[0038] The middle part of the first expansion body 410 is made of a hollow polyethylene tube, and both sides of the hollow polyethylene tube are connected with hollow air cushions. The size of the protrusion 409 is completely adapted to the second slide groove 407.
[0039] It needs to be further explained that: when it is necessary to adjust the height of the second support ring 502, the first air pump 401 and the second air pump 402 are started to supply air to the inside of the first air pipe 412 and the second air pipe 413, thereby driving the air cushion inside the first expansion body 410 and the second expansion body 411 to expand, and further the first slider 404 and the second slider 408 are pushed upward by the expansion of the air cushion. In this process, the second support ring 502 is tightly attached to the patient's neck as the first expansion body 410 and the second expansion body 411 expand. Under the action of the elastic force of the air cushion itself, the back of the patient's neck and the lower jaw are fixed by the second support ring 502, and the front of the patient's neck will not be blocked, thereby facilitating the doctor to perform surgical treatment on the patient's neck.
[0040] like Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the fastening mechanism 5 includes a first supporting ring 501, a second supporting ring 502, a third slider 503, a third slide groove 504, a side plate 505, a first slide rope 506, a sub-buckle 507, a limiting ring 508, a female buckle 509 and a second slide rope 510.

[0041] The locking mechanism 5 also includes a knob 511, a bearing ring 512, a limiting groove 513, a limiting block 514 and a limiting rod 515. The knob 511 is arranged on one side of the first support ring 501. A bearing ring 512 is arranged on one side of the knob 511. A limiting groove 513 is provided at the bottom of the knob 511. The limiting groove 513 is internally movably connected to the limiting block 514. One side of the limiting block 514 is movably connected to the limiting rod 515.
[0042] The limiting ring 508 is fixedly installed on one side of the first supporting ring 501, and is mirrored on the other side of the first supporting ring 501 with the knob 511 as the center. There are two groups of second slide ropes 510 respectively connected on both sides of the knob 511. A cavity is formed between the third slider 503 and the second supporting ring 502, and the size of the cavity is completely adapted to the sub-buckle 507.
[0043] It needs to be further explained that: when it is necessary to turn the knob 511 to adjust the tightness, the knob 511 needs to be manually pulled out until one side of the limit rod 515 contacts the bottom of the limit block 514. At this time, the limit block 514 is disengaged from the limit groove 513, and the knob 511 can rotate around the limit rod 515, thereby driving the second pulley 510 on both sides of the knob 511 to wrap around one side of the bearing ring 512, and further driving the first pulley 506 connected to one side of the sub-buckle 507 to contract, thereby driving the third slider 503 and the side plate 505 to move toward the patient's neck, thereby fixing the patient's neck and preventing the patient from shaking during the operation.
[0044] The technical solution provided by the utility model is that when a thyroid surgery cervical collar is used, first, when it is necessary to adjust the height of the second support ring 502, the first air pump 401 and the second air pump 402 are started to supply air to the inside of the first air tube 412 and the second air tube 413, thereby driving the air cushion inside the first expansion body 410 and the second expansion body 411 to expand, and further the first slider 404 and the second slider 408 are pushed upward by the expansion of the air cushion. In this process, the second support ring 502 is closely attached to the patient's neck as the first expansion body 410 and the second expansion body 411 expand. Under the action of the elastic force of the air cushion itself, the back of the patient's neck and the lower jaw are fixed by the second support ring 502, and the front side of the patient's neck is not blocked, so that it is convenient for doctors to perform surgical treatment on the patient's neck.
[0045] Next, when the patient's neck is fixed, the doctor needs to make the next adjustment based on the circumference of the patient's neck;
[0046] Finally, when it is necessary to turn the knob 511 to adjust the tightness, the knob 511 needs to be manually pulled out until one side of the limit rod 515 contacts the bottom of the limit block 514. At this time, the limit block 514 is disengaged from the limit groove 513, and the knob 511 can rotate around the limit rod 515, thereby driving the second slide rope 510 on both sides of the knob 511 to wrap around one side of the bearing ring 512, and further driving the first slide rope 506 connected to one side of the sub-buckle 507 to contract, thereby driving the third slider 503 and the side plate 505 to move toward the patient's neck, thereby fixing the patient's neck and preventing the patient from shaking during the operation.
