Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical care appliances, in particular to an inflatable heel pressure relief pad for preventing pressure injuries. Background Art

[0002] Pressure injury refers to the ulceration and necrosis of local tissues caused by long-term pressure on local tissues, which leads to blood circulation disorders and nutritional deficiencies. For patients who are bedridden for a long time, foot pressure injuries account for 1 / 5 to 1 / 4 of all pressure injury cases, and are the most common site for foot pressure injuries. Heel pressure injuries are difficult to heal, and the course of the disease is long, which will greatly increase the mortality rate and amputation rate of patients. In clinical practice, air mattresses are commonly used to prevent pressure sores on the feet, but they have little effect on preventing pressure injuries on the feet. Once a pressure injury occurs, it will not only increase the patient's pain and affect the patient's treatment, but also increase medical costs.

[0003] Prior art, such as announcement number CN215384925U, provides a decompression sleeve for preventing heel pressure sores; it includes an elastic sleeve and a soft rubber decompression pad; a viewing window is opened at the lower rear portion of the elastic sleeve; the soft rubber decompression pad is arranged in the viewing window, and its front peripheral edge is connected to the inner edge of the viewing window; the elastic sleeve has an L-shaped longitudinal section, an upper ring is opened at the upper rear portion, and a lower ring is opened at the front portion. Effect: The elastic sleeve has elasticity and tension. After the patient puts on socks, the present application can be directly and quickly put on the outside of the patient's socks, and the soft rubber decompression pad can wrap the patient's heel, or the present application can be directly put on the outside of the patient's ankle to wrap the patient's heel. The relevant operation is quick and convenient, and the present application can be applied when the patient wears slippers or shoes. After the elastic sleeve of the present application is arranged outside the patient's ankle, it is not easy to shift forward and backward and up and down, so that the wearing is stable and not easy to slip off, so that the patient's heel is wrapped and the decompression effect is good, which can better reduce the pressure injury of the patient's heel. Therefore, the present application is highly practical.

[0004] In actual use, due to the difference in the size of the patient's foot, it is necessary to select a pressure relief pad that is suitable for the patient when using it. However, in order to meet the needs of different patients, the pressure relief pad is usually one-size-fits-all. Although the pressure relief pad itself has a certain elasticity, it will reduce the comfort of use when it is not matched. In view of this, we propose an inflatable heel pressure relief pad to prevent pressure injuries. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to provide an inflatable decompression pad for preventing pressure injuries on the heel, which solves the problem that a one-size-fits-all decompression sleeve may reduce the comfort of use when it is not matched.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] The invention discloses an inflatable decompression pad for preventing pressure injuries of the heel, comprising a foot protector, wherein the foot protector is composed of square hollow latex blocks spliced ​​together, in a shape of wrapping the hind foot, and mutually connected ventilation holes are opened between the latex blocks, the sleeve wall of the foot protector is connected with an inflation port, and the inflation port is connected with an inflation bag through a hose, and the foot protector is inflated by pressing the inflation bag by hand, and since the foot protector is composed of a plurality of square hollow latex blocks spliced ​​together, the characteristics of the latex material itself enable the foot protector to gradually expand and wrap the heel when inflated to adapt to the shape of the human foot, and the latex layer becomes thinner after being expanded and stretched due to inflation, and its own tension decreases, so that the surface of the latex layer becomes softer to improve the comfort of the wearer, and since the foot protector is composed of a plurality of square hollow latex blocks, there is still a gap at the position where it fits the skin of the foot to ensure ventilation.

[0008] Preferably, a threaded head is connected to one side of the inflation port, and the threaded head is threadedly connected to the hose. By providing the threaded head threadedly connected to the hose, it is convenient to disassemble the inflation bag and the hose after inflation is completed.

[0009] Preferably, the inner wall of the threaded head is connected to a first supporting ring, one side of the first supporting ring is connected to a first spring, one end of the first spring is connected to a first sealing plug, and the position of the inner wall of the threaded head corresponding to the first sealing plug is connected to a first sealing ring, and the tension of the first spring is set to push the first sealing plug against the first sealing ring, so that when the inflation port is injected with air, the first sealing plug will be squeezed to compress the first spring, so that the first sealing plug is separated from the first sealing ring to facilitate air injection, and when exhausting, the first sealing plug will be pressed against the first sealing ring for sealing due to the action of the tension of the first spring.

[0010] Preferably, the contact surfaces of the first sealing ring and the first sealing plug are both conical surfaces and are adapted to each other, which can increase the contact area between the first sealing ring and the first sealing plug when they are in contact, thereby improving the sealing performance.

[0011] Preferably, one end of the first sealing plug is connected to a push rod, and the push rod extends to the outside of the threaded head. The outer wall of the threaded head is provided with a sealing ring. The sealing ring is provided on the outside of the threaded head to facilitate increasing the sealing performance. When the foot cover needs to be removed, the push rod is pressed to push the first sealing plug to separate from the first sealing ring for exhaust.

[0012] Preferably, the top and bottom of the inflatable bag are respectively connected to support pads, and a third spring is connected between the support pads. The flattened inflatable bag can be propped up by the support pads by setting the tension of the third spring.

[0013] Preferably, the outer wall of the inflatable bag is connected to an intake pipe, the inner wall of the intake pipe is connected to a second supporting ring, one side of the second supporting ring is connected to a second spring, one end of the second spring is connected to a second sealing plug, and a second sealing ring is connected to the position of the inner wall of the intake pipe corresponding to the second sealing plug. When the inflatable bag is inflated, new air will be sucked in from the intake pipe. When air is sucked in, the air will squeeze the second sealing plug and compress the second spring so that the second sealing plug is separated from the second sealing ring, allowing air to enter the inflatable bag. When the inflatable bag is squeezed, due to the tension of the second spring, the second sealing plug will press against the second supporting ring to form a seal.

[0014] By means of the above technical solution, the utility model provides an inflatable heel pressure relief pad for preventing pressure injuries, which has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. The utility model inflates the foot protector by pressing the inflatable bag by hand. Since the foot protector is composed of a plurality of square hollow latex blocks, the characteristics of the latex material itself allow the foot protector to gradually expand and wrap the heel when inflated to adapt to the shape of the human foot. The latex layer will become thinner after being expanded and stretched due to inflation, and its own tension will decrease, making the surface of the latex layer softer to improve the comfort of the wearer. Moreover, since the foot protector is composed of a plurality of square hollow latex blocks, there will still be gaps at the position where the foot skin is fitted to ensure ventilation.

[0016] 2. The utility model sets the tension of the first spring to push the first sealing plug against the first sealing ring, so that when the inflation port is injected with gas, the first sealing plug will be squeezed to compress the first spring, so that the first sealing plug is separated from the first sealing ring to facilitate gas injection. When exhausting, the first sealing plug will be pressed against the first sealing ring for sealing due to the action of the tension of the first spring to ensure the efficiency of gas injection.
