Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and more specifically, to a probe connection cable storage device. Background Technology

[0002] In hospital clinical practice, medical ultrasound equipment, consisting of an ultrasound imaging machine and an ultrasound probe with a cable, is often used to detect and examine a patient's organs, tissues, and lesion areas to provide clinicians with rapid and accurate diagnostic information, thereby helping them to accurately diagnose the patient's condition.

[0003] However, in the use of existing medical ultrasound equipment, the cables connecting the ultrasound imaging machine and the ultrasound probe are ubiquitous. Clinically, these cables are often carelessly left on the floor, affecting not only the cleanliness of the work environment but also posing potential safety hazards. For example, patients or clinical medical staff are at risk of tripping over the cables and falling during examinations. Hospital data shows that cases of medical staff suffering femoral head fractures due to falls caused by cables are common, seriously threatening their personal safety.

[0004] How to solve the above problems has become an urgent technical challenge. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a probe connection cable storage device that can properly organize and store cables to prevent them from getting tangled and worn on the ground, causing users to fall and get their legs caught, effectively ensuring the cleanliness of the working environment and avoiding the impact of cable wear on service life.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A probe connection cable storage device includes a base located on the bottom of the operating table of an external ultrasonic imaging machine; a cable harness storage structure is provided on the base, which can extend outward relative to the base to properly store and store external cables, and both ends of the cable extend outward from the side wall of the cable harness storage structure and are electrically connected to the external ultrasonic imaging machine and ultrasonic probe respectively; a plurality of probe limiting structures are also provided on the outer side wall of the cable harness storage structure for placing corresponding ultrasonic probes to properly store the exposed ends of the corresponding cables.

[0008] Preferably, the cable harness storage structure includes limiting guide rails on both sides of the bottom of the base, and a cabinet cavity with several cavities that can slide out of the base along the limiting guide rails for properly classifying and storing the corresponding cables. Several openings are provided on the rear side wall of the cabinet cavity for one end of the corresponding cable to extend out and be electrically connected to the ultrasonic imaging machine, and the position of the openings is adapted to the position of the corresponding cavity. Several front slots are provided on the front side wall of the cabinet cavity, penetrating the top of the cabinet cavity, for one end of the corresponding cable to extend out and be electrically connected to the ultrasonic probe, and the position of the front slots is adapted to the position of the corresponding cavity. The probe limiting structure is provided on the outer side wall of the cabinet cavity.

[0009] Preferably, the wire harness storage structure further includes a wire harness limiting component disposed within the cabinet cavity for positioning the cables to prevent them from arching and causing cross-contamination.

[0010] Preferably, the wire harness limiting assembly includes a pressure cap disposed on the inner wall of one side of the cabinet cavity via a self-locking hinge for pressing down and limiting the cables stored in the cabinet cavity to prevent them from arching and causing them to cross and become tangled. The outer edge of the pressure cap is also covered with a smooth protective strip to prevent the pressure cap from scratching medical staff when storing the cables.

[0011] Preferably, the probe defining structure includes a side seat bolted to the outer wall of the corresponding side of the cabinet cavity, and a cavity at both ends of the outer wall of the side seat that is adapted to the shape of the external ultrasonic probe for mutual cooperation to accommodate the ultrasonic probe and properly place the exposed end of the corresponding cable.

[0012] Preferably, a handle is provided on the front side wall of the cabinet cavity for medical staff to push and pull the cabinet cavity, which slides out of the base relative to the limiting guide rail.

