Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of rehabilitation training, in particular to a training protection component and gait training equipment. Background Art

[0002] In the case of motor nerve center defects, the human body's gait will be affected. Gait training equipment can be used to assist in the treatment of people with motor nerve diseases such as nerve trauma, neurological atrophy, neurological diseases, and pain symptoms. Especially for patients with Parkinson's disease, gait training plays an important role in Parkinson's disease management. The reasons are as follows: Parkinson's disease affects the patient's balance and posture control. Gait training can help improve these problems and reduce the risk of falling. Gait training helps to enhance the patient's muscle strength and flexibility, and reduce muscle stiffness and limited mobility. Parkinson's disease affects the patient's gait and walking ability. Training can help them better control their movements and improve walking efficiency and stability.

[0003] After searching, the publication (announcement) number is CN219272062U, a gait rehabilitation training device is provided with a treadmill, a strap and an elastic support roller, etc. During gait rehabilitation training, the columns on both sides of the door-shaped bracket are slid close to the chest and back of the human body, which does not affect the walking of the human body, and the elastic support roller can support and protect the human body.

[0004] The above technical solution uses an elastic support roller to protect the patient from injury during training. However, when the patient falls forward during training, if he fails to hold the elastic support roller in time, he will collide with it and cause injury to the patient. Patients undergoing gait training often react slowly and cannot hold the elastic support rod when they fall. Therefore, this type of technical solution has considerable safety hazards. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to overcome the problem in the prior art that a patient falling forward is prone to collide with a protective structure, posing a potential safety hazard. We provide a training protection component and a gait training device.

[0006] The purpose of the utility model is achieved in this way:

[0007] A gait training device, comprising a treadmill;

[0008] A support base is installed on the left and right sides of the middle of the treadmill; the support base can move forward and backward along the treadmill;

[0009] A training protection component is installed on the top of the support seat.

[0010] Furthermore, a training protection assembly comprises a support frame, wherein an upper mounting seat is arranged at the top center of the support frame, a connecting piece is installed in the mounting seat, and the other end of the connecting piece is connected to the lower mounting seat, the connecting piece comprises a plurality of connecting plates, connecting rods, and connecting shafts, the connecting plates and the connecting rods are arranged alternately, the connecting plates and the upper mounting seat are rotatably connected via the connecting shafts, the connecting plates and the connecting rods are rotatably connected via the connecting shafts, the connecting rods and the lower mounting seat are rotatably connected via the connecting shafts, and one end of each connecting shaft is equipped with an electromagnetic brake;

[0011] Furthermore, a fixing piece is provided at the other end of the lower end mounting seat.

[0012] Furthermore, the fixing device includes a back plate, a chest strap, a buckle, and a shoulder strap. The lower end mounting seat is arranged at the rear center of the back plate, both ends of the back plate are connected to the chest strap, the outer ends of the two chest straps are detachably connected by the buckle, and the shoulder strap is arranged above the chest strap.

[0013] Furthermore, an acceleration sensor is installed on the rear side of the fixing member.

[0014] Furthermore, the support frame is a U-shaped structure.

[0015] Furthermore, a handrail is installed in the middle of the support frame.

The limiting bolt is installed at the rear end of the armrest frame to limit the rotation of the armrest frame, and the other end of the armrest frame is covered with the protective cover.

[0017] Advantages of this utility model:

[0018] 1. The technical solution of the present application can have two solutions during gait training. One is that the electromagnetic brake is locked, and the connecting piece is a rigid structure that cannot change its shape and position. At this time, the patient can only swing the lower limbs to walk and cannot change the position of the upper body during gait training; the other is that the electromagnetic brake is released, and the connecting piece is a flexible structure. The connecting plate and the connecting rod can rotate around the connection, thereby changing the shape and position of the connecting piece. At this time, the patient can perform gait training while the lower limbs are walking, and the upper body can move within a certain range, and the maximum moving distance is the straight length of the connecting piece. Both solutions can prevent the patient from colliding with the training equipment when falling forward during training. This ensures that there are no safety hazards for patients during gait training.

[0019] 2. The technical solution of this application limits the maximum range of movement of the patient through the connecting piece. Compared with the elastic rope, it avoids the problem that long-term use leads to reduced elasticity and increased range of motion, which makes it easy to collide with the training equipment when falling.

[0029] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0030] The embodiments of the present application provide a training protection component and a gait training device.

[0031] Embodiment 1, as Figure 1-3 shown.

[0032] A gait training device comprises a treadmill 1, wherein the treadmill 1 is preferably a treadmill 1 with adjustable speed.

