Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sports injury protective gear, in particular to a novel ankle joint swelling prevention protective gear. Background Art

[0002] After an ankle injury during sports, significant swelling will occur. The skin around the ankle joint will initially become tight and shiny, with swelling rising from the injured area, blurring the ankle's outline. Initially, the skin will turn red due to inflammation. Over time, if the swelling persists, the color will deepen to purple-red, caused by blood congestion and subcutaneous accumulation of tissue fluid. The swelling may gradually spread from the injured joint space or around the ligament attachment point to the entire ankle joint, including the instep and part of the heel.

[0003] For example, a Chinese utility model patent (CN217853527U) discloses a protective gear for preventing ankle swelling, which states: "It can be expanded and closed through the movable part, and the ankle joint is wrapped in an inflatable manner, which can prevent swelling after acute ankle sprains. It is suitable for emergency care of acute ankle sprains in competitive sports and collision sports, and is suitable for promotion and use." It also states: "Compression bandaging is a major professional barrier for most people with sports injuries; it is usually difficult for us to predict the time, place, degree, etc. of sports injuries, and improper operation can lead to poor blood circulation or increased swelling; therefore, simple and feasible therapeutic protective gear is crucial for acute ankle injuries."

The portability of the device is relatively low. For this reason, the present application proposes a new ankle anti-swelling protective device to provide a new technical solution to solve the technical problems mentioned in the above patents.

[0028] In order to help those skilled in the art better understand the present invention, the following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] As described in the background technology, however, the device requires the flushing and deflation port to be connected to an external device to adjust the air pressure in the inflation cavity in the protective gear body, so the user needs to carry the above device and a suitable inflation device at the same time to use it when the ankle is injured, and the device has low portability.

[0030] In order to solve this technical problem, the utility model provides a novel ankle joint anti-swelling protector, which is used to prevent swelling of ankle sports injuries.

[0031] Specifically, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 2 The new ankle joint anti-swelling protective gear specifically includes:

[0032] The protective gear body 1 has a plurality of binding rings 2 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the protective gear body 1, a plurality of straps 3 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the straps 3, positive Velcro 4 and reverse Velcro 5 that adapt to each other are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the straps 3, a pressure gauge 6 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the protective gear body 1, an inflation mechanism 7 is provided on the protective gear body 1, and a restriction mechanism 8 is provided on the protective gear body 1;

[0033] The inflation mechanism 7 includes an air cylinder 9, a hose 10, a connecting shell 11, a mounting assembly, a push-pull assembly, and a supporting assembly. The top of the air cylinder 9 is fixedly connected to the hose 10, and the end of the hose 10 away from the air cylinder 9 is fixedly connected to the connecting shell 11.

[0034] The new ankle joint swelling prevention protective gear provided by the present invention can fix the position of the air cylinder 9 by pulling the insertion rod 13 and inserting the insertion block 14 on the air cylinder 9 into the mounting block 12, and then loosening the insertion rod 13. When the insertion block 14 is inserted into the mounting block 12, the push piece 19 can be inserted into the fixing shell 17, and the inflation mechanism 7 can be installed on the protective gear main body 1, thereby avoiding the need for the user to carry both the protective gear and the inflation device to the vicinity of the sports field, thereby improving the portability of the device. When the device needs to be used, the user first puts on the protective gear main body 1, and only needs to pull the insertion rod 13 to leave the insertion block 14, and then the air cylinder 9 can be pulled out and the air cylinder 9 can be removed for inflating. The disassembly of the air cylinder 9 is relatively simple, which shortens the inflation preparation time, and the interior of the protective gear main body 1 can be inflated faster, thereby improving the practicality of the device.

[0035] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present invention, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0036] Example 1:

[0037] Please refer to Figure 2-Figure 5 , a new ankle joint anti-swelling protective device, comprising:

[0038] The mounting assembly includes a mounting block 12, the outer wall of the protective gear body 1 is fixedly connected to the mounting block 12, the outer wall of the air cylinder 9 is fixedly connected to the plug block 14, the plug block 14 is movably inserted in the mounting block 12, the inner wall of the mounting block 12 is slidably connected to the plug rod 13, the plug rod 13 is slidably inserted in the plug block 14, and one end of the plug rod 13 located outside the mounting block 12 is fixedly connected to a pull ring for pulling the plug rod 13, so as to facilitate the user to install and disassemble the air cylinder 9, the outer wall of the plug rod 13 is fixedly connected to a fixing ring 15, and the outer side of the plug rod 13 is provided with a first spring 16, and the two ends of the first spring 16 are respectively fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixing ring 15 and the inner wall of the mounting block 12.

