However, the small pillow is easy to move, resulting in the patient's body position and the injured limb function not being in place. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a multifunctional pillow for upper limb fractures, so as to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art and at least provide a beneficial choice or create conditions.
[0004] The technical solution adopted to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: a multifunctional pillow for upper limb fractures, comprising: an air cushion, a accommodating cover with an accommodating space being detachably connected to the top of the air cushion, a chain for opening the accommodating space being provided on one side of the accommodating cover, and a first Velcro being provided between the air cushion and the accommodating cover; side fixing straps, the side fixing straps being provided on both sides of the air cushion, and the side fixing straps on both sides being detachably connected; an upper fixing strap being provided on the upper side of the air cushion, and the upper fixing strap being detachably connected to one of the side fixing straps.
[0005] This technical solution has at least the following beneficial effects: the multifunctional upper limb fracture support pillow is placed on the patient's upper arm, allowing the air cushion to support the patient's upper arm. The support is then secured around the patient's chest with side straps and around the patient's shoulders with upper straps. This ensures the air cushion is relatively fixed to the corresponding position of the patient's upper arm, preventing it from shifting, ensuring accurate positioning of the patient and the injured limb, and alleviating pain. Furthermore, the support sleeve can be used to accommodate memory foam, ice packs, or heat packs, providing softer support, cooling, and heating functions, respectively. This increases the utility of the multifunctional upper limb fracture support pillow and provides better treatment and care for patients.
[0006] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the housing is equipped with a thermometer with a measuring end located within the housing space. The thermometer is provided with a display for displaying the temperature at the measuring end. The thermometer can measure the temperature inside the housing, and during ice or heat compresses, the temperature can be checked, thereby preventing frostbite or burns.
[0007] As a further improvement to the above technical solution, the air cushion is equipped with a buzzer electrically connected to the thermometer.

[0023] Reference Figure 1-2A multifunctional pillow for upper limb fractures includes an air cushion 100, a accommodating sleeve 200, a side fixing strap 300 and an upper fixing strap 400. The air cushion 100 is rectangular and placed longitudinally. A raised edge 110 is provided on the right edge and the upper edge of the top of the air cushion 100. The raised edge 110 is L-shaped as a whole. When the patient's left upper arm is placed on the cushion, the raised edge 110 can well support the patient's upper arm and improve the patient's comfort. At the same time, it can also limit the position of the air cushion 100 to prevent the air cushion 100 from moving.
[0024] A first Velcro strip is attached to the bottom of the containment sleeve 200. The first Velcro strip includes a first loop surface and a first hook surface. The first loop surface is sewn and fixed to the bottom of the containment sleeve 200, while the first hook surface is glued and fixed to the top of the air cushion 100. The first loop surface and the first hook surface are positioned correspondingly, allowing the containment sleeve 200 to be removably attached to the top of the air cushion 100 via the first Velcro strip. Two adjacent side surfaces of the containment sleeve 200 correspond to the air cushion 100, while the other two adjacent side surfaces abut against the inner side of the raised edge 110. A storage space is provided within the containment sleeve 200. A chain 210 is sewn onto the side of the containment sleeve 200, covering the two sides of the containment sleeve 200 corresponding to the air cushion 100. When the chain 210 is opened, the interior of the containment sleeve 200 is widely accessible, allowing for the insertion of memory foam, cold compresses, or hot compresses for treatment and care of the patient's upper arm.
[0025] It should be noted that if the cushion is to be placed on the patient's right upper arm, the raised edge 110 is set on the left edge and upper edge of the top of the air cushion 100, that is, this embodiment includes two types for use on the left and right upper arms of the human body.
[0026] Four side fixing straps 300 are provided, two of which are positioned at upper and lower positions on the left side of the air cushion 100, and the other two are positioned at upper and lower positions on the right side of the air cushion 100. A second Velcro 310 is provided between the left side fixing strap 300 and the right side fixing strap 300. The second Velcro 310 includes a second hook surface and a second loop surface. The second hook surface is sewn to the end of the left side fixing strap 300, and the second loop surface is sewn to the end of the right side fixing strap 300. This allows the left and right side fixing straps 300 to be detachably connected via the second Velcro 310. After the air cushion 100 is correctly positioned on the patient, the side fixing straps 300 are wrapped around the patient's upper body to secure the air cushion 100. This prevents the air cushion 100 from moving and ensures that it is correctly positioned.
