Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of medical devices, and particularly to a spinal scoliosis orthosis device. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, the number of orthopedic objects with spinal scoliosis in China has been increasing day by day, and it has now been listed as one of the five common diseases among teenagers. Spinal scoliosis not only brings pain and harm to the orthopedic object physically, but also affects the mental health of the orthopedic object due to the change of body posture. It poses great harm to the physical and mental health of the orthopedic object, especially teenagers, and cannot be ignored.
[0003] In the prior art, orthopedic devices are usually worn by orthopedic objects to treat their spinal scoliosis. However, the current orthopedic devices are difficult to adjust and cannot be uniformly applied to orthopedic objects with different scoliosis states and body parameters. At the same time, the existing orthopedic devices usually continuously apply pressure to the same part, which will cause discomfort reactions such as pain and pressure sores, thereby reducing the compliance of the orthopedic object. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This application provides a spinal scoliosis orthosis device to solve the technical problems that the correction force of the existing orthosis device cannot be adjusted and it cannot adapt to different orthopedic objects.
[0005] The present invention provides a spinal scoliosis orthosis device, including a plurality of substrates detachably connected in sequence. The substrate includes a functional substrate; a correction component, which is in a non-closed curved shape and has two ends. The two ends are arranged on the functional substrate to form a closed shape with the corresponding functional substrate. And at least one of the ends is movably connected to the functional substrate; an adjustment component configured to drive at least one end of the correction component to realize the change of the closed area surface formed by the correction component and the corresponding functional substrate, so as to adjust the correction force of the correction component.
[0006] The plurality of detachably connected substrates can be individually combined and adjusted according to the spinal scoliosis conditions of different orthopedic objects, which ensures that the correction device can accurately fit the spinal morphology of each orthopedic object. Furthermore, the correction force can be applied to the human body through the functional substrate at the optimal position. The adjustment component can drive the change of the closed area surface formed by the correction component and the functional substrate. Since the trunk part of the orthopedic object is within the closed area surface, the correction force borne by the orthopedic object at this part can be changed by adjusting the change of the closed area surface.
[0007] Through the above design, the scoliosis orthosis provided by the present invention can dynamically adjust the magnitude of the corrective force according to the treatment progress or the feedback of the object to be orthopedized during application, ensuring the continuity and effectiveness of the treatment. Since the device can be adjusted individually according to the actual situation of the object to be orthopedized, that is, the orthopedic force is appropriately reduced according to the treatment progress, the discomfort caused by long-term wearing is reduced, and the acceptance and compliance of the object to be orthopedized are significantly improved, which helps the object to be orthopedized to better cooperate with the treatment and accelerate the rehabilitation process.
[0008] In a further aspect of the present invention, the scoliosis orthosis should further include a first elastic connecting member. A plurality of first elastic connecting members are detachably arranged between every two adjacent substrates, so that when the adjacent substrates are subjected to external force traction, multi-directional movement can be realized.
[0009] Through the design of the first elastic connecting member of the scoliosis orthosis, relative movement can occur between adjacent substrates, thereby increasing the flexibility and adaptability of the entire device. By connecting adjacent substrates with the first elastic connecting member, each substrate can have multiple degrees of freedom relative to another substrate, facilitating the object to be orthopedized to change its own posture when wearing.
[0010] In a further aspect of the present invention, the scoliosis orthosis further includes a main substrate and a tail substrate, which are respectively located at the head and the tail; the functional substrates are arranged between the main substrate and the tail substrate.
[0011] In a further embodiment, a fixing component is added for better fixation. The main substrate, the tail substrate, and the transition substrate are all provided with fixing components to relatively fix the scoliosis orthosis and the object to be orthopedized during application.
