Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of ultrasonic therapy technology, specifically to an ultrasonic therapy device adapted to the treatment of heads of different sizes. Background Technology

[0002] Ultrasound therapy, as an important treatment method in modern medicine, has been widely used in many medical fields such as nervous system diseases, soft tissue injuries and tumor treatment. By precisely controlling the energy of ultrasound waves to act on the target tissue, it can achieve non-invasive or minimally invasive treatment.

[0003] According to CN208511734U, a head positioning frame for an ultrasound therapy device is disclosed. This technology includes a curved positioning frame body, with a horizontal fixing strap at each of the left and right ends, and a vertical positioning strap on each of the left and right sides of the upper surface of the positioning frame body. The two horizontal fixing straps and the two vertical positioning straps are fixedly connected by an adjustment mechanism, which includes a left adjustment strap, a right adjustment strap, a connecting sleeve, and a gear knob. This design achieves three-point positioning through the horizontal fixing straps, vertical fixing straps, and the positioning frame body, ensuring a firm connection between the device and the patient's head, preventing displacement and facilitating better treatment. Furthermore, the adjustment mechanism can meet the comfort requirements of different patients.

[0004] Existing fixed headgear cannot adapt to the differences in head circumference and head contour of different patients, making it difficult to achieve precise matching between the ultrasound transducer array and the treatment site. Since the transducer position is fixed and cannot be adjusted according to individual anatomical characteristics, the ultrasound energy cannot be accurately focused on the target treatment area, which reduces the treatment accuracy and increases the risk of damage to non-target tissues. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an ultrasonic therapy device that can be adapted to the treatment of heads of different sizes. It uses an independently adjustable ultrasonic transducer array to precisely match different head shapes. The transducers can slide and be firmly fixed along an arc track to ensure treatment accuracy. It also features a linear adjustment mechanism to achieve progressive adjustment of the head cover.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an ultrasonic therapy device adapted to treat heads of different sizes, comprising a base, wherein an ultrasonic therapy mechanism is mounted on the base for use by patients with different head circumferences, the ultrasonic therapy mechanism comprising:

[0007] The main components include an ultrasonic generator mounted on a base, with a control panel installed on the upper part of the ultrasonic generator;

[0008] The wearable component includes a head cover electrically connected to an ultrasonic generator via a cable. The head cover has multiple arc-shaped adjustment holes evenly arranged around its circumference. Several ultrasonic transducers are installed inside each arc-shaped adjustment hole. A first knob sleeve is connected to the upper outer wall of the ultrasonic transducer via a threaded connection. Four mounting holes are evenly distributed around the outer wall of the head cover. An adjustment component is provided on the ultrasonic generator for adjusting the tightness of the ultrasonic generator.

[0009] Preferably, the adjustment assembly further includes a mounting base fixed inside the mounting hole, a threaded rod slidably mounted inside the mounting base, a clamping plate fixed to the inner end of the threaded rod, and a second knob sleeve rotatably mounted on the outer end of the mounting base, with the inner wall of the second knob sleeve threadedly mounted to the threaded rod.

[0010] Preferably, the adjustment assembly further includes a limiting strip fixed to the inner wall of the mounting base, and a limiting groove is formed on the outer wall of the threaded rod to cooperate with the limiting strip to form a sliding guide.

[0011] Preferably, the wearing component further includes power amplifiers installed at both ends of the headgear, and cables are connected between several ultrasonic transducers inside the same arc-shaped adjustment hole, with the ends of the cables connected to the power amplifiers.

[0012] Preferably, the inner surface of the clamp is provided with a flexible buffer layer, and the flexible buffer layer is made of medical-grade silicone.

[0013] Preferably, the cable is a flexible shielded cable, and its length is greater than the maximum unfolded length of the arc-shaped adjustment hole.

[0014] Beneficial effects

[0015] This invention provides an ultrasound therapy device adapted to treat heads of different sizes. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages:

[0016] 1. When the first knob sleeve is loosened, the ultrasonic transducer can move smoothly along the curvature path of the arc-shaped adjustment hole to adapt to the anatomical features of different head shapes; after the first knob sleeve is tightened, the axial locking force generated by the thread will firmly fix the ultrasonic transducer in the preset position, ensuring that no displacement occurs during treatment; by independently adjusting the position of each ultrasonic transducer, the physiological curvature of the patient's head and the treatment target area can be accurately matched, improving the accuracy of treatment; in addition, the arc-shaped sliding track allows the transducer array to naturally conform to the head contour, avoiding local pressure concentration.

[0017] 2. The matching structure of the limiting groove and the limiting strip effectively constrains the threaded rod to only make axial linear motion; when the second knob sleeve is rotated, the threaded pair converts the rotational motion into the precise linear displacement of the threaded rod, driving the clamping plate to achieve progressive clamping or loosening action, meeting the fine adjustment needs of different head types.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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.

[0025] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 5 This utility model provides a technical solution: an ultrasound therapy device adapted to treat heads of different sizes, including a base 1, on which an ultrasound therapy mechanism 2 is provided for wearing by patients with different head circumferences. The ultrasound therapy mechanism 2 includes:

[0026] The main component 21 includes an ultrasonic generator 211 mounted on the base 1, and a control panel 212 is mounted on the upper end of the ultrasonic generator 211.

