle is movably connected to the upper end of the support plate.
[0008] The movable component includes a through hole, a first limiting plate, a groove, a connecting post, and a second limiting plate. The through hole is opened on the upper end of the support plate, and the grip rod is inserted into the through hole. The first limiting plate is fixed to one end of the grip rod. The groove is opened on the other end of the grip rod away from the first limiting plate. The connecting post is screwed into the groove, and the second limiting plate is fixed to one end of the connecting post.
[0009] Furthermore, the moving component also includes a damping shaft and a limiting plate. One end of the damping shaft is fixed to the upper part of the support plate and located below the through hole. The limiting plate is rotatably connected to the other end of the damping shaft away from the support plate.
[0010] Furthermore, the first limiting plate and the second limiting plate are the same size, and their diameters are larger than the diameter of the through hole.
[0011] Furthermore, the detector also includes cables and a processor, with the processor fixed to the upper end of the bracket and the cables connecting the detector body and the processor.
[0012] Furthermore, it also includes an anti-accidental touch component, which includes a square through hole, an L-shaped connecting rod, and a first limiting rod. The square through hole is opened in the lower section of the support plate and is located above the processor in the horizontal direction. The upper end of the L-shaped connecting rod is fixed to the side of the first limiting plate. The first limiting rod is inserted into the square through hole and one end is fixed to the lower end of the L-shaped connecting rod.
[0013] Furthermore, the anti-accidental touch component also includes a second limiting rod and a third limiting rod. The middle part of the side of the second limiting rod is fixed to the other end of the first limiting rod away from the L-shaped connecting rod, and one end of the third limiting rod is fixed to both ends of the second limiting rod.
[0014] Furthermore, the second limiting rod is movably connected above the processor, and the third limiting rod is movably connected above the processor and on both sides of the support plate.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the embodiments of this utility model have at least the following advantages or beneficial effects:
[0016] I. This utility model, through the set movable component, when it is necessary to operate the processor button area, rotates the limiting plate around the damping axis by 90 degrees, the limiting plate disengages from the first limiting plate, pushes the second limiting plate, and causes the grip to move along the through hole until the second limiting plate fits against the support plate, exposing the processor button area. After the operation is completed, the above steps are reversed to return the grip to its original position, and the grip can be held for detection. This setting facilitates accurate operation of the processor.
[0017] II. This utility model, through the provision of an anti-accidental touch component, prevents accidental button touches when operating the processor button area. Moving the grip lever moves the L-shaped connecting rod, which in turn moves the first limiting rod along the square through hole, and then moves the second and third limiting rods. When the second limiting plate is in contact with the support plate, the second limiting rod is in contact with the support plate. After the operation is completed, the grip lever is returned to its original position. At this time, the first, second, and third limiting rods move above the processor button area. This design prevents accidental button touches by the hand when holding the grip lever, as the hand is blocked by the first, second, and third limiting rods. Attached Figure Description

[0027] Please see Figure 1-4As shown, this embodiment is a scintillator detector based on 3D printing, including:
[0028] The detector includes a detector body 10, a bracket 13, a support plate 14, and a handle 15. The detector body 10 is fixed inside the bracket 13, the support plate 14 is fixed to the upper end of one side of the bracket 13, and the handle 15 is movably connected to the upper end of the support plate 14.
[0029] The detector also includes a cable 11 and a processor 12. The processor 12 is fixed to the upper end of the bracket 13, and the cable 11 is connected between the detector body 10 and the processor 12.
[0030] The detector body 10 is used to detect radiation, the cable 11 is used to transmit signals, the processor 12 receives and converts signals and displays them on the screen, the bracket 13 provides support and fixation, and the support plate 14 serves as a connector for connecting the handle 15, which facilitates handheld operation of the detector.
[0031] The movable component includes a through hole 20, a first limiting plate 21, a groove 22, a connecting post 23, and a second limiting plate 24. The through hole 20 is opened on the upper end of the support plate 14, and the handle 15 is inserted into the through hole 20. The first limiting plate 21 is fixed to one end of the handle 15. The groove 22 is opened on the other end of the handle 15 away from the first limiting plate 21. The connecting post 23 is screwed into the groove 22. The second limiting plate 24 is fixed to one end of the connecting post 23.
[0032] The moving assembly also includes a damping shaft 25 and a limiting plate 26. One end of the damping shaft 25 is fixed to the upper section of the support plate 14 and is located below the through hole 20. The limiting plate 26 is rotatably connected to the other end of the damping shaft 25 away from the support plate 14.
[0033] The first limiting plate 21 and the second limiting plate 24 are the same size, and their diameters are larger than the diameters of the through holes 20.
[0034] The through hole 20 facilitates the movement of the grip 15. The first limiting plate 21 and the second limiting plate 24 serve as limiting devices. The groove 22 and the connecting post 23 serve as a connection, facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the grip 15. The damping shaft 25 facilitates the positioning of the limiting plate 26. The limiting plate 26 serves as a limiting device, preventing the grip 15 from sliding when held in the hand.
[0035] Working principle:
[0036] Insert the grip 15 into the through hole 20, and screw the connecting post 23 on the second limiting plate 24 into the groove 22. When it is necessary to operate the button area of the processor 12, rotate the limiting plate 26 around the damping axis 25 to rotate it 90 degrees. The limiting plate 26 disengages from the first limiting plate 21 and pushes the second limiting plate 24, causing the grip 15 to move along the through hole 20 until the second limiting plate 24 fits against the support plate 14, exposing the button area of the processor 12. After the operation is completed, reverse the above steps to return the grip 15 to its original position, and then hold the grip 15 for detection.
[0037] This step facilitates accurate operation of processor 12.

[0040] The anti-accidental touch component also includes a second limiting rod 33 and a third limiting rod 34. The middle side of the second limiting rod 33 is fixed to the other end of the first limiting rod 32 away from the L-shaped connecting rod 31, and one end of the third limiting rod 34 is fixed to both ends of the second limiting rod 33.
[0041] The second limiting rod 33 is movably connected above the processor 12, and the third limiting rod 34 is movably connected above the processor 12 and both sides of the support plate 14.
[0042] The square through hole 30 facilitates the movement of the first limiting rod 32, the L-shaped connecting rod 31 serves as a connection, and the first limiting rod 32, the second limiting rod 33 and the third limiting rod 34 serve as blocks to block the button area of the processor 12.
[0043] Working principle:
[0044] When operating the button area of processor 12, move the grip lever 15, which will move the L-shaped connecting rod 31, thereby moving the first limiting rod 32 along the square through hole 30, and moving the second limiting rod 33 and the third limiting rod 34. When the second limiting plate 24 is in contact with the support plate 14, the second limiting rod 33 will be in contact with the support plate 14. After the operation is completed, return the grip lever 15 to its original position. At this time, the first limiting rod 32, the second limiting rod 33 and the third limiting rod 34 will move above the button area of processor 12.
