Project Name: Medical Oximeter Finger Clamp Design
Cooperation content: design analysis | appearance design | structural design | prototype production | accompanying running assistance
This is the three design directions (A, B and C) of the medical oximeter finger clip introduced by sogot to locate the medical/domestic rapid detection tool of blood oxygen saturation. Its design revolves around "the accuracy of blood oxygen detection and the use experience of different scenes", and realizes the differentiated adaptation of medical detection scenes in form, function layout and details, it is a design sample of "functional rationality" and "user-friendly" integration of medical portable devices.
1. Design Analysis: Function Adaptation Logic for Blood Oxygen Detection Scenarios
The core scenarios of the medical oximeter finger clip cover "batch testing in medical institutions, personal portable monitoring, and long-term bedside monitoring", and the underlying logic of the three scenarios is centered on "scenario demand priority:
Similarities and differences of functional modules: all three schemes integrate the three core modules of "finger clamp detection area (built-in blood oxygen sensor), operation key area and cable connection area" to adapt to the minimalist process of "finger clamping → start detection → reading blood oxygen data"-this is the core requirement of "fast response" of blood oxygen detection. The difference is in scene adaptation:
Direction A (split type fixing piece): It is suitable for batch management scenes of medical institutions. The fixing piece is convenient for centralized storage of the table top of the consultation room to avoid equipment clutter;
Direction B (compact integrated): suitable for personal portable scenes, compact form can be put into pocket/bag, to meet the daily or out of the rapid monitoring;
Direction C (curve holding type): It is suitable for long-term monitoring scenes beside the bed, and fits the curve shape of the palm to improve the holding comfort and reduce the fatigue of long-term holding.
Medical properties of the material: all use "medical grade antibacterial ABS plastic", not only to ensure the health and safety of contact with the skin (in line with the sterile requirements of medical scenes), but also have the characteristics of resistance to falling, easy to clean-to adapt to the high-frequency use of medical institutions, personal scenes of daily wear and tear needs.
2. Design Language: Clean and Gentle Aesthetics of Medical Portable Devices
The design language of the three schemes is "clean and gentle" as the common tone, and the scene attributes are transmitted through the morphological differences:
Commonality: expression of medical friendliness: "white and light blue" as the core color-white conveys the cognition of "sterile and clean" medical scene, while light blue as the embellishment color weakens the "cold feeling" of medical equipment and relieves the tension of users (especially patients) on testing tools; The round shape without sharp edges and corners further strengthens the perception of "safety and affinity.
Difference: Scenario style breakdown:
Direction A: Independent fixings in split form, transmitting the style of "regular and easy to manage", and adapting to the standardized management requirements of medical institutions;
Direction B: Compact straight tube form, which conveys the style of "light and easy to carry" and adapts to the daily monitoring needs of individual users "at hand;
Direction C: Curved holding form, which conveys the style of "comfortable and easy to hold" and adapts to the experience needs of long-term hand-held monitoring by bedside patients.
3. Design Details: Accuracy and Experience Support of Blood Oxygen Detection
The detailed design revolves around "the accuracy of blood oxygen detection and the use pain points in different scenarios:
Details of the detection area: the inner side of the finger clip of the three schemes adopts "arc-shaped fitting design soft rubber cushion layer"-the arc-shaped structure is suitable for fingers of different thicknesses (covering most adults and some children's finger shapes). the soft rubber cushion layer not only improves the comfort of the finger clip (avoiding pinching), but also enables the blood oxygen sensor to fit the skin more closely to ensure the accuracy of the detection data.
Operation area details:
The key of direction A adopts "embedded logo" to avoid accidental touch during batch storage;
The light blue convex button in direction B strengthens the operation recognition in the compact form, and can quickly locate the button even if it is blind;
The key in direction C is integrated with the grip area, and the operation can be triggered when the fingers are naturally held, which is suitable for the convenient needs of long-term monitoring.
Portable/management details: the fixing parts in direction a adopt "light blue modular design", which is convenient for medical institutions to distinguish different types of equipment; The cable interface in direction B has been "bent-proof" to prolong the service life of the cable in personal portable scenarios. "Anti-skid texture" is added to the grip area in direction C to avoid equipment falling off due to hand slippage during bedside monitoring.
4. Ergonomics: Comfortable Adaptation for Blood Oxygen Testing
The ergonomic design of the three schemes is optimized for the "operation posture of different scenarios:
The universality of finger clamp adaptation: the opening and closing angle of the finger clamp is ≥ 45, which can easily clamp fingers of different thicknesses, and the clamping pressure is controlled within the range of "comfortable and not loose"-not only to ensure the adhesion between the sensor and the skin (to ensure accurate data), but also to prevent finger numbness due to excessive clamping force (to adapt to long-term monitoring).
Scenario adaptation of the operation attitude:
Direction A: The height of the fixing piece is suitable for the natural height of the elbow of the "office table top operation", and the doctor can take and place the equipment without bending down;
Direction B: The compact form is suitable for the posture of "holding fingers with one hand", and individual users can complete the detection process with one hand;
Direction C: The curved holding area fits the natural radian of the palm, adapts to the posture of "holding for a long time", and reduces the muscle tension of the hand of the patient beside the bed.
Conclusion: Experiential sample of medical portable equipment
The three medical oximeter finger clip design is a symbiotic sample of "scene segmentation" and "experience optimization" of medical portable devices. It supports the core requirements of blood oxygen detection on the basis of functional modularity, dispels the cold feeling of medical tools with clean and gentle design language, ensures the accuracy of detection and scene adaptation with detail optimization, and adapts the operation posture of different users with ergonomics.
At the moment when the demand for blood oxygen monitoring is becoming more and more routine, this design not only improves the efficiency and accuracy of blood oxygen detection, but also redefines the value of "medical portable equipment"-it is no longer a simple medical tool, but a health assistant partner that takes into account "medical professional attributes" and "user experience temperature.
