Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrocardiogram monitoring technology, specifically a multi-lead electrocardiogram monitoring cable organizer for the monitoring room. Background Technology

[0002] In the intensive care unit, multi-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) monitors are crucial medical devices, bearing the heavy responsibility of real-time and accurate monitoring of multiple key physiological parameters in patients. Their timely detection of changes in a patient's condition and their effective treatment are of paramount importance. Through multi-lead ECG monitors, medical staff can continuously obtain key information such as the patient's electrocardiogram, respiratory rate, body temperature, blood pressure, blood oxygen saturation, and pulse rate, providing solid data support for clinical diagnosis and treatment decisions.

[0003] In actual clinical applications, multi-lead ECG monitors are equipped with numerous leads, each with a unique function and role, such as ECG leads, pulse oximetry leads, and blood pressure leads, each responsible for transmitting signals of different physiological parameters. However, these leads are relatively long and need to extend to different parts of the patient's body during monitoring, making them prone to tangling and knotting. ICU medical staff often spend a significant amount of time and energy untangling these messy leads during routine nursing procedures, emergency resuscitations, or equipment replacements, severely impacting work efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a multi-lead ECG monitoring cable organizer for the intensive care unit, which solves the problem mentioned in the background technology that the lead cables are easily tangled and knotted during use, causing medical staff to spend a lot of time and energy sorting out the messy lead cables, which seriously affects work efficiency.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a multi-lead ECG monitoring cable organizer for a monitoring room, comprising a storage plate, a cable splitter fixedly mounted on the top of the storage plate, multiple lead wires arranged on one side of the cable splitter, each lead wire corresponding to a multiple winding group, each winding group consisting of a limiting frame and a winding rod, the limiting frame being fixedly mounted on the storage plate, the winding rod being spirally connected to a winding seat, the limiting frame having a through hole through which the lead wire passes and wraps around the winding rod, the top of the limiting frame having a rotating groove, and a limiting component being provided in the rotating groove.

[0006] Preferably, the distance between the winding rod and the limiting frame is the same as the diameter of the guide wire.

[0007] Preferably, the top end of the winding rod has a connecting hole.

[0008] Preferably, the limiting assembly includes a rotating frame, which is rotatably mounted in a rotating groove. A movable tube is provided on one end of the rotating frame, and the movable tube corresponds to the winding rod.

[0009] Preferably, a connecting plate is slidably disposed in the moving tube, and a pull rod and a limiting rod are fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the connecting plate, respectively. The connecting plate is connected to the top end of the inner cavity of the moving tube by a spring.

[0010] Preferably, the limiting rod passes through the bottom of the moving tube and is adapted to correspond to the connecting hole.

[0011] This utility model provides a storage and organization device for multi-lead ECG monitoring cables in a ICU. It features the following:

[0012] Beneficial effects:

[0013] (1) By setting a winding group structure on the storage plate, the present invention can pass a large number of lead wires through the holes and wrap them around the corresponding winding rods, thereby realizing the classification and organization of lead wires with different functions, avoiding the lead wires from getting tangled and knotted, making the originally messy lead wires orderly, and making it convenient for medical staff to quickly find the lead wires they need.

[0014] (2) This utility model blocks the lead wire by inserting the limiting rod into the connecting hole at the top of the winding rod, thus preventing the lead wire from coming off the top of the winding rod. At the same time, the distance between the winding rod and the limiting frame is the same as the diameter of the lead wire, making the lead wire winding more neat and tight, thereby avoiding the problem of the lead wire becoming loose.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Example 1:

[0025] Please see Figures 1-4 This utility model provides a multi-lead ECG monitoring cable organizer for the ICU, including a storage plate 1. A cable splitter 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the storage plate 1. Multiple lead wires 21 are arranged on one side of the cable splitter 2. The multiple lead wires 21 correspond one-to-one with multiple winding groups. The winding group consists of a limiting frame 3 and a winding rod 5. The limiting frame 3 is fixedly installed on the storage plate 1. The winding rod 5 is spirally connected to the winding seat 52. The limiting frame 3 has a through hole 32. The lead wires 21 pass through the through hole 32 and are wound around the winding rod 5. The top of the limiting frame 3 has a rotating groove 31. A limiting component 4 is arranged in the rotating groove 31.

[0026] The distance between the winding rod 5 and the limiting frame 3 is the same as the diameter of the guide wire 21;

[0027] A connecting hole 51 is provided at the top of the winding rod 5;

[0028] The limiting assembly 4 includes a rotating frame 41, which is rotatably installed in the rotating groove 31. A movable tube 43 is provided on one end of the rotating frame 41, and the movable tube 43 corresponds to the winding rod 5.

[0029] A connecting plate 44 is slidably disposed in the moving tube 43. A pull rod 45 and a limiting rod 42 are fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the connecting plate 44, respectively. The connecting plate 44 is connected to the top end of the inner cavity of the moving tube 43 by a spring 46.

[0030] The limiting rod 42 passes through the bottom of the moving tube 43 and is adapted to the connecting hole 51.

