Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of massage and physiotherapy devices, and particularly to a head massage and physiotherapy device for prone patients. Background Art

[0002] Clinically, a massage and physiotherapy device is usually a medical device that acts on human tissues through physical stimulation to relieve pain, improve blood circulation, relax muscles, and promote recovery.

[0003] For a prone patient, the patient lies prone on the hospital bed. Usually, the patient's head will contact the hospital bed. Specifically, the patient's forehead and chin will contact the hospital bed to support the patient's head. When the patient is in the prone position for a long time, the patient's forehead and chin are usually under pressure for a long time. The pressure borne by the forehead or chin will block the local capillaries, causing tissue ischemia and hypoxia, and then causing tissue necrosis, thus pressing and injuring the patient's head. At the same time, when the patient is in the prone position, since the face is usually downward, the compressed forehead and chin are not exposed, and it is difficult for medical staff to use traditional massage and physiotherapy devices to act on the patient's forehead and chin, making it difficult for traditional massage and physiotherapy devices to be suitable for patients in the prone position, thus increasing the difficulty of massaging the compressed part of the patient's head and being unfavorable for reducing the risk of pressure injury to the compressed part of the patient's head.

[0004] Therefore, how to massage the compressed part of the head of a patient in the prone position and reduce the risk of pressure injury to the compressed part of the patient's head is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently at present. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a head massage and physiotherapy device for prone patients to reduce the difficulty of massaging the compressed part of the head of a patient in the prone position and reduce the risk of pressure injury to the compressed part of the patient's head in view of the current situation that it is difficult to massage the compressed part of the head of a patient in the prone position.

[0006] To achieve the above invention purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] A head massage and physiotherapy device for prone patients includes a base and a plurality of massage components. The massage components are arranged on the base, and the massage components are adapted to the patient's forehead or chin and support the corresponding forehead or chin.

[0008] The massage component includes a support seat and a massage pad. The support seat is annular, and the support seat includes an upper part and a lower part. The distance between the upper part and the base is farther than the distance between the lower part and the base.

[0009] The massage pad is in a sheet structure, covering the upper part. The edge of the massage pad is connected to the outer side of the support base, and the massage pad has elasticity.

[0010] An air supply component is arranged on the massage pad. The air supply component is used to traction the massage pad, so that the massage pad is tractioned and deformed relative to the support base along the central axis direction of the support base. The massage pad has an initial state, and the deformation amount of the massage pad in the initial state is the smallest.

[0011] Along the central axis direction of the support base, when the massage pad is tractioned from the initial state towards the direction close to the base, there is a distance h, and h > 0. When the massage pad is tractioned from the initial state towards the direction close to the base and the traction distance ≤ distance h, the air supply component hinders the gas from flowing through the air supply component to both sides of the massage pad, and the surface area of the massage pad increases.

[0012] When the massage pad is tractioned from the initial state towards the direction close to the base and the traction distance > distance h, the air supply component enables the gas to flow through the air supply component on both sides of the massage pad.

[0013] When there is no external force, the massage pad can recover its deformation under the action of its own elasticity.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the cross-sectional shape of the support base is circular.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, along the central axis direction of the support base, the length of the support base is length a, the length of the upper part is length b, and length b ≤ distance h ≤ length a.

[0016] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the edge area of the massage pad is connected to the lower part.

[0017] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the air supply component is located in the middle area on the massage pad.

[0018] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, in the direction from the middle area of the massage pad to the edge area of the massage pad, the thickness of the massage pad gradually increases.

[0019] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, on the upper part of the massage pad, in the direction from the outer side of the massage pad to the inner side of the massage pad, the surface roughness of the upper part of the massage pad gradually decreases.

