Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a highly stable transcranial magnetic stimulator support. Background Technology
[0002] Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) devices generate rapidly changing magnetic fields through coils. These magnetic fields can penetrate the skull non-invasively and induce currents in the cerebral cortex. When the induced current reaches a certain intensity, it can cause depolarization of nerve cells, thereby generating action potentials. Changes in these action potentials can regulate the neural activity of the brain and achieve the control of brain function. During use, it is necessary to accurately target specific brain regions for stimulation. A highly stable support can ensure that the device will not shake or shift during operation, thus ensuring the accuracy of the stimulation position.
[0003] A search revealed Chinese patent publication number CN217310628U, which relates to a support frame for a transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) device. The frame includes a base, a vertical pole, a horizontal arm, and a handle coil. The base is equipped with casters and is fixedly connected to them, allowing them to roll on the ground. The vertical pole is located at the far end of the base and is fixedly connected to it, supporting the pole. The horizontal arm is located at the far end of the vertical pole and is rotatably connected to it, with a rotation axis between the horizontal arm and the vertical pole, allowing the horizontal arm to rotate freely on a horizontal plane. A straight rod is located at the end of the horizontal arm furthest from the vertical pole. One end of the straight rod is ball-jointed to the horizontal arm, and the other end is threaded to the handle coil. This application offers the ability to precisely fix the target position on the patient's head without requiring manual support from the doctor. However, in actual use, adjusting the height of the handle coil using the straight rod cannot achieve precise height adjustment, resulting in insufficient accuracy in the detection and failing to meet the user's demand for high precision. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a highly stable transcranial magnetic stimulation device support, which aims to improve the problem in the prior art where the height of the handle coil cannot be accurately adjusted by using a straight rod, resulting in inaccurate detection.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a highly stable transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) device support, comprising a support box, a groove on the rear side of the support box, a threaded rod rotatably connected to the bottom inner side of the groove, a driven bevel gear fixedly connected to the top end of the threaded rod, a rotating rod rotatably connected to the left side of the support box, a driving bevel gear fixedly connected to the right end of the rotating rod through the support box, the driving bevel gear meshing with the driven bevel gear, a moving block threadedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded rod, a connecting block fixedly connected to the rear side of the moving block, a hollow column fixedly connected to the rear side of the support box, a moving rod slidably connected inside the hollow column, a front side of the moving rod fixedly connected to the front side of the connecting block, a telescopic component rotatably connected to the top of the moving rod, a handle coil fixedly connected to the rear end of the telescopic component, and an installation mechanism provided on the front side of the support box.
[0006] The above technical solution involves rotating the rotating rod, which in turn drives the active bevel gear to rotate. The driven bevel gear and the threaded rod then rotate. The moving block, which is threaded to the outer wall of the threaded rod, moves up and down under the rotation of the threaded rod. The connecting block drives the moving rod to slide up and down inside the hollow column, thereby achieving the adjustment of the entire support height.
[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0008] The installation mechanism includes a second groove, which is located on the front side of the support box. The second groove has sliding grooves on both the left and right sides. Rollers are rotatably connected inside the sliding grooves. One end of each of the rollers is rotatably connected to a corresponding moving plate. A detection display is fixedly connected to the top of the moving plate. The front left and right sides of the moving plate have reserved holes. Limiters are rotatably connected to the left and right sides of the support box. The adjacent ends of the two limiters pass through the support box and rotate in the corresponding reserved holes.
[0009] The above technical solution involves placing the rollers on both sides of the moving plate into the slide groove. The rollers roll within the slide groove, allowing the moving plate to easily slide into the second groove. Once the moving plate, carrying the detection display, has moved to the appropriate position, the limiters on the left and right sides of the support box are rotated and rotated into the reserved holes. The detection display can then display the relevant data normally, providing accurate information feedback to the operator.
[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0011] The telescopic assembly includes a support plate rotatably connected to the top of a movable rod. A sliding groove is provided on the rear side of the movable rod, and the bottom of the sliding groove is connected to the movable groove. A sliding block is slidably connected inside the sliding groove. A limit block is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding block, and a handle coil is fixedly connected to the rear end of the sliding block. A fixed plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate, and a telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the rear side of the fixed plate. The rear end of the telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the front side of the limit block.
[0012] The above technical solution involves rotating the support plate to adjust the angle of the handle coil. When the appropriate angle is reached, the switch is turned on, causing the telescopic rod to push the limit block to move inside the moving groove. At the same time, the sliding block moves inside the sliding groove, adjusting the front and rear position of the handle coil, allowing the user to make precise adjustments to the position of the handle coil.
[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0014] The support box has a support frame fixedly connected to each of the four corners at the bottom, and the bottom of each of the support frames is rotatably connected to a wheel.
[0015] The above technical solution allows the support frame to be movable by rotating wheels at the bottom, making it easy to move the transcranial magnetic stimulation device support to different positions, thus improving the convenience and flexibility of use.
