Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to a temperature-controlled flexible scoliosis correction system. Background Technology

[0002] Scoliosis is a common three-dimensional spinal deformity. Existing flexible corrective garments primarily correct spinal posture through physical force and elastic restraint. Their corrective principle is relatively passive and has the following drawbacks:

[0003] First, the continuous physical pressure and strong feeling of restraint, especially in cold environments, cause muscle stiffness and the corrective force to bring stronger discomfort, making patients unwilling to wear it for a long time.

[0004] Second, traditional corrective clothing does not take into account the physiological state of the muscle groups around the spine. When the muscles become stiff due to tension, strain or cold, their elasticity and compliance decrease, which will resist external corrective force, seriously weaken the corrective effect, and may even cause secondary damage due to uneven resistance.

[0005] Third, the correction strategy cannot be dynamically adjusted according to the patient's real-time physiological state (such as muscle temperature and activity level) and ambient temperature. The correction strategy is singular and lacks dynamic adaptability.

[0006] Therefore, patients who wear flexible corrective garments for extended periods to correct scoliosis may experience poor correction results and discomfort due to neglecting muscle condition. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To overcome the aforementioned deficiencies of the prior art, this invention provides a temperature-controlled flexible scoliosis correction system. Several far-infrared heating modules, a flexible dynamic correction module, and a temperature acquisition module are positioned in corresponding areas on the patient's back and waist via the lining of a corrective garment. When the heating disc is heated, the flexible memory metal wire plate contracts and deforms, generating thrust towards the corresponding area of ​​the lining, effectively applying directional and adjustable corrective thrust to the corresponding areas of the back and waist. This force is cyclically applied to correct the corresponding areas. The far-infrared heating module and the temperature acquisition module are integrated into the lining of the corrective garment. Heating plates heat the corresponding muscle groups, and several temperature acquisition modules with staggered heating plates monitor the surface temperature and multi-point temperature distribution of the corresponding muscle groups in real time. This allows for dynamic adjustment of the correction strategy based on the patient's real-time physiological state and ambient temperature, improving the correction effect and dynamic adaptability, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0009] A temperature-controlled flexible scoliosis correction system includes a flexible corrective garment body. An inner lining is provided inside the flexible corrective garment body. The inner lining includes a back lining, a waist lining, and a fitted lining. There are two waist linings, which are symmetrically fixed to the inside of the flexible corrective garment body via the back lining. The fitted lining is fixed to the inside of the flexible corrective garment body and forms a correction space between itself, the back lining, and the two waist linings. Several vertically arranged far-infrared heating modules are provided within the correction space. Each far-infrared heating module includes a back connecting strap, a heating plate, and a waist connecting strap. There are several heating plates and two waist connecting straps. Several heating plates are fixed to the back liner and the inner side of the two waist liners respectively via the back connecting strap and the two waist connecting straps; several horizontally arranged flexible dynamic correction modules and temperature acquisition modules are provided between two adjacent far-infrared heating modules. The flexible dynamic correction module includes a flexible memory metal wire plate and four heating convex plates. The flexible memory metal wire plate is inserted between two adjacent far-infrared heating modules to position the four heating convex plates inside the correction space. Several temperature acquisition modules are fixedly connected to the back liner, the waist liners and the back connecting strap respectively; a control module is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the flexible correction garment body corresponding to the area of ​​the patient's waist.

[0010] Furthermore, the back lining is fixedly connected to the area corresponding to the patient's back on the inner wall of the flexible corrective garment body, the two waist linings are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the back lining respectively, the outer wall of the waist lining is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the flexible corrective garment body, the fitting lining is located inside the back lining and the waist lining, and the open end of the fitting lining is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the flexible corrective garment body.

[0011] Furthermore, the back side of the back connecting strap is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the back side liner, and the back sides of the two waist connecting straps are respectively fixedly connected to the inner walls of the two waist liners.

[0012] Furthermore, several heating plates are respectively fixedly connected to the front of the back side connecting belt and the waist side connecting belt, and the several heating plates located inside the back side liner are staggered.

[0013] Furthermore, several flexible memory metal wire plates are respectively engaged and connected between two adjacent back side connecting strips and two adjacent waist side connecting strips. The back sides of several flexible memory metal wire plates respectively contact the inner walls of the back side liner and the corresponding waist side liner. The front sides of the flexible memory metal wire plates are fixedly connected to four rectangularly distributed heating cams.

[0014] Furthermore, a connecting block is fixedly connected to the top of the flexible memory metal wire plate, and positioning slots are provided inside the back connecting strip and the waist connecting strip, and the connecting block is inserted into the corresponding connecting block.

[0015] Furthermore, several temperature acquisition modules are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the back side liner, the inner wall of the waist side liner, and the front side of the back side connecting strip. The several temperature acquisition modules and several heating plates are distributed alternately. The front ends of the heating plates, the heating convex plates, and the temperature acquisition modules are all in contact with the outer wall of the liner.

