Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of medical devices, and particularly relates to an adjustable neck supporter. Background Art

[0002] Tumor bone metastasis refers to the metastatic lesions formed when the primary cancer invades the bones through the blood circulation and grows and spreads in the bone tissue. Bone metastasis is one of the common complications of cancer. Bone metastasis may occur in multiple bone sites. When cancer cells enter the blood system from the original tumor, they can spread through the blood circulation to other parts of the body, including bones. Once cancer cells enter the bones, they will grow in the bone tissue and destroy the normal bone tissue structure. Common bone metastasis sites include the spine, pelvis, femur, ribs and skull. When tumor bone metastasis occurs, it can cause bone pain and affect the patient's activities. Poor posture or position may aggravate bone damage. In severe cases, fractures may occur. The most serious cases can cause paralysis, seriously affecting the patient's quality of life.

[0003] Currently, patients are instructed to wear a cervical collar to support their head, reducing the pressure of the head weight on the vertebrae and thus reducing the risk of pathological fractures. However, because cervical collars currently on the market are fixed in length and lack individual characteristics, they only support the neck and not the head. Their single function and limited applicability lead to poor patient compliance, necessitating urgent improvements.

[0028] See also Figure 1-3 The present embodiment provides an adjustable neck support device, which includes a neck support assembly 1, which includes an upper support 11, a lower support 12 and a height adjustment member 13. The upper support 11 and the lower support 12 are both annular, and the sides of the upper support 11 and the lower support 12 are both provided with openings. The upper support 11 and the lower support 12 are connected by the height adjustment member 13, and the openings of the upper support 11 and the lower support 12 face the same direction; the headband assembly 2, which includes a support member 21 and a head strap 22, and the head strap 22 is connected to the upper support 11 through the support member 21.

[0029] Specifically, the upper support 11, the lower support 12 and the height adjustment member 13 of the device constitute the main body of the neck support. When in use, the patient briefly pries the upper support 11 and the lower support 12 apart from the annular openings of the upper support 11 and the lower support 12, and puts the neck into it. The medical staff adjusts the height adjustment member 13 according to the length of the patient's neck, adjusts the distance between the upper support 11 and the lower support 12, and then adjusts the overall height of the neck support. Finally, the head strap 22 is fixed to the patient's head. The support member 21 is made of a relatively hard material and supports the head strap 22 and the main body of the neck support, supports the patient's head and neck, and provides certain support to the patient's vertebrae. The neck support has a simple structure. While it can be adjusted for use according to the length of the neck of different patients, it has the function of supporting the patient's head, and is more practical clinically.

[0030] In some possible embodiments, the height adjustment member 13 includes a sleeve 131 and a plug-in 132. The sleeve 131 is installed on the top of the lower support member 12, and the plug-in 132 is installed on the bottom of the upper support member 11. The plug-in 132 is inserted into the sleeve 131. A screw hole is provided on the sleeve 131, and a bolt 133 is inserted into the screw hole. The bolt 133 fixes the sleeve 131 and the plug-in 132.

[0031] Specifically, the height is adjusted by telescoping between the sleeve 131 and the plug-in 132. The plug-in 132 and the sleeve 131 form a telescopic rod. When in use, the position between the plug-in 132 and the sleeve 131 is adjusted according to the length of the patient's neck, and the position is fixed with the bolt 133 to complete the adjustment of the upper support 11 and the lower support 12. The structure is simple and easy to use.

[0032] In some possible implementations, there are two groups of height adjustment members 13 , and the two groups of height adjustment members 13 are respectively installed on the left and right sides of the bottom of the upper supporting member 11 and the top of the lower supporting member 12 .

[0033] Specifically, the two sets of height adjustment parts 13 are respectively installed on both sides of the upper support part 11 and the lower support part 12. The connection between the upper support part 11 and the lower support part 12 is more stable. At the same time, the height adjustment part 13 has a gap, so the patient can dissipate heat better when using the neck brace and will not feel bored.

[0034] In some possible implementations, the sleeve 131 is in a semi-annular shape that fits against one side of the lower supporting member 12 , and the plug-in 132 is in a semi-annular shape that fits against one side of the upper supporting member 11 .

[0035] Specifically, the shapes of the sleeve 131 and the plug-in 132 fit closely with the upper support 11 and the lower support 12. When in use, the sleeve 131 and the plug-in 132 will not affect the patient's neck. At the same time, they are more beautiful, the semi-circular cross-sectional area is larger, and the fixation of the upper support 11 and the lower support 12 is more stable.

[0036] In some possible implementations, the two ends of the head strap 22 are connected by Velcro; the support member 21 is made of plastic bone, and there are two support members 21, which are respectively installed on the left and right sides of the top of the upper supporting member 11.

[0037] Specifically, the Velcro connection is more convenient to use, easier to adjust the head strap 22, and more firmly fixes the patient's head. The two support members 21 improve the supporting function of the support member 21. The gel bone material is lighter and safer, and the patient's skin is less likely to have allergies. At the same time, it is softer than metal, and the patient has a better experience.

[0038] In some possible implementations, the support member 21 is flat, and the two support members 21 are arranged with an arc to fit against the cheeks of a person.

[0039] Specifically, the flat support member 21 fits the patient's cheek, so the patient's face will not be squeezed by the support member 21 when using it, making it more comfortable to use.

[0040] In some possible implementations, the upper supporting member 11 and the lower supporting member 12 are both made of latex. The inner rings of the upper supporting member 11 and the lower supporting member 12 are both provided with protrusions according to acupuncture points on the human neck.

[0041] Specifically, the latex material is both soft and hard, providing support for the patient's neck while enhancing the user experience. The raised points on the upper and lower support members 11, 12, corresponding to the acupuncture points on the neck, can provide a certain degree of massage, enhancing user comfort. Furthermore, the upper and lower support members 11, 12 can also be hollow structures. Hollow structures are lighter and more breathable, making them more comfortable for patients to use. Hollow structures also provide good stability and can effectively support the patient's head.

[0042] In some possible implementations, the head strap 22 is an elastic strap.

[0043] Specifically, different patients have different head sizes, and the elastic band is elastic, which can more firmly fix the patient's head when used.

[0044] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely specific implementations of the present invention, intended to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit them. The scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto.
