Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of probes, specifically a probe for a blood oxygen concentration monitor. Background Technology

[0002] Blood oxygen concentration, usually referring to blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), is the percentage of oxygenated hemoglobin (HbO2) in the blood that is bound to oxygen, relative to the total amount of hemoglobin (Hb) that can bind to oxygen. In other words, it's the concentration of oxygen in the blood. Normal human arterial blood oxygen saturation is around 98%, and venous blood is around 75%. Blood oxygen saturation is an important physiological parameter for respiration and circulation, reflecting the functional status of the respiratory and cardiovascular systems. If blood oxygen concentration is too low, it may indicate health problems such as lung disease, cardiovascular disease, or anemia, which can affect oxygen uptake, transport, or utilization, leading to a decrease in blood oxygen saturation. Because blood oxygen concentration is a good indicator of health, it is an essential part of health checks.

[0003] One existing probe for a blood oxygen saturation monitor typically integrates the monitor's sensor within a set of adhesive tape. The tape contains a sensor light-emitting block and a sensor receiving block. When the probe is needed to detect a patient's blood oxygen saturation, the wire at one end of the sensor is first connected to one side of the monitor. Then, the protective film on the adhesive side is removed. Next, the sensor light-emitting block is placed on the designated detection position on the patient's finger. Finally, the adhesive tape is wrapped around the patient's finger to securely mount the sensor between the fingers, thus achieving the detection effect.

[0004] However, for existing pulse oximeter probes, if the sensor's light-emitting block is not aligned before adhesive bonding, or if other situations require peeling off and re-adhering the adhesive, the rubber adhesive may not adhere firmly, affecting the sensor's fixation on the patient's finger and thus impacting the device's detection performance. Furthermore, existing pulse oximeter probes typically use tape to secure the sensor's lead wire after installation to prevent it from shifting and affecting the monitor's performance. This approach does not consider that some patients may have skin ulcers or other reasons that prevent them from contacting the tape, making it difficult to secure the lead wire and reducing the device's practicality. Utility Model Content

[0005] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a probe for a blood oxygen concentration monitor to solve the technical problem of poor performance of existing blood oxygen concentration monitor probes.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a probe for a blood oxygen concentration monitor, comprising a rubber adhesive, one side of which is provided with a rough edge adhesive, and the other side of which is provided with a barbed edge adhesive. A sensor is disposed inside the rubber adhesive, a wire is fixedly installed on one side of the sensor, rotating protrusions are installed on both sides of the wire, an mounting block is movably installed inside the rotating protrusion, a rubber sleeve is provided at one end of the mounting block, and an internal steel wire is disposed inside the rubber sleeve.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the problem of poor performance of existing pulse oximeter probes is solved. A rubber adhesive is incorporated, with adhesive on one end of the rubber adhesive where the sensor light-emitting block and sensor receiver block are located, and a rough-edged adhesive on the other end. A barbed adhesive is also provided on the other side of the rubber adhesive. When the probe needs to be installed on the patient's fingertip, the protective film on the adhesive side is removed, allowing the rubber adhesive to be fixed to the patient's finger. The rubber adhesive is then wrapped around the fingertip, aligning the sensor light-emitting block and sensor receiver block, thus achieving the desired performance. The rough-edged and barbed adhesive on the rubber adhesive ensures that the probe achieves its intended function. To achieve the desired installation effect, if the sensor light-emitting block is not aligned before adhesive bonding, or if other situations arise requiring the adhesive rubber to be peeled off and re-adheded, the re-adhesive rubber will still have good fixing ability due to the reusable nature of the rough edge and barbed edge adhesive. This will not affect the normal use of the device. Both the rough edge and barbed edge adhesive are located on the side of the rubber adhesive, and their width is smaller than the width of the rubber adhesive. When the rubber adhesive is being wrapped, they need to be aligned to achieve a fixing effect, preventing the rubber adhesive from deviating to one side during the wrapping process, which would affect the adhesion between the sensor light-emitting block, the sensor receiving block, and the skin.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that the rubber sleeve is made of relatively soft rubber, the diameter of the built-in steel wire is half the diameter of the rubber sleeve, and the rubber sleeve covers the built-in steel wire.