[0027] One end of the upper fixing strap 400 is fixedly connected to the upper side wall of the air cushion 100. A third Velcro 410 is provided on the end of the upper fixing strap 400 away from the air cushion 100. The third Velcro 410 includes a third loop surface and a third hook surface. The third hook surface is sewn to the end of the upper fixing strap 400, and the third loop surface is sewn to one of the side fixing straps 300. Specifically, after the side fixing straps 300 on both sides are connected, the third loop surface is sewn above the side fixing strap 300 in the top covering position to facilitate the connection of the upper fixing strap 400 to the side fixing strap 300. After the upper fixing strap 400 is connected to the side fixing strap 300, the position of the air cushion relative to the patient's shoulder is fixed, further preventing the air cushion from shifting.
[0028] A thermometer 500 is installed inside the containment sleeve 200. The measuring end of the thermometer 500 is fixed at the middle position of the inner wall of the containment sleeve 200 away from the air cushion 100. A display screen 510 is installed on the top surface of the raised edge 110. The display screen 510 is electrically connected to the thermometer 500. The display screen 510 can display the temperature of the thermometer 500 at the measuring end position, so as to judge the current temperature of the cold compress or hot compress, and deal with it in time when the temperature is too high or too low, to prevent frostbite or burns caused by long-term cold compress or inappropriate hot compress temperature.
[0029] A buzzer 520 is mounted on the top surface of the raised edge 110, near the display screen 510. The buzzer 520 is electrically connected to the thermometer 500. When the temperature measured by the thermometer 500 exceeds a certain value or falls below a certain value, a signal is sent to the buzzer 520, which sounds to alert people that the temperature is too high or too low and requires prompt action to prevent frostbite or burns caused by prolonged cold compresses or hot compresses at inappropriate temperatures. It should be noted that when the temperature measured by the thermometer 500 is within a set range, a signal is also sent to the buzzer 520 to stop working.
[0030] An indicator light 530 is installed on the top surface of the raised edge 110 and near the display screen 510. The indicator light 530 is electrically connected to the thermometer 500. When the temperature measured by the thermometer 500 exceeds a certain value or is lower than a certain value, a signal can be sent to the indicator light 530, and the indicator light 530 lights up or flashes to remind people that the temperature is too high or too low and needs to be dealt with in time to prevent frostbite or burns caused by long-term cold compress or hot compress at an inappropriate temperature. It should be noted that when the temperature measured by the thermometer 500 is within the set range, a signal will also be sent to the indicator light 530 to stop working. In other embodiments, only the buzzer 520 or only the indicator light 530 can be set.
[0031] The interior of the air cushion 100 is filled with gas, providing flexible support. An inflation tube is connected to one side of the air cushion 100, and the other end of the tube is connected to the inflatable bag 600, connecting the interior of the inflatable bag 600 to the interior of the air cushion 100. The volume of the inflatable bag 600 is smaller than that of the air cushion 100. A switch valve is installed on the inflation tube, which opens or closes the inflation tube, thereby opening or blocking the connection between the air cushion 100 and the inflatable bag 600.
[0032] Specifically, the switch valve component includes an elastic clip 610, which is V-shaped in its natural state. A hook 611 and a slot 612 are provided at both ends of the elastic clip 610. When the inflation tube needs to be closed, the inner side of the elastic clip 610 is clamped in the inflation tube. By pressing the two ends of the elastic clip 610 to bring them closer together and clamping the hook 611 in the slot 612, the elastic clip 610 can be placed in a closed state. At this time, the two sides of the elastic clip 610 clamp the inflation tube, thereby disconnecting the air cushion 100 from the inflatable bag 600 and maintaining the current inflation level of the air cushion 100. The bottom wall of the slot 612 passes through the elastic clip 610. After the hook 611 is clamped in the slot 612, the hook 611 partially protrudes on the other side of the slot 612, making it easy for people to press the hook 611 and remove the hook 611 from the slot 612. After the hook 611 is disengaged from the slot 612, the elastic clip 610 uses its own elastic force to restore the V shape and open, loosening the inflation tube, so that the air cushion 100 and the inflation bag 600 can be connected. The air cushion 100 can be deflated or inflated by pressing the air cushion 100 or the inflation bag 600, and then clamped by the elastic clip 610. The degree of inflation of the air cushion 100 can be adjusted to meet the different support needs of patients.
[0033] One of the inner side surfaces of the elastic clip 610 is bonded and fixed to the outer side wall of the inflation tube, so that the elastic clip 610 can be fixed on the inflation tube to prevent the elastic clip 610 from being lost.
[0034] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by ordinary technicians in the technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
