[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-5This utility model provides an embodiment: a wearable sex hormone level tracker, including a detection device body 2, a touch screen display 1, connecting components 3, and a body fluid collection component 4. The touch screen display 1 is fixedly connected to the top of the detection device body 2. Connecting components 3 are provided on both the left and right sides of the detection device body 2, and the body fluid collection component 4 is provided in the middle of the bottom of the detection device body 2. The detection device body 2 and the touch screen display 1 are existing technologies and will not be described in detail here. The connecting component 3 includes a connecting buckle 31. A buckle assembly 32 is provided at the end of the connecting buckle 31 near the detection device body 2. The buckle assembly 32 is located inside the detection device body 2, and the end of the connecting buckle 31 away from the detection device body 2 can be connected to an external wearing device. The latching assembly 32 includes a downward fixing claw 322, which is n-shaped. The length of the side of the downward fixing claw 322 away from the connecting latch 31 in the vertical direction is greater than the length of the side closer to the connecting latch 31. A support spring 321 is fixedly connected to the middle of the top of the downward fixing claw 322 in the horizontal direction. The top of the support spring 321 is fixedly connected to the top of the inside of the detection device body 2. The downward fixing claw 322 slides up and down inside the detection device body 2. The bottom of the downward fixing claw 322 in the vertical direction is inclined at the outward angle near the connecting latch 31. The different lengths of the two vertical sides of the downward fixing claw 322 have different linkage functions. The downward fixing claw 322 will continuously press down under the support of the support spring 321, and the inclined surface of the downward fixing claw 322 provides a force point for other components to push the downward fixing claw 322 upward. A fixing plate 324 is provided below the vertical side of the pressing fixing claw 322 near the connecting buckle 31. The fixing plate 324 slides inside the detection device body 2. A fixing groove 323 is opened on the top of the fixing plate 324 near the pressing fixing claw 322. The bottom vertical end of the pressing fixing claw 322 can enter the inside of the fixing groove 323. The end of the fixing plate 324 away from the fixing groove 323 is fixedly connected to the outside of the connecting buckle 31. The outer angle of the top of the fixing plate 324 near the pressing fixing claw 322 is inclined. An unlocking slide plate 325 is provided below 24. The unlocking slide plate 325 is parallel to the fixed insert plate 324. The outer surface of the unlocking slide plate 325 is slidably connected to the inside of the detection device body 2. The outer corner of the top of the unlocking slide plate 325 near the pressing fixed claw 322 is inclined. Limiting ribs 326 are fixedly connected to both the top and bottom ends of the unlocking slide plate 325. An unlocking button 327 is fixedly connected to the end of the unlocking slide plate 325 away from the pressing fixed claw 322. The end of the unlocking button 327 away from the unlocking slide plate 325 extends to be flush with the outer surface of the detection device body 2.When the fixed insert plate 324 is inserted into the inner waist of the detection device body 2 for connection, the inclined surface of the fixed insert plate 324 will contact the inclined surface of the shorter vertical side of the pressing fixed claw 322, allowing the fixed insert plate 324 to push the pressing fixed claw 322 to overcome the elastic force of the support spring 321 and rise. After the pressing fixed claw 322 is raised, the fixed insert plate 324 continues to be inserted, and the end of the fixed insert plate 324 that is in contact with the fixed claw 322 will reach the top of the fixed slot 323 and enter the fixed slot 323. Since the fixed slot 323 cannot contact the inclined surface of the pressing fixed claw 322, the fixed insert plate 324 is locked in place, preventing the fixed insert plate 324 from being pulled out. When unlocking is required... When changing the wearing method, pressing the unlock button 327 causes the unlock button 327 to push the unlocking slide 325 to move. When the inclined surface of the unlocking slide 325 contacts the inclined surface of the vertically longer side of the pressing fixed claw 322, the unlocking slide 325 will lift the pressing fixed claw 322. At this time, the pressing fixed claw 322 will leave the inside of the fixed slot 323, thereby unlocking the fixed insert 324. After the fixed insert 324 is pulled out, the pressing fixed claw 322 will remain pressed down under the support of the support spring 321, so that the pressing fixed claw 322 pushes the unlocking slide 325 to keep it popped out, in preparation for the next unlock. The limiting ridge 326 can ensure the movement range of the unlocking slide 325. The body fluid collection component 4 includes a placement slot 42, which is located at the bottom center of the main body 2 of the detection device. Two guide detection holes 43 are located at the center of the top inner side of the placement slot 42. Fixed magnets 44 are fixedly connected to the four outward corners of the top inner side of the placement slot 42. A semi-circular component replacement opening 45 is located at the center of the front inner side of the placement slot 42. A contact collection layer 41 is disposed inside the placement slot 42. The placement slot 42 provides an accurate installation position for the contact collection layer 41. The guide detection holes 43 allow sweat entering the device to contact and detect internal components, and guide the installation of the contact collection layer 41. When the contact collection layer 41 needs to be replaced, the user can easily remove the old contact collection layer 41 through this opening. The contact acquisition layer 41 includes a contact layer body 411, which can enter the inner side of the placement groove 42. Two drainage holes 412 are opened in the middle of the bottom end of the contact acquisition layer 41. The two drainage holes 412 are parallel to each other and correspond to the guide detection hole 43. Several flow guiding microchannels 413 are opened around the two drainage holes 412 at the bottom end of the contact layer body 411. The flow guiding microchannels 413 on the same side are symmetrical about the drainage hole 412. The flow guiding microchannels 413 are wavy. The contact layer body 411 is made of medical silicone material.The contact layer body 411 can enter the inner side of the placement groove 42, directly adhering to the user's skin surface, and providing support and installation base for other components. The drainage holes 412 can collect sweat together, forming a concentrated liquid flow, which is then transported into the guide detection hole 43. The wave-shaped guide microchannel 413 and central symmetry can increase the flow path and contact area of ​​sweat in the contact collection layer 41, which is conducive to the rapid collection and drainage of sweat. Two guide drainage columns 415 are fixedly connected to the middle of the top of the contact layer body 411. The two guide drainage columns 415 can simultaneously enter the inner side of the guide detection hole 43. The two guide drainage columns 415 are respectively connected to the two drainage holes 412. Fixed magnets 414 are fixedly connected to the four outward corners of the top of the contact layer body 411. Fixed magnets 414 and fixed magnets 44 attract each other. The guide column 415 provides a precise path for the transfer of sweat from the drainage hole 412 to the guide detection hole 43, and provides guidance for the installation of the contact collection layer 41. The fixing magnet 414 and the fixing magnet 44 at the four outward corners of the inner top of the placement groove 42 attract each other, which can firmly fix the contact collection layer 41 in the placement groove 42. Under the tension of the liquid, the sweat flows into the drainage hole 412 through the guide microchannel 413 and then into the guide detection hole 43 through the guide column 415 to contact and be detected. After detection, the sweat will evaporate over time.

