[0029] The connecting rod B7 on the support part close to the mounting seat 1 is fixedly connected to the mounting seat 1, the connecting bolt 6 on the support part away from the mounting seat 1 is threadedly connected to the end mounting member 2, and the two adjacent support parts are threadedly connected through the connecting bolt 6 and the threaded hole A8;

[0030] Through the coordinated use of structures such as the mounting seat 1, multiple adjustable support arms, the end mounting part 2, the resistance increasing mechanism and the locking mechanism, objects (such as retractors, laparoscopes, nebulizers, etc.) can be stably supported, replacing the traditional method of medical staff holding objects (such as retractors, laparoscopes, nebulizers, etc.), and it is convenient to flexibly adjust the position of the fixed supported object. It is suitable for a variety of application scenarios, and the operation is simple and convenient, with high flexibility. It can not only stably support the held object for a long time, but also greatly reduce the workload of medical staff, so that medical human resources can be fully utilized.

[0031] The resistance increasing mechanism comprises a U-shaped connecting block 11, a connecting rod C12 and a connecting rod D13 are hingedly installed inside the U-shaped connecting block 11, a connecting rod E14 is hingedly installed at one end of the connecting rod C12 away from the U-shaped connecting block 11, the other end of the connecting rod E14 movably passes through the connecting rod A3 and extends to the inside of the device cavity B10, and an arc-shaped rubber resistance increasing block 15 adapted to the universal ball 5 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod E14 extending to the inside of the device cavity B10, and a T-shaped hollow connecting rod 15 is hingedly installed at one end of the connecting rod D13 away from the U-shaped connecting block 11. Connecting block 16, connecting rods F17 are hingedly installed on the T-shaped hollow connecting block 16 and on both sides of the connecting rod D13, and the other ends of the two connecting rods F17 are respectively hingedly installed with rectangular connecting blocks 18 and T-shaped connecting blocks 19, and an annular rubber resistance-increasing block 20 is fixedly connected to the T-shaped connecting block 19, the rectangular connecting block 18 is hingedly installed on the connecting rod B7, the T-shaped connecting block 19 is pivotally installed on the connecting rod A3, the arc-shaped rubber resistance-increasing block 15 is arranged to abut against the universal ball 5, and the annular rubber resistance-increasing block 20 is arranged to abut against the connecting rod A3.

[0032] Working principle: When the fixing bracket needs to be used to support and fix an object (retractor, laparoscope or nebulizer, etc.), the staff first fixes the mounting seat 1 at a suitable position in the area to be used (such as an operating table or a hospital bed) to complete the installation and fixation of the fixing bracket, and then adaptively replaces the end mounting member 2 according to the type of the support to be fixed. The end mounting member 2 can be disassembled by rotating the end mounting member 2 to release the threaded connection with the connecting bolt 6 on the support part. Then, according to the type of the support to be fixed, the matching end mounting member 2 is screwed in the reverse direction so that it is threadedly installed on the connecting bolt 6 on the support part;

[0033] When the end mounting part 2 is replaced as required, the object to be fixedly supported (retractor, laparoscope or nebulizer, etc.) is then fixedly mounted on the end mounting part 2. Different types of end mounting parts 2 have different functions of fixing objects. For example, the end mounting part 2 is provided with hooks, mounting holes, straps, clamps, etc. to facilitate the support of different types of objects.

