[0032] like Figure 1 — Fig.10 As shown, a new type of cervical collar for orthopedic rehabilitation described in the utility model comprises a first upper support plate 10, a first lower support plate 20, a second upper support plate 30, a second lower support plate 40, a rear support plate 50 and a fixing belt 60. The bottom end of the first upper support plate 10 is movably connected to the upper end of the first lower support plate 20, the bottom end of the second upper support plate 30 is movably connected to the upper end of the second lower support plate 40, the left side end of the first upper support plate 10 is movably connected to the right side end of the second upper support plate 30, the left side end of the first lower support plate 20 is movably connected to the right side end of the second lower support plate 40, and the rear support plate 50 is movably connected to the first upper support plate 10, the first lower support plate 20, the second upper support plate 30 and the second lower support plate 40 through the fixing belt 60. The first upper support plate 10, the first lower support plate 20, the second upper support plate 30 and the second lower support plate 40 are placed on the front neck of the patient, the rear support plate 50 is placed on the back neck of the patient, and the fixing belt 60 is used to fix the cervical collar to the patient's neck.

[0033] Among them, the first lower support plate 20 is provided with a second connecting block 21 and a first threaded groove 22, the second connecting block 21 is fixedly arranged at the lower left part of the first lower support plate 20, the second connecting block 21 is provided with a second rotating groove 211 and a first clamping block 212, the first clamping block 212 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second rotating groove 211, and the first threaded groove 22 is located on the right side of the first lower support plate 20.

[0034] Among them, the second lower support plate 40 is provided with a fourth connecting block 41, a second rotating shaft 42 and a second threaded groove 43, the fourth connecting block 41 is fixedly arranged on the upper right part of the second lower support plate 40, the bottom end of the fourth connecting block 41 is movably connected with the upper end of the second connecting block 21, and the fourth connecting block 41 is provided with a fifth rotating groove 411 and a blocking block 412, the blocking block 412 is fixedly arranged on the upper end of the fourth connecting block 41 and is located on the outer side of the fifth rotating groove 411, the blocking block 412 is used to fix the first lower support plate 20 and the second lower support plate 40, and the second threaded groove 43 is located on the left side of the second lower support plate 40.

[0035] Furthermore, the second rotating shaft 42 is movably arranged in the second rotating groove 211 and the fifth rotating groove 411, the first lower support plate 20 and the second lower support plate 40 are rotatably connected through the second rotating shaft 42, and the second rotating shaft 42 is provided with a third knob 421, a second clamping block 422 and a spring 423, the third knob 421 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the second rotating shaft 42, and the third knob 421 is adapted to the blocking block 412, and the blocking block 412 can fix the third knob 421.

[0036] Furthermore, the second clamping block 422 is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the side end of the second rotating shaft 42, and the second clamping block 422 is engaged with the first clamping block 212. This arrangement enables the second rotating shaft 42 to only move up and down in the second rotating groove 211, but cannot rotate in a plane. It can be understood that rotating the second rotating shaft 42 can drive the second connecting block 21 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the first lower support plate 20 to rotate synchronously. One end of the spring 423 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second rotating shaft 42, and the other end is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the second rotating groove 211.

[0037] When it is necessary to adjust the angle between the first lower support plate 20 and the second lower support plate 40, lift the third knob 421 upwards to release the restriction of the blocking block 412 on the third knob 421. At this time, the spring 423 is stretched, and then the third knob 421 is rotated, and the third knob 421 drives the second rotating shaft 42 to rotate. Under the engagement of the first clamping block 212 and the second clamping block 422, the second rotating shaft 42 drives the first lower support plate 20 to rotate.

[0038] Among them, the first upper support plate 10 is provided with a first connecting block 11, a first rotating groove 12, a first threaded rod 13 and a first telescopic column 14. The first connecting block 11 is fixedly arranged at the lower left part of the first upper support plate 10. The first connecting block 11 is fixedly arranged with a first rotating shaft 111, and the first rotating shaft 111 is located at the upper end of the first connecting block 11.

[0039] Furthermore, the first rotating groove 12 is located on the right side of the first upper support plate 10, one end of the first telescopic column 14 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the first upper support plate 10, and the other end is fixedly connected to the upper end of the first lower support plate 20. The first telescopic column 14 is used to assist in adjusting the distance between the first upper support plate 10 and the first lower support plate 20 to adapt to the neck length requirements of different patients.

