Detailed Implementation
[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0019] Example 1:
[0020] Please see Figures 1-3 This embodiment provides a technical solution: a lifting lead shield for radiation protection that moves with a vertical chest X-ray machine, including a fixed frame 10, a radiation receiver 20 fixedly installed on the front side of the fixed frame 10, a first lead curtain assembly 30 and a second lead curtain assembly 40 symmetrically installed on the top left and right sides of the fixed frame 10, and the first lead curtain assembly 30 and the second lead curtain assembly 40 correspond to each other, and a third lead curtain assembly 50 and a fourth lead curtain assembly 60 symmetrically installed on the bottom left and right sides of the fixed frame 10, and the third lead curtain assembly 50 and the fourth lead curtain assembly 60 correspond to each other;
[0021] The second lead curtain assembly 40 includes a first metal U-shaped clip 401 that is snapped onto the top of the fixed frame 10. A first fixing bolt 402 is installed on the first metal U-shaped clip 401. A first metal tube 403 is fixedly installed on the top of the first metal U-shaped clip 401. A first sleeve 404 is movably fitted onto the outer side wall of the first metal tube 403. A first lead curtain 405 is provided on the first sleeve 404. A first Velcro 406 is provided on the surface of the first lead curtain 405.
[0022] The fourth lead curtain assembly 60 includes a second metal U-shaped clip 601 fixed to the bottom of the fixed frame 10, a second fixing bolt 602 installed on the second metal U-shaped clip 601, a second metal tube 604 installed on the outer wall of the second metal U-shaped clip 601 via a hinge 603, a second sleeve 605 movably fitted on the outer wall of the second metal tube 604, a second lead curtain 606 provided on the second sleeve 605, and a second Velcro 607 provided on the surface of the second lead curtain 606.
[0023] Because patients coming to the hospital for examination have varying conditions, and many are immobile, requiring wheelchairs and mobile beds, the existing technology is not connected to the radiation receiver, occupying part of the workspace. If patients or their families are not careful, or if technicians operate improperly, the radiation protection lead shield may be knocked over. This could cause a minor scare, damage the equipment, resulting in financial losses for the department, or even more seriously, crush a patient, causing injury and a medical accident. Therefore, in the use of this utility model, the first lead curtain assembly 30, the second lead curtain assembly 40, the third lead curtain assembly 50, and the fourth lead curtain assembly 60 can rise and fall together with the radiation receiver 20. This reduces the workload of technicians, and the connection with the radiation receiver 20 itself saves indoor space. At the same time, it can prevent wheelchairs, mobile beds, X-ray tubes, and other items from tipping over due to improper placement, thus protecting the examinee in real time.
[0024] Meanwhile, the existing equipment's lead curtains do not fit the human body tightly enough, resulting in some gaps that allow more radiation to scatter into the body, thus failing to provide sufficient protection. The first lead curtain assembly 30 and the second lead curtain assembly 40 of this invention can be adjusted according to the thickness of the human body using the adhesion of the first Velcro 406 to change the fit between the two sets of first lead curtains 405. The first lead curtains 405 can rotate around the first metal tube 403 through the first sleeve 404, making it easy to adjust the overlap length of the two sets of first lead curtains 405 to ensure a close fit between the lead curtains and the human body, reducing the absorption of radiation between the human body and the scattered rays. Similarly, the third lead curtain assembly 50 and the fourth lead curtain assembly 60 are used in the same manner as described above.
[0025] In use, a person stands in front of the X-ray receiver 20, aligning the receiver with their chest. The first and second lead curtain assemblies 30 and 40 work together to shield the upper chest, while the third and fourth lead curtain assemblies 50 and 60 work together to shield the lower chest. When these four lead curtain assemblies are deployed, they enclose the person, forming two frames that protect the upper and lower chest respectively. This provides protection by leaving the middle of the chest exposed, allowing X-rays to pass through the chest and reach the X-ray receiver 20. The receiver 20 receives the X-rays and completes the examination, while other X-rays are blocked by the lead curtains, effectively protecting the person.
