[0031] Among ultrasound therapy devices, there is a type of modular product, consisting of a main unit and a trolley. These two separate parts need to be assembled into a single unit for use, and then separated for transport. During assembly and separation, in addition to assembling or separating the mechanical structures of the main unit and the trolley, it is also necessary to connect or disconnect the electrical connections between the main unit's hardware and the trolley.
[0032] Currently, one of the most common electrical connection methods between the main unit and the trolley is to achieve electrical connection by plugging and socketing. Since the two are in hard contact, the plug is prone to bending due to assembly stress, which affects the connection.
[0033] This invention proposes a floating structure 10 and a therapeutic device 100, aiming to achieve a floating connection between the two parts efficiently and conveniently to eliminate assembly stress.
[0034] Please see Figures 1 to 7 In one embodiment of the present invention, the floating structure 10 includes a first connector 11, a limiting member 12, and a first electrical connector 13. The first connector 11 has a clearance opening. The limiting member 12 is connected to the first connector 11. The connecting end of the first electrical connector 13 is located at the clearance opening. The first electrical connector 13 can move along the end face direction parallel to the clearance opening. The limiting member 12 is used to limit the movement of the first electrical connector 13.
[0035] In this embodiment, the floating structure 10 is disposed at the bottom of the main unit 30 or the top of the trolley 40. The floating structure 10 includes a first connector 11, a limiting member 12, and a first electrical connector 13. The connection end of the first electrical connector 13 is located at the clearance opening of the first connector 11 for electrical connection with the main unit 30 or the trolley 40. The first connector 11 may be plate-shaped to fit the bottom shape of the main unit 30 or the top shape of the trolley 40. The material of the first connector 11 may be an insulating material, such as rigid plastic, to prevent conductivity. The connection between the limiting member 12 and the first connector 11 may be a detachable connection, such as a snap-fit connection, or it may be an integrally formed connection, and it is used to restrict the movement of the first electrical connector 13 in the direction parallel to the end face of the clearance opening. When the first electrical connector 13 is plugged into another electrical connector, the first electrical connector 13 can be pushed to move slightly in the direction of the limiting member 12 along the end face parallel to the relief opening, which can eliminate the assembly stress caused by plugging and prevent the first electrical connector 13 from bending during plugging.
[0036] The floating structure 10 in the technical solution of this utility model includes a first connector 11, a limiting member 12, and a first electrical connector 13. When the first electrical connector 13 is plugged into another electrical connector, it can push the first electrical connector 13 to move slightly in the direction of the limiting member 12 along the end face parallel to the clearance opening. This can eliminate the assembly stress caused by the plugging and prevent the first electrical connector 13 from bending during plugging, which would cause the electrical connection to fail.
[0037] In one embodiment of the present invention, the limiting member 12 includes a first connecting part 121 and a first pressing part 122. The first connecting part 121 is used to connect with the first connecting member 11 and a floating gap is formed between it and the first electrical connecting member 13 in the direction parallel to the end face of the clearance opening. The first pressing part 122 is used to press the first electrical connecting member 13 against the first connecting member 11 to restrict the vertical movement of the first electrical connecting member 13.
[0038] In this embodiment, the limiting member 12 includes a first connecting portion 121 and a first pressing portion 122. The first connecting portion 121 and the first pressing portion 122 can be two integrally formed parts or connected by bonding or welding. The first connecting portion 121 is used to connect with the first connecting member 11. The specific connection method can be a threaded connection, or a snap-fit or plug-in connection, etc., which is not further limited here. A floating gap is formed between the first electrical connector 13 and the first connecting portion 121 in the direction parallel to the end face of the clearance opening, so that the first electrical connector 13 can move slightly in the direction parallel to the end face of the clearance opening. The first pressing portion 122 abuts the first electrical connector 13 against the surface of the first connecting member 11 to limit the movement of the first electrical connector 13 in the vertical direction and prevent the first electrical connector 13 from disengaging from the clearance opening in the vertical direction, thereby causing the electrical connection to fail.
