Detailed Embodiments

[0026] The present invention will be specifically introduced below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0027] Embodiment 1

[0028] An orthopedic nursing fixing bracket, as Figures 1 - 5 shown, includes a fixing frame 1 and a fixing plate 2; the fixing plate 2 is fixedly connected to the fixing frame 1;

[0029] It also includes an arc-shaped slide rail 3, a connecting plate 4, a support block 5, a lifting block 6 and an auxiliary component; the arc-shaped slide rail 3 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 2; two connecting plates 4 are slidably connected to the arc-shaped slide rail 3; a support block 5 is installed between adjacent connecting plates 4; two left-right symmetrical lifting blocks 6 are slidably arranged on the arc-shaped slide rail 3; and an auxiliary component is installed on the fixed plate 2.

[0030] The auxiliary components include a connecting rope 101 and a connecting rod 102; two left-right symmetrical connecting ropes 101 are inserted into the fixed plate 2, and one end of each connecting rope 101 passes through the fixed plate 2 and is fixedly connected to the upper side of the adjacent lifting block 6; a limiting portion 10101 is provided at the other end of each connecting rope 101; four left-right symmetrical connecting rods 102 are slidably connected to the fixed plate 2, and each connecting rod 102 passes through the fixed plate 2; each connecting rod 102 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the adjacent lifting block 6.

[0031] The support block 5 and the adjacent connecting plate 4 are arranged to be rotatably connected.

[0032] The supporting block 5 is made of a soft and elastic material.

[0033] It also includes an elastic member 201 ; the elastic member 201 is fixedly connected between adjacent connecting plates 4 , and the elastic member 201 is a spring.

[0034] The outer surface of each connecting plate 4 is wrapped with a soft skin-friendly material layer, thereby reducing the friction between the patient's legs and the connecting plate 4 when in contact, thereby improving the patient's comfort.

[0035] A gripping portion 10102 is provided on the lower side of each connecting rope 101, and the gripping portion 10102 is configured in a spherical shape.

[0036] A movable end 1001 is slidably provided on the fixed frame 1 ; a plurality of limiting holes 1002 are provided on the fixed frame 1 along its height direction; two left-right symmetrical plug rods 1003 are plugged into the movable end 1001 , and the plug rods 1003 are plugged into and matched with the limiting holes 1002 .

[0037] The working steps of this embodiment are:

[0038] In the early stage of a fracture, in order to reduce swelling, promote blood return, and maintain relative stability of the fractured part, it is usually necessary to suspend the patient's fractured leg. The existing suspension method simply uses gauze to suspend upward around the patient's ankle position, so that the patient's fractured leg is suspended in the air. However, when the patient needs to use the toilet, the patient needs to untie the gauze suspending the leg. After using the toilet, it is necessary to re-tie it. The operation process is not only inconvenient, but also easy to pull the patient's fractured leg, aggravating the pain of the affected limb and causing discomfort. At the same time, only a thin piece of gauze is used to suspend and support the bottom side of the patient's leg. If this continues for a long time, the compression of the gauze on the leg may affect nerve conduction, resulting in numbness and tingling sensations in the patient's leg.

[0039] To solve the above problems, when performing the suspension operation after bandaging the patient's fractured leg, position the fixing frame 1 at the end of the bed facing the affected limb. Adjust the connecting plate 4 so that the support block 5 is aligned with the fractured part. Then the doctor slowly lifts the patient's fractured leg and gently places the patient's leg on the support block 5, and appropriately adjusts the placement posture of the leg to make the patient comfortable. Thus, the suspension of the patient's leg is achieved. By setting the support block 5 to be made of a soft and elastic material, the compression of the support block 5 on the patient's leg is reduced, and the comfort of the patient's leg is improved. At the same time, since the support block 5 and the adjacent connecting plate 4 are set to be rotatably connected, when the patient's leg is placed on the support block 5, the support block 5 can adapt to rotate according to the placement posture of the patient's leg, so that the support block 5 fits better with the patient's leg, further improving the comfort of the patient's leg.

[0040] At the same time, when the patient needs to use the toilet, since the support block 5 is located between the two connecting plates 4, the family member only needs to gently lift the patient's leg and pull it out to the side away from the support block 5. After using the toilet, just repeat the above steps. The operation is simple and convenient, and it is not easy to pull the patient's leg, so it will not additionally increase the pain of the patient's leg and improve the comfort of the patient.

[0041] Furthermore, when there is no one to attend to the patient, if the patient needs to get out of bed to use the toilet by themselves, at this time, the patient rotates axially with the hip joint as the fulcrum, thus gently driving the fractured leg to move to one side. At the same time, during the patient's rotation, the leg resting on the support block 5 will drive the connecting plate 4 to slide gently on the arc-shaped slide rail 3. With the help of the arc-shaped slide rail 3, the connecting plate 4 and the support block 5, the fractured leg is moved to one side of the bed. If the patient's left leg is injured, the patient turns to the right so that the patient's right leg touches the ground first. Similarly, if the patient's right leg is injured, the patient turns to the left so that the patient's left leg touches the ground first. When both connecting plates 4 are located behind the lifting block 6 of the arc-shaped slide rail 3, since the lifting block 6 is slidably connected to the arc-shaped slide rail 3, under the gravity of the patient's leg, the entire lifting block 6 will drive the connecting plate 4, the support block 5 and the patient's leg to move downward together. At the same time, one end of the connecting rope 101 connected to the lifting block 6 is pulled, and the limiting part 10101 at the other end will gradually move upward until the limiting part 10101 touches the fixing plate 2 and is blocked and stops moving. At this time, the patient's leg gradually changes from an upward inclined state to a straight state. Then, the patient focuses the center of gravity on the uninjured leg, then holds the edge of the bed and stands up, and slowly withdraws the leg from between the two connecting plates 4.