[0026] The first metal U-shaped clip 401 and the second metal U-shaped clip 601 are the same size. The first metal U-shaped clip 401 and the second metal U-shaped clip 601 are provided with matching slots that match the fixing frame 10. The first fixing bolt 402 and the second fixing bolt 602 have the same structure. The lead curtain assembly can be quickly installed on the fixing frame 10 through the metal U-shaped clips. At the same time, the metal U-shaped clips are fixed by the fixing bolts, which improves the stability of the installation. It also allows for quick assembly and disassembly of the first lead curtain assembly 30, the second lead curtain assembly 40, the third lead curtain assembly 50 and the fourth lead curtain assembly 60. They are easy to store and place, and have a small size, which can be adjusted according to the actual needs of radiation inspection.
[0027] The first metal tube 403 is vertically upward, and the second lead curtain assembly 40 has the same structure as the first lead curtain assembly 30, which facilitates the first lead curtain 405 to rotate around the first metal tube 403 through the first sleeve 404, and facilitates the close fit between the lead curtain and the human body by adjusting the overlapping length of the two sets of first lead curtains 405.
[0028] The structure of the third lead curtain assembly 50 is the same as that of the fourth lead curtain assembly 60. The hinge 603 is located on the opposite side of the third lead curtain assembly 50 and the fourth lead curtain assembly 60. The second metal tube 604 is in a vertical position when the hinge 603 is closed, and in a horizontal position when the hinge 603 is open. This allows for easy adjustment of the third lead curtain assembly 50 and the fourth lead curtain assembly 60 according to the protection requirements. The close fit of the third lead curtain assembly 50 and the fourth lead curtain assembly 60 provides shielding protection for the human body, achieving better protection. The radiation receiver 20 is equipped with two radiation shielding curtains on the top and bottom, respectively, while the left and right radiation shielding curtains can be easily and seamlessly connected together with Velcro, blocking X-rays from the incident direction in all directions.
[0029] Example 2:
[0030] This embodiment provides a lead shield for radiation protection that moves with a vertical chest X-ray machine, including a fixed frame 10. A radiation receiver 20 is fixedly installed on the front side of the fixed frame 10. A first lead curtain assembly 30 and a first winder 70 are symmetrically installed on the top left and right sides of the fixed frame 10, and the first lead curtain assembly 30 and the first winder 70 correspond to each other. A third lead curtain assembly 50 and a second winder 80 are symmetrically installed on the bottom left and right sides of the fixed frame 10, and the third lead curtain assembly 50 and the second winder 80 correspond to each other. The first lead curtain assembly 30 and the third lead curtain assembly 50 are the same as those disclosed in Embodiment 1. In use, the first lead curtain 405 is wrapped around the first winder 70 and then returned to be attached to the first lead curtain 405 by Velcro. Similarly, the second lead curtain 606 is wrapped around the second winder 80 and then returned to be attached to the second lead curtain 606 by Velcro, which greatly improves the convenience of shielding and protecting the human body with lead curtains.
[0031] Example 3:
[0032] In this embodiment, only the first lead curtain assembly 30 and the third lead curtain assembly 50 on the left, or the second lead curtain assembly 40 and the fourth lead curtain assembly 60 on the right, are used. Correspondingly, the lengths of the lead curtains on the first lead curtain assembly 30 and the third lead curtain assembly 50, and the lead curtains on the second lead curtain assembly 40 and the fourth lead curtain assembly 60 are delayed so that their lengths are greater than the lateral length of the radiation receiver 20.
[0033] The fabric used for the lead curtains on the first lead curtain assembly 30, the second lead curtain assembly 40, the third lead curtain assembly 50, and the fourth lead curtain assembly 60 can be the patented product ZL2021106601990, which is lighter, foldable, and less prone to damage.
[0034] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
