[0030] Example
[0031] Please refer to Figures 1-6 This embodiment provides a shoulder joint Y-position photography assist device, comprising a hanging rail 1 and a slider 2 slidably mounted on the hanging rail 1. The slider 2 is vertically mounted with a telescopic rod, and two rotatable mounting rods 3 are mounted at the bottom of the telescopic rod, facing each other. The tops of the rotatable mounting rods 3 are rotatably mounted at the bottom of the telescopic rod, and the bottoms of the rotatable mounting rods 3 are mounted with a limiting clamp 4. One limiting clamp 4 has male buckles 5 at both ends secured by a fabric strap, while the other has female buckles 6 at both ends secured by a fabric strap. The two limiting clamps 4 can be connected together by interlocking the male buckles 5 and female buckles 6.
[0032] During actual use, the hanging rail 1 can be fixed at the top of the wall, and the position of the limiting splint 4 can be adjusted by sliding the slider 2 along the hanging rail 1. The limiting splint 4 slides along the hanging rail 1, slides to the designated position when needed, and moves to the corner of the wall when not in use (without affecting normal examination). After the patient's upper body position is adjusted, the two limiting splints 4 are slid to the appropriate position, and the height of the two limiting splints 4 is adjusted by extending and shortening the telescopic rod according to the patient's height. The limiting splint 4 can be set to a three-section broken line shape, one limiting splint 4 is attached to the patient's chest position, and the other limiting splint 4 is attached to the patient's back position, and then the male buckle 5 and the female buckle 6 are mutually fastened to connect the two limiting splints 4 together. In this way, the patient's upper body is auxiliary fixed by the two limiting splints 4, preventing the patient from moving after the position is adjusted to affect the image quality, thereby improving the photography efficiency.
[0033] In order to better perform one-time accurate positioning, a turntable 18 can be set under the limiting splint 4. The patient can stand on the turntable 18. The turntable 18 can mark the rotation angle. During the positioning process, medical staff can directly control the turntable 18 to move the angle.
[0034] like Figures 1-6 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the telescopic rod includes a fixed rod 7 and a sliding sleeve 8. The fixed rod 7 is vertically fixed to the bottom of the slider 2, and the bottom of the fixed rod 7 is slidably mounted within the sliding sleeve 8. The rotatable mounting rod 3 is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the sliding sleeve 8. The outer wall of the sliding sleeve 8 is provided with locking holes 12 evenly spaced along the vertical direction. The fixed rod 7 is provided with a receiving slot 9, and the receiving slot 9 contains a spring 10 and a locking pin 11. One end of the spring 10 is connected to the fixed rod 7, and the other end of the spring 10 is connected to the locking pin 11. One end of the locking pin 11 slides through one of the locking holes 12.
[0035] The present invention provides a fixed rod 7 and a sliding sleeve 8, so that when adjusting the height of the limit clamp 4, the sliding sleeve 8 can be slid up and down along the fixed rod 7 for adjustment, which is convenient to operate. When adjusting, the operator can manually press the locking pin 11 into the receiving groove 9, and then freely slide the sliding sleeve 8 to adjust the position. After the position of the sliding sleeve 8 is adjusted, the elastic force of the spring 10 can push the locking pin 11 to slide through a locking hole 12 at the corresponding position to lock it. In this way, the fixed rod 7 and the sliding sleeve 8 can be relatively fixed, so that the telescopic rod can be kept at a constant length.
[0036] like Figures 1-6 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, two rotating shafts 13 are rotatably mounted at the bottom of the telescopic rod, and the tops of the two rotating mounting rods 3 are fixed to the rotating shafts 13. A ratchet 14 is fixed to the rotating shaft 13, and a fixed shaft 16 is fixed to the telescopic rod. A pawl 15 is rotatably mounted on the fixed shaft 16, and the pawl 15 engages with the ratchet 14. A torsion spring 17 is sleeved around the fixed shaft 16, one end of which is connected to the fixed shaft 16, and the other end of which is connected to the pawl 15.
[0037] The present invention utilizes a ratchet 14 and a pawl 15. As the two limiting splints 4 are gradually moved closer to the patient's body, the two rotating mounting rods 3 can rotate toward the patient and move closer to each other. The pawl 15 prevents the ratchet 14 from rotating in the opposite direction, allowing the limiting splints 4 on both sides to be firmly clamped to the patient's upper body and secured. After the imaging is completed, the medical staff can manually disengage the pawl 15 from the ratchet 14. At this point, the two rotating mounting rods 3 can be rotated outward to disengage the two limiting splints 4 from the patient's body, making operation convenient. The provision of a torsion spring 17 allows the torsion spring 17 to apply torque to the pawl 15, ensuring stable engagement of the pawl 15 with the ratchet 14.
[0038] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present application is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and that the present application can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic features of the present application.
[0039] Therefore, no matter from which point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of this application is limited by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes that fall within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims are included in this application. Any figure mark in the claims should not be regarded as limiting the claim involved. For those skilled in the art, various changes and variations of the present invention are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