[0039] The push-pull assembly includes a piston 20, the inner wall of the air cylinder 9 is slidably connected to the piston 20, the bottom of the piston 20 is fixedly connected to the push rod 18, a plurality of ventilation holes 21 are opened on the piston 20, and a T-shaped column 22 is fixedly connected to the top and center of the piston 20. The outside of the T-shaped column 22 is slidably connected to the baffle 23. When inflating the inside of the inflation cavity of the protective gear body 1, the user pushes the piston 20 so that the gas inside the space formed by the piston 20 and the air cylinder 9 is compressed. The compressed gas pushes the baffle 23 against the piston 20, and then relies on the baffle 23 to block the ventilation hole 21. The compressed air enters the corresponding support shell 24 through the hose 10 and the connecting shell 11, and then pushes against the The blocking ball 27 causes the sliding rod 26 to move eastward inside the support frame 25, causing the second spring 28 to deform, causing the blocking ball 27 to leave the baffle 29, and then the compressed air can pass through the support shell 24 into the protective gear body 1, and then under the action of the elastic force of the second spring 28, the blocking ball 27 is again pressed against the baffle 29 to prevent the air in the protective gear body 1 from flowing out in the opposite direction. When the push rod 18 is subsequently pulled outward, the piston 20 and the space inside the air cylinder 9 form a negative pressure, and then the external air pushes up the baffle 23 through the ventilation hole 21, and the external air then enters the space formed by the air cylinder 9 and the piston 20, and then the push rod 18 is pushed to perform the inflation operation again.

[0040] The support assembly includes a push piece 19, the bottom end of the push rod 18 is fixedly connected to the push piece 19, the outer wall of the protective gear body 1 is fixedly connected to the fixed shell 17, the push piece 19 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixed shell 17, and the push piece 19 is stuck in the fixed shell 17. This can reduce the situation in which the push piece 19, the push rod 18, the piston 20, the T-shaped column 22 and the baffle 23 are separated from the air cylinder 9 and lost during transportation, resulting in the device being unusable, thereby improving the stability of the device.

[0041] Through the above structural design, by pulling the insertion rod 13, the fixing ring 15 moves accordingly, causing the first spring 16 to be deformed accordingly, and then the insertion block 14 on the air cylinder 9 is inserted into the mounting block 12. Then, the insertion rod 13 is loosened and the insertion rod 13 can be inserted into the insertion block 14 under the action of the elastic force of the first spring 16, thereby fixing the position of the air cylinder 9, and when the insertion block 14 is inserted into the mounting block 12, the push piece 19 can be inserted into the fixed shell 17, and then the inflation mechanism 7 can be installed on the protective gear body 1. When the device needs to be used, the user first puts on the protective gear body 1, and only needs to pull the insertion rod 13 to leave the insertion block 14, and then the air cylinder 9 can be pulled out, and the air cylinder 9 can be removed to inflate the inflation cavity inside the protective gear body 1.

[0042] Example 2:

[0043] The new ankle joint anti-swelling protective gear provided in Example 1 is further optimized, specifically, as Figure 6As shown, the limiting mechanism 8 includes two support shells 24, the inner walls of the two support shells 24 are fixedly connected to the support frames 25, the inner walls of the two support shells 24 are fixedly connected to the baffles 29, the inner walls of the two support frames 25 are slidably connected to the sliding rods 26, and the ends of the two sliding rods 26 close to the baffles 29 are fixedly connected to the blocking balls 27, and the outsides of the two sliding rods 26 are respectively sleeved with second springs 28, and the two ends of the second spring 28 are respectively fixedly connected to the outer walls of the support frames 25 and the blocking balls 27. The blocking balls 27 can be tightly attached to the baffles 29 under the action of the elastic force of the second spring 28. When the gas in the internal inflation cavity of the protective gear body 1 is sufficient, the blocking balls 27 can be further attached to the outside of the baffles 29 under the action of the internal air pressure, thereby further reducing gas leakage.

[0044] One of the support shells 24 is located on one side outside the protective gear body 1 and is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting shell 11. The outer wall of a blocking ball 27 away from the connecting shell 11 is fixedly connected to the extrusion rod 30. The connecting shell 11 is connected to the support shell 24 without the extrusion rod 30 inside. Compared with external inflation equipment, the time for assembling the inflation tube and the inflation nozzle is reduced, the preparation time for inflation is reduced, and the practicality of the device is improved.

[0045] Through the above-mentioned structural design, by connecting the connecting shell 11 with one of the supporting shells 24, the gas in the connecting shell 11 can squeeze the corresponding blocking ball 27, so that the blocking ball 27 is separated from the baffle 29, and the second spring 28 is deformed accordingly, thereby allowing external gas to enter the protective gear main body 1 through the supporting shell 24 for inflation, and under the action of the elastic force of the two second springs 28, the blocking ball 27 can be tightly attached to the baffle 29 when not subject to external force, thereby preventing the gas inside the protective gear main body 1 from flowing to the outside through the supporting shell 24, and by pushing the extrusion rod 30, the corresponding blocking ball 27 can be driven to leave the baffle 29, thereby releasing the gas in the protective gear main body 1 to the outside, and then the air pressure in the inflation chamber of the protective gear main body 1 can be reduced and adjusted when the air pressure is too high.

[0046] In the present application, the interior of the protective gear body 1 is hollow and formed into an inflation cavity, the inner side surface of the protective gear body 1 is an elastic material layer, the support shell 24 is connected to the inflation cavity in the protective gear body 1, the pressure gauge 6 is connected to the inflation cavity, and the pressure gauge 6 displays the air pressure in the inflation cavity.
