Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical equipment, and particularly relates to a device for correcting inward-turning thumbs of children. Background Art

[0002] Cerebral palsy in children is a non-progressive neurological disease caused by brain damage. It will cause obvious high muscle tension, which will cause children or young children to have symptoms such as thumb inward and scissor feet. The main symptom of thumb inward is thumb adduction, thumb clenched in the palm, and other fingers pressed on the thumb.

[0003] At present, the main rehabilitation treatment methods for children's inward-bending thumbs include: doctors help children hold grip bars or elastic balls to suppress the inward-bending of their thumbs. However, this method requires doctors to pay attention to children at all times. Without the help of doctors, children are likely to drop the grip bars or elastic balls in their hands, resulting in interruption of rehabilitation treatment. In addition, the prior art mostly uses correction belts to correct inward-bending thumbs. However, they only force the inward-bending thumbs to be straightened when used, without exercising the thumbs and surrounding muscles, which will affect the blood circulation of the thumbs and surrounding nerves. Utility Model Content

[0004] Based on this, the utility model provides a child's thumb inward-buckling correction device, which is used to correct the technical problem of children's thumb inward-buckling.

[0005] The technical solution of the utility model to solve the above technical problems is as follows:

[0006] A device for correcting an inward-turned thumb of a child comprises an elastic flashing ball, a first strap, a suction cup and an arc-shaped spring plate. The elastic flashing ball flashes when subjected to force. The first strap is detachably connected to the elastic flashing ball. The suction cup is fixed to the elastic flashing ball and is used to be adsorbed on the palm of a child. The arc-shaped spring plate is arranged on the elastic flashing ball. A mutual pushing piece is arranged on the arc-shaped spring plate. After the arc-shaped spring plate is bent, the mutual pushing piece is pushed to contact the elastic flashing ball. A second strap is also arranged on the arc-shaped spring plate, and the second strap is bound to the child's thumb.

[0007] Preferably, the elastic flashing ball comprises an elastic sphere and a flashing light, and the flashing light is arranged in the elastic sphere.

[0008] Preferably, the mutual top piece includes a shell, a top column and a spring, the shell is fixedly arranged with the elastic sphere, the top column is sleeved in the shell, and one end extends into the elastic sphere, the spring is sleeved on the top column, and one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the top column, and the other end is fixedly connected to the shell.

[0009] Preferably, the elastic flashing ball further includes a counter, one end of the counter is provided with a brush head, the brush head is arranged inside the elastic ball, and the brush head is arranged near one end of the top post.

[0010] Preferably, a cotton sleeve is further arranged on the arc-shaped elastic plate, and the cotton sleeve is sleeved on the arc-shaped elastic plate.

[0011] Preferably, the end of the first strap is provided with a first magic tape.

[0012] Preferably, the end of the second strap is provided with a second magic tape.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has at least the following advantages:

[0014] (1) The device has a simple structure and is easy to use. It fixes the child's palm and fingers less, so the child has less foreign body sensation in the palm. The child can use the device multiple times, and the adaptability is relatively high.

[0015] (2) By arranging the elastic flashing ball and the arc-shaped elastic plate, the elastic flashing ball is excited by bending the arc-shaped elastic plate, which can attract the child's attention and divert the attention. The child can use the thumb to bend the arc-shaped elastic plate multiple times, increasing the active movement ability of the adducted thumb and correcting the child's thumb adduction.

[0016] (3) The situation of forcibly fixing the fingers is avoided. Through the elastic bending and elastic reset of the arc-shaped elastic plate, the child's thumb adduction can be effectively avoided. Even if the elastic flashing ball has no attraction to the child, the arc-shaped elastic plate can bend and rebound. When the child's thumb wants to adduct, it will receive the rebounding effect of the arc-shaped elastic plate. Through the small-amplitude movement of the thumb under the elastic force, the blood circulation of the thumb and its surrounding nerves and muscles can be effectively promoted, and muscle nerve atrophy can be avoided.

Specific embodiments

[0024] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other. The following will further describe the technical solutions of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. The present invention is not limited to the following specific embodiments.

