[0026] The features and performance of the home-use spinal traction device and system of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments.

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this application provides a home-use spinal traction device, which includes a base 100, a support beam 110, an angle adjustment mechanism 120, a foot pedal 210, a pedal adjustment mechanism 220, two arc-shaped lumbar support plates 310, a lumbar clamping mechanism, a cervical sling 400, a cervical traction mechanism, and a controller. The support beam 110 is hinged to the top of the base 100 at its bottom, allowing rotation along a vertical plane. The angle adjustment mechanism 120 is an electric push rod with both ends hinged to the base 100 and the support beam 110, respectively. When the electric push rod extends or retracts, it drives the support beam 110 to rotate along a vertical plane. The reclining board 200 is connected to the side of the support beam 110 away from the angle adjustment mechanism 120 to support the user's body. There is a gap 130 between the reclining board 200 and the support beam 110. The reclining board 200 has through holes 260 on both sides. The foot pedal 210 is L-shaped, with one end fitting against the reclining board 200 near the angle adjustment mechanism 120, and the other end located below the reclining board 200 and perpendicular to it. The foot pedal 210 is located at one end below the reclining board 200 and is used to support the user's feet. The pedal adjustment mechanism 220 is a pedal adjustment electric push rod with both ends hinged to the base 100 and the foot pedal 210 respectively. When the pedal adjustment electric push rod extends or retracts, it drives the foot pedal 210 to move along the length direction of the reclining board 200. A connecting groove 230 extending along the length direction of the reclining board 200 is opened in the middle of the end of the foot pedal 210 that is in contact with the reclining board 200. The extension rod of the pedal adjustment electric push rod is hinged to the bottom wall of the connecting groove 230. The two sides of the end of the foot pedal 210 that is in contact with the reclining board 200 are recessed to form limiting grooves 240. The reclining board 200 is connected to limiting blocks 250 that are slidably disposed in the limiting grooves 240.

[0028] Two lumbar support plates 310 are symmetrically arranged on the side of the reclining board 200 away from the angle adjustment mechanism 120. The lumbar clamping mechanism includes two lumbar support plate pivots 320, two lumbar support plate cranks 330, and a lumbar support plate electric push rod 340. At both ends of the reclining board 200 near the angle adjustment mechanism 120, there are vertically spaced pivot connection seats 350. Both ends of each lumbar support plate pivot 320 are rotatably connected to the two vertically spaced pivot connection seats 350. One end of each of the two lumbar support plates 310 passes through two support plate through holes 260 and connects to the two lumbar support plate pivots. 320, two lumbar support plate pivots 320 are respectively connected to hinge parts 321, one end of the two lumbar support plate cranks 330 is respectively hinged to the hinge parts 321 of the two lumbar support plate pivots 320, and the other end is respectively hinged to the telescopic rod of the lumbar support plate electric push rod 340; when the telescopic rod of the lumbar support plate electric push rod 340 extends or retracts, it drives the two lumbar support plate pivots 320 to rotate through the two lumbar support plate cranks 330, so that the two lumbar support plate pivots 320 drive the two lumbar support plates 310 to rotate in a direction that moves closer to each other or further away from each other, so as to clamp or release the user's waist supported by the reclining board 200. A cervical sling 400 is positioned above the reclining board 200 and is used to cover the user's neck. The cervical traction mechanism includes a suspension spring 410 connected to the cervical sling 400, a cervical suspension rod 420 connected to the suspension spring 410, a suspension rod slider 430 connected to the cervical suspension rod 420, and a suspension rod electric push rod 440 for driving the suspension rod slider 430 to move along the length of the reclining board 200. The suspension rod electric push rod 440 is connected to the side of the reclining board 200 near the angle adjustment mechanism 120. When the suspension rod electric push rod 440 extends or retracts, it drives the cervical suspension rod 420 to move through the suspension rod slider 430, causing the suspension spring 410 to drive the cervical sling 400 to move along the length of the reclining board 200 to traction the user's head.