[0012] In this solution, through the combination of the main substrate, the tail substrate, and the functional substrates, the overall structure of the device is greatly enhanced. This design enables the device to maintain stability when applying the corrective force, avoiding poor corrective effects or discomfort caused to the object to be orthopedized due to unstable structure. The introduction of the fixing component further enhances the safety and stability of the device. These components can be arranged on the main substrate, the functional substrate, or the tail substrate, and the device can be closely attached to the spine of the object to be orthopedized through appropriate fixing methods (such as straps, pasting, etc.). This design not only ensures the stability of the device during the correction process but also helps to reduce the inconvenience or harm that may be caused to the object to be orthopedized due to device displacement or detachment.
[0013] In a further aspect of the present invention, the scoliosis orthosis further includes a transition substrate. The transition substrate can be arranged between the main substrate and the functional substrate; when there are multiple functional substrates, it can also be arranged between two functional substrates; or it can be arranged between the tail substrate and the functional substrate according to requirements.
[0014] In this solution, the transition substrate serves as a bridge connecting the main substrate, the functional substrate, and the tail substrate, allowing the relative position of the functional substrate to be changed by simply disassembling the transition substrate before application, enabling doctors or therapists to easily adjust the application position of the correction force to better adapt to the scoliosis conditions and treatment needs of different orthopedic objects. Since the transition substrate is detachably connected to other substrates, doctors or therapists can develop personalized correction plans according to the specific conditions of the orthopedic object.
[0015] In a further solution of the present invention, the adjustment assembly includes a driving wire and an adjustment hub. The driving wire passes through the correction assembly and the adjustment hub. Two ends of the correction assembly are slidably connected to the chutes provided on both sides of the functional substrate. The adjustment hub is rotatably provided on the functional substrate and is configured to drive all or part of the correction assembly to slide along the chute when the adjustment hub rotates through the driving wire.
[0016] In this solution, by rotating the adjustment hub, doctors or therapists can precisely control the tension of the driving wire, thereby driving the correction assembly to slide in the chute, making the application and adjustment of the correction force more accurate, and being able to perform fine-tuning according to the specific conditions and treatment needs of the orthopedic object to ensure the maximization of the correction effect. Due to the flexibility of the adjustment assembly, doctors or therapists can adjust the position of the correction assembly according to the spinal morphology and scoliosis degree of the orthopedic object to achieve a personalized treatment plan.
[0017] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the chutes are provided on the functional substrate extending in the same direction; the driving wire is connected to one or all ends of the correction assembly and wound around the adjustment hub to drive the change of the closed area formed by the correction assembly and the corresponding functional substrate when the adjustment hub rotates.
[0018] In this solution, due to the chutes extending in the same direction and the driving wire being wound around the adjustment hub, when the adjustment hub rotates, the change of the closed area formed by the correction assembly and the corresponding functional substrate can be adjusted through the driving wire. The extension of the chutes provides a large moving range for the correction assembly, which means that doctors or therapists can flexibly adjust the position of the correction assembly by rotating the adjustment hub according to the specific conditions and needs of the orthopedic object. At the same time, the chutes can also play a limiting role to limit the adjusted correction assembly to move only on a preset path, that is, the application direction of the correction force.
[0019] In a further embodiment of the present invention, three functional substrates are provided, and adjustment assemblies are provided on the functional substrates at both ends; and the corresponding adjustment hubs are respectively connected to one end of a second elastic connecting member, and the other ends of the second elastic connecting members are all provided on the correction assembly on the middle functional substrate.
[0020] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the correction assembly includes: rib plates disposed opposite to each other, having two said ends; a third elastic connecting member for connecting the ends of the rib plates away from the end connected to the sliding groove; and a data acquisition module disposed on the corresponding rib plate to acquire test data at the position where the correction force is applied and collected by a terminal.
[0021] In this solution, the test data generally includes temperature data and pressure data. The rib plates are slidably connected in the sliding groove and can be driven to slide by the adjustment assembly, thereby adjusting the correction force. While providing a supporting effect, the rib plates can also apply a correction force. The data acquisition module facilitates the adjustment of the correction force by acquiring relevant temperature data and pressure data. The third elastic connecting member elastically connects the two rib plates, and then encloses a closed area surface with the rib plates and the functional substrate to apply an orthopedic force. In specific applications, the second elastic connecting member and the third elastic connecting member generally adopt elastic bands.
