Strain relief apparatus for probe and method of manufacturing the same
View Patent ↗A strain relief apparatus of a probe and a method of manufacturing the same are disclosed. The strain relief apparatus includes an insert part mounted on a probe switch box and having an insertion recess at an inner side thereof, a ferrite core mounted on the insertion recess, and a rubber part provided to the insert part by injection molding. The strain relief apparatus protects a cable of an ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus from impact exerted on the cable and suppresses influence on a contact point between a probe switch box and the cable by bending of the cable, thereby preventing damage of the cable.
1. A strain relief apparatus of a probe comprising:
an insert part mounted on a probe switch box and having an insertion recess at an inner side thereof;
a ferrite core mounted on the insertion recess; and
a rubber part provided to the insert part by injection molding,
wherein the insert part comprises an extension portion extending towards the rubber part to define the insertion recess inside the extension portion, and
the extension portion is formed with an injection groove and the rubber part is formed on the extension portion and the injection groove by insert-injection molding.
2. The strain relief apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the rubber part is provided to the insert part without a step therebetween by the injection molding.
3. The strain relief apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a D-cut portion formed on one side of the insert part to prevent rotation of the insert part mounted on the probe switch box.
