Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of health monitoring technology, and in particular to a monitoring strap and health monitoring device. Background Technology

[0002] To monitor parameters such as heart rate and blood oxygen saturation, it is often necessary to secure the monitoring device to the hands, feet, or other parts of the monitored object using straps. Taking infant health monitoring as an example, existing monitoring equipment typically straps the infant's feet, with the ends of the straps connected by Velcro to secure them in place.

[0003] However, the existing straps can only control the tightness of the straps by adjusting the position of the Velcro fasteners. This is to avoid the straps being too tight and affecting blood supply to the feet, or too loose and affecting the monitoring results of the equipment. The Velcro fasteners need to be adjusted repeatedly to achieve the best monitoring effect, which is a rather cumbersome process and makes the straps less convenient to use.

[0004] In addition, when there are differences in the physical size of the monitored subjects, different sizes of straps are needed to achieve the appropriate binding effect, resulting in poor versatility of the existing straps. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application provides a monitoring strap and health monitoring device to solve the technical problems of existing straps having a cumbersome binding and adjustment process and poor versatility.

[0006] In a first aspect, this application provides a monitoring strap, comprising:

[0007] The main body of the strap is used to secure it to the feet or hands of the monitored object;

[0008] The monitoring body is used to fix to the foot or hand of the monitored object. The monitoring body is provided with a first memory deformation material, which has an initial shape that at least partially matches the shape of the foot or hand.

[0009] The connector has one end connected to the strap body and the other end connected to the monitoring body.

[0010] Monitoring devices are installed on the monitoring unit to acquire biological monitoring data.

[0011] Optionally, the monitoring body includes a first binding part, and the shape of the first memory deformation material is set to match the shape of the first binding part;

[0012] When the first memory deformation material is in its initial form, the first binding part is in a bent state to form a first binding space on the inner side of the first binding part.

[0013] Optionally, the first binding part includes at least two layers of first fabric, with a first shape-memory material sandwiched between two adjacent layers of first fabric.

[0014] Optionally, the first binding part is further provided with a first protective layer, which is disposed on the inner side of the first shape memory material.

[0015] Optionally, the strap body is provided with a second shape memory material, which has an initial shape that at least partially matches the shape of the foot or hand.

[0016] Optionally, the strap body includes a second binding part, and the shape of the second memory deformation material is matched with the shape of the second binding part;

[0017] When the second memory deformation material is in its initial form, the second binding part is in a bent state to form a second binding space on the inner side of the second binding part.

[0018] Optionally, the second binding part includes at least two layers of second fabric, with a second shape-memory material sandwiched between two adjacent layers of second fabric.

[0019] Optionally, the second binding part is further provided with a second protective layer, which is disposed on the inner side of the second shape memory material.

[0020] Optionally, the connector is provided with a third memory deformation material, and the two ends of the third memory deformation material are respectively connected to the first memory deformation material and the second memory deformation material to form an I-shaped structure.

[0021] Secondly, this application provides a health monitoring device, including the monitoring strap provided in the first aspect of this application, wherein the monitoring device communicates with the control module of the health monitoring device.

[0022] The technical solutions provided in this application have the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0023] The monitoring strap provided in this application includes a monitoring body and a monitoring device disposed on the monitoring body. The monitoring body is provided with a first memory deformation material, and the first memory deformation material has an initial shape that at least partially matches the shape of a foot or hand. When the first memory deformation material is in a changing shape, it can arbitrarily change its shape. The monitoring body can change shape with the first memory deformation material, thereby enabling the monitoring body to match the shape of the bound part. This allows the monitoring strap to match different sizes of bound parts, improving the versatility of the monitoring strap. Under external stimuli (such as temperature, electric field, magnetic field, etc.), the first memory deformation material returns to its initial shape, automatically wrapping and compressing the bound part, allowing the monitoring device to achieve close and stable contact with the skin of the monitored object. The entire binding process is simple, without cumbersome adjustment procedures, which helps to improve the ease of use of the monitoring strap.