[0034] After the object to be fixed and supported is installed on the end mounting member 2, the staff then moves the end mounting member 2 with one hand to adjust its position, thereby adjusting the position of the object to be fixed and supported, and the other hand can appropriately adjust the positions of multiple supporting parts to complete the adjustment of the position of the end mounting member 2, and in the process of adjusting the position of the end mounting member 2, since the arc-shaped rubber resistance-increasing block 15 is in abutment with the universal ball 5, it can provide a certain damping when the universal ball 5 rotates relative to the universal ball mounting cavity 4, so as to provide a preliminary positioning effect for the universal ball 5 after rotation, and since the annular rubber resistance-increasing block 20 is in abutment with the connecting rod A3, it can provide a certain damping when the connecting rod A3 rotates relative to the connecting rod, so as to provide a preliminary positioning effect for the connecting rod A3 and the connecting rod B7 after rotation, so that after the staff releases their hands, the end mounting member 2 and the supporting part can still be in the adjusted state;

[0035] After the position adjustment of the object to be fixed and supported is completed, the locking mechanism is driven to operate, and the U-shaped connecting block 11 is pushed to move by the locking mechanism, and is pushed to move by the connecting rod C12 and the connecting rod D13, and then the annular rubber resistance-increasing block 20 is pushed to move toward the side close to the universal ball 5 through the cooperation of the connecting rod E14, the T-shaped hollow connecting block 16, the connecting rod six and the T-shaped connecting block 19, and the annular rubber resistance-increasing block 20 is pushed to move toward the side of the connecting rod A3, so that the annular rubber resistance-increasing block 20 is more tightly abutted against the universal ball 5, thereby further locking the universal ball 5, and the annular rubber resistance-increasing block 20 is more tightly abutted against the connecting rod A3, thereby further locking the connecting rod A3 and the connecting rod B7, so as to ensure that the fixed bracket can stably support the object.

[0036] Embodiment 2:

[0037] See also Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 This embodiment provides a technical solution based on the first embodiment: the locking mechanism includes a cylinder 21 embedded in the connecting rod A3, and the telescopic end of the cylinder 21 is fixedly connected to the U-shaped connecting block 11.

[0038] By starting the cylinder 21, the telescopic end of the cylinder 21 extends, driving the U-shaped connecting block 11 to move, thereby driving the resistance increasing mechanism to operate, further increasing the friction between the universal ball 5 and the arc-shaped rubber resistance increasing block 15. At the same time, the friction between the annular rubber resistance increasing block 20 and the connecting rod A3 is further improved, thereby achieving further locking and fixing of the support part, thereby improving the supporting effect of the fixed bracket on the object.

[0039] Embodiment three:

[0040] See also Figure 6-Figure 8 This embodiment provides a technical solution based on the first embodiment: the locking mechanism includes a threaded hole B22 and a tension spring 23, the threaded hole B22 is opened on the connecting rod A3, the tension spring 23 is fixedly installed between the connecting rod A3 and the U-shaped connecting block 11, and a movable rod 24 is movably inserted inside the threaded hole B22, one end of the movable rod 24 is rotatably connected to the U-shaped connecting block 11, and the other end of the movable rod 24 is fixedly connected to a locking bolt 25, and the other end of the locking bolt 25 is fixedly connected to a knob 26.

[0041] The U-shaped connecting block 11 is pulled by the elastic force of the tension spring 23, so that the arc-shaped rubber resistance-increasing block 15 and the annular rubber resistance-increasing block 20 are respectively abutted against the universal ball 5 and the connecting rod A3, and the friction between the two is used to perform a preliminary locking effect on the support part, which is convenient for the staff to adjust the positions of multiple support parts, and can play a preliminary positioning effect after the position adjustment is completed, which can free the staff's hands and facilitate the staff to perform the next step of the operation. Then, the staff turns the knob 26 to drive the locking screw to rotate, so that it is threadedly connected with the threaded hole B22, and pushes the movable rod 24 and the U-shaped connecting block 11 to move, thereby driving the resistance-increasing mechanism to operate, further increasing the friction between the universal ball 5 and the arc-shaped rubber resistance-increasing block 15. At the same time, the friction between the annular rubber resistance-increasing block 20 and the connecting rod A3 is further improved, thereby achieving further locking and fixing of the support part, thereby improving the supporting effect of the fixed bracket on the object.

[0042] The above description is only by way of illustration of certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. It is undoubted that those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
