Abstract
Various sensors and methods of assembling sensors are described. In some embodiments, the sensor assembly includes a first end, a body portion, and a second end. The first end can include a neck portion and a connector portion and the second end can include a flap, a first component, a neck portion, and a second component. A method is also described for sensor folding. The method can include using a circuit with an attached emitter and a detector that is separated by a portion of the circuit. The method can also include folding the portion of the circuit such that a first fold is created through the emitter and folding the portion of the circuit such that a second fold is created such that the first fold and second fold form an angle.
Claims (34)
1. A sensor assembly comprising:
a flexible circuit extending between a proximal end and a distal end and having a length, an axis in a plane of the flexible circuit extending along the length;
an emitter on a distal portion of the flexible circuit;
a detector on the distal portion of the flexible circuit;
a first fold formed on the flexible circuit between the emitter and the detector, wherein the first fold is formed through a centerline of the emitter, wherein the first fold positions part of the distal portion of the flexible circuit off the axis of the flexible circuit and within the plane; and
a connector positioned at the proximal end of the flexible circuit.
2. The sensor assembly of claim 1 further comprising a second fold formed on the flexible circuit between the emitter and the detector.
3. The sensor assembly of claim 2 , wherein a neck portion of the flexible circuit extends between the emitter and the detector.
4. The sensor assembly of claim 3 , wherein the first fold and the second fold are formed in the neck portion.
5. The sensor assembly of claim 2 , wherein the first fold and the second fold form a 45 degree angle.
6. The sensor assembly of claim 1 , wherein the emitter is positioned closer towards a center of the flexible circuit than the detector.
7. The sensor assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first fold forms a 45 degree angle in the flexible circuit.
8. The sensor assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first fold forms an angle between 0 to 180 degrees in the flexible circuit.
9. The sensor assembly of claim 1 , wherein the sensor assembly forms an L shape.
10. A method for manufacturing a sensor, the method comprising:
providing a flexible circuit extending between a proximal end and a distal end with an emitter and a detector attached to a distal portion of the flexible circuit, wherein the emitter and detector are separated along a length of the flexible circuit, an axis in a plane of the flexible circuit extending along the length; and
folding, at least once, the portion of the flexible circuit such that a first fold is created to form an angle, wherein the first fold is formed through a centerline of the emitter, and wherein the first fold positions part of the distal portion of the flexible circuit off the axis of the flexible circuit and within the plane.
11. The method of claim 10 further including folding the portion of the flexible circuit such that a second fold is created, wherein the first fold and second fold form an angle.
12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the second fold forms the sensor into an L shape.
13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the second fold forms a 90 degree angle in the sensor.
14. The method of claim 11 , wherein the second fold is formed between the emitter and the detector.
15. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first fold forms a 45 degree angle in the sensor.
16. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first fold forms an angle between 0 to 180 degrees in the sensor.
17. The method of claim 10 , wherein the first fold is formed between the emitter and the detector.
18. The method of claim 10 , further comprising adding a tape to the flexible circuit.
19. A sensor assembly comprising:
a flexible circuit extending between a proximal end and a distal end and having a length, an axis in a plane of the flexible circuit extending along the length;
an emitter on a distal portion of the flexible circuit;
a detector on the distal portion of the flexible circuit;
a first fold formed on the flexible circuit between the emitter and the detector, wherein the first fold positions part of the distal portion of the flexible circuit off the axis of the flexible circuit and within the plane;
a second fold formed on the flexible circuit between the emitter and the detector, a neck portion of the flexible circuit extends between the emitter and the detector and
a connector positioned at the proximal end of the flexible circuit.
20. The sensor assembly of claim 19 , wherein the first fold and the second fold are formed in the neck portion.
21. The sensor assembly of claim 19 , wherein the first fold forms a 45 degree angle in the flexible circuit.