[0009] Preferably, by making the rubber sleeve a relatively soft rubber, and the diameter of the internal steel wire being half the diameter of the rubber sleeve, the internal steel wire is made easy to bend, enhancing the practicality of the device. The rubber sleeve covers the internal steel wire, enabling the rubber sleeve to protect the internal steel wire and prevent the internal steel wire from puncturing the patient.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that a sensor light-emitting block and a sensor receiving block are provided on one side of the rubber adhesive, and the sensor light-emitting block and the sensor receiving block are spaced apart by a certain distance.

[0011] Preferably, a sensor light-emitting block and a sensor receiving block are provided on one side of the rubber adhesive, with a certain distance between them, so that the sensor light-emitting block and the sensor receiving block can transmit signals to each other, thereby enabling the monitoring instrument to achieve its intended function.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that, on one end of the rubber adhesive, which is provided with the sensor light-emitting block and the sensor receiving block, an adhesive is provided, and on the other end of the rubber adhesive, a rough edge adhesive is provided.

[0013] Preferably, by providing adhesive at one end of the rubber adhesive where the sensor light-emitting block and sensor receiver block are located, and providing a rough edge sticker at the other end of the same side, the rubber adhesive can be fixed to the patient's fingertip by the adhesive. The rough edge sticker can cooperate with the thorn-edge sticker, so that the sensor light-emitting block and sensor receiver block located inside the rubber adhesive can be tightly attached to the patient's skin, thereby achieving the ideal detection effect.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that the length of the barbed edge adhesive is greater than the length of the rough edge adhesive, so that the barbed edge adhesive can be pasted on the rough edge adhesive.

[0015] Preferably, by setting the length of the barbed edge adhesive to be greater than the length of the rough edge adhesive, the rough edge adhesive is prevented from being too long, which would affect the adhesion between the adhesive and the skin. The barbed edge adhesive can be pasted on the rough edge adhesive, so that the rubber adhesive can achieve the desired effect.

[0016] The present invention is further configured such that two sets of rough edge adhesive and barbed edge adhesive are provided, and both rough edge adhesive and barbed edge adhesive are provided on the side of the rubber adhesive side.

[0017] Preferably, by providing two sets of both rough edge adhesive and barbed edge adhesive, and placing both rough edge adhesive and barbed edge adhesive on the side of the rubber adhesive, the installation effect of the rough edge adhesive and barbed edge adhesive is enhanced, making the device more practical.

[0018] The present invention is further configured such that the width of the rough edge adhesive and the burr edge adhesive are both smaller than the width of the rubber adhesive, and the diameter of the rubber sleeve is much smaller than the diameter of the wire.

[0019] Preferably, by setting the width of the rough edge sticker and the barbed edge sticker to be smaller than the width of the rubber adhesive, the rubber adhesive needs to be aligned with each other when it is wrapped to achieve a fixing effect, so as to prevent the rubber adhesive from deviating to one side during the wrapping process, which would affect the adhesion between the sensor light-emitting block, the sensor receiving block and the skin. The diameter of the rubber sleeve is much smaller than the diameter of the wire, so as to prevent the diameter of the rubber sleeve and the built-in steel wire inside the rubber sleeve from being too large, which would affect the bending effect of the rubber sleeve and the built-in steel wire.

[0020] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0021] 1. This utility model solves the problem of poor performance of probes in existing blood oxygenation monitors by incorporating rubber adhesive, rough-edged adhesive, barbed adhesive, wires, rotating protrusions, rubber sleeves, mounting blocks, and built-in steel wires. The rubber adhesive has adhesive at one end (where the sensor light-emitting block and sensor receiver block are located) and rough-edged adhesive at the other end. The other side of the rubber adhesive has barbed adhesive. When the probe needs to be installed on the patient's fingertip, the protective film on the adhesive side is removed, allowing the rubber adhesive to be fixed to the patient's finger. The rubber adhesive is then wrapped around the fingertip, aligning the sensor light-emitting block and sensor receiver block, thus achieving the desired effect. The rubber adhesive provides a secure mounting. The rough-edged and barbed-edged adhesive strips enable the rubber adhesive to achieve the ideal installation effect. When the sensor light-emitting block is not aligned before bonding, or when other situations arise requiring the adhesive rubber to be torn off and re-bonded, the rough-edged and barbed-edged adhesive strips, being reusable, still maintain good fixing ability and do not affect the normal use of the device. Both the rough-edged and barbed-edged adhesive strips are located on the side of the rubber adhesive, and their width is smaller than the width of the rubber adhesive. When the rubber adhesive is wrapped, they need to be aligned to achieve a fixing effect, preventing the rubber adhesive from deviating to one side during the wrapping process, which would affect the adhesion between the sensor light-emitting block, the sensor receiving block, and the skin.