[0025] It should be understood that the same or similar reference numerals in the drawings of the embodiments correspond to the same or similar components. In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that if there are terms such as "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", etc. indicating the orientation or positional relationship, they are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the terms describing the positional relationship in the drawings are only for illustrative purposes and cannot be understood as a limitation of this patent. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 , a child thumb adduction correction device, comprising an elastic flashing ball 10, a first strap 20, a suction cup 30 and an arc-shaped elastic plate 40. The elastic flashing ball 10 flashes when stressed. The first strap 20 is detachably connected to the elastic flashing ball 10. The suction cup 30 is fixedly arranged with the elastic flashing ball 10. The suction cup 30 is used to adsorb on the palm of a child. The arc-shaped elastic plate 40 is arranged on the elastic flashing ball 10. A mutual top member 410 is arranged on the arc-shaped elastic plate 40. After the arc-shaped elastic plate 40 is bent, it pushes the mutual top member 410 to contact the elastic flashing ball 10. A second strap 420 is also arranged on the arc-shaped elastic plate 40. The second strap 420 is mutually bound with the thumb of the child.

[0027] In the solution provided by the present invention, the child referred to in the child thumb adduction is a child with cerebral palsy. The age of the child is between 3 and 8 years old. For children in this age group, the child's palm is larger than that of infants, and the thumb adduction has not been fully formed. For children in this age group, it is easier to correct the thumb adduction, and it is more convenient to correct the child's thumb adduction with the correction device.

[0028] In the solution provided by the present utility model, after the elastic flashing ball 10 is squeezed, the elastic flashing ball 10 emits light, attracting the attention of children and realizing the re-squeezing of the elastic flashing ball 10.

[0029] The specific usage method is as follows:

[0030] Place the elastic flashing ball 10 in the palm of the child's hand. The suction cup 30 is buckled on the child's palm and adsorbed in the palm of the child's hand. The first strap 20 bypasses the palm of the child's hand and is tied to the back of the child's hand. The child's inturned thumb is fitted with the arc-shaped elastic plate 40, and the second strap 420 is used to tie the child's thumb. The wearing is completed. Due to the phenomenon of thumb inturn in children, the thumb will naturally squeeze towards the palm of the hand, driving the arc-shaped elastic plate 40 to bend. After the arc-shaped elastic plate 40 bends, it will contact the mutual pushing member 410. After the arc-shaped elastic plate 40 continues to be bent by force, it pushes the mutual pushing member 410 to move, so that the mutual pushing member 410 contacts the elastic flashing ball 10. At this time, the elastic flashing ball 10 flashes after being stressed, attracting the attention of children and diverting their attention. Since the arc-shaped elastic plate 40 has elasticity after bending, the arc-shaped elastic plate 40 restores elastically and pushes the thumb to move back to the initial position (that is, the thumb is in a vertical state) again. After waiting for a preset time, the elastic flashing ball 10 stops flashing. In order to make the elastic flashing ball 10 flash continuously, the child's thumb will pinch the elastic flashing ball 10. Since the elastic flashing ball 10 has elasticity, the child will be happy to pinch the elastic flashing ball 10. However, during the process of pinching the ball with the other four fingers, the elastic flashing ball 10 cannot be quickly made to flash. Only when the thumb bends and drives the arc-shaped elastic plate 40 to be bent by force, by pushing the mutual pushing member 410 to squeeze the elastic flashing ball 10, the elastic flashing ball 10 responds quickly and flashes. According to the play characteristics of children, the thumb will be bent multiple times, causing the arc-shaped elastic plate 40 to be bent by force, and the elastic flashing ball 10 will flash.

[0031] The achieved effects are as follows:

[0032] (1) The device has a simple structure and is easy to use. It fixes the child's palm and fingers less, and the child's palm has less foreign body sensation. The child can use the device multiple times, and the adaptability is relatively high.

[0033] (2) By setting the elastic flashing ball 10 and the arc-shaped elastic plate 40, the elastic flashing ball 10 is excited by the bending of the arc-shaped elastic plate 40, attracting the attention of children and diverting their attention. The child can use the thumb to bend the arc-shaped elastic plate 40 multiple times, increasing the active movement ability of the inturned thumb and correcting the child's thumb inturn.

