[0028] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, in order to enable the cable connecting the ultrasonic probe to be quickly replaced in case of breakage, this embodiment provides an ultrasonic probe adapter, including: a housing 100, a high-frequency probe 200, a sealing assembly 300, and a connector 400.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the housing 100 is a circular cylindrical structure, and a cavity is provided at the end of the housing 100. The cavity is a circular groove structure. The housing 100 can install the high-frequency probe 200, the sealing assembly 300, and the connector 400. In order to fix the ultrasonic probe to the housing 100, in a further embodiment, the inner wall of the cavity of the housing 100 is provided with a mating thread 110, and the ultrasonic probe can be connected and fixed to the housing 100 by means of the mating thread 110.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the high-frequency probe 200 can be connected to the ultrasonic probe. The high-frequency probe 200 is fixedly installed in the cavity of the housing 100 and is used for signal transmission of the ultrasonic probe.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, the sealing assembly 300 is installed at the edge of the cavity of the housing 100 and is used for waterproofing the interior of the housing 100. Specifically, as shown... Figure 3 As shown, the sealing component 300 is a waterproof rubber ring 310, which is installed on the edge of the cavity of the housing 100.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the connector 400 is detachably mounted on the surface of the housing 100, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the connector 400 is in contact with the high-frequency probe 200. The connector 400 is a Microdot universal connector, which can be used to connect adapters and signal receivers with universal cables. Universal cables can be easily replaced, and compared with integrated cables, they can be quickly replaced after the cable is damaged.

[0034] To allow connector 400 to be disassembled and replaced, and to accommodate more cables, a further solution is proposed, such as... Figure 2 As shown, a positioning component 500 is provided between the housing 100 and the connector 400. The positioning component 500 is used for a detachable connection between the housing 100 and the connector 400, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the housing 100 has several sliding grooves 120 inside. Each sliding groove 120 is a circular cylindrical groove capable of accommodating the positioning component 500 for sliding within it. Figure 4 As shown, the connector 400 has a plurality of slots 410, each slot 410 being a circular hole-shaped groove capable of accommodating the insertion or removal of the positioning component 500. The plurality of sliding grooves 120 and the plurality of slots 410 are arranged opposite to each other.

[0035] Specifically, the positioning component 500 includes: a plurality of insert rods 510, a plurality of levers 520, a plurality of connecting rods 530, a plurality of sliders 540, and a plurality of springs 550. The plurality of insert rods 510 are elongated cylindrical structures, which can be inserted into a plurality of slots 410. The plurality of insert rods 510 and the plurality of slots 410 are compatible. When the insert rod 510 is inserted into the slot 410, the connector 400 cannot be moved. When the insert rod 510 is removed from the slot 410, the connector 400 can be disassembled and replaced. The plurality of levers 520 are rectangular plate structures, which are fixed to the plurality of insert rods 510. When the levers 520 are moved, the insert rods 510 will also move with the levers 520, thereby realizing the removal or insertion of the insert rods 510 into the plurality of slots 410. The plurality of connecting rods 530 are elongated cylindrical structures, which are fixed to the plurality of levers 520 and can move with the levers 520. The plurality of connecting rods 530 extend into a plurality of sliding grooves 120 and are used to connect to sliding pieces 540. The 0 is a circular disc structure. The plurality of sliding plates 540 and the plurality of connecting rods 530 are fixed together. The plurality of sliding plates 540 are adapted to the plurality of sliding grooves 120 and slide within the plurality of sliding grooves 120. By setting the sliding plates 540, the movement range of the connecting rods 530 can be limited within the sliding grooves 120. The plurality of springs 550 are fixed together with the plurality of sliding plates 540, and the plurality of springs 550 are set in the plurality of sliding grooves 120 away from the plurality of slots 410. By setting the springs 550, when the lever 520 is used to move the insertion rod 510 out of the slot 410, the lever 520 will push the connecting rod 530 and the sliding plate 540 in sequence to compress the springs 550. After the connector 400 is replaced, the lever 520 is released, and the compressed springs 550 will push the sliding plates 540, the connecting rods 530, the lever 520, and the insertion rod 510 in sequence to re-insert into the slot 410 and complete the positioning and installation of the connector 400.

[0036] The embodiments of this application have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. This application is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of this application without departing from the spirit and scope of the claims, and all of these forms are within the protection scope of this application.
