DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution in the present application, the technical solution of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0025] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a modified delivery ball can be used for pregnant women to ride on the delivery ball and rock back and forth during uterine contractions, which can appropriately relieve pain; pregnant women can sit on the delivery ball with their backs straightened by the handrails. The specific structure adopted includes a ball rack 7, a handrail 2, a delivery ball 1 and a movable pin 6. The ball rack 7 is installed with an adjustment seat 4, and the adjustment seat 4 is provided with a swing groove 41, and multiple groups of limit hole groups 42 are distributed at intervals along the length direction of the swing groove 41. The handrail 2 includes two support rods 21 and a fixed rod 23 with a bent structure. The two support rods 21 are arranged in parallel to form a through groove 25, and are connected by the fixed rod 23, and each support rod 21 is inserted into the corresponding adjustment seat 4 and then connected by the rotating shaft 5. Multiple swing adjustment holes 26 are distributed at intervals on the support rod 21. The delivery ball 1 is movably placed on the ball rack 7 and inserted into the through groove 25, and the ball rack 7 limits the rolling of the delivery ball 1. The movable pin shaft 6 is provided with a limit hole group 42 and an adjustment hole 26 to limit the support rod 21 from swinging in the swing groove 41 .

[0026] It should be noted that the two support rods on the armrest are both bent structures, and a through groove 25 is formed between the two parallel bent support rods 21. The through groove 25 allows the armrest to be placed on the delivery ball. When a pregnant woman sits on the delivery ball facing the armrest, the pregnant belly is inserted into the through groove, which can facilitate the armrest to be close to the pregnant woman's body sitting on the delivery ball, and can facilitate the pregnant woman to sit on the delivery ball with her waist straight with the help of the armrest. It can be seen that the armrest does not hinder the pregnant belly, giving the pregnant woman a more comfortable feeling when sitting on the delivery ball, and at the same time, there is no need to worry about the armrest pressing on the pregnant belly when exercising on the delivery ball.

[0027] The movable pin 6 is a movable connection. When the movable pin 6 is movably inserted into the limit hole group 42 and the swing adjustment hole 26, the support rod 21 can be restricted from swinging relative to the adjustment seat 4. When the movable pin is pulled out from the limit hole group and the adjustment hole, the support rod 21 can swing relative to the adjustment seat 4.

[0028] It is understandable that the armrest 2 can be adjusted and swung. Specifically, when the restriction of the movable pin 6 is released (i.e., the movable pin 6 is pulled out from the adjustment seat 4 and the support rod 21), the armrest 2 can swing relative to the adjustment seat 4. When swinging, it can swing toward the delivery ball or away from the delivery ball. It is understandable that when the armrest swings, the overall height of the armrest changes with the swing. Pregnant women can adjust the armrest according to their own needs when using it.

[0029] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the limiting hole group 42 includes two limiting holes, which are opened on the adjustment seat 4 and are located on both sides of the swing slot 41 and aligned with each other. The number of the limiting hole groups can be 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 groups.

[0030] The number of adjustment holes 26 distributed on the support rod can be 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8, etc. It is understandable that the movable pin, the limit hole group and the adjustment hole cooperate with each other to adjust the support rod to form different angles of inclination relative to the adjustment seat.

[0031] Directions:

[0032] When in use, the pregnant woman can adjust the distance between the armrest and the delivery ball according to her own height. When adjusting, the movable pin 6 is pulled out, the support rod 21 is connected to the adjustment seat 4 through the rotating shaft 5, and a force is applied to the support rod 21 to swing it to a suitable position. At this time, there is a limit hole 26 on the support rod 21 corresponding to a set of limit holes 42, and then the movable pin 6 is passed through the limit hole group 42 and the limit hole 26, so that the support rod 21 is connected to the adjustment seat 4 through the movable pin.

[0033] The pregnant woman sits on the birthing ball 1 facing the armrest 2, can hold the armrest 2 with both hands, and the pregnant belly can be inserted into the through groove of the armrest. The armrest will not squeeze the pregnant belly. The armrest 2 can support the pregnant woman to sit upright on the birthing ball, and move left and right, front and back through the hips.

[0034] In some optional embodiments, a support member 3 is additionally installed. The support member 3 is adjustable and slidably installed on the armrest frame 2. The support member can support the pregnant woman sitting on the delivery ball to lean on the armrest frame. When the pregnant woman sits on the delivery ball facing the armrest frame, the pregnant woman can support her hands on the armrest frame and can also lean her chest on the support member 3 to reduce the fatigue of the pregnant woman. When the pregnant woman faces away from the armrest frame, the support member can provide the pregnant woman with a backrest.

[0035] It should be noted that the support member 3 is adjustable and slidably mounted on the armrest frame 2. When the support member is released from the restricted sliding, the support member can slide relative to the armrest frame. When the support member is adjusted to restrict sliding, the support member is fixed to the armrest frame. It is understandable that the position of the adjustable support member on the armrest frame can be adapted to pregnant women of different heights.