[0022] In a further embodiment of the present invention, an installation groove is provided on each side of the functional substrate, and the adjustment hub is rotatably disposed in any one of the installation grooves on any one of the functional substrates; the driving wire is wound around the adjustment hub and connected to the rib plate on the corresponding side to adjust the correction force applied by the rib plate on the corresponding side when the adjustment hub rotates.
[0023] In this solution, by providing installation grooves on both sides of the functional substrate and allowing the adjustment hub to be rotatably disposed in any one of the installation grooves, the object to be orthopedically treated or the doctor can, according to actual needs, select to install the adjustment hub at a suitable position, and then can apply a correction force to the object to be orthopedically treated on the appropriate side.
[0024] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the scoliosis orthopedic device further includes: a control module disposed on the main substrate; a sensing interface disposed on the main substrate and signal-connected to the control module; and a sensing wire signal-connected to the data acquisition module and the sensing interface, so that the control module receives and analyzes the test data acquired by the data acquisition module.
[0025] In summary, the scoliosis orthopedic device provided by this application has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0026] Multiple detachably connected substrates can be combined and adjusted individually according to the scoliosis conditions of different objects to be orthopedically treated, which ensures that the correction device can precisely fit the spinal morphology of each object to be orthopedically treated. Furthermore, the correction force can be applied to the human body through the functional substrate at the best position. The adjustment assembly can drive the change of the closed area surface formed by the correction assembly and the functional substrate. Since the torso part of the object to be orthopedically treated is within the closed area surface, the correction force borne by the object to be orthopedically treated at this part can be changed by adjusting the change of the closed area surface.
[0027] Through the above design, the scoliosis orthosis provided by the present invention can dynamically adjust the magnitude of the correction force according to the treatment progress or the feedback of the object to be orthopedically treated during application, ensuring the continuity and effectiveness of the treatment. Since the device can be adjusted individually according to the actual situation of the object to be orthopedically treated, that is, the orthopedic force is appropriately reduced according to the treatment progress, the discomfort caused by long-term wearing is reduced, and the acceptance and compliance of the object to be orthopedically treated are significantly improved, which helps the object to be orthopedically treated to better cooperate with the treatment and accelerate the rehabilitation process.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, the present invention provides a spinal scoliosis correction device, including a plurality of substrates 100, which are detachably connected in sequence. The substrate 100 includes a functional substrate 110; a correction component 300, which is in a non-closed curved shape and has two ends. The two ends are arranged on the functional substrate 110 to form a closed shape with the corresponding functional substrate 110; and at least one of the ends is movably connected to the functional substrate 110; an adjustment component 200, which is configured to drive at least one end of the correction component 300 to realize the change of the closed area surface formed by the correction component 300 and its corresponding functional substrate 110, so as to adjust the correction force of the correction component 300.
[0044] The plurality of substrates 100 that are detachably connected can be individually combined and adjusted according to the spinal scoliosis conditions of different orthopedic objects, which ensures that the correction device can accurately fit the spinal morphology of each orthopedic object. Furthermore, the correction force can be applied to the human body through the functional substrate 110 at the optimal position. The adjustment component 200 can drive the change of the closed area surface formed by the correction component 300 and the functional substrate 110. Since the trunk part of the orthopedic object is within the closed area surface, the correction force borne by the orthopedic object at this part can be changed by adjusting the change of the closed area surface.
[0045] Through the above design, the spinal scoliosis correction device provided by the present invention can dynamically adjust the magnitude of the correction force according to the treatment progress or the feedback of the orthopedic object during application, ensuring the continuity and effectiveness of the treatment. Since the device can be individually adjusted according to the actual situation of the orthopedic object, that is, appropriately reduce the orthopedic force according to the treatment progress, the discomfort caused by long-term wearing is reduced, and the acceptance and compliance of the orthopedic object are significantly improved, which helps the orthopedic object better cooperate with the treatment and accelerate the rehabilitation process.
