Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of orthopedic appliances for non-surgical treatment of bones or joints, as well as the fields of electrotherapy, magnetic therapy, and radiotherapy, and particularly relates to a postpartum infrared rehabilitation treatment device. Background Art

[0002] After a woman gives birth, many physiological changes occur in her body, and the change in the pelvis is particularly significant. During the delivery process, in order for the fetus to pass through the birth canal smoothly, the pelvic joints of the woman will expand, and tissues such as muscles and ligaments around the pelvis will also be stretched and damaged to varying degrees. This change not only affects the physical beauty of the woman, such as wider hips and loose lower abdomen, but may also cause a series of health problems, such as pelvic floor dysfunction, manifested as urinary incontinence, uterine prolapse, etc., seriously affecting the quality of life of postpartum women. Therefore, postpartum pelvic repair is of crucial significance for the physical recovery and health maintenance of women.

[0003] The prior art discloses a postpartum pelvic repair device. When in use, the patient lies supine on the device, and the gear-rack mechanism is driven by the legs. When the gear rotates, the upper and lower pressing plates are driven by the connecting rod mechanism connected thereto, and the upper and lower pressing plates then repeatedly squeeze the pelvis to achieve the effect of repairing the pelvis. This device promotes the reduction of pelvic joints and the recovery of surrounding muscles and ligaments by moving and squeezing the pelvis. However, the following problems still exist in the actual application of this device:

[0004] 1. This device relies on the active movement of the patient's legs to drive the entire repair process. However, postpartum women are physically weak, and their physical strength and endurance are relatively poor. Actively separating the legs to the limit and then closing them repeatedly for a long time is a very physically exhausting task for postpartum women, and many patients are difficult to persist in sufficient exercise time and intensity, thus unable to achieve the ideal pelvic repair effect.

[0005] 2. This device uses the upper and lower pressing plates to squeeze the pelvis, and the rigid squeezing may cause additional damage to the soft tissues and nerves around the pelvis, triggering discomfort symptoms such as pain and swelling, affecting the patient's rehabilitation experience and effect.

[0006] 3. A large number of mechanical components in this device, such as gears, racks, connecting rods, and upper and lower pressing plates, are in a naked state. This naked structure has various hidden dangers. On the one hand, for users, during the operation of the device, the naked components are prone to accidental injuries such as bumps and scratches. On the other hand, the naked structure exposes the mechanical components directly to the external environment, making them vulnerable to pollution such as dust and moisture, accelerating the wear and aging of the components, reducing the service life and stability of the device, and thus affecting the pelvic repair effect and sustainability. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The present invention aims to provide a postpartum infrared rehabilitation treatment device to solve the problem that the existing technology relies on the patient's legs to drive the entire repair process, which is very labor-consuming.

[0008] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0009] A postpartum infrared rehabilitation treatment device includes a treatment bed. A pelvic placement groove is provided on the treatment bed. An infrared heater is provided at the bottom of the pelvic placement groove. A transparent bottom plate is provided at the bottom of the pelvic placement groove. An installation seat is provided at the tail of the treatment bed. Two fixing plates are slidably provided on the installation seat. A synchronous driving mechanism is provided in the installation seat. The synchronous driving mechanism is used to drive the two fixing plates to separate or approach synchronously. A connecting plate is slidably provided on the fixing plate. A strap is provided on the connecting plate. One end of the strap is fixedly connected to the connecting plate, and the other end of the strap is detachably connected to the connecting plate.

[0010] Preferably, as an improvement, the synchronous driving mechanism includes a first rack, a second rack and a gear. The first rack and the second rack are respectively fixedly connected to the two fixing plates. The gear is engaged between the first rack and the second rack. The first rack is connected to a cylinder.

[0011] Preferably, as an improvement, air bags are provided on two side walls of the pelvic placement groove. A piston chamber is provided in the installation seat. A piston is slidably provided in the piston chamber. The piston is connected to the second rack. The piston chamber is communicated with an air inlet pipe. A one-way intake valve is installed on the air inlet pipe. An air outlet pipe is communicated between the piston chamber and the air bag. A one-way outlet valve is installed on the air outlet pipe.

[0012] Preferably, as an improvement, an air duct is provided in the side wall of the pelvic placement groove. A heating plate is provided in the air duct. A plurality of air holes are opened on the side wall of the pelvic placement groove. An air outlet pipe is also communicated between the air duct and the piston chamber.

[0013] Preferably, as an improvement, the installation seat is slidably provided on the treatment bed.

[0014] Preferably, as an improvement, when the fixing plates are separated, the air bags are inflated through the air outlet pipe.

