Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of inflatable occipitomandibular band traction devices, and specifically refers to an inflatable occipitomandibular band traction device. Background Art

[0002] Occipitomandibular band traction is a common method for treating cervical spondylosis and cervical-related diseases, and is applicable to cervical fractures and dislocations, cervical disc herniations, and nerve root type cervical spondylosis. The traction method is as follows: use the occipitomandibular band to hold the outer side of the mandible and the external occipital protuberance, separate the two upper ends of the occipitomandibular band, maintain a distance slightly wider than the head, and traction towards the top of the head. The occipitomandibular band is connected to a traction frame, and the traction frame is connected to a weight (or counterweight) through a traction rope. The traction rope is wound around a pulley, the pulley is arranged on a pulley frame, and the pulley frame is installed on the head of the bed. Inpatients usually choose continuous traction in the supine position, and the traction weight does not exceed 5 kilograms, usually 2-3 kilograms.

[0003] For patients undergoing occipitomandibular band traction, in order to achieve the treatment effect, they need to lie in bed for long-term traction. However, due to the ordinary design of the existing occipitomandibular band and the long treatment time, the patient's mandibular part is in a long-term compressed state. Clinical observations have found that many patients have skin pressure injuries in the mandibular part, and many patients also remove the traction device by themselves due to poor comfort. To solve this problem, improved occipitomandibular bands have begun to appear. For example, the scheme CN217723839U discloses a bed-type jaw-occipital band traction device for cervical spine stretching. By adding a breathable latex pad inside the jaw-occipital band, the force on the auricle and mandible can be buffered, and at the same time, it is breathable and heat-dissipating, with high comfort. However, the breathable latex pad cannot be adjusted and moved, can only be fixed and buffered once, and can only breathe passively, and cannot form an active air flow on the skin, so the comfort and the function of breathable heat dissipation are poor.

[0004] The jaw-occipital band is pulled together with both ends facing backward, which will wrap around both sides of the face and even the ears, easily causing discomfort and even pressure sores. In addition, the traction force of the weight on the patient will form a vertical pressure on the bed body, bringing great pressure and a sense of compression to the patient's back of the head. When the traction time is long, the patient's back of the head will be very uncomfortable, easily causing skin pressure injuries. The patient is likely to swing the head to change the bearing point to relieve the discomfort, and such a situation will have an adverse effect on the traction treatment effect.

[0005] Most of the existing occipitomandibular band traction devices are installed and adjusted by medical staff or others to help the patient. During the treatment process, the patient cannot operate the occipitomandibular band traction device, and the head can hardly move. The treatment process becomes a boring and rigid process, with a poor experience.

[0006] For patients, during the long-term occipitomental band traction treatment, it is particularly necessary to take care of the patient's usage experience. In order to overcome various discomforts during the usage process and ensure the treatment effect of the patient, it is necessary to optimize and improve the existing occipitomental band traction device. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an inflatable occipitomental band traction device to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0008] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0009] An inflatable occipitomental band traction device of the present invention includes a mandibular band, an occipital bone band and a traction frame. Both ends of the mandibular band and the occipital bone band are fixedly connected integrally. Both ends of the occipital bone band are provided with first hanging rings, and the first hanging rings are hooked and connected to the traction frame. A gap is formed between the mandibular band and the occipital bone band. Its characteristics are that the mandibular band is provided with an airbag pad, the airbag pad contacts the mandible and both sides of the cheeks, and the airbag pad is connected to an inflation ball one through a soft air pipe one;

[0010] The traction frame includes an arched rod. Both ends of the arched rod are provided with a plurality of hooks for hooking the first hanging rings. In the middle of the side of the arched rod facing away from the hooks, there is a V-shaped rod for connecting a traction rope.

[0011] As an improvement, it further includes a pillow air cushion. Elastic bands are provided at both ends of the pillow air cushion, and the elastic bands are connected to the ends of the occipital bone band.

[0012] As an improvement, the pillow air cushion is connected to an inflation ball two through a soft air pipe two.

[0013] As an improvement, the pillow air cushion is provided with an arc-shaped groove, and the elastic bands are connected to the two outer ends of the arc-shaped groove.

[0014] As an improvement, two arc-shaped partitions are provided inside the pillow air cushion. The two arc-shaped partitions divide the pillow air cushion into upper, middle and lower three-layer chambers. The two arc-shaped partitions are provided with ventilation holes at the arc-shaped bottom, and the two ventilation holes are misaligned on the horizontal plane. The soft air pipe two is connected to the lower layer chamber of the pillow air cushion.

[0015] As an improvement, the airbag pad is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes, and the ventilation holes penetrate through the mandibular band.

[0016] As an improvement, a leather bag is provided on the back of the mandibular band facing the airbag pad. The inside of the leather bag is communicated with the ventilation holes, and the leather bag is connected to an inflation ball three through a soft air pipe three.

[0017] As an improvement, a plurality of air leakage holes are provided on both the mandibular band and the occipital bone band.

