[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0028] Example

[0029] Reference Figure 1-5 A medical device-specific wiring harness includes an integrated head 1, a machine-end connection cable 5, and a patient-end lead cable 7, wherein: one end of the integrated head 1 is plugged in and installed with the corresponding patient-end lead cable 7, and the other end of the integrated head 1 is fixedly installed with the machine-end connection cable 5.

[0030] One end of the patient-end lead wire 7 is provided with a patient-end connector 71, and a metal memory strip 74 is fixedly installed in the protective sheath of the patient-end lead wire 7;

[0031] Specifically, the metal memory strip 74 is made of nickel-titanium alloy to provide the patient-end lead wires 7 with a certain degree of support and strength, preventing them from being too soft. This prevents the patient-end lead wires 7 from getting tangled when they move. At the same time, it is easy to bend and store later. Because the metal memory strip 74 has good shaping ability, after storage, the patient-end lead wires 7 can be stored in the required shape without the need for any external fasteners, making it more convenient and flexible.

[0032] The length of the metal memory strip 74 is less than the length of the patient-end lead wire 7. The metal memory strip 74 is located on the side of the patient-end lead wire 7 away from the patient-end connector 71. The distance between the metal memory strip 74 and the patient-end connector 71 is five to ten centimeters so that the patient-end connector 71 will not be affected by the metal memory strip 74 during contact with the human body, thereby ensuring the flexibility of the patient-end connector 71 during contact with the human body.

[0033] The other end of the machine-end connection cable 5 is provided with an integrated machine-end connector 6;

[0034] The connection end between the integrated head 1 and the patient-end lead wire 7 is detachably and fixedly equipped with a protective cap 9; the length of the protective cap 9 is the same as the length of the integrated head 1, so as to fix the connection end between the integrated head 1 and the patient-end lead wire 7 through the protective cap 9, and prevent the patient-end lead wire 7 from accidentally separating from the integrated head 1.

[0035] In this embodiment, the circumferential surface of the integrated head 1 is uniformly provided with a plurality of U-shaped grooves 2 and sockets 3. The sockets 3 are located in the corresponding U-shaped grooves 2 and are connected to the corresponding U-shaped grooves 2. Each socket 3 of the integrated head 1 is fixedly installed with a plug 4. The plug 4 is electrically connected to the machine end connection line 5. The opening at one end of the U-shaped groove 2 faces the side of the patient end lead line 7. The patient end lead line 7 is electrically connected to the corresponding plug 4 through the corresponding U-shaped groove 2 and socket 3 in a plug-in manner. The arrangement of the U-shaped groove 2 and socket 3 facilitates plugging and unplugging between the socket 73 and the plug 4. At the same time, when the patient end lead line 7 is subjected to axial tensile force, it prevents the patient end lead line 7 from separating from the plug 4.

[0036] In this embodiment, the connection end between the patient-end lead wire 7 and the integrated head 1 is provided with a support block 72 corresponding to the U-shaped groove 2. The support block 72 and the U-shaped groove 2 are plugged and plugged in to ensure the flatness of the overall connection. A socket 73 corresponding to the plug 4 is fixedly installed on the support block 72. The socket 73 is electrically connected to the patient-end connector 71 through the patient-end lead wire 7. The socket 73 is plugged and plugged in to the corresponding plug 4 through the socket 3.

[0037] In this embodiment, the outer side of the integrated head 1 near the machine end connection line 5 is provided with an external thread 8. The integrated head 1 is connected to the protective cap 9 through the external thread 8 so that the protective cap 9 and the integrated head 1 can be adjusted in position.

[0038] In this embodiment, the top of the protective cap 9 is provided with a through hole 10 corresponding to the machine end connection line 5, and the machine end connection line 5 passes through the through hole 10.

[0039] In this embodiment, an anti-slip groove 11 is provided on the outer side of the protective cap 9 near the through hole 10, so as to prevent the hand from slipping when rotating the protective cap 9;

[0040] Specifically, when it is necessary to replace the patient-end lead wire 7, rotate the protective cap 9 counterclockwise to move the protective cap 9 away from the patient-end lead wire 7 until the support block 72 is completely exposed. Then, pull out the support block 72 to separate the socket 73 from the plug 4. Then, replace the new patient-end lead wire 7 and rotate the protective cap 9 clockwise until the support block 72 is completely hidden in the protective cap 9.

[0041] Any technical solution that achieves the above-mentioned technical effects by utilizing the technical solution described in this utility model, or by designing a similar technical solution inspired by the technical solution described in this utility model, falls within the protection scope of this utility model.
