Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of nursing technology, and in particular to a postoperative care belt for breast tumors. Background Technology

[0002] After breast tumor surgery, a drainage tube is required to drain blood and fluid from the surgical area, preventing fluid accumulation that could lead to infection or hinder wound healing. Postoperative care belts for breast tumors serve to secure the drainage tube, reduce local traction pain, protect the surgical incision, and help maintain chest wall stability, thus promoting postoperative recovery. Proper selection and use of the care belt can effectively reduce the risk of drainage tube dislodgement or displacement, improving patient comfort after surgery.

[0003] A Chinese utility model patent for a breast therapy and care belt specifically for women, application number CN202021211934.7, describes a belt body and a heating wire. The belt body has a double-hump structure and is fitted with Velcro. The belt body has a layered structure, consisting of a protective layer, a heat insulation layer, and an inner lining layer from the outside in. A heating element is located between the heat insulation layer and the inner lining layer at the hump of the belt body. A mesh pocket is located on the inner lining layer inside the heating element, with an opening on one side. A medicine pack is placed inside the mesh pocket. This utility model can accelerate blood circulation in the chest through heat application, and combined with external application of traditional Chinese medicine, it can unblock the meridians in the chest, effectively preventing breast diseases.

[0004] As can be seen, the edge of the nursing band comes into contact with the skin surface. When using a drainage tube, the edge of the nursing band can press against the tube, which is a problem that needs to be considered during postoperative use. This could lead to blockage of the drainage tube, poor drainage, or even skin discomfort or impaired wound healing due to local pressure. In particular, when the lower edge of the band is brought out, the drainage tube is more easily compressed due to gravity. Therefore, a nursing band for breast tumor surgery has been proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of the prior art by proposing a postoperative care belt for breast tumors.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: a postoperative care belt for breast tumors, comprising a protective belt, wherein two protective belts are provided, and an inflation mechanism is provided between the two protective belts. An extension belt is connected to the lower side of the protective belt, a soft belt is fixedly connected to the front surface of the extension belt, a rigid plate is fixedly connected to the upper side of the front surface of the soft belt, a sliding opening is provided through the front surface of the rigid plate, a connecting seat is slidably connected to the inner side of the sliding opening, an elastic sheet is provided at the rear end of the connecting seat, a pulling mechanism is provided on both sides of the front surface of the elastic sheet, and a binding mechanism is provided on the side of the two protective belts that are far apart.

[0007] Preferably, the inflation mechanism includes branch pipes fixedly connected to the adjacent sides of the two protective straps. A main pipe is fixedly connected to the adjacent ends of the two branch pipes. A screw cap is threaded onto the front end of the main pipe, and a fixing seat is fixedly connected to the rear end of the main pipe. Both ends of the fixing seat are fixedly connected to the ends of a rigid plate. The main pipe and branch pipes are integrally molded from silicone material, allowing gas flow while providing a flexible connection between the two protective straps, preventing damage due to excessive rigidity. The fixing seat is made of medical-grade flexible fabric, such as a spandex-cotton blend, for the flexible connection between the two protective straps.

[0008] Preferably, a guide rail is fixedly connected to the rear surface of the rigid plate, and a slider is slidably fitted onto the outer surface of the guide rail. The front end of the slider is fixedly connected to the rear end of the connecting seat, and the rear end of the slider is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the elastic sheet. The slider slides through the inner side of the sliding opening. The guide rail serves as a guide, limiting the slider to slide smoothly along the inner side of the sliding opening, thereby adjusting the position of the elastic sheet.

[0009] Preferably, the pulling mechanism includes a reinforcing column fixedly connected to the lower surface of the elastic sheet. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to the front end of the reinforcing column. The front end of the connecting rod passes through the inner side of the sliding opening and is fixedly connected to a connecting plate. A lever plate is fixedly connected to the side of the connecting plates on both sides that are close to each other. The lever plates on both sides allow the user to press with their fingers to move the connecting plates on both sides closer to each other.

[0010] Preferably, a locking block is fixedly connected to the rear surface of the connecting plate, and a guide groove is formed at the corner of the front surface of the connecting seat. An inner groove is formed on the inner wall of the guide groove. The locking block slides into the inner side of the guide groove. Guide balls are fixedly connected to the upper and lower corners of the locking block, and the guide balls slide into the inner side of the inner groove. When the connecting plates on both sides approach each other, the locking block slides along the inner side of the guide groove, while the guide balls slide along the inner side of the inner groove, thus guiding the connecting plates and preventing misalignment during pressing, which could cause them to deviate from the front of the connecting seat.

[0011] Preferably, the inner side of the protective strip has a main inner cavity, and the inner side of the extension strip has an extension inner cavity, which is connected to the main inner cavity. The inner walls of the main and extension inner cavities are made of medical-grade thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) film. The protective strip is made of a spandex-cotton blend (cotton content ≥70%), which is soft, breathable, sweat-absorbent, and hypoallergenic, suitable for contact with the skin, and is wrapped around the surface of the main and extension inner cavities formed by the medical-grade thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) film during manufacturing.

