FINGER OXIMETER WITH FINGER GRIP SUSPENSION SYSTEM

摘要

A finger oximeter has a fixed first finger grip member (4) and a second fing er grip member (2) that is movable relative to the first fixed finger grip memb er (4).The finger grip members are mounted to a casing (22), with the first gri p member (4) being fixedly coupled to a top portion of the casing (22) and the second f inger grip member (2) being movable vertically within the casing (22). A force is continuously applied against the movable finger grip member (2) to bias it towards the fixed finger gripping member (4). This biasing force has sufficient yield so that when a finger is inserted between the two finger grip members (2,4),the movable finger grip member (2) would yield to the incoming finger.The biasing forse is evenly distributed to the movable finger grip portion (2) to effect a floating finger grip suspension system f or the finger oximeter.