[0039] In one embodiment of this utility model, there are two limiting members 12. The two limiting members 12 are respectively disposed at opposite ends of the first electrical connector 13 in the direction parallel to the end face of the clearance opening. The two first connecting parts 121 and the first electrical connector 13 form a floating gap in the direction parallel to the end face of the clearance opening.
[0040] In this embodiment, there are two limiting members 12. The two limiting members 12 are spaced apart on the surface of the first electrical connector 13 away from the second first connecting part 121. The first electrical connector 13 is movably limited between the two limiting members 12. The first electrical connector 13 is provided corresponding to the first clearance opening. Since an assembly gap is formed between the first electrical connector 13 and the two limiting members 12 along the end face direction parallel to the clearance opening, when connecting, the other electrical connector can push the first electrical connector 13 to move slightly between the two limiting members 12, which can eliminate assembly stress and prevent the electrical connector on the first electrical connector 13 from bending, causing the problem of inability to connect.
[0041] In one embodiment of the present invention, a limiting groove 1221 is formed on the surface of the first pressing part 122 facing the first connector 11, and a limiting protrusion 131 is provided on the surface of the first electrical connector 13 facing the first pressing part 122. The limiting protrusion 131 is limited to the limiting groove 1221 along the direction from the opening to the bottom of the limiting groove 1221.
[0042] In this embodiment, the first holding part 122 is open towards the first connector 11, and a limiting groove 1221 is formed on the surface of the first connector 11. Correspondingly, the first electrical connector 13 has a limiting protrusion 131 protruding from the surface of the limiting groove 1221. The limiting protrusion 131 can be limited to the limiting groove 1221 along the direction from the opening to the bottom of the limiting groove 1221. The first electrical connector 13 can move laterally between the two first holding parts 122 and along the direction of the two first holding parts 122, limiting the movement direction of the first electrical connector 13 and preventing the first electrical connector 13 from deviating from the first clearance opening, causing the problem of not being able to connect with the other electrical connector.
[0043] In one embodiment of the present invention, the number of limiting members 12 is one. The limiting member 12 includes a second connecting part and two second pressing parts. The two second pressing parts are respectively located at both ends of the second connecting part. The second connecting part and the first electrical connector 13 form the floating gap in the direction parallel to the end face of the clearance opening.
[0044] In this embodiment, there is one limiting member 12, and the shape of the second pressing part is consistent with the shape of the first pressing part 122. The shape of the second connecting part differs from that of the first connecting part 121; for example, the shape of the second connecting part can be U-shaped or U-shaped. The second connecting part can cover the first connecting member 13, and a floating gap is formed between the first electrical connecting member 13 and the second connecting part in the direction parallel to the end face of the clearance opening, allowing the first electrical connecting member 13 to move slightly in the direction parallel to the end face of the clearance opening. The two second pressing parts abut the first electrical connecting member 13 against the surface of the first connecting member 11, thereby restricting the movement of the first electrical connecting member 13 in the vertical direction and preventing the first electrical connecting member 13 from disengaging from the clearance opening in the vertical direction, which could lead to electrical connection failure.
[0045] This utility model also proposes a therapeutic device 100, which includes a second connector 20, a main unit 30, a trolley 40 and a floating structure 10 as described above. The first connector 11 and the second connector 20 are respectively installed on the main unit 30 and the trolley 40, and the main unit 30 and the trolley 40 are detachably connected through the first connector 11 and the second connector 20.
[0046] In this embodiment, the first connector 11 of the floating structure 10 is mounted on the main unit 30, and the second connector 20 is mounted on the trolley 40. The main unit 30 and the trolley 40 are detachably connected through the first connector 11 and the second connector 20. When the second connector 20 is connected to the first connector 11, it pushes the first electrical connector 13 to move slightly along the end face parallel to the clearance opening to eliminate assembly stress. It is understood that in other embodiments, the first connector 11 of the floating structure 10 is mounted on the trolley 40, and the second connector 20 is mounted on the main unit 30. The main unit 30 and the trolley 40 are detachably connected through the first connector 11 and the second connector 20.
