Abstract
A stethoscope head with adjustable audio frequency includes a head body, a diaphragm and a fastener. The diaphragm includes an annular step and a footing, and is disposed on a sound collecting surface on a front side of the head body and fixed on the head body by the fastener. An outer marginal part of a front side of the head body is provided with the annular step, and screw threads are provided on a step surface of the annular step. An annular groove is provided at the sound collecting surface inside the annular step. The inner surface of the annular groove and the bottom surface of annular recess form an obtuse angle γ. The diaphragm footing is disposed in the annular groove. The stethoscope head of the invention is convenient to assemble and the sound effect can be adjusted continuously.
Claims15
A stethoscope head with an adjustable audio frequency, comprising:
- a head body having an annular step and a sound collecting surface at a front side of the head body, an annular recess being provided on the sound collecting surface and formed in part by an inner side of a step surface of the annular step of the head body;
- an annular fastener having an inner wall and screw threads provided on the inner wall;
- and
- a diaphragm having an annular step and a footing, the diaphragm disposed on the sound collecting surface of the head body by the annular fastener, the footing of the diaphragm being disposed in the annular recess and directly contacting with the annular recess at an annular circumference,
- wherein the diaphragm is movable relative to the head body,
- wherein a position of the diaphragm relative to the head body is configured to change as the annular fastener is rotated along the screw threads, and
- wherein, when the stethoscope head is in operation, the annular circumference is configured to move along an inner side surface of the annular recess in response to a change in the position of the diaphragm to regulate the audio frequency received by the diaphragm.
A stethoscope head with an adjustable audio frequency, comprising:
- a head body having an annular step and a sound collecting surface at a front side of the head body, the sound collecting surface having an annular protrusion;
- an annular fastener having an inner wall and screw threads provided on the inner wall;
- and
- a diaphragm having an annular step and a footing, the diaphragm disposed on the sound collecting surface of the head by the annular fastener and movable relative to the head body,
- wherein the footing of the diaphragm is disposed between an inner side of a step surface of the annular step of the head body and an outer side of the annular protrusion, and directly contacts with the sound collecting surface of the head body at an annular circumference that is configured to move along the inner side of the step surface when the stethoscope head is in operation,
- wherein the diaphragm is configured to receive a high audio frequency in response to the diaphragm being pressed down and contacting the annular protrusion, and
- wherein the diaphragm is configured to receive a low audio frequency when not in contact with the annular protrusion.
