A waist-worn rehabilitation walker

Abstract

The invention discloses a waist-worn rehabilitation walker, which comprises two core supports, a belt for fixing the core supports on the waist, an energy storage device fixedly connected with the core supports on the side of the affected limb, and An energy-assisted device for storing energy for the energy storage device when walking, two leg connectors respectively connected to the energy storage device and the energy-assist device, and a strap for fixing the other end of the leg connector to the leg. The invention adopts a waist-mounted design, which is easy to carry and wear, has a small overall weight, and will not increase the patient’s walking load. The core support is installed on the waist, which is convenient for patients with unsound upper limbs or injuries; It can increase the energy storage of the energy storage device when the healthy lower limbs are walking, and reduce the force of the legs when the affected limb is walking, so that the legs can be lifted easily, which is convenient for the patient to walk, and the assisting effect is obvious.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of medical walking equipment, in particular to a waist-worn rehabilitation walker. Background technique [0002] Rehabilitation medicine is a medical applied discipline that studies the rehabilitation of the disabled and patients. Its purpose is to make the sick and disabled get the maximum benefit as soon as possible through various means such as physical therapy, exercise therapy, life training, skill training, speech training and psychological counseling. Restoration to the maximum extent enables the functions of the remaining parts of the body to be brought into full play, to achieve the greatest possible self-care, labor and work abilities, and to lay the foundation for the reintegration of the sick and disabled into society. [0003] According to statistics, there are currently 8.77 million patients with limb dysfunction caused by stroke, spinal cord injury and various accidents in my country, and more than half...

Problems solved by technology

If the patient stays in bed for a long time, it will cause muscle atrophy, joint aging, bedsore, and further loss of limb function, which is not conducive to the early recovery of the body

For patients with unilateral lower limb motor dysfunction, since the other lower limb is healthy and has the ability to stand, rehabilitation exercises should be performed as soon as possible to allow the limb with motor dysfunction to move. There are many ways to move, including self-help walking Or walking with the assistance of an accompanying person is a good way of moving, but when self-help walking, the lower limbs with motor dysfunction cannot fully apply force, and the legs are laborious to lift, so they cannot walk normally. This requires the use of walking aids. In the prior art Most of the walking aids in China are four-legged walking aids with wheels, but it is not convenient for patients with unsound upper limbs or injuries. There are also wearable walking aids. Energy storage, assisting walking, but the spring energy storage is limited, and the assisting effect is not obvious in actual use
