Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of facial supports, in particular to a maxillofacial support. Background Art
[0002] In the delicate field of medical surgery and cosmetic surgery, the reshaping of facial bone structure or the repair of skin tissue is often accompanied by a complex and delicate postoperative care process.
[0003] For example, during facial bone adjustment surgeries, such as maxillofacial surgery and zygomatic bone reduction, surgeons use delicate techniques to cut, reshape, or move bones to improve facial contours. However, the bones need time to adjust to their new positions and heal after surgery. This is where specialized facial bone supports play an irreplaceable role. These supports are typically made of high-strength materials such as titanium alloy and stainless steel. They are precisely designed to fit snugly into the facial contours, provide stable support for the bones, prevent displacement, and promote healing.
[0004] The use of scaffolds is also crucial in skin repair surgeries, such as facelifts and scar repair. During surgery, doctors will lift, excise, or fill the skin to improve problems such as sagging, wrinkles, or scars. Postoperatively, to maintain skin firmness and smoothness, doctors will use skin scaffolds. These scaffolds may be mesh structures made of biocompatible materials that gently conform to the skin surface, providing uniform support for the skin and promoting collagen regeneration and self-repair.
[0005] The adaptability to the surgical site, precise pressing and firm support ensure the perfect presentation and long-lasting maintenance of the surgical effect. Utility Model Content
[0006] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide a maxillofacial brace, aiming to solve the problem that the existing maxillofacial brace cannot accurately press and firmly support different facial shapes.

The length direction of the hinge axis between the chin rest and the chin rest is parallel to the width direction of the chin rest. The chin rests are made of transparent material.
[0010] A plurality of air bags are detachably arranged corresponding to the inner surface of the chin rest and the inner surface of the jaw rest, and the air bags are made of transparent material.
[0011] Furthermore, a plurality of the air bags are provided on the chin rest and are arranged in an array in the length direction.

[0033] The jaw support 100 is arc-shaped in the longitudinal direction and is made of transparent material;
[0034] Two chin rests 200 are hinged to the two ends of the chin rest 100 in the length direction, respectively. The chin rests 200 are arranged in an arc shape in the length direction. The length direction of the hinge axis between the chin rest 200 and the chin rest 100 is parallel to the width direction of the chin rest 100. The chin rests 200 are made of transparent material.
[0035] A plurality of air bags 300 are detachably provided corresponding to the inner surface of the chin rest 200 and the inner surface of the jaw rest 100 , respectively. The air bags 300 are made of transparent material.
[0036] In the existing technology, it is impossible to adapt the surgical site well, and it is impossible to perform precise pressing and stable support.
[0037] In the present invention, the jaw support 100 is arc-shaped in length and made of transparent material. The jaw support 100 can also be arc-shaped in width to provide better supporting effect.
[0038] The two chin rests 200 are hinged to the two ends of the chin rest 100 in the length direction. Then, various overall shapes can be formed between the chin rest 200 and the chin rest 100, so that the flexibility of the overall shape is improved, thereby achieving a better support effect for various face shapes. The chin rest 200 is arranged in an arc shape in the length direction, and the chin rest 200 can also be curved in the width direction, thereby providing a better support effect. The length direction of the hinge axis of the chin rest 200 and the chin rest 100 is parallel to the width direction of the chin rest 100, and the chin rest 200 is made of a transparent material. The material of the chin rest 100 and the chin rest 200 is limited to transparent so that the user can better observe the usage status (skin smoothness, etc.). Specifically, the choice of material for the two can be various types of plastics, etc. For example, the material of the chin rest 100 and the chin rest 200 is one of polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polycarbonate and polymethyl methacrylate.
[0039] Multiple airbags 300 are removably mounted on the inner surfaces of the chin rest 200 and the inner surfaces of the jaw rest 100. The airbags 300 contact the user's face, creating a flexible grip. The airbags 300 are transparent, allowing the user to better observe the user's usage. By replacing the airbags 300 or adjusting the air volume within them, even better support can be achieved.
[0040] In summary, the two chin rests 200 are hinged to the two ends of the chin rest 100 in the length direction, so that various overall shapes can be formed between the chin rest 200 and the chin rest 100, thereby achieving a better support effect for various face shapes; the materials of the chin rest 100 and the chin rest 200 are limited to transparent, so that the user can better observe the usage status; multiple air bags 300 are detachably provided corresponding to the inner surface of the chin rest 200 and the inner surface of the chin rest 100 respectively. A flexible clamping effect is achieved by the contact between the air bags 300 and the user's face. The air bags 300 are made of transparent material, so that the user can better observe the usage status. By replacing the air bags 300 or adjusting the amount of air in the air bags 300, a more superior support effect can be achieved.

For example, two air bags 300 are provided on the chin rest 200 and arranged along the length of the chin rest 200, so that the chin rest 200 can be adapted to different cheek curvatures through appropriate combination.
[0043] Reference Figures 1 to 6 In one embodiment, a plurality of the airbags 300 are provided on the jaw support 100 and are arranged in a longitudinal direction.
[0044] In this embodiment, multiple airbags 300 are spaced apart along the length of the jaw support 100, thereby improving the flexibility of use. For example, two airbags 300 are provided on the jaw support 100 and arranged along the length of the jaw support 100, so that the jaw support 100 can be adapted to different jaw curvatures through appropriate matching.
[0045] Reference Figures 1 to 6 In one embodiment, the plurality of air bags 300 on the chin rest 200 are spaced apart at two intervals in the width direction of the chin rest 200 ; the plurality of air bags 300 on the chin rest 100 are spaced apart at two intervals in the width direction of the chin rest 100 .
[0046] In this embodiment, the air bags 300 spaced apart in the length direction of the chin rest 200 and the jaw rest 100 can match different facial curves, while increasing the number of the air bags 300 in the thickness direction allows for greater flexibility in use.