[0024] The health monitoring device provided in this application includes the aforementioned monitoring strap, which can achieve shape matching with different sizes of bound parts and automatically wrap and tighten under external stimuli. Therefore, the health monitoring device of this application naturally has the technical effects of the aforementioned monitoring strap. Attached Figure Description

[0043] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0044] The following disclosure provides many different embodiments or examples for implementing different structures of this application. To simplify the disclosure, specific examples of components and arrangements are described below. Of course, these are merely examples and are not intended to limit the scope of this application. Furthermore, reference numerals and / or letters may be repeated in different examples. Such repetition is for simplification and clarity and does not in itself indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or arrangements discussed.

[0045] For ease of description, spatial relative terms may be used in the text to describe the relative position or movement of one element or feature relative to another element or feature, as shown in the figure. These relative terms include, for example, "inside," "outside," "middle," "outer," "below," "below," "above," "front," "back," etc. Such spatial relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation, other than those depicted in the figure. For example, if the device in the figure undergoes a positional flip, orientation change, or change of motion, these directional indications will change accordingly. For instance, an element described as "below other elements or features" or "below other elements or features" will subsequently be oriented "above other elements or features" or "above other elements or features." Therefore, the example term "below" can include both upper and lower orientations. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or in other directions), and the spatial relative descriptors used in the text will be interpreted accordingly.

[0046] To address the technical problems of cumbersome binding and adjustment processes and poor versatility in existing binding straps, this application provides a monitoring strap and health monitoring device. The monitoring strap has a monitoring body 2, on which a first shape-memory deformable material 21 is provided. When the first shape-memory deformable material 21 is in a changing state, it can arbitrarily change shape. The monitoring body 2 can change shape along with the first shape-memory deformable material 21, thereby allowing the monitoring strap to match the shape of the bound area. Under external stimuli (such as temperature, electric field, magnetic field, etc.), the first shape-memory deformable material 21 returns to its initial shape, automatically wrapping and compressing the bound area, thus fixing the monitoring device to the bound area through the monitoring body 2, achieving health monitoring. The entire binding process is simple and applicable to monitoring subjects of different body types, which improves the ease of use and versatility of the monitoring strap.

[0047] Please see Figures 1 to 11 The first aspect of this application provides a monitoring strap, including a strap body 1, a monitoring body 2, a connector 3 and a monitoring device (not shown in the figure). The strap body 1 is used to fix to the foot or hand of the monitored object, and can be used to achieve the initial fixation of the monitoring strap to the bound part.

[0048] The monitoring body 2 is used to fix to the foot or hand of the monitored object. The monitoring body 2 is provided with a first memory deformation material 21, which has an initial shape and a changed shape. The first memory deformation material 21 has an initial shape that at least partially matches the shape of the foot or hand. When the first memory deformation material 21 is in the changed shape, its shape can be arbitrarily changed to adjust the fit between the monitoring body 2 and different monitored objects or different binding parts.

[0049] The first memory deformation material 21 can be made of thermally induced shape memory material, electro-induced shape memory material or magneto-induced shape memory material. When the first memory deformation material 21 is heated to a specific temperature range or is in a specific electric or magnetic field, the first memory deformation material 21 can return to its initial shape. The initial shape can be set to the shape and size corresponding to the smallest bound part. After the first memory deformation material 21 returns to its initial shape, it can automatically wrap and compress the bound part, thereby fixing the monitoring body 2 of the monitoring strap to the bound part of the monitoring object, so as to facilitate the adhesion between the monitoring device and the skin of the monitoring object.

[0050] One end of the connector 3 is connected to the strap body 1, and the other end of the connector 3 is connected to the monitoring body 2, so that the strap body 1 and the monitoring body 2 are connected into a whole, which facilitates the overall removal and placement of the monitoring strap.

[0051] The monitoring device is installed on the monitoring body 2 to acquire biological monitoring data, such as heart rate parameters and blood oxygen parameters, so as to assess the overall health status of the monitored object.

[0052] It should be noted that the monitoring strap of this application can be used to restrain any living being requiring monitoring, such as infants, children, and adults. The shape of the monitoring strap can be designed according to the shape of the restrained part of the monitored object (such as feet, hands, ankles, wrists, etc.). As long as the monitoring strap can achieve a close and fixed fit between the monitoring strap and the restrained part, the purpose of this application can be achieved.

