Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of head support and protection equipment for prone position surgery and neck surgery, in particular to a dual-purpose body position pad for prone position and rear-leaning position. Background Art

[0002] Currently, during prone surgery (such as spinal surgery), the head lies facedown. Prolonged pressure on the facial skin can lead to poor blood circulation and pressure sores. Furthermore, facial organs such as the eyes, nose, and lips are susceptible to pressure and injury. Furthermore, the surgeon may experience head movement during spinal surgery. Therefore, head protection is necessary. During neck surgery (such as thyroid surgery), the head needs to be bent backward to fully expose the neck. Since the neck is suspended and unfixed, a neck pad is required to ensure neck stability. This allows the surgeon to carefully isolate and protect important structures such as the recurrent and superior laryngeal nerves and cervical blood vessels during thyroid surgery to prevent nerve and blood vessel damage. Furthermore, head stability is essential because side-to-side movement of the head can cause neck movement. Literature has not yet documented a head and neck support and protection structure suitable for both prone neck surgery and head-back surgery. Utility Model Content

The closed ring frame 1 formed by two C-shaped metal hoses 1-2, a hard long axis 1-3, a first sleeve 1-4, a second sleeve 1-5, and an adjusting screw 1-6 fixes the silicone pad 2, which is convenient for supporting and fixing the head during prone surgery. According to the face sizes of different people, the silicone pad 2 supports and protects the face to prevent the head from shaking left and right due to insufficient fit of the positioning pad; at the same time, it is convenient for solving the problem of the neck being suspended and not fixed when the head bends backward during neck surgery, so that the neck can be isolated from hard objects and protected, and the head will not shake left and right. It has good safety, simple structure and good practicality.

[0031] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 、 2, 4, 5, 6, the silicone pad 2 includes a first silicone pad 2-1, a second silicone pad 2-2, a neck rubber pad 2-3, a first corner rubber pad connecting block 2-4, a second corner rubber pad connecting block 2-5, a third corner rubber pad connecting block 2-6, a fourth corner rubber pad connecting block 2-7, a first head rubber pad 2-8, and a second head rubber pad 2-9. The first silicone pad 2-1 is fixed on the first arc-shaped bend pipe 1-13 through the first positioning hole sleeve set inside it, the second silicone pad 2-2 is fixed on the second arc-shaped bend pipe 1-23 through the second positioning hole sleeve set inside it, the neck rubber pad 2-3 is fixed on the hard long axis 1-3 through the third positioning hole sleeve set inside it, the first corner rubber pad connecting block 2-4 is sleeved on one end of the hard long axis 1-3 through the fourth positioning hole sleeve set inside it, and the second corner rubber pad connecting block 2-5 is sleeved on the fifth positioning hole set inside it. At the other end of the rigid long axis 1-3, the first head rubber pad 2-8 is fixed on the first sleeve 1-4 through the sixth positioning hole sleeve provided therein, the second head rubber pad 2-9 is fixed on the second sleeve 1-5 through the seventh positioning hole sleeve provided therein, the third corner rubber pad connecting block 2-6 is fixed on the second connecting short tube 1-12 through the eighth positioning hole sleeve provided therein, and the fourth corner rubber pad connecting block 2-7 is fixed on the fourth connecting short tube 1-22 through the ninth positioning hole sleeve provided therein. When in the prone position, the forehead is padded on top of the first head rubber pad 2-8 and the second head rubber pad 2-9, the chin is padded on the neck rubber pad 2-3, and the face is padded on top of the first silicone pad 2-1 and the second silicone pad 2-2. When the head is in a backward position, the neck rubber pad 2-3 is placed horizontally and is placed under the neck to prevent the neck from hanging in the air and to prevent the head from shaking left and right.

[0032] In this embodiment, see Figure 3 、 4 The first corner rubber pad connecting block 2-4, the second corner rubber pad connecting block 2-5, the third corner rubber pad connecting block 2-6 and the fourth corner rubber pad connecting block 2-7 are all in the shape of a prism. The first corner rubber pad connecting block 2-4 is connected to the corresponding end faces of the first silicone pad 2-1 and the neck rubber pad 2-3 through its corresponding two edge sides, the second corner rubber pad connecting block 2-5 is connected to the corresponding end faces of the second silicone pad 2-2 and the neck rubber pad 2-3 through its corresponding two edge sides, the third corner rubber pad connecting block 2-6 is connected to the corresponding end faces of the first silicone pad 2-1 and the first head rubber pad 2-8 through its corresponding two edge sides, and the fourth corner rubber pad connecting block 2-7 is connected to the corresponding end faces of the second silicone pad 2-2 and the second head rubber pad 2-9 through its corresponding two edge sides to prevent the first silicone pad 2-1 and the second silicone pad 2-2 from shaking.

