Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a medical rehabilitation shoulder support, and more particularly to a sleeve-type rehabilitation shoulder support. Background Technology

[0002] Medical rehabilitation shoulder supports are commonly used shoulder joint immobilization devices in clinical practice. They are mainly used for shoulder instability and shoulder dislocation (or subluxation) caused by shoulder joint injuries, upper limb paralysis resulting from cerebrovascular diseases, etc. Their function is to lift the arm upwards through fixation and traction, stabilizing the shoulder joint structure and preventing shoulder dislocation (or subluxation).

[0003] Existing medical rehabilitation shoulder supports mainly consist of an upper shoulder fixation strap and a lower upper arm fixation strap, connected by Velcro. This type of shoulder support has the following drawbacks in clinical application: To prevent the upper limb from pulling on the shoulder joint due to gravity, the upper arm fixation strap must be continuously tightened to prevent slippage. However, excessive tightening can easily cause poor blood circulation, exacerbating swelling and pain in the affected hand. Conversely, to ensure blood circulation in the upper limb, the upper arm strap may not be properly secured, and the tightening force may not be able to overcome the weight of the upper limb, leading to shoulder dislocation (or subluxation). Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sleeve-type rehabilitation shoulder support that is simple in structure, low in cost, improves the reliable fixation of the shoulder joint, is easy for patients to put on and take off, improves upper limb circulation, and prevents shoulder-hand syndrome.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved through the following technical measures: a sleeve-type rehabilitation shoulder support, characterized in that it includes a shoulder fixation component and a sleeve component. The shoulder fixation component includes a body that fits against the shoulder joint on one side of the human body. A strap extends from the rear side of the body. The free end of the strap is used to pass under the armpit on the other side of the human body and is detachably connected to the body. The sleeve component includes a sleeve part for wearing on the upper limb and a glove part for wearing on the palm. The lower end of the sleeve part is connected to the upper end of the glove part, and the upper end of the sleeve part is detachably connected to the body.

[0006] This invention achieves comprehensive and stable fixation of the humerus in the glenoid fossa by altering the fixed support force pattern of the upper limb, reducing brace displacement during rehabilitation training and daily activities. Simultaneously, it employs a comfortable wearing method to minimize repeated donning and doffing. Furthermore, it enhances sensory feedback in the affected upper limb of stroke patients, promotes blood circulation, and reduces the incidence of post-stroke shoulder-hand syndrome. This invention is simple in structure, low in cost, highly practical, and suitable for widespread promotion and use.

[0026] like Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model discloses a sleeve-type rehabilitation shoulder support, including a shoulder fixation component and a sleeve component. The shoulder fixation component includes a body 7 that conforms to the shoulder joint on one side of the body. A strap 1 extends from the rear side of the body 7, and the free end of the strap 1 is used to pass under the armpit on the other side of the body and detachably connect to the body 7. The sleeve component includes a sleeve portion 8 for wearing on the arm and a glove portion 6 for wearing on the palm. The lower end of the sleeve portion 8 is connected to the upper end of the glove portion 6, and the upper end of the sleeve portion 8 is detachably connected to the body 7.

[0027] To achieve a detachable connection between the main body 7 and the sleeve 8, a Velcro shoulder strap 9 is provided on the front, back, and outer sides of the main body 7. The upper end of the sleeve 8 has a corresponding ring-shaped fastener 2 for each Velcro shoulder strap 9. Each Velcro shoulder strap 9 can hang naturally along the shoulder joint, pass through its corresponding ring-shaped fastener 2, and then fold back to be attached to the main body 7 via Velcro. The three Velcro shoulder straps 9 can secure the shoulder fixation component and the sleeve component. The Velcro includes a hook side 3 and a loop side 4. The loop side 4 is located at the end of the Velcro shoulder strap 9, and the hook side 3 is located on the main body 7 and has a certain length. The loop side 4 is attached to different positions on the hook side 3 for easy adjustment. The Velcro can be adjusted according to the patient's condition to achieve a comfortable position.

[0028] To achieve a detachable connection between the free end of the strap 1 and the main body 7, a ring-shaped fixing buckle 2 is provided on the front side of the main body 7. The free end of the strap 1 passes through the ring-shaped fixing buckle 2 and is then folded back and attached to itself via Velcro to secure the shoulder fixation component. The Velcro includes a hook side 3 and a rough side 4. The rough side 4 is located at the end of the strap 1, and the hook side 3 is located on the strap 1 and has a certain length.