[0015] Preferably, as an improvement, the installation seat is slidably provided on the treatment bed.

[0016] The principle and beneficial effects of this solution are:

[0017] 1. The driving of the two legs is achieved through a synchronous driving mechanism. The air cylinder pushes the first rack to move. Since the gear meshes with both the first rack and the second rack simultaneously, according to the gear transmission principle, when the first rack moves, the gear will rotate, thereby driving the second rack to move in the opposite direction. The two racks are respectively fixedly connected to the corresponding fixed plates, so the two fixed plates will be driven by the racks to separate or approach synchronously. The patient's legs are placed on the connecting plates of the fixed plates and fixed by straps. In this way, the movement of the fixed plates can drive the patient's legs to repeatedly separate and close, without the patient actively flexing and extending the legs to drive the repair process. It changes the way of driving repair by relying on the active movement of the patient's legs in the prior art. By driving the synchronous driving mechanism with an air cylinder to drive the legs to move, it greatly reduces the physical burden of postpartum women. Even if the patient is physically weak and has limited leg movement ability, the device can still be used normally for pelvic repair, expanding the scope of applicable population and ensuring that the patient can continuously and effectively carry out pelvic repair treatment and improve the repair effect. In addition, relying on the power to actively drive the patient's legs to move can also have enough power to drive other structures such as racks and gears to move synchronously.

[0018] 2. When the second rack moves, the piston connected to it reciprocates in the piston chamber. When the piston moves towards the direction close to the air outlet pipe, the gas in the piston chamber is compressed and enters the airbag through the one-way air outlet valve on the air outlet pipe, thereby realizing the inflation and extrusion of the airbag. When the second rack moves in the reverse direction, the airbag deflates, realizing the process of repeatedly squeezing the pelvis. In addition to driving the pelvis to move by driving the legs to move, the function of the airbag squeezing the pelvis is added, which further promotes the reduction of the pelvic joint and the recovery of the surrounding muscles and ligaments.

[0019] 3. In this solution, it is set that when the fixed plates separate, air is blown into the airbag and the air passage. At this time, the legs are separated, and the muscles and ligaments around the pelvis are in a stretched state. At this time, the airbag is inflated and extruded, which can further increase the stretching degree of the muscles and ligaments, helping to improve the flexibility of the muscles and ligaments. At the same time, it can help to stabilize the pelvis and keep the pelvis in the correct position. In addition, when hot air is blown at this time, the heat is more likely to penetrate into the stretched muscle tissue, which can better promote the blood circulation of the muscles, help relax the muscle fibers tense due to stretching, and reduce the risk of muscle strain.

[0020] 4. The airbag has good flexibility and deformability, can be adaptively adjusted according to the shape and contour of the pelvis, closely fits the body, avoids the possible gaps or non - fitting phenomena between the rigid pressing plate and the body, and makes the patient feel more comfortable during the treatment. In addition, the airbag can evenly distribute the pressure around the pelvis, and will not generate excessive pressure points locally like a rigid pressing plate, thus reducing the discomfort and compression feeling of the patient. Moreover, the uniform pressure distribution can prevent local tissues from being over - pressed, resulting in poor blood circulation, and reduce the occurrence probability of problems such as local ischemia and skin damage. In addition, in this solution, the airbag is used for extrusion. Compared with the extrusion by an extrusion plate in the prior art, there is no need to set up structures such as exposed connecting rods, which avoids the problem of accelerated aging caused by the exposure of the structure from the root, and also avoids accidental injuries such as bumps and scratches caused by the exposure of the structure.

[0021] 5. The piston chamber is connected to the air duct. When the piston squeezes the gas into the airbag, part of the gas will also enter the air duct. A heating plate is arranged in the air duct, and the gas is heated by the heating plate when passing through the air duct. The heated gas blows out from the air holes on the side wall of the pelvis placement groove, forming a hot wind blowing towards the pelvis. On the basis of the pelvis being driven to move by the movement of the legs and the airbag squeezing the pelvis, the blowing of the hot wind is further combined to promote local blood circulation in the pelvis, relieve muscle tension, and combine with the airbag squeezing and leg movement to achieve the synergistic effect of multiple repair means, improving the repair efficiency and effect.

[0022] 6. An infrared heater is arranged at the bottom of the pelvis placement groove. The infrared rays generated by the infrared heater can act on the pelvis through the transparent bottom plate to achieve infrared treatment. Infrared treatment can penetrate deep into the pelvis tissue, promote cell metabolism, and accelerate tissue repair. The design of the transparent bottom plate not only does not affect the transmission of infrared rays, but also ensures the structural integrity of the pelvis placement groove, improving the practicability and safety of the device.

