[0002] With the advancement of medical technology and the improvement of people's living standards, the treatment of orthopedic trauma requires not only the repair and reconstruction of local tissues, but also the rapid recovery of the body. For lower limb orthopedic surgery, early and reasonable weight-bearing exercises are an important part of postoperative management. Reasonable weight-bearing not only helps local bone and soft tissue healing, but also promotes the overall functional recovery of patients and improves the efficiency of medical services.

[0003] However, in actual clinical practice, how to make patients bear weight properly after lower limb surgery has always been a problem that troubles doctors and patients. The ideal way is: in the early postoperative period, the weight of the affected limb should be the least, and then, as the recovery time increases, the weight of the affected limb can be gradually increased until it reaches normal weight. However, due to the lack of dedicated weight monitoring, patients can only rely on experience to distribute the weight of the two limbs, which is not conducive to the patient's recovery.

[0004] In addition, some patients will have difficulty wearing normal-sized shoes due to swelling of their feet after surgery, causing inconvenience to the patients. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The following embodiments of the technical solution of the utility model are described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, and are therefore only used as examples, and cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the utility model.

[0028] See also Figures 1 to 3 The utility model provides a load-bearing pressure warning shoe, comprising a sole 100, an upper 200, a connecting structure 300 and a pressure sensing alarm structure 400.

[0029] Specifically, the shoe upper 200 includes two sub-uppers 210, which are relatively arranged on the left and right sides of the sole 100. The connecting structure 300 is connected between the two sub-uppers 210, and is used to connect the two sub-uppers 210 to form the shoe upper 200 with an opening at the top.

[0030] The pressure sensing alarm structure 400 includes a power supply 410, a gear switch 420, a plurality of pressure sensors 430, a circuit board 440 and an alarm 450. The power supply 410 is arranged in the sole 100, and the gear switch 420 is provided with a plurality of gears corresponding to different weights. The gear switch 420 is arranged on the outer side of the sole 100 and is electrically connected to the gear switch 420. A plurality of pressure sensors 430 are arranged in the sole 100 and are all electrically connected to the gear switch 420. Each pressure sensor can test the pressure borne by the sole 100, and a plurality of pressure sensors 430 are connected in parallel, and all pressure sensors are connected to the power supply circuit of the alarm 450 through the circuit board 440, and the alarm 450 is arranged on the sole 100.

[0031] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the power source 410 can be a small button battery, and the gear switch 420, the plurality of pressure sensors 430 and the alarm 450 can all be the gear switch 420, the plurality of pressure sensors 430 and the alarm 450 of a small size commonly used in the prior art. When in use, when the two sub-uppers 210 are in a separated state, the affected foot is placed in the shoe upper 200, and then the two sub-uppers 210 are connected together through the connecting structure 300; then, according to the patient's own condition after the operation, the corresponding weight gear corresponding to the gear switch 420 is selected. During walking, when the weight borne by the sole 100 on this side is greater than the value corresponding to this gear, the alarm 450 sounds an alarm, and the patient needs to redistribute the weight borne by the affected foot when walking.

[0032] When in use, with the two sub-uppers 210 in a separated state, the affected foot is placed into the shoe upper 200, and then the two sub-uppers 210 are connected together through the connecting structure 300; then, according to the patient's condition after the operation, the corresponding weight gear of the gear switch 420 is selected. During walking, when the weight borne by the sole 100 on this side is greater than the value corresponding to this gear, the alarm 450 sounds an alarm, and the patient needs to redistribute the weight borne by the affected foot when walking.

[0033] It should be noted that in the early stage after surgery, a small gear value should be selected, and as the recovery time increases, the gear value can be gradually increased. In addition, in specific implementation, the shoes can be roughly divided into multiple models according to size, and the user can choose the appropriate shoe size according to their own situation, and the shoes can be easily worn through the connection structure 300.

[0034] The above-mentioned weight-bearing pressure warning shoes are convenient for patients with swollen feet to wear. At the same time, when the weight on the affected limb is greater than the number set by the patient, an alarm will be issued to remind the patient, thereby monitoring the weight on the affected limb and further achieving the purpose of assisting the affected limb to recover quickly.

[0035] In this embodiment, the gear switch 420 is a four-way dial switch, there are four pressure sensors, and the pressure thresholds of the four pressure sensors gradually increase. In the specific production, the way of gradual increase depends on the specific situation of the patient. For example, when the maximum load of this shoe is set to 140 catties, the first gear can be 50% of the body weight, that is, 70 catties, the second gear can be 100 catties, the third gear can be 120 catties, and the fourth gear can be 140 catties. Of course, in the specific implementation, this shoe can be made into different models, such as the maximum load of 100 catties, 150 catties, 180 catties, 200 catties, etc., and the gear should also be adjusted accordingly.

[0036] In this embodiment, multiple pressure sensors 430 are arranged adjacent to each other in a circular circumferential shape in the sole 100, which is convenient for installation. At the same time, the adjacent arrangement can reduce the pressure sensing error of the multiple pressure sensors 430, thereby making the monitoring more accurate.

[0037] In addition, since the heel usually touches the ground first when a person walks, a pressure sensor can be set in the heel of the sole 100 to respond to the load condition in the first time.

[0038] In this embodiment, the connection structure 300 includes a front zipper 310 and a rear zipper 320. The front zipper 310 is connected between two opposite sides of the front sides of the two sub-sides 210, and the rear zipper 320 is connected between two opposite sides of the rear sides of the two sub-sides 210. The left and right sub-sides 210 can be conveniently connected together through the zipper structure.

[0039] As a preferred embodiment, the early warning shoe further includes an auxiliary binding structure 500 , which can be detachably connected between the two sub-sides 210 and is used to auxiliary bind the two sub-sides 210 .

[0040] Specifically, the auxiliary binding structure 500 includes a connecting belt 510, a Velcro surface 520 and a Velcro thorn surface. One end of the connecting belt 510 is fixed to one of the sub-sides 210, the Velcro thorn surface is arranged at the end of the connecting belt 510, and the Velcro surface 520 is arranged on the other sub-side 210, and the Velcro thorn surface can be adhered and fixed to the Velcro surface 520.

[0041] After the foot is inserted into the shoe upper 200 and the front zipper 310 and the rear zipper 320 are closed, the connecting belt 510 is pulled to connect the Velcro surface 520 and the Velcro thorn surface, so that the shoe upper 200 can be further tightened to prevent the shoe from falling off.

[0042] In a specific implementation, the connecting strap 510 may be selected as an elastic strap to further improve the comfort of the foot.

[0043] How to use the above-mentioned weight-bearing pressure warning shoes:

[0044] When in use, open the front zipper 310 and the back zipper 320, put the affected foot into the shoe upper 200 while the two sub-uppers 210 are separated, then close the front zipper 310 and the back zipper 320, then pull the connecting belt 510 to connect the Velcro thorn surface with the corresponding Velcro fleece surface 520, and then select the corresponding weight gear of the gear switch 420 according to your own condition after the operation. During walking, when the weight borne by the sole 100 on this side is greater than the corresponding value of this gear, the alarm 450 may sound an alarm, and the patient needs to redistribute the weight borne by the affected foot when walking.

[0045] The above-mentioned weight-bearing pressure warning shoes are convenient for patients with swollen feet to wear. At the same time, when the weight on the affected limb is greater than the number set by the patient, an alarm will be issued to remind the patient, thereby monitoring the weight on the affected limb and further achieving the purpose of assisting the affected limb to recover quickly.
