DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[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. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] An embodiment of the present utility model provides an adjustable elbow fixing brace, as Figures 1 - 5 shown in an adjustable elbow fixing brace, which includes a support plate 1 and a connecting frame 3; one end of the support plate 1 is provided with a connecting plate 5, and a length adjusting structure 6 is arranged inside the connecting plate 5. An angle adjusting structure 2 is arranged at the top end of the support plate 1, and the other end of the support plate 1 is provided with a connecting frame 3; one end of the connecting frame 3 is provided with a grip 4, and magic tapes 7 are arranged at the bottom ends of the support plate 1 and the connecting plate 5.

[0022] In a further preferred embodiment of the present utility model, as Figures 1 - 5 shown: The length adjusting structure 6 includes a mounting plate 601, an adjusting groove 602, a rotating cap 603 and a fixing column 604. The adjusting groove 602 is opened on one side inside the connecting plate 5, and the mounting plate 601 is inserted inside the adjusting groove 602. One side of the top end of the mounting plate 601 is provided with a fixing column 604, an outer thread is arranged on the outer side of the fixing column 604, an inner thread is arranged on the inner side of the rotating cap 603, and a threaded connection is formed between the rotating cap 603 and the fixing column 604.

[0023] Specifically, in this embodiment: When fixing the elbow joint, place the support plate 1 at the elbow joint position of the arm, and when placing it, the position of the mounting plate 601 can be adjusted according to the length of the arm so that it can be suitable for arms of different lengths. When adjusting, adjust the position of the mounting plate 601 according to the length of the arm. When adjusting, hold the mounting plate 601 and pull it upward to make one end of the mounting plate 601 slide inside the adjusting groove 602. When the mounting plate 601 moves to a suitable length for the patient's arm, rotate the rotating cap 603. As the rotating cap 603 and the fixing column 604 rotate, the rotating cap 603 will move downward, so as to abut against the top end of the connecting plate 5. As the rotating cap 603 rotates tighter and tighter, the position of the mounting plate 601 is fixed, and the length adjustment work of the mounting plate 601 is completed.

[0024] In a further preferred embodiment of the present utility model, as Figures 1 - 5As shown: The angle adjustment structure 2 includes teeth 201; a rotating disk 202, a rotating rod 203, a fixing plate 204 and a pressing plate 205. The rotating disk 202 is movably connected to the top of the support disk 1. Teeth 201 are provided on the outer side of the rotating disk 202. One end of the rotating disk 202 is fixed to one end of the connecting frame 3. The fixing plate 204 is arranged on one side of the rotating disk 202 at the top of the support disk 1. A rotating rod 203 is arranged inside the fixing plate 204. One end of the rotating rod 203 is provided with a pressing plate 205. The rotating rod 203 is inserted into the inside of the fixing plate 204. A threaded connection is formed between the rotating rod 203 and the fixing plate 204. A number of pointed teeth are provided on one side of the pressing plate 205. The pressing plate 205 meshes with the teeth 201. A number of teeth 201 are provided. The number of teeth 201 is annularly distributed on the outer side of the rotating disk 202.

[0025] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the length adjustment of the mounting plate 601 is completed, the support disk 1 is installed at the elbow joint of the arm through the magic tape 7. When it is necessary to adjust the angle at which the elbow joint is placed, the staff assists the patient's arm to move upward. Since the connecting frame 3 is fixed to the patient's arm, when the patient's arm moves, it will drive the rotating disk 202 to rotate on the top of the support disk 1 through the connecting frame 3. When the rotating disk 202 rotates to a comfortable position of the patient's elbow joint, stop moving and rotate the rotating rod 203. With the cooperation between the rotating rod 203 and the fixing plate 204, the pressing plate 205 can be pushed to move to one side, so that the pointed teeth on one side thereof mesh with the teeth 201, thereby clamping the rotating disk 202 and making it no longer move, thus completing the angle adjustment. When it is necessary to adjust the angle again, loosen the pressing plate 205 and repeat the above steps. Finally, complete the angle adjustment work.

[0026] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
