Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to a scoliosis correction soft brace. Background Art
[0002] Scoliosis mainly refers to the growth deformity of the spine in the normal position, which deviates from the center line and continues to grow and bend to both sides. Having scoliosis patients wear orthotics is a major correction method for scoliosis. However, most existing scoliosis orthotics are in the form of a whole vest, such as the common hard Boston brace, which covers a large area of the patient's torso when used, is heavy and has poor wearing comfort. Utility Model Content
[0003] The utility model aims to provide a scoliosis correction soft brace, which is easy to wear and adjust, convenient for patients to operate by themselves, and is lightweight and breathable, ensuring comfortable wearing.
[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a scoliosis correction soft brace, including a soft support sheet, a hard support strip, a chest adjustment belt, a support connection belt, a leg ring belt, and a reinforcement belt, wherein:
[0005] The soft support sheet surrounds and covers the patient's chest and above, and a first Velcro is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the chest in front of the soft support sheet; the soft support sheet provides soft support for the upper body, especially the back part of the spine.
[0006] The hard support bar is vertically embedded in the back of the soft support sheet and directly facing the patient's back spine; the hard support bar ensures that the spine is stably supported during the correction process;
[0007] One end of the chest adjustment strap is fixedly connected to the back of the soft support piece, and the other end is wrapped around the front chest of the soft support piece and movably connected to the front chest of the soft support piece through the first Velcro; the chest adjustment strap is used in conjunction with the first Velcro to adjust the tightness of the chest support part, i.e., the soft support piece, to ensure that the brace fits closely to the patient's body curve, provides uniform pressure, and ensures that the brace can adapt to patients of different body shapes.
[0008] The leg ring belt is wrapped around one thigh of the patient, and the outer surfaces of the front and rear of the leg ring belt are fixedly installed with a second Velcro; the leg ring belt provides additional stability and support, and in specific implementation, comfortable elastic materials can be used to ensure that the patient's movement is not restricted during wearing.
[0009] There are two support connecting straps, wherein the upper end of the rear support connecting strap is fixedly connected to the back of the soft support sheet, and the lower end is movably connected to the rear of the leg ring strap through the second Velcro; the upper end of the front support connecting strap is fixedly connected to the front chest of the soft support sheet, and the lower end is movably connected to the front of the leg ring strap through the second Velcro; the outer surfaces of the lower ends of the two support connecting straps are fixedly installed with third Velcro; the connecting support strap connects the soft support sheet and the leg ring strap, further improving the overall stability of the brace and ensuring the correction effect;
[0010] The reinforcement belt is installed around the outer surface of the leg ring belt, and its two ends are movably connected to the leg ring belt through the second Velcro at the front and rear, and its two ends are also movably connected to the two support connecting belts through the third Velcro at the front and rear. The reinforcement belt connects the support connecting belt and the leg ring belt to provide additional support and stability, ensuring the safety of the brace during use.
[0011] Furthermore, the number of the reinforcement belts is two.
[0012] In this way, the fixation of the leg ring belt is more stable.
[0013] Furthermore, a flexible pressure sensor is provided, and the flexible pressure sensor is fixedly mounted on the inner side of the upper part of the rear supporting connecting belt.
[0014] Flexible pressure sensors can collect and monitor the patient's spinal stress in real time. Relying on flexible pressure sensors and self-built intelligent databases to collect data information on the entire rehabilitation process of patients, general assessment and monitoring feedback of the entire rehabilitation process can be achieved. The pressure data collected by the flexible pressure sensor is transmitted to the corresponding posture assessment APP on the mobile phone for analysis to achieve online assessment. At the same time, guidance is provided based on the patient's real-time data to guide the patient to adjust the tightness of the soft brace and correct the support force.
[0015] Furthermore, the inner and outer surfaces of the soft supporting sheet and the supporting connecting belt are respectively provided with an inner skin-contacting layer and an outer protective layer.
[0016] Furthermore, the inner skin-contacting layer is made of modal fiber, and the outer protective layer is made of spandex material.
[0017] The inner skin-contacting layer made of modal fiber has the advantages of high skin affinity and strong moisture absorption and perspiration, ensuring the comfort of patients when wearing it. The inner skin-contacting layer covers the inside of the brace, fits the patient's skin, and provides a comfortable contact surface for the inside of the brace. The outer protective layer made of spandex material has the advantages of high elasticity and wear resistance and wrinkle resistance, ensuring the durability and comfort of the brace. The outer protective layer covers the outside of the brace, providing solid protection for the brace.
[0018] Furthermore, the soft supporting sheet is made of polyurethane foam material, which can increase wearing comfort and air permeability.
[0019] Furthermore, the hard support bar is made of carbon fiber material.
[0020] Furthermore, one side of the front and rear parts of the soft supporting sheet also extends upwards respectively and is connected at the top to form a shoulder strap and a cuff.
[0021] This makes the brace more stable to wear and less likely to slip.
[0022] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0023] The brace provides appropriate pressure support and guidance through the combined action of soft support sheets and hard support strips, which can assist in correcting the patient's scoliosis problem; its lightweight and breathable design ensures comfortable wearing and is not prone to skin problems; the chest adjustment strap, reinforcement strap and Velcro design are convenient for patients to operate by themselves, easy to wear and adjust; the flexible pressure sensor can collect and monitor the patient's spinal force in real time, realize general assessment and monitoring feedback throughout the rehabilitation process, and facilitate the guidance of patients to adjust the tightness of the soft brace and the corrective support force. The utility model provides an effective and user-friendly correction solution for patients with scoliosis. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