[0029] The controller is connected to the reclining board 200 and is electrically connected to the angle adjustment electric push rod, the pedal adjustment electric push rod, the lumbar support electric push rod 340, and the hanging rod electric push rod 440 respectively. It is used to control the extension and retraction of the telescopic rods of the angle adjustment electric push rod, the pedal adjustment electric push rod, the lumbar support electric push rod 340, and the hanging rod electric push rod 440 respectively.

[0030] Before using the home spinal traction device provided in this application embodiment, the following preparations are made: Use the controller to control the extension rod of the electric push rod 340 of the lumbar support plate to extend and push the two lumbar support plate cranks 330 to move, so that the two lumbar support plate cranks 330 pull the two hinge parts 321 respectively, causing the two lumbar support plate shafts 320 to rotate, so that the lumbar support plates 310 connected by the two lumbar support plate shafts 320 rotate and open in a direction away from each other. At the same time, use the controller to control the extension rod of the electric push rod of the pedal adjustment to extend and drive the foot pedal 210 to move downward along the length direction of the reclining board 200. Use the controller to control the extension rod of the electric push rod of the angle adjustment to retract and drive the support beam 110 to rotate along the vertical plane, so that the reclining board 200 is arranged at a preset angle with the horizontal plane, thus completing the adjustment operation of the home spinal traction device.

[0031] When performing lumbar rehabilitation exercises, the user lies on the reclining board 200 with both feet supported on the foot pedals 210. Using the controller, the extension rod of the lumbar support electric push rod 340 is retracted, causing the two lumbar support cranks 330 to move. The two lumbar support cranks 330 pull the two hinges 321 respectively, causing the two lumbar support shafts 320 to rotate in opposite directions. This causes the lumbar support plates 310 connected by the two lumbar support shafts 320 to rotate towards each other, tightening and clamping the user's waist. Using the controller, the extension rod of the pedal adjustment electric push rod is retracted, driving the foot pedals 210 to move upward along the length of the reclining board 200 to support the user's body to rise. Subsequently, the controller controls the extension rod of the pedal adjustment electric push rod to extend, driving the foot pedals 210 to move downward along the length of the reclining board 200 to support the user's body to descend. By adjusting the foot pedals 210, the user's waist is repeatedly raised and lowered to achieve lumbar rehabilitation.

[0032] During cervical spine rehabilitation, the cervical sling 400 is placed around the user's neck. The controller controls the extension of the telescopic rod of the electric push rod 440, which pushes the cervical sling 420 upward through the sling slider 430. This causes the cervical sling 420, through the sling spring 410, to pull the user's cervical spine upward for rehabilitation. Subsequently, the controller controls the retraction of the telescopic rod of the electric push rod 440, which pushes the cervical sling 420 downward through the sling slider 430. This stops the cervical sling 420 from pulling the user's cervical spine upward. By adjusting the cervical sling 420, the user's neck is repeatedly stretched and raised to achieve cervical spine rehabilitation.

[0033] The foot pedal 210 has a connecting groove 230 extending along the length of the reclining board 200 at its center end, which is in contact with the footrest 210. The telescopic rod of the pedal adjustment electric push rod is hinged to the bottom wall of the connecting groove 230, which saves space and increases the lifting stroke of the foot pedal 210. Limiting grooves 240 are recessed on both sides of the end of the foot pedal 210 that are in contact with the reclining board 200. Limiting blocks 250 are slidably disposed within the limiting grooves 240 on the reclining board 200. The limiting blocks 250 and the limiting grooves 240 work together to limit the position of the foot pedal 210, ensuring stable lifting and lowering support for the user's body to perform lumbar stretching exercises, thus achieving lumbar rehabilitation exercises. The cervical sling 400 is connected to the cervical sling 420 via a sling spring 410. The elastic cushioning effect of the sling spring 410 allows the cervical sling 400 to stably lift and lower, traction the user's neck, avoiding injury to the user's neck.

[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, in other alternative embodiments, the reclining board 200 may also be curved to adapt to and conform to the user's back, providing stable support and improving the user's comfort when the back is supported on the reclining board 200.

[0035] This application also provides a home spinal traction system, which includes the above-described home spinal traction device.
