[0030] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "first" and "second" in this application is for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features. Additionally, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but only on the basis of being achievable by those skilled in the art.

[0031] A medical linear accelerator is a medical device that uses microwave electromagnetic fields to accelerate electrons and create linear motion paths. It is used for radiotherapy of tumors or other lesions in patients. It can produce high-energy X-rays and electron beams, and features high dose rate, short irradiation time, large irradiation field, good dose uniformity and stability, and small penumbra, such as the XHA600D model.
[0032] In related technologies, a telescopic support rod is installed at one end of the treatment bed, and wheels are installed at the bottom of the telescopic rod for movement. Simply turning the locking bolts to fix the telescopic rod provides support to the bed board. However, existing devices require adjusting the locking bolts on the two telescopic support rods during use, which necessitates bending over and squatting, making operation inconvenient.
[0033] To address some of the problems in the related technologies, this application provides a linear accelerator treatment bed. When the treatment bed 13 needs to be adjusted, the patient first needs to lie flat on the treatment bed 13, and then adjust the height using the lifting base 11. While adjusting the height, the telescopic rod 22 will keep the bottom wheels in contact with the ground due to the weight of the inner rod. After adjusting to the appropriate height, simply rotate the threaded rod 28. When the threaded rod 28 rotates, it will connect with the threaded block 29 and drive the threaded block 29 to move downward. At the same time, the movement will push the two connecting rods 291 to rotate, causing the bottom end of the connecting rod 291 to push the slider 27 to move inside the slide groove 26, and drive one end of the insert 25 to engage with the locking block on the inner rod of the telescopic rod 22, restricting the position of the inner rod, thereby achieving the purpose of support. Finally, the drive mechanism 12 is used to control the treatment bed 13 to move to one side, and the telescopic rod 22 moves accordingly when moving.
[0034] This application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0035] This application provides a linear accelerator treatment bed, including: a lifting base 11 with a drive mechanism 12 on its top; a treatment bed 13 disposed on top of the drive mechanism 12; a support assembly 2 disposed at one end of the treatment bed 13, the support assembly 2 including: a crossbar 21 disposed at one end of the treatment bed 13; a telescopic rod 22 disposed at the bottom of the crossbar 21, and a universal wheel disposed at the bottom of the telescopic rod 22; a locking block 23 embedded in the inner rod of the telescopic rod 22; and a housing 24 connected at both ends to the telescopic rod 22; and a plug. Block 25 is slidably disposed inside the housing 24, and one end of it passes through the outer side wall of the telescopic rod 22 and engages with the housing 24; a groove 26 is formed at the top of the housing 24; the bottom of the slider 27 is inserted into the groove 26 and connected to the insert block 25; the top end of the threaded rod 28 passes through the crossbar 21 and is rotatably connected to the crossbar 21; the threaded block 29 is passed through by the threaded rod 28 and is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 28; the connecting rod 291 is rotatably disposed outside the threaded block 29 and its bottom end is rotatably connected to the slider 27.
[0036] Specifically, the lifting base 11 is equipped with a hydraulic push rod, which controls the vertical movement of the treatment bed 13 to adjust its height. The drive mechanism uses a motor to rotate a lead screw, which has a moving block connected to one end of the treatment bed 13, allowing the treatment bed to be moved to one side. The main function of the linear accelerator treatment bed is to carry the patient and cooperate with the linear accelerator for tumor radiotherapy. The linear accelerator treatment bed is a key component of the linear accelerator system. The patient receives treatment on the treatment bed, which automatically advances as needed to ensure the patient's stability and safety during treatment. The treatment bed is designed to rotate 360 degrees to accommodate different angles of irradiation. Furthermore, the treatment bed is designed with different angles and doses of irradiation based on the location of the tumor or other specific problems to avoid damage to normal organs.
[0037] When adjusting the treatment bed 13, the patient first needs to lie flat on the treatment bed 13. Then, the height is adjusted using the lifting base 11. While adjusting the height, the telescopic rod 22 will keep the bottom wheels in contact with the ground due to the weight of the inner rod. After adjusting to the appropriate height, simply rotate the threaded rod 28. When the threaded rod 28 rotates, it will connect with the threaded block 29 and drive the threaded block 29 to move downward. At the same time, the movement will push the two connecting rods 291 to rotate, so that the bottom end of the connecting rod 291 pushes the slider 27 to move inside the slide groove 26, and drives one end of the insert block 25 to engage with the locking block on the inner rod of the telescopic rod 22, restricting the position of the inner rod and thus achieving the purpose of support. Finally, the drive mechanism 12 is used to control the treatment bed 13 to move to one side, and the telescopic rod 22 moves accordingly when moving.
[0038] In some embodiments, the bottom end of the threaded rod 28 contacts the housing 24 and is rotatably connected to the housing 24.
[0039] The design of the bottom end of the threaded rod 28 being rotatably connected to the housing 24 during use can enhance the stability of the threaded rod 28, while the housing 24 can also provide some support for the threaded rod 28, making the force distributed more evenly.
[0040] In some embodiments, the limiting block at one end of the insert block 25 is in contact with the card block 23 when they are inserted.
[0041] The snug fit design ensures a more secure and stable connection when the parts are in contact, preventing them from shifting.
[0042] In some embodiments, the support assembly 2 further includes: a through groove 221 formed on the outer side wall of the telescopic rod 22; and a protrusion 222 inserted at one end into the inside of the through groove 221 and connected to the inner rod of the telescopic rod 22.
[0043] When the telescopic rod 22 is extended or retracted, the protrusion 222 slides up and down inside the through groove 221, which can prevent the inner rod of the telescopic rod 22 from separating from the outer rod.
[0044] In some embodiments, the support assembly 2 further includes a spring 223 disposed inside the telescopic rod 22.
[0045] When in use, the design of spring 223 can push the inner rod of telescopic rod 22 downward, so that the universal wheel at the bottom is always in contact with the ground.
[0046] In some embodiments, the support assembly 2 further includes a torque 281 disposed on the top of the threaded rod 28.
[0047] When in use, the design of the knob 281 makes it easy to grip and control the rotation of the threaded rod, and the groove on the knob 281 can increase the friction when rotating.
[0048] In some embodiments, a disassembly assembly 3 is provided on the crossbar 21. The disassembly assembly 3 includes: a groove 31 formed on the outer side wall of the crossbar 21; a rod 32 with one end passing through the groove 31 and connected to the treatment bed 13, and an insertion hole formed on the rod 32; and a pin 33 inserted into the insertion hole on the rod 32.
[0049] When it is necessary to disassemble the crossbar 21 and the telescopic bar 22, simply pull out the pin 33 on the bar 32 to release the restriction on the crossbar 21, and then drag the crossbar 21 to move it so that the bar 32 disengages from the groove 31 on the crossbar 21 to complete the disassembly.
[0050] In some embodiments, the disassembly assembly 3 further includes a cone 34 disposed at the bottom of the pin 33.
[0051] The pointed design at the bottom of the cone 34 makes it easier to insert the pin 33 into the socket on the rod 32.
