Detailed Description of the Invention

[0016] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0017] Refer to the attached Figure 1 , in Figure 1 , the a - direction points to the front view and the b - direction points to the right - hand view. The above views are only for understanding the solution.

[0018] Please refer to Figures 1-9 As shown, the present invention provides a mechanical anti-shake tableware for assisting hand tremor patients to eat, comprising an inner hollow spherical body 1, an arc-shaped connecting opening 11 is opened on the outer side of the inner hollow spherical body 1, and tableware 12 is arranged on the outer side of the arc-shaped connecting opening 11; The interior of the hollow sphere 1 is provided with a reverse swinging shock-absorbing mechanism for keeping the tableware 12 relatively stable when picking up food; Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the shock absorbing mechanism enables the tableware 12 to maintain a horizontal and stable state during the shaking of the hollow spherical body 1.

[0019] The outer side of the inner hollow sphere 1 is symmetrically slidably provided with a thrust mechanism for keeping the tableware 12 horizontally symmetrical when the patient applies force to the tableware 12, and the thrust mechanism is movably connected with the shock absorbing mechanism; Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, when the thrust mechanism applies the clamping force to the auxiliary main rod 27, the stability of the tableware 12 itself will not be affected.

[0020] A locking mechanism is provided in an arc-shaped sliding manner inside the top of the inner hollow spherical body 1 to assist the patient in holding the inner hollow spherical body 1 tightly. The locking mechanism is fixedly installed with the shock absorbing mechanism.

[0021] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, the patient's fingers are fixed to the outside of the inner hollow spherical body 1 by a locking mechanism, so that the patient can still firmly hold the inner hollow spherical body 1 when shaking.

[0022] In the above scheme, when in use, the tableware 12 is clamped at one end of the shock-absorbing mechanism, the patient holds the inner hollow spherical body 1, and then swings it left and right around the axis of the forearm, and the swing amplitude is much larger than the patient's own shaking amplitude. During the patient's swinging, with the cooperation of the shock-absorbing mechanism and the locking mechanism, the patient's fingers are firmly locked on the outside of the inner hollow spherical body 1, so that the patient can hold the inner hollow spherical body 1 tightly during the shaking process. When the patient needs to apply a force to the tableware 12 to clamp the food, the cooperation of the shock-absorbing mechanism and the thrust mechanism allows the tableware 12 to move smoothly when subjected to force, so that the patient can also smoothly push the tableware 12 on both sides to accurately clamp the food during the shaking process. Therefore, the patient can easily pick up the food when picking up the food, which not only improves their dining experience, but also brings pleasure and convenience.

[0023] Specifically, the shock-absorbing mechanism includes a fixed ring 2, which is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the hollow spherical body 1 in an inclined state. A rotating rod 21 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the fixed ring 2. One end of the rotating rod 21 close to the center of the circle is rotatably connected to a stable disc 22. A first spherical body clamping groove is opened at the center of the bottom of the stable disc 22. A first adjusting spherical body 23 is movably clamped in the first spherical body clamping groove. A counterweight 24 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the first adjusting spherical body 23. Movable clamping grooves 25 are symmetrically opened at the top of the stable disc 22. A moving clamping block 26 is slidably clamped in the movable clamping groove 25. The top end of the moving clamping block 26 is fixedly installed with a main power-assisting rod 27 in a horizontal state. The left end of the main power-assisting rod 27 extends out of the arc-shaped communication port 11. A cylindrical connecting head 28 is fixedly installed at the left end of the main power-assisting rod 27. The cylindrical connecting head 28 is movably clamped with the tableware 12.

