Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of medical rehabilitation equipment, and in particular relates to a dumbbell device used for recovering arm muscle function of bedridden patients and a design method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Currently, there are no dedicated rehabilitation exercise devices on the market that integrate dumbbells with hospital beds. Bedridden patients who use traditional dumbbells for upper limb muscle exercises typically require assistance or operate independently in an unstable environment, which carries a high risk of falling and is inconvenient to use, hindering safety and the continuity of rehabilitation exercises. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The present invention aims to provide a safe and convenient dumbbell device suitable for bedridden patients to perform arm muscle function recovery training, so as to solve the problems existing in the prior art such as separation of the device from the bed, unstable operation, and potential safety hazards.
[0004] In order to solve the technical problem, the technical solution of the present invention is:
[0005] The present invention provides a dumbbell device for arm exercise for bedridden patients, comprising:
[0006] The track structure can be installed between the bed rails on both sides of the bed. The track length is adjustable, which is convenient for adaptation according to the needs of different beds or patients.
[0007] The dumbbell body is installed on the track through connecting parts. It can slide along the track but is equipped with a limit device to prevent it from sliding out, increasing operational safety.
[0008] The dumbbells are equipped with multiple detachable metal weight plates, each weighing 50g, which users can flexibly adjust according to their own recovery stage;
[0009] The dumbbell device supports two-way use and can be operated by patients in either lying or semi-sitting positions, reducing the intervention of nursing staff and improving rehabilitation autonomy.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are:
[0011] Through structural innovation, the present invention integrates the traditional dumbbell with the bed fixing device, realizing for the first time the safe and independent use of the dumbbell device in bed, which has the following advantages:
[0012] Improved safety: The dumbbells are mounted on a track system to avoid the risk of falling and ensure the personal safety of patients during exercise;
[0013] Strong adaptability: the track length and position are adjustable to suit different bed sizes and patient usage habits;
[0014] High rehabilitation efficiency: Patients can gradually increase the weight according to different rehabilitation stages and cooperate with progressive training programs to improve muscle function recovery;
[0015] Sustainable training: Support patients to exercise independently, reduce dependence on caregivers, and facilitate long-term continuous rehabilitation management. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0018] The specific implementation of the present invention is described below in conjunction with embodiments:
[0019] It should be noted that the structures, proportions, sizes, etc. shown in this specification are only used to match the contents disclosed in the specification for people familiar with this technology to understand and read, and are not used to limit the conditions under which the present invention can be implemented. Any structural modification, change in proportional relationship or adjustment of size should still fall within the scope of the technical content disclosed in the present invention without affecting the efficacy and purpose that can be achieved by the present invention.
[0020] At the same time, the terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "middle" and "one" quoted in this specification are only for the convenience of description and are not used to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. Changes or adjustments to their relative relationships should be regarded as the scope of implementation of the present invention without substantially changing the technical content.
[0021] Example 1:
[0022] A small sample test was conducted in the rehabilitation department of a tertiary hospital, in which bedridden patients after surgery were given 7 days of exercise. The patients who used the device of the present invention showed a significant improvement in the grip strength recovery index (increased by about 15%), and no risk events such as dumbbell slippage occurred during the process.
[0023] Suitable for patients in the early postoperative period:
[0024] Configure the minimum weight (such as 100g to 200g), perform 2 sets a day, 5 repetitions each set, emphasizing slow movements and symmetrical postures.
[0025] Applicable methods for chronic / elderly / hemiplegic patients:
[0026] Choose appropriate weights based on your personal recovery status, perform 2 sets / day, 5 exercises per set, and regularly evaluate your training progress.
[0027] Progressive training program:
[0028] Add a single 50g weight plate every week or two to gradually increase the intensity of your training to stimulate muscle growth and restore normal functional levels.
[0029] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the knowledge of ordinary technicians in this field without departing from the scope of the present invention.
[0030] Many other changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims.
