Detailed Implementation

[0032] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.

[0033] Figure 1 In one embodiment of the present invention, an automatically adaptive physical therapy staircase includes two symmetrically arranged step sections 1 on the left and right, with a horizontally arranged intermediate platform 3 between the two step sections 1. To ensure a good transition connection with the ground even after the staircase deforms, a top-sloping connecting platform 5 is provided in front of the lowest footrest 5 in each step section 1. Simultaneously, the highest footrest 5 is lower than the intermediate platform 3, and when deformed into a slope, the top edge of the footrest 5 connects to the edge of the intermediate platform 3. Additionally, railings 4 are provided on both sides of the upper part of the entire physical therapy staircase.

[0034] like Figure 2As shown, the used step part 1 includes a fixed chassis 6 and four stepping parts 5 distributed in a stepped manner, the physical therapy step can adjust the stride size, stride height, and can be transformed into a slope, first, the used fixed chassis 6 is used to longitudinally support all the stepping parts 5, and also provides a support frame for the stepping parts 5 to adjust the stride size; second, the used stepping part 5 itself has the function of adjusting the height to adjust the stride height, in addition, an inner support 8 is arranged below the stepping part 5, which is used to control the overturning of the stepping part 5, so as to realize the transformation between the step and the slope. Because the action ability of different patients is different, and the gait size required in different rehabilitation stages is different, the physical therapy step can adjust the state of the step part 1 through its own structure, so as to meet the different use requirements, in addition, it can also be transformed into a slope for the patient to walk on the slope.

[0035] Specifically, regarding the stride height adjustment function, as shown in the figure, Figure 3 As shown, the stepping part 5 of the embodiment includes a lower bracket body 51 and an upper stepping plate 52, wherein the top of the bracket body 51 is open, a lifting mechanism is installed on the inner bottom of the bracket body 51, and the stepping plate 52 is installed above the lifting mechanism; as shown in the figure, Figure 4 As shown, the used lifting mechanism includes two groups of scissor lifting mechanisms 24 arranged symmetrically in the length direction of the stepping part 5, and each group of scissor lifting mechanisms includes two scissor supports arranged symmetrically in the width direction of the stepping part 5, the scissor support includes a first support arm 241 and a second support arm 242 which are movably connected in X shape. In the same group of scissor lifting mechanisms 24, the lower ends of the two first support arms 241 are commonly hingedly connected to a fixed hinge seat 243 which is fixedly installed on the bracket body 51, and the upper ends are movably connected to a guide rail 246 arranged on the back of the stepping plate 52; the upper ends of the two second support arms 242 are commonly hingedly connected to another fixed hinge seat 243 which is fixedly installed on the stepping plate 52, and the lower ends are commonly hingedly connected to the same movable hinge seat 244, and the movable hinge seat 244 is movably arranged and a threaded sleeve 245 is arranged in the middle thereof. In addition, a double-headed threaded rod 247 is arranged on the inner bottom of the bracket body 51, both ends and the middle of the double-headed threaded rod 247 pass through the fixedly installed shaft seat 250, and a driving motor 248 is arranged at one end to control the rotation thereof. The two threaded segments 249 of the used double-headed threaded rod 247 have the same pitch and opposite rotation directions, as shown in the figure, Figure 5 As shown, when the driving motor 248 controls the rotation of the double-headed threaded rod 247 and the movable hinge seats 244 on both sides move towards each other, the stepping plate 52 moves upwards, in this embodiment, the displacement difference of the stepping plate 52 at the lower position is greater than that at the higher position during the adjustment of the stride height each time, and the height change of the stepping plate 52 from the lowest stepping part 5 to the highest stepping part 5 is an arithmetic progression.

[0036] Regarding the foot pedal 5, this embodiment also provides Figure 6 The structure shown has a ring of downward-extending panels 53 on the back of the foot pedal 52. These panels are located inside the bracket body 51 and together with the bracket body 51, they isolate the internal scissor lifting mechanism 24. This not only shields the internal structure but also provides a good working environment for the scissor lifting mechanism 24.

[0037] Regarding the stride size adjustment function, such as Figure 7 As shown, a central shaft 13 is coaxially arranged at the middle position of the two width surfaces of the support body 51, and is movably mounted on the inverted "П"-shaped foot pedal bracket 7 through the central shaft 13. In this structure, the support body 51 can rotate in place around the axis of the central shaft 13, but during the adjustment of the stride size, the flipping mechanism provided below the foot pedal 5 will limit the foot pedal 5, thereby ensuring that the foot pedal 5 will not deflect when stepped on. Furthermore, linear bearing assemblies 11 with horizontal axes are installed on both the left and right sides of the foot pedal bracket 7. The number of linear bearing assemblies 11 installed is appropriately increased according to the height of the foot pedal bracket 7 used. For example, four linear bearing assemblies 11 are installed on one side of the highest foot pedal bracket 7. In addition, a threaded sleeve 12 is installed in the middle of the crossbar at the bottom of each foot pedal bracket 7. Based on the aforementioned foot pedal bracket 7, four transverse rods extending along the width direction of the foot pedal 5 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the fixed base frame 6. The uppermost transverse rod is the shortest, and the lowermost transverse rod is the longest. The aforementioned linear bearing assembly 11 is mounted on the transverse rods of equal height, satisfying the horizontal movement requirements of all foot pedal brackets 7. In addition, a screw I14 driven by a motor assembly 9 is provided at the lower part of the fixed base frame 6. The screw I14 is parallel to the transverse rods and has four threaded segments with the same direction of rotation. Among these four threaded segments, the threaded segment with the smallest pitch has a pitch of 'a'. The pitch of all threaded segments increases sequentially in an arithmetic progression from the highest foot pedal 5 to the lowest foot pedal 5, with a tolerance of 'a'. Therefore, when the motor assembly 9 controls the screw I14 to rotate, the distance between any two adjacent foot pedals 5 changes equally, thus achieving the purpose of uniformly adjusting the stride size.

