Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical assistive device technology, specifically a foot brace. Background Technology

[0002] Diabetic foot refers to foot infections, ulcers, and / or deep tissue damage caused by distal neuropathy and varying degrees of peripheral vascular disease in diabetic patients. Diabetic foot is one of the chronic complications of diabetes and is a general term for foot pain, skin ulcers, and other lesions caused by a combination of diabetic factors. In addition, diabetic patients are also prone to peripheral neuropathy. Due to long-term hyperglycemia, diabetic patients can damage nerves, especially the peripheral nerves of the lower limbs, leading to decreased or lost sensation. This can easily cause foot injuries without the patient realizing it, resulting in damage and deformity of the soft tissues and musculoskeletal system of the foot, and thus a series of foot problems. When the condition is severe, foot braces are needed to protect the patient's feet.

[0003] However, the existing technology has the following problems when used in practice;

[0004] 1. Patients with diabetic foot caused by diabetes need to frequently stimulate the nerves in their feet to maintain their feet's normal function. However, existing equipment can only protect the patient's feet when used, and its function is relatively limited.

[0005] 2. The existing equipment can only be fixed to the patient's feet when in use. It is easy for the equipment to fall off when the patient moves, which is quite inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0017] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0018] This utility model provides a foot brace, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] 1. This foot support frame, through the coordinated design of a load-bearing plate, a rotating shaft, a rubber pad, and a massage ball, allows the patient to place their foot on the top of the rubber pad when in use. The rotating shaft causes the rubber pad to undulate, while the massage ball on top of the rubber pad massages and stimulates the patient's foot. This avoids the problem of existing devices that only provide basic foot protection. Furthermore, the rubber pad provides a soft contact surface for the patient's foot, increasing foot comfort.

[0020] 2. This foot brace, through the combination of a limiting shell, a load-bearing plate, and a tightening strap, allows for easier fixation of the limiting shell at the upper end of the load-bearing plate to the patient's leg when in use. This provides additional tension to the load-bearing plate on the patient's foot, resulting in a more secure and stable fixation of the device to the patient. The tightening strap also allows for adaptation to different leg sizes. Attached Figure Description

With the setting of the sponge pad 12, extra comfort and protection are provided, and the direct pressure of hard parts on the legs is reduced. With the setting of the ventilation port 13, heat dissipation is used to prevent the patient's legs from becoming too stuffy.

[0030] Example 2;

[0031] Please see Figures 1 to 5 To more conveniently provide driving force to the rotating shaft 4, a fastening strap 3 for fastening is bolted to the side of the limiting shell 1. One end of the fastening strap 3 is inserted into a limiting post 15 for fixing. The limiting post 15 passes through one side of the fastening strap 3 and is inserted into the inside of the limiting shell 1. The lower surface of the limiting shell 1 is engaged with the upper end of the load-bearing plate 2. A motor 10 is bolted to the side of the load-bearing plate 2. The output end of the motor 10 passes through one side of the load-bearing plate 2 and is inserted into the inside of the rotating shaft 4. With the help of the limiting post 15, one end of the fastening strap 3 can be fixed to the side of the limiting shell 1. With the help of the motor 10, power is provided to drive the rotating shaft 4, so that the rotating shaft 4 can rotate.

[0032] Example 3;

[0033] Please see Figures 1 to 5 To facilitate the fixing of the rubber pad 5, a rotating shaft 4 for transmission is clamped to the inner wall of the load-bearing plate 2. One end of the rotating shaft 4 is fixedly connected to a positioning shaft 8 for limiting. A belt 9 for transmission is sleeved on the outer surface of the positioning shaft 8. The upper end of the load-bearing plate 2 is connected to a protective rubber pad 5 by bolts. A pin 7 for fixing is inserted into the upper end of the rubber pad 5.

[0035] In this invention, the working steps of the device are as follows:

[0036] First, the limiting shell 1 is placed on the outer surface of the patient's leg. The limiting shell 1 is fixed to the patient's leg by the tightening action of the tightening strap 3, ensuring that the limiting shell 1 fits tightly to the patient's leg without any looseness. Then, the load-bearing plate 2 is fixed to the patient's foot by the tightening strap 3 at the upper end of the load-bearing plate 2. Then, the power supply of the motor 10 is turned on, and the motor 10 drives the rotating shaft 4 to rotate, thereby causing the rubber pad 5 and the massage ball 6 to produce undulation and massage effect.