[0020] As a preferred technical solution of the present application,

[0021] The air supply assembly includes a cylinder and a column. The cylinder is connected to the massage pad, the cylinder is sleeved outside the column, the cylinder can move along the central axial direction of the column, a first mating part is arranged on the cylinder, and a second mating part is arranged on the column;

[0022] When the massage pad is pulled from the initial state towards the base and the pulling distance ≤ distance h, the first mating part and the second mating part are misaligned, so that the cylinder is blocked;

[0023] When the massage pad is pulled from the initial state towards the base and the pulling distance > distance h, the first mating part and the second mating part cooperate, so that the cylinder is conducted, and gas can flow on both sides of the massage pad through the cylinder.

[0024] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the column is connected to the support seat through a first connecting piece, so that the column is fixed relative to the support seat.

[0025] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the cylinder is connected with a handle for the operator to operate. The operator controls the handle to move the cylinder relative to the column along the central axis direction of the column; alternatively, the cylinder is connected with a robotic arm, and the robotic arm drives the cylinder to move relative to the column along the central axis direction of the column.

[0026] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the fit between the cylinder and the column is a damping fit.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0028] 1. In the solution of the present application, by arranging the massage pad and the air supply assembly on the massage pad, during the prone position process, the forehead and chin of the patient are supported by the corresponding massage components, and the medical staff can intermittently control the air supply assembly to make the air supply assembly drive the massage pad to move and deform the massage pad;

[0029] On the one hand, when there is a gap between the compressed part on the forehead or chin of the patient and the corresponding massage component, gas can flow in this gap, so that when the massage pad is pulled from the initial state towards the base and the pulling distance is less than or equal to distance h, the air supply assembly can prevent gas from flowing through the air supply assembly to both sides of the massage pad. During this process, the surface area of the massage pad increases, and the air storage space formed between the massage pad and the compressed part of the patient's head will increase. On the basis of the gap between the massage pad and the compressed part of the patient's head, gas in the external environment will flow into the air storage space from the gap formed between the massage pad and the patient's head, thereby being able to accelerate the air circulation speed of the compressed part of the patient's head, reducing the probability of skin tissue ischemia and hypoxia, and reducing the probability of tissue necrosis;

[0030] On the other hand, although there is a gap between the compressed part on the patient's forehead or chin and the corresponding massage component, when the speed at which the air supply component pulls the massage pad is relatively fast, due to the sudden increase in the size of the air storage space formed thereby, it is easy to form a negative pressure in the air storage space, and then it can attract the compressed part on the patient's head to move towards the air storage space, making the compressed part on the patient's head contact the massage pad more closely, and improving the stability of the patient's head being supported. At the same time, as the massage pad is continuously pulled by the air supply component, when the pulling distance of the massage pad from the initial state towards the base is greater than the distance h, the air supply component allows the gas to flow on both sides of the massage pad through the air supply component. In this way, the attraction of the air storage space to the compressed part on the patient's head can be reduced to lower the contact degree between the massage pad and the compressed part on the patient's head. In this way, during the whole process of the massage pad being pulled from the initial position to a pulling distance greater than h, the relationship between the compressed part on the patient's head and the massage pad changes from having a gap to being in close contact and then to having a gap, so that the pressure received by the compressed part on the patient's head is changing. In this way, the massage component can press the skin of the compressed part of the patient's head, and under its pressing action, it can play a role in massaging the compressed part of the patient's head, thereby further promoting blood circulation in this skin area and further reducing the probability of ischemia and hypoxia in the supported skin tissue;

[0031] On the other hand, without external force, the massage pad can restore its deformation. During the process of the massage pad gradually restoring its deformation, gas can be stored between the massage pad and the patient's head, so that the stored gas can escape from the gap formed between the patient's head and the massage pad, thereby strengthening the gas circulation in the compressed part on the forehead or chin, further reducing the probability of skin ischemia and hypoxia, and then reducing the probability of tissue necrosis, thus reducing the risk of injuring the patient's head;