[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0017] The support box has storage slots on both the left and right sides, and each of the two storage slots has a handle that is rotatably connected inside.
[0018] The above technical solution provides storage space for the handles through the storage slots on the left and right sides of the support box. When the handles are not in use, they can be stored away without taking up extra space.
[0019] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0020] The support box is fixedly connected to a plurality of fixed blocks at equal intervals at the rear side. The rear ends of the plurality of fixed blocks are respectively fixedly connected to corresponding annular plates. The front sides of the plurality of annular plates are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the hollow column.
[0021] The above technical solution involves fixing the annular plate to the outer wall of the hollow column, which enhances the connection stability between the hollow column and the support box and prevents the hollow column from shaking or shifting during use.
[0022] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0023] The top of the support box is fixedly connected to a top plate, and the top of the top plate has a placement groove that fits into the handle coil.
[0024] The above technical solution allows the placement slot to fit snugly against the handle coil. When the handle coil is not in use, it can be placed in the placement slot, preventing the handle coil from being lost or damaged due to random placement.
[0025] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0026] A switch is fixedly connected to the top of the support box, and the switch is electrically connected to the telescopic rod and the detection display.
[0027] Through the above technical solution: the switch is electrically connected to the telescopic rod and the detection display respectively, and the extension and retraction of the telescopic rod can be controlled by the switch, thereby realizing the length of the handle coil and the angle of the support plate.
[0028] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0029] 1. In this utility model, by rotating the rotating rod, the driving bevel gear is driven to rotate, which in turn causes the driven bevel gear and the threaded rod to rotate. The connecting block drives the moving rod to slide inside the hollow column, thereby realizing the height adjustment of the bracket. The rotating support plate adjusts the angle of the handle coil. The telescopic rod pushes the limiting block and the sliding block to move, adjusting the front and rear position of the handle coil, thus realizing the precise position adjustment of the handle coil.
[0030] 2. In this utility model, by placing the rollers on both sides of the movable plate, which is fixedly connected to the detection display, into the slide groove, and using the rollers to roll in the slide groove, the limiters on both sides of the support box are rotated into the reserved holes, thus achieving stable installation of the detection display, enabling it to display relevant data normally and provide accurate information feedback to the operator.

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.
[0039] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4This utility model provides an embodiment of a highly stable transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) device support, comprising a support box 1. A groove 3 is provided on the rear side of the support box 1, providing space for the installation and movement of subsequent components. A threaded rod 4 is rotatably connected to the bottom inner side of the groove 3, and the threaded rod 4 can drive other components to move when rotated.

The right end of the rotating rod 6 passes through the support box 1. A drive bevel gear 7 is fixedly connected to the support box 1. The drive bevel gear 7 meshes with the driven bevel gear 5. Rotating the rotating rod 6 drives the drive bevel gear 7 to rotate, which in turn causes the driven bevel gear 5 and the threaded rod 4 to rotate. A movable block 8 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the threaded rod 4. The movable block 8 can move up and down when the threaded rod 4 rotates. A connecting block 9 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the movable block 8. A hollow column 10 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the support box 1. A movable rod 11 is slidably connected inside the hollow column 10. The movable rod 11 can move up and down inside the hollow column 10. The height can be adjusted by sliding. A telescopic assembly is rotatably connected to the top of the moving rod 11. The handle coil 17 can be used to adjust the angle. A mounting mechanism 2 is provided on the front side of the support box 1. The mounting mechanism 2 is used to install the detection display 205. The telescopic assembly includes a support plate 12. A sliding groove 13 is provided on the rear side of the moving rod 11. The sliding groove 13 provides sliding space for the sliding block 15. The bottom of the sliding groove 13 is connected to a moving groove 14. The moving groove 14 is used for the movement of the limiting block 16. The sliding block 15 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 13. 5. The sliding block 15 can drive the handle coil 17 to move. The bottom of the sliding block 15 is fixedly connected to the limit block 16, which is used to cooperate with the telescopic rod 19 to fix the angle. The rear end of the sliding block 15 is fixedly connected to the handle coil 17, which can be used to operate and adjust the angle. The bottom of the support plate 12 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 18, which is used to connect the support plate 12 and the telescopic rod 19.

[0040] Specifically, by rotating the rotating rod 6, the driving bevel gear 7 rotates, and the driven bevel gear 5 and the threaded rod 4 rotate accordingly. The moving block 8, which is threaded to the outer wall of the threaded rod 4, moves up and down under the action of the rotation of the threaded rod 4. The connecting block 9 drives the moving rod 11 to slide up and down in the hollow column 10, thereby realizing the adjustment of the height of the entire bracket. The angle of the handle coil 17 is adjusted by rotating the support plate 12. When the appropriate angle is reached, the switch 28 is turned on, so that the telescopic rod 19 pushes the limit block 16 to move inside the moving groove 14. At the same time, the sliding block 15 moves inside the sliding groove 13, adjusting the front and rear position of the handle coil 17, so that the user can make precise position adjustments to the handle coil 17.