[0034] (3) The situation of forcibly fixing the fingers is avoided. Through the elastic bending and elastic reset of the arc-shaped elastic plate 40, the thumb-inward clasping of children can be effectively avoided. Even if the elastic flashing ball 10 has no attraction to children, the arc-shaped elastic plate 40 can bend and rebound. When a child's thumb wants to be clasped inward, it will receive the rebounding effect of the arc-shaped elastic plate 40. Through the small-scale movement of the thumb under the elastic force, the blood circulation of the thumb and its surrounding nerves and muscles can be effectively promoted, and muscle nerve atrophy can be avoided.

[0035] In a possible embodiment, refer to Figure 5 , the elastic flashing ball 10 includes an elastic sphere 110 and a flashing lamp 120, and the flashing lamp 120 is arranged inside the elastic sphere 110. The elastic sphere 110 is in a soft shape and has elasticity. After the flashing lamp 120 is pressed, it can flash, which is a prior art. When the flashing lamp 120 runs out of power, it can be replaced, or other components, such as a sounding ball, can be replaced to attract children's attention.

[0036] In a possible embodiment, refer to Figure 6 , the mutual pressing member 410 includes a housing 411, a top column 412 and a spring 413. The housing 411 is fixedly arranged with the elastic sphere 110. The top column 412 is sleeved inside the housing 411, and one end extends into the elastic sphere 110. The spring 413 is sleeved on the top column 412, and one end of the spring 413 is fixedly connected to the top column 412, and the other end is fixedly connected to the housing 411. When the top column 412 is pushed, the top column 412 enters the elastic sphere 110, the spring 413 is in a stretched state, and the top column 412 contacts the surface of the flashing ball, and the flashing ball is pressed and emits light. When the top column 412 is not stressed, the spring 413 resets and drives the top column 412 to move to the initial position.

[0037] In a possible embodiment, the elastic flashing ball 10 further includes a counter 130. One end of the counter 130 is provided with a brush head 131. The brush head 131 is arranged inside the elastic sphere 110 and is disposed at one end close to the top post 412. When the top post 412 moves into the elastic sphere 110, it first touches the brush head 131. After the brush head 131 is touched, it swings once and emits an electrical signal, and the counter 130 records a count. Since the child's finger needs to swing to drive the arc-shaped elastic plate 40 to bend and push the top post 412 to move, and the top post 412 contacts the brush head 131, the doctor can judge the exercise condition of the child's finger based on the data recorded by the counter 130. When the data recorded by the counter 130 in one day is greater than a certain value, for example, the value is greater than 200 or 300, it indicates that the child has a good exercise effect on the thumb. When the data recorded by the counter 130 in one day is less than a certain value, for example, the value is less than 50, it indicates that the child has a poor exercise effect on the thumb. Then the doctor should pay more attention to the thumb exercise condition of the child and strengthen the correction of thumb adduction.

[0038] In a possible embodiment, a cotton sleeve 430 is further arranged on the arc-shaped elastic plate 40. The cotton sleeve 430 is sleeved on the arc-shaped elastic plate 40. By sleeving the cotton sleeve 430, although the arc-shaped elastic plate 40 has elasticity, it is relatively hard, which can prevent the arc-shaped elastic plate 40 from bruising the child's finger or palm. At the same time, it can also prevent the child from biting the arc-shaped elastic plate 40.

[0039] In a possible embodiment, the end of the first strap 20 is provided with a first magic tape 210. The first strap 20 has two sections. It bypasses the child's palm and reaches the back of the hand, and the first strap 20 is fixed on the back of the child's hand through the first magic tape 210, which is convenient to use and simple to disassemble.

[0040] In a possible embodiment, the end of the second strap 420 is provided with a second magic tape 421. A buckle is arranged on the second strap 420, and the second strap 420 bypasses the buckle to fix the thumb inside the second strap 420.

[0041] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, rather than limitations on the implementation manners of the present invention. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all the implementation manners here. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
