Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a convenient blood pressure cuff. Background Technology
[0002] In the healthcare field, blood pressure measurement is a crucial means of assessing human health. With increasing public awareness of their health and the rising incidence of cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, the demand for accurate and convenient blood pressure measurement is growing. While traditional blood pressure monitors are widely used, existing cuff designs have limitations in adapting to individual differences, failing to meet the need for precise measurement. Simultaneously, people are placing higher demands on the ease of operation, comfort, and stability of blood pressure monitors. Against this backdrop, the development of a blood pressure monitor device that can accurately adapt to different arm circumferences and improve measurement accuracy and user experience is particularly urgent.
[0003] The existing patent publication number CN202821322U discloses a user-friendly blood pressure cuff. This cuff features a cuff loop shaped like an inverted right-angled trapezoid, with its left straight wall serving as a rotating shaft. The cuff is fixed to this shaft, and a ratchet-pawl locking device connects the shaft to the loop. A cuff tension adjustment knob is located at the lower end of the shaft. The advantages of this invention are: when measuring blood pressure using this cuff, the cuff tension can be adjusted simply by slightly rotating the adjustment knob. Because the cuff loop is an inverted right-angled trapezoid, wider at the top and narrower at the bottom (i.e., its right side wall is sloping), the diameter of the sleeve after wrapping the cuff will also be wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, perfectly matching the physiological shape of the upper arm, ensuring a uniform distribution of pressure throughout the cuff.
[0004] Adjusting blood pressure cuffs often relies on simple Velcro straps. Initially, the Velcro can adapt to different arm circumferences to a certain extent. However, with frequent use, its adhesiveness gradually weakens. Later, the cuff may suddenly loosen during blood pressure measurement, interrupting the process and requiring repeated measurements, thus prolonging measurement time and increasing the workload of medical staff. Furthermore, unstable adhesion can lead to abnormal pressure transmission, severely affecting the accuracy of the measurement results. Therefore, we propose a user-friendly blood pressure cuff design to solve the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content
