[0020] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Embodiment 1

[0022] As Figures 1 - 3 shown, the present utility model provides a technical solution: a foot drop correction brace, including: a nursing mechanism 2, the nursing mechanism 2 is provided with a foot wearing sock 21, an inner wearing chamber 22 is provided inside the foot wearing sock 21, the inner side of the foot wearing sock 21 is adhesively connected to the inner side of a memory sponge 24, the outer surface of the memory sponge 24 is adhesively connected to the inner side of a contact layer 23, the outside of the contact layer 23 is arranged inside the wearing chamber 22, one side of the wearing chamber 22 is provided with an inlet groove, the inlet groove is opened on one side of the foot wearing sock 21, the top side of the foot wearing sock 21 is fixedly connected to the bottom of a rubber sleeve layer 25, one side of the rubber sleeve layer 25 is fixedly connected to an air cushion 26, one side of the air cushion 26 is fixedly connected to an air valve 27, and one side of the air cushion 26 is fixedly connected to an air tube 28.

[0023] In this embodiment, the provided nursing mechanism 2 can provide foot care and a more comfortable wearing experience. The overall material of the foot wearing sock 21 is made of spandex material, which has high flexibility. During the process of the patient wearing it, it can adapt to the shape and size of the patient's foot by itself. The foot wearing sock 21 provides a connecting effect for the memory sponge 24, and the memory sponge 24 and the contact layer 23 are connected to each other. When the patient wears it, it enters the wearing chamber 22 through the inlet groove opened on the foot wearing sock 21. During the entering process, the heel will contact the contact layer 23. The overall material of the contact layer 23 is made of soft and breathable fabric. When the patient's heel contacts the contact layer 23, it will contact the wearing chamber 22 and apply pressure to it. When the wearing chamber 22 is under pressure, it will deform, and under long-term contact, it will make an adaptive adjustment through its unique memory. The foot wearing sock 21 provides a fixing effect for the rubber sleeve layer 25. The overall toughness of the rubber sleeve layer 25 is relatively high, and when the foot wearing sock 21 is lifted or tilted backward, it will deform at this time and provide a stable connecting effect. The rubber sleeve layer 25 provides a fixing effect for the air cushion 26. When the foot wearing sock 21 is tilted backward, pressure will be applied to the air cushion 26 through the rubber sleeve layer 25 at this time. When the air cushion 26 is under pressure, it will deform and perform the effect of gas transmission. The air cushion 26 can perform the effect of air inlet and outlet through the connected air valve 27, and the air cushion 26 can provide the effect of gas transmission through the connected air tube 28.

[0024] Embodiment 2

[0025] As shown Figures 1 - 3 in the figure, a wearing mechanism 1 is provided on the inner side of the top of the rubber sleeve layer 25. The wearing mechanism 1 includes a below-knee wearing sock 11. The outer surface of the bottom of the below-knee wearing sock 11 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the top of the rubber sleeve layer 25. A connection groove is formed on one side of the below-knee wearing sock 11, and the inner wall of the connection groove is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the air pipe 28. An air cushion lining 12 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the below-knee wearing sock 11. A wearing end 13 is provided on the top of the air cushion lining 12. An air groove is formed on one side of the air cushion lining 12, and the inner wall of the air groove is fixedly connected to the output end of the air pipe 28. The overall material of the below-knee wearing sock 11 is made of spandex material. An anti-abrasion layer is fixedly connected to the inner side of the air cushion lining 12, and the anti-abrasion layer is made of nylon material.

[0026] In this embodiment, the provided wearing mechanism 1 can provide a comfortable wearing experience. The rubber sleeve layer 25 provides the function of connecting the below-knee wearing sock 11. The below-knee wearing sock 11 can allow the air pipe 28 to penetrate into it and be fixed through the formed connection groove. The below-knee wearing sock 11 provides the function of fixing the air cushion lining 12. When gas enters the air cushion lining 12, it will be inflated. When it is inflated, after the patient wears it through the wearing end 13, it will come into contact with the anti-abrasion layer provided on the air cushion lining 12, and the anti-abrasion layer will provide a breathable and comfortable fitting wearing experience. The air cushion lining 12 can be connected to the air pipe 28 through the formed air groove. When the air pipe 28 transmits gas, it will cause the air cushion lining 12 to expand or contract, so as to passively contract and relax the calf muscles and foot muscles of the patient.

[0027] Working principle:

[0028] As shown Figures 1 - 3As shown, when the patient needs to wear it, the wearing end 13 provided in the middle of the air cushion lining 12 can be used for wearing at this time. During the wearing process, the below-knee wearing sock 11 and the air cushion lining 12 will adjust themselves according to the thickness of the patient's leg and fit with the patient. The patient's ankle will be placed in the middle of the rubber sleeve layer 25, and the patient's foot will be placed at the wearing cabin 22 opened in the foot wearing sock 21 and its heel will be at the contact layer 23 connected to the memory foam 24 connected in the wearing cabin 22, and pressure will be applied to it. The contact layer 23 will contact the patient's heel, and the foot wearing sock 21 will wrap the patient's foot in a fitting manner through the spandex material provided on it. When the patient's foot makes a backward movement, the air cushion 26 connected to the rubber sleeve layer 25 will be deformed under pressure, and external air will be sucked into it due to the pressure through the air valve 27 and gas transmission will be carried out through the air pipe 28. The air pipe 28 will pass through the connection groove opened in the below-knee wearing sock 11 and input air into it through the air groove opened in the air cushion lining 12, so that the whole air cushion lining 12 expands and deflates through the air valve 27 and can expand and contract repeatedly, so as to passively contract and relax the calf muscles and foot muscles of the patient's leg.

[0029] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it is not a limitation to the present invention in other forms. Any person skilled in the art may use the disclosed technical content to make changes or modifications into equivalent embodiments with equivalent changes and apply them to other fields. However, as long as it does not depart from the technical solution content of the present invention, any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiments according to the technical essence of the present invention still belong to the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
