Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of medical clothing, in particular to a kind of clothing which can reduce the pressure on the spine and pelvis of patients who have been bedridden for a long time. Background Art

[0002] Long-term poor sleeping posture or forced supine position may lead to diseases and pain symptoms of the spine and pelvis. Therefore, we recommend that patients reduce the pressure on the spine and pelvis by raising the knees when sleeping. A lower pillow under the knees can avoid excessive traction on the spine, especially the lumbar spine, so that the spine and head are kept in a straight line, and the hip joint and pelvis are maintained in a comfortable state. If you adopt bad postures such as leaning or half-lying when resting, the body will bend unnaturally. Especially when half-lying, the lumbar spine lacks sufficient support, and the force on the intervertebral disc increases, which can easily induce or aggravate muscle strain, scoliosis, cervical spondylosis, low back pain, and lumbar disc herniation. Therefore, it is recommended to raise the waist to increase support and reduce the force on the intervertebral disc.

[0003] But in fact, the use of exogenous soft pillows or lumbar pillows can easily shift after falling asleep or even fall under the bed and lose their original function. Based on this, a garment is proposed that can reduce the pressure on the spine and pelvis of long-term bedridden patients. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present invention aims to provide a garment that can reduce the pressure on the spine and pelvis of patients who are bedridden for a long time, so as to solve the problem that an exogenous soft pillow or lumbar pillow is easily displaced after falling asleep or even falls under the bed and loses its supporting function.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] A garment capable of relieving the pressure on the spine and pelvis of a patient who has been bedridden for a long time comprises a garment, a trousers, a soft pad and a fixing device. The rear waist of the garment is provided with a fixing device, and the inner side and rear side of the popliteal fossa of the trousers are respectively provided with fixing devices, and the fixing devices fix the soft pad to the garment and the trousers.

[0007] Furthermore, the fixing device is detachable.

[0008] Furthermore, the fixing device is at least one of a sandwich pocket, a snap button or a Velcro.

[0009] Furthermore, when the fixing device is a sandwich pocket, the sandwich opening is closed by a zipper.

[0010] Furthermore, the cushion is in the shape of a shuttle that is thin on all sides and thick in the middle, and is made of memory foam or an inflatable air bag.

[0011] Furthermore, when the soft cushion is an inflatable airbag, it is directly sewn and fixed to both sides of the back waist of the clothes and the inner side and back side of the popliteal fossa of the pants, and the inflatable airbag is provided with an inflation port.

[0012] Furthermore, the volume of the pad arranged on the back waist of the clothes is larger than that of the pad arranged on the pants.

[0013] The principle and beneficial effects of this technical solution:

[0014] The present invention arranges a spindle-shaped cushion made of memory foam or an inflatable air bag, which is thin on the outside and thick on the inside, to the back waist of clothes and the back and inner sides of the popliteal fossa of pants through a fixing device, which can support and raise the knees and waist, so that the patient can maintain a good sleeping posture. Compared with an exogenous soft pillow or a lumbar pillow, the present invention is not easy to move and does not take up space. At the same time, the detachable fixing device makes the present invention more flexible to use. When the patient is lying in bed, the cushion is assembled to the clothes and pants to play a supporting role. When the patient gets out of bed and moves around, the cushion can be removed without affecting the patient's normal rehabilitation activities. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0019] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0020] Embodiment 1

[0021] like Figure 1As shown, a garment that can reduce the pressure on the spine and pelvis of patients who have been bedridden for a long time includes a garment 1, pants 2, a cushion 3 and a fixing device 4. The fixing device 4 is detachable and can be at least one of a sandwich pocket 5, a snap button or a Velcro, or other conventional detachable fixing methods known to those skilled in the art. The back waist of the garment 1 is provided with a fixing device 4, and the inner side and the back side of the popliteal fossa of the pants 2 are respectively provided with a fixing device 4. The fixing device 4 fixes the cushion 3 to the garment 1 and the pants 2. The cushion 3 is a shuttle shape that is thin around and thick in the middle, or other conventional shapes that can play a supporting role, and is made of memory foam or an inflatable airbag 7. Since the supporting structure required for the back waist is larger, the volume of the cushion 3 arranged on the back waist of the garment 1 is larger than the cushion 3 arranged on the pants 2. If the fixing device 4 is a sandwich pocket 5, the sandwich opening is closed by a zipper 6. When in use, the sandwich opening is opened, and the shuttle-shaped soft pad 3 is horizontally placed in the sandwich pocket 5 at the back waist of the clothes 1, and vertically placed in the sandwich pocket 5 on the inner and back sides of the popliteal fossa of the pants 2 to complete the assembly. The present invention sets the shuttle-shaped soft pad 3 made of memory foam or inflatable air bag 7, which is thin on the outside and thick on the inside, to the back and inner sides of the popliteal fossa of the pants 2 through the fixing device 4, which can support and raise the knees and waist, so that the patient can maintain a good sleeping posture. Compared with exogenous soft pillows or lumbar pillows, the present invention is not easy to move and does not take up space. At the same time, the detachable fixing device 4 makes the present invention more flexible to use. When the patient is in bed, the soft pad 3 is assembled to the clothes 1 and the pants 2 to play a supporting role. When the patient gets out of bed and moves around, the soft pad 3 can be removed without affecting the patient's normal rehabilitation activities.

[0022] Embodiment 2

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, when the soft cushion 3 is an inflatable airbag 7, it can be directly sewn and fixed to the back waist of the clothes 1 and the inner and back sides of the popliteal fossa of the pants 2. The inflatable airbag 7 is provided with an inflation port 8. By inflating and deflating the airbag, when the patient is lying in bed, the inflatable airbag 7 is inflated through the inflation port 8, so that the inflatable airbag 7 supports the patient's waist and knees. When the patient gets out of bed and moves around, the gas in the inflatable airbag 7 is released without affecting the patient's normal rehabilitation activities.

[0024] The above is only an embodiment of the present invention, and the common knowledge such as the known specific technical solutions and / or characteristics in the solution is not described in detail here. It should be pointed out that for those skilled in the art, without departing from the technical solution of the present invention, several modifications and improvements can be made, which should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention, and these will not affect the effect of the implementation of the present invention and the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection required by this application shall be based on the content of its claims, and the specific implementation methods and other records in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