[0024] The shock-absorbing mechanism further includes a fixed block 5, which is fixedly installed on the front side of the main power-assisting rod 27. A power-assisting plate 51 is fixedly installed at the front end of the fixed block 5. An activity round hole 52 is opened at the center of the front side of the power-assisting plate 51. A return spring 53 is fixedly installed on the rear side of the power-assisting plate 51. A cylindrical limiting rod 54 is movably clamped in the activity round hole 52. The return spring 53 is sleeved on the outer side of the cylindrical limiting rod 54.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown in the figures, in the above solution, after the patient tightly holds the hollow spherical body 1, the tableware 12 is clamped at one end of the shock-absorbing mechanism, and the patient's fingers and the hollow spherical body 1 are fixed together through the locking mechanism. At this time, when the patient shakes, the counterweight 24 generates a reverse force due to its own gravity to neutralize the shaking force generated by the fixed ring 2 on the stable disc 22, so that when the hollow spherical body 1 shakes, the stable disc 22 is always kept stable through the cooperation of the counterweight 24 and the rotating rod 21 and other structures, so that the tableware 12 is always kept in a stable state by the shock-absorbing mechanism when the patient shakes. At the same time, when the patient applies a food-picking force to the thrust mechanism, the thrust mechanism applies a force to the two main power-assisting rods 27, and does not affect the stability of the main power-assisting rods 27 when applying the force. The two main power-assisting rods 27 drive the two tablewares 12 to pick up food through their corresponding cylindrical connecting heads 28. At the same time, when the two main power-assisting rods 27 move towards the middle, the return spring 53 is compressed through structures such as the fixed block 5 and the power-assisting plate 51. During the compression process of the return spring 53, the cylindrical limiting rod 54 restricts it to prevent the return spring 53 from bending. At the same time, the cylindrical limiting rod 54 increases the stability of the two main power-assisting rods 27 during movement through the cooperation of structures such as the activity round hole 52 and the fixed block 5. When the patient releases the pressing on the thrust mechanism, the return spring 53 drives structures such as the main power-assisting rod 27 to reset through the fixed block 5 and other structures.

[0026] Specifically, the thrust mechanism includes an arc-shaped card slot 3, which is opened on the outer side of the hollow sphere 1 and located on both sides of the arc-shaped communication port 11. The arc-shaped card slot 3 is communicated with the arc-shaped communication port 11. An arc-shaped block 31 is slidably clamped in the arc-shaped card slot 3. A thrust block 32 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the arc-shaped block 31. A stable main board 33 is slidably clamped in the arc-shaped communication port 11. One end of the arc-shaped block 31 is fixedly installed with the stable main board 33. A second spherical card slot is opened on the front side of the assisting main rod 27. A second adjusting sphere 34 is movably clamped in the second spherical card slot. A bidirectional telescopic rod 35 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the second adjusting sphere 34. A third spherical card slot is opened on the side of the stable main board 33 away from the arc-shaped block 31. A third adjusting sphere 36 is movably clamped in the third spherical card slot. One end of the bidirectional telescopic rod 35 away from the second adjusting sphere 34 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the third adjusting sphere 36.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, in the above solution, after the patient holds the hollow sphere 1 tightly and fixes the patient's fingers through the locking mechanism, the patient's thumb and middle finger respectively press the thrust blocks 32 on both sides. Since the ends of the thumb and middle finger close to the palm are fixed, there is still a certain degree of flexibility in the front and back. With the cooperation of the thrust block 32, the tableware 12 can be driven to complete the action of picking up vegetables. After the thrust block 32 receives the pressing force, it drives the arc-shaped block 31 to move towards the position close to the assisting main rod 27 under the restriction of the arc-shaped card slot 3. The arc-shaped block 31 pushes the stable main board 33 to move towards the position close to the assisting main rod 27. When the bidirectional telescopic rod 35 reaches the shortest stroke during the movement of the stable main board 33 towards the assisting main rod 27, the stable main board 33, with the cooperation of the second adjusting sphere 34 and the third adjusting sphere 36, pushes the assisting main rod 27 towards the middle position of the arc-shaped communication port 11 through the bidirectional telescopic rod 35. During the process that structures such as the thrust block 32 and the stable main board 33 shake synchronously with the hollow sphere 1, the stable main board 33 only exerts a horizontal force on the assisting main rod 27 through structures such as the bidirectional telescopic rod 35, thus not affecting the stability of the assisting main rod 27 itself, so that when the thrust mechanism exerts a force for picking up vegetables on the assisting main rod 27, it will not affect the stability of the tableware 12 itself.

