Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of blood pressure monitor technology, and in particular to an adjustable arm electronic blood pressure monitor. Background Technology

[0002] A sphygmomanometer is an instrument for measuring blood pressure. Traditional sphygmomanometers are generally mercury sphygmomanometers or spring-loaded sphygmomanometers, but with technological advancements, electronic sphygmomanometers have become increasingly widely used. Electronic sphygmomanometers typically consist of an occlusion cuff, a sensor, an inflation pump, and a measurement circuit. They measure blood pressure using oscillometric methods, Korotkoff sound methods, or similar non-invasive indirect blood pressure measurement principles.

[0003] Existing arm-type blood pressure monitors, such as the one disclosed in patent CN221154086U, require the cuff to be strapped to the upper arm for use. The pressure sensor inside the cuff then measures blood pressure, and the cuff is removed and stored after the measurement is complete. However, this method is rather cumbersome, requiring the user to put on the cuff themselves or with assistance. This is particularly inconvenient for middle-aged and elderly users and therefore requires improvement. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model discloses an adjustable arm-type electronic blood pressure monitor, including a blood pressure monitor body, an elbow support, a sleeve assembly, an air bladder, and an arm support. The elbow support and the blood pressure monitor body are an integral structure. The top of the elbow support is provided with a groove for supporting the elbow. The rear of the elbow support is provided with a rotating seat. The bottom of the sleeve assembly is provided with a rotating bracket. The rotating bracket is rotatably mounted on the rotating seat, so that the sleeve assembly can rotate up and down around the elbow support. The air bladder is located on the inner wall of the sleeve assembly and is connected to the blood pressure monitor body through a hose. The arm support is movably mounted on the front side of the elbow support.

[0005] Furthermore, the sleeve assembly includes a base, a support sleeve, and a cylinder. The support sleeve is disposed at the front end of the base, and a groove is provided in the inner wall of the cylinder. The support sleeve is slidably disposed in the groove, and the airbag is disposed inside the cylinder.

[0006] Furthermore, the outer wall of the support sleeve is provided with multiple damping rings at intervals, and the inside of the sliding groove is provided with multiple limiting grooves accordingly.

[0007] Furthermore, the elbow support has a dovetail groove at the front and a corresponding dovetail block at the rear of the arm support.

[0008] Furthermore, a liner is provided inside the groove.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0010] When using this invention, the sleeve assembly is adjusted to a suitable angle, and the user inserts their arm into the air bladder inside the sleeve assembly. The blood pressure monitor body inflates the air bladder and provides support to the elbow and forearm through the elbow rest and arm rest, respectively, improving the convenience and comfort of use.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0018] It should be noted that all directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in this utility model embodiment are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.

[0019] In the description of the embodiments, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "set," "connect," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or a connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0020] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the adjustable arm electronic blood pressure monitor in this embodiment includes a blood pressure monitor body 1, an elbow support 2, a sleeve assembly 3, an air bladder 4, and an arm support 5. The elbow support 2 and the blood pressure monitor body 1 are an integral structure, and the blood pressure monitor body 1 adopts conventional technical means in the field, and integrates modules such as a measurement circuit, an air pump, an air exhaust valve, and a power supply.

[0021] The elbow support 2 has a groove at the top for supporting the elbow, and a pad 6 is provided in the groove to improve elbow comfort.

[0022] The elbow support 2 is provided with a rotating seat 7 at the rear, and the sleeve assembly 3 is provided with a rotating bracket 8 at the bottom. The rotating bracket 8 is rotatably mounted on the rotating seat 7, so that the sleeve assembly 3 can be rotated up and down around the elbow support 2 to adjust it to a suitable angle.

[0023] The armrest 5 is movably mounted on the front side of the elbow rest 2 to support the user's forearm; the elbow rest 2 has a dovetail groove 9 at the front and a dovetail block 10 at the rear of the armrest 5. The armrest 5 and the elbow rest 2 can be installed and removed by the cooperation of the dovetail block 10 and the dovetail groove 9.

[0024] like Figure 3 As shown, the airbag 4 is disposed on the inner wall of the sleeve assembly 3 and connected to the inflation pump inside the blood pressure monitor body 1 through the hose 11. The sleeve assembly 3 includes a sleeve base 12, a support sleeve 13 and a cylinder 14. The support sleeve 13 is disposed at the front end of the sleeve base 12. A groove 15 is provided in the inner wall of the cylinder 14. The support sleeve 13 is slidably disposed in the groove 15. The airbag 4 is disposed inside the cylinder 14.

[0025] The outer wall of the support sleeve 13 is provided with multiple damping rings 16 at intervals, and the inside of the slide groove 15 is provided with multiple limiting grooves 17. The multiple damping rings 16 are respectively set in the multiple limiting grooves 17. The overall length of the sleeve assembly can be adjusted by pulling the cylinder 14 to meet the usage needs of different users.

[0026] When using this invention, first adjust the sleeve assembly 3 to a suitable angle, then the user should sit down and insert their upper arm into the airbag 4 inside the sleeve assembly 3, with their palm facing up and relaxed without exerting force, and try to ensure that the airbag 4 is at the same height as the heart. Then take 5-6 deep breaths to start the measurement.

[0027] Press the measurement button on the blood pressure monitor body 1, and the air pump inflates the air bladder 4, so that the air bladder 4 tightly wraps around the outside of the upper arm. The pressure sensor inside the air bladder 4 begins to sense the pressure of the brachial artery. As the pressure of the air bladder 4 increases, the brachial artery is eventually closed, at which point the pressure value is at its maximum.

[0028] As the air vent valve slowly releases air, the brachial artery gradually opens. During each cardiac cycle, a pressure value is generated when blood flows rapidly across the brachial artery. This pressure value is the systolic pressure. As the pressure of the air bladder 4 decreases, the brachial artery fully opens, and the pressure sensor no longer detects a pressure value. During this process, the last pressure value detected by the pressure sensor is the diastolic pressure.

[0029] After the measurement is completed, the blood pressure and pulse rate are automatically displayed on the screen.

[0030] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Furthermore, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the protection scope claimed by this utility model.
