Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular to a body positioning frame for spinal care. Background Art

[0002] In the treatment and care of spinal diseases, maintaining a correct posture is crucial for the patient's recovery. Therefore, in the care stage of patients with kyphosis, a posture frame is needed to restrain and support the patient's body. Since the wound is located on the spine at the center of the body, in order to avoid compressing the patient's wound, the current posture frame generally only supports the two sides of the patient's wound. However, in actual applications, since the patient needs to maintain the posture for a long time through the posture frame, the center of the patient's body is prone to sinking due to lack of support under the influence of gravity. At this time, the posture frame will apply a horizontal traction force to the patient's body while applying an upward support force to the patient. When acting on the wound, the patient's wound will be pulled to both sides, causing the patient's wound to be torn and body fluids to leak out, thereby interfering with the normal healing of the patient's wound.

[0003] For this reason, we propose a body position frame for spinal care. Summary of the invention

[0004] The main purpose of the present invention is to provide a spinal care body position frame to solve the problems raised in the background technology.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: it includes a body position restraint frame, the body position restraint frame is equipped with a plurality of back restraint ends, and the back restraint ends have a plurality of and are symmetrically distributed, the back restraint end includes a mounting connection part, a split contact part and a limit mounting part, the split contact part and the limit mounting part are both mounted on the top of the mounting connection part, a lifting pressure regulating end is slidably provided on the inner side of the split contact part, and a lifting end driven part is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the lifting pressure regulating end, a tension sensing unit and a tension adjustment unit are installed on the back restraint end, wherein the tension sensing unit is located on the inner side of the limit mounting part and is connected to the split contact part, the tension sensing unit is used to detect the tension on both sides of the patient's body and judge whether the value reaches a threshold value, the tension sensing unit is connected to the tension adjustment unit by signal, the tension adjustment unit is started by the signal sent by the tension sensing unit, and drives the linkage adjustment end installed below the mounting connection part to complete the adjustment of the tension on both sides of the patient's body;

[0006] The tension sensing unit includes a pressure acquisition module, a numerical display module, a data analysis module and a signal sending module. The pressure acquisition module is used to obtain the pressure applied by the split contact part and transmit the pressure value to the numerical display module and the data analysis module, wherein the numerical display module will display the value, and the data analysis module will subtract the value from the value through the internal threshold. If the result is a negative number, a signal will be sent to the signal sending module through the signal line, and the signal sending module will send a wireless signal to the outside after receiving the signal;

[0007] The tension adjustment unit includes a signal receiving module and a servo motor, wherein the signal receiving module is used to receive the signal sent by the signal sending module and transmit the signal to the servo motor through a signal line. The servo motor drives the linkage adjustment end to adjust the pressure on both sides of the patient's wound.

[0008] A further improvement of the present invention is that the body position restraint frame includes a supporting and stabilizing portion, a neck support portion, a waist support portion, a leg support portion and a connecting and fixing portion, and the neck support portion, the waist support portion and the leg support portion are all connected to the supporting and stabilizing portion via the connecting and fixing portion.

[0009] A further improvement of the present invention is that a clearance guide groove is provided inside the installation connection part, the lifting end driven part passes through the clearance guide groove and penetrates the installation connection part, and the width of the clearance guide groove is greater than that of the lifting end driven part.

[0010] A further improvement of the present invention is that the linkage adjustment end includes a linkage end active part and a linkage end motion guide part, the linkage end active part is rotatably connected to the outside of the linkage end motion guide part, and the two sides of the linkage end motion guide part are respectively rotated inside the tension adjustment unit and the connection and fixing part.

[0011] A further improvement of the present invention is that a method for using a spinal care body position frame comprises the following steps:

[0012] S1. After the patient undergoes spinal surgery, the medical staff can place the patient flat on the body restraint frame, with the patient's neck located above the neck support, the back located above several back restraint ends, and the waist and legs located above the waist support and leg support parts respectively, so as to provide support and maintain the patient's body position, so that the patient's spine can maintain a suitable body position after surgery, and prevent trauma to the patient's incompletely corrected spine;

[0013] S2. When the back restraint end supports the patient's back, the patient will come into contact with the split contact part. Since there are gaps between several back restraint ends to make room for the patient's wound, the center of the patient's body will sink downward. When this happens, the back skin of the patient in contact with the split contact part will exert a large friction force on the split contact part, causing the split contact part to generate a horizontal pulling force toward the outside of the patient's wound. Since the split contact part is in contact with the tension sensing unit, the pressure acquisition module inside the tension sensing unit will continuously detect the pressure applied in the horizontal direction by the split contact part and display it through the numerical display module. Medical staff can judge the stress condition of the patient's back skin through the numerical value displayed by the numerical display module, and the numerical value detected by the pressure acquisition module will be continuously transmitted to the data analysis module, and the data analysis module will continuously compare the difference with this numerical value through the internal preset value. If the value is negative, the horizontal pulling force on the surface skin is too large. At this time, the data analysis module will transmit a signal to the signal sending module, and the signal sending module will wirelessly transmit the signal to the outside world.

