Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of toe auxiliary spreaders, and more specifically, to a toe auxiliary spreader for patients with arteriosclerosis obliterans of the lower extremities. Background Technique

[0002] Arteriosclerosis obliterans of the lower extremities is a common peripheral vascular disease. In patients, the arterial walls of the lower extremities thicken, harden, the lumen narrows or even occludes, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the lower extremities. Such patients often have blood circulation disorders in the toes, and are prone to symptoms such as coldness, numbness, and pain in the toes. In severe cases, it may even cause toe ulcers and gangrene.

[0003] To improve toe blood circulation and promote recovery, it is often necessary to appropriately spread the patient's toes to increase the air circulation between the toes, relieve local pressure, and assist in treatment. However, there is currently a lack of a specially designed, convenient and effective toe auxiliary spreader for patients with arteriosclerosis obliterans of the lower extremities on the market. Some traditional simple spreading devices, such as simple sponge pads, have poor spreading effects, a large contact area with the skin, are not conducive to ensuring air circulation, and are prone to deformation after long-term use, making it difficult to meet the personalized needs and treatment requirements of patients. In view of this, we have proposed a toe auxiliary spreader for patients with arteriosclerosis obliterans of the lower extremities. Summary of the Invention

[0025] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , the present invention provides a technical solution: a toe auxiliary spreader for patients with lower limb arteriosclerosis obliterans, including a bottom silicone beam 1. The bottom silicone beam 1 can be made of silicone material. The silicone material is relatively soft, which can improve the comfort during wearing. The bottom silicone beam 1 fits the contour of the sole of the foot and can provide comfortable support for the patient;

[0027] Specifically, a plurality of toe insertion bumps 2 are integrally formed on the upper surface of the bottom silicone beam 1. A toe insertion gap 25 is provided between two adjacent toe insertion bumps 2, so that the patient's toes can be conveniently and firmly inserted therein, realizing effective spreading of the toes, increasing the distance between the toes, improving air circulation, reducing local pressure, and promoting blood circulation; a central heat dissipation hole 20 that is connected to the outside on both the left and right sides is provided inside the toe insertion bump 2. A plurality of heat dissipation grooves 21 are provided on both the left and right side surfaces of the toe insertion bump 2. Both the front and rear ends of the heat dissipation groove 21 are connected to the outside, so that air can form convection inside the toe insertion bump 2, greatly enhancing the heat dissipation effect, keeping the toes dry, reducing the risk of infection caused by dampness, and contributing to the healthy recovery of the patient's toes;

[0028] Specifically, an upper cylindrical protrusion 22 is integrally formed at the top of the toe-catching bump 2. An arc-shaped guide through-hole 23 that communicates with the outside on both the left and right sides is provided inside the upper cylindrical protrusion 22. A central guide through-hole 24 that communicates with the outside on both the front and back sides is provided inside the upper cylindrical protrusion 22. The arc-shaped guide through-hole 23 is arranged along the horizontal direction, and the central guide through-hole 24 is arranged along the vertical direction. The central guide through-hole 24 communicates with the arc-shaped guide through-hole 23. The cross-section of the heat dissipation groove 21 is semi-circular. The central heat dissipation hole 20 is arranged along the height direction of the toe-catching bump 2, optimizing the air circulation path, enabling air to flow more smoothly in all directions, strengthening the heat dissipation function, and also reducing the overall weight of the spreader to a certain extent and improving the wearing comfort.

[0029] In this embodiment, widening bands 3 are provided on both of the two toe-catching bumps 2 located at the ends. The widening band 3 is composed of a central base band 34 provided at the central position and side breathable cotton bands 35 provided on the upper and lower sides of the central base band 34. The central base band 34 and the side breathable cotton bands 35 are of an integrally formed structure; a hook-and-loop fastener 30 is fixedly installed on the end band body of one of the widening bands 3, and a loop-and-loop fastener 31 is fixedly installed on the end band body of the other widening band 3. The hook-and-loop fastener 30 and the loop-and-loop fastener 31 are adhesively engaged with each other, enabling the spreader to be firmly fixed on the patient's foot, preventing displacement during the patient's movement, and ensuring the stability of the spreading effect. At the same time, the design of the side breathable cotton bands 35 increases the breathability of the contact part with the foot and improves the wearing comfort of the patient.

[0030] Specifically, a narrow side band 32 is fixedly installed at the other end of the widening band 3, and a clamping post 33 is fixedly installed at the end of the narrow side band 32. The clamping post 33 is clamped in the heat dissipation groove 21 on one side of the toe-catching gap 25; the size of the clamping post 33 is adapted to the size of the heat dissipation groove 21, and the rod bodies at both ends of the clamping post 33 are clamped in the corresponding heat dissipation grooves 21, facilitating the fixed installation and disassembly operations of the narrow side band 32 and achieving the effect of being able to be selectively installed according to needs.

[0031] Furthermore, the length of the clamping post 33 is less than the height of the central heat dissipation hole 20, and the length of the narrow side band 32 is greater than the depth of the central heat dissipation hole 20, which is conducive to the clamping post 33 passing through along the central heat dissipation hole 20 and being clamped in the heat dissipation groove 21 on the other side.

[0032] When the toe-assisted spreader for patients with lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans of the present invention is in use, medical staff or patients place the bottom silicone beam 1 of the device against the sole of the foot, align the toes with the toe-catching gap 25 between the toe-catching bumps 2, and gently insert the toes to complete the assembly operation.

[0033] In addition, install the broadband extension 3 as needed. When installing the broadband extension 3, insert the card post 33 into the center heat dissipation hole 20 on the convex block 2 along the end toe and then lock it in the heat dissipation groove 21 on the other side to complete the installation of the broadband extension 3. Then, use the adhesion of the hook-and-loop fastener 30 with a fuzzy surface and the hook-and-loop fastener 31 with a prickly surface to fix the cover device at a suitable position on the foot to ensure firmness and no looseness.

[0034] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and the descriptions in the specification are only preferred examples of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention will have various changes and improvements, and all these changes and improvements fall within the scope of the present invention claimed. The scope of protection of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
