Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of spinal correction instruments, and in particular to a spinal correction device with a longitudinal force unloading function. Background Art

[0002] Sagittal imbalance of the spine is mainly caused by degenerative changes in the spine and its surrounding structures (such as paraspinal muscles). Sagittal imbalance of the spine caused by loss of lumbar lordosis is a common spinal deformity. In order to keep the line of sight horizontal, patients usually activate compensatory mechanisms, which will cause low back pain and limited movement function. Spinal correctors are used to correct sagittal imbalance of the spine. The principle is to apply a forward force to the lumbar spine and a backward force to the thoracic spine. These two forces form a correction force couple.

[0003] However, existing spinal correctors often generate longitudinal compression force while applying the correction force. During the process of correcting the spine, this compression force will have a negative impact on the user's spine and easily cause or aggravate the risk of scoliosis. Therefore, it is urgent to improve the spinal corrector to avoid the generation of longitudinal negative compression force. Summary of the invention

[0019] It should be noted that the connection seat 12 and the limiting convex part respectively arranged on the upper connection frame 1 and the power-assisting connection member 3 should include two cases: case 1 or case 2: case 1 is that the connection seat 12 is arranged on the upper connection frame 1, and the limiting convex part is arranged on the power-assisting connection member 3, in which case the limiting convex part does not conflict with the bottom end of the slide cavity 10; case 2 is that the connection seat 12 is arranged on the power-assisting connection member 3, and the limiting convex part is arranged on the upper connection frame 1, in which case the upper end of the slide cavity 10 does not conflict with the power-assisting connection member 3, and this embodiment belongs to case 1. In this embodiment, the slide cavity 10 extends in an arc shape in the spacing direction of the upper connection frame 1 and the lower connection frame 2, and the arc-shaped middle section corresponding to the slide cavity 10 bulges toward the rear side.

[0020] Combination Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the upper connecting frame 1 includes an upper plate 13 and a lower plate 14, the lower plate 14 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the upper plate 13, the first connecting sleeve is a strap 111, the strap 111 holds the user's shoulders from the front, and the ends of the strap 111 extend backward from the upper and lower sides of the shoulder and are respectively connected to the upper plate 13 and the lower plate 14. In this embodiment, the upper plate 13 and the lower plate 14 are rotatably connected to accommodate the pitching movement of the user's torso.

[0021] Combination Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the limiting protrusion is arranged at one end of the power-assisting connecting member 3 near the upper connecting frame 1, and the limiting protrusion includes a pair of rollers 311 rotatably mounted on both sides of the power-assisting connecting member 3; the connecting seat 12 is fixed to the rear side of the upper plate 13, and the connecting seat 12 is arranged in pairs, and one end of the power-assisting connecting member 3 near the upper connecting frame 1 is arranged between a pair of connecting seats 12, and a pair of rollers 311 are respectively rolled in the sliding cavity 10 on both sides. The rollers 311 are arranged to be slidably connected with the connecting seat 12, so as to avoid the friction between the limiting protrusion and the sliding cavity 10 causing the longitudinal pressure. In this embodiment, the rollers 311 are connected to the power-assisting connecting member 3 by screws. The rollers 311 are ball bearings. Specifically, the upper plate 13 is extended horizontally, and the lower plate 14 is extended longitudinally. The lower end of the connecting seat 12 extends below the upper plate 13, and the lower plate 14 is rotatably connected with the connecting seat 12.

[0022] Combination Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, one end of the cable 41 away from the power-assisting connecting member 3 is connected to the rear side of the corresponding waist support 21 on the lower connecting frame 2, and the second connecting sleeve 22 is connected below the waist.

[0023] Because the end of the cable 41 away from the power-assisting connector 3 is connected to the rear side of the lower connecting frame 2 corresponding to the lumbar support 21 , the lower connecting frame 2 is able to generate a forward thrust on the lumbar support 21 by the reaction force of the cable 41 and the second connecting sleeve 22 .

[0024] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the lower connecting frame 2 is provided with a guide wheel 24, which is located at the rear side of the rotating joint between the power-assisting connecting member 3 and the lower connecting frame 2, and the cable 41 is pressed on the side of the guide wheel 24 away from the waist support 21. Based on the above structure, there are two beneficial effects, one is to ensure the inclination angle of the cable 41 relative to the power-assisting connecting member 3, so as to ensure that the cable 41 generates a backward pulling force on the power-assisting connecting member 3; the other is to generate a thrust force at the waist support 21 to push the waist forward.

