Detailed Implementation

[0023] In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be practiced without one or more of these details. In other instances, certain technical features well-known in the art have not been described in order to avoid confusion with the present invention.

[0024] Unless otherwise defined, the directions mentioned herein, such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, and outside, are based on the directions shown in the figures of this utility model, and are explained here together.

[0025] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-5 The infrared focusing anti-interference blood oxygen saturation sensor shown includes a probe 1, a cable 2, and a plug 3. The cable 2 connects the plug 3 to the probe 1 to ensure stable signal transmission. The probe 1 is the core component, which includes a transmitter LED chip 5, a receiver PD chip 6, and medical non-woven fabric 4. The LED chip 5 and PD chip 6 are fixed on the same side of the medical non-woven fabric 4 with a spacing of 18.9-25.9mm. A foldable center line 7 is provided between them. When in use, the sensor is folded along this line so that the transmitter and receiver are located on both sides of the finger, ensuring that the light passes smoothly through the tissue being measured.

[0026] The medical nonwoven fabric 4 plays multiple key roles. First, it is made of breathable and skin-friendly material, which greatly improves wearing comfort and is especially suitable for people of different ages to use for a long time, reducing the risk of skin allergies. Second, the medical nonwoven fabric 4 has a copper-nickel alloy mesh embedded in the metal shielding layer 14, which can effectively shield external electromagnetic interference and ensure the stability and accuracy of the measurement signal. Third, the double-sided adhesive inner paper 8 on the other side of the medical nonwoven fabric 4 is made of medical pressure-sensitive adhesive and covered with transparent release paper 15. When using it, peeling off the release paper 15 can easily and firmly fix the probe 1 to the measurement site, and the pasting process is less irritating to the skin and meets hygiene standards.

[0027] The internal structure of the LED chip 5 is carefully designed, including a red light-emitting tube 9 and an infrared light-emitting tube 10, which are arranged in an array. This arrangement can enhance the intensity and uniformity of light emission, providing a stable light source for accurate measurement. The condenser lens 11 covering the surface of the LED chip 5 is an aspherical design, and its focal length is precisely matched with the distance between the emitting end and the receiving end. The condenser lens 11 is also surrounded by a ring-shaped light shield 12. The condenser lens 11 focuses the emitted light and improves the light transmission efficiency, while the ring-shaped light shield 12 blocks external stray light interference, further improving the accuracy of measurement.

[0028] The foldable centerline 7 has a built-in shape memory alloy hinge 13 that can automatically adjust the spacing within a pressure range of 0.1-5N. This design can automatically adapt to the finger thickness of different people, which not only ensures the stability of the measurement process, but also avoids the measurement results being affected by being too tight or too loose, greatly improving the applicability of the sensor.

[0029] In actual operation, first peel off the transparent release paper 15, fix the probe 1 to the finger or other part to be measured by the double-sided adhesive inner paper 8, fold the probe 1 along the foldable center line 7 so that the LED chip 5 and PD chip 6 are located on both sides of the finger. After the measurement is started, the red light-emitting tube 9 and the infrared light-emitting tube 10 in the LED chip 5 emit light. The light passes through the finger tissue and is received by the PD chip 6. During this process, the focusing lens 11 focuses the light, the ring light shield 12 blocks stray light, and the metal shielding layer 14 resists electromagnetic interference. The three work together to ensure the accuracy of the measurement signal. The measurement circuit processes the received light signal, calculates the blood oxygen saturation value, and transmits the data to the display device, such as a monitor or mobile APP, through the cable 2 for medical staff or users to view.

The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment adopt conventional models in the prior art, and the circuit connection adopts conventional connection methods in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here. The control method of this utility model is through a controller. The control circuit of the controller can be implemented by those skilled in the art through simple programming. The contents not described in detail in this specification belong to the prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0032] Working principle:

[0033] This infrared focusing anti-interference blood oxygen saturation sensor first peels off the transparent release paper 15, and fixes the probe 1 to the measured area (such as a finger) with the double-sided adhesive inner paper 8. Fold along the foldable center line 7 so that the LED chip 5 and PD chip 6 are located on both sides of the finger. The red light-emitting tube 9 and infrared light-emitting tube 10 in the LED chip 5 emit light. After the light passes through the tissue of the measured area, it is received by the PD chip 6. The focusing lens 11 focuses the emitted light to improve the light transmission efficiency. The ring light shield 12 blocks external stray light interference, and the metal shielding layer 14 prevents external electromagnetic interference to ensure the accuracy of the measurement signal. The measurement circuit calculates the blood oxygen saturation value based on the received light signal and transmits it to the display device (such as a monitor, mobile APP, etc.) for display through the cable 2.
