Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the representation of this disclosure, "a set" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0030] For the purpose of clarity, devices unrelated to the description are omitted, and the same or similar components throughout the specification are given the same reference numerals.

[0031] Throughout this specification, when it is said that a device is "connected" to another device, this includes not only "direct connection" but also "indirect connection" by placing other components in between. Furthermore, when it is said that a device "comprises" a certain constituent element, unless otherwise stated otherwise, this does not exclude other constituent elements, but rather implies that other constituent elements may be included.

[0032] While the terms first, second, etc., are used in some examples herein to refer to various elements, these elements should not be limited by these terms. These terms are used only to distinguish one element from another. For example, first interface and second interface, etc., are used. Furthermore, as used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to also include the plural forms unless the context indicates otherwise. It should be further understood that the terms “comprising,” “including,” indicate the presence of the stated feature, step, operation, element, module, item, kind, and / or group, but do not exclude the presence, occurrence, or addition of one or more other features, steps, operations, elements, modules, items, kinds, and / or groups.

[0035] In related technologies, leg supports used for patient leg rehabilitation training, especially those applied in bedside rehabilitation scenarios, involve the patient lying on the bed with their legs supported and tractioned by the leg support during operation. However, these leg supports only provide support; during the leg support's movement to traction the patient's legs, the legs can easily slip off the support, leading to hip abduction and other issues that hinder rehabilitation.

[0036] In view of this, the present disclosure provides a leg support for rehabilitation training, wherein when the leg support supports the patient's leg and tractions the patient's leg movement, the patient's leg is well fixed on the leg support and it is difficult for the leg to detach from the leg support.

[0037] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the leg support structure according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 This is a cross-sectional view of the leg rest according to an embodiment of this disclosure. (See also...) Figure 1 and Figure 2 The leg support 100 disclosed herein for rehabilitation training includes a support member 10. The support member 10 forms a support space 101 for setting the leg.

[0038] Optionally, the support 10 is preferably a metal support, and the metal support is preferably made of a lightweight metal material, such as aluminum alloy. The lightweight metal material not only has good rigidity and can support the patient's legs well, but is also lightweight and does not cause much burden to the patient.

[0039] Optionally, the support member 10 includes a support portion 11 for supporting the patient's legs, and the support space 101 is formed above the support portion 11.

[0040] Optionally, the support member 10 further includes a first limiting part 12 and a second limiting part 13. The first limiting part 12 and the second limiting part 13 are spaced apart above the support member 11 and located on opposite sides of the support space 101.

[0041] Therefore, when the supporting part 11 supports the patient's leg, the first limiting part 12 and the second limiting part 13 can limit the left and right sides of the patient's leg, thereby preventing the patient's leg from everting and causing hip abduction.

[0042] Optionally, at least one of the first limiting portion 12 and the second limiting portion 13 has an arc-shaped transition portion between itself and the supporting portion 11, the arc-shaped transition portion being recessed toward the supporting space 101. Thus, when the patient's leg is supported by the supporting portion 11 and the patient's leg is located within the supporting space 101, the transition portion can conform to the patient's leg, which helps improve the patient's comfort.

[0043] Specifically, a first transition portion 14 is provided between the first limiting portion 12 and the supporting portion 11. The first transition portion 14 is arc-shaped and recessed toward the supporting space 101. A second transition portion 15 is provided between the second limiting portion 13 and the supporting portion 11. The second transition portion 15 is arc-shaped and recessed toward the supporting space 101.

[0044] Therefore, when the patient's leg is supported by the support part 11 and the patient's leg is limited by the first limiting part 12 and the second limiting part 13, the first transition part 14 and the second transition part 15 can fit against the left and right sides of the patient's leg respectively, which helps to improve the patient's comfort.

[0045] It is understood that the first limiting part 12 and the second limiting part 13 can also be directly connected to the supporting part 11. For example, the first limiting part 12 and the second limiting part 13 can be formed by extending vertically upward directly from the two side edges of the supporting part 11.

[0046] The restraint ring 20 covers the support member 10 to restrain the legs to the support member 10.

[0047] In other words, when the support member 10 supports the patient's leg, the restraint ring 20 covers the support member 10 and the support space 101, and covers the outer periphery of the supported leg, thereby restraining the patient's leg to the support member 10. This allows the supported leg to be firmly connected to the support member 10 during rehabilitation training activities, preventing the leg from detaching from the support member 10 and facilitating the smooth progress of the patient's rehabilitation training.

[0048] Optionally, the restraint ring 20 is positioned and connected to the support member 10. Therefore, relative movement between the restraint ring 20 and the support member 10 is difficult, thus ensuring that the relative state between the support member 10 and the restraint ring 20 remains as stable as possible during the movement of the leg support 100 to traction the patient's leg, making it difficult for the restraint ring 20 to move away from the support member 10.

[0049] Optionally, the restraint ring 20 is a restraint cloth ring, which is inexpensive and soft, thus helping to ensure the patient's comfort.

[0050] Optionally, a cavity 2101 is formed within the restraint ring 20, and the support member 10 is disposed within the cavity 2101. Therefore, when the leg support 100 pulls the patient's leg to move, misalignment between the support member 10 and the restraint ring 20 is unlikely, thus ensuring that the restraint ring 20 can firmly bind the supported portion of the patient's leg to the support member 10.

