Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical devices, specifically relating to a lower limb elevation frame for relieving postpartum edema. Background Technology

[0002] Postpartum women who need to stay in bed after a cesarean section often experience lower limb edema. Currently, the most common approach is to elevate the lower limbs to reduce swelling, aiming to promote venous blood return, eliminate swelling, and alleviate patient discomfort. While some support frames can support the patient's legs, they are mostly localized or only address the calf. This type of support leaves the knee unsupported, leading to knee hyperextension and discomfort. Furthermore, these frames do not conform to the limb's contours, and the support points can cause pressure and discomfort. Therefore, to avoid the shortcomings of existing technologies, it is necessary to improve them. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a lower limb elevator for relieving postpartum edema. It can elevate the lower limbs while conforming to the limbs, avoiding the situation where only a part of the leg is supported, which would cause the knee to be suspended in the air, and avoiding the discomfort caused by the support point compressing the leg.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A lower limb elevator for relieving postpartum edema includes a thigh support, a calf support, a movable thigh frame, a movable calf frame, a first movable rod, and a second movable rod.

[0027] Please also refer to Figures 1 to 3 The lower limb elevation frame for relieving postpartum edema provided in the embodiments of this utility model will now be described.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the lower limb elevator of this utility model for relieving postpartum edema includes a thigh support 100, a calf support 200, a thigh movable frame 300, a calf movable frame 400, a first movable rod 310, and a second movable rod 410. The thigh support 100 and the calf support 200 are connected. The thigh support 100 is provided with a first sliding groove 110, and the calf support 200 is provided with a second sliding groove 210. The end of the thigh movable frame 300 away from the calf support 200 is hinged to the thigh support 100, and the end of the thigh movable frame 300 close to the calf support 200 is hinged to the thigh support 100. One end of the 00 is hinged to one end of the first movable rod 310, and the other end of the first movable rod 310 is slidably installed in the first sliding groove 110. The end of the lower leg movable frame 400 near the thigh support 100 is hinged to the lower leg support 200, and the end of the lower leg movable frame 400 away from the thigh support 100 is hinged to one end of the second movable rod 410. The other end of the second movable rod 410 is slidably installed in the second sliding groove 210. A thigh guard plate 500 is provided on the thigh movable frame 300, and a lower leg guard plate 600 is provided on the lower leg movable frame 400.

[0029] For example, a first track rod 130 is provided in the first sliding groove 110, and a first sliding sleeve 320 is hinged to the end of the first movable rod 310. The first sliding sleeve 320 is slidably sleeved on the first track rod 130.

[0030] A second track rod 230 is provided in the second sliding groove 210. A second sliding sleeve 420 is hinged to the end of the second movable rod 410. The second sliding sleeve 420 is slidably sleeved on the second track rod 230. The first movable rod 310 is lifted by sliding the first sliding sleeve 320 along the first track rod 130. The structure is simple. The first track rod 130 plays a guiding role to stabilize the sliding direction of the first sliding sleeve 320. The first movable rod 310 is hinged to the first sliding sleeve 320. When the first sliding sleeve 320 slides along the first track rod 130, the first movable rod 310 rotates along the hinge point with the first sliding sleeve 320, which drives the end of the first movable rod 310 that is hinged to the thigh movable frame 300 to be lifted. Similarly, the second sliding sleeve 420 slides along the second track rod 230 to drive the lower leg movable frame 400 to be lifted.

[0031] For example, the thigh support 100 has a first strip hole 120 on its side that communicates with the first sliding groove 110, and the thigh support 100 has a first clamping bolt 710 on its side. The first clamping bolt 710 can pass through the first strip hole 120 to clamp the first sliding sleeve 320.

[0032] The lower leg support 200 has a second strip hole 220 on its side that communicates with the second sliding groove 210. The lower leg support 200 is provided with a second clamping bolt 810 on its side. The second clamping bolt 810 can pass through the second strip hole 220 to clamp the second sliding sleeve 420. After the thigh movable frame 300 is adjusted to a suitable height, the first clamping bolt 710 is tightened to ensure that the first sliding sleeve 320 does not shift. Similarly, the second clamping bolt 810 is tightened to clamp the second sliding sleeve 420. In this way, the height of the thigh movable frame 300 and the lower leg movable frame 400 is locked and will not fall down due to gravity.