[0024] During operation, ensure that the contact collection layer 41 is clean and in normal working order. If replacement is required, it can be done through the component replacement opening 45. Connect the connecting buckle 31 to the external wearing device. When connecting, insert the fixing plate 324 to lift the pressing fixing claw 322 and enter the fixing slot 323 to complete the fixation. Put the wearing device in the appropriate position. The contact layer body 411 contacts the skin and begins to collect sweat when sweating. During normal user activity, the sweat flows into the drainage hole 412 through the guide microchannel 413, and then enters the guide detection hole 43 through the guide drainage column 415. The sensor inside the detection device body 2 detects the sample, and the detection results are displayed on the touch screen 1. The user can intuitively view information such as sex hormone level data and trends. If you need to remove the tracker, press the unlock button 327. The unlocking slide 325 lifts the pressing fixing claw 322 and leaves the fixing slot 323. Pull out the connecting buckle 31 to complete all the work.

[0025] Through the above steps, the main body 2 of the detection device is connected to an external wearable device via a connecting component 3. The connecting buckle 31 and buckle assembly 32 of the connecting component 3 allow the tracker to be easily fixed to an external wearable device such as a wristband or watch strap, achieving a watch-like wearing method. This does not occupy extra space and allows users to wear it on their wrist or other parts of their body at any time, enabling on-the-go detection. The tracker can be easily worn to monitor sex hormone levels, greatly improving the convenience and timeliness of the detection. The wave-shaped microchannels 413 increase the flow path and contact area of ​​sweat within the contact collection layer 41, facilitating rapid sweat accumulation and drainage. Simultaneously, the microchannels 413 are symmetrically distributed around the drainage hole 412, allowing sweat to collect more evenly towards the drainage hole 412. More efficient sweat collection shortens the time required to reach the required sample volume for detection, reducing the user's waiting time for test results and improving detection efficiency, thus completing the detection of hormones in sweat. This device is used to detect estradiol in human sweat, as obtaining blood samples is inconvenient, hence the use of sweat samples. It overcomes the shortcomings of existing sex hormone level trackers, which are not portable, making it impossible to conduct tests on the go, resulting in low convenience. They also have poor sweat collection efficiency, leading to long testing times and reduced testing efficiency. In addition, existing sex hormone level trackers usually require blood collection for testing, which is extremely inconvenient for individuals who need to monitor their sex hormones regularly.

[0026] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