[0033] The treadmill 1 also includes a support base 2 installed on the left and right sides of the middle of the treadmill 1, and a training protection component 3 installed on the top of the support base 2. The support base 2 can move forward and backward along the treadmill 1, so as to adjust the position of the training protection component 3 to adapt to patients of different body shapes and protect the patients' gait training.

[0034] The training protection assembly 3 includes a support frame 31, and the support frame 31 is a U-shaped structure. Both ends of the support frame 31 are installed above the support seat 2. An upper mounting seat 32 is arranged at the center of the top of the support frame 31, and a connecting member 33 is installed in the upper mounting seat 32. The other end of the connecting member 33 is connected to a lower mounting seat 34, and the other end of the lower mounting seat 34 is provided with a fixing member 4, and the fixing member 4 is worn on the upper body of the patient who needs to be trained.

[0035] The connecting member 33 includes a plurality of connecting plates 331, connecting rods 332, and connecting shafts 333. The connecting plates 331 and the connecting rods 332 are arranged alternately. The connecting plates 331 and the upper mounting seat 32 are rotatably connected by the connecting shafts 333. The connecting plates 331 and the connecting rods 332 are rotatably connected by the connecting shafts 333. The connecting rods 332 and the lower mounting seat 34 are rotatably connected by the connecting shafts 333. An electromagnetic brake 334 is installed at one end of each connecting shaft 333. When the patient is performing gait training, the electromagnetic brake 334 releases the brake, so that the connecting plates 331 and the connecting rods 332 can rotate around the connection, and at this time, it is convenient for the patient to wear the fixing member 4. After the fixing member 4 is worn, there are two gait training schemes. One is that the electromagnetic brake 334 is locked, and the connecting member 33 is a rigid structure and cannot change its shape or position. At this time, the patient can only swing the lower limbs to walk during gait training, but cannot change the position of the upper body; the other is that the electromagnetic brake 334 is released, and the connecting piece 33 is a flexible structure. The connecting plate 331 and the connecting rod 332 can rotate around the connection, thereby changing the shape and position of the connecting piece 33. At this time, the patient can perform gait training while the lower limbs are walking, and the upper body can move within a certain range, and the maximum moving distance is the straight length of the connecting piece 33; these two schemes can prevent the patient from colliding with the training equipment when falling forward during training during gait training. This ensures that there are no safety hazards for patients during gait training.

[0036] The fixing member 4 includes a back plate 41, a chest strap 42, a buckle 43, and a shoulder strap 44. The lower end mounting seat 34 is arranged at the rear center of the back plate 41. Both ends of the back plate 41 are connected to the chest strap 42. The outer ends of the two chest straps 42 are detachably connected through the buckle 43. The shoulder strap 44 is arranged above the chest strap 42. When the patient wears the device, the arm passes under the shoulder strap 44, and the two chest straps 42 go around the patient's upper body and are connected together in front of the body by the buckle 43 to complete the wearing process.

[0037] Furthermore, an acceleration sensor 5 is installed at the rear side of the fixing member 4. The acceleration sensor 5 is used to monitor the patient's gait training process in real time. When the patient falls during training, the acceleration sensor 5 detects it in time and sends a signal. At this time, all the electromagnetic brakes 334 brake, so that the connecting member 33 is locked and the position of the patient's upper body is fixed. This prevents the patient from falling and colliding with the training equipment, causing harm to the patient.

[0038] Furthermore, an armrest 6 is installed in the middle of the support frame 31. When the patient is standing unsteadily, the patient can hold the armrest 6 to perform gait training.

[0039] The armrest 6 includes an armrest frame 61, a protective cover 62, and a limiting bolt 63. The middle part of the support frame 31 is rotatably connected to the armrest frame 61. There are two armrest frames 61, one on the left and one on the right, located on both sides of the support frame 31. The limiting bolt 63 is installed at the rear end of the armrest frame 61 to limit the rotation of the armrest frame 61. The other end of the armrest frame 61 covers the protective cover 62. Loosen the limiting bolt 63, rotate the armrest frame 61, adjust its position, and facilitate the patient to hold the armrest by hand during training. After the position adjustment is completed, tighten the limiting bolt 63.

[0040] When the utility model is in use:

[0041] The position of the training protection component is adjusted according to the patient's body. Then the fixing piece is worn on the patient's upper body. Then a gait training mode is selected according to the patient's physical training condition, and the electromagnetic brake is released or braked.

[0042] At the same time, the position of the armrest is adjusted according to the patient's condition.