[0033] For example, the thigh support 100 has a first extension 700 on its side. The first extension 700 has a first fixed sprocket 720 and a first adjusting sprocket 730 at its two ends. The first fixed sprocket 720 is fixedly connected to the first clamping bolt 710. The first fixed sprocket 720 and the first adjusting sprocket 730 are connected by a chain drive. The first adjusting sprocket 730 is fixedly connected to a first handwheel 740.

[0034] The lower leg support 200 has a second extension 800 on its side. The two ends of the second extension 800 are respectively provided with a second fixed sprocket 820 and a second adjusting sprocket 830. The second fixed sprocket 820 is fixedly connected to the second clamping bolt 810. The second fixed sprocket 820 and the second adjusting sprocket 830 are connected by chain drive. The second adjusting sprocket 830 is fixedly connected to a second handwheel 840.

[0035] Rotating the first handwheel 740 drives the first adjusting sprocket 730 to rotate together. The rotation of the first adjusting sprocket 730 drives the first fixed sprocket 720 to rotate via chain transmission. The first fixed sprocket 720 is connected to the first clamping bolt 710, thereby driving the first clamping bolt 710 to rotate, achieving the effect of tightening or loosening the first clamping bolt 710. In this way, rotating the first handwheel 740 can adjust the first clamping bolt 710, so that the first extension 700 can extend the operating position, making it convenient for the user to adjust the height of the thigh movement frame 300 by rotating the first handwheel 740 of the first extension 700 while lying down. Similarly, the second extension 800 allows the patient to adjust the height of the lower leg movement frame 400 by rotating the second handwheel 840 while lying down.

[0036] For example, one side of the thigh guard 500 is provided with a strap 510, and the other side of the thigh guard 500 is provided with a buckle 520. One side of the calf guard 600 is provided with a strap 510, and the other side of the calf guard 600 is provided with a buckle 520. The strap 510 passes through the buckle 520 and is locked in place, thereby achieving the function of binding and fixing the patient's thigh and calf.

[0037] Specifically, the strap 510 is a Velcro strap, which passes through the buckle 520 and is then attached and secured, making it easy to untie and use.

[0038] For example, both the thigh guard 500 and the calf guard 600 are arc-shaped plate structures, which can fit better on the surface of the human thigh and calf.

[0039] For example, the thigh support 100 and the calf support 200 are hinged at the connection point, which makes it convenient for the patient to get out of bed and move around with the lower limb elevator for relieving postpartum edema after the strap 510 is tied around the thigh and calf. The hinge between the thigh support 100 and the calf support 200 can adapt to leg movements and does not affect walking. After the activity is over, the patient can lie directly on the bed, and the lower limb elevator for relieving postpartum edema can still maintain the adjusted support state. It is more convenient and less laborious, and it is also convenient for the user to move and use on their own, reducing the work of caregivers.

[0040] The lower limb elevator provided by this utility model for relieving postpartum edema has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0041] The thigh support plate 500 and calf support plate 600 of this utility model provide support for the patient's thigh and calf, respectively. By mounting the thigh support plate 500 and calf support plate 600 on the thigh movable frame 300 and calf movable frame 400, respectively, the thigh support plate 500 conforms to the thigh, and the calf support plate 600 conforms to the calf. Raising the thigh movable frame 300 and calf movable frame 400 can lift the thigh support plate 500 and calf support plate 600, thereby raising the patient's leg. One end of the thigh movable frame 300 is hinged to the thigh support 100, and the other end is hinged to one end of the first movable rod 310. The other end of the first movable rod 310 is slidably mounted on the first sliding groove 110 of the thigh support 100. The first movable rod 310 is slidably mounted on the first sliding groove 110 of the thigh support 100. 10. The first movable rod 310 is driven to raise or lower one end of the thigh movable frame 300, thereby raising or lowering the end of the thigh movable frame 300 that is hinged to the first movable rod 310. The end of the thigh movable frame 300 that is hinged to the thigh support 100 rotates along the hinge, so that the thigh guard plate 500 on the thigh movable frame 300 fits against the patient's thigh. Similarly, the second movable rod 410 slides along the second sliding groove 210 to raise or lower the lower leg movable frame 400, so that the lower leg guard plate 600 has a certain inclination to fit against the patient's lower leg. After being raised, the thigh guard plate 500 and the lower leg guard plate 600 can still fit against the limb, avoiding the support point from compressing the leg and causing discomfort, and avoiding only local support, which would cause the knee to be suspended and cause hyperextension of the knee joint.

[0042] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and substitutions should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
