[0002] External fixator surgery is a surgical method for treating fractures. Its main advantages are less trauma, less stripping of the bone surface periosteum, and better fracture healing. During external fixator surgery, steel pins need to be nailed into the body.

[0003] After the existing steel needle is nailed into the body, although gauze is wrapped around the outer surface of the steel needle, the skin and muscles will rub back and forth with the steel needle, causing fluid to seep into the needle tract, which has the risk of causing infection. The gauze wrapping is relatively cumbersome, and the pressure of the gauze on the skin cannot be maintained stable. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a device that can stably prevent the friction between the skin and muscles and the steel needle to protect the needle tract. Utility Model Content

[0030] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] See also Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment is a skin pressure stabilizer used after external fixation surgery, comprising:

[0032] An external fixator assembly, the external fixator assembly comprising an external fixator body 11;

[0033] A pressure stabilization assembly, comprising a fixing plate 21, a fixing ring 22, a support rod 23, a retaining ring 24, a first telescopic spring 25, a support ring 26 and an air cushion 27;

[0034] The fixing plate 21 is clamped to the outer side of the outer fixing frame body 11, the fixing ring 22 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the fixing plate 21, the support rod 23 extends outward through both sides of the fixing ring 22, the retaining ring 24 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of one end of the support rod 23, the first telescopic spring 25 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the retaining ring 24, the supporting ring 26 is fixedly connected to the other end of the first telescopic spring 25, and the air cushion 27 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the supporting ring 26;

[0035] The fixing plate 21 is used to support the fixing ring 22, the fixing ring 22 is used to support the support rod 23, the support rod 23 is used to support the retaining ring 24, the retaining ring 24 is used to support the first telescopic spring 25, the first telescopic spring 25 is used to apply pressure to the supporting ring 26, and the air cushion 27 is used to contact the skin;

[0036] The external fixator assembly further includes a steel pin 12;

[0037] The steel needle 12 passes through the interior of the external fixator body 11 and extends outward;

[0038] The external fixator body 11 is used to fix the steel needle 12, and the steel needle 12 is used to be nailed into the human body;

[0039] The air cushion 27 is located outside the steel needle 12 and has a circular ring structure.

[0040] The air cushion 27 applies downward pressure to the skin outside the steel needle 12 to prevent friction between the skin and the outside of the steel needle 12;

[0041] A threaded structure is provided on the outer surface of the support rod 23, and one end of the support rod 23 is located on one side of the interior of the first telescopic spring 25;

[0042] The support rod 23 can move inside the fixed ring 22, and can be fixed inside the fixed ring 22 by a nut;

[0043] Working principle: When it is necessary to apply stable pressure to the skin, the support rod 23 is moved to the internal position of the fixed ring 22, so that the support rod 23 drives the baffle ring 24 to move, and the baffle ring 24 drives the first telescopic spring 25 to move, so that the first telescopic spring 25 drives the support ring 26 and the air cushion 27 to move. When the air cushion 27 moves to contact the skin outside the steel needle 12, the support rod 23 is continued to be moved. Since the air cushion 27 is blocked by the skin, the first telescopic spring 25 is compressed to generate elastic force, and then the support rod 23 is fixed to the fixed ring 22 by a nut. At this time, the elastic force generated by the first telescopic spring 25 can continuously apply pressure to the support ring 26, so that the support ring 26 can continuously and stably apply pressure to the air cushion 27, thereby avoiding contact between the skin and the steel needle 12 and friction.

[0044] See also Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment is based on the above embodiment and also includes:

[0045] A movable assembly, comprising a fixing hole 31, a through hole 32, a second telescopic spring 33, a baffle 34 and a limiting column 35;

[0046] The fixing hole 31 is formed at the outer side of the outer fixing frame body 11, the through hole 32 is formed at the outer end of the fixing plate 21, the second telescopic spring 33 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the fixing plate 21, the baffle 34 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the second telescopic spring 33, and the limiting column 35 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the baffle 34;

[0047] The fixing hole 31 and the through hole 32 are used to place the limiting column 35. The second telescopic spring 33 is used to drive the baffle 34 to reset. The baffle 34 is used to support the limiting column 35. The limiting column 35 is used to limit the fixing plate 21.

[0048] The fixing hole 31 and the through hole 32 are square structures, and the center line of the fixing hole 31 coincides with the center line of the steel needle 12. The limiting column 35 extends inward through the through hole 32;

[0049] When the limiting post 35 is located inside the fixing hole 31 , the fixing hole 31 blocks the limiting post 35 , so that the limiting post 35 fixes the fixing plate 21 ;

[0050] Working principle: When the pressure stabilizing assembly needs to be installed, an outward force is applied to the baffle 34, so that the baffle 34 drives the second telescopic spring 33 to stretch and drives the limiting post 35 to move outward. At this time, the fixing plate 21 is moved to make the through hole 32 correspond to the fixing hole 31, and then the force applied to the baffle 34 is stopped. Under the elastic force of the second telescopic spring 33, the baffle 34 moves inward and drives the limiting post 35 to move inward. When the limiting post 35 is located inside the fixing hole 31, the fixing plate 21 can be fixed, thereby completing the installation. Moreover, since the center lines of the fixing hole 31 and the steel needle 12 coincide with each other, the fixing plate 21 can drive the center line of the fixing ring 22 and the center line of the steel needle 12 to be collinear, thereby avoiding the air cushion 27 from being skewed.

[0051] When the pressure stabilization assembly needs to be disassembled, just reverse the above steps.