[0046] The sequential detachable connection of the plurality of substrates 100 is to facilitate the adjustment of the position of the functional substrate 110. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the functional substrate 110 to change the position where the correction force is applied, it is necessary to add a transition substrate 120 for use. The transition substrate 120 is a type of substrate 100 and can be used as a distance compensation element. By using the transition substrate 120 at the appropriate position, the relative position of the transition substrate 120 can be adjusted, and thus the position where the correction force is applied can be changed to achieve the best correction effect.
[0047] In specific applications, the plurality of sequentially connected substrates 100 are arranged to fit the human back, and the two ends of the correction component 300 are arranged on both sides of the human trunk. The correction component 300 realizes the lateral movement of the ends through the adjustment component 200, and thus can change the magnitude of the correction force.
[0048] Since the entire scoliosis orthosis is attached to the human back, merely detachable multiple substrates 100 will make it difficult to achieve adjustments of human postures such as back twisting and bending. Therefore, in a further embodiment, the scoliosis orthosis should further include a first elastic connecting member 400. A plurality of first elastic connecting members 400 are detachably arranged between every two adjacent substrates 100, so that when the adjacent substrates 100 are subjected to external force traction, multi-directional movement can be achieved. Through the design of the first elastic connecting member 400, relative movement between adjacent substrates 100 can be realized, thereby increasing the flexibility and adaptability of the entire device. By connecting adjacent substrates 100 through the first elastic connecting member 400, each substrate 100 can have multiple degrees of freedom relative to another substrate 100, which is convenient for the object to be orthopedically treated to change its own posture when wearing.
[0049] Generally speaking, the number of each group of the first elastic connecting members 400 needs to be specifically set according to requirements. In Figure 1 the specific embodiment provided, four first elastic connecting members 400 are provided in each group. The first elastic connecting member 400 is used as a bionic intervertebral disc structure, which is convenient for multiple substrates 100 to follow the activities of the human body. In a specific application, the first elastic connecting member 400 is a spring. In order to achieve detachable connection, the entire spring will be inserted into two adjacent substrates 100, and then the spring is fixed by bolts. When disassembling and assembling, only the bolts need to be turned.
[0050] The scoliosis orthosis simply adopting the functional substrate 110, the transition substrate 120, the correction assembly 300 and the adjustment assembly 200 can realize functions such as adjustment of the correction force. In order to enable the object to be orthopedically treated to wear the scoliosis orthosis for a long time, please further combine Figure 3 , in a further embodiment of the present invention, a structure for cooperating with wearing is further added, that is, the main substrate 130 and the tail substrate 140. The main substrate 130 and the tail substrate 140 are a kind of substrates 100 and are respectively located at the head and the tail of the scoliosis orthosis; the functional substrate 110 is arranged between the main substrate 130 and the tail substrate 140.
[0051] In a further embodiment, in order to better fix, a fixing assembly 500 is further added. The main substrate 130, the tail substrate 140 and the transition substrate 120 are all provided with the fixing assembly 500, so that when in use, the scoliosis orthosis and the object to be orthopedically treated are relatively fixed.
[0052] In this embodiment, through the combination of the main substrate 130, the tail substrate 140, and the functional substrate 110, the overall structure of the device is greatly enhanced. This design enables the device to remain stable when applying the corrective force, avoiding poor corrective effects or discomfort to the orthopedic object caused by unstable structure. The introduction of the fixing component 500 further enhances the safety and stability of the device. These components can be arranged on the main substrate 130, the functional substrate 110, or the tail substrate 140, and the device is tightly attached to the spine of the orthopedic object through appropriate fixing methods (such as straps, pasting, etc.). This design not only ensures the stability of the device during the correction process but also helps to reduce the inconvenience or harm that may be caused to the orthopedic object due to the displacement or detachment of the device.
