Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of rehabilitation equipment, in particular to an ankle pump exercise aid. Background Art

[0002] Ankle pump exercise refers to an activity in which the patient actively flexes and extends the ankle joint to accelerate blood circulation in the lower limbs. This activity is very important for patients who need to stay in bed for a long time or have high risk factors for deep vein thrombosis. It can help patients perform ankle joint activity training while lying in bed. In the process of ankle flexion and extension, it can promote blood circulation in the lower limbs, promote venous and lymphatic return, prevent blood stasis in the veins or venous sinuses, and reduce the formation of venous thrombosis in the lower limbs; enhance muscle strength, avoid muscle atrophy, and improve the reconstruction of the affected limb function. The related muscles of the calf and thigh will continue to contract and relax. Continuing this type of activity can help the patient's lower limbs recover quickly.

[0003] Existing ankle pump exercises are divided into two groups of movements: flexion and extension, and circling. Flexion and extension can help long-term bedridden patients stretch their lower limbs and relax their thighs. When they are active, the toes can move back and forth in the positive and negative directions of the face for a certain period of time. After surgery, the patient's body functions have not recovered well and they cannot do autonomous training. At this time, nursing staff are required to assist the patient's circulation. However, during manual nursing, it is impossible to achieve uniform force on the ankle joint, which can easily lead to the risk of worsening of the patient's condition. In addition, manual nursing consumes more physical energy, which increases the labor intensity of nursing staff.

[0004] Therefore, an ankle pump exercise aid is proposed to solve the current deficiencies. Utility Model Content

[0017] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model embodiments clearer, the technical solution in the utility model embodiments will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the utility model embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the utility model embodiments, not all of the embodiments. Generally, the components of the utility model embodiments described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0018] In the description of the utility model embodiments, it should be noted that if the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", etc. indicate the orientation or position relationship, they are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the drawings, or the orientation or position relationship in which the utility model product is usually placed when in use. They are only for the convenience of describing the utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the utility model. In addition, the terms "first", "second", "third", etc. are only used to distinguish the description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0019] In addition, the terms "horizontal", "vertical", "overhanging" and the like do not mean that the components must be absolutely horizontal or overhanging, but can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" only means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical", and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.

[0020] In the description of the embodiments of the utility model, "a plurality of" means at least 2.

[0021] In the description of the utility model embodiments, it is also necessary to explain that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set", "install", "connect", and "connect" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal connection of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0022] Combined with Figure 1-3 As shown, an ankle pump exercise aid includes a plantar plate 1 and a fixing plate 2; in a specific implementation, the fixing plate 2 realizes the fixation of the aid, and the ankle pump exercise of flexion and extension of the foot is realized through the contact between the foot and the plantar plate 1 and by driving the rotation between the plantar plate 1 and the fixing plate 2.

[0023] Furthermore, it also includes an anti-skid pad 9, which is arranged on the lower side of the fixed plate 2 and is adapted to the fixed plate 2. Through the arrangement of the anti-skid pad 9, a fixed fit between the fixed plate 2 and the bed body can be achieved.

[0024] Furthermore, straps may be provided on both sides of the fixing plate 2 to fix the fixing plate 2 on a bed or the like, thereby fixing the auxiliary device.

[0025] One end of the sole plate 1 is hinged to one end of the fixing plate 2 via a torsion spring assembly 3. The torsion spring assembly 3 enables the sole plate 1 and the fixing plate 2 to be in a horizontal state.

[0026] When in use, the user places the heel against the vicinity of the torsion spring assembly 3 and the sole of the foot is placed on the sole plate 1. Through the setting of the torsion spring assembly 3, when the user performs active ankle pump exercise, the user drives the sole plate 1 to rotate toward the direction of the fixed plate 2. During the rotation process, the resistance increases continuously. When the contact point 8 on the sole plate 1 cooperates with the contact rod 7, the foot is gradually prevented from loosening. Under the action of the torsion spring assembly 3, the sole plate 1 drives the foot to rotate in the direction away from the fixed plate 2. At this time, an ankle pump exercise of the foot is completed. During the exercise, the torsion spring assembly 3 brings a damping feeling to the user, thereby improving the rehabilitation effect and increasing the effectiveness of the exercise.

[0027] A counter 4 is provided at one end of the fixing plate 2 away from the sole plate 1. By setting the counter 4, the number of ankle pump exercises of the user can be counted, so that the number of exercises can be clarified.

[0028] The fixing plate 2 is provided with an angle adjustment mechanism 5 in the middle, and a connection sleeve 6 is provided at the other end of the angle adjustment mechanism 5. The connection sleeve 6 is internally threadedly connected with a contact rod 7 electrically connected to the counter 4.

[0029] Furthermore, the touch rod 7 is a rod-shaped structure, and the touch rod 7 and the connecting sleeve 6 are coaxially arranged.

[0030] In actual implementation, since the connecting sleeve 6 and the touch rod 7 are threadedly connected, the relative position between the upper end of the touch rod 7 and the connecting sleeve 6 can be adjusted. At the same time, the angle adjustment mechanism 5 can adjust the height and angle of the touch rod 7, and realize the coordination between the touch rod 7 and the contact point 8, thereby realizing the control of the rotation angle between the plantar plate 1 and the fixed plate 2, so as to adjust the strength and amplitude of the ankle pump movement according to the actual needs of the user.

[0031] The bottom of the sole plate 1 is provided with a contact point 8 that cooperates with the touch rod 7. When performing ankle pump exercise, each time the contact point 8 on the sole plate 1 contacts the touch rod 7 on the fixed plate 2, the counter 4 counts once. At the same time, when the contact point 8 contacts the touch rod 7, the user's foot begins to prevent loosening. Under the action of the torsion spring assembly 3, the sole plate 1 drives the foot to rotate in a direction away from the fixed plate 2 to complete an ankle pump exercise of the foot.

[0032] By setting the sole plate, the fixing plate and the torsion spring assembly therebetween, the ankle pump movement of flexion and extension of the foot is achieved through the rotation between the sole plate and the fixing plate and the action of the torsion spring assembly;

[0033] The ankle pump exercise aid has a simple structure and is easy to use. It can also control the strength and amplitude of the ankle pump exercise so that each press reaches the maximum pressure value set by the user, which helps to improve the user's rehabilitation effect and increase the effectiveness of exercise.

[0034] The above description of the utility model and its implementation methods is not restrictive. The drawings show only one implementation method of the utility model, and the actual structure is not limited thereto. In short, if ordinary technicians in this field are inspired by it and design structural methods and embodiments similar to the technical solution without creativity without departing from the purpose of the invention of the utility model, they should all fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
