Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of prostheses, in particular to an inner diameter measuring device for a prosthesis receiving cavity. Background Art
[0002] The prosthetic socket is an interface component of the human body mechanical system, which can comfortably accommodate the residual limb and effectively transmit the relevant force to the distal part of the prosthesis. Therefore, the so-called fit of the socket refers to the mutual cooperation between the socket and the residual limb. The mutual cooperation that conforms to anatomy, biology and biomechanics in function is a "good fit".
[0003] Existing prosthetic sockets are prone to size mismatch problems. The reason for this is that the initial measurements are not accurate enough, resulting in errors during fitting. After wearing, gaps or top pressure will occur, causing damage to the residual limb. Therefore, it is necessary to design an inner diameter measuring device. Utility Model Content

However, it should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the scope of the present utility model. In addition, in the following description, the description of well-known structures and technologies is omitted to avoid unnecessarily confusing the concept of the present utility model.

The measuring mechanism 5 includes a measuring rod 501 movably connected to the sliding rail 201, and an extension rod 502 is slidably connected to the measuring rod 501. The measurement is carried out by reading the measuring rod 501 and the extension rod 502. The clamping mechanism 4 includes a clamping frame 401 movably connected to the sliding rail 201, and a prosthetic socket is clamped on the clamping frame 401.
[0024] The length of the extended parts of the measuring rod 501 and the extension rod 502 is the inner diameter of the prosthetic socket.
[0025] The moving mode of the extension rod 502 includes manual adjustment and electric adjustment.
[0026] A measuring telescopic rod 503 is provided on the measuring rod 501. The telescopic end 506 of the measuring telescopic rod 503 is connected to the inside of the extension rod 502. Scales are provided on the measuring rod 501 and the extension rod 502, and readings are taken according to the scales.
[0027] The measuring telescopic rod 503 is extended to drive the extension rod 502 to move for reading.
[0028] Stabilizing mechanisms are movably connected to both sides of the extension rod 502. The stabilizing mechanisms include stabilizing plates 504. One end of the stabilizing plate 504 is rotatably connected to the outer end of the extension rod 502, and the other end swings to make the stabilizing plate 504 fit against the inner wall of the prosthetic socket. A stabilizing telescopic rod 505 for controlling the swing of the stabilizing plate 504 is provided on the extension rod 502.
[0029] The stabilizing plate 504 presses against the inner wall of the prosthetic socket, which can ensure that the position where the extension rod 502 extends is the stable part of the prosthetic socket and avoid inaccurate measurement results.

When the stabilizing telescopic rod 505 extends, it drives the stabilizing plate 504 to rotate outward.
[0033] When the telescopic end 506 of the stabilizing telescopic rod 505 extends, it moves within the mating groove 507. The mating groove 507 is an arc-shaped groove. To cooperate with the extension of the telescopic end 506, it rotates outward, i.e., in the opposite direction of the arc; when the telescopic end 506 retracts, by the same principle, it drives the stabilizing plate 504 to rotate inward.
[0034] The clamping mechanism 4 includes a fixed clamp 402 and a mating clamp 403 movably provided on the clamping frame 401. The fixed clamp 402 and the mating clamp 403 clamp the prosthetic socket, and are respectively clamped on the outer wall and the inner wall of the prosthetic socket.

[0036] Working process of the present utility model:
[0037] For an inner diameter measuring device of a prosthetic socket of the present utility model, the prosthetic socket is installed on the telescopic support frame 3 and clamped by the fixed clamp 402 and the mating clamp 403 on the clamping frame 401. Then, the measuring telescopic rod 503 extends to drive the extension rod 502 to move and press against the inner wall of the prosthetic socket. Subsequently, the stabilizing telescopic rod 505 extends to drive the telescopic end 506 to move within the mating groove 507, driving the stabilizing plate 504 to rotate outward and press against the inner wall of the prosthetic socket. At this time, the reading of the extension rod 502 is recorded, and by adding the reading of the measuring rod 501, the inner diameter can be calculated.
[0038] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, or improvements made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
