[0033] In order to further explain the technical solution of the present utility model, the present utility model is described in detail below through specific embodiments.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, it is a thermoplastic insole customization device involved in the utility model, including a main body 1, a heating chamber 2, a vacuum chamber 3 and an electric control unit 4, wherein the heating chamber 2 and the vacuum chamber 3 are formed on the main body 1, and the electric control unit 4 is fixedly installed on the main body 1; the upper part of the vacuum chamber 3 can be sealed and opened to form a cover plate 5; the side wall of the vacuum chamber 3 is installed with a plurality of scanning probes 31; a mold taking capsule 32 is installed in the vacuum chamber 3, and a vacuum nozzle 33 is connected to the vacuum chamber 3; a vacuum tube 34 is connected to the side of the mold taking capsule 32; a plurality of pressure sensors (not shown in the figure) are installed inside the mold taking capsule 32; the pressure sensor is electrically connected to the electric control unit 4; the scanning probe 31 is electrically connected to the electric control unit 4. When in use, the thermoplastic insole is first placed in the heating chamber 2 from both sides for heating. During the heating of the thermoplastic insole, the mold capsule 32 is smoothed and vacuumed through the vacuum tube 34. At this time, the medium in the mold capsule 32 will be in a tight and solidified state under the vacuum state. Then guide the user to move slowly barefoot to the center position on the left and right sides of the mold capsule 32. During the process, the scanning probe 31 captures the three-dimensional image of the user's foot. Release the vacuum of the mold capsule 32, the mold capsule 32 softens, and the user's foot settles naturally. After the user's foot settles to the appropriate position, the mold capsule 32 is vacuumed again to make it completely hardened. After the hardening is completed, the pressure sensor records the pressure applied by various parts of the patient's sole to the mold capsule 32. After the recording is completed, the user can leave and the molding is completed. Then place the heated and softened thermoplastic insole in the molded sole model, cover the cover plate 5, and vacuum the vacuum chamber 3 through the vacuum nozzle 33. At this time, as the air pressure decreases, the adsorption mold on the cover plate 5 will be tightly pressed on the thermoplastic insole, and the shaping of the thermoplastic insole will be completed after the thermoplastic insole is cooled and shaped. Release the vacuum and take out the thermoplastic insole. According to the pressure information of the user's sole received by the electronic control unit 4, a support structure is added to the corresponding part of the thermoplastic insole, and the thermoplastic insole is customized. The scanning probe 31 can scan the three-dimensional image information of the user's sole, and the pressure sensor can obtain the force information of different parts of the user's sole. The combination of the two can be analyzed by the algorithm of the electronic control unit 4, and the three-dimensional force state of the user's sole can be accurately and intuitively fed back, so as to more accurately add a customized support structure to the thermoplastic insole.

[0035] Preferably, the electronic control unit 4 includes a display unit 41 and a data processing unit 42; the display unit 41 is fixedly mounted on the upper surface of the main body 1; the display unit 41 and the data processing unit 42 are electrically connected; the pressure sensor is electrically connected to the data processing unit 42; the scanning probe 31 is electrically connected to the data processing unit 42. The display unit 41 can display the three-dimensional force information of the user's foot, and the operator can add corresponding customized support to the thermoplastic insole according to the displayed information, greatly improving the performance of the thermoplastic insole.

When the vacuum chamber 3 is evacuated, the adsorption film 51 will be concave and closely attached to the mold bag 32 under the action of negative pressure, so that the thermoplastic insole can be better shaped.

[0038] Preferably, the heating chamber 2 is formed by wrapping two upper and lower heating plates 21, and the outer wall of the heating plate 21 is installed with a heat insulation layer 22. By providing the heat insulation layer 22, it is possible to better gather heat and speed up the efficiency of heating the thermoplastic insole, and it is also possible to effectively prevent the heat of the heating plate 21 from being transferred to the main body 1 to avoid scalding nearby items. In addition, a temperature sensor is also installed in the heating chamber 2, and the temperature sensor is electrically connected to the electronic control unit 4. In this way, the temperature of the heating chamber 2 can be easily regulated, further improving the heating and softening effect of the thermoplastic insole.

[0039] Preferably, if Figure 4 As shown, the main body 1 is also provided with a scanning port 13, which is convenient for entering the thermoplastic insole barcode for matching authentication, and for managing and calling the user's foot information.

[0040] Preferably, a handrail 14 is installed on the main body 1, so that the user can stand more steadily when shaping the mold capsule 32, thereby improving the safety and stability of the product.
