[0002] Thoracolumbar fracture refers to the destruction of the continuity of thoracic and lumbar bone due to external force. It is the most common spinal injury. In young and middle-aged patients, high-energy injury is the main cause of injury, such as car accidents and falls from heights. In elderly patients, due to osteoporosis, the injury factors are mostly low-energy injuries, such as slips and falls.

[0003] During the rehabilitation stage, patients need to use some external rehabilitation tools to improve the rehabilitation effect. The more common ones include orthopedic airbags and suspension traction systems.

[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the following will be described clearly and completely in combination with the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are partial embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0032] The intelligent reduction bed for thoracolumbar fractures of the preferred embodiment of the present invention is as follows: Figure 1 See also Figure 2-Figure 3 , including a bed body 1, wherein both sides of the middle of the bed body 1 are provided with liftable guardrails 2, and the upper ends of the two guardrails 2 are connected by a suspension belt 3; both sides of the suspension belt 3 are connected to the bed body 1 through an elastic metal mesh 4, and the surface of the elastic metal mesh 4 is provided with a first inflatable airbag 5 and a second inflatable airbag 6 connected to each other, the first inflatable airbag 5 is connected to the suspension belt 3, and the second inflatable airbag 6 is connected to the bed body 1; a pressure-bearing airbag 30 is provided on the upper surface of the suspension belt 3, and a pressure detector 31 for detecting the internal air pressure of the pressure-bearing airbag 30 is provided at the end of the suspension belt 3; a first pressure detection unit 50 is provided on the first inflatable airbag 5, and a second pressure detection unit 60 is provided on the second inflatable airbag 6; the intelligent reduction bed for thoracolumbar fractures also includes a control host 7 and an air-charging and air-discharging unit 8 for inflating and discharging the first inflatable airbag 5 and the second inflatable airbag 6 (respectively connected by an air pipe 9);

[0033] When in use, the control host 7 controls the two guardrails 2 to rise synchronously, the suspension belt 3 is pulled up and leaves the surface of the bed body 1, and the elastic metal meshes 4 on both sides of the suspension belt 3 are stretched. After the lumbar spine (human body) is lifted to a suitable height, the control host 7 controls the guardrails 2 to stop rising; the control host 7 collects the air pressure value inside the pressure-bearing airbag 30 detected by the pressure detector 31, and controls the inflation and deflation unit 8 to inflate the first inflatable airbag 5 and the second inflatable airbag 6 according to the set pressure curve (the curve can be specifically formulated according to the conditions of different patients, and of course it can also be self-adjusted according to the patient's feelings), and stops inflating when the first pressure detection unit 50 and the second pressure detection unit 60 detect that the air pressure value reaches a value that meets the pressure curve; when not in use, the control host 7 controls the inflation and deflation unit 8 to deflate the first inflatable airbag 5 and the second inflatable airbag 6, and controls the two guardrails 2 to descend and reset synchronously. After resetting, the suspension belt 3 fits with the bed body under the pulling action of the two elastic metal meshes 4 (to ensure integrity);

[0034] By applying the method and technique of the present application, the two methods of suspension and airbag are combined, and three usage modes of suspension, airbag and combination of the two can be used, thereby achieving the advantages of both while avoiding the defects of both. In addition, the present solution also optimizes the suspension structure, giving the guardrail an additional suspension bracket function. The overall structure is simple, reasonable and compact, and can be used as a conventional bed in the storage state, which significantly improves the applicability of the bed.

[0035] The three modes are described as follows:

[0036] Single suspension mode: the first inflatable airbag 5 and the second inflatable airbag 6 are not inflated, and the suspension belt 3 and the elastic metal mesh 4 on both sides are used to provide support;

[0037] Mixed mode: the support force of the suspension belt 3 is the main one, and the first inflatable airbag 5 and the second inflatable airbag 6 are used for inflation assistance;

[0038] Airbag mode: Similar to the previous mode, except that the support force provided by the inflation of the first inflatable airbag 5 and the second inflatable airbag 6 is greater, and the suspension belt 3 is no longer the main support.