[0032] 2. Further, in the direction from the central region of the massage pad to the edge region of the massage pad, the thickness of the massage pad gradually increases. The thicker the part of the massage pad, the greater the resistance to deformation. During the process of pulling the massage pad to deform it, the smaller the deformation of the thicker part of the massage pad. The thicker part of the massage pad is close to the support base, and the thinner part of the massage pad is close to the air supply component. Since the part of the patient's head in contact with the massage component corresponds to the support base, the deformation of the massage pad at the support base is small, which easily makes the massage pad drive the forehead or chin to move slightly. Thus, while changing the position of the area on the forehead or chin supported by the massage pad and the support base, it can avoid large displacements of the forehead or chin to ensure the firmness of the support of the forehead or chin. In this way, it can further prevent a certain area on the forehead or chin from being under pressure for a long time, thereby reducing the risk of pressing and injuring the patient's head. At the same time, under the traction of the air supply component, since the part of the massage pad close to the air supply component is thinner, it is easy to form a larger air storage space between the massage pad and the compressed part of the patient's head, thereby further improving the air fluidity near the compressed skin and reducing the probability of skin tissue hypoxia;

[0033] 3. By making the damping fit between the cylinder and the column, after moving the cylinder relative to the column and increasing the deformation of the massage pad, by withdrawing the external force, the massage pad gradually recovers its deformation. The damping fit between the cylinder and the column can slow down the relative movement speed between the cylinder and the column, thereby prolonging the time for the massage pad to recover its deformation. During the process of the massage pad gradually recovering its deformation, the time for the stored gas to escape from the contact part formed between the patient's head and the massage pad is longer, increasing the duration of the flowing gas acting on the supported skin tissue, thereby further reducing the probability of skin tissue hypoxia.

[0043] Embodiment 1

[0044] A head massage and physiotherapy device for prone patients provided in this embodiment is shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 as shown, and includes a base 1 and a plurality of massage components 2. The massage components 2 are arranged on the base 1. The massage components 2 are adapted to the forehead or chin of the patient, and the massage components 2 are used to support the forehead or chin of the patient.

[0045] The massage component 2 includes a support base 3 and a massage pad 4. The support base 3 is annular. The support base 3 includes an upper part 5 and a lower part 6. The distance between the upper part 5 and the base 1 is greater than the distance between the lower part 6 and the base 1.

[0046] The massage pad 4 is in a sheet-like structure, the massage pad 4 covers the upper part 5, the edge area of the massage pad 4 is connected to the outside of the support base 3, and the massage pad 4 has elasticity;

[0047] An air supply component 7 is arranged on the massage pad 4. The air supply component 7 is used to pull the massage pad 4, so that the massage pad 4 is pulled and deformed relative to the support base 3 in the direction along the central axis of the support base 3. The massage pad 4 has an initial state, and the deformation amount of the massage pad 4 in the initial state is the smallest;

[0048] In the direction along the central axis of the support base 3, when the massage pad 4 is pulled from the initial state towards the direction close to the base 1, there is a distance h, and h>0. When the massage pad 4 is pulled from the initial state towards the direction close to the base 1 and the pulling distance ≤ the distance h, the air supply component 7 hinders the gas from flowing through the air supply component 7 to both sides of the massage pad 4, and the surface area of the massage pad 4 increases;

[0049] When the massage pad 4 is pulled from the initial state towards the direction close to the base 1 and the pulling distance > the distance h, the air supply component 7 enables the gas to flow through the air supply component 7 on both sides of the massage pad 4;

[0050] Under the action of no external force, the massage pad 4 can restore the deformation under its own elastic action. When the massage component 2 supports the patient's head, while the massage pad 4 restores the deformation, gas can be stored between the massage pad 4 and the patient's head, and the stored gas can escape from the gap formed between the patient's head and the massage pad 4.