[0012] Preferably, the inner wall of the extended cavity is fixedly connected with a plurality of inner protruding strips, and the two rear ends of the elastic sheet are respectively fixedly connected with contact feet. The inner protruding strips are made of medical-grade thermoplastic polyurethane material, which is relatively soft and prevents discomfort to the user.

[0013] Preferably, a first strap and a second strap are fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the two protective straps, respectively. The inner wall of the first strap is fixedly connected to a hook and loop fastener, and the rear surface of the second strap is fixedly connected to a hook and loop hook. The hook and loop fastener is made of fine, soft fibers in a looped pile pattern, and is made of a blend of nylon and polyester. The hook and loop hook is composed of stiffer, barbed elastic fibers, and can be made of nylon, offering relatively good softness and adhesion.

[0014] Preferably, each of the two protective straps has a hanging strap fixedly connected to its upper edge, and one end of each hanging strap is fixedly connected to the upper edge of the first and second straps, respectively. During use, the two hanging straps are worn on the shoulder area to assist in fixation, distribute pressure, and adapt to the body shape, preventing the entire protective strap from shifting or causing excessive pressure on the affected area.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. This invention uses a finger to press two levers, causing two connecting plates to move closer together. The locking block slides along the inner side of the guide groove, and the guide ball slides along the inner side of the inner groove, ensuring that the connecting plates on both sides rotate and move closer to each other. The connecting rod rotates and moves, causing the two rear ends of the elastic sheet to lift up and no longer press against the surface of the soft strip. Then, the connecting seat can slide along the surface of the hard plate, and the slider will slide along the surface of the guide rail and simultaneously slide along the inner side of the sliding opening, changing the position of the elastic sheet. After releasing the finger, the elastic sheet returns to its original position. Subsequently, the drainage tube can be led out from behind the elastic sheet, which can avoid the problem of the drainage tube being squeezed and ensure drainage.

[0017] 2. This invention is convenient to wear, and the position of the drainage tube can be limited during wear to prevent the drainage tube from shifting. It is tied to the back with the first and second straps, and the hook and loop parts of the Velcro are attached to each other. After removing the cap, air is inflated into the main tube, and air is inflated into the protective band through the two branch tubes. After being fully inflated, the main inner cavity and the extension inner cavity are inflated, which can better fit the user's chest and provide better protection. Due to the presence of the inner convex strip, when the extension inner cavity is inflated, the surface of the extension band is divided into convex sections. Together with the action of the contact feet, it has a good limiting effect on the rear end of the elastic sheet, preventing the elastic sheet from easily sliding and shifting during later use.

[0028] The following description is intended to disclose the 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.

[0029] like Figures 1-9The diagram illustrates a postoperative care band for breast tumors, comprising two protective bands 1, with an inflation mechanism between them. An extension band 7 is connected to the lower edge of each protective band 1. A soft band 31 is fixedly connected to the front surface of the extension band 7, and a rigid plate 8 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the front surface of the soft band 31. A sliding opening 9 is formed through the front surface of the rigid plate 8, and a connecting seat 12 is slidably connected to the inner side of the sliding opening 9. An elastic sheet 14 is located at the rear end of the connecting seat 12. Pulling mechanisms are located on both sides of the front surface of the elastic sheet 14, and a binding mechanism is located on the side of the two protective bands 1 that is furthest apart. The rigid plate 8 is made of medical-grade polypropylene to avoid issues related to plasticizers and odor. The elastic sheet 14 is made of medical-grade austenitic stainless steel, which is relatively low in cost, and its strength and elastic modulus meet the usage requirements.

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the inflation mechanism includes branch pipes 27 fixedly connected to the adjacent sides of the two protective straps 1. A main pipe 28 is fixedly connected to the adjacent ends of the two branch pipes 27. A screw cap 29 is threaded onto the front end of the main pipe 28, and a fixing seat 30 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the main pipe 28. Both ends of the fixing seat 30 are fixedly connected to the ends of the rigid plate 8. The main pipe 28 and branch pipes 27 are integrally molded from silicone material, allowing gas flow while providing a flexible connection between the two protective straps 1, preventing damage due to excessive rigidity. The fixing seat 30 is made of medical-grade flexible fabric, such as a spandex-cotton blend, for the flexible connection between the two protective straps 1.

[0031] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, a guide rail 10 is fixedly connected to the rear surface of the rigid plate 8. A slider 13 is slidably mounted on the outer surface of the guide rail 10. The front end of the slider 13 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the connecting seat 12, and the rear end of the slider 13 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the elastic sheet 14. The slider 13 slides through the inner side of the sliding opening 9. The guide rail 10 serves as a guide, limiting the slider 13 to slide smoothly along the inner side of the sliding opening 9, thereby adjusting the position of the elastic sheet 14. Figure 3 and Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the drainage tube 32 protruding.

