Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present apparatus relates to the shape, structure, and combination of articles constituting a toxicity risk assessment and monitoring apparatus for radiation therapy.

[0002] More specifically, the present apparatus relates to a toxicity risk assessment and monitoring apparatus for radiation therapy, which has a compact box-shaped apparatus main body, wherein a display panel, an input unit, an alarm panel, a monitoring sensor unit, a communication interface, an external medical device connection port, a power supply unit, and a plurality of base support portions are arranged at predetermined positions on the front surface, top surface, side surface, back surface, and bottom surface of the main body. BACKGROUND ART

[0003] Conventionally, radiation therapy monitoring stations are usually composed of separate display devices, data input devices, warning indicators, sensor hubs, communication adapters, power supply modules, and connection interfaces for external medical devices. These components may be individually arranged on the console of a treatment room, or may be housed in a relatively large cabinet.

[0004] When the display, input unit, alarm unit, sensor unit, and communication ports are distributed in separate devices, the resulting arrangement may occupy excessive space, cause connection cables to become tangled, make frequently used ports difficult to access, or reduce stability when the apparatus is installed on a table, trolley, or wall-mounted support.

[0005] Accordingly, there is a demand for a structurally integrated apparatus in which visual recognition, user input, toxicity alarm, sensor monitoring, data communication, external device connection, power supply, and mounting components are spatially organized in a single compact housing while maintaining accessibility and stable installation. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION PROBLEMS TO BE SOLVED BY THE INVENTION

[0006] The purpose of this device is to provide a radiation therapy toxicity risk assessment and monitoring device with a systematic physical layout, in which the main display and operation units are located on the front, the communication unit on the top, the monitoring sensor unit on the side, and the connection and power supply units on the back and sides of the device.

[0007] Another objective of this device is to provide a stable device structure that distributes the load of the device and ensures clearance below the device body, by providing a device mounting base support located in the center of the device and four base support parts spaced apart on the bottom surface of the device. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] To solve the above problems, this device provides a radiotherapy toxicity risk assessment and monitoring device (100) having a substantially box-shaped device housing. A display panel (1) is mounted on the front of the housing, a user input digital keyboard (2) is located below the display panel (1), and a radiotoxicity warning panel (3), a user analog input unit (4), an external memory connection port (5), and a display panel control panel (6) are arranged around the display panel (1) and the user input digital keyboard (2).

[0009] A sensor unit (7) for radiation toxicity monitoring is mounted in the circular side opening of the device housing. An antenna (8), a first communication port (91), a second communication port (92), and a central server connection unit (10) are mounted on the top of the housing. The device mounting base support (11) and the first to fourth base support (12, 13, 14, 15) protrude from the bottom surface of the housing.

[0010] A power supply unit (16) is mounted on the back of the enclosure. The first to fourth ports (17, 18, 19, 20) for connecting external medical devices are concentrated on the side of the enclosure, while the audio unit for voice alerts (21), HDMI port (22), and Ethernet port (23) are located at the bottom of the side, thus forming a single, structurally integrated device. [Effects of the Invention]

[0011] With this device, the display panel (1), user input digital keyboard (2), radiation toxicity alarm panel (3), user analog input unit (4), external memory connection port (5), and display panel control panel (6) are all integrated on the front of the device, providing a compact and orderly operating surface.

[0012] Furthermore, the antenna (8), communication ports (91, 92), and central server connection unit (10) located on the top, in conjunction with the radiation toxicity monitoring sensor unit (7) and medical device connection ports (17, 18, 19, 20) located on the side, provide spatial separation between the user operation area and the cable connection area.

[0013] Furthermore, the centrally located device mounting base support (11) and the four spaced-apart base support parts (12, 13, 14, 15) form a stable bottom support structure, and the power supply unit (16) mounted on the rear and the audio, HDMI, and Ethernet components (21, 22, 23) located on the sides allow for efficient use of the outer surface of the device housing. [Brief explanation of the drawing]

[0014] Figure 1 is a front perspective view of a radiotherapy toxicity risk assessment and monitoring device according to one embodiment of this device.

[0015] Figure 2 is a rear and bottom perspective view of a radiotherapy toxicity risk assessment and monitoring device according to one embodiment of this device. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0016] One embodiment of this device will be described with reference to the attached drawings. This device is generally a radiotherapy toxicity risk assessment and monitoring device, as indicated by reference numeral 100.