[0051] In this application, by setting the massage pad 4 and arranging the air supply component 7 on the massage pad 4, during the process when the patient is in the prone position, the patient's forehead and chin are supported by the corresponding massage components 2, and the medical staff can intermittently control the air supply component 7 to make the air supply component 7 pull the massage pad 4 to move and deform the massage pad 4;

[0052] On the one hand, when there is a gap between the compressed part on the patient's forehead or chin and the corresponding massage component 2, the gas can flow in this gap. When the massage pad 4 is pulled from the initial state towards the direction close to the base 1 and the pulling distance is less than or equal to the distance h, the air supply component 7 can hinder the gas from flowing through the air supply component 7 to both sides of the massage pad 4. During this process, the surface area of the massage pad 4 increases, and the air storage space formed between the massage pad 4 and the compressed part of the patient's head will increase. On the basis of the gap between the massage pad 4 and the compressed part of the patient's head, the gas in the external environment can flow into the air storage space from the gap formed between the massage pad 4 and the patient's head, thereby being able to accelerate the air circulation speed of the compressed part of the patient's head, reducing the probability of skin tissue ischemia and hypoxia, and reducing the probability of tissue necrosis;

[0053] On the other hand, although there is a gap between the compressed area on the patient's forehead or chin and the corresponding massage component 2, when the speed at which the air supply component 7 pulls the massage pad 4 is relatively fast, due to the sudden increase in the size of the air storage space formed thereby, it is easy to form a negative pressure in the air storage space, and then it can attract the compressed area on the patient's head to move towards the air storage space, making the compressed area on the patient's head contact the massage pad 4 more closely, and improving the stability of the patient's head being supported; at the same time, as the massage pad 4 is continuously pulled by the air supply component 7, when the pulling distance of the massage pad 4 from the initial state towards the direction close to the base 1 is greater than the distance h, the air supply component 7 allows the gas to flow on both sides of the massage pad 4 through the air supply component 7. In this way, the attraction of the air storage space to the compressed area on the patient's head can be reduced, so as to reduce the contact degree between the massage pad 4 and the compressed area on the patient's head. In this way, during the whole process of the massage pad 4 being pulled from the initial position to a pulling distance greater than h, the relationship between the compressed area on the patient's head and the massage pad 4 changes from having a gap to being in close contact and then to having a gap, so that the pressure received by the compressed area on the patient's head is changing. In this way, the massage component 2 can press the skin of the compressed area on the patient's head, and under the action of the pressing, it can massage the compressed area on the patient's head, further promoting blood circulation in this skin area and further reducing the probability of ischemia and hypoxia of the supported skin tissue;

[0054] On the other hand, without external force, the massage pad 4 can recover its deformation. During the process of the massage pad 4 gradually recovering its deformation, gas can be stored between the massage pad 4 and the patient's head, so that the stored gas can escape from the gap formed between the patient's head and the massage pad 4, thereby strengthening the gas circulation in the compressed area on the forehead or chin, further reducing the probability of skin ischemia and hypoxia, and then reducing the probability of tissue necrosis, thereby reducing the risk of pressing the patient's head;

[0055] In this way, it is convenient to massage the compressed area of the head of a patient in the prone position, and at the same time, it is convenient to reduce the risk of pressure injury to the compressed area of the patient's head.

[0056] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, on the basis of the above method, further, the cross-sectional shape of the support base 3 is circular.

[0057] Further, by setting the cross-sectional shape of the support base 3 to be circular, when the patient's head contacts the massage pad 4, the area on the contacted massage pad 4 can be in an arc shape, avoiding the area on the massage component 2 for contacting the patient's head from being in a prismatic shape, thereby further reducing the damage to the patient during the process of supporting the patient's head.

[0058] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, on the basis of the above method, further, in the direction along the central axis of the support base 3, the length of the support base 3 is length a, the length of the upper part 5 is length b, and length b ≤ distance h ≤ length a.

[0059] Further, make length b less than or equal to distance h, and distance h less than or equal to length a, so as to facilitate the air supply component to pull the massage pad 4 to deform, providing a moving space for the movement of the air supply component 7 and the massage pad 4.

[0060] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, on the basis of the above method, further, the edge area of the massage pad 4 is connected to the lower part 6.

