Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical device technology, and specifically relates to an ankle pump exercise assistive device. Background Technology

[0002] For patients who are completely bedridden and unable to get out of bed, ankle joint exercises can act like a pump, promoting blood circulation and lymphatic return in the lower limbs and preventing deep vein thrombosis. Ankle flexion involves lying or sitting still in bed with the thigh relaxed, and then slowly applying force, within the limits of no pain or only slight pain, flexing the toes as far as possible (pointing the toes upwards, so that the toes are pointing towards oneself), ensuring that the maximum position is held for at least 10 seconds, that is, flexing the toes upwards for 10 seconds and flexing the toes downwards for 10 seconds. Do 15 sets in the morning and 15 sets in the afternoon. All toe movements are manually measured and self-monitored.

[0003] Existing assistive devices lack counting functions, making it impossible for medical staff to directly determine whether patients are exercising diligently. Some patients may be lazy and not exercise at all, leading to a decline in treatment effectiveness. There is a lack of medical instruments that can determine whether patients are exercising properly.

[0019] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0020] like Figures 1-3 As shown, this ankle pump exercise assistive device includes a support base 1 and a wearable device 2 mounted on the support base 1. The support base 1 is used to support the bed, and the wearable device 2 is used to be worn on the patient's leg. The wearable device 2 is provided with a movable device 3, which is used to movably connect the wearable device 2 to the support base 1. The wearable device 2 is provided with a counting device 4, which includes a pressure sensor 5 and a squeezing block 6. The squeezing block 6 is located at the bottom of the wearable device 2 and is used to squeeze the pressure sensor 5.

[0021] To elaborate further, the support base 1 includes a support plate 7, two L-shaped plates 8, two screws 9, and an abutment block 10. The two L-shaped plates 8 are located at both ends of one side of the support plate 7. The L-shaped plates 8 are provided with threaded holes 11. The screws 9 pass through the threaded connection to the abutment block 10. The support plate 7 is used to be placed on the side of the bed endboard close to the patient. By rotating the screws 9, the abutment block 10 abuts against the other side of the bed endboard, thereby achieving the function of fixing the support plate 7. This design allows the present application to be adapted to different hospital beds and has a wide range of applications.

[0022] To elaborate further, the activity device 3 includes a telescopic device 12 and a rotating device 13. The telescopic device 12 is used to connect the support plate 7 and the rotating device 13. The rotating device 13 is used to connect the wearable device 2. The rotating device 13 is rotatably connected to the telescopic device 12. The telescopic device 12 is used to adjust the distance between the wearable device 2 and the patient so that it can fit patients of different heights. The rotating device 13 is used to restrict the patient so that they can only rotate forward and backward and cannot move left and right.

[0023] To elaborate further, the telescopic device 12 includes two first telescopic rods 14 and a mounting block 15. The first telescopic rods 14 are connected to the support plate 7, and the mounting block 15 is used for mounting the rotating device 13. The first telescopic rods 14 can be electric telescopic rods in the prior art or common mechanical telescopic rods.

[0024] To elaborate further, the rotating device 13 includes a rotating shaft 16 and a torsion spring. The mounting block 15 is provided with mounting holes 17 for mounting the rotating shaft 16 and the torsion spring. The rotating shaft 16 is provided with an extension piece 18 for mounting the wearable device 2. The torsion spring is located in the mounting hole 17, which is not shown in the attached drawings of the instruction manual. This setting plays a resetting role, so that the patient has a certain resistance during exercise, ensuring the exercise effect.

[0025] To elaborate further, the wearable device 2 includes a connecting base 19, a heel pad 20, and multiple straps 21. A compression block 6 is disposed on the connecting base 19, which is also provided with a hook 22. The extension piece 18 is provided with a hanging hole 23. The connecting base 19 is detachably connected to the hanging hole 23 via the hook 22. This arrangement is for the convenience of quickly and easily installing the wearable device 2 on the extension piece 18. When the patient does not need to exercise, they can simply remove it without having to take off the wearable device 2, which is convenient for subsequent exercise.

[0026] To elaborate further, a second telescopic rod 24 is provided on the support plate 7. A section of the second telescopic rod 24 away from the support plate 7 is rotatably connected to an installation platform 25. The installation platform 25 is used for mounting the pressure sensor 5. The second telescopic rod 24 can be an electric telescopic rod as in the prior art, or it can be a common mechanical telescopic rod. The connection between the installation platform 25 and the second telescopic rod 24 is a friction-type rotating connection, which is adjusted by the screw 9. It can be rotated after being loosened, and it is difficult to rotate after being tightened.

[0027] To elaborate further, the support plate 7 is also equipped with an alarm device 26, which includes an LED light 27 and a sound 28. Both the LED light 27 and the sound 28 are electrically connected to the processor. The counting device 4 is set to count a certain number of times within a certain period of time, such as 4 times within 1 minute. When the count is insufficient, the LED light 27 lights up and provides a verbal reminder. This structure uses existing technology.

[0028] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative examples illustrating the spirit of this utility model. Those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to replace them, without departing from the spirit of this utility model or exceeding the scope defined by the appended claims.
