[0002] Upper limb edema is one of the common complications after breast surgery, which greatly affects the patient's physical and mental health. In addition to the necessary negative pressure drainage and drug-assisted treatment after surgery, necessary auxiliary massage therapy is also required. The initial massage and small-amplitude activities can be performed by the patient himself or with the assistance of a physical therapist. As the rehabilitation stage progresses, a special upper limb edema massage treatment device is needed for rehabilitation treatment.

[0003] Although there are many kinds of massage therapy devices currently, there are still some problems. For example, most of the current massage therapy devices are in contact with the patient's upper limbs and assist in massage by holding them by the caregivers. Long-term hand-held operation will not only cause arm soreness for the caregivers, but also because the current massage devices have a small massage area and can often only massage a certain part of the patient's upper limbs, the caregivers are required to constantly move the handheld device on the patient's upper limbs to achieve a covering massage effect on the patient's upper limbs.

It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0029] The embodiment of the present invention provides a massage treatment device for upper limb edema after breast cancer surgery, such as Figure 1-6 As shown, it includes: a fixed ring 1, a docking plate 2, a bottom plate 3, a massage mechanism 4 and a transmission mechanism 5, a plurality of fixed rings 1 are arranged at equal intervals, the docking plate 2 is fixed between two adjacent fixed rings 1, and the bottom plate 3 is fixed at the bottom of the fixed ring 1;

[0030] A massage mechanism 4 for massaging the patient's upper limbs is arranged on the fixed ring 1, and the massage mechanism 4 includes a driven ring 41, a connecting plate 42, a passive plate 43, a linkage cylinder 44 and a massage rod 45. The driven ring 41 is rotatably connected to the fixed ring 1, and a plurality of the driven rings 41 are equidistantly arranged. One end of the connecting plate 42 is rotatably connected to the driven ring 41, and the other end is rotatably connected to one end of the passive plate 43. The passive plate 43 is rotatably connected between two adjacent connecting plates 42. The linkage cylinder 44 is rotatably connected to the passive plate 43. The massage rod 45 is arranged on the linkage cylinder 44. The connecting plate 42 and the connecting ends of the passive plate 43 and the connecting plate 42 are all L-shaped structures.

[0031] The transmission mechanism 5 is arranged on the base plate 3 and is partially connected to the driven ring 41. The transmission mechanism 5 includes a driven bevel gear 51 and a driving bevel gear 52. The driven bevel gear 51 is coaxially fixed on one of the driven rings 41, and the driving bevel gear 52 is rotatably connected to the base plate 3, and the driven bevel gear 51 and the driving bevel gear 52 are meshed with each other.

[0032] The transmission mechanism 5 further includes a worm wheel 53 , a worm 54 and a servo motor 55 . The worm wheel 53 is coaxially fixed to the bottom of the driving bevel gear 52 . The worm 54 is rotatably connected to the bottom plate 3 , and the worm 54 is meshed with one side of the worm wheel 53 .

[0033] A servo motor 55 is fixed on the bottom plate 3 , one end of the worm 54 is coaxially fixed with the output shaft of the servo motor 55 , and the servo motor 55 is connected to an external electric control device through a wire.

[0034] The transmission mechanism 5 further includes a transmission rod 56 , which is coaxially fixed between two adjacent worm gears 54 .

[0035] It should be noted that, since most of the existing massage therapy devices are in contact with the patient's upper limbs and assist in massage by the nursing staff holding them, long-term hand-held operation will not only cause arm pain to the nursing staff, but also because the current massage devices have a small massage area and can often only massage a certain part of the patient's upper limbs, the nursing staff needs to constantly move the handheld device on the patient's upper limbs to achieve a covering massage effect on the patient's upper limbs. The operation is cumbersome and time-consuming. In order to solve this problem, a massage mechanism 4 and a transmission mechanism 5 are set in this solution. The setting of the fixed ring 1 supports the massage mechanism 4 as a whole, and then the annular structure enables the massage device as a whole to be directly sleeved on the outside of the patient's upper limb, and the rotation of the driven ring 41 drives the connecting plate 42 and the passive plate 43 to be linked as a whole, and then drives the multiple linkage cylinders 44 set on the outside of the fixed ring 1 to be linked synchronously, so that they roll on the outside of the patient's upper limb, and achieve the massage effect on the patient's upper limb through the massage rod 45, which is simple and efficient. The annular structure enables the device to massage most parts of the patient's upper limb synchronously during a massage operation, avoiding the need to frequently move the device, saving time and effort;

[0036] The transmission mechanism 5 enables the massage mechanisms 4 on the multiple fixed rings 1 to be linked synchronously, and the worm gear 53 and worm 54 structure effectively prevents the overall reversal of the massage mechanism 4 due to resistance during massage. It is simple, efficient and practical.

[0037] Specifically, in this embodiment, the scheme mainly includes a fixed ring 1, a docking plate 2, a base plate 3, a massage mechanism 4, a transmission mechanism 5, a support plate 6 and a damping rod 7. When in use, the patient's upper limb is first passed through the fixed ring 1 and placed on the support plate 6, and then the servo motor 55 drives the worm 54 to rotate, and the worm gear 53 is engaged and linked, and then the active bevel gear 52 is driven to rotate through the worm gear 53, and the driven bevel gear 51 is driven to rotate synchronously, and the driven bevel gear 51 drives the driven ring 41, the connecting plate 42 and the passive plate 43 to be linked as a whole through the driven bevel gear 51. At this time, the linkage cylinder 44 makes a circular motion along the fixed ring 1. While moving, the massage rod 45 abuts against the patient's upper limb to achieve a massage effect.

[0038] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-6 As shown, a plurality of massage rods 45 are equidistantly arranged on the linkage cylinder 44, and the ends of the massage rods 45 that contact the human body are in an arc structure and are wrapped with skin-friendly material.

[0039] In this embodiment, the arc structure and skin-friendly material are used to improve the comfort of the massage rod 45 when it contacts the patient's upper limbs.

[0040] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-6 As shown, a cylindrical notch is formed on the linkage cylinder 44 , and the massage rod 45 is slidably engaged in the cylindrical notch. A buffer spring 46 is provided at the bottom of the notch, and one end of the buffer spring 46 abuts against the massage rod 45 .

[0041] In this embodiment, the buffer spring 46 can provide a certain degree of buffering to the massage rod 45 when it contacts the patient's upper limb.

[0042] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-6 As shown, the diameter of the driven bevel gear 51 is at least twice that of the driving bevel gear 52 .

[0043] In this embodiment, the torque transmitted by the servo motor 55 is increased by using gear sets with different diameters.

[0044] In a further preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-6 As shown, a supporting plate 6 is arranged on the docking plate 2, a damping rod 7 is arranged between the supporting plate 6 and the docking plate 2, and the supporting plate 6 is made of soft rubber material to form an arc structure.

[0045] In this embodiment, the patient's upper limbs are supported by the support plate 6, and the support plate 6 is cushioned by the damping rod 7, so as to further improve the patient's comfort.
