[0046] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0047] like Figures 1-4 As shown in the figure, this embodiment proposes a spinal curvature measuring instrument, including: a base plate 1, a support frame 2, an adhesive plate 3, a slider 4, a transmission mechanism, a recording mechanism, a moving mechanism, and a lifting mechanism. Two guide rails 20 are fixedly connected inside the support frame 2, and two sliding grooves are opened on the slider 4. The two guide rails 20 are slidably connected in the two sliding grooves respectively. The support frame 2 is slidably connected to the top of the base plate 1. Two adhesive plates 3 are provided, and both adhesive plates 3 are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate 1. The slider 4 is slidably connected inside the support frame 2. Through the cooperation between the base plate 1, support frame 2, adhesive plate 3, slider 4, transmission mechanism, recording mechanism, moving mechanism, and lifting mechanism, the spinal curvature of the patient can be automatically measured and recorded without the need for medical personnel to assist in the operation, which saves time and effort and improves the measurement efficiency.

[0048] The transmission mechanism, mounted on the slider 4, is used to measure the curvature of the spine. The transmission mechanism includes a slide rod 5, a rotating seat 6, a contact wheel 7, and a support assembly. A rotating shaft 21 is rotatably connected inside the rotating seat 6, and the contact wheel 7 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 21. A sliding hole is provided on the slider 4, and the slide rod 5 is slidably connected to the slider 4 within this hole. The rotating seat 6 is fixedly connected to one end of the slide rod 5, and the contact wheel 7 is rotatably connected inside the rotating seat 6. The support assembly, mounted on the slide rod 5, supports the rotating seat 6 and includes a support ring 8, a support spring 9, and a stop. Plate 10 and support ring 8 are fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of slide rod 5. Support spring 9 is sleeved on the circumferential surface of slide rod 5. The two ends of support spring 9 are fixedly connected to support ring 8 and slider 4 respectively. Baffle 10 is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of slide rod 5. One side of baffle 10 contacts slider 4. Specifically, when slide rod 5 moves up and down, it drives contact wheel 7 in rotating seat 6 to roll on the patient's back. During the rolling process, slide rod 5 is affected by the curvature of the patient's spine and moves laterally on slider 4. Support ring 8 is supported by support spring 9, thereby supporting slide rod 5 to rebound.

[0049] The recording mechanism is mounted on the support frame 2 and is used to record curvature information. The recording mechanism includes a fixing ring 11, a recording pen 12, and a recording plate 13. The fixing ring 11 is fixedly connected to one end of the slide rod 5. The recording pen 12 is located inside the fixing ring 11. The recording plate 13 is fixedly connected to the support frame 2. One end of the recording pen 12 is in contact with the recording plate 13. Specifically, when the slide rod 5 moves, it drives the recording pen 12 to record the curvature of the spine on the recording plate 13.

[0050] The moving mechanism is mounted on the support frame 2 and is used to drive the slider 4 to move up and down. The moving mechanism includes a moving frame 14, a moving screw 15, and a first motor 16. The moving frame 14 is fixedly connected to the slider 4, and the moving screw 15 is rotatably connected to the support frame 2. The moving frame 14 has a screw hole, and the moving screw 15 is threaded into the screw hole. The first motor 16 is mounted on the support frame 2, and the output end of the first motor 16 is fixedly connected to the moving screw 15. Specifically, the first motor 16 drives the moving screw 15 to rotate. When the moving screw 15 rotates, it drives the moving frame 14 and the slider 4 to move up and down on the support frame 2. When the slider 4 moves up and down, it drives the sliding rod 5 to move synchronously.

[0051] The lifting mechanism is mounted on the base plate 1 and is used to drive the support frame 2 to move up and down. The lifting mechanism includes: a fixed block 17, guide rods 18, and a first electric cylinder 19. Limit plates 22 are fixedly connected to the top ends of the two guide rods 18. There are two fixed blocks 17, which are fixedly connected to the support frame 2. There are two guide rods 18, which are fixedly connected to the top end of the base plate 1. Guide holes are opened on the two fixed blocks 17, and the two guide rods 18 are slidably connected in the two guide holes respectively. The first electric cylinder 19 is installed on the top end of the base plate 1, and the output end of the first electric cylinder 19 is fixedly connected to the support frame 2. Specifically, the first electric cylinder 19 mounted on the base plate 1 drives the support frame 2 to move up and down. During the up and down movement, the support frame 2 causes the fixed block 17 to slide on the guide rods 18, thereby adjusting the height of the support frame 2 to accommodate the height of different patients.

[0052] In this embodiment, when it is necessary to measure the curvature of a patient's spine, the first electric cylinder 19 mounted on the base plate 1 drives the support frame 2 to move up and down. During this movement, the fixed block 17 slides on the guide rod 18, thereby adjusting the height of the support frame 2 to accommodate different patients' heights. The patient then stands on the base plate 1 with their back against the two fitting plates 3. At this time, the contact wheel 7 contacts the patient's back, and the first motor 16 drives the moving screw 15 to rotate. The rotation of the moving screw 15 drives the moving frame... 14 and slider 4 move up and down on support frame 2. When slider 4 moves up and down, it drives slider 5 to move synchronously. When slider 5 moves up and down, it drives contact wheel 7 in rotating seat 6 to roll on the patient's back. During the rolling process, slider 5 is affected by the curvature of the patient's spine and moves laterally on slider 4. It is supported by support spring 9 and support ring 8, so that slider 5 can rebound. Thus, contact wheel 7 is always in contact with the patient's back. When slider 5 moves, it drives recording pen 12 to record the curvature of the spine on recording board 13.

[0053] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