[0016] Furthermore, the flexible corrective garment has three straps fixedly connected to the front of its main body, and the three straps are distributed vertically.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0018] 1. This invention connects a lining to the inner side of the flexible corrective garment body. The lining provides the corrective space to connect several combined far-infrared heating modules, flexible dynamic correction modules, and temperature acquisition modules. These modules are positioned in corresponding areas on the patient's back and waist to improve the effectiveness of the flexible corrective garment body. When the heating cam is heated, the flexible memory metal wire plate contracts and deforms, generating thrust on the corresponding area of ​​the lining. This changes the support stiffness and shape of the area, effectively applying directional and adjustable corrective thrust to the corresponding areas of the back and waist. The cooling of the heating cam allows the flexible memory metal wire plate to recover, cyclically applying force to the corresponding areas to improve the corrective effect.

[0019] 2. In this invention, the far-infrared heating module and the temperature acquisition module are integrated into the lining of the corrective garment. Several vertically arranged back and waist connecting straps connect several independently controllable heating plates to key muscle groups on both sides of the spine. When the patient wears the flexible corrective garment for corrective procedures, the heating plates heat the corresponding muscle groups. Simultaneously, several temperature acquisition modules with staggered heating plates monitor the surface temperature and multi-point temperature distribution of the corresponding muscle groups in real time. This effectively alleviates muscle tension in different muscle groups, thereby dynamically adjusting the corrective strategy based on the patient's real-time physiological state and ambient temperature. The corrective force applied by the flexible dynamic corrective module to the corresponding areas is adjusted to effectively improve the corrective effect and dynamic adaptability, enhancing the patient's comfort when wearing the flexible corrective garment for corrective procedures.

[0028] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Specific mechanical structures of the present invention will be referred to in conjunction with the following description. Figures 1 to 6 The detailed description of the structure will be clearly presented. All structural details mentioned in the following embodiments are based on the accompanying drawings.

[0029] Please see Figures 1-6In this embodiment of the invention, a temperature-controlled flexible scoliosis correction system includes a flexible correction garment body 1. An inner lining 2 is provided inside the flexible correction garment body 1. The inner lining 2 includes a back lining 21, a waist lining 22, and a fitted lining 23. There are two waist linings 22, which are symmetrically fixed to the inner side of the flexible correction garment body 1 via the back lining 21. The fitted lining 23 is fixed to the inner side of the flexible correction garment body 1, forming a correction space 201 between itself, the back lining 21, and the two waist linings 22. Several vertically arranged far-infrared heating modules 3 are provided inside the correction space 201. Each far-infrared heating module 3 includes a back connecting strap 31, a heating plate 32, and a waist connecting strap 33. There are several heating plates 32. There are two connecting straps 33. Several heating plates 32 are fixed to the inside of the back liner 21 and the two waist liners 22 respectively through the back connecting strap 31 and the two waist connecting straps 33. Several horizontally arranged flexible dynamic correction modules 4 and temperature acquisition modules 5 are provided between two adjacent far-infrared heating modules 3. The flexible dynamic correction module 4 includes a flexible memory metal wire plate 41 and four heating convex plates 42. The flexible memory metal wire plate 41 is inserted between two adjacent far-infrared heating modules 3 to position the four heating convex plates 42 inside the correction space 201. Several temperature acquisition modules 5 are fixedly connected to the back liner 21, the waist liners 22 and the back connecting strap 31 respectively. A control module 6 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the flexible correction garment body 1 in the area corresponding to the patient's waist.

[0030] The flexible corrective garment body 1 is made of elastic composite material and is used to connect the corrective garment lining 2 for the patient to wear. The corrective garment lining 2 is connected to the inside of the flexible corrective garment body 1. The corrective garment lining 2 consists of a back lining 21, a waist lining 22, and a fitted lining 23. The back lining 21 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the flexible corrective garment body 1 in the area corresponding to the patient's back. There are two waist linings 22, which are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the back lining 21, respectively. The outer wall of the waist lining 22 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the flexible corrective garment body 1, thus stably connecting the two waist linings 22 and the back lining 21 to the inner side of the flexible corrective garment body 1 in the area corresponding to the patient's back. The conforming liner 23 is located inside the back liner 21 and the waist liner 22. The open end of the conforming liner 23 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the flexible corrective garment body 1, stably connecting the conforming liner 23 to the inner position of the back liner 21 and the waist liner 22. After the patient wears the flexible corrective garment body 1, the conforming liner 23 can effectively contact the patient's body. The conforming liner 23, the back liner 21, and the two waist liners 22 form a correction space 201, which is used to connect the far-infrared heating module 3, the flexible dynamic correction module 4, and the temperature acquisition module 5. The control module 6 is fixed to the outer wall of the flexible corrective garment body 1 in the area corresponding to the patient's waist. The control module 6 is connected to the far-infrared heating module 3, the flexible dynamic correction module 4, and the temperature acquisition module 5, so as to control the safe use of the far-infrared heating module 3, the flexible dynamic correction module 4, and the temperature acquisition module 5 in the correction space 201. The main body 1 of the flexible corrective garment has three straps 11 fixedly connected to the front. The three straps 11 are vertically distributed and can be used to tighten the main body 1 of the flexible corrective garment to the patient's body surface to ensure normal use in the future.

