Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of neck supports, in particular to a simple neck support that can be quickly adjusted. Background Art

[0002] A cervical brace is an auxiliary treatment device for cervical spondylosis. It can brake and protect the cervical spine, reduce nerve wear, alleviate traumatic reactions of the intervertebral joints, and help to reduce tissue edema, consolidate therapeutic effects, and prevent recurrence. The cervical brace can be used for various types of cervical spondylosis, and is more suitable for patients in the acute attack period, especially for patients with cervical disc herniation, sympathetic nerve type and vertebral artery type cervical spondylosis. Since people nowadays play with mobile phones for a long time or work in front of computers for a long time, it is very common to have cervical spondylosis.

[0003] However, the existing neck support has an unreasonable shape design, does not have a good ergonomic shape, and the adjustment speed of the neck support is slow, which affects the user experience. In addition, the existing neck support structure is not stable enough and has a complex structure, which makes it difficult for users to use it.

The angle of the neck orthosis can be adjusted according to the patient's condition when the patient uses it, thereby avoiding forced correction of the patient's neck, thereby reducing the pain of the patient wearing the orthosis and improving the comfort of the patient wearing it. Secondly, the neck can also be well corrected for patients with high and low shoulders when wearing it, thereby improving the practicality of the orthosis." It uses a single screw for adjustment, has a slow speed, uses pins, etc. to increase the complexity of the structure, and does not have a good ergonomic appearance. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a simple neck support which can be adjusted quickly.

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is achieved in this way:

[0007] A simple neck brace that can be quickly adjusted includes a sponge body and an adjustment frame located inside the sponge body. The adjustment frame includes an upper bracket and a lower bracket. The upper bracket and the lower bracket cooperate with a threaded sleeve to adjust the distance and angle between the upper bracket and the lower bracket.

[0008] As a further improvement, the upper bracket and the lower bracket are integrally formed, the upper part of the upper bolt is connected to the upper bracket, and a corresponding lower bolt is provided below the upper bolt. The lower end of the lower bolt is connected to the lower bracket, and the thread rotation direction of the upper bolt is opposite to that of the corresponding lower bolt below it. When the threaded sleeve rotates, the upper bolt and the lower bolt approach or move away from each other at the same time.

[0009] As a further improvement, the upper bolt and the lower bolt are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the adjustment frame. The upper bolt and the lower bolt are both hexagonal bolts. The hexagonal heads of the upper bolt and the lower bolt are embedded in the hexagonal grooves provided on the adjustment frame and are limited by the cover above the hexagonal groove.

[0010] As a further improvement, the cover is prismatic and connected to the adjustment frame by screws; a spherical protrusion is provided at the center of the bottom surface of the cover to contact the center of the corresponding hexagonal head; the upper bolt and the lower bolt pass through the adjustment frame through the through holes provided on the adjustment frame.

[0011] As a further improvement, the connection between the upper bracket and the lower bracket has good elasticity and toughness and is arc-shaped to facilitate changes in the angle and distance between the upper bracket and the lower bracket.

[0012] As a further improvement, the upper bracket and the lower bracket are both U-shaped, the width of the connection between the upper bracket and the lower bracket is smaller than the width of the upper bracket or the lower bracket, and the width of the lower bracket is greater than the width of the upper bracket.

[0013] As a further improvement, the U-shaped depth formed by the upper bracket is smaller than the U-shaped depth formed by the lower bracket, the upper bracket is positioned further back relative to the lower bracket, the corresponding position of the lower bracket on the human body is the chest, and the upper bracket is used to support the lower jaw of the human body.

[0014] As a further improvement, the adjustment frame is located at the front of the sponge body, and the adjustment frame acts as a skeleton in the sponge body. The outer shape of the front of the sponge body corresponds to the adjustment frame.

[0015] As a further improvement, the middle of the rear of the sponge body is separated and disconnected, and furry Velcro is provided on both sides of the separated and disconnected part of the rear of the sponge body, and the left and right furry Velcro and the left and right ends of the hook Velcro are adhered to each other.

[0016] As a further improvement, the sponge body includes an upper layer and a lower layer, the bottom surface of the lower layer is a concave arc surface, and the top surface of the upper layer is a convex arc surface.

[0017] The following are the outstanding and beneficial technical effects of the present invention compared with the prior art.

