Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of measuring instruments, in particular to a forearm rotation angle measuring instrument. Background Art
[0002] The human forearm has the ability to rotate, and this rotation function enables the hand to flexibly perform grasping actions in various directions. The rotation movements of the forearm are mainly divided into pronation and supination. Under normal circumstances, the angle range of pronation is between 0° and 90°, while the angle range of supination is between 0° and 100°. The normal rotation function of the forearm depends on the intact connection of the ulna and radius and the normal contraction of the forearm rotation muscle group. However, in orthopedic diseases, such as congenital radio-ulnar synostosis, elbow joint stiffness, ulna and radius fractures, heterotopic ossification, etc., these diseases may cause the rotation function of the patient's forearm to be impaired or completely lost, thus affecting their daily self-care ability.
[0003] For these patients, doctors need to evaluate the rotation function of their forearms before and after treatment in order to formulate precise treatment and rehabilitation goals and evaluate the treatment effects. At present, the methods for clinically evaluating the rotation function of the forearm usually require the patient to flex both elbows at 90 degrees and close them to the trunk, hold a pen or other straight thin rod with both hands, and then perform pronation and supination actions under the guidance of a doctor. The doctor estimates the rotation angles of both forearms by observing the rotation angle of the object. However, this method has some problems, such as the visual evaluation results being relatively subjective, the estimation being rough and unable to provide precise numerical values, and the measurement efficiency being relatively low.
[0004] Therefore, in order to more accurately obtain the numerical value of the forearm rotation angle, we need a forearm rotation angle measuring instrument that can directly and precisely read the numerical value. This measuring instrument will greatly improve the accuracy and efficiency of forearm rotation function evaluation and provide more precise treatment and rehabilitation guidance for patients.

[0041] As Figures 1 to 8 shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a forearm rotation angle measuring instrument, including an installation housing 100 and an indicating assembly.
[0042] The indicating assembly includes a pointer 200, a rotating shaft 220 and a gravity hammer 240. The rotating shaft 220 is rotatably installed on the installation housing 100. The pointer 200 is vertically and fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 220. The pointer 200 has two ends, and the two ends of the pointer 200 are respectively a first end and a second end. As Figure 1 shown, an arrow is provided on the first end of the pointer 200, and a gravity hammer 240 is fixedly connected to the second end of the pointer 200.
[0043] During the rotation of the mounting housing 100, the gravity hammer 240 keeps the pointer 200 parallel to the vertical direction.
[0044] Exemplarily, as Figure 1 shown, a scale dial 260 is provided on the mounting housing 100. The scale dial 260 is fixedly connected to the mounting housing 100 by means such as welding, gluing, snap connection or bolt connection. The rotation of the mounting housing 100 drives the rotation of the scale dial 260. Digital scales are provided on the scale dial 260, and the digital scales include 0° to 180° clockwise and 0° to 180° counterclockwise. Exemplarily, a groove is formed on the mounting housing 100, and the shape of the groove is adapted to the shape of the scale dial 260.
[0045] Exemplarily, a rotation through hole is provided on the scale dial 260, and the rotation shaft 220 passes through the mating through hole of the mounting housing and the rotation through hole of the scale dial.
[0046] During use, initially, as Figure 1 shown, the subject holds the mounting housing 100, and the subject's forearm rotates the mounting housing 100 to the state as Figure 7 shown. The pointer 200 remains vertical under the action of the gravity hammer 240, that is, under the action of the gravity hammer, the pointer 200 always remains parallel to the gravity direction, and the mounting housing 100 rotates relative to the pointer 200 and the gravity hammer 240. The rotation of the mounting housing 100 drives the rotation of the scale dial 260, and the pointer 200 can point to the numbers on the scale dial 260 to display the rotation angle.
[0047] Exemplarily, a mating through hole is provided on the mounting housing 100, and the rotation shaft 220 is rotatably mounted on the mounting housing 100 at the mating through hole. Exemplarily, a bearing is sleeved on the rotation shaft 220, and the bearing is mounted at the mating through hole to reduce the rotational friction of the rotation shaft 220.
[0048] Exemplarily, the shape of the scale dial 260 is not limited. Exemplarily, the scale dial 260 is circular or polygonal, etc.
[0049] In the embodiment of the present application, the provided mounting housing 100 provides a grasping position for the subject. The rotation of the subject's forearm drives the rotation of the mounting housing 100. During the rotation of the mounting housing 100, the pointer 200 is subjected to the acting force of the gravity hammer 240 to keep the pointer 200 vertical. By measuring the rotation angle of the mounting housing 100 relative to the pointer 200, the rotation angle of the subject's forearm is further measured.
[0050] In one embodiment, as Figure 1As shown, a guiding column 150 is fixedly arranged on the mounting housing 100. The guiding column 150 is fixedly mounted on the mounting housing 100 by means of welding, bolt connection, clamping, integral molding, gluing, etc., and the rotation of the mounting housing 100 drives the guiding column 150 to rotate. When the angle of rotation of the mounting housing 100 relative to the pointer 200 is 0°, the mounting housing 100 is in the initial position and the initial state. Among them, the guiding column 150 is in the uppermost position of the mounting housing 100; the tester can drive the guiding column 150 to rotate by rotating the mounting housing 100. The doctor can guide the tester to make the actions of pronation or supination of the forearm through the guiding column 150, and the guiding column 150 can provide a reference for the tester.
[0051] Exemplarily, as Figure 1 shown, the mounting housing is configured as a gourd-shaped housing structure. In another embodiment, as Figure 8 shown, the mounting housing is configured as a cylindrical housing structure. During the rotation of the cylindrical housing of the mounting housing, the change in the center of gravity is small, and the interference of the gravity of the mounting housing on the forearm of the tester is small, and the test result is more accurate.
[0052] As Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, in one embodiment, the forearm rotation angle measuring instrument further includes a traction ring body 300.

In another embodiment, the traction ring body 300 is fixedly connected to the mounting housing 100 by means of welding, gluing, clamping or bolt connection, etc. The rotation of the mounting housing 100 drives the traction ring body 300 to rotate.
[0054] The traction ring body 300 and the rotating shaft 220 are coaxially arranged on the mounting housing 100. As Figure 1 shown, the gravity hammer 240 and the pointer 200 are located inside the ring body of the traction ring body 300.
[0055] The traction ring body 300 and the gravity hammer 240 are made of magnetic materials, so that the traction ring body 300 and the gravity hammer 240 attract each other to reduce the reciprocating swing amplitude of the gravity hammer 240 and the pointer 200 and improve the ability to resist external force interference.