[0053] In the following embodiments of this application, the infant's foot (i.e., foot) is used as the binding part for description. At this time, the initial shape of the first memory deformation material 21 matches the smallest size of the infant's foot, which can avoid a large gap between the first memory deformation material 21 and the infant's foot when the first memory deformation material 21 returns to its initial shape, which is conducive to achieving the fit between the monitoring body 2 and the skin surface and monitoring. When infants of different ages use the same monitoring strap, the shape and size can be adjusted by the first memory deformation material 21 under changing shape. When the first memory deformation material 21 returns to its initial shape, the monitoring body 2 will shrink to a certain extent, which can automatically wrap and tighten the infant's foot.

[0054] It should be noted that the first shape memory material 21 of this application has a shape memory effect and can be made of materials such as nickel-titanium alloy and iron-boron alloy. The first shape memory material 21 can recover to its initial shape under external stimuli (such as temperature, electric field, magnetic field, etc.). Figure 3 As shown, this allows for the wrapping and compression of the bound area, facilitating the adjustment of the fit and tightness between the monitoring body 2 and the bound area.

[0055] In some preferred embodiments of this application, the first shape memory material 21 is made of a thermotropic shape memory material, so that the shape memory effect of the first shape memory material 21 is realized through temperature change. When the first shape memory material 21 is heated to a certain temperature, it will undergo shape change until it returns to its original shape. Figure 1 The initial form shown. The shape memory temperature of the first shape memory material 21 is set to the surface temperature of the monitored object (e.g., 36±1℃). When the monitored subject 2 comes into contact with the skin of the monitored object, the first shape memory material 21 can be heated directly by the surface temperature of the monitored object, thereby changing the first shape memory material 21 into its initial form.

[0056] It should be noted that when the first memory deformation material 21 is made of thermo-induced shape memory material, there is no need to set up an additional electric field or magnetic field generating device. The first memory deformation material 21 can be directly shaped by the body surface temperature of the monitored object and restored to its initial form. This is beneficial to reduce the number of parts in the health monitoring device and reduce the manufacturing cost of the health monitoring device.

[0057] In some embodiments of this application, when the shape memory temperature of the first shape memory material 21 is set to 36°C, the first shape memory material 21 exhibits various morphological changes in an environment with an ambient temperature below 36°C, for example... Figure 2 and Figure 3 The flattened shape shown can also be a bent shape that matches the bound part (this bent shape may differ in shape and size from the initial shape).

[0058] When used at room temperature (below 36℃), the main body 1 of the monitoring strap is tied to the baby's lower leg to achieve initial fixation of the monitoring strap. Then, the shape of the monitoring main body 2 is arbitrarily changed (the first memory deformation material 21 is in a shape-memory state), and it is tied to the baby's foot. After standing for a certain period of time, the first memory deformation material 21 is heated by the baby's body surface temperature, so that the temperature of the first memory deformation material 21 reaches the shape memory temperature, and the monitoring main body 2 is restored to its original shape. Figure 1 The initial shape shown is used to wrap around the baby's feet.

[0059] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The monitoring body 2 includes a first binding part 22, and the shape of the first memory deformation material 21 is matched with the shape of the first binding part 22; and the first binding part 22 is a flexible part that can change shape with the first memory deformation material 21, and is used to directly contact the skin of the monitored object to avoid the first memory deformation material 21 from producing marks on the bound part of the monitored object.

[0060] When the first memory deformation material 21 is in its initial form, the first binding part 22 is in a bent state to form a first binding space 24 on the inner side of the first binding part 22. This space is used to surround the outer side of the bound part, so that the monitoring body 2 can be bound to the baby's feet to fix the monitoring device, so that the monitoring device can make stable contact with the skin of the baby's feet, thereby realizing the acquisition of biological monitoring data.

[0061] It should be noted that there can be multiple first binding parts 22, which can bind the baby's feet in multiple places to prevent the bound parts from coming off the monitoring straps and improve the connection reliability between the monitoring body 2 and the bound parts. Multiple first binding parts 22 can be set on the same side of the connector 3, or they can be staggered or symmetrically set on both sides of the connector 3. As long as stable binding of the bound parts can be achieved, the purpose of this application can be achieved.

[0062] As a specific embodiment of this application, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 Two first binding parts 22 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connector 3, which can clamp the binding parts 22 to fix the binding parts on both sides, so that the monitoring body 2 can apply force evenly to the binding parts on both sides, and improve the comfort of the monitored object.

