[0002] The knee joint has the largest articular surface in the human body, and its normal function is crucial to the load-bearing capacity. Knee joint injury is one of the most common problems for adults and adolescents with high activity levels. In knee joint rehabilitation treatment, the knee joint needs to be trained with auxiliary materials to meet the effect of normal knee joint exercise. A good knee joint rehabilitation training component can effectively reduce the labor intensity of medical staff and facilitate users.

[0003] The utility model provides a hydraulic knee joint orthosis device (CN215584509U), including a thigh support; a calf support; a pair of intermediate connecting parts, which are arranged in parallel and respectively connected to the thigh support and the calf support. The intermediate connecting part includes an upper hydraulic rod, an intermediate connecting plate, and a lower hydraulic rod which are connected in sequence; the upper hydraulic rod is assembled and connected to the thigh support; the lower hydraulic rod is assembled and connected to the calf support; the intermediate connecting plate is provided with upper and lower limit buckles, which rotate coaxially with the upper hydraulic rod and the lower hydraulic rod respectively, so as to adjust the rotation of the upper and lower hydraulic rods by adjusting the limit buckles. The utility model provides that after patients with knee joint diseases wear the device, the pressure between the narrower side of the knee joint compartment is significantly reduced, the disease is prevented from further deteriorating, and surgical treatment is delayed or avoided; the biomechanical line of the lower limbs is effectively corrected, and the pain of the patient is relieved. The innovation of the intermediate hydraulic rod provides a more convenient orthosis adjustment device, which changes the joint angle adjustment from manual to automatic, thereby reducing the adjustment time for the patient. However, during use, the microcontroller is required to accurately control the ejection and retraction of the hydraulic system. When the hydraulic system exceeds the predetermined range, it may cause the knee joint to exercise beyond the range, leading to worsening of the knee joint condition, and even causing irreversible medical accidents, causing trouble to the user.

[0004] To this end, we propose a knee rehabilitation training driver. Utility Model Content

The upper limb frame 1, the lower limb frame 5 and the restraint belt 6 are ergonomically designed, and the arc surface design can be well connected with the thigh and calf above and below the knee joint, meeting the demand for restraining the lower limbs, making it convenient for users to wear the knee joint rehabilitation training frame and use it conveniently.

[0022] Example 2

[0023] See also Figure 1-3 The utility model provides a technical solution: a knee joint rehabilitation training driver, wherein movable plates 21 are inserted into both sides of the middle of the connecting arm 2, and a positioning column 23 is fixed to the rear end of the middle of the connecting arm 2, and the positioning column 23 is connected to the inner cover 22 on the side away from the connecting arm 2, and the inner cover 22 covers the connecting gear 42 and the toothless gear 43, and the positioning shaft 24 is fixedly connected to the side away from the transmission shaft 41 of the connecting arm 2, and the outer wall of the positioning shaft 24 is movably connected to the toothless gear 43, and the connecting arm 2 serves as an upper limb frame 1 and a lower limb frame 5. The connecting component is connected to the upper limb frame 1 in a fixed connection manner to meet the user's needs for moving the knee joint. At the same time, in order to reduce the pressure on the side of the knee joint, the inner cover 22 with a smooth surface design can reduce the friction damage caused by the movement of the knee joint rehabilitation training frame. At the same time, in order to ensure the rationality of the overall structure, the inner cover 22 covers the connecting gear 42 and the toothless gear 43, and the outer wall of the positioning shaft 24 is movably connected with the toothless gear 43 to ensure that the overall structure can be effectively used. The upper limb frame 1 is connected to the upper limb frame 1 through the micro motor. 4 is connected to the lower limb frame 5 for transmission. When the user needs to perform automatic rehabilitation training of the knee joint through the transmission of the micromotor 4, the micromotor 4 can be started, and the micromotor 4 rotates clockwise to drive the transmission shaft 41 to rotate axially. At the same time, the connecting gear 42 drives the toothless gear 43 to rotate counterclockwise. When the toothless gear 43 rotates to the extreme position, there is no gear at the bottom of the toothless gear 43 to continue to provide the connecting gear 42 for meshing transmission. At this time, the rotation angle between the lower limb frame 5 and the upper limb frame 1 is 60-90° to meet the needs of knee joint exercise. At the same time, when the micromotor 4 rotates counterclockwise, the toothless gear 43 rotates clockwise. At this time, the angle between the lower limb frame 5 and the upper limb frame 1 is below the horizontal plane. Due to the design of the toothless gear 43, the overall exercise range of the knee joint is 0°-90°, and there will be no over-range exercise, which may lead to the possibility of worsening of the knee joint condition. At the same time, the exercise equipment uses a transmission system as power, and there is no need for rehabilitation nursing physicians to manually exercise the patient's knee joint, which reduces the labor intensity of rehabilitation nursing physicians and is convenient for users to use.

[0024] Working principle: For this type of knee joint rehabilitation training driver, the upper limb frame 1 and the lower limb frame 5 are first worn along the thigh and calf above and below the knee joint through the constraint belt 6. At this time, the micro motor 4 can be started, and the micro motor 4 rotates clockwise, driving the transmission shaft 41 to rotate axially. At the same time, the connecting gear 42 drives the toothless gear 43 to rotate counterclockwise. When the toothless gear 43 rotates to the extreme position, there is no gear at the bottom of the toothless gear 43 to continue to provide the connecting gear 42 for meshing transmission. At this time, the rotation angle between the lower limb frame 5 and the upper limb frame 1 is 60-90° to meet the needs of knee joint exercise. At the same time, when the micro motor 4 rotates counterclockwise, the toothless gear 43 rotates clockwise. Finally, the angle between the lower limb frame 5 and the upper limb frame 1 is below the horizontal plane, and the knee joint exercise can be repeated many times.
