[0040] In the present invention, the support seat 100 is used to support the hand and install the finger fixing mechanism 200, so as to simultaneously realize the restricted fixation of each finger and carry out subsequent hand rehabilitation work; each finger fixing mechanism 200 can be used to fix a finger. When in use, the pressing member 220 is first driven as far away from the support seat 100 as possible through the adjusting member 230, and then the finger is inserted into the clamping member 210. The clamping member 210 initially limits the finger to a certain spatial range, and then the pressing member 220 is driven by the adjusting member 230 to move toward the finger, so that it fits with the finger to achieve fixation of the finger, and finally the fingers of the hand are fixed on the fixing device of the present invention.

[0041] The overall structure of the present invention is simple, easy to operate, has a good finger fixation effect and high comfort, is convenient for finger rehabilitation work at any time in various occasions, can be operated with one hand, and can be worn independently. The pressing part can be positioned in different positions through the adjustment part, so that it can be adjusted according to different users and / or different hand shapes and rehabilitation requirements. The adjustment is also convenient, and can adapt to the needs of different rehabilitation environments of different people and has a wide range of adaptability.

[0042] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, the finger fixing mechanism 200 is adjustably mounted on the support base 100. This design allows the finger fixing mechanism 200 to be adjusted on the support base 100 as needed, thereby being able to fix the finger at different positions on the support base, suitable for different individuals' finger fixation, and increasing the scope of application.

[0043] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, the finger fixing mechanism 200 is mounted on the support base 100 in an adjustable position using the following structure: the support base 100 includes a palm portion 110 and a plurality of finger portions 120, and each finger fixing mechanism 200 is slidably mounted on each finger portion via a socket 211 provided on the corresponding clamping member 210. With this design, the shape of the support base 100 matches the shape of the hand, allowing the palm portion to support the patient's hand, while the finger fixing mechanism 200 is slidably mounted on the finger portion 120 of the support base via the socket 211, allowing for more precise and convenient position adjustment, thereby enabling the hand to be fixed in an appropriate preset position according to the patient's requirements.

[0044] During use, the finger fixing mechanism 200 can be adjusted to an appropriate position of the finger 120 , such as the tail of the finger, and the matching constraint between the clamping member 210 and the pressing member 220 fixes the finger on the support base 100 .

[0045] See also Figures 2 to 4 In one embodiment, the pressing member 220 is movably disposed within the clamping member 210, and the adjusting member 230 is disposed on the clamping member 210 and connected to the pressing member 220. The adjusting member 230 can drive the pressing member 220 to reciprocate within the clamping member 210. This design is simple and reasonable in structure and easy to operate.

[0046] See also Figures 2 to 4 In one embodiment, the clamp 210 is a frame-shaped structure, with its bottom end mounted on the support base 100 and its top end provided with the adjusting member 230. With this design, a receiving space is formed inside the clamp 210, into which a finger can be placed and secured by the pressing member 220.

[0047] A socket 211 is provided at the bottom end of the clamp 210, and the width of the socket 211 is adapted to the finger portion 120. The socket 211 is engaged and fixed with the finger portion 120 to maintain a small plane difference therewith, so that after the hand is fixed to the support base 100, it can better fit with the support base 100 and the finger fixing mechanism 200.

[0048] See also Figures 2 to 4 In one embodiment, the adjusting member 230 includes a screw 231 that is threadedly engaged with the screw hole 212 provided in the clamping member 210. The inner end of the screw 231 is hingedly connected to the pressing member 220. This design has a simple structure and facilitates adjustment. The position of the pressing member 220 can be adjusted by rotating the screw 231. Since the screw 231 is hingedly connected to the pressing member 220, the pressing member 220 does not need to rotate with the screw 231, thereby achieving stable pressure on the finger.

[0049] See also Figure 3 In a specific implementation, the pressing member 220 is hinged to the inner end of the screw rod 231 through a ball hinge 221. This design has a simple structure, a higher degree of freedom of articulation, and a more stable structure.

[0050] See also Figure 3 In a specific implementation, the outer end of the screw rod 231 is connected to a knob 232. With this design, the screw rod 231 can be rotated by the knob 232, which makes the operation more convenient.

