[0029] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the layout of the intelligent function module according to an embodiment of the present invention. Specific embodiments

[0030] To make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] The present invention provides an adjustable visible window abdominal belt, and its structural design aims to solve a number of problems existing in the use of existing abdominal belts. Such as Figure 1 As shown, the abdominal belt mainly consists of three main parts: an abdominal belt body 100, a movable transparent window 200, and a pressure adjustment system 300. These three parts are connected to each other through a specific design to form an integrated functional whole.

[0032] The abdominal belt body 100 serves as the basic structure of the entire device, providing a platform for installing and fixing the other two main parts. The movable transparent window 200 is slidably connected to the abdominal belt body 100 through a window moving mechanism. This sliding system is embedded in the middle layer of the abdominal belt body 100, enabling the transparent window to move on the surface of the abdominal belt. Snap structures are provided at the four corners of the transparent window, matching the corresponding structures on the abdominal belt body 100, ensuring the window is firmly attached while also facilitating disassembly and cleaning.

[0033] Each component of the pressure adjustment system 300 is distributed at different positions on the abdominal belt body 100. The micro airbag is embedded in the middle layer of the abdominal belt body 100. The manual air pump is located on the side of the abdominal belt body 100 and is connected to the micro airbag through a flexible pipe. The pressure sensor is installed inside the micro airbag and is connected to the control circuit board through a flexible circuit. The display screen is installed on the outer surface of the abdominal belt body 100 for easy data reading. The quick release valve is provided on the side of the abdominal belt body 100 and is directly connected to the micro airbag for rapid decompression in case of emergency.

[0034] These three main parts are functionally interrelated. The position of the movable transparent window 200 affects the operation of the pressure adjustment system 300 because the movement of the window may change the pressure distribution of the abdominal belt on different parts of the body. Therefore, the pressure adjustment system 300 needs to adjust the inflation state of the airbag according to the position of the window to maintain uniform pressure. At the same time, the elastic structure of the abdominal belt body 100 also affects the pressure distribution and window movement, and the three form a system that interacts with and works together.

[0035] Such as Figure 2 As shown, the abdominal belt body 100 adopts a three-layer structure design, and each layer has specific functions and characteristics:

[0036] 1. Inner layer 101: Made of medical-grade silicone material with a thickness of 0.5 mm, it directly contacts the skin to ensure biocompatibility. A trace amount of silver ions with a concentration of 100 ppm is added to the inner layer surface to provide antibacterial properties.
