[0032] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the implementation methods of this application clearer, the technical solutions in the implementation methods of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the implementation methods of this application. Obviously, the described implementation methods are part of the implementation methods of this application, not all of the implementation methods. Based on the implementation methods in this application, all other implementation methods obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0033] Example

[0034] like Figure 1-Figure 8 As shown, the hip joint anti-fracture buffer shorts according to the embodiment of the present application include a shorts body 1, which is composed of a waistband portion 11, a trouser leg portion 12 and a binding portion 13. A control mechanism 3 is arranged on the waistband portion 11, and the control mechanism 3 includes a compressed gas tank 32 and an acceleration sensor 33. The acceleration sensor 33 is fixedly installed in a control box 31 for detecting the usage status. One end of the compressed gas tank 32 is connected to a side buffer mechanism 2 and a rear buffer mechanism 5. The side buffer mechanism 2 and the rear buffer mechanism 5 are respectively arranged on the side and the back of the trouser leg portion 12. The side buffer mechanism 2 and the rear buffer mechanism 5 both include a net bag 21 and an air bag 22. The net bag 21 is fixedly connected to the trouser leg portion 12, and the air bag 22 is detachably arranged in the net bag 21.

[0035] Specifically, the side buffer mechanism 2 and the rear buffer mechanism 5 have the same structure, and only the specifications and the setting positions are different. The side buffer mechanism 2 is set from the tip of the greater trochanter to the middle of the thigh, and the rear buffer mechanism 5 is set from the ischial tuberosity to the middle of the thigh. By setting the side buffer mechanism 2 and the rear buffer mechanism 5, the ischial tuberosity, femoral neck and femoral trochanter that are at the point of force application can be cushioned and protected when the elderly fall, thereby preventing fractures in these parts when the elderly fall, which can greatly reduce the mortality rate of the elderly, reduce the medical and nursing costs incurred thereby, save medical resources, and have high social use value.

[0036] By setting a binding part 13 at the bottom of the trouser leg 12, the binding part 13 is made of elastic material and has a certain binding force on the elderly's legs, which can prevent the trouser leg 12 from wrinkling or moving upward, and keep the side buffer mechanism 2 and the rear buffer mechanism 5 in contact with the elderly's legs.

[0037] There are two side buffer mechanisms 2, which are respectively located on the outer sides of the two trouser legs 12, for buffering and protecting the sides of the thighs. There are two rear buffer mechanisms 5, which are respectively located behind the two trouser legs 12, for buffering and protecting the backs of the thighs.

[0038] By providing protection on the sides and the back respectively, multi-directional protection for the elderly's hip joints can be achieved, thereby improving the protection effect.

[0039] A snap-on assembly is provided on both sides of the net bag 21, and the snap-on assembly includes a first strap 23 and a second strap 24. The ends of the first strap 23 and the second strap 24 that are far away from each other are fixedly connected to the upper and lower ends of the net bag 21, respectively, and the ends of the first strap 23 and the second strap 24 that are close to each other are fixedly connected with a sub-buckle 26 and a female buckle 25, respectively. The sub-buckle 26 is snap-connected with the female buckle 25, and the airbag 22 is arranged inside the net bag 21.

[0040] In the specific setting, the net bag 21 is a mesh structure with a light weight but can effectively fix the airbag 22. The first strap 23 and the second strap 24 are respectively connected to the upper and lower ends of the net bag 21, and both are made of elastic material. The mother buckle 25 and the child buckle 26 are buckled together. By opening the mother buckle 25 and the child buckle 26 and stretching the upper part of the net bag 21, the airbag 22 can be placed in the net bag 21, and then the mother buckle 25 and the child buckle 26 are buckled together to fix the airbag 22 in the net bag 21. By arranging snap-on components on both sides of the net bag 21, the airbag 22 can be effectively prevented from moving out.

[0041] Through the above arrangement, the airbag 22 can be conveniently fixed or disassembled, and the shorts body 1 can be conveniently cleaned, thereby improving the convenience of use.

[0042] An accommodating groove 221 is provided on the outer side surface of the airbag 22. There are two accommodating grooves 221, which correspond to the positions of the mother buckle 25 and the child buckle 26 on both sides respectively. The mother buckle 25 and the child buckle 26 are squeezed and snapped into the corresponding accommodating grooves 221. A number of support strips 222 are equidistantly provided on the inner wall of the airbag 22 away from the trouser leg 12.

[0043] Specifically, the support strip 222 is made of a flexible belt support material, which can support the airbag 22 and keep it in an expanded state, making it easy to put into the net bag 21, and also ensuring that it is quickly and evenly expanded after inflation, providing uniform and effective cushioning protection for the elderly's legs.

[0044] When an elderly person falls, the mother buckle 25 and the child buckle 26 will be impacted and squeeze the airbag 22 inward, causing damage to the mother buckle 25 and the child buckle 26 or uneven distribution of gas inside the airbag 22. Therefore, a accommodating groove 221 is provided on the airbag 22 to receive the squeezed mother buckle 25 and the child buckle 26, avoid damage to the mother buckle 25 and the child buckle 26, and ensure uniform distribution of gas inside the airbag 22.

[0045] A fixing belt 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the control box 31 . The fixing belt 4 is sleeved on the waist belt portion 11 . The compressed gas tank 32 is fixedly installed in the control box 31 . A control panel 34 is also fixedly installed in the control box 31 .

[0046] Specifically, the fixing belt 4 is made of elastic material, which can fix the control mechanism 3 on the belt part 11 or remove it from the belt part 11. One end of the compressed gas tank 32 is connected to the airbags 22 on the two trouser legs 12 through an air pipe. A number of straps can be set on the shorts body 1 to tie and fix the air pipe, which is also convenient for subsequent disassembly.

[0047] The acceleration sensor 33 is used to detect the acceleration change of the object. When the object falls, the acceleration will change dramatically in a short time. The acceleration sensor 33 can keenly capture this change and convert it into an electrical signal. The control board 34 is provided with a battery and a microcontroller. The microcontroller serves as the core control unit of the entire system and receives the signal from the acceleration sensor 33. When the acceleration sensor 33 detects a fall event and sends a corresponding signal to the microcontroller, the microcontroller will immediately turn on the acceleration sensor 33. The acceleration sensor 33 fills the airbag 22 with enough air in a short time to make it expand rapidly to achieve a protective effect. The battery unit provides a stable power supply for the entire system to ensure that each component can work normally when needed.

[0048] In the absence of an accident, the airbag 22 does not expand, thereby improving the comfort of daily use.

[0049] In summary, the working principle of the hip joint fracture prevention cushioning shorts according to the embodiment of the present invention is as follows:

[0050] Under normal conditions, the system is in standby mode, and the acceleration sensor 33 continuously monitors acceleration. When a fall occurs, the acceleration sensor 33 will detect a sudden change in acceleration. When this change exceeds a preset threshold, the acceleration sensor 33 will generate a trigger signal and send the signal to the microcontroller. After receiving the trigger signal from the acceleration sensor 33, the microcontroller opens the inflation valve of the compressed gas tank 32, and the compressed air in the compressed gas tank 32 is quickly filled into the airbag 22 through the inflation valve and the air pipe. After being filled with sufficient compressed air, the airbag 22 expands rapidly to form a buffering air cushion around the thigh of the elderly. When a collision occurs with an external object, the airbag 22 can effectively absorb and disperse the collision energy, reduce the impact force on the protected object, and thus play a protective role.

[0051] The electronic components and models used in the present invention can be determined according to actual needs.

[0052] The above description is only an embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application.