[0031] Specifically, when winding or extending the lead wire 21, medical staff pull the lever 45. The lever 45 causes the connecting plate 44 to slide upward within the moving tube 43, overcoming the elastic force of the spring 46 and causing the limiting lever 42 to disengage from the connecting hole 51 at the top of the winding rod 5. At this time, the rotating frame 41 can rotate freely in the rotating groove 31, and the winding rod 5 and the limiting frame 3 are no longer constrained, making it convenient for medical staff to perform winding, winding, or extension operations on the lead wire 21.

[0032] Once the lead wire 21 has extended to the appropriate length or completed winding, first pull the lever 45 to allow the limiting rod 42 to enter the moving tube 43 and compress the spring 46. Adjust the position of the rotating frame 41 in the rotating groove 31 so that the limiting rod 42 below the moving tube 43 is aligned with the connecting hole 51 at the top of the winding rod 5. Then release the lever 45. Under the elastic force of the spring 46, the connecting plate 44 drives the limiting rod 42 to move downward and insert into the connecting hole 51, locking the rotating frame 41 so that it is positioned above the winding rod 5 and the limiting frame 3, thereby preventing the lead wire 21 from detaching upward from between the winding rod 5 and the limiting frame 3.

[0033] Since the distance between the winding rod 5 and the limiting frame 3 is the same as the diameter of the lead wire 21, when the lead wire 21 passes through the perforation 32 on the limiting frame 3 and wraps around the winding rod 5, it can be accurately positioned between the winding rod 5 and the limiting frame 3. This ensures that the lead wire 21 will not shake or shift during the winding process, making the winding more neat and standardized. At the same time, the appropriate spacing can generate a certain friction force on the lead wire 21, effectively preventing the lead wire 21 from sliding on the winding rod 5. Especially during monitoring, patients may make some slight movements, or when the equipment is moved or tidied, it can prevent the lead wire 21 from loosening or shifting due to external force, ensuring that the lead wire 21 always remains in the correct position and ensuring the normal operation of ECG monitoring.

[0034] When the limiting rod 42 of the limiting component 4 is inserted into the connecting hole 51 at the top of the winding rod 5, it not only limits the lead wire 21 between the winding rod 5 and the limiting frame 3, but also, due to the precise positioning and clamping effect of the winding rod 5 and the limiting frame 3 on the lead wire 21, the lead wire 21 is fixed and will not be displaced due to slight shaking or external tension. This double fixing effect further improves the stability of the lead wire 21, preventing it from becoming loose and ensuring that the lead wire 21 can reliably connect to the monitoring equipment and the patient under various conditions, thus guaranteeing the accuracy of the monitoring data.

[0035] The spiral connection allows the winding rod 5 to be installed relatively easily onto the winding base 52. Simply align the threaded portion of the winding rod 5 with the corresponding threaded hole in the winding base 52, and then rotate the winding rod 5 to complete the installation. For disassembly, simply rotate the winding rod 5 in the opposite direction to remove it from the winding base 52. This convenient and quick installation and disassembly method facilitates operations by medical personnel when replacing the winding rod 5 or during maintenance and cleaning.

[0036] Working principle: Place the receiver in a suitable position and ensure that the branch head 2 is connected to the monitoring equipment. Before extending the lead wire 21, the medical staff pulls the lever 45. The lever 45 drives the connecting plate 44 to slide upward in the moving tube 43, overcoming the elastic force of the spring 46, so that the limiting rod 42 is disengaged from the connecting hole 51 at the top of the winding rod 5. At the same time, rotate the rotating frame 41 so that it rotates to a suitable position in the rotating groove 31, releasing the restriction between the winding rod 5 and the limiting frame 3. Then, the lead wire 21 is gradually released from the winding rod 5. After the lead wire 21 is extended to a suitable length, pull the lever 45 and adjust the position of the rotating frame 41 so that the limiting rod 42 is aligned with the connecting hole 51. Then, release the lever 45 to allow the limiting rod 42 to be inserted into the connecting hole 51, lock the rotating frame 41, and ensure that the lead wire 21 is kept in the extended state. Multiple lead wires 21 are correctly connected to the electrodes on the patient's body.

[0037] After monitoring is completed, medical staff reopen the limiting assembly 4, rotate the rotating frame 41 to the appropriate position, release the restriction between the winding rod 5 and the limiting frame 3, and wind the lead wire 21 around the winding rod 5. The lead wire 21 is wound to the appropriate number of turns as needed to complete the winding and storage. After winding, the pull rod 45 is pulled so that the limiting rod 42 enters the moving tube 43 and compresses the spring 46. The position of the rotating frame 41 in the rotating groove 31 is adjusted so that the limiting rod 42 below the moving tube 43 is aligned with the connecting hole 51 at the top of the winding rod 5. Then the pull rod 45 is released. Under the elastic force of the spring 46, the connecting plate 44 moves the limiting rod 42 downwards and inserts it into the connecting hole 51, locking the rotating frame 41 and preventing the lead wire 21 from detaching upwards from between the winding rod 5 and the limiting frame 3, thus completing the storage of the lead wire 21.
