Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of eyelid support structure, and in particular to an eyelid support. Background Technology

[0002] During surgery or cleaning of the eyes (such as the eyeball or eyelid), it is necessary to pull the eyelid open to expose the eyeball or the inner side of the eyelid. This process requires the use of an eyelid-stretching plate (or eye bag hook) to perform this eyelid stretching action.

[0003] Currently, eye bag hooks typically feature a hook-like structure at one end of a handle. This hook can take various forms to allow for stretching of different parts of the eyelid. Existing eye bag hooks are all made of metal. Due to their thermal conductivity and specific heat properties, metal eye bag hooks offer a poor user experience, especially in sensitive areas like the eye area. Using plastic, on the other hand, is insufficient for structural strength. After use, eye bag hooks require disinfection, particularly around the hook. Thorough disinfection is crucial for safety, thus increasing the workload involved. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide an eyelid support device, which aims to solve the problems of poor user experience due to the thermal conductivity and specific heat characteristics of metal eyelid hooks, while plastic materials are difficult to meet the structural strength requirements. In addition, eyelid hooks also have the problem of high sterilization requirements after use.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an eyelid support device, comprising:

[0006] The clamping end includes a solid part and a fixing groove. The fixing groove penetrates the thickness direction of the solid part and has a consistent width at different positions in the thickness direction. The fixing groove is arranged along the length direction of the solid part and includes a small-width segment and a large-width segment. The small-width segment starts from one end of the solid part in the length direction and extends inward to connect to the large-width segment. The small-width segment is in the shape of a straight groove. The width of the large-width segment is greater than the width of the small-width segment. A post hole is provided at the middle of the thickness direction of the small-width segment on the end face of the solid part in the length direction, which leads to the large-width segment. The diameter of the post hole is greater than the width of the small-width segment.

[0007] The stretching end includes a metal wire bent to form a skeleton, the outer periphery of which is wrapped with a polymer coating layer, and the skeleton includes interconnected plug-in sections and hook-shaped sections, the plug-in sections being used to form a connection with the fixing groove;

[0008] A fixing head is provided at the free end of the plug segment;

[0009] Wherein, the diameter of the insertion segment is smaller than the width of the narrow segment, the length of the fixing head is smaller than the length of the wide segment, and the fixing head and the post hole form an elastic locking.

[0010] Furthermore, the fixing head is connected to the free end of the plug segment.

[0011] Furthermore, the solid portion is provided with multiple recesses.

[0012] Furthermore, the solid portion includes a front section and a rear section that are threadedly connected to each other, and the fixing groove is disposed at the end of the front section away from the rear section, wherein the rear section is cylindrical.

[0030] Reference Figures 1 to 6 In one embodiment of this utility model, an eyelid support includes:

[0031] The clamping end 100 includes a solid portion 110 and a fixing groove 120. The fixing groove 120 penetrates the thickness direction of the solid portion 110 and has a consistent width at different positions in the thickness direction. The fixing groove 120 is arranged along the length direction of the solid portion 110 and includes a small-width segment 121 and a large-width segment 122. The small-width segment 121 starts from one end of the solid portion 110 in the length direction and extends inward to connect to the large-width segment 122. The small-width segment 121 is in the shape of a straight groove. The width of the large-width segment 122 is greater than the width of the small-width segment 121. A post hole 123 is provided at the middle part of the small-width segment 121 in the thickness direction on the end face of the solid portion 110 in the length direction, which leads to the large-width segment 122. The diameter of the post hole 123 is greater than the width of the small-width segment 121.

[0032] The stretching end 200 includes a metal wire bent to form a skeleton, the outer periphery of which is wrapped with a polymer coating layer, and the skeleton includes an interlocking section 210 and a hook-shaped section 220 connected to each other, the interlocking section 210 being used to form a connection with the fixing groove 120;

[0033] A fixing head 300 is disposed at the free end of the plug-in section 210;

[0034] Wherein, the diameter of the plug section 210 is smaller than the width of the narrow section 121, the length of the fixing head 300 is smaller than the length of the wide section 122, and the fixing head 300 and the post hole 123 form an elastic locking.