[0038] As to the function of transforming the steps into slopes, the aforementioned turnover mechanism comprises the adjusting arm assembly 19 and the inner support 8, which can not only assist the footrests 5 to be in a stable horizontal state, but also control all the footrests 5 to be turned over and form slopes. First, two adjusting arm assemblies 19 are symmetrically installed on the back of each bracket body 51, the main body of the adjusting arm assembly 19 is a connecting arm 20 which is inclined towards the footrest 5 with a lower position, the upper end of the connecting arm 20 is provided with a mounting seat 23 which is connected to the bracket body 51 through a bolt, the lower end is provided with a fixed shaft 21 in the transverse direction, and bearings 22 are installed on both ends of the fixed shaft 21 (i.e. the bearings 22 are located on both sides of the connecting arm 20). The inner support 8 is located below the footrest 5, the upper part of the inner support 6 is provided with four groups of guide rails 18 which are distributed in a stepped manner, and two electric telescopic rods 10 which control the movement of the inner support 8 are arranged on the fixed base 6. In order to prevent the inner support 8 from moving in the length direction of the footrest 5, the lower part of the fixed base 6 in this embodiment is provided with a lower support rod 15 which extends along the width direction of the footrest 5, and a limiting clamp seat 16 is arranged on the lower support rod 15, correspondingly, the inner support 8 is provided with a lower cross rod 17, as shown in Figure 12 , first, a seat plate 161 is fixedly arranged on the front surface of the lower support rod 15, which can lift the lower cross rod 17 and prevent the lower cross rod 17 from contacting the footrest support 7 (the transverse part of the footrest support 7 is located on the front surface of the lower support rod 15) arranged below, the limiting clamp seat 16 comprises two Z-shaped clamp plates 162 which are symmetrically arranged, the clamp plates 162 are bolted on the seat plate 161, which limit the lower cross rod 17 from the top and both sides, and ensure that the lower cross rod 17 can move smoothly.

[0039] As shown in Figure 13 , the front middle part of the guide rail 18 is provided with an open avoidance channel 181 with an open top, the width of which is slightly larger than the width of the connecting arm 20, which meets the smooth movement of the connecting arm 20 after being inserted, and guide rails are arranged on the two side walls of the avoidance channel 181, specifically, the guide rails are divided into horizontal guide rails I 182 and inclined guide rails II 183, and the connection between the two is smooth. As can be seen from Figure 12 , the lower part of the connecting arm 20 is inserted into the avoidance channel 181 from top to bottom, and the two bearings 22 at the lower end are located in the guide rails I 182 on both sides, at this time the footrest 5 is in a horizontal state as shown in Figure 14 , when the electric telescopic rod 10 controls the inner support 8 to move towards the middle platform 3, the bearings 22 move from the guide rails I 182 to the guide rails II 183, at this time the footrest 5 gradually turns over around the axis of the central shaft 13 as the axis of rotation, until the bearings 22 move to the highest part of the guide rails II 183, at this time the entire step part 1 presents a slope state as shown in Figure 16 , from Figure 15As can be seen, the upper notch 54 is arranged on the edge of the footboard 52 adjacent to the footboard 52 higher than the position of the footboard 52, the lower notch 55 is arranged on the edge of the footboard 52 adjacent to the footboard 52 lower than the position of the footboard 52, and the upper notch 54 and the lower notch 55 of the adjacent footboard 52 are arranged in the state shown in the figure. Figure 16 In the state shown in the figure, the upper notch 54 and the lower notch 55 of the adjacent footboard 52 are misaligned and superimposed together, which can not only minimize the gap of the slope, but also support the footboard 52 with each other.

[0040] It should be noted that the components for controlling the movement of each structure in this embodiment are all electric components, which are controlled by a controller in actual use. The controller can write programs a, b and c in the controller, the program a can control all drive motors 248 of at least one step part 1, the program b can control the motor assembly 9, and the program c can control the electric telescopic rod 10, so as to realize one-key control of automatic adjustment of the step height and the step size of the step part 1 to adapt to the training needs of different patients. The step part 1 can also be changed into a slope or a slope is changed into a step by one key, which is convenient for patients to carry out two different training. It should be noted that if the step part 1 is changed into a slope, each footboard part needs to be moved to the initial position in advance. Of course, the program a and the program b can be added in the program c to restore the original data in advance. At this time, when the operation of changing the step part 1 into a slope is executed by one key, the footboard part will be restored to the original state first, and then deformed.