[0028] Specifically, the locking mechanism includes a movable arc groove 4, which is opened inside the top end of the hollow spherical body 1. An arc-shaped clamping plate 41 is slidably clamped in the movable arc groove 4. Three communicating vertical card slots 42 are arc-shapedly opened on the outer side of the hollow spherical body 1. Three locking openings 43 are arc-shapedly opened on the outer side of the arc-shaped clamping plate 41. A reverse U-shaped flexible belt 44 is movably clamped in the communicating vertical card slot 42. The bottom end of the reverse U-shaped flexible belt 44 extends into the inner side of the arc-shaped clamping plate 41 through the locking opening 43. Column-shaped leading heads 45 are fixedly installed at both ends of the reverse U-shaped flexible belt 44. Placing holes are opened on both sides of the inner wall of the communicating vertical card slot 42 close to the movable arc groove 4. Plasticity limiting blocks 46 are fixedly installed on the inner walls of the placing holes. Arc-shaped clamping blocks 47 are fixedly installed on both the inner and outer sides of the reverse U-shaped flexible belt 44. An arc-shaped connecting port 48 is opened at the top end inside the hollow spherical body 1, and the arc-shaped connecting port 48 communicates with the movable arc groove 4. A stable connecting plate 49 is fixedly installed in the middle of the top of the stable disc 22, and the top end of the stable connecting plate 49 is fixedly installed with the inner wall of the arc-shaped clamping plate 41.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, in the above solution, when the patient's thumb, index finger, and middle finger are respectively inserted into the corresponding reverse U-shaped flexible belts 44, the patient holds the hollow spherical body 1 with the palm of the hand, and then swings left and right around the axis of the forearm, and the swing amplitude should be much larger than the patient's own jitter amplitude. When the patient drives the hollow spherical body 1 to jitter, the shock absorption mechanism drives the arc-shaped clamping plate 41 to remain stationary through the stable connecting plate 49, so that the hollow spherical body 1 drives the reverse U-shaped flexible belt 44 to jitter through the communicating vertical card slot 42. When the reverse U-shaped flexible belt 44 jitters, through the restriction of the column-shaped leading head 45 by the locking opening 43, the outer reverse U-shaped flexible belt 44 enters the communicating vertical card slot 42 and relatively moves towards the position of the column-shaped leading head 45 and enters the movable arc groove 4. The reverse U-shaped flexible belt 44 drives the arc-shaped clamping block 47 to relatively move into the movable arc groove 4. When the arc-shaped clamping block 47 passes through the plasticity limiting block 46, the plasticity limiting block 46 deforms and allows the arc-shaped clamping block 47 to pass through. In this way, the reverse U-shaped flexible belt 44 is pulled into the inside of the hollow spherical body 1 and restricted, so as to complete the fixation of the patient's fingers. The patient's fingers are fixed on the outer side of the hollow spherical body 1 through the locking mechanism, so that the patient can still firmly hold the hollow spherical body 1 when jittering.

[0030] Specifically, the bottom end of the hollow spherical body 1 is designed as a plane and is adhered with a plane plate.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in the above solution, the hollow spherical body 1 can be placed stably when not in use.

[0032] Specifically, the shape of the tableware 12 can be various types such as chopsticks, spoons or forks.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, in the above solution, the device can be applied to dining tools of this shape, increasing the scope of application of the device.

[0034] Specifically, the inner wall of the first spherical card slot is provided with a first arc-shaped limiting card slot, and a first arc-shaped limiting block is fixedly installed on the outer side of the first adjusting sphere 23. The first arc-shaped limiting card slot and the first arc-shaped limiting block are movably clamped.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 7 As shown, in the above solution, the counterweight 24 is restricted by the first arc-shaped limiting card slot and the first arc-shaped limiting block, so that the counterweight 24 can only swing in the same plane, and with the cooperation of structures such as the first adjusting sphere 23, when the patient bends to pick up vegetables, the counterweight 24 is always in a vertical state.

[0036] Specifically, the inner wall of the second spherical card slot is provided with a second arc-shaped limiting card slot, and a second arc-shaped limiting block is fixedly installed on the outer side of the second adjusting sphere 34. The second arc-shaped limiting card slot and the second arc-shaped limiting block are movably clamped. The inner wall of the third spherical card slot is provided with a third arc-shaped limiting card slot, and a third arc-shaped limiting block is fixedly installed on the outer side of the third adjusting sphere 36. The third arc-shaped limiting card slot and the third arc-shaped limiting block are movably clamped.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 9 As shown, in the above solution, the second adjusting sphere 34 is restricted by the second arc-shaped limiting card slot and the second arc-shaped limiting block, so that the second adjusting sphere 34 can only swing in the same plane. The third adjusting sphere 36 is restricted by the third arc-shaped limiting card slot and the third arc-shaped limiting block, so that the third adjusting sphere 36 can only swing in the same plane, so that when the stable main board 33 applies force to the assisting main rod 27 during shaking, it does not affect the smoothness of the assisting main rod 27.

[0038] Specifically, the arc length of the movable arc-shaped groove 4 is greater than the arc length of the arc-shaped clamping plate 41.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 3 As shown, in the above solution, the movable arc-shaped groove 4 does not contact the two ends of the arc-shaped clamping plate 41 during shaking, and the arc-shaped clamping plate 41 can maintain a stable state.

[0040] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit them.