[0061] Further, make the edge area of the massage pad 4 connected to the lower part 6. When the massage component 2 supports the patient's head, when the air supply component 7 pulls the massage pad 4 to move and the massage pad 4 deforms, the massage pad 4 is in a non-connected state with the upper part 5, so that the massage pad 4 can move relative to the upper part 5, and the massage pad 4 drives the forehead or chin to move slightly relative to the support base 3 to change the position of the supported area on the patient's forehead or chin, thereby avoiding a certain area on the forehead or chin being in a pressed state for a long time, reducing the risk of skin tissue being crushed. At the same time, during the process of the massage pad 4 driving the forehead or chin to move slightly relative to the support base 3, because the massage pad 4 is pulled, the deformation of the massage pad 4 itself enables it to move relative to the forehead or chin, and further enables the massage pad 4 to massage the forehead or chin. In this way, it can further promote blood circulation in the forehead or chin area and further reduce the probability of ischemia and hypoxia of skin tissue.

[0062] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, on the basis of the above method, further, the air supply component 7 is located in the middle area of the massage pad 4.

[0063] Further, make the air supply component 7 located in the middle area of the massage pad 4. During the process of the air supply component 7 pulling the massage pad 4 to move, the pulled area on the massage pad 4 is located in the middle area of the massage pad 4, which can increase the deformation amount of the massage pad 4 being pulled, make the deformation amounts on both sides of the massage pad 4 symmetric about its central axis similar, and further improve the cooperation degree between the patient's head and the massage component 2.

[0064] Embodiment Two

[0065] On the basis of the technical solution of Embodiment One, further, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in the direction from the middle area of the massage pad 4 to the edge area of the massage pad 4, the thickness of the massage pad 4 gradually increases.

[0066] Furthermore, in the direction from the central region of the massage pad 4 to the edge region of the massage pad 4, the thickness of the massage pad 4 gradually increases. The thicker the part of the massage pad 4, the greater the resistance to deformation. During the process of pulling the massage pad 4 to deform it, the smaller the deformation of the thicker part of the massage pad 4. The thicker part of the massage pad 4 is close to the support base 3, and the thinner part of the massage pad 4 is close to the air supply component 7. Since the part of the patient's head in contact with the massage component 2 corresponds to the support base 3, the deformation of the massage pad 4 at the support base 3 is small, which easily causes the massage pad 4 to drive the forehead or chin to move slightly. Thus, while changing the position of the area on the forehead or chin supported by the massage pad 4 and the support base 3, it is possible to avoid large displacements of the forehead or chin to ensure the stability of the support of the forehead or chin. In this way, it can further prevent a certain area on the forehead or chin from being under pressure for a long time, thereby reducing the risk of pressing and injuring the patient's head. At the same time, under the traction of the air supply component 7, since the thickness of the part of the massage pad 4 close to the air supply component 7 is thinner, it is easy to form a larger air storage space between the massage pad 4 and the compressed part of the patient's head, thereby further improving the air fluidity near the compressed skin and reducing the probability of skin tissue hypoxia.

[0067] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, on the basis of the above method, further, on the upper part 5 of the massage pad 4, in the direction from the outside of the massage pad 4 to the inside of the massage pad 4, the surface roughness of the upper part 5 of the massage pad 4 gradually decreases.

[0068] Furthermore, in the direction from the outside of the massage pad 4 to the inside of the massage pad 4, the surface roughness of the upper part of the massage pad 4 gradually decreases, so that on the part of the massage pad 4 in contact with the upper part, in the direction of gradually approaching the air supply component 7, the friction between the massage pad 4 and the upper part gradually decreases. In this way, during the process of pulling the massage pad 4 to deform it, the degree of deformation of the massage pad 4 near the support base 3 is further reduced, facilitating the massage pad 4 to drive the patient's forehead or chin to move slightly.