[0022] 2. This utility model features a wire with rotating protrusions fixedly installed on both sides. An installation block is movably installed within each rotating protrusion and fixedly mounted on one side of a rubber sleeve. The rubber sleeve contains a small-diameter internal steel wire. After the sensor is attached to the patient's fingertip via rubber adhesive, the rubber sleeve is rotated to both sides of the patient's wrist by the cooperation of the installation block and the rotating protrusion. Then, the two sets of rubber sleeves are bent and twisted together to one side using the internal steel wire, allowing the wire to be installed on the patient's wrist. This design is simple to operate and avoids close contact with the patient's skin, enhancing the device's practicality. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0030] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-4 The device includes a rubber adhesive 1, with a rough edge adhesive 2 on one side and a barbed edge adhesive 3 on the other side. The rough edge adhesive 2 and barbed edge adhesive 3 allow the rubber adhesive 1 to be installed on the patient's fingertip. A sensor is installed inside the rubber adhesive 1, and a wire 4 is fixedly installed on one side of the sensor. The wire 4 enables data communication between the sensor and the monitoring device, thus achieving the desired effect. Rotating protrusions 5 are installed on both sides of the wire 4, and an installation block 61 is movably installed within each rotating protrusion 5. A rubber sleeve 6 is installed at one end of the installation block 61, and an internal steel wire 62 is installed inside the rubber sleeve 6. The internal steel wire 62 provides the rubber sleeve 6 with a certain strength, thus achieving a bending and fixing effect.

[0032] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 and Figure 3 The rubber sleeve 6 is made of relatively soft rubber, and the diameter of the built-in steel wire 62 is half the diameter of the rubber sleeve 6. The rubber sleeve 6 covers the built-in steel wire 62. By making the rubber sleeve 6 of relatively soft rubber and the diameter of the built-in steel wire 62 of half the diameter of the rubber sleeve 6, the built-in steel wire 62 is easy to bend, which enhances the practicality of the device. The rubber sleeve 6 covers the built-in steel wire 62, so that the rubber sleeve 6 can protect the built-in steel wire 62 and prevent the built-in steel wire 62 from puncturing the patient.

[0033] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 A sensor light-emitting block and a sensor receiving block are provided on one side of the rubber adhesive 1. The sensor light-emitting block and the sensor receiving block are spaced a certain distance apart. By providing a sensor light-emitting block and a sensor receiving block on one side of the rubber adhesive 1, and spaced a certain distance apart, the sensor light-emitting block and the sensor receiving block can transmit signals to each other, thereby enabling the monitoring instrument to achieve its intended function.

[0034] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 The rubber adhesive 1 has adhesive on one end of the side where the sensor light-emitting block and sensor receiver block are located, and a rough edge sticker 2 on the other end of the side. By attaching adhesive to one end of the side where the sensor light-emitting block and sensor receiver block are located, and a rough edge sticker 2 on the other end of the side, the rubber adhesive 1 can be fixed to the patient's fingertip by adhesive. The rough edge sticker 2 can cooperate with the thorn edge sticker 3, so that the sensor light-emitting block and sensor receiver block set in the rubber adhesive 1 can be tightly attached to the patient's skin, thereby achieving the ideal detection effect.

[0035] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 and Figure 4 The length of the barbed edge sticker 3 is greater than the length of the rough edge sticker 2. The barbed edge sticker 3 can be pasted on the rough edge sticker 2. By setting the length of the barbed edge sticker 3 to be greater than the length of the rough edge sticker 2, the rough edge sticker 2 is prevented from being too long, which would affect the adhesion between the adhesive and the skin. The barbed edge sticker 3 can be pasted on the rough edge sticker 2, so that the rubber adhesive 1 can achieve the desired effect.