[0025] Further, combined with Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, a driver 6 and a reel 51 connected to the driver 6 are also included, and the driver 6 is used to drive the reel 51 to rotate, and the cable 41 is connected to the reel 51. The driver 6 drives the reel 51 to rotate to achieve the tightening and loosening of the cable 41, thereby adjusting the tension on the power-assisting connecting member 3. In this embodiment, the driver 6 is a motor installed on the rear side of the lumbar support 21 corresponding to the lower connecting frame 2, and the reel 51 is installed on the motor output shaft. The reel 51, the cable 41 and the power-assisting connecting member 3 are located on the sagittal plane of the user. In other embodiments, the driver 6 can be a manually driven shaft, and the shaft and the reel 51 are coaxially connected with a worm and a turbine that mesh with each other to achieve self-locking of the reel 51.

[0026] Further, combined with Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the second connecting sleeve 22 is connected to the hip. With the position where the front end of the lumbar support 21 contacts the back waist as the fulcrum, when the cable 41 acts on the lower connecting frame 2, a moment of pulling the hip backward is generated on the second connecting sleeve 22, and combined with the forward thrust of the lumbar support 21, a forward rotation couple is applied to the pelvis, which can simultaneously correct the pelvic backward rotation caused by the imbalance of the sagittal plane of the spine.

[0027] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a connecting frame 25 that can be adjusted up and down is provided at the bottom of the lower connecting frame 2, and the connecting frame 25 includes a connecting rod 251 that is slidably connected to the lower connecting frame 2 and a plate body 252 that is rotatably arranged at the lower end of the connecting rod 251, and the second connecting sleeve 22 is connected to the plate body 252. It can adapt to users of different heights. Specifically, the connecting rod 251 is clamped between a pair of pressing blocks 26 on the lower connecting frame 2, and a locking screw 261 is connected to the pressing block 26, and the sliding adjustment state of the connecting rod 251 is switched by loosening and tightening the locking screw 261.

[0028] Combination Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the power-assisting connecting member 3 includes a first rod body 31 rotatably connected to the lower connecting frame 2 and a second rod body 32 connected to the upper connecting frame 1, the second rod body 32 is slidably connected to the first rod body 31, and the cable 41 is connected to the first rod body 31. Based on the above structure, the power-assisting connecting member 3 can be adjusted in length to accommodate users of different heights. In this embodiment, the first rod body 31 is a tubular body sleeved on the second rod body 32, and the first rod body 31 and the second rod body 32 are axially locked by a locking pin.

[0029] In this embodiment, the power-assisting connecting member 3 and the lower connecting frame 2 are connected by a universal joint. Different from a pivot connection, it ensures the freedom of the wearer's waist in the frontal plane and can adapt to the lateral and lateral rotation movement of the waist. Specifically, the universal joint is a fisheye bearing.

[0030] In order to ensure that the waist support 21 generates sufficient forward thrust, in this embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the power-assisting connector 3 and the lower connecting frame 2 are connected to the rotating joint A; the cable 41 pulls the power-assisting connector 3 at position B on the power-assisting connector 3, and position B is on the side of the rotating joint A near the upper connecting frame 1; the lumbar support 21 protrudes from the front end of the lower connecting frame 2 along the x direction; in the preset correction posture, the positional relationship between the power-assisting connector 3 and the lower connecting frame 2 includes: in the x direction, position B is located at the rear side of the rotating joint A. In this state, the force of the power-assisting connector 3 acting on the lower connecting frame 2 at the rotating joint A can generate a thrust in the x direction, so that the front end of the lumbar support 21 applies x-direction pressure to the user's lower back. Specifically, the preset correction posture includes a corresponding back straightening state.

[0031] Example 2 Based on Example 1, in this example, Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a tension sensor 71 connected between the cable 41 and the power-assisting connecting member 3, a controller (not shown) and a posture detection sensor (not shown) connected to the body trunk. The controller is connected to the driver 6, the tension sensor 71 and the posture detection sensor for communication. The tension sensor 71 is used to detect the tension of the cable 41 on the power-assisting connecting member 3, input a preset tension to the controller, and detect the tension value of the cable 41 on the power-assisting connecting member 3 according to the tension sensor 71. The controller is used to control the driver 6 to pull the power-assisting connecting member 3 within a preset range to ensure the stability of the tension. The posture detection sensor is used to detect the posture parameters of the body trunk in the sagittal plane. The controller applies a compensating tension p on the basis of controlling the driver 6 to apply a constant tension P to the power-assisting connecting member 3 according to the posture parameters input by the posture detection sensor. Then, the total tension applied by the driver 6 to the power-assisting connecting member 3 is F=P+p. In order to compensate for the gravity torque of the upper body of the user in real time, the influence of gravity on the user during the forward leaning of the trunk, especially during bending, is balanced. Specifically, p=asinθ, where a is a preset parameter, the value of a corresponds to the weight of the user's trunk, and the user can adjust the value of a through the input terminal to adjust the comfort of eliminating the self-weight to meet the user's personalized needs, and θ is the forward tilt angle of the trunk detected by the posture detection sensor. P and a can be set through the input device before use to meet the user's needs for different assistance. In this embodiment, the value of P can also be adjusted through the input terminal.