[0018] (1) The upper bracket and the lower bracket are used to adjust the distance and angle between them by means of upper bolts, lower bolts and threaded sleeves. The double-bolt structure makes the neck support more quickly adjustable, doubling the adjustment speed compared to a single-bolt structure. In addition, the tilt of the left and right sides of the neck support and the height between the upper and lower layers of the body can also be adjusted. In addition, the bolt adjustment makes the adjustment more precise.

[0019] (2) The upper bracket and the lower bracket are integrally formed, and the connection between the upper bracket and the lower bracket has good elasticity and toughness and is arc-shaped, so that the angle and distance between the upper bracket and the lower bracket can be changed, thereby achieving adjustment of the height of the upper bracket; and it is arranged to be integrally formed, which is more stable and firm than the method of separating the upper bracket and the lower bracket. In addition, since there is a large adjustable space between the upper and lower brackets, the neck brace is very breathable.

[0020] (3) The width of the connection between the upper bracket and the lower bracket is smaller than the width of the upper bracket or the lower bracket. The smaller width of the connection can ensure that the connection has stronger elasticity and toughness. The width of the lower bracket is greater than the width of the upper bracket. The wider width of the lower bracket can make the support area of ​​the lower bracket larger, thereby providing more stable support.

[0021] (4) The upper bracket and the lower bracket are arranged in a U shape, the depth of the U shape formed by the upper bracket is smaller than the depth of the U shape formed by the lower bracket, the upper bracket is positioned further back relative to the lower bracket, the corresponding position of the lower bracket on the human body is the chest, and the upper bracket is used to support the lower jaw of the human body, which is more ergonomically designed and makes the user more comfortable to wear.

[0022] (5) Velcro is provided on both sides of the separation part at the rear of the sponge body. The two Velcros are attached to the left and right ends of the hook Velcro. The size of the neck brace can be extended through the above structure, so that it can adapt to a wide range of people. In addition, the hook Velcro is detachable from the Velcro on the left or right end, so that it is convenient for left-handed or right-handed people to wear it.

[0023] (6) The sponge body includes an upper layer and a lower layer. The bottom surface of the lower layer is a concave arc surface, and the top surface of the upper layer is a convex arc surface, which makes the sponge body more adaptable and more ergonomically designed.

[0024] (7) A spherical protrusion is provided at the center of the bottom surface of the cover to contact the center of the corresponding hexagonal head. The contact between the spherical surface and the plane ensures that the upper and lower bolts can swing slightly, thereby ensuring that the threaded sleeve will not get stuck during the rotation process.

[0030] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments:

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a simple neck support that can be quickly adjusted includes a sponge body 1 and an adjustment frame 2 located inside the sponge body 1. The adjustment frame 2 includes an upper bracket 3 and a lower bracket 4. The upper bracket 3 and the lower bracket 4 cooperate with the upper bolt 5 and the lower bolt 6 with the threaded sleeve 7 to achieve the adjustment of the distance and angle between the upper bracket 3 and the lower bracket 4. The following structure is specifically adopted to achieve this: the upper part of the upper bolt 5 is fixedly connected to the upper bracket 3, and the lower part of the upper bolt 5 is provided with a corresponding lower bolt 6. The lower end of the lower bolt 6 is fixedly connected to the lower bracket 4. Since the upper bolt 5 is fixedly connected to the corresponding lower bolt below it, The threads of the bracket 6 rotate in opposite directions, so when the threaded sleeve 7 is rotated by the user, the upper bolt 5 and the lower bolt 6 can be simultaneously moved closer to or away from each other, thereby extending or shortening the overall length of the upper bolt 5, the lower bolt 6 and the threaded sleeve 7, and then adjusting the distance between the upper bracket 3 and the lower bracket 4, that is, adjusting the angle between the upper bracket 3 and the lower bracket 4, so as to allow the user's chin to be raised or lowered, thereby providing good support for the user's chin and head, and facilitating good relaxation and correction of the user's neck. In addition, by adopting the above-mentioned double-bolt structure, the neck support can be adjusted more quickly, doubling the adjustment speed compared to a single-bolt structure, and at the same time, the inclination of the left and right sides of the neck support and the height between the upper layer 13 and the lower layer 14 of the body can be adjusted; the user can raise his head and chin through adjustment.

