[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] Refer to Figures 1-4 , an embodiment provided by the present utility model: A post - ear - surgery protection device includes an arc - shaped bracket 1. Openings 12 are provided on the inner walls of the left and right sides at the front end of the arc - shaped bracket 1. Through - slots 11 are provided on the inner walls of the left and right ends of the arc - shaped bracket 1. A protective pad 2 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the front end of the arc - shaped bracket 1. Convex blocks 3 are provided on the left and right sides at the front end of the arc - shaped bracket 1. Inclined rods 4 are fixedly connected to the tops of the two convex blocks 3. Protective earcups 5 are fixedly connected to the opposite ends of the two inclined rods 4. Sponge pads 6 are fixedly connected to the opposite ends of the two protective earcups 5. A first strap 7 and a second strap 8 are respectively fixedly connected to the front ends of the two convex blocks 3. Fluffy side stickers 9 and prickly side stickers 10 are respectively fixedly connected to the outer walls of the ends of the first strap 7 and the second strap 8 away from the convex blocks 3. The rear outer wall of the fluffy side sticker 9 is arranged on the front outer wall of the prickly side sticker 10.

[0022] Furthermore, the protective pad 2 is fixedly supported by the arc-shaped bracket 1. The arc-shaped bracket 1 is placed at the back of the patient's neck. The protective pad 2 protects the skin at the back of the patient's neck, reducing the friction between the patient's skin and the device. Through the cooperation of the arc-shaped bracket 1, the bump 3, the first strap 7 and the second strap 8, the fuzzy surface sticker 9 of the first strap 7 and the hook surface sticker 10 of the second strap 8 are adhered together, so that the device can be stably fixed at the patient's neck.

[0023] A cavity 15 is formed in the inner wall of the arc-shaped bracket 1. Arc-shaped toothed plates 13 are fixedly connected to the rear ends of the two bumps 3 on both sides, and driven gears 16 are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the left and right ends of the cavity 15. The two cavities 15 and the arc-shaped toothed plates 13 are meshed. Connecting blocks 14 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the opposite ends of the two arc-shaped toothed plates 13. The outer walls of the two connecting blocks 14 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the through groove 11. The outer walls of the two arc-shaped toothed plates 13 are arranged in the inner walls of the two openings 12. The outer walls of the two arc-shaped toothed plates 13 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the cavity 15.

[0024] Furthermore, the cavity 15 limits the arc-shaped toothed plate 13, the through groove 11 limits the connecting block 14. By sliding the two connecting blocks 14 to drive the arc-shaped toothed plate 13, the arc-shaped toothed plate 13 meshes with the driven gear 16, and the arc-shaped toothed plate 13 drives the bump 3, the inclined rod 4 and the protective earcup 5 to move, achieving the effect of adjusting the size of the protective device according to the patient's needs.

[0025] A third protective layer 20 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective earcup 5. A second protective layer 19 is fixedly connected to the inner layer of the third protective layer 20. A first protective layer 18 is fixedly connected to the inner layer of the second protective layer 19. A plurality of ventilation holes 17 are formed in the inner wall of the protective earcup 5.

[0026] Furthermore, after the patient wears the protective earcup 5, the first protective layer 18 is made of soft cotton pad material, which can provide a comfortable touch for the patient, reduce the friction between the skin and the device, and absorb the moisture inside the protective earcup 5 to keep it dry. The second protective layer 19 is made of hard sponge material, which plays a role of buffering and supporting, reducing the impact of external collision or pressure on the ear. The third protective layer 20 is made of leather material, which can play a role of waterproofing and anti-fouling, avoiding the influence of external factors on the ear wound. The air circulation inside the protective earcup 5 is realized through the ventilation holes 17, reducing the heat and moisture inside the protective earcup 5 and enhancing the comfort of the patient wearing the protective device.

[0027] Working principle: First, place the arc-shaped bracket 1 at the back of the patient's neck. Slide the connecting blocks 14 on both sides to drive the arc-shaped gear plate 13. The arc-shaped gear plate 13 meshes with the driven gear 16, causing the arc-shaped gear plate 13 to drive the convex block 3, the inclined rod 4, and the protective earcup 5 to move together. Adjust the fixed position of the protective earcup 5 according to the patient's needs. Then, overlap the first strap 7 and the second strap 8 so that the fuzzy surface 9 of the first strap 7 and the prickly surface 10 of the second strap 8 can adhere to each other, enabling the protective device to be stably installed on the patient. When the patient wears the protective earcup 5, it contacts the patient's skin through the sponge pad 6, reducing the pressure of the protective earcup 5 on the patient's ear, improving the wearing comfort, and having a certain sound-absorbing performance to reduce the interference of external noise to the patient. At the same time, the first protective layer 18 is made of soft cotton padding, which can provide a comfortable touch for the patient, reduce the friction between the skin and the device, and absorb the moisture inside the protective earcup 5 to keep it dry. The second protective layer 19 is made of hard sponge material, which plays a buffering and supporting role to reduce the impact of external collision or pressure on the ear. The third protective layer 20 is made of leather material, which can play a role in waterproofing and anti-fouling, avoiding the influence of external factors on the ear wound. The air circulation inside the protective earcup 5 is achieved through the ventilation holes 17, reducing the heat and moisture inside the protective earcup 5 and enhancing the comfort of the patient wearing the protective device.

[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. 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 in the protection scope of the present invention.