[0032] like Figure 6 As shown, the pulling mechanism includes a reinforcing column 17 fixedly connected to the lower surface of the elastic sheet 14. A connecting rod 16 is fixedly connected to the front end of the reinforcing column 17. The front end of the connecting rod 16 passes through the inner side of the sliding opening 9 and is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 18. A lever 19 is fixedly connected to one of the adjacent sides of the two connecting plates 18. The levers 19 allow the user to press with their fingers to move the two connecting plates 18 closer together.

[0033] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, a locking block 22 is fixedly connected to the rear surface of the connecting plate 18, and a guide groove 20 is provided at the corner of the front surface of the connecting seat 12. An inner groove 21 is provided on the inner wall of the guide groove 20. The locking block 22 slides into the inner side of the guide groove 20. Guide balls 23 are fixedly connected to the upper and lower corners of the locking block 22, and the guide balls 23 slide into the inner side of the inner groove 21. When the connecting plates 18 on both sides approach each other, the locking block 22 slides along the inner side of the guide groove 20, and at the same time, the guide balls 23 slide along the inner side of the inner groove 21, which plays a guiding role and prevents the connecting plates 18 from being misaligned when pressed, thereby deviating from the front of the connecting seat 12.

[0034] like Figure 8 , Figure 9 As shown, the inner side of the protective band 1 has a main inner cavity 24, and the inner side of the extension band 7 has an extension inner cavity 25, which is connected to the main inner cavity 24. The inner walls of the main inner cavity 24 and the extension inner cavity 25 are made of medical-grade thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) film. The material of the protective band 1 is a spandex-cotton blend (cotton content ≥70%), which is soft, breathable, sweat-absorbent, and hypoallergenic, suitable for contact with the skin, and is wrapped around the surface of the main inner cavity 24 and the extension inner cavity 25 formed by the medical-grade thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) film during manufacturing.

[0035] Several protruding strips 26 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the extended inner cavity 25, and contact feet 15 are fixedly connected to the two rear ends of the elastic sheet 14. The protruding strips 26 are made of medical-grade thermoplastic polyurethane material, which is relatively soft and prevents discomfort to the user.

[0036] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the two protective straps 1 are fixedly connected to the opposite sides with a first strap 3 and a second strap 4, respectively. The inner wall of the first strap 3 is fixedly connected to a hook and loop fastener 6, and the back surface of the second strap 4 is fixedly connected to a hook and loop hook 5. The hook and loop fastener 6 has a surface of fine, soft fibers in a looped pile shape and is made of a blend of nylon and polyester. The hook and loop hook 5 is composed of stiffer, barbed elastic fibers and can be made of nylon, offering relatively good softness and adhesion.

[0037] Two protective straps 1 are fixedly connected to the upper edges of each of the two straps 2. One end of each strap 2 is fixedly connected to the upper edge of the first strap 3 and the second strap 4, respectively. During use, the two straps 2 are hung on the shoulder area to help fix and distribute pressure, adapt to the body shape, and prevent the entire protective strap from shifting or causing excessive pressure on the local area.

[0038] During use, pressing the two levers 19 with your fingers brings the two connecting plates 18 closer together. The locking block 22 slides along the inside of the guide groove 20, and the guide ball 23 slides along the inside of the inner groove 21, ensuring that the connecting plates 18 on both sides rotate and move closer together. The connecting rod 16 rotates and moves, causing the two rear ends of the elastic sheet 14 to lift up and no longer press against the surface of the soft strip 31. Then, the connecting seat 12 can be slid along the surface of the hard plate 8, and the slider 13 will slide along the surface of the guide rail 10 and at the same time slide along the inside of the sliding opening 9, changing the position of the elastic sheet 14. After releasing, the elastic sheet 14 returns to its original position. Subsequently, the drainage tube 32 can be led out from the back of the elastic sheet 14, which can avoid the problem of the drainage tube 32 being squeezed and ensure the drainage.

[0039] In use, the user straps the first strap 3 and the second strap 4 to their back, and the hook and loop parts 5 and 6 of the Velcro are attached to each other. After removing the cap 29, the user inflates the main tube 28 and inflates the protective strap 1 through the two branch tubes 27. Once inflated, the main inner cavity 24 and the extended inner cavity 25 are inflated, which can better fit the user's chest and provide better protection. Due to the presence of the inner protrusion 26, when the extended inner cavity 25 is inflated, the inflated part of the surface of the extended strap 7 is separated into protrusions. Together with the action of the contact foot 15, it provides a good limiting effect on the rear end of the elastic piece 14, preventing the elastic piece 14 from sliding and shifting during later use.

[0040] 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 to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely principles of the invention. Various changes and modifications can be made to the invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed invention.
