Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical auxiliary instruments, in particular to a wheelchair with a supporting function. Background Art

[0002] A wheelchair is a chair equipped with wheels to help replace walking. It is an important mobile tool for the wounded, sick, and disabled for home rehabilitation, transportation, medical treatment, and outdoor activities. A wheelchair not only meets the transportation needs of the physically disabled and those with limited mobility, but more importantly, it facilitates the movement and care of patients by their families, enabling patients to exercise their bodies and participate in social activities with the help of a wheelchair. An ordinary wheelchair generally consists of a foldable frame, left and right side plates (skirt guards), front and rear wheels, left and right knee guards and footrests, left and right armrests, a handle brake device, a seat, a backrest with a medical imaging data bag, a urine collection bag hook, and other parts.

[0003] Anterior cruciate ligament injury is one of the common sports injuries. After surgery, patients usually need a period of rehabilitation to restore joint function and mobility. In the early stage of rehabilitation, due to pain, swelling, and limited joint stability in the affected limb, patients have difficulty moving, and a wheelchair becomes an important auxiliary mobile tool.

[0004] However, during the use of the existing wheelchair for patients with anterior cruciate ligament injury, the positions of various supports on the wheelchair are fixed. For example, the devices for supporting the patient's legs and upper limbs cannot be adjusted according to the patient's needs to better support the patient. Therefore, a wheelchair with a supporting function is needed for use. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] The embodiment of the utility model provides a wheelchair with a supporting function to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0006] The embodiment of the utility model adopts the following technical solution: A wheelchair with a supporting function includes a wheelchair body,

[0007] a leg support structure; there are two leg support structures symmetrically located on the lower side of the wheelchair body, and the leg support structure can be moved out of the wheelchair body to fix and support the legs;

[0008] an upper limb support structure; there are two upper limb support structures, and the two upper limb support structures are symmetrically arranged at the armrests of the wheelchair body, and the upper limb support structure is used to fix and support the upper limbs;

[0009] an infusion stand, which is located on the wheelchair body and at the rear position of the wheelchair body.

[0010] The present utility model can realize the functions of supporting and fixing the upper limbs and lower limbs of patients in the wheelchair state.

[0011] Further, each of the leg support structures includes a support frame, a sliding plate, and a support cushion. The support frame is horizontally arranged on the wheelchair body. The sliding plate is located on the support frame. A chute is provided on the sliding plate. The support cushion is horizontally slidably connected to the support frame. A nut is provided on the chute, and a contact screw threadedly connected to the nut is provided on the nut.

[0012] When in use, it can be pulled out. When not in use, it can be folded up. When pulled out, it has a supporting effect and can fix and support the patient's legs, reducing the patient's pain.

[0013] Further, each of the upper limb support structures includes a support plate, a lifting plate, and two lifting rods. The support plate is horizontally arranged at the armrest of the wheelchair body. Two symmetrically arranged sleeves are provided at the bottom of the support plate. The two lifting rods are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the lifting plate. The lifting rods are slidably connected in the sleeves. A soft pad is provided at the top of the lifting plate. A number of equally spaced insertion holes are provided on the lifting rods, and insertion rods for insertion and cooperation with the insertion holes are provided on the sleeves.

[0014] The upper limbs of the patient can be placed on the soft pad at the best position to fix and support the immobile upper limbs of the patient.

[0015] Further, the infusion stand includes a support pipe rack, a movable pipe, and an infusion round rack. The support pipe rack is located on the wheelchair body. The movable pipe is located in the support pipe rack and is slidably matched with the support pipe rack. A locking bolt for locking the movable pipe is provided on the support pipe rack. The infusion round rack is located on the movable pipe.

[0016] Further, a mutually foldable seat cushion is provided on the wheelchair body.

[0017] The above at least one technical solution adopted in the embodiment of the present utility model can achieve the following beneficial effects:

[0018] First, during the use of the present utility model, the support cushion moves outwards on the support frame, which can fix and support the patient's legs. After moving the support cushion out of the support frame, by rotating the contact screw on the nut, the position of the support cushion can be locked and fixed to prevent the position of the support cushion from moving and affecting the support for the patient's legs. When in use, it can be pulled out. When not in use, it can be folded up. When pulled out, it has a supporting effect and can fix and support the patient's legs, reducing the patient's pain.

[0019] Second, in the present utility model, the lifting plate can move up and down through two lifting rods in two sleeves, thereby adjusting the height position of the lifting plate. After determining the position height of the lifting plate, the insertion rod is inserted into the corresponding insertion hole on the lifting rod, thereby locking the position height of the lifting plate. The soft pad can support and protect the upper limb of the patient. The position height of the lifting plate can be adjusted according to the position of the upper limb of the patient, so that the upper limb of the patient is placed on the soft pad at the best position, and the upper limb of the immobile patient is fixed and supported.
