Abstract

A bracket, a thrombelastography device, and a support system are disclosed. The bracket comprises: a fixed support part ( 101 ), a movable support part ( 102 ), and a connection part ( 103 ). The connection part comprises a first fixing connection member ( 1031 ) and a second fixing connection member ( 1032 ). The first fixing connection member is fixedly connected to the fixed support part; the second fixing connection member is fixedly connected to the movable support part; the first fixing connection member is connected to the second fixing connection member in point contact fashion, such that the first fixing connection member and the second fixing connection member can rotate relative to each other; the movable support part is fixedly connected to a supported object; when driven by the supported object, the movable support part rotates relative to the fixed support part by means of the point contact between the first fixing connection member and the second fixing connection member. The thrombelastography device comprises a rotational shaft and a bracket. The rotational resistance to the supported object when it rotates can be reduced.

Claims (51)

1. A bracket, comprising:

a fixed support part, a movable support part, a connection part, and at least a pair of magnets, wherein

the connection part comprises a first fixing connection member and a second fixing connection member;

the first fixing connection member is fixedly connected to the fixed support part;

the second fixing connection member is fixedly connected to the movable support part;

the first fixing connection member is connected to the second fixing connection member in point contact fashion, such that the first fixing connection member and the second fixing connection member can rotate relative to each other;

the movable support part is fixedly connected to a supported object supported by the bracket;

when driven by the supported object, the movable support part rotates relative to the fixed support part by means of the point contact between the first fixing connection member and the second fixing connection member; and

wherein for each pair of magnets, the first magnet is fixed to one side, close to the movable support part, on the fixed support part, and the second magnet is fixed to one side, close to the fixed support part, on the movable support part; and

the first magnet and the second magnet are stacked in parallel, and two surfaces that are close to each other have like magnetic poles,

wherein

the movable support part is of a regular quadrangular frame structure having a through hole in the middle, and comprises a first crossbeam, a second crossbeam, a first longitudinal beam and a second longitudinal beam, wherein the first crossbeam is fixedly connected to the second fixing connection member;

the fixed support part passes through the through hole in the movable support part, and is connected to the first crossbeam of the movable support part by means of the connection part; and

the second crossbeam of the movable support part is fixedly connected to the supported object.

2. The bracket according to claim 1 , wherein the first fixing connection member is a bearing, and the second fixing connection member is of a tapered structure;

or

the first fixing connection member is of a tapered structure, and the second fixing connection member is a bearing; wherein

the bearing is provided with a tapered groove, and the tip of the tapered structure is located in the tapered groove, such that the tapered structure is connected to the bearing in point contact fashion.

3. The bracket according to claim 1 , wherein

the first fixing connection member comprises a jewel bearing, and the second fixing connection member comprises a top cone;

or

the first fixing connection member comprises a top cone, and the second fixing connection member comprises a jewel bearing; wherein

the jewel bearing is provided with a tapered groove; the top cone may be of a tapered structure; the tip of the top cone is located in the tapered groove on the jewel bearing; and the top cone is connected to the jewel bearing in point contact fashion.

4. The bracket according to claim 1 , wherein

the fixed support part is of a U-shaped support structure and comprises two longitudinal beams and a crossbeam fixedly connected between the two longitudinal beams; and

the crossbeam is fixedly connected to the first fixing connection member.

5. The bracket according to claim 4 , wherein the two longitudinal beams are fixed to a support surface to support the crossbeam, and support the movable support part by means of the connection part.

6. A bracket, comprising:

a fixed support part, a movable support part, a connection part, and at least a pair of magnets, wherein

the connection part comprises a first fixing connection member and a second fixing connection member;

the first fixing connection member is fixedly connected to the fixed support part;

the second fixing connection member is fixedly connected to the movable support part;

the first fixing connection member is connected to the second fixing connection member in point contact fashion, such that the first fixing connection member and the second fixing connection member can rotate relative to each other;

the movable support part is fixedly connected to a supported object supported by the bracket;

when driven by the supported object, the movable support part rotates relative to the fixed support part by means of the point contact between the first fixing connection member and the second fixing connection member; and

wherein for each pair of magnets, the first magnet is fixed to one side, close to the movable support part, on the fixed support part, and the second magnet is fixed to one side, close to the fixed support part, on the movable support part; and

the first magnet and the second magnet are stacked in parallel, and two surfaces that are close to each other have like magnetic poles,

wherein

the fixed support part is of a support structure that comprises two longitudinal beams and two crossbeams fixedly connected between the two longitudinal beams, wherein a through hole is formed between the two crossbeams; and

the movable support part passes through the through hole and is connected to the crossbeam in the middle of the support structure by means of the connection part.

7. The bracket according to claim 6 , wherein the two longitudinal beams are fixed to a support surface to support the two crossbeams, and support the movable support part by means of the connection part.

8. A thrombelastography device, comprising a rotational shaft and the bracket according to claim 1 , wherein

the rotational shaft which serves as the supported object is fixedly connected to the movable support part in the bracket; and

the rotational shaft can drive the movable support part to rotate under the driving force of the measured blood.

9. The thrombelastography device according to claim 8 , wherein

when the fixed support part is of a U-shaped support structure or a support structure comprising two longitudinal beams and two crossbeams fixedly connected between the two longitudinal beams, wherein a through hole is formed between the two crossbeams, the thrombelastography device further comprises a fixed platform, wherein

the fixed platform is fixedly connected to the two longitudinal beams of the fixed support part.

10. The thrombelastography device according to claim 9 , further comprising a lifting mechanism, wherein

the lifting mechanism is connected to the fixed platform and drives the fixed platform to ascend or descend.
