Embodiment 1

[0022] Embodiment 1: This foot-ankle joint ligament protector includes an ankle brace 1, an arch pad 2, several fixed structures 3 and an ankle pad 4, and the ankle brace 1 is worn at the patient's ankle joint, The bottom of the ankle brace 1 is placed with the arch pad 2 at the position of the patient's foot, and the outer side of the ankle brace 1 is wrapped with a set of fixed structures 3 and the ankle pad 4, wherein the Ankle pad 4 fits on the patient's medial malleolus, lateral malleolus and foot profile respectively.

Embodiment 2

[0023] Embodiment 2: By using three-quarters of the arch pad + ankle brace, it has a stable midfoot, supports the arch of the foot and limits the movement of the ankle joint; and adopts a soft fixed structure, wrapping the ankle brace with a soft nylon buckle and inner and outer ankle pads, so that they fit the shape of the inner malleolus, outer malleolus and foot respectively, and can be perfectly applied to these bony protrusions to play a role of fixed protection, and share part of the stress when the ankle joint moves, allowing certain activities Limit, increase sensory input, and protect the ankle.

Embodiment 3

[0024] Embodiment 3: the ankle brace 1, the arch pad 2, the fixing structure 3 and the ankle pad 4 in embodiment 1 all have a certain degree of elasticity. Since all structures have a certain degree of elasticity, And the breathable and ultra-thin design and manufacture are carried out, so that side effects such as allergies can be avoided, and it is convenient to wear.

Abstract

The invention provides a protective device for a foot ankle joint ligament, wherein the protective device includes an ankle brace, a foot arch pad, a plurality of fixing structures and ankle protection pads. The ankle brace is worn at a foot ankle joint of a patient; the foot arch pad is placed at the bottom of the ankle brace and at the foot sole position of the patient; the outer side of the ankle brace is wrapped with a group of fixing structures and the ankle protection pads, wherein the ankle protection pads are attached to a medial malleolus, lateral malleolus and foot contour of the patient respectively; with a biomechanics principle, and through the support of the foot arch, the stress state of the foot ankle bone joint and the ligament is improved, the foot ankle bone joint ligament is protected, and the secondary injury is reduced; the protrusion of bones is fully utilized, the position of the protective device is fixed, and slippage failure is avoided. The effects of increasing the ankle joint stability and preventing and treating sprain of ankle joint are achieved, and new treatment and protection measures are provided for vast patients with foot ankle joint ligamentousinjury and after foot ankle surgery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a foot and ankle joint ligament protector, which belongs to the field of foot and ankle joint protection devices. Background technique [0002] Ankle sprain is a common clinical disease, accounting for about 25% of musculoskeletal system injuries, and has the highest incidence rate among joint and ligament injuries. The ankle joint is composed of the ankle points at the lower end of the tibia and the lower end of the fibula and the trochlea of ​​the talus. It is the most weight-bearing joint in the human body. Ankle stability is important both in everyday life and in sports. The integrity of the bone structure and ligaments of the foot is an important factor affecting the stability of the ankle joint. Ankle joint sprains mainly occur in the lateral anterior talofibular ligament, posterior talofibular ligament, calcaneofibular ligament and medial triangular ligament (divided into tibial navicular ligament, tibial calcaneal lig...
