Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of neck brace technology, specifically to a novel neck brace. Background Technology

[0002] A cervical collar, also known as a cervical spine support or neck fixation device, is primarily used to support and stabilize the neck, reducing pressure on the neck muscles and cervical spine. Traditional cervical collars are typically used for neck injuries, cervical spondylosis, muscle strain, and cervical disc herniation, providing immobilization and protection of the cervical spine, reducing nerve wear, alleviating traumatic reactions in the intervertebral joints, and aiding in the reduction of tissue edema, consolidating therapeutic effects, and preventing recurrence. Nowadays, students and office workers often sit for long periods, which easily leads to fatigue and poor posture, such as excessive head-down posture and neck tilting. Because studying or working usually requires high concentration, these individuals often unconsciously maintain poor postures like head-down for extended periods. Therefore, cervical collars are now used to correct these poor postures. Common cervical collars include hard and soft types. Hard collars completely surround the neck, providing greater fixation and restriction, but are not adjustable and offer less comfort. Soft collars can be inflatable or made of elastic materials like foam, but they offer less support and are less effective in correcting posture. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0024] To facilitate understanding of this utility model by those skilled in the art, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0025] Reference Figures 1 to 5 This embodiment provides a novel neck brace, including a support frame 1 that contacts the chest and a support frame 2 that contacts the head. Both ends of the support frame 1 are connected to both ends of the support frame 2. Each end of the support frame 1 is equipped with a rotation adjustment mechanism 3, which is connected to the end of the support frame 2. The end of the support frame 2 and the end of the support frame 1 are rotatably connected, and the support frame 2 is connected to the rotation adjustment mechanism 3. The two rotation adjustment mechanisms 3 are symmetrically arranged.

[0026] The rotation adjustment mechanism 3 includes a rotating member 31 connected to the support frame 2, an elastic member 32 connected to the support frame 1, and a locking member 33 connected to the elastic member 32. The elastic member 32 pushes the locking member 33 to move toward the rotating member 31. The locking member 33 is provided with a plurality of teeth 34 on the side facing the rotating member 31. The outer wall of the rotating member 31 protrudes outward to form a locking part 35 that matches the teeth 34. The teeth 34 and the locking part 35 cooperate to lock the rotating member 31 in one direction.

[0027] With attachment Figure 2For example, the diagram shows a connection between one end of the support frame 2 and one end of the support frame 1. In this embodiment, the tips of the teeth 34 of the locking member 33 at this end are generally facing the counterclockwise direction of the rotating member 31. When the elastic member 32 pushes the locking member 33 to move towards the rotating member 31, the locking part 35 of the rotating member 31 is inserted between two adjacent teeth 34. At this time, the rotating member 31 is locked. In the initial state, the locking part 35 is connected to the first tooth groove of the locking member (i.e., the area between adjacent teeth 34). When the rotating member 31 rotates counterclockwise, the locking part 35 can push the teeth 34, causing the locking member to move away from the rotating member 31. At this time, the spring is compressed, and the rotating member 31 does not rotate. When the locking part 35 reaches the corresponding position of the second tooth groove, the locking member 33 moves towards the rotating member 31 under the action of the elastic member 32, so that the locking part 35 is inserted into the second tooth groove. At this time, the support frame 2 rotates a certain angle relative to the support frame 1, realizing the angle adjustment of the neck brace. Due to the directional design of the teeth 34, when the rotating member 31 needs to rotate clockwise, the locking part cannot push the locking member away. At this time, the rotating member 31 will be locked in the clockwise direction, so the support frame 2 will also be locked in the clockwise direction. In the use state, the chin of the human head applies pressure to the support frame 2, that is, applies force in the clockwise direction. At this time, it is in a locked state, which can support the human head. The above is a description of the operation of the rotation adjustment mechanism 3 at one end. The other end is symmetrical and the direction is opposite. In this embodiment, the side of the locking member 33 facing the rotating member 31 is an arc surface, and the distribution area of ​​the teeth 34 is approximately half the length of the arc surface. In specific implementation, the distribution area of ​​the teeth 34 can be adjusted according to the angle adjustment range. Therefore, based on the design of the teeth 34, the user can adjust it to a suitable angle in the movable direction during use, so as to flexibly meet the support angle requirements of different users.

[0028] Both ends of the support frame 1 are provided with receiving boxes 11. The bottom surface of the receiving box 11 is provided with a first connecting hole 12 for connecting the support frame 2. The rotation adjustment mechanism 3 is disposed inside the receiving box 11. The end of the support frame 2 is connected to the rotating member 31 through the first connecting hole 12. The opening of the receiving box 11 is provided with a box cover 13. The end of the support frame 2 and the rotating member 31 are fixedly connected, so that when the rotating member 31 rotates, it can drive the support frame 2 to rotate.

[0029] A connecting groove 14 is provided on one side of the receiving box 11. The locking member 33 is connected to the connecting groove 14. One end of the elastic member 32 is connected to the inner wall of the connecting groove 14, and the other end of the elastic member 32 is connected to the locking member 33. The connecting groove 14 not only accommodates the locking member but also serves as a guide. In addition, a limit structure is also provided on the side of the connecting groove 14 near the rotating member 31.

[0030] Both ends of the support frame 2 are provided with connecting seats 21, which are connected to the first connecting hole 12. The connecting seat 21 passes through the first connecting hole 12 and enters the interior of the receiving box 11. The connecting seat 21 is provided with a plug-in post 22, and the rotating component 31 is provided with a plug-in hole 36 that matches the plug-in post 22. The plug-in post 22 can play a positioning role. During the assembly process, after the plug-in post 22 is inserted into the plug-in hole 36, the rotating component 31 and the connecting seat 21 can be quickly locked with fasteners.

[0031] The locking member 33 is provided with an oblong hole 37, and the support frame 1 is provided with a guide post 15 that matches the oblong hole 37. The oblong hole 37 serves as a guide while also limiting the movement distance of the locking member 33.

[0032] The support frame 2 is provided with a support part 23, and a support pad 24 is provided on the support part 23. The support pad 24 is used to support the chin of the human head. The support frame 1 is provided with a support part 16, and a support pad 17 is provided on the support part 16, which contacts the chest of the human body. In addition, several cushioning parts can be provided on the side of the support pad 24 that contacts the human body and the side of the support pad 17 that contacts the human body. The cushioning parts are made of soft elastic materials, such as silicone or EVA, to enhance comfort during use.

[0033] In this embodiment, the support frame 2, the support part 23, and the support pad 24 are an integral structure, and the support frame 1, the support part 16, and the support pad 17 are an integral structure. Specifically, they can be integrally molded by injection molding.

[0034] The outer wall of the housing 11 is provided with a second connecting hole 18. In this embodiment, the second connecting hole 18 is an elongated hole, which can be used to connect straps during use. The connecting holes at both ends are respectively connected to two straps, and the two straps can be connected by Velcro, so as to facilitate wearing the neck brace on the neck of the human body.

[0035] In this embodiment, the support frame 1 is relatively long. When in use, the support frame 1 is first positioned downwards, then the entire neck brace is brought close to the body, so that the support frame 2 reaches below the chin. The strap is then connected from the back of the neck, allowing the neck brace to hang on the neck. Afterwards, the support frame 1 is held down, and the support frame 2 is rotated to adjust to a suitable angle (i.e., the chin and support pad 24 are in contact in a normal posture). When not in use, the support frame 1 and support frame 2 are rotated to the same position for storage.
