Benefits of technology

The technical effect of this patented technology relates to improving the design for an electronic equipment (such as tablets or smartphones) that has two different modes: portrait mode and sitting-stand mode. By placing these devices overtop one another within the same space, they are more convenient during both use scenarios.

Problems solved by technology

This patent describes various technical features associated with existing ultrasound imaging equipment. These include design issues related to convenience, ergonomics, safety concerns, and reducing size requirements due to their bulky construction. Additionally, they also highlight potential difficulties caused by tilled surfaces near subjects who lie still on beds without changing their positions relative to operators.

[0138] Second, refer to Figure 17 , an embodiment related to the ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus 1a of the second embodiment will be described. Figure 17 It is a schematic mechanism diagram of the elevating function mechanism accommodation part of the ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus according to the second embodiment, (a) is a plan view in the first posture Q1, (b) is a side view in the first posture Q1, and (c) is a diagram It is a plan view of the second posture Q2 and the third posture Q3, and the figure (d) is a side view of the second posture or the third posture Q3.

[0139] First, in Figure 17 In this embodiment, a rearwardly inclined device arrangement surface 103a is provided on the front surface of the main body housing 100a, and the operation device 200 is vertically raised and lowered along the inclined device arrangement surface 103a. The lifting function mechanism part 301a is composed of: a lifting part 340 provided in the main body frame 100a; a horizontal ar

Embodiment approach

[0146] In the above-mentioned embodiment, although the control unit 53 is provided in the above-mentioned main body housing 100 , it may also be provided on the operation device 200 .

[0147] In addition, as another embodiment, a configuration in which the arm moving groove 109 is covered with a corrugated cover may also be employed. For example, the upper end of the arm movement groove 109 and the movable arm 300, and the movable arm 300 and the lower end of the arm movement groove 109 are respectively provided with a cover of a stretchable corrugated structure, thereby covering the arm moving along with the movement of the arm movement groove 109. The opening of the moving groove 109 can prevent foreign matter from entering the arm moving groove 109 .

[0148] In addition, a cooling vent may be provided on the inclined surface 114 formed behind the upper surface of the main body frame 100 . In this case, the heat dissipation vents may be opened and closed by providing the abo

Abstract

The invention provides an ultrasonograph having excellent operability and mobility that are achieved by allowing, during operation and movement of the device at a standing position of the user, an operation panel to be compactly placed on the upper surface of the casing and also allowing, during operation of the device in a sitting position of the user, the operation panel to be disposed forward. The ultrasonograph has a body casing (100) having movement wheels (101), an operation device (200) having an operation switch group (400), and a movable arm (300) for connecting the body casing (100) and the operation device (200). The body casing (100) has a tilt surface (103) tilted rearward from the front surface to the upper surface. The movable arm (300) movably supports the operation device (200) through a lifting function mechanism part (301). The lifting function mechanism part (301) moves the operation device (200) from a first attitude (Q1) up to a second attitude (Q2) through a movement path above the tilt surface (103) with the attitude of the operation device (200) maintained. In the first attitude (Q1), the operation device (200) is located above the tilt surface (103), within a projection area of the body casing (100). In the second attitude (Q2), the operation device (200) is located below the tilt surface (103), allowing at least a part of the operation device (200) to protrude from the body casing (100).
