[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an intelligent brace, including a thigh brace 11, a calf brace 12, a rotating shaft 13, an angle sensor 14, a shell 15, and a main control board 16 connected to the angle sensor 14; the shell 15 is provided with a accommodating space (not shown), and the angle sensor 14, the main control board 16 and the rotating shaft 13 are all installed in the accommodating space; the rotating shaft 13 is rotatably connected to the shell 15; the thigh brace 11 is fixedly connected to the shell 15, and the calf brace 12 extends into the accommodating space and is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 13; it can be understood that the thigh brace 11 is bound and connected to the patient's thigh, and the calf brace 12 is bound and connected to the patient's calf; the opposite ends of the rotating shaft 13 are rotatably connected to the shell 15 through a first bearing and a second bearing, respectively.
[0033] When the calf brace 12 drives the rotating shaft 13 to rotate relative to the thigh brace 11, the angle sensor 14 measures the relative rotation angle between the thigh brace 11 and the calf brace 12 and sends it to the main control board 16, and the main control board 16 records the relative rotation angle as the knee joint bending angle. Specifically, when the thigh brace 11 and the calf brace 12 will move with the patient's thigh and calf, the thigh brace 11 and the calf brace 12 will drive the rotating shaft 13 to rotate in the housing 15, and the angle sensor 14 will detect the rotation angle of the rotating shaft 13, and the main control board 16 can calculate the rotation angle of the rotating shaft 13, and then the bending angle of the patient's knee can be detected.
[0034] In the present invention, a housing space is provided on the shell 15, and the angle sensor 14, the main control board 16 and the rotating shaft 13 are all installed in the housing space; the rotating shaft 13 is rotatably connected to the shell 15; the thigh brace 11 is fixedly connected to the shell 15, and the calf brace 12 extends into the housing space and is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 13; when the calf brace 12 drives the rotating shaft 13 to rotate relative to the thigh brace 11, the angle sensor 14 measures the relative rotation angle between the thigh brace 11 and the calf brace 12 and sends it to the main control board 16, and the main control board 16 records the relative rotation angle as the knee joint bending angle. In the present invention, the thigh brace 11 and the calf brace 12 are respectively bound to the patient's thigh and calf, and when the patient's thigh and calf are bent, the thigh brace 11 and the calf brace 12 will drive the rotating shaft 13 to rotate in the shell 15, and the angle sensor 14 can detect the patient's knee bending angle (that is, the bending angle between the patient's thigh and calf) through the angle of rotation of the rotating shaft 13. The knee bending angle detected by the detection sensor device can be displayed to the patient through the display screen 24, or sent to an APP on the terminal, so that the patient can view his own knee bending angle through the display screen 24 and the APP, thereby improving the convenience and applicability of the smart brace; in addition, the main control board 16 can also store the detected patient's knee bending angle, so that the patient can count the patient's daily knee bending angle in the future, which is convenient for the patient's knee motor function to recover.
[0035] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the smart brace also includes an inertial detector 17 installed on the main control board 16 and used to detect the hip joint angle (and the inertial detector 17 is electrically connected to the main control board 16), and the hip joint angle refers to the angle between the thigh brace 11 and the plumb line. It can be understood that the inertial detector 17 is fixedly installed in the shell 15. When the patient lifts his leg, the inertial detector 17 will detect the hip joint angle (that is, the thigh angle, that is, the angle between the thigh and the plumb line when it is lifted), and transmit it to the display screen 24 or APP and other terminals through the main control board 16 for the patient to view;
[0036] Furthermore, the angle sensor 14 can detect the patient's knee joint bending angle, the inertial detector 17 can detect the patient's hip joint angle, and the main control board 16 can obtain the patient's gait model through the knee joint bending angle and the hip joint angle; thereby helping the patient to check the daily recovery of his injured knee.
[0037] In one embodiment, if Figure 1As shown, the intelligent brace also includes a plug-in 18 installed in the accommodating space and at least one electrode sheet connected to the plug-in 18, and one end of each plug-in 18 away from the electrode sheet is connected to the main control board 16. It can be understood that the electrode sheet can be set to multiple according to actual needs, such as 5, 8, 10, etc. Further, the electrode sheet is a medium-low frequency electrode sheet, and the electrode sheet is attached to the quadriceps of the patient. The main control board 16 can control the electrode sheet to perform medium-low frequency physiotherapy on the quadriceps of the patient. When the control board is connected to a terminal such as APP, the physiotherapy mode of the electrode sheet can be switched through the terminal such as APP, and the current intensity of the electrode sheet can be adjusted; thus, the design of the electrode sheet further improves the rehabilitation effect of the intelligent brace on the patient.