[0051] See also Figure 6In another embodiment, the adjusting member 230 is a driving member 233 that can be expanded and contracted by inflation or deflation, such as a bellows-shaped bladder. This structure allows the pressing member 220 to reciprocate within the clamping member 210 simply by inflation or deflation, making operation more convenient. Specifically, the top of the driving member 233 is connected to the clamping member 210, and the bottom is connected to the pressing member 220. The driving member 233 is connected to an inflation or deflation device, such as an air pump.

[0052] See also Figures 2 to 4 In one embodiment, the clamping member 210 is provided with a slide rail 213, which is arranged along the extension and contraction direction of the adjusting member 230. The pressing member 220 is slidably connected to the clamping member 210 via the slide rail 213. With this design, the pressing member 220 and the adjusting member 230 form a screw-nut mechanism, and the rotational motion of the adjusting member 230 can be converted into a linear sliding motion of the pressing member 220, and the pressing member will not rub the finger skin.

[0053] See also Figures 2 to 4 In one embodiment, the slide rail 213 is a groove structure, and the slide rail 213 extends through the bottom surface of the clamp 210. This design facilitates the molding of the slide rail 213 and facilitates the insertion of the pressing member 220 into the clamp 210 and into the slide rail at the same time, thereby facilitating the overall manufacturing and installation requirements.

[0054] See also Figures 2 to 4 In one embodiment, the pressing member 220 is in a "door"-shaped structure, and the pressing member 220 and the bottom end of the holding member 210 enclose a finger-holding space. With this design, the pressing member 220 has a better effect of limiting the position of the finger.

[0055] Alternatively, the pressing member 220 may be in an I-shape to achieve the pressing and limiting function.

[0056] See also Figures 2 to 4 More preferably, the inner walls of the left and right sides of the holding member 210 are respectively provided with slide rails 213, and the left and right sides of the pressing member 220 are respectively slidably mounted in the corresponding slide rails 213. This design makes the structure more stable.

[0057] In one embodiment, the inner circumference of the pressing member 220 and the inner surface of the bottom end of the clamping member 210 are both provided with sponge pads to reduce the squeezing feeling on the fingers when fixing the fingers, thereby protecting the fingers and improving the comfort during fixing.

[0058] See also Figure 5In one embodiment, the support base 100 is a plastic support plate. The support plate can be bent arbitrarily under the action of external force to better adapt to the patient's hand shape, and can also be deformed according to the patient's palm movement when the patient is performing finger training, reducing the restraint on the palm and improving the wearing comfort; the support plate can adjust the bending angle according to the degree of spasm of the fingers to adapt to the finger fixation in different states and the finger rehabilitation training in different states. The bending angle of the fingers can be changed according to the user's requirements to achieve hand rehabilitation training at different angles and improve comfort; the overall structure is simple and easy to carry, suitable for a variety of people and can be used at any time in various occasions. The bending angle can be adjusted according to the degree of spasm of the fingers to adapt to finger rehabilitation training in different situations, especially to adapt to the different angles of the thumb and the other four fingers; the palm and / or wrist part of the support base can also be a desktop structure to adapt to public training occasions and improve efficiency.

[0059] In other embodiments, the support base 100 may also be other support platforms that can achieve hand support and installation of the clamping member 210.

[0060] In summary, the split-finger finger fixing device of the present invention uses the cooperation of the pressing member 220 and the clamping member 210 to fix the fingers, and combines the adjusting member 230 to accurately fix the fingers, thereby achieving a wide range of applications for different individuals and in different application situations. At the same time, a sponge cushion is arranged in the area where the split-finger limiting device is in direct contact with the fingers, which improves comfort while fixing the fingers, and the adjustment method is simple and convenient. It only needs to rotate the knob 232 on the adjusting member 230 to achieve the tightening and loosening of the pressing member 220 relative to the fingers. The support plate is adapted to the shape of the hand and can be bent with the hand, which facilitates hand movement and improves comfort. The overall structure is simple, easy to carry, can be operated with one hand, and can be worn independently. It is suitable for a variety of people and can be used at any time in a variety of occasions. It is highly practical and has a wide range of applications.