[0013] Due to the adoption of the above structure, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] In this invention, when an ultrasound examination is required on a patient, under the constraint of the base, medical personnel pull out the cable harness storage structure beyond the base and the operating table of the ultrasound imaging machine. They then remove the ultrasound probe from the probe-limiting structure and pull out the cable at that end to extend the cable within the cable harness storage structure to a predetermined length suitable for the ultrasound examination. Next, the cable harness storage structure is pushed back to its original position to prevent it from being exposed and causing injury to medical personnel. The ultrasound imaging machine is then started, and the patient can be examined through the cooperation of the ultrasound imaging machine, the cable, and the ultrasound probe. After the examination, under the constraint of the base, medical personnel pull out the cable harness storage structure beyond the base, gather the cable, place it back into the cable harness storage structure, and place the ultrasound probe on the probe-limiting structure to achieve the desired cable position. By properly placing the exposed ends of the cable, and then pushing the cable harness storage structure to move and reset the probe limiting structure together, the exposed ends are prevented from causing collision injuries to medical staff. This allows the cable and ultrasonic probe to be properly concealed and stored under the operating table of the ultrasonic imaging machine. This effectively improves the cleanliness of the working environment and avoids the safety hazards of cables getting tangled and worn, which could lead to falls or injuries to medical staff or patients. Furthermore, it prevents cable wear from affecting the service life, effectively improving the safety and reliability of use. Therefore, this invention has the advantages of properly storing cables to prevent tangling and wear, ensuring a clean working environment, and preventing cable wear from affecting the service life.

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.

[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 2As shown, this embodiment provides a probe connection cable storage device, including a base 2 located on the bottom of the operating table of an external ultrasonic imaging machine 1; a cable harness storage structure 4 is provided on the base 2, which can extend outward relative to the base 2 to properly store the external cable 3, and both ends of the cable 3 extend outward from the side wall of the cable harness storage structure 4 and are electrically connected to the external ultrasonic imaging machine 1 and ultrasonic probe 5 respectively; a plurality of probe limiting structures 6 are provided on the outer side wall of the cable harness storage structure 4 for placing the corresponding ultrasonic probe 5 to properly store the exposed ends of the corresponding cable 3. During use, when an ultrasound examination is required on a patient, under the constraint of the base 2, medical personnel pull out the cable harness storage structure 4 to extend it beyond the base 2 and the operating table of the ultrasound imaging machine 1. Then, they remove the corresponding ultrasound probe 5 from the corresponding probe limiting structure 6 and pull out the cable 3 at that end to extend the cable 3 within the cable harness storage structure 4 to a predetermined length suitable for the ultrasound examination of the patient. Next, they push the cable harness storage structure 4 to its original position to prevent it from being exposed and causing injury to medical personnel. Then, they start the ultrasound imaging machine 1, and the ultrasound imaging machine 1, along with the corresponding cable 3 and the corresponding ultrasound probe 5, can perform the examination on the patient. After the examination, under the constraint of the base 2, medical personnel pull out the cable harness storage structure 4 to extend it beyond the base 2. The exposed cable 3 is bundled and placed in the corresponding cavity of the cable bundle storage structure 4, and the ultrasonic probe 5 is placed on the corresponding probe limiting structure 6 to properly place the exposed end of the cable 3. Then, the cable bundle storage structure 4 is pushed to move and reset the probe limiting structure 6 together to prevent it from being exposed and causing collision injury to medical staff. In this way, the cable 3 and the ultrasonic probe 5 are hidden at the bottom of the operating table of the ultrasonic imaging machine 1 for proper storage. This can effectively improve the cleanliness of the working environment, and also avoid the safety hazard of medical staff or patients falling and getting their legs tangled in the cable 3 due to messy dragging on the ground, which can easily cause entanglement and wear. In addition, it can also avoid the service life of the cable 3 due to wear, effectively improving the safety and reliability of use.