[0018] As an improvement, second hanging rings are provided at both outer ends of the airbag pads of the mandibular strap, and the hooks can hook the second hanging rings.

[0019] The advantages of the present invention compared with the prior art are as follows: The hook on the upper part of the arched rod hooks the first hanging ring, and the hook at the bottom hooks the second hanging ring. The mandibular strap does not wrap around the face and ears, avoiding pressure sores and being breathable and comfortable.

[0020] The patient can pick up and squeeze the inflation balloon 1 to adjust the inflation amount of the airbag pad to an appropriate level, so that the mandible and the cheeks on both sides feel comfortable. Intermittently operating the inflation balloon 1 to inflate and deflate the airbag pad during the treatment process can also play a massage role and is also an operation for decompression and relaxation.

[0021] The patient can pick up and squeeze the inflation balloon 2 to adjust the inflation amount of the pillow airbag, so that the headrest has an appropriate height. The pillow airbag forms a soft support and contact with the back of the patient's head, and can also prevent the patient from shaking the head from side to side, so that the patient's head can maintain a correct posture during the treatment process. Intermittently operating the inflation balloon 2 to inflate and deflate the pillow airbag during the treatment process can also play a role in moving the head and is also an operation for decompression and relaxation.

[0022] The patient can pick up and squeeze the inflation balloon 3. The pressure air flow passes through each ventilation hole and forces the airbag pad to open and contact the skin to a certain extent, actively ventilating and breathing the skin, greatly increasing the ventilation and heat dissipation of the compressed skin. Intermittently operating the inflation balloon 3 during the treatment process is also an operation for decompression and relaxation.

[0023] For this inflatable pillow and mandibular strap traction device, the airbag pads and the pillow airbag provide soft support and contact for the mandibular part and the back of the head. During the treatment process, the patient can operate this device by himself, squeeze the inflation balloons respectively to massage the mandibular part, move the head, and form an active air flow on the mandibular skin to increase the ventilation and heat dissipation effect. Using the inflation balloons can also achieve the purpose of decompression and relaxation. The patient has a high degree of comfort and a good experience during the treatment process, ensuring the treatment effect. The two sides of the mandibular strap are pulled apart, and there are no pressure sores on the face and ears, which are breathable and comfortable. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0039] This embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the attached Figures 1 to 7 drawings for an inflatable occipitomental band traction device.

[0040] An inflatable occipitomental band traction device in this embodiment includes a mandibular band 1, an occipital band 2 and a traction frame. Both ends of the mandibular band 1 and the occipital band 2 are fixedly connected integrally. First hanging rings 4 are provided at both ends of the occipital band 2, and the first hanging rings 4 are hooked to the traction frame. A notch 3 is formed between the mandibular band 1 and the occipital band 2. The bodies of the mandibular band 1 and the occipital band 2 adopt conventional designs and are fixedly connected integrally. An airbag pad 5 is provided on the mandibular band 1, and the airbag pad 5 is fixedly attached to the mandibular part of the mandibular band 1. The airbag pad 5 contacts the mandible and both sides of the cheeks. The airbag pad 5 is connected to an inflation ball 7 through a soft air tube 6; the airbag pad 5 contacting the skin can avoid pressure sores and increase comfort. The inflation ball 7 is a sphygmomanometer ball (with an air release valve) and can inflate and deflate the airbag pad 5. The inflation ball 7 is convenient for the patient to operate and adjust by himself.

[0041] The traction frame includes an arched rod 8, the length of the arched rod 8 is slightly longer than the width of an adult's head. A number of hooks 9 are provided at both ends of the arched rod 8. Adding hooks is beneficial to adjusting the hooking width of the two first hanging rings 4 to better adapt to the head, and further facilitating the adjustment of comfort. The hooks 9 are used to hook the first hanging rings 4, and the first hanging rings 4 are hung at both ends of the arched rod 8 to prevent the mandibular strap 1 and the occipital strap 2 from surrounding the head and causing discomfort. In the middle of the side of the arched rod 8 facing away from the hooks 9, there is a V-shaped rod 10, and the V-shaped rod 10 is used to connect the traction rope 11. During actual use, the traction rope 11 can be directly tied to the tip of the V-shaped rod 10.

[0042] It further includes a pillow air cushion 12. Elastic bands 13 are provided at both ends of the pillow air cushion 12, and the elastic bands 13 are connected to the ends of the occipital strap 2. The pillow air cushion 12 is padded at the bottom of the back of the head, playing a role of soft support and increasing comfort.

[0043] The pillow air cushion 12 is connected to a balloon pump two 15 through a soft air tube two 14. The balloon pump one 7 uses a sphygmomanometer balloon (with an air release valve), which is convenient for the patient to operate and adjust the height of the pillow air cushion 12 by himself.

[0044] The pillow air cushion 12 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 16, and the elastic bands 13 are connected to the two outer ends of the arc-shaped groove 16. The arc-shaped groove 16 conforms to the ergonomic design, enabling the pillow air cushion 12 to better fit the back of the head. Moreover, the two ends of the arc-shaped groove 16 are located on both sides of the bottom end of the back of the head, playing a role in blocking the left and right swaying of the head.