[0031] The correction space 201 contains several far-infrared heating modules 3, arranged vertically within the space. Each far-infrared heating module 3 consists of a back-side connecting strap 31, a heating plate 32, and a waist-side connecting strap 33. The back of the back-side connecting strap 31 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the back-side liner 21. There are two waist-side connecting straps 33, each fixedly connected to the inner wall of a waist-side liner 22. Several heating plates 32 are fixedly connected to the front of the back-side connecting strap 31 and the two waist-side connecting straps 33, thus stably connecting the heating plates 32 to the inner sides of the back-side liner 21 and the corresponding waist-side liner 22 via the back-side connecting strap 31 and the two waist-side connecting straps 33. The front end of the heating plate 32 contacts the outer wall of the liner 23, allowing it to heat the corresponding area of ​​the patient's back after activation in the correction space 201. The heating plate 32 uses a flexible carbon fiber heating element or graphene heating film to ensure comfort and fit. Several heating plates 32 located inside the back liner 21 are staggered, and the heating plates 32 on the vertically arranged back connecting straps 31 are also staggered, expanding the coverage area of ​​the heating plates 32 on the patient's back, thus allowing the far-infrared heating module 3 to effectively heat different areas of the patient's back.

[0032] Between two far-infrared heating modules 3 positioned vertically, several horizontally arranged flexible dynamic correction modules 4 are arranged. Each flexible dynamic correction module 4 consists of a flexible memory metal wire plate 41 and four heating convex plates 42. The four heating convex plates 42 are rectangular and fixed to the front of the flexible memory metal wire plate 41. Several flexible memory metal wire plates 41 are respectively engaged and connected between two adjacent back-side connecting straps 31 and two adjacent waist-side connecting straps 33. The back sides of the several flexible memory metal wire plates 41 respectively contact the inner walls of the back-side liner 21 and the corresponding waist-side liner 22. A connecting block 43 is fixedly connected to the top of the flexible memory metal wire plate 41. Positioning slots 34 are opened inside the back-side connecting straps 31 and the waist-side connecting straps 33. The connecting block 43 is inserted into the corresponding connecting block 43, so that the flexible dynamic correction module 4 is stably positioned inside the correction space 201, and the flexible memory metal wire plate 41 corresponds to the designated areas on the patient's back and waist. When the heating cam 42 is heated, the flexible memory metal wire plate 41 can shrink and deform, generating thrust towards the corresponding area of ​​the mating liner 23, changing the support stiffness and shape of the area, and effectively applying directional and adjustable corrective thrust to the corresponding areas of the back and waist. The cooling of the heating cam 42 allows the flexible memory metal wire plate 41 to recover, thus cyclically applying force to the corresponding areas for correction, thereby improving the corrective effect.

[0033] The inner side of the flexible corrective garment body 1 is connected to the corrective garment lining 2. The corrective garment lining 2 provides a corrective space 201 to connect several far-infrared heating modules 3, flexible dynamic corrective modules 4, and temperature acquisition modules 5 used in combination. The far-infrared heating modules 3, flexible dynamic corrective modules 4, and temperature acquisition modules 5 are positioned in corresponding areas on the patient's back and waist to improve the effectiveness of the flexible corrective garment body 1. The far-infrared heating modules 3 and temperature acquisition modules 5 are integrated together in the corrective space 201 on the corrective garment lining 2. Several vertically arranged back connecting straps 31 and waist connecting straps 33 connect several independently controllable heating plates 32 to the key muscle groups on both sides of the spine. When the patient wears the flexible corrective garment body 1 for corrective work, the heating plates 32 heat the corresponding muscle groups. Several temperature acquisition modules 5 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the back liner 21, the inner wall of the waist liner 22, and the front of the back connecting strip 31. These temperature acquisition modules 5 are staggered with several heating plates 32, effectively covering different areas of the patient's back and waist. The front end of each temperature acquisition module 5 contacts and adheres to the outer wall of the liner 23. Each temperature acquisition module 5 uses a flexible thin-film temperature sensor. The staggered distribution of the heating plates 32 allows for real-time monitoring of the surface temperature and multi-point temperature distribution in corresponding muscle groups.

[0034] Several far-infrared heating modules 3, flexible dynamic correction modules 4, and temperature acquisition modules 5, covering different areas of the patient's back and waist, work together to pre-relax tense muscles and enhance tissue elasticity through far-infrared heating. This significantly reduces the biomechanical resistance of muscles to the corrective force, effectively alleviating the muscle state of different muscle groups. This allows for dynamic adjustment of the correction strategy based on the patient's real-time physiological state and ambient temperature, adjusting the corrective force applied by the flexible dynamic correction modules 4 to the corresponding areas. This ensures the corrective force acts more effectively on the spinal structure, improving the correction effect and dynamic adaptability. The warming effect provides comfort and relieves pain. Combined with a gradual dynamic force application method, this greatly enhances the patient's comfort when wearing the flexible correction garment 1 for corrective procedures, allowing for long-term treatment adherence.
