Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical auxiliary treatment equipment, in particular to a massageable ankle joint fixator. Background Art

[0002] Ankle fixator is a medical device used to fix the ankle joint. It usually consists of one or two brackets and a bandage. It can be used to fix and treat ankle sprains, ligament injuries, fractures and other diseases. It can also be used for postoperative rehabilitation training. Ankle fixator can stabilize the ankle joint, reduce pain and swelling, and promote wound healing and recovery.

[0003] The existing patent (application number 202221117511.8) provides a medical ankle fixator, which can help dissipate heat and improve wearing comfort by installing a cooling fan, and install a leg support device to help patients raise their legs to facilitate relaxation. However, the utility model still has at least the following shortcomings when used:

[0004] 1. The existing ankle fixator usually needs to fix the calf together when fixing the ankle. Using the strap to fix the calf for a long time will cause compression of the calf, which can easily lead to poor blood circulation and discomfort to the patient. Therefore, a fixation brace with a massage structure is needed.

[0005] 2. The patent adopts an L-shaped ankle brace to completely surround the foot and calf. During wearing, the patient's feet and calf will feel stuffy and hot, which is easy to sweat and breed bacteria. It is not suitable for long-term wear. The patent solves this problem by installing a cooling fan, but the places that the fan cannot blow will still feel stuffy. The solution is unreasonable, so a fixed brace with good ventilation is needed.

[0006] 3. The ankle fixation brace in the utility model and the prior art cannot provide good support when walking or exerting force on the foot. When exerting force on the foot, it will cause pressure on the foot and cause ankle pain. At the same time, most of the existing L-shaped braces have a fixed angle and cannot be adjusted. Therefore, a fixed brace with adjustable angle is needed. Utility Model Content