[0014] S3. The signal receiving module receives the signal sent by the signal sending module and transmits a control command to the servo motor. At this time, the servo motor starts and drives the linkage end motion guide part to rotate. When the linkage end motion guide part rotates, it drives the linkage end active part to move horizontally. During the horizontal movement, the linkage end active part contacts the lifting end driven part. Since the contact surfaces of the linkage end active part and the lifting end driven part are both inclined surfaces, the lifting end driven part will produce a vertical upward movement. During the vertical upward movement, the lifting end driven part will drive the lifting and pressure regulating end to move synchronously. The lifting and pressure regulating end will lift the skin on both sides of the patient's wound upward to reduce the impact of the horizontal pulling force on the patient's wound.

[0015] Compared with the existing technology, while supporting and restraining the patient's posture after spinal surgery to avoid damage to the patient's spine, it can also control and adjust the tension in time when the skin on both sides of the patient's wound is subjected to a large tension, thereby reducing the impact of the tension on the patient's wound, while preventing pressure on the patient's wound.

Based on the specific embodiments of the present invention, all other specific embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] Example

[0022] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 , including a body position constraint frame 1, the body position constraint frame 1 is installed with a plurality of back constraint ends 2, and the back constraint ends 2 have a plurality of and are symmetrically distributed, the back constraint end 2 includes a mounting connection portion 21, a split contact portion 22 and a limit mounting portion 23, the split contact portion 22 and the limit mounting portion 23 are both installed at the top of the mounting connection portion 21, a lifting pressure regulating end 3 is slidably provided inside the split contact portion 22, and a lifting end driven portion 31 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the lifting pressure regulating end 3, and a tension sensing unit 4 and The tension adjustment unit 5, wherein the tension sensing unit 4 is located inside the limit mounting portion 23 and connected to the split contact portion 22, the tension sensing unit 4 is used to detect the tension on both sides of the patient's body and determine whether the value reaches a threshold value, the tension sensing unit 4 is connected to the tension adjustment unit 5 by signal, the tension adjustment unit 5 is started by the signal sent by the tension sensing unit 4, and drives the linkage adjustment end 6 installed below the mounting connection portion 21 to complete the adjustment of the tension on both sides of the patient's body;

[0023] The tension sensing unit 4 includes a pressure acquisition module 41, a numerical display module 42, a data analysis module 43 and a signal sending module 44. The pressure acquisition module 41 is used to obtain the pressure applied by the split contact portion 22, and transmit the pressure value to the numerical display module 42 and the data analysis module 43, wherein the numerical display module 42 will display the value, and the data analysis module 43 will subtract the value from the value through the internal threshold value. If the result is a negative number, a signal will be sent to the signal sending module 44 through the signal line. After receiving the signal, the signal sending module 44 will send a wireless signal to the outside;

[0024] The tension adjustment unit 5 includes a signal receiving module 51 and a servo motor 52, wherein the signal receiving module 51 is used to receive the signal sent by the signal sending module 44, and transmit the signal to the servo motor 52 through the signal line. The servo motor 52 drives the linkage adjustment end 6 to adjust the pressure on both sides of the patient's wound.

[0025] In this embodiment, after the support and position restraint work of the patient after spinal surgery is completed by the position restraint frame 1, in order to avoid compressing the patient's wound, there is a gap between the symmetrically distributed back restraint ends 2, so that the patient's body located at the gap will sink downward due to its own gravity. When this happens, the back skin of the patient in contact with the split contact part 22 will apply a large friction force to the split contact part 22, causing the split contact part 22 to generate a horizontal pulling force toward the outside of the patient's wound. The split contact part 22 and the installation connection part 21 are of a split design, and the installation connection part 21 and The horizontal pulling force will not be shared, and the contact surface between the split contact part 22 and the installation connection part 21 can be coated with a Teflon coating to further reduce the influence of the installation connection part 21 on the horizontal force of the split contact part 22, and the split contact part 22 will transmit the horizontal pulling force to the tension sensing unit 4. The pressure collection module 41 inside the tension sensing unit 4 will continuously detect the pressure applied to the split contact part 22 in the horizontal direction, and display it through the numerical display module 42. Medical staff can judge the stress condition of the patient's back skin through the numerical display module 42, and the numerical value detected by the pressure collection module 41 will be continuously transmitted to the digital display module 42. The data analysis module 43 will continuously compare the difference with the internal preset value. If the result is a negative value, the horizontal tension on the surface skin is too large. At this time, the data analysis module 43 will transmit a signal to the signal sending module 44, and the signal sending module 44 will wirelessly transmit the signal to the outside world. The signal receiving module 51 will receive the signal sent by the signal sending module 44 and transmit the control command to the servo motor 52. At this time, the servo motor 52 will start and drive the linkage end motion guide part 62 to rotate. When the linkage end motion guide part 62 rotates, it will drive the linkage end active part 61 to move horizontally. The active part 61 of the linkage end will move in the horizontal direction, and the active part 61 of the linkage end will contact the driven part 31 of the lifting end during the horizontal movement. Since the contact surfaces of the active part 61 of the linkage end and the driven part 31 of the lifting end are both inclined surfaces, the driven part 31 of the lifting end will move vertically upward. The driven part 31 of the lifting end will drive the lifting and regulating end 3 to move synchronously during the vertical upward movement. The lifting and regulating end 3 will lift the skin on both sides of the patient's wound upward, and the original horizontal pulling force will be decomposed into an upward component force and a smaller horizontal component force. The upward component force reduces the pulling force in the horizontal direction, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the influence of the horizontal pulling force on the patient's wound.