[0047] In one embodiment of the present invention, the therapeutic device 100 further includes a second electrical connector 50, which is installed on the second connector 20 and is used to connect with the first electrical connector 13 so that the main unit 30 and the trolley 40 are electrically connected.
[0048] When the host 30 and the trolley 40 are electrically connected, the first electrical connector 13 can move along the end face direction parallel to the clearance opening so that the first electrical connector 13 and the second electrical connector 50 are accurately aligned and inserted.
[0049] In this embodiment, when the second electrical connector 50 is connected to the first electrical connector 13, the second electrical connector 50 will apply assembly stress to the first electrical connector 13, and an assembly gap is formed between the first electrical connector 13 and the limiting member 12. The first electrical connector 13 can move slightly along the end face direction parallel to the clearance opening, so that when the trolley 40 is connected to the main unit 30, the assembly stress can be eliminated, and the first electrical connector 13 or the second electrical connector 50 is not subjected to force or is subjected to a small force, preventing the second electrical connector 50 or the first electrical connector 13 from being bent and causing the electrical connection failure.
[0050] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first connector 11 further includes a first fixing member 111, the first fixing member 111 having a first threaded hole, the first fixing member 111 being disposed on the surface of the first connector 11 facing the second connector 20, the second connector 20 including a second fixing member 21 having a second threaded hole, and an external fastener being used to pass through both the first threaded hole and the second threaded hole simultaneously to achieve the connection of the first fixing member 111 and the second fixing member 21.
[0051] In this embodiment, the first fixing member 111 is disposed on the surface of the first connecting member 11 facing the second connecting member 20. Correspondingly, the second connecting member 20 is provided with a second fixing member 21. The first fixing member 111 and the second fixing member 21 are respectively provided with a first threaded hole and a second threaded hole. External fasteners can be screws or bolts, which pass through the first threaded hole and the second threaded hole to connect the first fixing member 111 and the second fixing member 21, thereby connecting the first connecting member 11 and the second connecting member 20, improving the connection strength between the two, and thus improving the connection strength between the host 30 and the trolley 40. In a preferred embodiment, there are two first fixing members 111 and two fixing members 21. The two first fixing members 111 are symmetrically disposed on opposite sides of the first connecting member 11, and the two second fixing members 21 are respectively symmetrically disposed on opposite sides of the second connecting member 20 with the central axis of the second connecting member 20 as the axis.
[0052] In one embodiment of this utility model, the first connector 11 further includes a plurality of guide posts 112, which are spaced apart on the surface of the first connector 11 facing the second connector 20. The second connector 20 has grooves 22 that match the number of guide posts 112. When the host 30 is connected to the trolley 40, one guide post 112 passes through a groove 22. The guide posts 112 and the grooves 22 are used for guiding the installation of the first connector 11 and the second connector 20.
[0053] In this embodiment, the first connector 11 further includes a plurality of guide posts 112. The guide posts 112 are spaced apart on the surface of the first connector 11 facing the second connector 20. When the first connector 11 is connected to the bottom of the main unit 30, the guide posts 112 can support the main unit 30 to be placed on the ground, creating a gap between the main unit 30 and the ground, facilitating the handling of the main unit 30. The second connector 20 has a plurality of grooves 22 spaced apart. When the main unit 30 is placed on the trolley 40, the guide posts 112 are aligned and inserted into the grooves 22, so that the gap between the first connector 11 and the second connector 20 is smaller, and the placement of the main unit 30 and the trolley 40 is more stable.
[0054] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first connector 11 is provided with a positioning hole 132, and the second connector 20 is provided with a positioning pin 51. When the first connector 11 and the second connector 20 are connected, the positioning pin 51 is inserted into the positioning hole 132.
[0055] In this embodiment, the positioning pin 51 on the second connector 20 is inserted into the positioning hole 132 on the first connector 11, thereby connecting the second connector 20 and the first connector 11. The connection between the positioning pin 51 and the positioning hole 132 serves to guide the connection between the second connector 20 and the first connector 11.
