Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The disclosure provides a probe holding table and a medical equipment. The probe holding table comprises a faceplate and a fixing plate for supporting the faceplate. The faceplate is rotatably connected to the fixing plate. A plurality of probe placement units for installing probes are disposed on the faceplate, and each of the probe placement units is in electrical communication with an external power. The user may turn the faceplate to take the probes on the corresponding position, in particular, when more probes need to be used, the structure of the probe holding table is simpler than the normal fixed table, and easier to take the probes. Therefore, the medical equipment adopted the above probe holding table provides with the above advantages.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A probe holding table, comprising: a faceplate; and a fixing plate for supporting the faceplate; and a first ring and a second ring, wherein the first ring is rotatably connected to the second ring, wherein one of the first ring and the second ring is fixedly connected to the faceplate, and the other is fixedly connected to the fixing plate, wherein the faceplate is rotatably connected to the fixing plate, a plurality of probe placement units for installing probes are disposed on the faceplate, and each of the probe placement units is in electrical communication with an external power, and wherein the first ring is sleeved outside of the second ring, and the first ring and the second ring are concentric rings. 2. The probe holding table according to claim 1 , wherein each of the probe placement units comprises: a socket electrically connected to a corresponding probe, and a probe slot receiving the probe. 3. The probe holding table according to claim 1 , wherein a first groove and a second groove are respectively disposed on adjacent sides of the first ring and the second ring, and rolls are disposed between the first groove and the second groove. 4. The probe holding table according to claim 1 , wherein a supporting plate is disposed on the faceplate and has a shape of ring and is disposed on a lower surface of the faceplate. 5. The probe holding table according to claim 4 , wherein a first locating pin is disposed on the supporting plate and a second locating pin is disposed on the fixing plate, and wherein a locating hole in one of the first and second rings is connected to the first locating pin, and a locating hole in the other of the first and second rings is connected to the second locating pin. 6. The probe holding table according to claim 4 , wherein one of the first and second rings is fastened to the supporting plate by screws, and the other of the first and second rings is fastened to the fixing plate by screws. 7. The probe holding table according to claim 1 , wherein a through hole is formed in the middle of the faceplate, a circular conductive rail is disposed on an inner sidewall of the through hole, wherein a conductive component is fixedly arranged on the fixing plate, and wherein the conductive component is electrically connected to the conductive rail, and the probe placement unit is electrically connected to the conductive rail. 8. The probe holding table according to claim 7 , wherein the conductive component is disposed in a plurality and evenly disposed on the fixing plate. 9. The probe holding table according to claim 7 , wherein a fixing mount for fixing the conductive rail is disposed on the inner sidewall of the through hole, and the conductive rail is embeded in the fixing mount. 10. The probe holding table according to claim 9 , wherein the fixing mount is snapped to the conductive rail. 11. The probe holding table according to claim 9 , wherein lugs are disposed on a side of the fixing mount opposite to the conductive rail and electrically connected to the conductive rail. 12. The probe holding table according to claim 7 , wherein the conductive component comprises a base and a conductive connector, wherein the base is fixed onto the fixing plate, and the conductive connector is connected to the base by a connecting rod, wherein the connecting rod extends in a radial direction of the conductive rail, and the conductive connector is conductively connected to the conductive rail, and wherein an elastic member is sleeved on the connecting rod, and is compressed between the conductive connector and the conductive rail. 13. The probe holding table according to claim 12 , wherein the base comprises: a bottom portion fixedly connected to the fixing plate; and a supporting portion fixedly connected to the bottom portion, wherein a sleeve is disposed on the supporting portion, an opening end of the sleeve directs to the conductive rails, and an opposite end of the sleeve is closed, and wherein the connecting rod and the elastic member are both received in the sleeve, and both ends of the elastic member respectively abut on the conductive connector and the closed end of the sleeve. 14. The probe holding table according to claim 13 , wherein a plurality of sleeves are disposed on the supporting portion of the base, and each of the sleeves is corresponding to mounting of one connecting rod, one elastic member, and one conductive connector, and wherein each of the conductive connectors is electrically connected to one corresponding conductive rail. 15. The probe holding table according to claim 12 , wherein the conductive component further comprises a spacing element, and an end of the connecting rod away from the conductive connector passes through the closed end of the sleeve and is snapped to the spacing element. 16. The probe holding table according to claim 15 , wherein the spacing element is a retaining ring, and wherein an end of the connecting rod away from the conductive connector has a clamping slot, and the retaining ring is snapped to the clamping slot. 17. The probe holding table according to claim 12 , wherein the conductive connector comprises a conductive roller, a holder, and a shaft, and wherein the conductive roller is rotatably disposed on the holder by the shaft, the holder is connected to the connecting rod, and the conductive roller is in electrical communication with the conductive rail. 18. The probe holding table according to claim 12 , wherein an end of the connecting rod away the conductive connector has a terminal disposed thereon. 19. A medical equipment, comprising: the probe holding table according to claim 1 , and a plurality of power consumption units, circularly disposed on the faceplate, and each of the power consumption units is electrically connected to the probe holding table.