[0036] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 and Figure 3 Two sets of rough edge sticker 2 and barbed edge sticker 3 are provided, and both rough edge sticker 2 and barbed edge sticker 3 are located on the side of the rubber adhesive 1. By providing two sets of rough edge sticker 2 and barbed edge sticker 3 and placing them on the side of the rubber adhesive 1, the installation effect of rough edge sticker 2 and barbed edge sticker 3 is enhanced, making the device more practical.

[0037] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 and Figure 3 The widths of the rough edge sticker 2 and the barbed edge sticker 3 are both smaller than the width of the rubber adhesive 1, and the diameter of the rubber sleeve 6 is much smaller than the diameter of the wire 4. By setting the widths of the rough edge sticker 2 and the barbed edge sticker 3 to be smaller than the width of the rubber adhesive 1, the rubber adhesive 1 needs to be aligned with each other to achieve a fixing effect when it is wrapped. This prevents the rubber adhesive 1 from deviating to one side during the wrapping process, which would affect the adhesion between the sensor light-emitting block, the sensor receiving block, and the skin. The diameter of the rubber sleeve 6 is much smaller than the diameter of the wire 4 to prevent the diameters of the rubber sleeve 6 and the built-in steel wire 62 inside the rubber sleeve 6 from being too large, which would affect the bending effect of the rubber sleeve 6 and the built-in steel wire 62.

[0038] In practical operation, when the probe is needed to detect a patient's blood oxygen concentration, the lead wire 4 must first be connected to the monitor to enable its function. A sensor is installed at one end of the lead wire 4, and the sensor is fixedly installed inside the rubber adhesive 1. A sensor light-emitting block and a sensor receiving block are provided on one side of the rubber adhesive 1. Adhesive is provided at one end of the side of the rubber adhesive 1 where the sensor light-emitting block and sensor receiving block are located, and a rough edge adhesive 2 is provided at the other end. A barbed edge adhesive 3 is provided on the other side of the rubber adhesive 1. When it is necessary to install the probe on the patient's fingertip... Remove the protective film from the adhesive side, allowing the rubber adhesive 1 to be fixed to the patient's finger. Wrap the rubber adhesive 1 around the fingertip, aligning the sensor light-emitting block and the sensor receiving block for optimal performance. The rough edge adhesive 2 and the barbed edge adhesive 3 fixed to the rubber adhesive 1 ensure ideal installation. If the sensor light-emitting block is not aligned and the rubber adhesive 1 needs to be re-adheded, or if other situations arise requiring the re-adhesive rubber adhesive 1 to be peeled off and re-adheded, the rough edge adhesive 2 and the barbed edge adhesive 3 are reusable. The newly bonded rubber adhesive 1 still has good fixing ability and does not affect the normal use of the device. Both the rough edge adhesive 2 and the barbed edge adhesive 3 are located on the side of one side of the rubber adhesive 1. The width of both the rough edge adhesive 2 and the barbed edge adhesive 3 is smaller than the width of the rubber adhesive 1. When the rubber adhesive 1 is being wrapped, they need to be aligned to achieve a fixing effect, preventing the rubber adhesive 1 from deviating to one side during the wrapping process, which would affect the adhesion between the sensor light-emitting block, the sensor receiving block, and the skin, thus interfering with the monitoring instrument's performance. Simultaneously, rotating protrusions 5 are fixedly installed on both sides of the wire 4. An installation block 61 is installed inside the device and is fixedly installed on one side of the rubber sleeve 6. The rubber sleeve 6 contains a small-diameter built-in steel wire 62. After the sensor is attached to the patient's fingertip by the rubber adhesive 1, the rubber sleeve 6 is rotated to both sides of the patient's wrist by the cooperation of the installation block 61 and the rotating protrusion 5. Then, the two sets of rubber sleeves 6 are bent and twisted together to one side by the built-in steel wire 62, so that the wire 4 can be installed on the patient's wrist. The operation is simple and avoids close contact with the patient's skin, enhancing the practicality of the device.