[0023] 7. The mounting seat is slidably arranged on the treatment bed, increasing the flexibility of the device, facilitating the patient to adjust the position according to their own needs, being applicable to patients of different heights, and expanding the scope of application.

[0028] The following is a further detailed description through specific implementation manners:

[0029] The reference numerals in the accompanying drawings of the specification include: treatment bed 1, mounting seat 2, fixing plate 3, connecting plate 31, strap 32, fixing seat 4, bottom plate 41, ventilation holes 42, airbag 43, air holes 44, first rack 5, gear 51, second rack 52, piston chamber 6, piston 61, intake pipe 62, one-way intake valve 63, outlet pipe 64, one-way outlet valve 65.

[0030] Embodiment 1:

[0031] As Figure 1 shown, a postpartum infrared rehabilitation treatment device includes a treatment bed 1. A fixing seat 4 is fixed in the middle of the treatment bed 1. A pelvic placement groove is formed in the middle of the fixing seat 4. An infrared heater is installed in an installation cavity opened in the treatment bed 1 at the bottom of the pelvic placement groove. A transparent bottom plate 41 is installed at the top of the installation cavity as the bottom plate 41 of the pelvic placement groove to avoid blocking infrared rays. Ventilation holes 42 are formed in the bottom plate 41. The infrared heater adopts an infrared light-emitting diode, an infrared ceramic heater, a quartz infrared heating tube, etc. The infrared heater is 15 - 20 cm away from the pelvic placement groove. In actual use, the bottom plate 41 can be hinged to the top of the installation cavity to facilitate opening for maintaining the infrared heater.

[0032] Combined with Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, an installation seat 2 is fixed at the tail of the treatment bed 1. Two fixing plates 3 are slidably installed on the surface of the installation seat 2 facing the fixing seat 4 (transverse sliding grooves are formed in the installation seat 2, and the tails of the fixing plates 3 are inserted into the sliding grooves for sliding). A synchronous driving mechanism is arranged in the installation seat 2. The synchronous driving mechanism is used to drive the two fixing plates 3 to separate or approach synchronously. Specifically, the synchronous driving mechanism includes a first rack 5, a second rack 52 and a gear 51. The first rack 5 and the second rack 52 are arranged up and down and are both slidably installed in the installation seat 2. The gear 51 is engaged between the first rack 5 and the second rack 52. The left end of the first rack 5 is bolted and fixed to the left fixing plate 3. The right end of the first rack 5 is connected to a cylinder (not shown in the figure). The right end of the second rack 52 is bolted and fixed to the right fixing plate 3.

[0033] On both side walls of the pelvic placement groove, an airbag 43 is adhesively fixed. A piston chamber 6 is arranged inside the mounting seat 2. The piston chamber 6 is located on the right side of the second rack 52. A piston 61 is slidably arranged inside the piston chamber 6, and the piston 61 is fixedly connected to the right end of the second rack 52. The right end of the piston chamber 6 is communicated with an air inlet pipe 62, and a one-way intake valve 63 is installed on the air inlet pipe 62. A gas outlet pipe 64 is also communicated between the right end of the piston chamber 6 and the airbag 43, and a one-way exhaust valve 65 is installed on the gas outlet pipe 64. A wire groove is arranged inside the treatment bed 1, and the gas outlet pipe 64 is placed inside the wire groove. When the two fixing plates 3 are separated, the second rack 52 drives the piston 61 to move rightward inside the piston chamber 6, and the gas inside the piston chamber 6 is squeezed into the gas outlet pipe 64 to inflate the airbag 43.

[0034] On both of the two fixing plates 3, a connecting plate 31 is slidably arranged (a sliding groove is formed along the length direction on the surface of the fixing plate 3, a slider is integrally formed at the bottom of the connecting plate 31, and the slider is slidably connected inside the sliding groove. The end of the sliding groove is sealed to prevent the slider from slipping off). A strap 32 is arranged on the connecting plate 31. One end of the strap 32 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 31, and the other end of the strap 32 is detachably connected to the connecting plate 31. The specific detachable manner can be realized through a magic tape.

[0035] A using method of a postpartum infrared rehabilitation treatment device:

[0036] The patient lies supine on the treatment bed 1, the pelvic part is placed inside the pelvic placement groove, and the legs are placed on the two fixing plates 3 and are tied and fixed from the ankles through the strap 32. The infrared heater and the air cylinder are started. The infrared heater generates infrared rays that act on the patient's pelvis for infrared treatment. At the same time, the air cylinder drives the first rack 5 to slide back and forth. The first rack 5 drives the second rack 52 to slide back and forth through the gear 51, thereby driving the two fixing plates 3 to synchronously move outward and separate or move inward and close. Repeating like this drives the patient's legs to open and close, and at the same time drives the pelvis to move through the movement of the legs, promotes blood circulation, adjusts the position of the pelvis, and realizes the repair of the pelvis.

