A protection structure of a photoacoustic imaging probe

Abstract

This utility model discloses a protective structure for a photoacoustic imaging probe, which includes a mounting frame and a probe body. A protective cover is provided at the bottom of the probe body, a protective cap is provided at the bottom of the protective cover, and a cleaning mechanism is provided at the top of the protective cap. A cover plate is provided on the front side of the mounting frame. The cleaning mechanism includes several brush bristles, two magnetic blocks, a plug, a mounting plate, a magnetic ring, and a slot. The brush bristles are fixedly connected to the top of the mounting plate, the magnetic blocks are fixedly connected to the mounting plate on the side near the mounting plate, the top of the plug is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate, and the slot is opened at the bottom of the inner wall of the protective cap. This invention solves the problem that in some existing photoacoustic probes, when not in use, the tip is not effectively protected, and dust easily adheres to the tip surface, affecting the normal operation of photoacoustic imaging. Furthermore, during the use of the photoacoustic probe, the dust adhering to the tip surface is inconvenient to clean.