[0053] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the scoliosis orthosis device further includes a transition substrate 120. The transition substrate 120 can be arranged between the main substrate 130 and the functional substrate 110; when there are multiple functional substrates 110, it can also be arranged between two functional substrates 110; or it can be arranged between the tail substrate 140 and the functional substrate 110 according to requirements.
[0054] In this embodiment, the transition substrate 120 serves as a bridge connecting the main substrate 130, the functional substrate 110, and the tail substrate 140, allowing the relative position of the functional substrate 110 to be changed by simply disassembling the transition substrate 120 before application, enabling doctors or therapists to easily adjust the application position of the corrective force to better adapt to the scoliosis conditions and treatment needs of different orthopedic objects. Since the transition substrate 120 is detachably connected to other substrates 100, doctors or therapists can develop personalized correction plans according to the specific conditions of the orthopedic object.
[0055] Please refer to Figure 4 , in a further embodiment of the present invention, the adjustment component 200 includes a drive wire 210 and an adjustment hub 220. The drive wire 210 passes through the correction component 300 and the adjustment hub 220; both ends of the correction component 300 are slidably connected to the chutes 110A arranged on both sides of the functional substrate 110, and the adjustment hub 220 is rotatably arranged on the functional substrate 110 and is configured to drive all or part of the correction component 300 to slide along the chute 110A through the drive wire 210 when the adjustment hub 220 rotates.
[0056] In this embodiment, by adjusting the rotation of the adjustment hub 220, a doctor or therapist can precisely control the tension of the drive line 210, thereby driving the correction assembly 300 to slide within the chute 110A, and further making the application and adjustment of the correction force more precise. It can be finely adjusted according to the specific conditions and treatment needs of the orthopedic object to ensure the maximization of the correction effect. Due to the flexibility of the adjustment assembly 200, a doctor or therapist can, according to the spinal morphology and scoliosis degree of the orthopedic object, adjust the position of the correction assembly 300 to implement a personalized treatment plan.
[0057] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the chutes 110A extend in the same direction; the drive line 210 is connected to one or all ends of the correction assembly 300 and wound around the adjustment hub 220 to drive a change in the closed area surface formed by the correction assembly 300 and its corresponding functional substrate 110 when the adjustment hub 220 rotates.
[0058] Furthermore, the adjustment hub 220 has a self-locking structure, that is, when there is no external driving force, the adjustment hub 220 will maintain its current state to keep the drive line 210 taut, thereby keeping the correction force constant.
[0059] In this embodiment, due to the same-direction extension of the chutes 110A and the drive line 210 being wound around the adjustment hub 220, when the adjustment hub 220 rotates, the drive line 210 can drive a change in the closed area surface formed by the correction assembly 300 and its corresponding functional substrate 110. The extension of the chutes 110A provides a large movement range for the correction assembly 300, which means that a doctor can flexibly adjust the position of the correction assembly 300 by rotating the adjustment hub 220 according to the specific conditions and needs of the orthopedic object. At the same time, the chutes 110A can also play a limiting role to limit the adjusted correction assembly 300 to move only on a preset path, that is, the application direction of the correction force.
[0060] It should be noted that currently, scoliosis generally includes types such as C-shaped scoliosis and S-shaped scoliosis. When the patient has C-shaped scoliosis, at least three functional substrates 110 are provided; when the patient has S-shaped scoliosis, at least four functional substrates 110 are provided; each functional substrate 110 corresponds to a correction force application point. In the subsequent embodiments, the treatment of C-shaped scoliosis will be described.
[0061] In a further embodiment of the present invention, three functional substrates 110 are provided, and adjustment assemblies 200 are provided on both the functional substrates 110 at both ends; and the corresponding adjustment hubs 220 are respectively connected to one end of a second elastic connecting member 230, and the other ends of the second elastic connecting members 230 are both provided on the correction assembly 300 on the functional substrate 110 in the middle.