[0026] The body position restraint frame 1 includes a supporting and stabilizing portion 11, a neck supporting portion 12, a waist supporting portion 13, a leg supporting portion 14 and a connecting and fixing portion 15. The neck supporting portion 12, the waist supporting portion 13 and the leg supporting portion 14 are all connected to the supporting and stabilizing portion 11 via the connecting and fixing portion 15.

[0027] In this embodiment, the neck support part 12, the waist support part 13 and the leg support part 14 will respectively contact the patient's neck, back and legs, and support them so that they can continue to maintain a suitable position to avoid the patient's body from tilting, which may cause damage to the spine. Medical staff can use the elastic restraint belt to reduce the possibility of accidental body movement when the patient is in an unconscious state, thereby ensuring the restraint effect. The neck support part 12, the waist support part 13 and the leg support part 14 are all connected to the supporting and stabilizing part 11 through the connecting and fixing part 15, so that the supporting and stabilizing part 11 can connect and fix the neck support part 12, the waist support part 13 and the leg support part 14 through the connecting and fixing part 15, so that the neck support part 12, the waist support part 13 and the leg support part 14 can maintain a suitable position to complete the support and restraint work for the patient.

[0028] A clearance guide groove 211 is provided inside the installation connection part 21 , and the lifting end driven part 31 passes through the clearance guide groove 211 and penetrates the installation connection part 21 . The width of the clearance guide groove 211 is greater than that of the lifting end driven part 31 .

[0029] In this embodiment, the yield guide groove 211 provided inside the mounting connection portion 21 is used to make room for the lifting end driven portion 31 to penetrate therethrough, so that the lifting end driven portion 31 can extend to the bottom of the mounting connection portion 21, thereby enabling the linkage end active portion 61 located below the mounting connection portion 21 to contact the lifting end driven portion 31 during movement, thereby achieving the purpose of driving the lifting end driven portion 31 to move. The width of the yield guide groove 211 is greater than the lifting end driven portion 31, so that the split contact portion 22 changes in horizontal tension. When a small horizontal movement occurs, the lifting end driven portion 31 will not hinder the movement of the split contact portion 22, so that the split contact portion 22 can stably apply a horizontal force to the pressure collection module 41 to ensure the accuracy of the pressure detection results of the pressure collection module 41, thereby ensuring the subsequent pressure adjustment operation.

[0030] The linkage adjustment end 6 includes a linkage end active part 61 and a linkage end motion guide part 62. The linkage end active part 61 is rotatably connected to the outer side of the linkage end motion guide part 62. Both sides of the linkage end motion guide part 62 are respectively rotated inside the tension adjustment unit 5 and the connection fixing part 15.

[0031] In this embodiment, the linkage end active part 61 is used to drive the lifting end driven part 31 to move vertically. The contacting surfaces of the linkage end active part 61 and the lifting end driven part 31 are both inclined surfaces. When the linkage end active part 61 contacts the lifting end driven part 31 and applies a horizontal force to the lifting end driven part 31, the inclined surface cooperates to make the lifting end driven part 31 move vertically, so that the lifting end driven part 31 can drive the lifting pressure regulating end 3 to move upward to reduce the horizontal pulling force on the patient. The linkage end active part 61 rotates on the outside of the linkage end motion guide part 62. One end of the linkage end motion guide part 62 is connected to the output end of the servo motor 52. After the signal receiving module 51 transmits a control command to the servo motor 52, the servo motor 52 can drive the linkage end motion guide part 62 to rotate, and then drive the lifting end driven part 31 to be lifted through the horizontal movement of the linkage end active part 61, thereby completing the adjustment of the horizontal pulling force on the patient.

It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principles of the present invention.
