Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ankle orthoses, and particularly relates to an ankle orthosis. Background Technique

[0002] Ankle orthoses are an important part of rehabilitation aids. They are widely used in rehabilitation medicine to control foot drop or mild varus and valgus caused by the central nervous system or the common peroneal nerve. The application and popularization of ankle orthoses in the medical field help improve the living standards of patients. Patent No. CN201520657507.4 discloses an ankle orthosis with a reasonable structure, easier donning and doffing, and better comfort than previous orthoses. However, due to the strong tightness after wearing the ankle orthosis, its heat dissipation performance is poor, resulting in poor comfort for patients wearing the ankle orthosis. For this reason, we propose an ankle orthosis. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide an ankle orthosis. Through the design of a box body, a partition board, a bracket and a fan, a structural component convenient for blowing air is set on the back surface of the ankle orthosis, so that the legs of the patient wearing the ankle orthosis can be dissipated heat, which is convenient to improve the comfort of the patient when wearing the ankle orthosis, and can effectively solve the problems in the background technique.

[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:

[0005] An ankle orthosis includes a device body. A box body for support is assembled on the back surface of the device body. A partition board for separating space is integrally formed inside the box body. A bracket for auxiliary support is assembled inside the box body. A fan for heat dissipation is assembled on the outer surface of the bracket, and there are multiple groups of fans.

[0006] A frame plate for auxiliary support is assembled at the air inlet end of the periphery of the box body through screws. A filter screen layer and a gauze layer for preventing impurities are assembled inside the frame plate.

[0007] Furthermore, a straight hole for ventilation is opened on the surface of the box body close to the device body, and there are multiple groups of straight holes. The straight holes enable the fans inside the box body to blow air and dissipate heat for the device body smoothly.

[0008] Furthermore, concave holes communicating with the straight holes are opened on the inner peripheral surface of the device body, and there are multiple groups of concave holes. A cotton mesh layer for protection is assembled inside the concave holes. The concave holes enable the wind force of the fans to enter the device body smoothly, and at the same time, the cotton mesh layer is convenient for protecting the concave holes.

[0009] Furthermore, a cover plate for maintenance is snap - connected to the outer side wall surface of the box body, and a battery pack for providing power is assembled inside the box body; the battery pack facilitates providing power support for the operation of the fan, and the cover plate is convenient for disassembly and assembly, facilitating the replacement of the battery pack.

[0010] Furthermore, a controller for control is assembled on the outer side wall surface of the cover plate; the controller facilitates controlling the operation of the fan.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. Through the design of the box body, partition board, bracket and fan in the technical solution of this application, a structural component for facilitating air blowing is established on the back surface of the ankle orthosis, so that the legs of the patient wearing the ankle orthosis can be cooled, which is convenient for improving the comfort of the patient when wearing the ankle orthosis.

[0013] 2. Through the design of the frame plate, screen layer and filter layer in the technical solution of this application, it is convenient to intercept the air entering the inside of the box body, so that garbage and sundries will not enter it, so that the fan inside the box body can operate stably and smoothly, which is convenient for ventilating and cooling the patient wearing the ankle orthosis.

[0018] In order to make the technical means, creative features, achieved purposes and effects of the utility model easy to understand, the utility model will be further elaborated below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0019] Such as Figures 1-3As shown in the figure, an ankle orthosis includes a device body 1. A box body 14 for support is assembled on the back surface of the device body 1. A partition 2 for separating space is integrally formed inside the box body 14. A bracket 3 for auxiliary support is assembled inside the box body 14. A fan 4 for heat dissipation is assembled on the outer wall surface of the bracket 3, and there are multiple groups of the fans 4. The air inlet end on the outer periphery of the box body 14 is assembled with a frame plate 6 for auxiliary support by screws. A filter screen layer 7 and a gauze layer 8 for preventing impurities are assembled inside the frame plate 6. Multiple straight holes 5 for ventilation are opened on the side of the box body 14 close to the device body 1. The straight holes 5 enable the fans 4 inside the box body 14 to smoothly blow air for heat dissipation in the device body 1. Multiple concave holes 12 communicating with the straight holes 5 are opened on the inner peripheral surface of the device body 1. A cotton net layer 13 for protection is assembled inside the concave holes 12. The concave holes 12 enable the wind force of the fans 4 to smoothly enter the device body 1. At the same time, the cotton net layer 13 is convenient for protecting the concave holes 12. A cover plate 11 for maintenance is snap-connected to the outer wall surface of the box body 14. A battery pack 9 for providing power is assembled inside the box body 14. The battery pack 9 conveniently provides power support for the operation of the fans 4, and the cover plate 11 is convenient for disassembly and assembly, facilitating the replacement of the battery pack 9. A controller 10 for control is assembled on the outer wall surface of the cover plate 11. The controller 10 conveniently controls the operation of the fans 4.

[0020] It should be noted that the present utility model is an ankle orthosis. During operation, first, the corresponding structural components are installed in appropriate positions, and the corresponding auxiliary structural components and electronic components are added. When a patient who needs to wear the ankle orthosis wears the ankle orthosis, if the foot is relatively hot, the controller 10 on the outer side of the box body 14 can be operated to enable multiple groups of fans 4 on the bracket 3 inside the box body 14 to operate. The operation of the fans 4 conveniently sucks external air from the air inlet end of the box body 14, so that the air enters the box body 14 after being double-filtered by the filter screen layer 7 and the gauze layer 8 inside the frame plate 6 at the air inlet end. Subsequently, it conveniently passes through the multiple straight holes 5 at the air outlet end of the box body 14 and then through the multiple concave holes 12 on the inner peripheral surface of the device body 1, and then enters the inside of the device body 1, conveniently ventilating and dissipating heat from the patient's foot, thereby improving the comfort of the patient when using the ankle orthosis, being convenient to operate, and at the same time, the frame plate 6 can be disassembled and assembled, facilitating the cleaning or replacement of the filter screen layer 7 and the gauze layer 8 inside the frame plate 6, enabling the two to continuously and stably filter and intercept the air entering the device body 1, and conveniently and smoothly ventilating and dissipating heat from the patient's foot.

[0021] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present utility model is not limited by the above-mentioned embodiments, and what is described in the above-mentioned embodiments and the specification only illustrates the principles of the present utility model.
