Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of finger separator technology, and more particularly to a pull-out finger separator and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] For patients with abnormal finger function due to various diseases or injuries, finger rehabilitation training and assistive fixation devices play a crucial role. Among these, a large number of patients suffer from increased finger muscle tone due to craniocerebral diseases such as stroke and traumatic brain injury. These patients experience persistent muscle tension in their fingers, resulting in limited movement. Adhesions to the finger joints following hand injuries are also common, preventing normal extension and flexion of the fingers. In addition, there are patients with finger muscle tone or flexion spasm due to other causes. All these conditions severely affect the normal function of the patient's hand and reduce their quality of life; therefore, effective rehabilitation aids are needed to improve finger condition.

[0003] Currently, there are various types of finger separators on the market, designed to help patients with abnormal finger muscle tone undergo rehabilitation training and improve finger function. Taking the finger separator disclosed in patent document CN101438994A as an example, its structure consists of five elastic straps on a flat plate to fix the five fingers.

[0004] However, in practical applications, each finger needs to be fixed individually with an elastic band, which is cumbersome and time-consuming. More seriously, in the process of fixing each finger in turn, it is easy for the fingers in front to flex and contract due to muscle tension before the fingers in the back are fixed. This makes it impossible to continuously and effectively reduce the excessive muscle tension in the fingers. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a pull-out finger separator and its usage method, which is convenient and practical for patients with abnormally high finger muscle tone.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A pull-out finger separator includes: The board body has at least one set of holes, each set having multiple holes, and the multiple holes in each set are spaced apart along the finger arrangement direction. The holes connect the upper surface and the lower surface of the board body. An elastic band, which alternately passes through the holes in the same group in a serpentine manner, forming multiple finger fixing cavities between the elastic band and the upper surface of the plate. Specifically, by pulling the free end of the elastic band, the length of the elastic band between the holes is changed, thereby adjusting the binding force of the finger fixing cavity.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, each group of holes includes alternating inner holes and outer holes, which are located on both sides in the direction of finger width. The elastic band passes through the inner hole from the lower surface to the upper surface, and the elastic band passes through the outer hole from the upper surface to the lower surface.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the number of elastic bands is two, one corresponding to the anatomical position of the proximal interphalangeal joint and the other corresponding to the anatomical position of the distal interphalangeal joint. In a preferred embodiment, the width of the elastic band is 1-2 cm.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the plate is further provided with a buckle, and the free end of the elastic band is fastened to the buckle.

[0010] A method for using a pull-out finger separator includes the following steps: The elastic band is alternately threaded through the same group of holes on the plate in a serpentine manner, forming multiple finger fixing cavities between the elastic band and the upper surface of the plate. Place the patient's finger into the corresponding finger fixation cavity; By pulling the free end of the elastic band and adjusting the length of the elastic band between the holes, the finger fixing cavity is made to generate a binding force. The free end of the elastic band is fixed to maintain the binding force of the finger fixing cavity.

[0011] Compared with existing technologies, this technical solution has the following advantages: The elastic bands alternately pass through the holes in the same group of the plate in a serpentine manner. By pulling the free end of the elastic bands, the binding force of all the finger fixing cavities can be adjusted, which is convenient and efficient.

[0012] The elastic band is designed to cover the finger joints while fully exposing the fingertips. This allows medical staff or users to monitor the blood supply to the fingertips at any time, effectively reducing the possibility of related risks caused by improper fixation.

[0013] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the pull-out finger plate of the present invention.

[0014] In the diagram: 100 plate body, 100a upper surface, 110 hole, 111 inner hole, 112 outer hole, 200 elastic band body, 300 finger fixing cavity, 400 buckle. Detailed Implementation

[0015] The following description is intended to disclose the present invention and enable those skilled in the art to implement it. The preferred embodiments described below are merely examples, and other obvious variations will occur to those skilled in the art. The basic principles of the invention defined in the following description can be applied to other embodiments, modifications, improvements, equivalents, and other technical solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention.

[0016] First Embodiment Please refer to Figure 1 An embodiment of the present invention provides a pull-out finger divider, comprising: The plate body 100 has at least one set of holes 110, and each set of holes 110 has multiple holes. The multiple holes 110 in each set are spaced apart along the finger arrangement direction. The holes 110 connect the upper surface 100a and the lower surface of the plate body 100. The elastic band 200 alternately passes through the holes 110 in the same group in a serpentine manner, forming a plurality of finger fixing cavities 300 between the elastic band 200 and the upper surface of the plate 100. Specifically, by pulling the free end of the elastic band 200, the length of the elastic band 200 between the holes 110 is changed, thereby adjusting the binding force of the finger fixing cavity 300.

[0017] When using the pull-out finger separator of this embodiment, first place the patient's palm flat on the upper surface 100a of the plate body 100, and place each finger in the corresponding finger fixing cavity 300. Then, pull the free end of the elastic band 200 to change the length of the elastic band 200 between the holes 110, thereby adjusting the binding force of the finger fixing cavity 300. Compared with the prior art method of fixing each finger individually, this greatly saves operation time and is simple and convenient to use.

[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, the plate 100 is the basic support component of the entire pull-out finger separate plate, used to support the patient's palm and to accommodate structures such as the elastic band 200. Its material can be a material with sufficient strength and lightweight, such as high-strength plastic or lightweight alloy.

[0019] The shape of the plate 100 can be designed as circular or elliptical, etc.

