However, existing desktop tongue diagnosis instruments have some limitations in their design, especially regarding the detection height.
[0003] Traditional desktop tongue diagnostic instruments typically have a fixed detection height, making it impossible to adjust them flexibly according to the height of the person being examined. This forces taller individuals to adopt unnatural postures such as half-squatting or bending over to accommodate the instrument's height. Maintaining such postures for extended periods can easily cause discomfort and fatigue, and may even affect the accuracy of the tongue diagnosis, as the unnatural posture may alter the shape of the tongue.
[0004] Furthermore, the fixed height of tongue diagnostic instruments limits their application range, failing to meet the needs of people of different heights and reducing the device's versatility and convenience.

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0019] Please see Figure 1 A height adjustment device for a tongue diagnosis instrument includes a tongue diagnosis seat 1, which is the foundation of the entire device, providing a stable support platform. In practical design, the bottom of the tongue diagnosis seat 1 can be an independent, stable platform or fixedly placed in other medical environments. In this embodiment, the preferred tongue diagnosis seat is a segmented injection-molded component, fixed with fasteners or adhesives to form a hollow structure, and fixed to the bottom housing of the tongue diagnosis instrument with fasteners. A tongue diagnosis lifting frame 2 is slidably installed inside the tongue diagnosis seat. The upper end of the tongue diagnosis lifting frame is connected to the outer shell 3 of the tongue diagnosis camera device. The tongue diagnosis lifting frame 2 is a key component of the device; it is connected inside the tongue diagnosis seat 1 and can slide up and down vertically. A tongue diagnosis lifting mechanism 4 is provided between the tongue diagnosis seat and the tongue diagnosis lifting frame for adjusting the height of the tongue diagnosis camera. The design of the tongue diagnosis lifting frame 2 in the above structure ensures its stability and durability during sliding. At the upper end of the tongue diagnosis lifting frame 2, there is a tongue diagnosis camera device housing 3. In this way, when the tongue diagnosis lifting frame 2 slides up and down, the tongue diagnosis camera will also move accordingly, thereby adjusting its height.
[0020] Preferably, the tongue diagnosis lifting mechanism 4 includes a linear slide rail 4-1 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the tongue diagnosis base, and a slider 4-2 slidably mounted on the linear slide rail. The design of the linear slide rail 4-1 ensures the smoothness and accuracy of the slider 4-2 during sliding. The slider is fixedly connected to the tongue diagnosis lifting frame 2. When the slider 4-2 slides on the linear slide rail 4-1, it will drive the tongue diagnosis lifting frame 2 to move up and down together, thereby realizing the adjustment of the height of the tongue diagnosis camera. A positioning component 4-3 is provided on the tongue diagnosis base for fixing the tongue diagnosis lifting frame relative to the tongue diagnosis base.
[0021] Preferably, the positioning component is a pull-out positioning pin, which has advantages such as simple structure, convenient operation, and accurate positioning. Corresponding to the pull-out positioning pin, the tongue diagnosis lifting frame has N positioning holes 2-1 along the height direction, where N is a natural number ≥ 2. These positioning holes 2-1 are used to cooperate with the pull-out positioning pin to fix the tongue diagnosis lifting frame 2 at different height positions. The number and position of the positioning holes 2-1 are designed according to actual needs to ensure that the device can meet the detection needs of people of different heights. When the tongue diagnosis lifting frame 2 is adjusted to a suitable height, simply insert the pull-out positioning pin into the corresponding positioning hole to fix the position of the tongue diagnosis lifting frame 2; the positioning component 4-3 adopts a pull-out positioning pin.
[0022] The working principle of the height adjustment device for the tongue diagnosis detector in this embodiment is as follows:
[0023] Height Adjustment: When adjusting the height of the tongue diagnosis camera, first loosen the pull-out positioning pin to allow the tongue diagnosis lifting frame 2 to slide freely. Then, manually or electrically push the tongue diagnosis lifting frame 2 up and down on the linear slide rail 4-1 until the tongue diagnosis camera reaches the appropriate height.
[0024] Positioning: After the tongue diagnosis camera is adjusted to the appropriate height, insert the pull-out positioning pin into the corresponding positioning hole 2-1 to fix the position of the tongue diagnosis lifting frame 2 relative to the tongue diagnosis seat 1. In this way, the tongue diagnosis camera can maintain a stable height and position during the detection process.
[0025] Tongue diagnosis: The person being examined extends their tongue, and the tongue diagnosis camera, located inside the casing 3 of the device, captures an image of the tongue for subsequent analysis and diagnosis. Because the height of the tongue diagnosis camera can be adjusted according to the height of the person being examined, it ensures the capture of clear and accurate tongue images, improving the accuracy and reliability of tongue diagnosis.
[0026] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model.