[0022] In this embodiment, the wire harness storage structure 4 includes limiting guide rails 41 on both sides of the bottom of the base 2. A cabinet cavity 42, which can slide along the limiting guide rails 41 and extend outside the base 2, is provided on each of the two limiting guide rails 41 and has several cavities for properly classifying and storing the corresponding cables 3. Several openings 43 are provided on the rear side wall of the cabinet cavity 42 for each end of the corresponding cable 3 to extend outside and electrically connect to the ultrasonic imaging machine 1, and the positions of the openings 43 are adapted to the positions of the corresponding cavities. Several front slots 44 are provided on the front side wall of the cabinet cavity 42, penetrating the top of the cabinet cavity 42, for each end of the corresponding cable 3 to extend outside and electrically connect to the ultrasonic probe 5, and the positions of the front slots 44 are adapted to the positions of the corresponding cavities. The probe limiting structure 6 is provided on the outer side wall of the cabinet cavity 42. The wire harness storage structure 4 also includes a wire harness limiting component 45 provided inside the cabinet cavity 42 to limit the position of the cables 3 and prevent them from arching and causing cross-contamination. The wiring harness limiting assembly 45 includes a pressure cover 200 mounted on the inner wall of one side of the cabinet cavity 42 via a self-locking hinge 100, used to press down and limit the cables 3 stored in the cabinet cavity 42 to prevent them from arching and becoming tangled. A smooth protective strip 300 is also provided on the outer edge of the pressure cover 200 to prevent the pressure cover 200 from scratching medical personnel when storing the cables 3. A handle 7 is provided on the front side wall of the cabinet cavity 42 for medical personnel to push and pull the cabinet cavity 42, allowing it to slide out of the base 2 relative to the limiting guide rail 41.During use, when an ultrasound examination is required on a patient, under the constraint of the base 2, medical personnel grasp the handle 7 and pull out the cabinet cavity 42 of the cable harness storage structure 4, causing the probe limiting structure 6, along with the ultrasonic probe 5, to extend out of the base 2 and the operating table of the ultrasonic imaging machine 1 along the limiting guide rail 41. At this time, one end of the corresponding cable 3 passes through the corresponding opening 43 and is electrically connected to the ultrasonic imaging machine 1, and the other end of the corresponding cable 3 passes through the corresponding front slot 44 and is electrically connected to the corresponding ultrasonic probe 5. Then, the corresponding ultrasonic probe is removed from the corresponding probe limiting structure 6. The head 5 pulls the cable 3 at this end to extend the corresponding cable 3 located in the cabinet cavity 42 along the corresponding front slot 44 to a predetermined length to adapt for performing ultrasound examination on the patient. Then, the handle 7 is grasped to push the cabinet cavity 42, which moves and resets the probe limiting structure 6 to prevent it from being exposed and causing collision injury to medical staff. Then, the ultrasound imaging machine 1 is started, and the ultrasound imaging machine 1, the corresponding cable 3, and the corresponding ultrasound probe 5 work together to perform detection and examination on the patient. After the examination, under the constraint of the base 2, the medical staff grasps the handle 7 to pull the cabinet cavity 42, which moves and resets the probe limiting structure 6. The structure 6 extends outward from the base 2. Then, the self-locking hinge 100 of the wire harness limiting assembly 45 is operated to open the pressure cover 200 under the anti-scratch effect of the smooth guard strip 300, thus opening the top opening of the cabinet cavity 42 to expose the cavity. The exposed cable 3 is pulled back and bundled before being placed in the corresponding cavity of the cabinet cavity 42. The ultrasonic probe 5 is placed on the corresponding probe limiting structure 6. Then, the self-locking hinge 100 is operated to close the pressure cover 200 on the top of the cabinet cavity 42 to press down and limit the cable 3 to prevent it from arching and causing it to cross and become messy. This achieves proper gathering and placement of the exposed end of the cable 3. The handle 7 pushes the cabinet cavity 42, causing the probe limiting structure 6 to move and reset together to prevent it from being exposed and causing collision injuries to medical staff. In this way, the cable 3 and the ultrasonic probe 5 are hidden at the bottom of the operating table of the ultrasonic imaging machine 1 for proper storage and placement. This can effectively improve the cleanliness of the working environment, and also avoid the safety hazards of medical staff or patients falling and getting their legs tangled in the cable 3 due to messy dragging on the ground, which can easily cause tangling and wear. In addition, it can also avoid the service life of the cable 3 due to wear, effectively improving the safety and reliability of use.