[0035] In existing technologies, eye bag hooks are all made of metal. Due to their thermal conductivity and specific heat characteristics, metal eye bag hooks provide a poor user experience, especially in sensitive areas around the eyes. On the other hand, it is difficult to meet the structural strength requirements when using plastic materials. After use, eye bag hooks also require disinfection, especially at the hook area. Thorough disinfection is crucial for safety, thus increasing the workload of disinfection.

[0036] In this utility model, the clamping end 100 includes a solid portion 110 and a fixing groove 120. The solid portion 110 serves as the basis for handheld operation or mechanical clamping. The fixing groove 120 on the solid portion 110 is used to fix the subsequent stretching end 200. The fixing groove 120 penetrates the thickness direction of the solid portion 110 and has a consistent width at different positions in the thickness direction, which facilitates processing and is also advantageous for the subsequent installation of the stretching end 200. By limiting the fixing groove 120 to penetrate the thickness direction of the solid portion 110, the installation direction of the stretching end 200 is bidirectional. The penetrating design allows the main action to be performed on one side of the solid portion 110 during installation or disassembly, while the auxiliary action is completed on the other side of the solid portion 110. The fixing groove 120 is provided along the length direction of the solid portion 110 and includes a narrow-width section 121 and a wide-width section 122. The narrow-width section 121 starts from one end of the solid portion 110 in the length direction and extends inward to connect to the wide-width section 122. The narrow-width segment 121 is in the shape of a straight groove, and the width of the wide-width segment 122 is greater than the width of the narrow-width segment 121. A cylindrical hole 123 is provided at the middle of the thickness direction of the narrow-width segment 121 on one end face of the solid part 110, which leads to the wide-width segment 122. The diameter of the cylindrical hole 123 is greater than the width of the narrow-width segment 121.

[0037] The stretching end 200 comprises a skeleton formed by bending metal wires. Through the design and adjustment of the wire layout, various skeleton shapes can be achieved, enabling applications in various scenarios. The skeleton can be made of iron, copper, or aluminum, etc. The outer periphery of the skeleton is covered with a polymer coating layer. This polymer coating layer protects the skeleton while also providing a better skin contact experience due to differences in specific heat and thermal conductivity. The skeleton includes interconnected insertion segments 210 and hook-shaped segments 220. The insertion segments 210 connect to the fixing groove 120, while the hook-shaped segments 220 achieve the function of stretching the eyelid.

[0038] A fixing head 300 is positioned at the free end of the insertion segment 210 to secure it. The diameter of the stretching end 200 is smaller than the width of the narrow segment 121, allowing the insertion segment 210 to be inserted into the surface of the narrow segment 121. The diameter of the fixing head 300 is larger than the width of the narrow segment 121, requiring it to be inserted only from the position of the wide segment 122. During the withdrawal of the stretching end 200, the fixing head 300 and the post hole 123 form an elastic locking mechanism. Specifically, the length of the fixing head 300 is less than the length of the wide segment 122, thus meeting the requirement of insertion from the wide segment 122.

[0039] In summary, the fixing groove 120 on the solid part 110 is used to fix the stretching end 200. The fixing groove 120 is arranged along the length direction of the solid part 110 and includes a narrow width section 121 and a wide width section 122. A post hole 123 is provided on one end face of the solid part 110 along the length direction. The stretching end 200 can realize various shapes of skeletons through the layout structure design and adjustment of the metal wire, and thus can complete the functions of various scenarios. The polymer coating layer protects the skeleton, and due to the difference in specific heat and thermal conductivity, the presence of the polymer coating layer makes the stretching end 200 have a better contact experience with the skin. The fixing head 300 is set at the free end of the insertion section 210, and the fixing head 300 and the post hole 123 form an elastic lock. Moreover, the stretching end 200 can be set as a disposable product, thereby improving the hygiene level.

[0040] In one embodiment, the fixing head 300 is connected to the free end of the plug segment 210.

[0041] In this embodiment, a simple structural method is provided. For example, the processing method of the polymer coating layer is usually dry coating or wet coating. After the processing of the polymer coating layer is completed, a rubber sleeve is fitted and fixed at the free end of the plug section 210 to form the fixing head 300.

[0042] In one embodiment, the solid portion 110 is provided with a plurality of recesses.