[0063] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The first binding part 22 includes at least two layers of first fabric 221 stacked together. The first memory deformation material 21 is sandwiched between two adjacent layers of first fabric 221. This can prevent the first memory deformation material 21 from being exposed and also prevent the first memory deformation material 21 from directly contacting the skin of the monitored object, thus avoiding abrasion and damage to the skin of the monitored object and improving the comfort of the monitored object during the monitoring process.

[0064] It should be noted that the first fabric layer 221 is made of a flexible material, which can reduce the pressure exerted by the first memory deformation material 21 on the bound area, thus preventing marks or bruises from appearing on the bound area. The first fabric layer 221 can be made of fleece, Lycra, cotton, or other soft fabrics, and its contact with the skin can prevent the monitoring body 2 from exerting excessive pressure on the bound area.

[0065] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 7 The first binding part 22 is also provided with a first protective layer 222. The first protective layer 222 is located on the inner side of the first memory deformation material 21, which can increase the distance between the first memory deformation material 21 and the bound part, further reducing the damage of the first memory deformation material 21 to the bound part. It is especially suitable for protecting the delicate skin surface of infants and other delicate skin.

[0066] It should be noted that the first protective layer 222 is only located on the inner side of the monitoring body 2 (i.e., the side in contact with the skin of the monitored object), which improves the comfort of the monitored user while avoiding unnecessary cost increases. The material of the first protective layer 222 can also be fleece, Lycra, cotton, or other soft fabrics. The number of layers of the first fabric layer 221 and the first protective layer 222 can be set to one or more as needed, all of which can achieve the purpose of this application.

[0067] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 The monitoring body 2 is equipped with an installation part 23 for installing monitoring devices, thereby obtaining the physiological parameters of the monitored object through the monitoring devices, so as to assess the overall health status of the monitored object.

[0068] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The mounting section 23 includes one or more mounting holes, which can be used to install different types of monitoring devices to obtain different types of physiological parameters, such as heart rate parameters and blood oxygen parameters.

[0069] In other embodiments of this application, the mounting part 23 includes one or more snap-fit ​​structures, which can realize a detachable connection between the monitoring strap and the monitoring device by snap-fit ​​connection.

[0070] In the above embodiments, the main body 1 of the strap can be a long Velcro strap or a strip of cloth to accommodate the binding of different sizes of calf parts, but the binding process is still relatively cumbersome.

[0071] To address the aforementioned issues, in some embodiments of this application, the strap body 1 is provided with a second shape-memory material 11. The second shape-memory material 11 has an initial shape that at least partially matches the shape of the foot or hand. The second shape-memory material 11 has the same material and binding principle as the first shape-memory material 21, and can recover to its initial shape under external stimuli (such as temperature, electric field, magnetic field, etc.). It can automatically wrap and compress the bound part (such as the calf), thereby conveniently fixing the strap body 1 to the bound part.

[0072] In some preferred embodiments of this application, both the second shape-memory material 11 and the first shape-memory material 21 are made of thermotropic shape-memory materials. By heating the object with the monitored body temperature, the first shape-memory material 21 can be restored to its initial shape, thus wrapping and compressing the infant's feet; the second shape-memory material 11 can be restored to its initial shape, thus wrapping and compressing the infant's calves or ankles, such as... Figure 1 As shown.

[0073] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The main body of the strap 1 includes a second binding part 12, and the shape of the second memory deformation material 11 is matched with the shape of the second binding part 12; and the second binding part 12 is a flexible part that can change shape with the second memory deformation material 11, and is used to directly contact the skin of the monitored object to avoid the second memory deformation material 11 from causing strangulation marks on the bound part of the monitored object.

[0074] When the second memory deformable material 11 is in its initial form, the second binding part 12 is in a bent state to form a second binding space 13 on the inner side of the second binding part 12. The bound part (i.e., the baby's lower leg or ankle) can be embedded in the second binding space 13, and the inner side of the second binding part 12 is in contact with the outer surface of the bound part, so as to wrap and compress the bound part.

[0075] It should be noted that there can be multiple second binding parts 12, which can bind the infant's legs in multiple places, preventing the bound parts from coming off the monitoring straps and improving the connection reliability between the strap body 1 and the bound parts. Multiple second binding parts 12 can be set on the same side of the connector 3, or they can be staggered or symmetrically set on both sides of the connector 3. As long as stable binding of the bound parts can be achieved, the purpose of this application can be achieved.