[0040] Furthermore, a first knob 131 is fixedly disposed at the upper end of the first threaded rod 13, and the lower end of the first threaded rod 13 sequentially passes through the first rotation groove 12 and the first telescopic column 14 and is threadedly connected to the first threaded groove 22, such as Figure 8 As shown, due to the limiting effect of the first rotating groove 12 on the first threaded rod 13, the first threaded rod 13 can only rotate in a plane within the first rotating groove 12 and cannot move up and down. Therefore, when the first threaded rod 13 is rotated, the first threaded rod 13 can drive the first lower support plate 20 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the distance between the first upper support plate 10 and the first lower support plate 20.

[0041] Among them, the second upper support plate 30 is provided with a third connecting block 31, a fourth rotating groove 32, a second threaded rod 33 and a second telescopic column 34, the third connecting block 31 is fixedly arranged on the upper right part of the second upper support plate 30, and a third rotating groove 311 is arranged on the third connecting block 31, and the bottom end of the third connecting block 31 is movably connected to the upper end of the first connecting block 11.

[0042] Furthermore, the fourth rotating groove 32 is located on the left side of the second upper support plate 30, one end of the second telescopic column 34 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the second upper support plate 30, and the other end is fixedly connected to the upper end of the second lower support plate 40, and the second telescopic column 34 is used to assist in adjusting the distance between the second upper support plate 30 and the second lower support plate 40 to adapt to the neck length requirements of different patients.

[0043] Furthermore, a second knob 331 is fixedly provided on the upper end of the second threaded rod 33, and the lower end of the second threaded rod 33 successively passes through the fourth rotation groove 32 and the second telescopic column 34 and is threadedly connected to the second threaded groove 43. Due to the limiting effect of the fourth rotation groove 32 on the second threaded rod 33, the second threaded rod 33 can only rotate in a plane within the fourth rotation groove 32 but cannot move up and down. Therefore, when the second threaded rod 33 is rotated, the second threaded rod 33 can drive the second lower support plate 40 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the distance between the second upper support plate 30 and the second lower support plate 40.

[0044] Furthermore, the first rotating shaft 111 is movably disposed in the third rotating groove 311 .

[0045] When in use, first adjust the angles between the first upper support plate 10 and the second upper support plate 30, and between the first lower support plate 20 and the second lower support plate 40 according to the patient's neck circumference, and lift the third knob 421 upward until the restriction of the blocking block 412 on the third knob 421 is released. At this time, the spring 423 is stretched, and the third knob 421 is turned. The third knob 421 drives the first lower support plate 20 to rotate through the second rotating shaft 42, and the first lower support plate 20 drives the first upper support plate 10 to rotate synchronously through the first telescopic column 14. After the first upper support plate 10 and the first lower support plate 20 are adjusted to appropriate positions, the force of lifting the third knob 421 upward is removed. Under the elastic force of the spring 423, the third knob 421 moves downward and returns to the initial position; then, the distance between the first upper support plate 10 and the first lower support plate 20, and the distance between the second upper support plate 30 and the second lower support plate 40 are adjusted according to the patient's neck length, and the first knob 131 and the second knob 331 are rotated synchronously. The first knob 131 drives the first lower support plate 20 to move up and down through the first threaded rod 13, and the second knob 331 drives the second lower support plate 40 to move up and down through the second threaded rod 33. After adjusting the first lower support plate 20 and the second lower support plate 40 to appropriate positions, the neck brace is fixed to the patient's neck through the fixing belt 60.

[0046] The utility model is provided with a first upper support plate, a first lower support plate, a second upper support plate and a second lower support plate, so that the rotation angle of the neck support can be adjusted freely according to the patient's neck circumference. The first upper support plate and the second upper support plate are movably connected by a first rotating shaft, and the first lower support plate and the second lower support plate are movably connected by a second rotating shaft. When in use, the third knob is first lifted upward to release the restriction of the blocking block on the third knob, and the third knob is rotated. The third knob drives the first lower support plate to rotate via the second rotating shaft, and the first lower support plate drives the first upper support plate to rotate synchronously via the first telescopic column, so that the neck support can adapt to the needs of different patients' neck circumferences, and then the neck support can be firmly fixed to the patient's neck, avoiding the situation where the patient's neck health is affected by shaking, thereby increasing practicality.