[0023] In this embodiment, the probe limiting structure 6 includes a side seat 62 mounted on the corresponding outer wall of the cabinet cavity 42 by bolts 61. Each end of the outer wall of the side seat 62 has a cavity that matches the shape of the external ultrasonic probe 5, used to accommodate the ultrasonic probe 5 and properly place the exposed end of the corresponding cable 3. During use, when an ultrasound examination of a patient is required, the corresponding ultrasonic probe 5 can be removed from the side groove 63 and the cable 3 at that end can be pulled out along the corresponding front slot 44 to a predetermined length to accommodate the ultrasound examination of the patient, thanks to the mutual support and limitation provided by the bolts 61 and the side seat 62. After the examination, the corresponding ultrasonic probe 5 can be placed on the corresponding side groove 63, ensuring proper storage and placement of the ultrasonic probe 5, making it convenient and reliable to use.

[0024] In specific use of this embodiment, firstly, when an ultrasound examination is required on a patient, under the constraint of the base 2, medical personnel grasp the handle 7 and pull out the cabinet cavity 42 of the cable harness storage structure 4, causing the probe limiting structure 6 to move along the limiting guide rail 41 and extend out of the base 2 and the operating table of the ultrasound imaging machine 1. At this time, one end of the corresponding cable 3 passes through the corresponding opening 43 and is electrically connected to the ultrasound imaging machine 1, and the other end of the corresponding cable 3 passes through the corresponding front slot 44 and is electrically connected to the corresponding ultrasound probe 5. Secondly, under the mutual support and constraint of the corresponding bolts 61 and the corresponding side seats 62, the probe 5 is taken from the corresponding side slot 63. The corresponding ultrasonic probe 5 is lowered and the cable 3 at that end is pulled out to extend the corresponding cable 3 located in the cabinet cavity 42 along the corresponding front slot 44 to a predetermined length to adapt to the ultrasound examination of the patient; then, the handle 7 is grasped to push the cabinet cavity 42 and move the probe limiting structure 6 to reset to prevent it from being exposed and causing collision injury to medical staff. Then, the ultrasonic imaging machine 1 is started. The ultrasound imaging machine 1, the corresponding cable 3, and the corresponding ultrasonic probe 5 can work together to perform detection and examination on the patient. The operation is convenient and reliable; finally, after the examination is completed, under the constraint of the base 2, the medical staff grasp the handle 7 and pull the cabinet cavity 42 to extend the cable 3. The probe limiting structure 6 extends out of the base 2. Then, by operating the self-locking hinge 100 of the wire harness limiting assembly 45, the pressure cover 200 is opened under the anti-scratch effect of the smooth guard strip 300, thus opening the top opening of the cabinet cavity 42. The exposed cable 3 is pulled back and bundled before being placed in the corresponding cavity of the cabinet cavity 42. The corresponding ultrasonic probe 5 is then placed on the corresponding side slot 63, thus achieving proper storage and placement of the corresponding ultrasonic probe 5. This is convenient and reliable. Next, the self-locking hinge 100 is operated to close the pressure cover 200 on the top of the cabinet cavity 42, pressing down on the cable 3 to prevent it from arching and causing it to cross and become tangled. This achieves the control of the cable. Properly placing the exposed end of cable 3, then grasping handle 7 and pushing cabinet cavity 42 to move and reset probe limiting structure 6 together, prevents it from being exposed and causing collision injury to medical staff. In this way, cable 3 and ultrasonic probe 5 are hidden at the bottom of the operating table of ultrasonic imaging machine 1 for proper storage and placement. This can effectively improve the cleanliness of the working environment, and also avoid the safety hazard of medical staff or patients falling and getting their legs tangled in cable 3 due to messy dragging on the ground, which can easily cause tangling and wear. In addition, it can also avoid the service life of cable 3 due to wear, effectively improving the safety and reliability of use.

[0025] In summary, the present invention, with the above-described structure, has the advantages of properly organizing and storing cables to prevent tangling and wear caused by dragging on the ground, thus avoiding safety hazards such as users getting their legs tangled and falling. It also effectively ensures the cleanliness of the working environment and avoids affecting the service life of the cables due to wear.