[0039] It should be noted that the structural mode of the suspension belt combined with the elastic metal mesh proposed in the present application not only has the above advantages, but also the suspension belt 3, when pulled up, is enclosed with the elastic metal mesh 4 on both sides and the bed body 1 to form a relatively closed space, and the automatic massage unit (which needs to be selected according to the patient's condition) can be arranged in the space to replace part of the doctor's massage work during the recovery of thoracolumbar fractures, further reducing the doctor's load; during massage, the elastic metal mesh 4 also plays a role in dispersing the force, and the airbag can play a buffering role;

[0040] Preferably, the automatic massage unit can adopt the following embodiments:

[0041] The bed body 1 is provided with a slot 110 which is opposite to the suspension belt 3 and the elastic metal net 4. The slot 110 is provided with a massage roller 111, a lifting unit 112 for driving the massage roller 111 to rise and fall, and a transverse movement unit 113 for driving the lifting unit 112 to transversely move along the length direction of the bed body. The massage roller 111 has a support mode, a massage mode and a storage mode.

[0042] In the support mode, the massage roller 111 is driven to rise by the lifting unit 112, contacts and changes the shape of the elastic metal mesh 4 into a bent shape, thereby changing the shape of the first inflatable airbag 5 or the second inflatable airbag 6 on the surface of the elastic metal mesh, so as to enhance the support force and increase the adaptability to the human body;

[0043] In the massage mode, the massage roller 111 contacts and continuously changes the shape of the elastic metal mesh 4 (may be clickable or reciprocating) under the coordinated action of the lifting unit 112 and the lateral movement unit 113, thereby completing the automatic massage operation;

[0044] In the storage mode, the massage roller shaft 111 is received in the slot 110, and the upper surface of the massage roller shaft 111 is kept flush with the bed body 1; the normal use of the bed body is not affected after storage.

[0045] When the massage roller 111 is in the massage mode, the control host controls the lifting unit and the lateral movement unit to operate in coordination, and performs massage according to the set massage pressure curve:

[0046] Set the massage pressure curve, which divides the waist into multiple continuous areas, each area has a different pressure value;

[0047] When the control host controls the massage roller 111 to move horizontally to each area position, the value of the corresponding pressure detector, the first pressure detection unit or the second pressure detection unit is monitored;

[0048] Adjust the lifting unit 112 and the lateral movement unit 113 in real time so that the fluctuation range of the monitored value is within the set reasonable fluctuation range;

[0049] Relying on the precise detection data of the detection unit to ensure the accuracy of massage intensity can effectively avoid causing additional harm to patients.

[0050] Preferably, the bed body 1 includes a base 10 and a liftable bed board 11, the guardrail 2 is arranged on the base 10, and the guardrail 2 is longitudinally slidably connected to the bed board 11; the base 10 is provided with a first adjustment unit 12 for adjusting the lifting of the bed board 11 and a second adjustment unit 13 for adjusting the lifting of the guardrail 2; the upper end of the guardrail 2 is detachably connected to the suspension belt 3; adopting this structural design, it is convenient to adjust the height of the guardrail 2 and the bed board 11, and at the same time, realize the functions of the liftable guardrail and bed board, and can also ensure that the guardrail 2 and the bed board 11 are relatively non-shifted, thereby ensuring the reliability of the suspension;

[0051] The first adjusting unit 12 and the second adjusting unit 13 may be implemented by using an existing lifting structure, which is not limited.

[0052] An application method of an intelligent reduction bed for thoracolumbar fractures, using the intelligent reduction bed for thoracolumbar fractures as described above, Figure 4 As shown, the method comprises the steps of:

[0053] S01: The control host controls the two guardrails to rise synchronously, the suspension belt is pulled up and leaves the bed surface, and the elastic metal nets on both sides of the suspension belt are stretched;

[0054] S02: When the lumbar vertebrae are lifted to a suitable height, the control host controls the guardrail to stop rising;

[0055] S03: The control host collects the air pressure value inside the pressure-bearing airbag detected by the pressure detector and reads the set pressure curve;

[0056] S04: Controlling the inflation and deflation unit to inflate the first inflatable airbag and the second inflatable airbag according to the pressure curve, and stopping inflation when the first pressure detection unit and the second pressure detection unit detect that the air pressure value reaches a value that meets the pressure curve;

[0057] S05: When not in use, the control host controls the inflation and deflation unit to deflate the first and second inflatable airbags, and controls the two guardrails to drop and reset synchronously. After resetting, the suspension belt fits with the bed body under the pulling action of the two elastic metal nets;

[0058] By applying the method of the present application, the two methods of suspension and airbag are combined, and three usage modes of suspension, airbag and combination of the two can be used, thereby achieving the advantages of both while avoiding the defects of both. In addition, this solution also optimizes the suspension structure and gives the guardrail an additional suspension bracket function. The overall structure is simple, reasonable and compact. It can be used as a conventional bed in the storage state, which significantly improves the applicability of the bed.

[0059] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or changes based on the above description, and all these improvements and changes should fall within the scope of protection of the appended claims of the present invention.