[0036] It should also be noted that when a pregnant woman sits facing the armrest, the support member does not prevent the pregnant belly of the pregnant woman from being inserted into the through groove 25.

[0037] In some optional embodiments, a structure of the support member 3 is provided. Figure 1-3 As shown, the support member 3 includes a support frame 32 and a cushion 31. A sliding sleeve 33 is installed on both sides of one end of the support frame 32, and an adjustable sliding member is installed on both sides of the other end. The sliding sleeve 33 is sleeved on the support rod 21, and the adjustable sliding member is connected to the support rod 21 with limited sliding; the cushion 31 is installed on the support frame 32.

[0038] A structure of an adjustable sliding member is given. Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the adjustable sliding member includes a screw rod 34, a limit plate 35 and a nut 36. A slide groove 22 is provided on the support rod 21 along the length direction, and the limit plate 35 is placed on the support rod 21. One end of the screw rod 34 passes through the slide groove 22 and the limit plate 35, and the other end is connected to the support frame 32. The nut 36 is sleeved on the screw rod 34. When the nut 36 is screwed to be close to the support rod 21, the movement of the support member 3 is limited. When the nut 36 is screwed to be separated from the support rod 21, the support member 3 can slide along the support rod 21.

[0039] The limit plate 35 is placed in the support rod 21 and can move in the support rod. When the nut 36 is screwed to be close to the support rod 21, the limit plate 35 and the nut 36 clamp the support rod 21 together, that is, the screw rod 34 is prevented from sliding along the slide groove 22, so that the movement of the support member 3 can be limited. When the nut 36 is screwed to be separated from the support rod 21, the nut 36 and the limit plate 35 are released from clamping the support rod, and the support member 3 can slide along the support rod 21.

[0040] In some embodiments, in order to provide a soft contact between the pregnant woman and the fixing rod, a soft cover 24 is additionally installed. The soft cover 24 is sleeved on the support rod 21. When the pregnant woman puts her hands, she can directly put them on the soft cover 24.

[0041] The soft cover can be made of soft rubber or wrapped with cotton cloth to provide a comfortable hand support structure for pregnant women.

[0042] In some embodiments, a knee support is also included, and the knee support can be detachably mounted on the ball frame 7. The knee support supports the pregnant woman's knees, which can help the pregnant woman lie on the delivery ball.

[0043] It is understandable that when a pregnant woman lies prone on the birthing ball, the armrest is placed on the birthing ball, which can facilitate the pregnant woman to grasp the support rods on the armrest with both hands, and can support the pregnant woman to lie prone on the birthing ball for exercise.

[0044] In some embodiments, a knee support is also included, such as Figure 1 , 2 As shown in FIG. 4 , a knee support member includes a knee support 8, a protective pad 10 and a hook 9. A hook 9 is installed at one end of the knee support 8, and a protective pad 10 is installed on the top surface. The protective pad can protect the knees. When the pregnant woman kneels on the protective pad, the protective pad can play a buffering role to prevent the knees from hard contact with the knee support.

[0045] The protective pad can be made of soft rubber, but is certainly not limited to soft rubber. It can also be a cotton pad made of multiple layers of cotton cloth.

[0046] It should be noted that the knee support is movably mounted on the ball stand. When the pregnant woman lies on the delivery ball, the knee support is mounted on the ball stand through a hook, and the pregnant woman's knees kneel on the pads on the knee support. When the pregnant woman needs to lie halfway on the delivery ball, the knee support can be removed from the ball stand, and the distance between the knee support and the delivery ball can be adjusted to a suitable distance according to the height of the pregnant woman. The knee support can prevent the pregnant woman's knees from kneeling on the ground.

[0047] like Figure 4 As shown, the top surface of the knee support 8 extends downwardly toward the end where the hook 9 is installed, approaches the end surface, and then bends upward.

[0048] The top surface of the knee brace is inclined, that is, the end of the top surface of the knee brace away from the delivery ball is higher than the end close to the delivery ball. When a pregnant woman kneels on the knee brace near delivery, the inclined top surface can raise the height of the calf, which can prevent the calf from squeezing the foot to the ground when kneeling on the knee brace.

[0049] In some optional embodiments, a structure of a ball rack is provided. Figure 1 and 2As shown, the ball rack 7 includes an upper limiting ring 71 , a lower limiting ring 72 and a vertical rod 73 . The upper limiting ring 71 and the lower limiting ring 72 are vertically spaced and arranged in parallel, and are connected by a plurality of vertical rods 73 .

[0050] The upper limiting ring 71 and the lower limiting ring 72 jointly limit the rolling of the delivery ball installed therein, which can help the pregnant woman to sit on the delivery ball and perform appropriate exercises.

[0051] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived from these are still within the scope of protection of the invention of the utility model.