[0027] Wearing component 22 includes a head cover 221 electrically connected to an ultrasonic generator 211 via a cable. Multiple arc-shaped adjustment holes 222 are evenly arranged circumferentially on the head cover 221. Several ultrasonic transducers 224 are installed inside each arc-shaped adjustment hole 222. A first knob sleeve 225 is connected to the upper outer wall of the ultrasonic transducer 224 by a threaded connection. Four mounting holes 227 are evenly distributed circumferentially on the outer wall of the head cover 221. An adjustment component 228 is provided on the ultrasonic generator 211 for adjusting the tightness of the ultrasonic generator 211.

[0028] In this embodiment, when the first knob sleeve 225 is loosened, the ultrasonic transducer 224 can move smoothly along the curvature path of the arc-shaped adjustment hole 222 to adapt to the anatomical features of different head shapes; after the first knob sleeve 225 is tightened, the axial locking force generated by the thread firmly fixes the ultrasonic transducer 224 in the preset position to ensure that no displacement occurs during treatment; by independently adjusting the position of each ultrasonic transducer 224, the physiological curvature of the patient's head and the treatment target area can be accurately matched to improve the accuracy of treatment; in addition, the arc-shaped sliding track allows the transducer array to naturally conform to the head contour and avoid local pressure concentration.

[0029] Specifically, the adjustment assembly 228 also includes a mounting base 2281 fixed inside the mounting hole 227. A threaded rod 2282 is slidably mounted inside the mounting base 2281. A clamping plate 2283 is fixed to the inner end of the threaded rod 2282. A second knob sleeve 2284 is rotatably mounted on the outer end of the mounting base 2281, and the inner wall of the second knob sleeve 2284 is threadedly mounted to the threaded rod 2282.

[0030] In this embodiment, when the second knob sleeve 2284 is rotated, the threaded pair converts the rotational motion into a precise linear displacement of the threaded rod 2282, which drives the clamping plate 2283 to perform a progressive clamping or loosening action, meeting the fine adjustment needs of different head shapes.

[0031] Specifically, the adjustment component 228 also includes a limiting strip 2285 fixed to the inner wall of the mounting base 2281, and a limiting groove 2286 is formed on the outer wall of the threaded rod 2282, which cooperates with the limiting strip 2285 to form a sliding guide.

[0032] In this embodiment, the mating structure of the limiting groove 2286 and the limiting strip 2285 effectively constrains the threaded rod 2282 to only perform axial linear motion.

[0033] Specifically, the wearing component 22 also includes power amplifiers 223 installed at both ends of the headgear 221, and cables 226 are connected between several ultrasonic transducers 224 inside the same arc-shaped adjustment hole 222, with the ends of the cables 226 connected to the power amplifiers 223.

[0034] In this embodiment, the near-end arrangement of the power amplifier 223 shortens the signal transmission path, reducing power loss and signal attenuation; the highly flexible cable 226 and the stress relief structure work together to protect the connection parts from mechanical damage during frequent adjustments.

[0035] Specifically, the inner surface of the splint 2283 is provided with a flexible buffer layer, and the flexible buffer layer is made of medical-grade silicone.

[0036] In this embodiment, the thickness of the flexible buffer layer gradually decreases from the center to the edge, forming a curved transition that conforms to the contour of the human head; when the clamp 2283 clamps the head, the medical silicone flexible buffer layer adapts to the head curve of different patients through elastic deformation.

[0037] Specifically, cable 226 is a flexible shielded cable, and its length is greater than the maximum unfolded length of the arc-shaped adjustment hole 222.

[0038] In this embodiment, the flexible shielded cable 226 adopts a multi-layer composite structure design. Its core wire is made of multiple strands of silver-plated copper wire twisted together, and the outer layer is successively covered with an insulation layer, a braided shielding layer and a wear-resistant sheath. The cable 226 is arranged along the extension direction of the arc-shaped adjustment hole 222, and a redundant length is reserved at the connection node of each ultrasonic transducer 224 to form a wavy relaxation section.

[0039] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: First, when the second knob sleeve 2284 is rotated, the threaded pair converts the rotational motion into the precise linear displacement of the threaded rod 2282, which drives the clamping plate 2283 to achieve progressive clamping or loosening action, so as to meet the fine adjustment needs of different head shapes.

[0040] When the first knob sleeve 225 is loosened, the ultrasonic transducer 224 can move smoothly along the curvature path of the arc-shaped adjustment hole 222 to adapt to the anatomical features of different head shapes; after the first knob sleeve 225 is tightened, the axial locking force generated by the thread firmly fixes the ultrasonic transducer 224 in the preset position, ensuring that no displacement occurs during treatment; by independently adjusting the position of each ultrasonic transducer 224, the physiological curvature of the patient's head and the treatment target area can be accurately matched, improving the accuracy of treatment; in addition, the arc-shaped sliding track allows the transducer array to naturally conform to the head contour, avoiding local pressure concentration.