[0033] In this embodiment, see Figure 5Preferably, two inclined arc surfaces 2-10 that are concave toward the middle are symmetrically arranged on the top surfaces of the first head rubber pad 2-8 and the second head rubber pad 2-9. The two inclined arc surfaces 2-10 are convenient for simulating the shape of the patient's forehead to present a downward concave shape, so that the patient's head can maintain a comfortable support posture.

[0034] In this embodiment, see Figure 5 Preferably, the top and inner side surfaces of the neck rubber pad 2-3 are both configured as arc-shaped concave surfaces 2-11, which facilitate stable support for the downwardly protruding portion of the neck. It is worth noting that the neck rubber pad has different heights when placed horizontally and vertically. When placed horizontally, the neck rubber pad is shorter, facilitating stable support for the downwardly protruding portion of the neck. When placed vertically, it is too high to provide support for the neck.

[0035] In this embodiment, see Figure 5 Preferably, the first silicone pad 2-1 and the second silicone pad 2-2 are both curved long strips, and grooves 2-12 are provided on the first silicone pad 2-1 and the second silicone pad 2-2. The grooves 2-12 facilitate the insertion of a tracheal tube and connection with an external air source.

[0036] In this embodiment, see Figure 2 、 3 Specifically, the adjusting screw 1-6 is a double-ended screw with two halves that rotate in opposite directions. An adjusting nut 1-7 is disposed in the middle of the adjusting screw 1-6. Clockwise rotation of the adjusting nut 1-7 reduces the distance between the first silicone pad 2-1 and the second silicone pad 2-2. Counterclockwise rotation of the adjusting nut 1-7 increases the distance between the first silicone pad 2-1 and the second silicone pad 2-2. By adjusting the distance between the first silicone pad 2-1 and the second silicone pad 2-2, the support and protection can be adapted to faces of different sizes. It is understandable that the screw and nut are fixed together. Rotating the nut drives the entire screw to rotate. When the screw rotates, the distance between the first sleeve and the second sleeve changes, thereby changing the distance between the two silicone pads, thereby achieving fine-tuning of the distance between the two silicone pads.

[0037] It can be seen from the above technical solution that during use, when the patient needs to maintain a prone position, the patient's forehead is placed on top of the first head rubber pad 2-8 and the second head rubber pad 2-9, the chin is placed on the neck rubber pad 2-3, and the face is placed on top of the first silicone pad 2-1 and the second silicone pad 2-2. According to the size of the patient's face, the adjusting nut 1-7 on the adjusting screw 1-6 is appropriately turned to make fine adjustments so that the distance between the pair of first silicone pads 2-1 and the second silicone pad 2-2 is widened or narrowed to fit faces of different widths. In addition, because the left and right first silicone pads 2-1 and the second silicone pad 2-2 have metal hoses inside, they can bend under external force conditions and their curvature can be changed, such as changing "()" to "〔〕" or "<>" to fit the contours of different facial shapes. In addition, when the patient has a tracheal intubation, the tracheal tube can extend out through the groove 2-10 of the long silicone pad;

[0038] When the patient needs to maintain a reclined head position, the screw is removed, and the neck rubber pad 2-3 is positioned horizontally beneath the neck to prevent the neck from hanging in the air. This ensures neck stability and allows the surgeon to carefully isolate and protect important structures such as the recurrent laryngeal nerve, superior laryngeal nerve, and cervical blood vessels during thyroid surgery to prevent nerve and vascular damage. Additionally, the first and second silicone pads 2-1 and 2-2 on either side of the face prevent side-to-side head movement that could cause neck movement. The first and second silicone pads 2-1 and 2-2 contain flexible metal tubes that can bend under external forces, changing their curvature—for example, changing the "()" to "〔〕" or "<>"—to better conform to the contours of the face and maintain a stable clamp.

[0039] Those skilled in the art will readily conceive of other embodiments of the present invention after considering the specification and practicing the invention disclosed herein. This invention is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of the invention that follow the general principles of the invention and include common knowledge or customary techniques in the art not disclosed herein. The description and examples are to be considered merely as exemplary; the true scope of the invention is indicated by the claims.

[0040] It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the precise structure described above and shown in the accompanying drawings, and various modifications and changes can be made without departing from its scope. The above-described embodiments of the present invention do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of the present invention.
