Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of virtual social assistance devices, in particular to a virtual social assistance device for elderly patients with schizophrenia. Background Art
[0002] Schizophrenia is a chronic and serious mental illness. The main causes of the disease include abnormalities in brain structure, genetic factors, and the influence of factors such as pregnancy and childbirth and the environment. Patients mainly show abnormalities in perception, emotion, and behavior, which will have a serious impact on the lives of patients and their families. Elderly patients with schizophrenia need to socialize to maintain socialization. Being separated from social interaction is unhealthy in itself and is also an indicator of recovery or improvement for schizophrenia patients. Elderly patients with schizophrenia will have an impact on others when socializing, and cannot guarantee their own safety when socializing with others. Without safety guarantees, elderly patients with schizophrenia cannot socialize regularly to improve their condition. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a virtual social assistance device for elderly schizophrenia, which solves the problem that elderly schizophrenia patients cannot regularly socialize to improve their condition without safety guarantees.

[0007] Preferably, the protective ring is circular, and a protrusion is provided at one end of the blocking rod and is movably connected to the inside of the connecting groove.
[0008] Preferably, the other end of the blocking rod can be engaged with the fixing groove.
[0009] Preferably, both ends of the base are gradually recessed toward the middle.
[0010] Preferably, the connecting line passes through the upper fixing piece and the lower fixing block, and the diameter of the upper fixing piece is greater than the length of the recessed part in the middle of the fixing ring.
[0011] Preferably, the shape of the sliding block fits the edge of the sliding rail.
[0012] Beneficial Effects
[0013] The utility model provides a virtual social assistance device for elderly schizophrenia. Compared with the prior art, it has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. A virtual social assistance device for elderly schizophrenia patients. When elderly schizophrenia patients engage in virtual social interaction, the device changes its length through a connecting line to cooperate with the elderly to move freely in the device. Since the connecting line is made of a retractable material, it can be retracted inside the upper fixing part and the lower fixing block. When subjected to tension, it will change its length to meet the user's usage needs. When there is no force, it will return to the inside of the upper fixing part and the lower fixing block for storage, preventing the device from being damaged due to dragging of the connecting line when in use.

Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0022] See also Figure 1-4 , the utility model provides a technical solution: a virtual social assistance device for elderly schizophrenia. The device comprises a virtual component 1, both ends of which are fixedly connected with auxiliary components 2, the auxiliary component 2 comprising a support rod 21, both ends of the support rod 21 are bent downward, and a protective ring 22 is fixedly connected in the middle, the protective ring 22 is used to provide safety protection for the user when the user uses the device, because the user is an elderly person, and external force is needed to maintain his own balance to prevent falling when using the device, one end of the protective ring 22 is recessed with a connecting groove 24, the interior of the connecting groove 24 is movably connected with a baffle 23, the other end of the protective ring 22 is recessed with a fixing groove 25, the baffle 23 is opened when in use, after the user enters the device, the baffle 23 is embedded in the interior of the fixing groove 25, so that a closed environment is formed inside the device, the bottom of the support rod 21 is fixedly connected with a base 26, the middle of the base 26 is provided with a sliding board 27, the surface of the sliding board 27 is provided with a Mecanum wheel, which can simulate the state of a person when walking, but the position will not change, so that the elderly schizophrenia patients can walk freely in the virtual world when using the device for virtual social interaction.
[0023] See also Figure 1-2The virtual component 1 includes a fixing ring 11, a slide rail 12 is recessed inwardly in the middle of the fixing ring 11, a slider 14 is clamped inside the slide rail 12, an upper fixing piece 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the slider 14, and a lower fixing block 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider 14. The upper fixing piece 13 and the lower fixing block 15 can fix the slider 14 inside the slide rail 12 and slide inside the slide rail 12 following the movement of the user. A connecting line 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lower fixing block 15. The connecting line 16 can change its own length according to the user's behavior to cooperate with the user. The bottom of the connecting line 16 is fixedly connected to a virtual glasses 17. The virtual glasses 17 are based on a combination of multiple technologies, including real-time three-dimensional computer graphics technology, wide-angle and wide-field stereoscopic display technology, tracking technology for the observer's head, eyes and hands, as well as tactile / force feedback, stereo, network transmission, voice input and output technology, etc., to provide virtual social interaction for elderly schizophrenia patients. Wearing rings 18 are fixedly connected to both ends of the virtual glasses 17. The shape of the slider 14 fits the edge of the slide rail 12 , and the slider 14 can slide inside the slide rail 12 when driven by the user.
[0024] See also Figure 1-4 A storage rack 28 is fixedly connected to the top of one end of the support rod 21. When the device is not in use, the storage rack 28 can be snapped into the inside of the storage rack 28 for fixed storage. An emergency button 29 is provided below the storage rack 28. When the user feels unwell during use, the emergency button 29 can be pressed to send a signal for help. One end of the storage rack 28 protrudes upward.