[0076] As a specific embodiment of this application, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 Two second binding parts 12 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connector 3, which can clamp the binding parts 12 to fix the binding parts on both sides, and make the binding body 1 apply force evenly to the binding parts on both sides, thus improving the comfort of the monitored object.

[0077] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 The second binding part 12 includes at least two stacked second fabric layers 121, with the second shape-memory material 11 sandwiched between two adjacent second fabric layers 121. This avoids the second shape-memory material 11 from being exposed and from directly contacting the monitored subject's skin, thus preventing abrasion and damage and improving the comfort of the monitored subject during monitoring.

[0078] It should be noted that the second fabric layer 121 is made of a flexible material, which can reduce the pressure exerted by the second shape-memory material 11 on the bound area, thus preventing marks or bruises from appearing on the bound area. The second fabric layer 121 can be made of fleece, Lycra, cotton, or other soft fabrics, and its contact with the skin can prevent the main strap 1 from exerting excessive pressure on the bound area.

[0079] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 9 The second binding part 12 is also provided with a second protective layer 122. The second protective layer 122 is located on the inner side of the second memory deformation material 11, which can increase the distance between the second memory deformation material 11 and the bound part, further reducing the damage of the second memory deformation material 11 to the bound part. It is especially suitable for protecting the delicate skin surface of infants and other delicate skin.

[0080] It should be noted that the second protective layer 122 is only located on the inner side of the strap body 1 (i.e., the side in contact with the skin of the monitored object), which improves the comfort of the monitored person while avoiding unnecessary cost increases. The material of the second protective layer 122 can also be fleece, Lycra, cotton, or other soft fabrics. The number of layers of the second fabric layer 121 and the second protective layer 122 can be set to one or more as needed, all of which can achieve the purpose of this application.

[0081] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 The connector 3 is provided with a third memory deformation material 31. The two ends of the third memory deformation material 31 are respectively connected to the first memory deformation material 21 and the second memory deformation material 11 to form an I-shaped structure, which can match the shape of the monitoring straps that are symmetrically arranged on the left and right, and form at least two binding areas (such as the baby's legs and feet).

[0082] It should be noted that the third memory deformation material 31 has an initial shape that at least partially matches the shape of the foot or hand, and can match the shape changes of the bound part's surface (such as changes in the shape of the instep), improving the fit between the monitoring strap and the bound part. The third memory deformation material 31 has the same material and binding principle as the first memory deformation material 21, and will not be described again here.

[0083] The connector 3 extends along the length of the bound part, while the strap body 1 and the monitoring body 2 are used to surround the bound parts in different areas. The connection angle between the connector 3, the strap body 1, and the monitoring body 2 can be set according to the shape characteristics of the bound part, specifically it can be a right angle, an acute angle, or an obtuse angle.

[0084] The connector 3 can maintain a preset distance between adjacent strap bodies 1 and monitoring bodies 2 in the length direction, so that the first binding part 22 and the second binding part 12 can be bound to different binding areas, which helps to improve the ease of use of the monitoring strap.

[0085] In the above embodiments, the first shape memory material 21, the second shape memory material 11, and the third shape memory material 31 can be plate-shaped structures or frame structures made of shape memory alloy wires, all of which can achieve the purpose of this application.

[0086] In some preferred embodiments of this application, the first shape memory material 21, the second shape memory material 11, and the third shape memory material 31 are integrally formed by winding one or more shape memory alloy wires into an I-shaped frame structure. Compared with a plate-like structure, this can significantly reduce the amount of shape memory alloy material used. While achieving shape matching with the strap body 1, the monitoring body 2, and the connector 3, it can reduce the overall deformation difficulty of the first shape memory material 21, the second shape memory material 11, and the third shape memory material 31, making the monitoring strap easy to adjust its shape (in the changed state) while avoiding excessive pressure on the bound part (in the initial state).

[0087] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 The connector 3 includes at least two stacked third fabric layers 32, with a third shape-memory material 31 sandwiched between two adjacent third fabric layers 32. This avoids the third shape-memory material 31 from being exposed and from directly contacting the monitored object's skin, thus preventing abrasion and damage and improving the comfort of the monitored object during monitoring.