[0037] When the second rack 52 moves, the piston 61 connected thereto slides within the piston chamber 6. When the piston 61 moves to the left, the air pressure within the piston chamber 6 decreases, and outside air enters the piston chamber 6 through the one-way intake valve 63 on the intake pipe 62 under the action of atmospheric pressure; when the piston 61 moves to the right, the gas within the piston chamber 6 is compressed. Since the one-way intake valve 63 prevents the gas from flowing back, the compressed gas can only enter the airbag 43 through the one-way exhaust valve 65 on the exhaust pipe 64, thereby realizing the inflation of the airbag 43. When the second rack 52 moves in the reverse direction, the airbag 43 deflates. Repeating this process, as the second rack 52 moves, the pelvis is repeatedly squeezed by the airbag 43. Thus, based on infrared rays and pelvic movement, combined with the synergistic effect of the airbag 43 squeezing the pelvis, the repair of the pelvis is achieved in all directions. It should be noted that the airbag 43 inflates when the second rack 52 moves to the right, that is, the airbag 43 inflates when the patient's legs are separated. At this time, the range of motion of the pelvic joints increases and the muscles are stretched. At this time, squeezing by the airbag 43 can further increase the degree of stretching of the muscles and ligaments, which helps to improve the flexibility of the muscles and ligaments. At the same time, it can help to stabilize the pelvis and keep the pelvis in the correct position.

[0038] Since the patient's legs rotate around the pelvis, when the legs are separated, the ankles tend to slide outward within the straps 32. If the straps 32 are fixedly arranged, the ankles are restricted by the fixed points and cannot move freely, which causes the straps 32 to form a tight state at the ankles, and the pressure is concentrated around the ankles, exacerbating the pressure. Therefore, in this application, the connecting plate 31 connecting the straps 32 is slidably arranged on the fixing plate 3. When the patient's legs are separated, the connecting plate 31 can slide slightly on the fixing plate 3 accordingly, so that the straps 32 can automatically fine-tune their positions according to the movement of the ankles, avoiding excessive tightness caused by the restriction of the fixed points, keeping the relative position between the straps 32 and the ankles in a relatively comfortable state, and effectively relieving the concentration of pressure.

[0039] Embodiment 2:

[0040] Combined with Figure 4 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that an air passage (not shown in the figure) is opened within the side wall of the pelvis placement groove, and a heating plate is installed within the air passage. The heating plate uses a ceramic heating plate or a mica heating plate. The side wall of the pelvis placement groove below the airbag 43 is set as an arc surface, and a plurality of air holes 44 are opened on this arc surface. The air holes 44 are the strip-shaped air holes 44 shown in the figure, and in actual use, they can also be uniformly distributed round holes. The air holes 44 communicate with the air passage, the air holes 44 are arranged to avoid the airbag 43, and the air passage is also connected to the piston chamber 6 through the exhaust pipe 64.

[0041] While the piston 61 squeezes the gas into the airbag 43, part of the gas also enters the air duct. A heating plate is arranged in the air duct. The gas is heated by the heating plate when passing through the air duct, and the heated gas is blown out from the air holes 44 on the side wall of the pelvis placement groove, forming hot air blowing towards the pelvis. The hot air blowing not only helps blood circulation, but also brings a warm and comfortable feeling to the patient, improving the patient's treatment experience. On the basis of the synergistic effects of the patient's leg movement driving the pelvis movement, infrared irradiation treatment, and airbag extrusion, this embodiment further adds the synergistic effect of hot air to further improve the treatment effect.

[0042] Embodiment 3:

[0043] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the mounting seat 2 is slidably arranged on the treatment bed 1 through a chute and a slider. Specifically, a chute (not shown in the figure) is opened on the surface of the treatment bed 1 along the length direction, and a slider is welded and fixed to the bottom of the mounting seat 2. The slider slides in the slide rail so that the mounting seat 2 is slidably arranged on the treatment bed 1. The flexibility of the device is increased, and the position can be adjusted according to personal needs during use, which can be adapted to patients of different heights, expanding the scope of application.

[0044] The above are only the embodiments of the present invention.

It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, without departing from the technical solution of the present invention, several deformations and improvements can still be made, which should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention, and these will not affect the implementation effect of the present invention and the practicality of the patent. The protection scope required by this application should be based on the content of its claims, and the specific implementation manners described in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
