[0036] Embodiment 1:

[0037] This embodiment provides a fracture fixation splint having the following technical features.

[0038] See also Figure 1-6 A fracture fixation splint, comprising a splint group for fixing a limb 4 and a winding belt 3 for fixing the splint group, the splint group comprising a starting splint 1 and at least one over-line splint 2, the starting splint 1 and the over-line splint 2 are both rectangular plate structures, the starting splint 1 and the over-line splint 2 are respectively provided with symmetrical starting locking structures 10 and over-line locking structures 20 at both ends, the starting locking structure 10 and the over-line locking structure 20 both include:

[0039] The side groove 11 is a deep groove with three sides open, used for passing the winding belt 3, wherein the three sides of the opening include the end face and two sides in the winding direction of the winding belt 3;

[0040] The top groove 12 is arranged on the top of the side groove 11 and is a through-hole groove with two open sides, wherein the two open sides include a top surface and a bottom surface connected to the side groove 11, and a rotating shaft 13 is arranged in the top groove 12;

[0041] An eccentric rotating wheel 14 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 13. The eccentric rotating wheel 14 rotates eccentrically around the rotating shaft 13 to fix the winding belt 3. A long rod 15 is also fixed to the eccentric rotating wheel 14.

[0042] The eccentric rotating wheel 14 in the starting point locking structure 10 is fixed at a fixed position on the rotating shaft 13 and rotates eccentrically, and the eccentric rotating wheel 14 in the side groove 11 slides forward and backward while eccentrically rotating on the rotating shaft 13 .

[0043] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 1-6 As shown, both ends of the eccentric wheel 14 in the starting point locking structure 10 are provided with limit rings 17 on the rotating shaft 13, and the limit rings 17 are fixed on the rotating shaft 13 to limit the movement of the eccentric wheel 14, so that the eccentric wheel 14 is located at a fixed position and rotates; both ends of the eccentric wheel 14 in the line-passing locking structure 20 are provided with elastic devices 27, one end of the elastic device 27 is pressed against the shell of the line-passing clamp 2, and the other end of the elastic device 27 is pressed against the end face of the limit ring 17, so that the eccentric wheel 14 has elasticity while sliding on the rotating shaft 13.

[0044] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 1-6 As shown, a starting point fixing block 18 is also provided on the starting point clamp 1. The starting point fixing block 18 is arranged at both ends of the starting point clamp 1 close to the side groove 11. A through hole that is larger than the winding belt 3 is provided in the starting point fixing block 18. The starting point fixing block 18 is also provided with a knob for fixing the end of the winding belt 3.

[0045] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 1-6 As shown, a positioning hole is also provided at the end of the winding belt 3 , and the knob passes through the positioning hole to fix the end of the winding belt 3 in the starting point fixing block 18 .

[0046] It should be noted that when there is one positioning hole, it is set at a position corresponding to the middle of the end of the winding belt 3 , and when there are multiple positioning holes, they need to be symmetrically distributed to improve the stability of the winding belt 3 .

[0047] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 1-6 As shown, shallow grooves 16 are provided on the starting splint 1 and the line-crossing splint 2 at positions corresponding to the long rod 15 . When the long rod 15 is folded, it is hidden in the shallow groove 16 . When the long rod 15 is folded, the farthest end of the eccentric wheel 14 is against the winding belt 3 in the side groove 11 .

[0048] It should be noted that when the long rod 15 is stuck in the shallow groove 16, the eccentric wheel 14 presses against the winding belt 3. When the long rod 15 rotates to be perpendicular to the top surface of the starting clamp 1 or the passing clamp 2, the long rod 15 is separated from the winding belt 3.

[0049] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 1-6 As shown, the outer ring of the eccentric wheel 14 is made of elastic rubber material to increase the friction between the eccentric wheel 14 and the winding belt 3 to prevent the winding belt 3 from loosening.

[0050] It should be noted that, in addition to rubber, the material of the eccentric wheel 14 can also be other elastic materials, such as silicone, etc., or hard materials, such as metal, etc., and textures or granular textures can be added on the surface to increase friction.