[0088] It should be noted that the third fabric layer 32 is made of a flexible material, which can reduce the pressure exerted by the third shape-memory material 31 on the bound area, thus preventing marks or bruises from appearing on the bound area. The third fabric layer 32 can be made of fleece, Lycra, cotton, or other soft fabrics. The contact between the third fabric layer 32 and the skin can prevent the connector 3 from exerting excessive pressure on the bound area.

[0089] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 11 The connector 3 is also provided with a third protective layer 33, which is located inside the third memory deformation material 31. It can increase the distance between the third memory deformation material 31 and the bound part, further reducing the damage of the third memory deformation material 31 to the bound part. It is especially suitable for protecting the delicate skin surface of infants and other delicate skin.

[0090] It should be noted that the third protective layer 33 is only located on the inner side of the connector 3 (i.e., the side in contact with the skin of the monitored object), which improves the comfort of the monitored user while avoiding unnecessary cost increases. The material of the third protective layer 33 can also be fleece, Lycra, cotton, or other soft fabrics. The number of layers of the third fabric layer 32 and the third protective layer 33 can be set to one or more as needed, all of which can achieve the purpose of this application.

[0091] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 3 as well as Figures 5 to 11 The first fabric layer 221, the second fabric layer 121, and the third fabric layer 32, which are located on the same layer, can be cut as a whole from the same piece of fabric to reduce the fabric sewing or connection process between the strap body 1, the connector 3, and the monitoring body 2. Correspondingly, the first protective layer 222, the second protective layer 122, and the third protective layer 33, which are located on the same layer, can also be cut as a whole from the same piece of fabric.

[0092] In the above embodiments, the connection between the shape memory material and the fabric layer and the protective layer can be achieved by hot melt adhesive bonding. Specifically, in a production environment with an ambient temperature below 36°C, the first shape memory material 21, the second shape memory material 11, and the third shape memory material 31 are flattened out as follows: Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the multi-layered fabric of the monitoring strap is cut into the designed shape, and the protective layer fabric is placed at the bottom. Then, the protective layer fabric and the fabric layer fabric are laid flat on the fixture. The first memory deformation material 21, the second memory deformation material 11 and the third memory deformation material 31 are laid flat on the bottom fabric, a layer of hot melt adhesive is laid on top, and then the top fabric is laid on top. The fixture is pressed together, and the materials are bonded together by melting the hot melt adhesive at high temperature. After cooling, the finished monitoring strap can be taken out from the fixture.

[0093] It should be noted that the bonding between the fabric layer, the shape memory material and the protective layer can also be achieved by other adhesive substances. As long as the adhesive substance has deformation capability after curing and can change shape with the first shape memory material 21, the second shape memory material 11 and the third shape memory material 31, the purpose of this application can be achieved.

[0094] Please see Figures 1 to 11 The second aspect of this application provides a health monitoring device, including the monitoring strap described in the above embodiments. The monitoring device communicates with the control module of the health monitoring device (i.e., signal connection). The control module can record, store, analyze, or issue alarms on the physiological parameters acquired by the monitoring device, thereby realizing the assessment and management of the health status of the monitored object.

[0095] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 3 The mounting part 23 of the first binding part 22 includes two mounting holes, which can be used to install two different types of monitoring devices. When the first binding part 22 binds the baby's feet, the two monitoring devices can contact the baby's instep and sole respectively, thereby monitoring the baby's heart rate parameters and blood oxygen parameters respectively.

[0096] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figures 1 to 11 The above-mentioned monitoring straps are used in the following ways:

[0097] Step 1: At room temperature, attach the monitoring strap to the baby's feet, bend the shape memory material at the first strap 22, the second strap 12 and the connector 3, so that the second strap 12 is initially attached to the baby's leg and the first strap 22 is initially attached to the baby's foot.

[0098] Step 2: After the monitoring straps have been in contact with the baby's feet for a period of time, the first memory deformation material 21, the second memory deformation material 11, and the third memory deformation material 31 will return to their initial form from their changed form under the influence of the baby's body surface temperature. The first memory deformation material 21 and the second memory deformation material 11 will contract, so that the second binding part 12 and the first binding part 22 will respectively adhere to the outer surface of the baby's legs (or ankles) and feet, wrapping the baby's legs (or ankles) and feet.

[0099] Step 3: Install the monitoring device on the mounting part 23 of the monitoring strap and use the health monitoring device to monitor the infant's physiological parameters.
