[0042] During actual work, the thumb (abduction) control block of the present application can ensure that the patient's thumb is in the abduction position, and the groove set on the thumb control block 3 can fix the thumb in an abducted and straightened position. Both thumb control blocks 3 can be moved on the orthopedic bracket 1 to ensure that the hand control plate 2 can be used for both left and right hands and hands of different sizes.

[0043] In actual operation, the present application can also set a wrist fixing lock on the first end surface 11 to tightly connect the wrist (arm) and the orthopedic support 1 (hand control panel). The letter lock 52 can connect the hand control panel 2 with the orthopedic support 1. The hand panel has a certain curvature and is suitable for fixing the palm and fingers of patients with finger flexion spasm.

[0044] During actual work, the bottom surface of the orthopedic brace 1 of the present application is a friction surface with a width of ten centimeters. The top angle of the orthopedic brace 1 is 110 degrees. Letter locking parts 52 can be set on both sides of the orthopedic brace 1, and the supporting surface is 90 degrees to the short surface; the second end surface 12 can also be called a short surface, and the second end surface 12 is a palm fixing surface; the first end surface 11 can also be called a long surface, and the first end surface 11 is an arm (forearm) fixing surface. Preferably, an arm locking device can be set on the first end surface 11 to fix the forearm.

[0045] The working principle and operation method of the utility model are:

[0046] 1. Place the hand control board 2 and the thumb control block 3 flat on the table, place the patient's hand in the palm orthotic cavity 4, put the thumb in the groove, fix the wrist on the hand board manually or with a lock, and complete the wearing of the hand control board 2.

[0047] 2. With the help of the patient's healthy hand, the patient connects the orthopedic support 1, the hand control board 2 and the thumb control block 3 together through the locking assembly 5

[0048] In actual work, the method of connecting the orthopedic support 1, the hand control plate 2 and the thumb control block 3 together through the locking assembly 5 includes: connecting one of the thumb control blocks 3 and the orthopedic support 1 together through the parent-child locking fastener located on one side of the orthopedic support 1; connecting the other thumb control block 3 and the orthopedic support 1 together through the parent-child locking fastener located on the other side of the orthopedic support 1; adjusting the position of the orthopedic support 1, and fixing the forearm on the orthopedic support 1 through the arm fixing lock or manually, thereby completing the self-donning of the anti-spasm tripod recorded in this application.

[0049] 3. Fix the sliding locking member 8 (such as an anti-rollover screw) on the bottom surface of the orthopedic support 1, and insert the top surface (plane) of the screw parallel to the sliding limit groove to ensure that the orthopedic support 1 cannot roll over, so that the forearm remains supinated to counteract the spastic state of the forearm pronation after stroke;

[0050] At this time, the fingers are stretched out due to the clamping of the hand board and the short surface of the orthopedic support 1 to achieve the purpose of anti-spasm, and the thumb is in an abducted and straightened state due to the abduction control block to achieve the purpose of anti-spasm. The wrist is in a dorsiflexed state because the hand board and forearm are fixed at the top angle of the orthopedic support 1, which changes the flexion spasm of the wrist joint. The forearm is fixed on the long surface of the orthopedic support 1 to maintain supination, which counteracts the spastic state of the forearm pronation after stroke.

[0051] 4. Place the antispasm orthotic brace 1 on the table rail after wearing, and push the orthotic brace 1 with the healthy hand to move it forward and backward and left and right, so that the shoulder and elbow of the affected limb make corresponding movements, so that the upper limb muscles are exercised and stretched, and the range of motion of the elbow and shoulder joints is expanded, so as to achieve the patient's antispasm rehabilitation purpose.

[0052] In actual work, some patients cannot wear the anti-spasm orthosis brace 1 due to severe spasm. They need to receive anti-spasm treatment from a rehabilitation therapist first, and then use the anti-spasm orthosis brace 1 for consolidation treatment after the spasm is slightly relieved.

[0053] In actual work, the orthopedic brace of the present application is preferably a triangular structure. The three sides of the orthopedic brace with a triangular structure have uses. The long side where the first end face is located is used to fix the forearm, the short side where the second end face is located is used to fix the palm, and the hypotenuse where the third end face is located can be placed on the table for reciprocating movement. The top angle of 110 degrees is suitable for the dorsiflexion stretching and anti-spasm angle of the wrist joint. If the orthopedic brace is provided with other structures, not only will the shape be wasteful, but it will also be inconsistent with ergonomics (forearm). Therefore, the orthopedic brace should adopt a triangular structure.

[0054] In actual work, the connection between the orthopedic support (tripod) and the snap-on buckle (letter lock fastener) is achieved by clamping the hand control board with the orthopedic support; when the hand control board is placed flat on the desktop, the thumb control block has a foldable snap-on buckle on the top and a reserved nut on the bottom. There is a one-centimeter-long slide groove at the corresponding position of the hand control board, which allows the thumb abduction control block to adjust its position, and then it is fixed with screws to complete the connection between the thumb control block and the hand control board.

[0055] In actual operation, the groove of the present application is formed by the cavity formed by connecting the protruding surface of the thumb control block with the hand control plate, and the groove is suitable for fixing the thumb in the abducted and straightened position. When the position of the thumb control block needs to be adjusted, the present application sets a slide groove (such as 1 cm long) on ​​the hand control plate, and the thumb control block can slide through the slide groove.

[0056] Compared with the existing anti-spasm tripod, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0057] 1. This application has a self-wearing function. In this application, the patient can wear the brace for training without the help of a therapist, achieving the same anti-spasm effect as having a therapist to help;

[0058] 2. This application allows the thumb to remain in the thumb abduction position;

[0059] 3. The present invention has an anti-rollover function. The existing anti-spasmodic tripod often turns inward during training, while the present invention can prevent the tripod from turning inward through the anti-rollover track;

[0060] 4. This application can simultaneously perform anti-spasm training on the upper limbs. This application can simultaneously perform anti-spasm training on the fingers, wrist joints, elbow joints and shoulder joints;

[0061] 5. This application can take effect in 2-3 days for mild to moderate spasms, and in 2 weeks for severe spasms. Especially for patients with difficulty in putting on clothes, the problem can be solved within a week, and the ability of daily life activities can be quickly improved. The abnormal flexion pattern of the patient's upper limbs can be improved within two weeks, so that the upper limbs can droop and restore a near-normal posture.

[0062] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