[0051] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 5 As shown, an inclined surface is provided at the end of the long rod 15 to facilitate the rotation of the long rod 15.

[0052] It should be noted that the end of the long rod 15 is an inclined surface to avoid inconvenience in taking out the long rod 15 when it is folded in the shallow groove 16 . The inclined surface of the long rod 15 is located on the side close to the shallow groove 16 .

[0053] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the wrapping belt 3 is an inelastic cloth belt, which improves the fixing effect and the breathability at the same time.

[0054] It should be noted that when using a cloth belt, a metal ring needs to be provided at the positioning hole at the end to improve durability.

[0055] Working principle: During installation, first fix the ends of the two wrapping belts 3 in the starting point fixing block 18, then rotate the long rods 15 on the starting point splint 1 and the line-crossing splint 2 to a position perpendicular to the top surfaces of the starting point splint 1 and the line-crossing splint 2, then place the starting point splint 1 and multiple line-crossing splints 2 at corresponding positions on the limb 4, and pass the wrapping belt 3 through the side grooves 11 on the line-crossing splint 2 in turn. Since the side grooves 11 are provided with openings at the ends, the wrapping belt 3 can be directly inserted into the side grooves 11 from the side, and the wrapping belt 3 passes through the line-crossing splint 2 and then goes around and returns to the side grooves 11 of the starting point splint 1. After tightening the wrapping belt 3 to a comfortable tightness, rotate the long rod 15 on the starting point splint 1 to fix the other end of the wrapping belt 3 on the side grooves 11 in the starting point splint 1, and finally rotate the long rod 15 on the line-crossing splint 2 into the shallow groove 16 to fix each line-crossing splint 2 on the wrapping belt 3;

[0056] When the tightness needs to be adjusted, the long rod 15 on the starting clamp 1 is rotated to change the tightness of the winding belt 3. Since elastic devices 27 are set at both ends of the eccentric wheel 14 in the line clamp 2, the elastic devices 27 at both ends are in a balanced state before the tightness is adjusted. After the tightness is adjusted, due to the change in tension, the position of the eccentric wheel 14 on the line clamp 2 will automatically change to balance the tension at both ends of the eccentric wheel 14, thereby avoiding the displacement of the line clamp 2 after adjusting the tightness of the winding belt 3. It should be noted that.

[0057] To sum up, the fracture fixation splint is provided with side grooves 11 with three openings at both ends of the starting splint 1 and the passing line splint 2. The winding belt 3 can be directly inserted into the side groove 11 from the side of the side groove 11, and the operation is simple and convenient. An eccentric wheel 14 is installed in the top groove 12 set on the top of the side groove 11. The eccentric wheel 14 rotates eccentrically around the rotating shaft 13. The purpose of clamping and loosening the winding belt 3 can be achieved by controlling the long rod 15 on the eccentric wheel 14. The operation is simple and convenient.

[0058] The fracture fixation splint is manufactured by fixing the eccentric wheel 14 in the starting splint 1 at a fixed position in the top groove 12 and rotating it, and elastically connecting the eccentric wheel 14 in the line-crossing splint 2 to the rotating shaft 13 and rotating it. The eccentric wheel 14 in the line-crossing splint 2 can move back and forth on the rotating shaft 13 after clamping the winding belt 3. When the tightness needs to be adjusted, only the winding belt 3 in the starting splint 1 needs to be adjusted. Under the action of the elastic device 27, the eccentric wheel 14 in the line-crossing splint 2 automatically adjusts its position to balance the tension at both ends, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the tightness and preventing the line-crossing splint 2 from shifting its position.

[0059] The fracture fixation splint has a starting point fixing block 18 disposed on the starting point splint 1. The starting point fixing block 18 is used to fix the end of the winding belt 3, thereby improving the stability of the winding belt 3 and strengthening the clamping and fixing effect of the starting point splint 1 and the crossing line splint 2.

[0060] It should be noted that, in this article, relational terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. In the absence of further restrictions, the elements defined by the sentence "comprise a ..." do not exclude the existence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the elements.

[0061] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