[0020] The plate 100 has at least one set of holes 110, and each set of holes 110 corresponds to one elastic band 200. The multiple holes 110 in each set are spaced apart along the finger arrangement direction, which refers to the direction from the thumb to the little finger.

[0021] Each set of holes 110 has alternating inner holes 111 and outer holes 112, which are spaced apart along the thumb-to-little finger direction and located on both sides of the finger width. This alternating arrangement is to accommodate the serpentine weaving of the elastic band 200.

[0022] The index, middle, ring, and little fingers each have two joints: a proximal interphalangeal joint and a distal interphalangeal joint. The proximal interphalangeal joint is closer to the palm, while the distal interphalangeal joint is further away. Therefore, there are two sets of holes 110, corresponding to the proximal and distal interphalangeal joints of each of the four fingers, to achieve fixation of different joints in each finger.

[0023] Each group of holes 110 consists of eight holes, including four inner holes 111 and four outer holes 112, corresponding to four fingers respectively. Specifically, the four fingers are respectively provided with alternating inner holes 111 and outer holes 112, and the distance between the inner holes 111 and outer holes 112 meets the insertion requirements of the corresponding width of the fingers.

[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, with two sets of holes 110, there are two elastic bands 200, one of which corresponds to the anatomical position of the proximal interphalangeal joint, and the other corresponds to the anatomical position of the distal interphalangeal joint.

[0025] The elastic band 200 has a width of 1-2 cm. This width range ensures that the elastic band 200 has sufficient strength to fix the finger, but it will not cause excessive pressure on the finger due to being too wide, thus affecting blood circulation.

[0026] The shape of the hole 110 is adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the elastic band 200, for example, the shape of the hole 110 is elongated.

[0027] The elastic band 200 is alternately threaded through the holes 110 in the same group in a serpentine manner. Specifically, the elastic band 200 passes through the proximal hole 111 from the lower surface to the upper surface 100a of the plate 100, and then through the distal hole 112 from the upper surface 100a to the lower surface, and so on, forming multiple finger fixing cavities 300 between the elastic band 200 and the upper surface of the plate 100. Through this serpentine threading method, the elastic band 200 can form a stable tension structure between the holes 110, ensuring the stability and reliability of the finger fixing cavities 300. At the same time, by pulling the free end of the elastic band 200, the binding force of all the finger fixing cavities 300 can be adjusted, which is convenient and efficient.

[0028] like Figure 1As shown, the plate 100 is also provided with a buckle 400, and the free end of the elastic band 200 is fastened to the buckle 400.

[0029] In this embodiment, the free end of the elastic band 200 passes through the buckle 400 and is secured with Velcro, ensuring that the elastic band 200 is in a suitable tension state, thereby meeting the mechanical requirements for finger fixation. The free end of the elastic band 200 is provided with a Velcro hook and loop side; after the free end of the elastic band 200 passes through the buckle 400, it is secured by the hook and loop sides.

[0030] The other end of the elastic band 200 away from the free end can be directly fixed to the upper surface 100a of the plate 100, or it can be fixed by the buckle 400.

[0031] In summary, the elastic band 200, arranged in a serpentine pattern, alternately passes through the holes 110 of the same group in the plate 100. By pulling the free end of the elastic band 200, the binding force of all the finger fixation cavities 300 can be adjusted, making operation convenient and efficient. Furthermore, the design of the elastic band 200 precisely covers the finger joint area while fully exposing the fingertip. This allows medical personnel or users to observe the blood supply to the fingertip at any time, effectively reducing the possibility of related risks caused by improper fixation.

[0032] Second Embodiment like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment illustrates the method of using the pull-out finger divider according to the first embodiment, including the following steps: S100: The elastic band 200 is alternately threaded through the holes 110 of the same group on the plate 100 in a serpentine manner, forming a plurality of finger fixing cavities 300 between the elastic band 200 and the upper surface of the plate 100. S200, Place the patient's finger into the corresponding finger fixation cavity 300; S300, Pull the free end of the elastic band 200, and adjust the length of the elastic band 200 between the holes 110 to make the finger fixing cavity 300 generate a binding force. S400, Fix the free end of the elastic band 200 to maintain the binding force of the finger fixing cavity 300.

[0033] Step S100 is the assembly process of the finger separator plate. This step is the basis for subsequent finger fixation and it is necessary to ensure the accuracy and stability of the insertion.

[0034] In step S200, care should be taken to guide the patient to correctly insert their fingers, ensuring that each finger is in the appropriate position so that a good fixation effect can be achieved subsequently.

[0035] In step S300, the elastic band 200 is pulled according to the patient's actual condition and rehabilitation needs, while the changes in the finger fixation cavity 300 are observed to ensure that the binding force is appropriate.

[0036] In step S400, the free end of the elastic band 200 is passed through the buckle 400 and secured with Velcro. Ensuring the Velcro is firmly attached prevents the free end of the elastic band 200 from loosening, thereby ensuring the binding force of the finger fixation cavity 300 remains stable and provides continuous and stable fixation support for finger rehabilitation treatment.

[0037] The embodiments described above are only used to illustrate the technical ideas and features of the present invention. Their purpose is to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of the present invention and implement it accordingly. The scope of patent application of the present invention should not be limited by these embodiments. That is, any equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit disclosed in the present invention still fall within the patent scope of the present invention.