[0032] The above-mentioned adjustment of the degree of inclination is mainly achieved through the following specific adjustments: when the user's neck or head is tilted to the left, the user can increase the overall height of the upper bolt 5, lower bolt 6 and threaded sleeve 7 on the left side of the sponge body 1, and make the corresponding right side height lower than the left side, so as to correct the tilted posture of the user's neck or head. Conversely, when the user's neck or head is tilted to the right, the overall height of the upper bolt 5, lower bolt 6 and threaded sleeve 7 on the right side of the sponge body 1 can be increased, and the corresponding left side height can be lowered than the right side, thereby also achieving the correction of the user's posture. In addition, since no excessive connecting parts such as pins are used, the neck support structure is more stable and simple.

[0033] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the upper bolt 5 and the lower bolt 6 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the adjustment frame 2. The upper bolt 5 and the lower bolt 6 are both hexagonal bolts. The hexagonal heads 12 of the upper bolt 5 and the lower bolt 6 are embedded in the hexagonal grooves 17 provided on the adjustment frame 2 and are limited by the cover 8 above the hexagonal grooves 17. The cover 8 is prismatic and connected to the adjustment frame 2 by screws. The center of the bottom surface of the cover 8 is provided with a spherical protrusion that contacts the center of the corresponding hexagonal head 12; the upper bolt 5 and the lower bolt 6 pass through the adjustment frame 2 through the through hole 9 provided on the adjustment frame 2, wherein the hexagonal grooves 17 limit the rotation of the hexagonal heads 12 on the upper bolt 5 and the lower bolt 6, and then pass through The protrusion of the spherical surface of the cover 8 fixes the hexagonal head 12 in the hexagonal groove 17, limiting its up and down movement. However, due to the contact limiting method between the spherical surface and the plane, the hexagonal head 12 is not completely fixed, but can also rotate slightly relative to the above-mentioned spherical surface. Since the opening angle of the adjustment frame 2 changes during the adjustment process, if the upper bolt 5 and the lower bolt 6 are completely fixed, the upper bolt 5, the lower bolt 6 and the threaded sleeve 7 will become stuck during the rotation adjustment process and cannot rotate smoothly. Therefore, it is crucial to design the lower bolt 6 and the threaded sleeve 7 to be able to swing slightly through the above-mentioned technical solution.

[0034] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the upper bracket 3 and the lower bracket 4 are integrally formed, and the connection 18 between the upper bracket 3 and the lower bracket 4 has good elasticity and toughness and is arc-shaped, so as to change the angle and distance between the upper bracket 3 and the lower bracket 4. The upper bracket 3 and the lower bracket 4 are both U-shaped, and the width of the connection 18 between the upper bracket 3 and the lower bracket 4 is smaller than the width of the upper bracket 3 or the lower bracket 4. The smaller width of the connection 18 can ensure that the connection 18 has stronger elasticity and toughness. The width of the lower bracket 4 is greater than the width of the upper bracket 3. The wider width of the lower bracket 4 relative to the upper bracket 3 can make the support area of ​​the lower bracket 4 larger, thereby providing more stable support.

[0035] The U-shaped depth formed by the upper bracket 3 is smaller than the U-shaped depth formed by the lower bracket 4. The upper bracket 3 is positioned further back relative to the lower bracket 4. The corresponding position of the lower bracket 4 on the human body is the chest. The upper bracket 3 is used to support the lower jaw of the human body. After wearing the neck brace, this structural design of the neck brace can allow the user's neck and head to move backward and upward after wearing, thereby achieving a good relaxation and correction effect, and is more ergonomically designed, making it more comfortable for users to wear.

[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the adjustment frame 2 is located at the front of the sponge body 1 . The adjustment frame 2 acts as a skeleton in the sponge body 1 . The shape of the front of the sponge body 1 corresponds to the adjustment frame 2 .

[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, the middle of the rear of the sponge body 1 is separated and disconnected, and both sides of the separated and disconnected part of the rear of the sponge body 1 are provided with a fleece-surface Velcro 10, and the left and right ends of the two fleece-surface Velcro 10 and the left and right ends of the hook-surface Velcro 11 are pasted to each other. Since the neck size of each person is different, the connection method of the Velcro can adapt to different people; Figure 3 As shown, the sponge body 1 includes an upper layer 13 and a lower layer 14. The bottom surface of the lower layer 14 is a concave arc surface 15, and the top surface of the upper layer 13 is a convex arc surface 16 that bulges outward. The arc surface 15 is set to allow the lower layer 14 to adapt to the chests of different shapes and sizes of different people, conform to the ergonomic design, and make users more comfortable to wear.

[0038] The above embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