[0043] In this embodiment, multiple recesses are provided on the solid portion 110 corresponding to the handhold position, thereby improving the handholding effect during the use of the eyelid support. Specifically, the recesses can be located in the thickness direction and / or the width direction, with the position set to improve the handholding effect.

[0044] Reference Figure 6 In one embodiment, the physical portion 110 includes a front section 111 and a rear section 112 that are threaded together, and the fixing groove 120 is disposed at the end of the front section 111 away from the rear section 112, wherein the rear section 112 is cylindrical.

[0045] Considering that currently, in addition to handheld eyelid supports, some eyelid supports can be used without holding them by adding a bracket; in this embodiment, the physical part 110 of the eyelid support is configured as a threaded front section 111 and a cylindrical rear section 112. The cylindrical rear section 112 can be inserted into the base of the external bracket, and the detachability between the front section 111 and the rear section 112 provides the freedom of external insertion by replacing the rear section 112 with different lengths or diameters, thus providing convenience for the user.

[0046] Reference Figure 5In one embodiment, the hook segment 220 includes two sub-hooks 221.

[0047] In this embodiment, the bending and arrangement of the metal wire creates two sub-hooks 221 in the width direction of the hook segment 220 to meet usage requirements. In other embodiments, the number of sub-hooks 221 can be more than two, which can be easily achieved by adjusting the bending and arrangement of the metal wire.

[0048] In one embodiment, the outer surface of the solid portion 110 is provided with anti-slip texture.

[0049] In this embodiment, the anti-slip texture can be various shapes of raised stripes, raised dots, etc., and the size of the protrusions can be from 0.5 to 2 millimeters. The anti-slip texture is not limited to covering all solid parts 110; it can be set at appropriate locations to meet the anti-slip requirements.

[0050] In one embodiment, the polymer coating layer is made of at least one of polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polycarbonate, polyurethane, polyamide, polysulfone, and polyetheretherketone.

[0051] In this embodiment, the material of the polymer coating layer is limited to several common medical polymer materials, mainly including polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, polycarbonate, polyurethane, polyamide, polysulfone and polyetheretherketone, etc.

[0052] In one embodiment, the material of the solid portion 110 is stainless steel.

[0053] In this embodiment, the material of the solid part 110 is stainless steel, ensuring hygiene. Medical-grade stainless steel typically refers to stainless steel made with 18% chromium or 10% nickel to make it more durable and corrosion-resistant. Medical-grade stainless steel is also known as 18-10 stainless steel and has superior performance characteristics.

[0054] In one embodiment, the skeleton diameter is 1.0 to 2.0 mm.

[0055] In this embodiment, the diameter of the skeleton is limited. If the skeleton diameter is too small, the rigidity provided will be insufficient, while if the diameter is too large, the size of the stretching end 200 will increase, which is detrimental to the use process, especially when a polymer coating layer is provided on the outer periphery. Therefore, depending on the actual situation, the diameter of the skeleton is preferably set in the range of 1.0 to 2.0 mm.

[0056] In one embodiment, the thickness of the polymer coating layer is 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm.

[0057] In this embodiment, if the thickness of the polymer coating layer is too small, the provided flexibility is insufficient; if the thickness of the polymer coating layer is too large, the size of the stretch end 200 increases. Therefore, the thickness of the polymer coating layer is preferably between 0.1 mm and 0.5 mm.

[0058] In summary, the eyelid support provided by this utility model has a fixing groove 120 on the solid part 110 for fixing the stretching end 200. The fixing groove 120 is arranged along the length direction of the solid part 110 and includes a narrow width section 121 and a wide width section 122. A post hole 123 is provided on one end face of the solid part 110 along the length direction. The stretching end 200 can achieve various shapes of skeletons through the layout structure design and adjustment of the metal wire, thereby fulfilling the functions of various scenarios. The polymer coating layer protects the skeleton, and due to the difference in specific heat and thermal conductivity, the presence of the polymer coating layer makes the stretching end 200 have a better contact experience with the skin. The fixing head 300 is set at the free end of the insertion section 210, and the fixing head 300 and the post hole 123 form an elastic lock. Moreover, the stretching end 200 can be made into a disposable product, thereby improving the hygiene level.