[0069] Embodiment III

[0070] Based on the technical solution of Embodiment II, further, as shown in Figures 1 - 3 The air supply component 7 includes a cylinder 8 and a column 9. The cylinder 8 is connected to the massage pad 4. The cylinder 8 is sleeved outside the column 9. The cylinder 8 can move along the central axial direction of the column 9. A first matching part 10 is provided on the cylinder 8, and a second matching part 11 is provided on the column 9;

[0071] When the massage pad 4 is pulled in the direction close to the base 1 from the initial state and the pulling distance ≤ the distance h, the first engaging portion 10 and the second engaging portion 11 are misaligned, so that the cylinder body 8 is blocked;

[0072] When the massage pad 4 is pulled in the direction close to the base 1 from the initial state and the pulling distance is greater than the distance h, the first engaging portion 10 and the second engaging portion 11 are engaged, so that the cylinder body 8 is conducted, and gas can flow on both sides of the massage pad 4 through the cylinder body 8.

[0073] Further, by providing the cylinder body 8 and the column body 9, providing the first engaging portion 10 on the cylinder body 8, and providing the second engaging portion 11 on the column body 9, by moving the cylinder body 8 relative to the column body 9 to change the position of the first engaging portion 10 relative to the second engaging portion 11, when the first engaging portion 10 and the second engaging portion 11 are misaligned, the cylinder body 8 is in a blocked state, and it is difficult for gas to flow on both sides of the massage pad 4 through the air supply assembly 7; when the first engaging portion 10 and the second engaging portion 11 are engaged, the cylinder body 8 is in a conducted state, and at this time, gas can flow on both sides of the massage pad 4 through the cylinder body 8. In this way, when the cylinder body 8 pulls the massage pad 4, it is convenient to adjust the conduction and blocking conditions on both sides of the massage pad 4. Specifically, the first engaging portion 10 and the second engaging portion 11 can both be in a groove-like structure. When the first engaging portion 10 and the second engaging portion 11 are engaged, gas can flow through the first engaging portion 10 and the second engaging portion 11, so that the cylinder body 8 is in a conducted state.

[0074] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, on the basis of the above manner, further, the column body 9 is connected to the support base 3 through a first connecting member 12, so that the column body 9 is fixed relative to the support base 3.

[0075] Further, connecting the first connecting member 12 to the column body 9 and the support base 3 to fix the column body 9 relative to the support base 3 can improve the stability of the position where the column body 9 is located.

[0076] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, on the basis of the above manner, further, the cylinder body 8 is connected with a handle 13, and the handle 13 is used for the operator to operate. The operator controls the handle 13 to move the cylinder body 8 relative to the column body 9 along the central axis direction of the column body 9; or, the cylinder body 8 is connected with a robotic arm, and the robotic arm drives the cylinder body 8 to move relative to the column body 9 along the central axis direction of the column body 9.

[0077] Further, by providing the handle 13, it is convenient for the operator to manually control the cylinder body 8 to move the cylinder body 8 relative to the column body 9, so that the cylinder body 8 drives the massage pad 4 to move. Alternatively, by connecting the robotic arm to the cylinder body 8 and then connecting the robotic arm to the electric drive device, the electric drive device drives the robotic arm to move, so that the robotic arm drives the cylinder body 8 to move, which can further save manpower. The specific structures of the electric drive device and the robotic arm are prior arts and will not be elaborated here.

[0078] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, a damping fit is provided between the cylinder body 8 and the column body 9.

[0079] By providing a damping fit between the cylinder body 8 and the column body 9, after moving the cylinder body 8 relative to the column body 9 and increasing the deformation of the massage pad 4, by removing the external force, the massage pad 4 gradually recovers its deformation. The damping fit between the cylinder body 8 and the column body 9 can slow down the relative movement speed between the cylinder body 8 and the column body 9, thereby prolonging the time for the massage pad 4 to recover its deformation, so that during the process of the massage pad 4 gradually recovering its deformation, the time for the stored gas to escape from the contact part formed between the patient's head and the massage pad 4 is longer, increasing the duration of the flowing gas acting on the supported skin tissue, and thus further reducing the probability of skin tissue hypoxia.

[0080] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and do not limit the technical solutions described in the present invention.