[0051] Furthermore, since the restraint ring 20 covers the outside of the support member 10, when the support member 10 supports the patient's leg, the patient will not have direct contact with the rigid and hard support member 10, resulting in high comfort when the patient's leg is supported. Therefore, the leg support 100 of this embodiment not only provides good fixation for the patient's leg but also offers high comfort.

[0052] Optionally, the first end 21 of the restraint ring 20 is provided with a through hole 2102, and the second end 22 passes through the through hole 2102 and is fixedly overlapped or separated from the main body 23 of the restraint ring 20.

[0053] Therefore, before the patient uses the leg support 100, the second end 22 of the leg support 100 can remain protruding from the perforation 2102 and separated from the main body 23. At this time, the patient can insert their leg into the restraint ring 20 and let the leg be supported by the support member 10. Then, the patient can pull the second end 22 according to the condition of the leg to adjust the length of the part of the restraint ring 20 protruding from the perforation 2102 until it is adjusted to a suitable length, so that the tightness of the restraint ring 20 is suitable for the patient's leg. Finally, the second end 22 of the restraint ring 20 is fixedly overlapped with the main body 23 of the restraint ring 20, thereby realizing the restraint of the restraint ring 20 on the patient's leg. The restraint operation is convenient and helps to ensure a good restraint effect for patients with different leg thicknesses.

[0054] Optionally, a through-ring 211 is detachably provided at the first end 21, and the through-ring 211 has the through hole 2102 formed therein. Thus, the through-ring 211 is easy to detach and connect, and it is convenient to replace the damaged through-ring 211.

[0055] Optionally, the second end 22 of the restraint ring 20 is provided with a first hook and loop fastener 24. The main body 23 of the restraint ring 20 is provided with a second hook and loop fastener 25 for engaging with the first hook and loop fastener 24, and the second hook and loop fastener 25 extends circumferentially along the restraint ring 20. Thus, when the restraint ring 20 is used to restrain the patient's legs, the second end 22 of the restraint ring 20 can be fixedly overlapped with the main body 23 through the mutual adhesion between the first hook and loop fastener 24 and the second hook and loop fastener 25. Furthermore, since the second hook and loop fastener 25 extends circumferentially along the restraint ring 20, the second end 22 of the restraint ring 20 can be fixedly overlapped with different positions of the main body 23 when the first hook and loop fastener 24 is attached to different positions of the second hook and loop fastener 25, making the overlap operation of the restraint ring 20 convenient.

[0056] Of course, it is understood that the fixed overlapping or separation method between the main body part 23 and the second end 22 of the restraint ring 20 is not limited to this. For example, the main body part 23 and the second end 22 of the restraint member 20 can also be fixed overlapping or separated by snaps or other means.

[0057] Optionally, the inner peripheral wall of the restraint ring 20 is provided with a flexible pad 26. Thus, when the patient's leg is located within and restrained by the restraint ring 20, the flexible pad 26 can fill the gap between the patient's leg and the inner wall of the restraint ring 20, ensuring a close fit and fixation of the patient's leg when restrained. Simultaneously, the flexible material also ensures comfort when the patient's leg is restrained.

[0058] Optionally, the flexible pad 26 is positioned and connected to the restraint ring 20. Thus, during the movement of the leg support 100 to traction the patient's leg, the flexible pad 26 is unlikely to move relative to the restraint ring 20, ensuring a relatively stable relationship between the flexible pad 26 and the restraint ring 20.

[0059] Optionally, the flexible pad 26 is disposed around the outer periphery of the support space 101. Thus, when the support member 10 supports the leg, the flexible pad 26 can wrap around the outer periphery of the leg, thereby further improving the patient's comfort when the leg is supported.

[0060] Optionally, the flexible pad 26 can be a sponge or latex. The sponge or latex has good resilience, softness, and breathability, which can provide comfortable support for the patient's legs and improve the patient's comfort.

[0061] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the leg support in its working state according to an embodiment of this disclosure. (See also...) Figure 2 and Figure 3 The outer wall of the restraint ring 20 is provided with a suspension rope fixing structure 27. Thus, when the leg support 100 is in use, the suspension rope 800 can be connected to the suspension rope fixing structure 27, thereby suspending the leg support 100. This reduces the weight when the leg support 100 is driven by external force to move and thus pull the leg, making it easier for external force to drive the leg support 100 to pull the patient's leg.

[0062] Optionally, the rope fixing structure 27 is provided with a rope fixing hole 2701, thereby the rope 800 can be fixed in the rope fixing hole 2701 to fix the rope 800 on the rope fixing structure 27.

[0063] See Figure 1 and Figure 3 This disclosure also provides an apparatus for rehabilitation training, including an apparatus body 900 and a leg support 100 for rehabilitation training as described above, the leg support 100 being movably connected to the apparatus body 900.

[0064] Therefore, when the user's leg is supported by the leg support 100, the user's leg can move accordingly under the traction of the leg support 100, thereby achieving the effect of rehabilitation training for the user's leg. Of course, when the user's body has recovered to a certain extent, the user can also actively drive the leg support 100 to move, thereby actively carrying out rehabilitation training.

[0065] Optionally, the leg support 100 is rotatably mounted on the device body 900. For example, the leg support 100 is rotatably mounted on the device body 900. Thus, the user can rotate the leg support 100, causing the user's leg to perform circular motions with the rotation of the leg support 100, achieving the effect of circular training for the user's leg and benefiting the patient's leg rehabilitation.

[0066] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this disclosure and are not intended to limit this disclosure. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this disclosure. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this disclosure should still be covered by the protection scope of this disclosure.