[0042] When the patient places the leg on the support block 5, the gravity of the leg will cause the support block 5 to move downward, driving the two connecting plates 4 to slide towards each other on the arc-shaped slide rail 3, thereby compressing the elastic member 201 and deforming it. Therefore, when the patient gradually withdraws the leg from the support block 5, the pressing force of the leg on the support block 5 gradually decreases, and under the rebounding action of the elastic member 201, the upper ends of the two connecting plates 4 are pushed away from each other, thereby driving the support block 5 to gradually move upward. At this time, the two connecting plates 4 are in an inverted V shape, thereby increasing the space between the two connecting plates 4, enabling the two connecting plates 4 to adaptively adjust the space for the patient's leg, avoiding collision with the connecting plates 4 during the process of the patient withdrawing the leg, reducing the stimulation to the fractured part, and thus better protecting the patient's leg.

[0043] After the patient finishes using the toilet, place the legs between the two connecting plates 4 in an inverted V shape. Then, slowly let the legs rest on the support block 5. After the support block 5 is pressed by the legs and moves downward, the upper ends of the two connecting plates 4 move closer to each other, and the elastic member 201 is compressed and returns to the initial state. Then, the patient sits on the edge of the bed and slowly pulls down the gripping portion 10102 of the connecting rope 101. By setting the gripping portion 10102 as a sphere, it is convenient for the patient to grip. At this time, under the pulling action of the patient, the connecting rope 101 will make the limiting portion 10101 gradually move away from the fixing plate 2 and move downward. At the same time, the end of the connecting rope 101 connected to the lifting block 6 will drive the lifting block 6 to move upward. At this time, under the limiting action of the connecting rod 102, the lifting block 6 slides vertically upward along the connecting rod 102, thus avoiding swinging during the movement of the lifting block 6, which may cause the lifting block 6 to fail to align smoothly with the lifting block 6 and affect the normal use of the device. Until the lifting block 6 is successfully snapped back onto the arc-shaped slide rail 3, the patient appropriately adjusts the posture, rotates around the buttocks as the center to the side of the fixing frame 1 until the two connecting plates 4 are far away from the lifting block 6, then releases the gripping portion 10102 of the connecting rope 101. Then, adjust the posture and slowly rotate the body so that the fractured leg slides to the initial position under the action of the arc-shaped slide rail 3 and the connecting plate 4. Thus, even if there is no one to look after the patient beside, the patient can get out of bed by himself, so there is no need for the patient to wait for the nurse, greatly improving the convenience of the patient's use.

[0044] It is also considered that for different degrees of injury, the hanging height of the patient's leg will change correspondingly. To improve the adaptability of the device, before hanging, the doctor raises or lowers the mobile end 1001 according to the patient's condition, thereby changing the heights of the fixing plate 2, the arc-shaped slide rail 3, the connecting plate 4, and the support block 5. When adjusted to the appropriate position and the limiting hole 1002 on the fixing frame 1 is aligned with the insertion rod 1003, insert the insertion rod 1003 into the corresponding limiting hole 1002, thereby realizing the limiting fixation of the mobile end 1001.

[0045] Embodiment 2

[0046] Based on Embodiment 1, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 6 shown, it further includes a connecting shaft 301; the support block 5 and the adjacent connecting plate 4 are set to be detachably connected; a connecting shaft 301 is fixedly connected to each connecting plate 4, and the support block 5 is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 4 through the connecting shaft 301.

[0047] It further includes a fixing block 401 and a limiting rod 402; two symmetrically arranged fixing blocks 401 are fixedly connected to the mobile end 1001 of the fixing frame 1; a limiting rod 402 is slidably connected to each fixing block 401; a limiting groove with the same diameter as the limiting rod 402 is opened on the upper side of each connecting plate 4.

[0048] The working process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0049] It is also considered that the bones of infants and young children are not fully developed and are relatively fragile. Their leg suspension method is different from that of adults. Infants and young children usually use triangular towels, suspension slings or special wire frames to suspend their lower limbs upward to ensure that the buttocks are off the bed and maintain the traction effect. To improve the adaptability of the device, at this time, the nurse only needs to remove the support block 5 from the two connecting plates 4, and then hang the wound dressing gauze on the connecting shaft 301, as Figure 6 shown, so as to improve the adaptability of the device.

[0050] When the nurse changes the dressing for the fractured leg of the patient, the patient usually feels nervous or uncomfortable, resulting in the leg may subconsciously move and avoid during the dressing change process, which will not only reduce the dressing change efficiency, but also increase the pain and discomfort of the patient's leg. To solve the above problems, when the nurse needs to change the dressing for the patient's leg, at this time, the nurse only needs to insert the two limit rods 402 into the limit grooves on the upper side of the adjacent connecting plates 4 to limit and fix the connecting plates 4 with the limit rods 402, so as to avoid the patient's leg shaking or changing angles randomly during the dressing change process, improve the nurse's dressing change efficiency, and reduce the discomfort of the patient at the same time.

[0051] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