[0017] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the device (100) consists of a substantially box-shaped enclosure having a generally rectangular top surface, a front surface that is inclined or stepped relative to the top surface, first and second sides, a rear surface, and a bottom surface. This enclosure forms an integrated support structure for the externally accessible components shown in the drawings.

[0018] The display panel (1) is mounted in a large rectangular opening formed in the upper central region of the front. The display panel (1) is surrounded by a frame that protrudes or rises, thereby physically protecting the display surface from direct contact with the mounting surface or adjacent components.

[0019] The user input digital keyboard (2) is mounted in the lower front area below the display panel (1). The keyboard (2) is roughly rectangular and extends laterally in part of the lower front area, thereby forming a data input section accessible from the front.

[0020] The radiation toxicity alarm panel (3) is located in the upper left area of ​​the front, that is, adjacent to the display panel (1). In the illustrated embodiment, the alarm panel (3) is formed as an elongated display area positioned in a visually prominent location on the device.

[0021] The user analog input unit (4) and the external memory connection port (5) are located at the lower front of the chassis, spaced apart horizontally. The display panel control panel (6) is positioned as a long, narrow control unit between the lower end of the display panel (1) and the user input digital keyboard (2), thereby realizing a layered front panel configuration.

[0022] The sensor unit (7) for radio wave toxicity monitoring is fitted into a substantially circular opening formed on the first side surface of the housing. The sensor unit (7) has a circular exposed surface surrounded by an annular rim, whereby the sensor unit is structurally retained within the side wall while remaining exposed to the outside.

[0023] The antenna (8) protrudes upward from the top surface of the housing. In the illustrated embodiment, the antenna (8) is composed of a generally cylindrical upright member with a rounded top end, and a base portion fixed to the top surface.

[0024] The first communication port (91) and the second communication port (92) are formed as elongated rectangular port openings arranged substantially parallel to each other on the top surface. The central server connection unit (10) is formed as a larger rectangular connection area spaced apart from the communication ports (91, 92) on the top surface.

[0025] The device mounting base support portion (11) is disposed substantially at the center of the bottom surface of the housing, and protrudes downward as a wide circular or cylindrical pedestal. The base support portion (11) provides a central mounting and load-bearing region for the device (100).

[0026] The first base support portion (12), the second base support portion (13), the third base support portion (14), and the fourth base support portion (15) are disposed adjacent to the four corners of the bottom surface of the housing at positions spaced apart from each other. Each of the base support portions (12, 13, 14, 15) is formed as a smaller rounded pad or foot spaced outwardly from the device mounting base support portion (11).

[0027] The power supply unit (16) is attached to a recessed elongated rectangular region on the back surface of the housing. By arranging the power supply unit (16) on the back surface, the power connection structure is separated from the user operation components on the front surface.

[0028] The first port (17) and the second port (18) for connecting external medical devices are arranged as a first pair in the upper region of the second side. The third port (19) and the fourth port (20) for connecting external medical devices are arranged as a second pair, spaced apart from the first pair, so that the external device connection openings form two orderly groups.

[0029] The audio unit (21) for voice alerts is housed in a circular opening below the external medical device connection port. The HDMI port (22) and Ethernet port (23) are formed as rectangular openings in the lower region of the second side, adjacent to the audio unit (21) and spaced vertically apart.

[0030] With the above structural combination, the front is mainly occupied by display, input, alert, and control components; the top is mainly occupied by communication and central server connection components; the first side has a monitoring sensor unit (7); the rear has a power supply unit (16); the second side has external equipment, audio, HDMI, and Ethernet connection components; and the bottom has central and corner support members.

[0031] The housing of the device may be formed from a rigid polymer, sheet metal, polymer-metal composite, or other material capable of supporting the described panels, ports, sensor units, antennas, power supply units, and support members. The shape and relative dimensions of the housing and externally accessible components may be modified, insofar as the structural arrangement defined in the claims is maintained.

[0032] This device is industrially applicable as a structurally integrated system for installation in radiation therapy departments, oncology clinics, treatment planning rooms, patient monitoring stations, medical laboratories, and other relevant medical facilities requiring a systematic physical platform for radiation therapy toxicity risk assessment and monitoring.