[0045] Two arc-shaped partitions 17 are provided inside the pillow air cushion 12. The two arc-shaped partitions 17 divide the pillow air cushion 12 into upper, middle and lower three-layer chambers. The arc-shaped partitions 17 play a role in strengthening the structure, making the pillow air cushion 12 not easily deformed and the arc-shaped groove 16 not easily flattened. Both of the two arc-shaped partitions 17 are provided with ventilation holes 18 at the arc-shaped bottom, and the two ventilation holes 18 are staggered on the horizontal plane. The soft air tube two 14 is connected to the lower chamber of the pillow air cushion 12. During use, the back of the head directly presses on the bottom of the arc-shaped groove 16, so that the ventilation hole 18 of the lower arc-shaped partition 17 is pressed down by the upper arc-shaped partition 17 above it to form a seal for it, and the ventilation hole 18 of the upper arc-shaped partition 17 is pressed down by the arc-shaped groove 16 inside it above to form a seal for it. When the balloon pump two 15 is pinched to inflate, the lower chamber is filled with air first. After being full of air, the air enters the middle chamber from the ventilation hole 18 of the lower arc-shaped partition 17. After the middle chamber is full of air, the air enters the upper chamber from the ventilation hole 18 of the upper arc-shaped partition 17, realizing the layer-by-layer inflation and deflation of the pillow air cushion 12. The design of the arc-shaped partition 17 combined with the ventilation holes 18 enables the pillow air cushion 12 to maintain a relatively "firm" concave shape even when not fully inflated.

[0046] The airbag cushion 5 is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 19 which penetrate through the mandibular strap 1. The ventilation holes 19 are isolated from the inside of the airbag cushion 5, enabling the airbag cushion 5 to be breathable, allowing the skin to come into contact with air and increasing comfort.

[0047] On the side of the mandibular strap 1 facing away from the airbag cushion 5, there is an air bladder 20. The inside of the air bladder 20 is communicated with the ventilation holes 19, and the air bladder 20 is connected to a balloon pump three 22 through a soft air tube three 21. The balloon pump three 22 adopts a sphygmomanometer balloon (with a deflation valve), which is convenient for the patient to operate independently for active ventilation and is also a kind of decompression.

[0048] The mandibular strap 1 and the occipital strap 2 are both provided with a plurality of air leakage holes 23, which are more breathable.

[0049] At both outer ends of the airbag cushion 5 of the mandibular strap 1, there are second hanging rings 24, and the hook 9 can hook the second hanging rings 24. The hook 9 at the bottom of the arched rod 8 hooks the second hanging rings 24 and pulls them outward towards the face, preventing the mandibular strap 1 from wrapping around the face and ears and avoiding pressure sores, further improving comfort.

[0050] During specific implementation, the patient lies in bed. The mandibular strap 1 and the occipital strap 2 are respectively placed around the outside of the patient's mandible (chin) and the corresponding position of the occipital bone at the back of the head. The pillow air cushion 12 is placed under the back of the head. Then, pull it up so that the width of the two first hanging rings 4 is slightly larger than the width of the head. Then, use the hook 9 at the upper part of the arched rod 8 to hook the first hanging ring 4, and the hook 9 at the bottom to hook the second hanging ring 24. The mandibular strap 1 does not wrap around the face and ears, avoiding pressure sores. The traction frame is connected to a weight through a traction rope 11. The connection method between the traction rope 11 and the weight is an existing technology, so it will not be described in detail.

[0051] After installation, the balloon pump one 7, the balloon pump two 15, and the balloon pump three 22 are all placed beside the patient. The patient can pick up and squeeze the balloon pump one 7 to adjust the inflation amount of the airbag cushion 5 to an appropriate level, making the patient feel comfortable at the mandible and both sides of the cheeks. Intermittently operating the balloon pump one 7 to inflate and deflate the airbag cushion 5 during the treatment process can also play a massage role and is also an operation for decompression and relaxation.

[0052] The patient can pick up and squeeze the balloon pump two 15 to adjust the inflation amount of the pillow air cushion 12, making the height of the head pillow appropriate. The pillow air cushion 12 forms a soft support and contact with the back of the patient's head, and can also prevent the patient from shaking the head from side to side, enabling the patient's head to maintain a correct posture during the treatment process. Intermittently operating the balloon pump two 15 to inflate and deflate the pillow air cushion 12 during the treatment process can also play a role in moving the head and is also an operation for decompression and relaxation.

[0053] The patient can pick up and squeeze the inflation balloon III 22 by hand. The pressured air flow passes through each ventilation hole 19 and forces the airbag pad 5 to open and contact the skin to a certain extent, actively ventilating and breathing through the skin, greatly increasing the air permeability and heat dissipation of the compressed skin. Intermittently operating the inflation balloon III 22 during the treatment process is also an operation for decompression and relaxation.

[0054] The above description of the present invention and its implementation manners is not restrictive. The actual protection scope is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be covered within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