[0038] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the housing 15 includes an upper shell 151, a lower shell 152 and a fixing seat 154 installed in the containing space; the fixing seat 154 is recessed to form a first containing groove 1541 for installing the angle sensor 14; the fixing seat 154 is provided with a first through hole 1542 for the rotating shaft 13 to pass through; the upper shell 151 is installed on the upper end surface of the fixing seat 154, and the lower shell 152 is installed on the lower end surface of the fixing seat 154; one end of the rotating shaft 13 is rotatably connected to the lower shell 152, and the other end of the rotating shaft 13 passes through the calf brace 12 and the first through hole 1542 in sequence, and then is rotatably connected to the upper shell 151. It can be understood that the calf brace 12 is provided with a through hole, and the rotating shaft 13 passes through the through hole and is interference-connected with the through hole, so as to achieve the technical effect that the thigh brace 11 and the calf brace 12 drive the rotating shaft 13 to rotate. In the present invention, the intelligent brace has a compact structure, is easy to install, and has a low manufacturing cost.
[0039] In one embodiment, if Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the intelligent brace also includes a code disc 19 provided with a second through hole 191, and a buffer 21 provided with a third through hole 211; the code disc 19 is installed (installed by screw connection or the like) between the fixing seat 154 and the lower shell 152 housing 15, and is located in the accommodating space; a second accommodating groove 20 for installing (installed by screw connection or the like) the buffer 21 is formed between the fixing seat 154 and the code disc 19; the end of the rotating shaft 13 away from the lower shell 152 passes through the calf brace 12, the first through hole 1542, the second through hole 191 and the third through hole 211 in sequence, and then rotates to connect to the upper shell 151. It can be understood that when the buffer 21 is installed in the second accommodating groove 20, the first through hole 1542, the second through hole 191 and the third through hole 211 are all aligned. Furthermore, the buffer 21 can be a torsion spring buffer 21, a damping buffer 21, etc.; preferably, the third through hole 211 is a square through hole. After the rotating shaft 13 penetrates the square through hole, the rotation of the rotating shaft 13 drives the buffer body (torsion spring, damping, etc.) in the buffer to rotate through the square through hole. Due to the buffering resistance of the buffer 21, secondary injuries caused by excessive bending of the patient's thigh or calf can be avoided. In the present invention, the design of the buffer 21 further improves the rehabilitation effect of the intelligent brace on patients.
[0040] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the code disc 19 is provided with an inner tooth 192, and the intelligent brace also includes a first slide 22 and a second slide 23 installed in the lower shell 152, the first slide 22 is provided with a fourth through hole 221, a first stop 223 and a first engaging tooth 222 engaged with the inner tooth 192, the second slide 23 is provided with a fifth through hole 231, a second stop 233 and a second engaging tooth (not shown) engaged with the inner tooth 192, and a rotation space for limiting the rotation of the calf brace 12 is formed between the first stop 223 and the second stop 233; the end of the rotating shaft 13 away from the lower shell 152 passes through the fourth through hole 221, the fifth through hole 231, the second through hole 191, the third through hole 211 and the first through hole 1542 in sequence, and is rotatably connected to the upper shell 151. It can be understood that the first engaging teeth 222 of the first slide 22 and the second engaging teeth of the second slide 23 can be selectively engaged with the inner teeth 192, and the angle between the first slide 22 and the second slide 23 can be limited, so as to limit the angle of rotation of the calf around the rotating shaft 13 (that is, the calf brace 12 can only rotate in the rotation space between the first stop 223 and the second stop 233). In the present invention, the design of the first slide 22 and the second slide can adjust the rotation angle between the calf brace 12 and the thigh brace 11, which can be used to adjust the daily knee bending angle of the patient, thereby avoiding the risk of secondary injury caused by excessive knee bending angle of the patient.

Preferably, the angle sensor 14 is a magnetic encoder, and the angle generator is a magnet; for example, the angle sensor 14 is a code disk, and the angle generator is a photoelectric sensor, etc.; it can be understood that when the magnet rotates with the rotating shaft 13, the angle sensor 14 can detect the rotation angle of the rotating shaft 13 through the magnet, and then detect the patient's knee joint bending angle. In the present invention, the intelligent brace has a simple structure and low manufacturing cost.
[0045] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the shell 15 also includes a side mounting seat 153; the rotating shaft 13, the angle sensor 14 and the main control board 16 are all installed in the accommodating space; it can be understood that the upper shell 151 and the lower shell 152 are respectively installed at the upper and lower ends of the side mounting seat 153.
[0046] The intelligent brace also includes a display screen 24 and a button 25. The side mounting seat 153 is provided with a first mounting slot for mounting the display screen 24 and a second mounting slot for mounting the button 25.

In the present invention, the main control board 16 feeds back the detected knee joint bending angle, hip joint angle and gait information to the display screen 24, and displays them through the display screen 24, so that it is convenient for patients to view the recovery information of the knee joint.
[0047] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the smart brace also includes a battery 26 installed in the housing 15, and a charging interface (not shown) installed on the main control board 16; the battery 26 is electrically connected to the angle sensor 14 and the main control board 16, and the charging interface is connected to the battery 26 through the main control board 16. Preferably, the charging interface is TYPE-C, and the TYPE-C charging interface directly charges the battery 26 through the mobile phone charging cable, thereby improving the applicability of the smart brace. It can be understood that the battery 26 is also electrically connected to the inertia detector 17, the display screen 24, etc., and the external charger can charge the battery 26 through the charging interface, thereby improving the convenience and applicability of the smart brace.