[0041] Reference Figure 5The mounting mechanism 2 includes a second groove 201, which is located on the front side of the support box 1 to provide space for mounting the detection display 205. Slide grooves 202 are provided on both the left and right sides of the interior of the second groove 201, providing rolling tracks for the rollers 203. Rollers 203 are rotatably connected inside the multiple slide grooves 202, facilitating the sliding of the movable plate 204. One end of each roller 203 is rotatably connected to a corresponding movable plate 204, which is used to mount the detection display 205. The top of the movable plate 204 is fixedly connected to a detection display 205, which is used to display relevant data. The front left and right sides of the movable plate 204 are provided with reserved holes 206, which are used to cooperate with the limiters 207 to fix the movable plate 204. The left and right sides of the support box 1 are rotatably connected to the limiters 207. The limiters 207 can be rotated into the reserved holes 206 to fix the movable plate 204. The adjacent ends of the two limiters 207 pass through the support box 1 and rotate in the corresponding reserved holes 206.
[0042] Specifically, when the detection display 205 needs to be installed, the rollers 203 on both sides of the movable plate 204, which is fixedly connected to the detection display 205, are placed into the slide groove 202. The rollers 203 roll in the slide groove 202, so that the movable plate 204 can easily slide into the groove 201. After the movable plate 204 moves the detection display 205 to the appropriate position, the limiters 207 on the left and right sides of the support box 1 are rotated and rotated into the reserved hole 206. The detection display 205 can then display the relevant data normally, providing accurate information feedback to the operator.
[0043] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 Support frames 20 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the support box 1. The support frames 20 provide stable support for the support box 1. The bottom of the multiple support frames 20 is rotatably connected to the wheels 21, which make the support easy to move. Storage slots 22 are opened on the left and right sides of the support box 1. The storage slots 22 are used to store handles 23. The inside of the two storage slots 22 is rotatably connected to the handles 23, which are convenient for gripping and operating when the support needs to be moved. Multiple fixing blocks 24 are fixedly connected at equal intervals on the rear side of the support box 1. The fixing blocks 24 are used to connect the annular plate 25 and the support box 1. The rear ends of the multiple fixing blocks 24 are respectively fixedly connected to the corresponding annular plates 25. The annular plates 25 enhance the connection stability between the hollow column 10 and the support box 1. The front sides of the multiple annular plates 25 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the hollow column 10.
[0044] Specifically, the rotating wheel 21 at the bottom of the support frame 20 facilitates moving the transcranial magnetic stimulator bracket to different positions. The storage slot 22 provides storage space for the handle 23, which can be stored away when not in use. The annular plate 25 is fixed to the outer wall of the hollow column 10, enhancing the connection stability between the hollow column 10 and the support box 1 and preventing the hollow column 10 from shaking or shifting during use.
[0045] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 The top of the support box 1 is fixedly connected to a top plate 26, which enhances the overall structural stability of the support. The top of the top plate 26 has a placement groove 27, which is used to place the handle coil 17. The placement groove 27 fits against the handle coil 17 to ensure that the handle coil 17 is placed stably. The top of the support box 1 is fixedly connected to a switch 28, which is used to control the telescopic rod 19 and the detection display 205. The switch 28 is electrically connected to the telescopic rod 19 and the detection display 205 respectively.
[0046] Specifically, the placement slot 27 is fitted with the handle coil 17. When the handle coil 17 is not in use, it can be placed in the placement slot 27 to prevent it from being lost or damaged due to random placement. The switch 28 on the top of the support box 1 plays a control role. The switch 28 is electrically connected to the telescopic rod 19 and the detection display 205 respectively. The extension and retraction of the telescopic rod 19 can be controlled by the switch 28, thereby adjusting the position of the handle coil 17 and the support plate 12.
[0047] Working principle: When using the high-stability transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) device support, firstly, rotating the rotating rod 6 causes the driving bevel gear 7 to rotate, and the driven bevel gear 5 and threaded rod 4 rotate accordingly. The moving block 8, which is threaded to the outer wall of the threaded rod 4, moves up and down under the action of the rotation of the threaded rod 4. The connecting block 9 drives the moving rod 11 to slide up and down within the hollow column 10, thereby adjusting the height of the entire support. The angle of the handle coil 17 is adjusted by rotating the support plate 12. When the appropriate angle is reached, the switch 28 is turned on, causing the telescopic rod 19 to push the limiting block 16 into the moving groove 14. The part moves, and at the same time the sliding block 15 moves inside the sliding groove 13 to adjust the front and back position of the handle coil 17. When it is necessary to install the detection display 205, the rollers 203 on both sides of the moving plate 204, which is fixedly connected to the detection display 205, are placed into the sliding groove 202. The rollers 203 roll in the sliding groove 202, so that the moving plate 204 can easily slide into the groove 201. After the moving plate 204 moves the detection display 205 to the appropriate position, the limiters 207 on the left and right sides of the support box 1 are rotated, and the moving plate 204 is limited and fixed in the reserved hole 206.
[0048] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