[0062] In this embodiment, when three functional substrates 110 are provided, if the correction force needs to be adjusted, rotating the uppermost adjustment hub 220 can drive the correction component 300 on the uppermost functional substrate 110 to move, thereby changing the closing area surface at this position to adjust the correction force at this position. Since the uppermost adjustment hub 220 rotates, at this time, the adjustment hub 220 will also wind or release part of the second elastic connecting member 230, causing the tension of the second elastic connecting member 230 to change. Since the second elastic connecting member 230 is connected to the correction component 300 on the middle functional substrate 110, it will drive the correction component 300 to move, thereby adjusting the closing area surface in the middle to adjust the correction force in the middle. The adjustment hub 220 of the lowermost functional substrate 110 is adjusted in the same way and will not be elaborated here. When specifically setting, it should be ensured that when the adjustment hub 220 adjusts the corresponding correction component 300 to increase the correction force, the second elastic connecting member 230 drives the correction component 300 in the middle to increase the correction force, that is, the adjustment hub 220 can drive both to increase the correction force synchronously.
[0063] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the correction component 300 includes: rib plates 310 arranged oppositely, having two ends; a third elastic connecting member 330 for connecting the ends of the rib plates 310 away from the end connected to the chute 110A; and a data acquisition module 320 arranged on the corresponding rib plates 310 to acquire test data at the position where the correction force is applied and collected by the terminal.
[0064] In this embodiment, the test data generally includes temperature data and pressure data. The rib plates 310 are slidably connected in the chute 110A and can drive the rib plates 310 to slide through the adjustment component 200, thereby adjusting the correction force. While providing a supporting effect, the rib plates 310 can also apply a correction force. The data acquisition module 320 facilitates the adjustment of the correction force by acquiring relevant temperature data and pressure data. The third elastic connecting member 330 elastically connects the two rib plates 310, and then encloses a closing area surface with the rib plates 310 and the functional substrate 110 to apply an orthopedic force. In specific applications, the second elastic connecting member 230 and the third elastic connecting member 330 generally adopt elastic bands.
[0065] Specifically, the functional substrate 110 protrudes toward both sides relative to other substrates 100, and the chute 110A is arranged on this protruding part. The ends of the rib plates 310 are snapped into the chute 110A, and at least part of them is larger than the width of the chute 110A to prevent the rib plates 310 from disengaging from the chute 110A. The main shape of the rib plates 310 fits the side of the human body, that is, semi-elliptical. The other end of the rib plates 310 is provided with an opening to connect the second elastic connecting member 230.
[0066] In a further embodiment of the present invention, an installation groove 110B is provided on each side of the functional substrate 110, and the adjustment hub 220 is rotatably arranged in any one of the installation grooves 110B on any one of the functional substrates 110; the driving wire 210 is wound around the adjustment hub 220 and connected to the rib plate 310 on the corresponding side, so as to adjust the correction force applied by the rib plate 310 on the corresponding side when the adjustment hub 220 rotates.
[0067] In this embodiment, by providing the installation grooves 110B on both sides of the functional substrate 110 and allowing the adjustment hub 220 to be rotatably arranged in any one of the installation grooves 110B, the object to be orthopedically corrected or the doctor can, according to actual needs, select to install the adjustment hub 220 at a suitable position, and then can apply a correction force to the object to be orthopedically corrected on the appropriate side.
[0068] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the fixing assembly 500 includes a thigh strap 520 arranged on the tail substrate 140; a torso strap 530 arranged on the transition substrate 120; and a shoulder strap 510 arranged on the tail substrate 140.
[0069] In this embodiment, the thigh strap 520 and the shoulder strap 510 are arranged on the tail substrate 140, which can effectively fix the orthopedic device on the user and ensure that the device will not slip or shift during use. At the same time, these straps can also be adjusted according to the user's body shape and comfort requirements to achieve a better fitting effect. There are two pairs of shoulder straps 510, and two in one pair respectively pass through the upper part of the shoulder and under the armpit to completely fix the main substrate 130, while there is also one pair of thigh straps 520, and each thigh strap 520 includes a strap loop. When wearing the device, the thigh passes through the strap loop.
