Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical equipment, in particular to a myoelectric forearm prosthesis receiving cavity. Background Art

[0002] Prosthesis is an artificial prosthesis specially designed and manufactured by engineering technology to compensate for amputees or incomplete limb loss, also known as "prosthetic limb". Its main function is to replace some of the functions of the lost limbs, so that amputees can regain a certain degree of self-care and work ability. It is suitable for amputees due to diseases, traffic accidents, industrial accidents, sports injuries, etc.

[0003] Myoelectric prostheses use myoelectric induction to control prostheses and reproduce the movements of human limbs, so as to restore the amputee's ability to take care of himself and work to a certain extent.

However, long-term contact with electrodes may cause chronic health risks.

[0005] Moreover, the remaining limbs of amputees are inherently more fragile than those of ordinary people, so more attention needs to be paid to avoid danger, so improvements are needed. Utility Model Content

However, it should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the scope of the utility model. In addition, in the following description, the description of the known structure and technology is omitted to avoid unnecessary confusion of the concept of the utility model.

[0030] See also Figures 1 to 5The embodiment of the utility model provides a myoelectric forearm prosthesis receiving cavity, including a receiving cavity shell 1, a cavity 101 is provided in the receiving cavity shell 1, a plurality of myoelectric sensing slots 2 are provided on the cavity 101, a myoelectric sensing slot 2 is provided with a muscle electrode sensing device 3, the muscle electrode sensing device 3 is attached to the human residual limb in the cavity 101, an adjustment slot 4 is provided in the myoelectric sensing slot 2, an adjustment mechanism 5 for controlling the activity of the muscle electrode sensing device 3 is provided in the adjustment slot 4, and the adjustment mechanism 5 is connected to the muscle electrode sensing device 3.

[0031] The adjustment system separates and fits the muscle electrode sensing device 3 to control whether the muscle electrode sensing device 3 is in contact with the human body, which can ensure safety. This is because if only operations such as power off are performed, a certain amount of operation time is required, and there may be a situation where it cannot be turned off, so physical means are needed to operate.

[0032] See also Figure 6 , 7 The adjustment mechanism 5 includes an adjustment shaft 501 provided in the adjustment slot 4, and an adjustment cam 502 is fixedly connected to the adjustment shaft 501. The adjustment cam 502 is provided with a top pressure area 5021 and a gentle area 5022. When the top pressure area 5021 moves toward the muscle electrode sensing device 3, the muscle electrode sensing device 3 fits the human body's residual limb; when the gentle area 5022 moves toward the muscle electrode sensing device 3, the muscle electrode sensing device 3 is separated from the human body's residual limb; a rebound spring is provided between the muscle electrode sensing device 3 and the adjustment slot 4.

[0033] When the muscle electrode sensing device 3 is in the use state, the rebound spring exerts a reaction force on it to control it to rebound and return to the separated state;

[0034] vice versa.

[0035] A pressing block 506 is provided on one side of the adjusting groove 4, and the pressing block 506 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the adjusting groove 4.

A return spring is connected between the transmission rack 504 and the inner wall of the adjustment slot 4 .

[0039] The return spring controls the transmission rack 504. When the transmission rack 504 receives the force control to drive the transmission gear 503 to rotate, the return spring returns it to its original position and fixes it through the fixing piece provided on the pressing block 506, thereby offsetting the action of the return spring and maintaining the use state.

[0040] vice versa.

[0041] The receiving cavity shell 1 is provided with a plurality of wiring grooves 6 , in which connecting wires are arranged, the connecting wires are connected to each other, and interfaces are arranged on the connecting wires.

[0046] Working process of this utility model:

[0047] The utility model provides a myoelectric forearm prosthesis receiving cavity, and in this embodiment, the pressing state is the separation state of the myoelectrode sensing device 3. During use, if discomfort occurs, the user immediately presses down the pressing block 506, driving the connecting rod 505 to move, and then driving the transmission rack 504 to move, driving the transmission gear 503 to rotate through meshing, and then driving the adjustment shaft 501 to rotate, thereby driving the adjustment cam 502 to rotate, and the position in contact with the myoelectrode sensing device 3 rotates from the top pressure area 5021 to the flat area 5022. At this time, the rebound spring connected to the myoelectrode sensing device 3 drives the myoelectrode sensing device 3 to rebound and reset, and separate from the human body's residual limb, and then fixes the pressing block 506 through the fixing piece to prevent it from returning to the use state;

[0048] After disassembly or when it needs to be used again, the fixing part is disassembled, and the pressing block 506 rebounds through the reset spring, driving the connecting rod 505 to move, and then driving the transmission rack 504 to move, driving the transmission gear 503 to rotate through meshing, and then driving the adjustment shaft 501 to rotate, thereby driving the adjustment cam 502 to rotate, and the position in contact with the muscle electrode sensing device 3 rotates from the flat area 5022 to the top pressure area 5021, and the muscle electrode sensing device 3 returns to the position of the use state.
