Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to a medical fixation device, in particular to a rib fixation belt. Background Art

[0002] In the medical and rehabilitation fields, rib fixation belts are used to support and protect injured ribs, reduce the patient's pain and promote their recovery. Although rib fixation belts play an important role in the treatment of rib fractures or other chest injuries, the existing technology has obvious deficiencies in several key aspects. Specifically. The existing rib fixation belt adopts a unilateral fixing structure, that is, a hook-surface Velcro is provided at one end of the belt body, and a fleece-surface Velcro is provided at the other end, and fixation is achieved by adhesion of the two. This design makes it difficult to accurately control the tightness of the fixation belt when wearing it, resulting in an unstable fixation effect. It may lead to poor support effect due to insufficient tightness, or affect the patient's comfort and blood circulation due to excessive tightness.

[0003] In addition, the current rib fixation belt has no reinforcement strips and only relies on the material properties of the belt body itself to achieve support and fixation in the width direction. This results in its limited ability to provide stable support, especially for recovery situations that require higher stability. The existing design cannot provide sufficient support strength, affecting the recovery effect.

[0004] At the same time, due to the limited structural design, the existing rib fixation belts are not easy to wear. External force may be required when wearing and adjusting the fixation belt, which brings inconvenience to patients and caregivers, especially for patients with limited mobility or limited one-handed operation ability, this design reduces their independence.

[0005] In summary, the development of a new type of rib fixation belt can not only solve the limitations of existing technologies and improve the effects of treatment and rehabilitation, but also enhance patients' usage experience and satisfaction, which has important social and economic value.

[0026] Figure 1 and 2 An exemplary structure for achieving the purpose of the present application is shown in the figure. As shown in the figure, this embodiment specifically discloses a rib fixing belt, which is composed of multiple components and has a two-pair binding fixing structure. The fixing effect is good and it is easy to wear. This embodiment aims to provide a device that is comfortable, flexible in adjustment and can effectively fix the ribs.

[0027] Specifically, the rib fixing belt is mainly composed of a base belt 1, a left wing belt 2, a right wing belt 3 and a shoulder belt 4. The base belt 1 is the main structure, and the front 5 is symmetrically provided with two Velcro fleece groups 6 and two rib groups 7, while the back 8 is provided with a second Velcro hook surface 9 at the edge of one side. The left wing belt 2 and the right wing belt 3 are elastic wing belts, one end of which is fixed near the center of the base belt 1, and the other end is a free end 10, which is equipped with a first Velcro hook surface for fixing. The two shoulder belts 4 are detachably installed on the left wing belt 2 and the right wing belt 3, respectively, to provide additional support and their lengths are adjustable.

[0028] More specifically, in this embodiment, the base band 1 is made of elastic material, providing good adaptability and comfort. Two groups of rib groups 7 are symmetrically arranged along the width direction on the front side, each group includes two ribs 11, and the ribs 11 are fixed on the base band 1 after being covered with a cloth cover, which enhances the stability and support of the belt body. Each rib 11 is made of a light but high-strength material, such as carbon fiber or high molecular polymer, to ensure that there is sufficient support without adding too much weight. The cloth cover material covering the surface of the ribs is selected from fabrics with good skin-friendliness and strong breathability to reduce the discomfort that may be caused by long-term wearing. More specifically, in this embodiment, two Velcro fleece groups 6 are symmetrically arranged on the front side of the base band 1, each group includes three Velcro fleece strips 12 arranged along the length direction of the base band, so as to cooperate with the first Velcro hook surface on the left wing band 2 / right wing band 3 to achieve adjustable tightness and fixity.

[0029] In this embodiment, the left wing strap 2 and the right wing strap 3 are both made of elastic material, one end of which is fixed near the center of the base strap 1, and a handle 13 is provided on the free end of the two wing straps to facilitate the user to tighten and fix the wing straps, thereby increasing the convenience of wearing.

[0030] As a further description of this embodiment, in this embodiment, the shoulder strap 4 is detachable and adjustable in length, and can be adjusted according to the specific needs of the user, providing additional fixation and support, and reducing the pressure on the body of the base band 1. In addition, the shoulder strap 4 is made of wide and soft material, and the surface is covered with breathable and moisture-absorbent fabric to reduce the pressure and friction on the shoulders, especially for users who need to wear it for a long time.

[0031] When using this embodiment, first ensure that the ribs 11 of the rib fixing belt face outwards and the second Velcro hook surface 9 is exposed to the outside. After wearing the shoulder strap 4 of the rib fixing belt, wrap the base belt 1 around the chest and adjust it appropriately to the area that needs to be fixed so that both ends are in front of the chest for easy operation. Then, gently tighten the base belt 1 to a comfortable tightness that can provide appropriate support, and then stick the second Velcro hook surface 9 at one end to the corresponding Velcro wool noodle 12. Make sure that the sticking is firm. During the above operation, it should also be noted that it should not be over-tightened to avoid affecting normal breathing.

[0032] After the operation is completed, tighten the left wing belt 2 and the right wing belt 3 to a suitable tightness, and then stick the first Velcro hook surface of each to the Velcro wool surface 12 on the base belt 1 to achieve double adhesion. Adjust the tightness of both sides to be balanced to avoid uneven pressure.

[0033] After double-taping, gently move your body to check whether the rib cage strap can maintain the proper position and fixation force during the movement. If it feels too tight or uncomfortable, adjust it to the appropriate state in time. Finally, adjust the length of the shoulder strap to ensure that it provides additional support without causing pressure on the shoulder.

[0034] Although the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure have been described, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made to the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure in essence. Therefore, all changes and modifications are included in the scope of protection of the present disclosure as defined by the claims. The present disclosure is defined by the appended claims, and the equivalents of these claims are also included.
