Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a waist protector, in particular to an adjustable waist protector, the overall length of a back plate component of the waist protector can be adjusted according to the waist circumference of a patient. Background Art

[0002] When a patient suffers from lower back pain, or undergoes orthopedic surgery, such as surgery to treat a herniated disc, the patient usually needs to use a waist brace to stabilize the waist, assist in supporting the lower back muscles, and reduce lower back or postoperative pain.

[0003] It is known that Taiwan Patent No. M629929 describes a waist support belt with an auxiliary positioning plate, wherein the waist support belt includes a belt body, a plurality of coupling components and a set of Velcro components, wherein the coupling components are coupled to the belt body to support the waist muscles. The Velcro components are coupled to the belt body to bind the waist support belt around the waist. However, the support structure (i.e., coupling components) of the waist support belt described in the above patent is a single piece, and only the Velcro components at both ends of the waist support belt are used to adjust and fix the waist support belt for patients with different waist circumferences. The adjustment and fixing effect is limited, and it cannot be applied to patients with different waist circumferences in one piece. Moreover, the structural strength of the single-piece coupling components is not good, and it is difficult to effectively support the patient's lower back muscles, which hinders the effectiveness of rehabilitation.

[0004] It is also known that Taiwan Patent No. M436346 describes a multifunctional rehabilitation belt, which is used in conjunction with a support member so that the support member can be placed against the lower back to support the muscles of the lower back. However, since the rehabilitation belt and the support member of the above patent are separately provided, the support member may shift to other positions when the patient is walking or changing different postures, such as sitting and lying down, resulting in the support member being unable to effectively support the patient's lower back muscles.

[0005] The known Taiwan Patent No. M622722 describes an adjustable waist support belt, which has a support member on the first inner connecting surface of the first belt body, so that the user can still straighten the upper body to avoid a bad sitting posture when sitting. However, the adjustable waist support belt is limited to the size of its first belt body, and the size of its support member is usually small, and it is difficult to be used in one piece for users with different waist circumferences. It can be seen that the structural design of the existing waist support belt is not perfect and there is still room for improvement. Utility Model Content

[0006] One of the purposes of the present invention is to provide a novel waist support structure design, which can be adapted to patients with different waist circumferences.

[0008] Wherein, the left adjustment strap and the right adjustment strap are fixed to the front side of the main back panel, and the main back panel is provided with a left through hole and a right through hole. The left adjustment strap passes through the left through hole and folds back to the rear side of the main back panel, and the right adjustment strap passes through the right through hole and folds back to the rear side of the main back panel.

[0009] It also includes a pull wire assembly, which includes two pull wires. The left sub-back plate is provided with a plurality of left winding holes, and the right sub-back plate is provided with a plurality of right winding holes. The two pull wires are alternately passed through the left winding hole and the right winding hole, and the two pull wires can be tightened or relaxed and switched between a tightened state and a relaxed state. When the two pull wires are in the tightened state, the left sub-back plate and the right sub-back plate are close to each other; when the two pull wires are in the relaxed state, the left sub-back plate and the right sub-back plate are away from each other.

[0010] Wherein, two opposite ends of the pull line are respectively provided with a gripping piece.

[0011] Wherein, each of the holding parts is provided with a Velcro part.

[0012] It also includes a left strap and a right strap respectively connecting the left secondary back panel and the right secondary back panel. Another adhesive control component is also provided at the end of the left strap and the right strap, so that each of the gripping parts can be detachably fastened to the left strap and the right strap.

[0013] Wherein, the left strap and the right strap are both elastic webbings.

[0014] Wherein, a support plate is further provided on the inner side of the left strap or the right strap.

[0068] In order to more effectively fix the left and right adjustment belts 21, 22 to the left and right auxiliary back plates 12, 13, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the left sub-back panel 12 and the right sub-back panel 13 are both provided with a plurality of positioning posts 124, 134 arranged in a transverse straight line, and the left adjustment belt 21 and the right adjustment belt 22 are both provided with a positioning hole 23a, 23b. When the left and right adjustment belts 21, 22 are adjusted into place, the positioning hole 23a of the left adjustment belt 21 can be sleeved with one of the positioning posts 124 of the left sub-back panel 12, and the positioning hole 23b of the right adjustment belt 22 can be sleeved with one of the positioning posts 134 of the right sub-back panel 13.

[0069] Through the structural design of the adjustable waist protector 1, the medical staff or the patient P can adjust the relative positions of the left and right auxiliary back panels 12, 13 relative to the main back panel 11 according to the waist circumference of the patient P and by adjusting the belt assembly 20, so that the entire back panel assembly 10 can fit the back and lower waist of the patient P, so that the adjustable waist protector 1 of this embodiment can be integrated and suitable for patients P with different waist circumferences, and can effectively support the back and lower waist muscles of the patient P.

[0070] Please refer to Figure 4 In order to allow the adjustable waist brace 1 to be fixed to the lower waist and back of the patient P during use, the adjustable waist brace 1 is further provided with a left strap 41 and a right strap 42 respectively connecting the left auxiliary back plate 12 and the right auxiliary back plate 13. The left and right straps 41, 42 can be made of elastic webbing or general inelastic webbing. The ends of the left and right straps 41, 42 are also provided with a hook and loop fastener 43a, 43b (such as Figure 5 As shown in FIG. 1 , the left and right straps 41 and 42 can be fastened to the front side of the patient's P belly by means of the hook and loop fasteners 43a and 43b when passing through the patient's P side waist. In addition, another hook and loop fastener 43c is provided on the outside of the left strap 41 and the right strap 42, and a support plate 60 (as shown in FIG. 1 ) is provided on the inside of the left strap 41.