[0070] Furthermore, the thigh strap 520, the torso strap 530 and the shoulder strap 510 should be provided with a tightening structure to further improve the fixing effect.
[0071] Since the functional substrate 110 needs to apply a correction force, and the main substrate 130 and the tail substrate 140 play a fixing role, the main body structure stiffness of the main substrate 130, the functional substrate 110 and the tail substrate 140 is generally relatively high. However, a structure with a relatively high stiffness is less comfortable for the object to be orthopedically corrected to wear. Therefore, a layer of lining needs to be installed on the inner side of all the substrates 100. The lining is made of a soft material such as sponge or silicone material that is more comfortable when worn by the human body to improve the adaptability of the object to be orthopedically corrected. The lining needs to be ergonomically designed to fit anyone.
[0072] In a specific application, in order to facilitate the installation of the fixing assembly 500, holes are provided on the transition substrate 120, the main substrate 130 and the tail substrate 140 for the installation of the torso strap 530, the shoulder strap 510 and the thigh strap 520 respectively.
[0073] In a further embodiment of the present invention, the scoliosis orthosis device further includes: a control module 600 disposed on the main substrate 130; a sensing interface 700 disposed on the main substrate 130 and signal-connected to the control module 600; and a sensing wire 800 signal-connected to the data acquisition module 320 and the sensing interface 700, so that the control module 600 receives and analyzes the test data acquired by the data acquisition module 320.
[0074] In a further embodiment of the present invention, a fixing structure is provided on the transition substrate 120, and the sensing wire 800 passes through the fixing member 120A; the fixing assembly 500 further includes a torso strap 530, and both ends of the torso strap 530 are connected to the transition substrate 120.
[0075] In a specific application, the automatic adjustment of the scoliosis orthosis device can be realized through the control module 600. To adapt to the automatic adjustment, a motor also needs to be added at the adjustment hub 220, and the adjustment hub 220 is rotated by the motor, and the motor is electrically connected to the control module 600. The control module 600 controls the motor according to the temperature, pressure and other information acquired by the data acquisition module 320 and the preset parameters, and then adjusts the correction force applied by the correction components 300 at each position. Specifically, a power supply module can also be added on the main substrate 130, and the power supply supplies power to the data acquisition module 320 and the control module 600.
[0076] The shape of the substrate 100 needs to be ergonomically designed. Specifically, all substrates 100 will be recessed in part to fit the recess of the spine part in the human back. Two first elastic connectors 400 are disposed on both sides of the recessed part, and another two first elastic connectors 400 are disposed on the outermost edge part of the substrate 100. Since the main substrate 130 is attached to the human scapula and the tail substrate 140 is attached to the human buttocks, both the main substrate 130 and the tail substrate 140 will protrude in the connection direction part of the substrate to increase the attachment area. The data acquisition module 320 is also arc-shaped to better fit the side part of the human torso.
[0077] The scoliosis orthosis device provided above is based on a modular design. Since multiple substrates 100 are detachably connected, it can be applied to orthosis objects with different body parameters and scoliosis states by changing the arrangement and combination method, and has the advantage of being reusable. The adjustment component 200 is designed with wire drive to achieve the adjustment of the correction force. One orthosis can be applied to the whole cycle correction of scoliosis without remaking the orthosis as the correction progress. The controller cooperates with the data acquisition module to monitor the correction force and wearing time in real time, which is convenient for adjusting the correction force and improving the treatment effect. The first elastic connecting piece 400 provides the user with six degrees of freedom of movement of the trunk, which can ensure that the main body shape of the orthosis does not change when slightly stressed, but does not interfere when the user makes movements that require degrees of freedom of the trunk such as bending over and turning around, ensuring flexibility to the greatest extent.
[0078] Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described above, it can be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the present application. Those skilled in the art can make changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of the present application.
