Defecation-assisting pedal device

Abstract

The invention discloses a defecation-assisting pedal device. The device comprises a pedal plate and a base, wherein the pedal plate is installed on the base through a telescopic rod; a pedal is arranged on the side wall of the base and connected with a height adjusting unit; the height adjusting unit is fixedly arranged between the pedal plate and the base; and the upper portion and the lower portion of the height adjusting unit are fixedly connected with the lower surface of the pedal plate and the upper surface of the base respectively. During use of the device, a user adjusts the height ofthe pedal plate by adjusting the pedal, so the user can defecate smoothly; moreover, the plane where the pedal plate is located inclines upwards by 4-10 degrees compared with the plane where the baseis located, which accords with the normal physiological structure that the front sole slightly inclines upwards when the foot sole of the human body sits, the user feels more comfortable, and defecation is promoted; Yongquan acupoint massage points are arranged on the pedal plate and play a role in massaging Yongquan acupoints on the soles during defecation, and the device plays a role in strengthening physique and keeping defecation smooth for a long time; and the device has the characteristics of convenience in use, humanization, scientization and high practicability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of life care, in particular to a defecation assisting foot pedal. Background technique [0002] Defecation is one of the important daily physiological activities of the human body. Smooth defecation can remove waste and toxins in the body in time and maintain a good metabolism. The correct defecation posture is the key to ensure smooth defecation and prevent constipation. Under the innervation of the puborectalis muscle The timely contraction and relaxation of the pelvic floor muscles and the external anal sphincter are the physiological basis for normal bowel control and defecation. Usually, solid feces are stored in the sigmoid colon or even the descending colon, and the colon and rectum are relaxed. In the state of tension contraction, the contraction of the puborectalis maintains the anorectal angle at about 90 degrees. At this time, the lumen at the anorectal junction is narrow and forms a turning point...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] Therefore, it is very important to maintain the relaxation state of the puborectalis muscle during defecation. Studies have shown that when squatting, the soles of the feet are on the ground, the hip joints and knee joints are flexed, and the trunk is slightly leaned forward. This posture can maximize the puborectalis muscle. The relaxation of the abdominal muscles, and the contraction of the abdominal muscles can help increase the intra-abdominal pressure and promote the smooth discharge of feces, so the squatting position is the most scientific defecation position, but squatting for a long time will cause numbness and soreness in the lower limbs, and the elderly will struggle to stand up and even fall. Therefore, with the improvement of living standards, sitting toilets have gradually replaced squatting toilets; although sitting toilets are more comfortable, but because the center of gravity is shifted back when sitting, the soles of the feet are not firmly on the ground, resulting in insufficient increase in intra-abdominal pressure during defecation; Insufficient flexion of joints and knee joints leads to incomplete relaxation of the puborectalis muscle, incomplete opening of the anorectal angle, and insufficient defecation power. Therefore, from an anatomical point of view, the toilet is not the best defecation posture, especially the height of the toilet cannot be adjusted , when a person with a short stature sits on it, the soles of his feet cannot completely land on the ground, which highlights the disadvantages of the toilet.
