[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Please see Figures 1 to 6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a rehabilitation nursing chair, including a nursing chair body 1, with a box 3 fixedly connected to the outer sides of the armrests 2 on both sides of the nursing chair body 1. The top of the box 3 is provided with an arm support plate 1 4 and an arm support plate 2 5. One end of the arm support plate 1 4 is rotatably connected to the top of the armrest 2, and the other end is rotatably connected to a connecting plate 6. The end of the connecting plate 6 away from the arm support plate 1 4 is rotatably connected to the end of the arm support plate 2 5. The bottom of the arm support plate 2 5 is fixedly connected with a traction rope 7. The end of the traction rope 7 away from the arm support plate 2 5 is provided with a force adjustment component. The end of the box 3 is fixedly connected with a fixed pulley 8, and the traction rope 7 slides at the axle of the fixed pulley 8.

[0025] The height of arm support plate 1 (4) and arm support plate 2 (5) can be set slightly lower than the shoulder. Arm support plate 1 (4), arm support plate 2 (5), and connecting plate 6 have a certain degree of rigidity and can be made of steel. They can provide some support for the arms and also provide some support when rotating the arms. When using the chair, the patient places both hands on arm support plate 1 (4) and arm support plate 2 (5) on the armrests 2 on both sides of the nursing chair body 1, and positions the elbow joints on the connecting plate 6. The traction force at the end of the traction rope 7 is adjusted by the force adjustment component. Then, the patient rotates the arm, which moves arm support plate 1 (4) and arm support plate 2 (5) accordingly, and at the same time, it rotates the connecting plate 6. The traction rope 7 slides at the axle of the fixed pulley 8, which can achieve the effect of stretching the arms. The resistance during the stretch can be adjusted according to the patient's condition, which can achieve the effect of exercising the arms.

[0026] Furthermore, the force adjustment component includes a slider 9 slidably connected inside the box 3, the slider 9 being fixedly connected to the end of the traction rope 7, a movable plate 10 being fixedly connected to the bottom of the slider 9, a groove 11 being constructed on the inner wall of the box 3, the movable plate 10 moving within the groove 11, and several counterweights 12 being detachably connected to the top of the slider 9.

[0027] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 The counterweight 12 can be connected to the top of the slider 9 by snap-fit. The mass of the counterweight 12 can be set to be unequal or equal, and the number can be set to any number. When in use, the corresponding counterweight 12 is placed on the top of the slider 9. When the arm is rotated, the traction rope 7 is driven to slide at the axle of the fixed pulley 8. The traction rope 7 drives the movable block to move in the slide groove 11, and drives the slider 9 and the counterweight 12 to move. This can bring a certain resistance to the arm rotation and play a role in exercising the arm.

[0028] Furthermore, a tension spring 13 is fixedly connected between the slider 9 and the end wall of the box 3.

[0029] Please see Figure 4 The tension spring 13 can play a certain role in buffering, making the entire rotation process slower, and also plays a certain auxiliary role in the process of resetting the slider 9.

[0030] Furthermore, a support rod 14 is fixedly connected to the end of the arm support plate 2 5 away from the arm support plate 1 4, and an airbag 15 is fixedly connected to the end of the support rod 14.

[0031] Please see Figure 6 The airbag 15 can be filled with a certain amount of gas. The air pressure inside the airbag 15 can be adjusted as needed. The height of the support rod 14 can be set to be adjustable. The height of the airbag 15 can be adjusted as needed to make it easier for the patient to hold the airbag 15.

[0032] Furthermore, five elastic cords 16 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the airbag 15, and finger sleeves 17 are fixedly connected to the ends of the elastic cords 16.

[0033] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 3 After the patient places their hand on the airbag 15, they put their five fingers into the finger sleeves 17, and then spread their fingers so that the elastic rope 16 is stretched, which can exercise all five fingers at the same time.

[0034] Furthermore, the position of the finger sleeve 17 is consistent with the position where the patient's fingers are placed.

[0035] Please see Figure 2 This makes it easier for the patient to put each of their five fingers into the finger sleeve 17.

[0036] Furthermore, the inner walls of the arm support plate 14 and the arm support plate 25 are fixedly connected with soft pads 18.

[0037] Please see Figure 2 The soft pad 18 can provide a better tactile feel, making patients feel more comfortable when using arm support plate 1 4 and arm support plate 2 5, reducing discomfort caused by prolonged use, increasing the friction between the arm and arm support plate 1 4 and arm support plate 2 5, preventing the arm from slipping, and improving overall stability.

[0038] Furthermore, the airbag 15 is located in the patient's palm.

[0039] Please see Figure 2 The airbag 15 is designed to be a convenient size for holding, and it provides soft support to increase the comfort of the palm.

[0040] Working principle: When using this rehabilitation nursing chair, the patient first places both hands on the armrests 2 on both sides of the chair body 1, on the arm support plates 4 and 5 respectively, with the elbow joint positioned on the connecting plate 6. Simultaneously, the patient's hands are placed on the airbags 15, and all five fingers are placed in their corresponding finger sleeves 17. Then, the corresponding counterweights 12 are installed on top of the sliders 9. When the patient extends their arms outward, the arm support plates 4 and 5 move accordingly, simultaneously rotating the connecting plate 6. During the arm extension, the traction ropes are activated. 7 slides at the fixed pulley 8, and the traction rope 7 drives the movable block to move in the slide groove 11, which in turn drives the slider 9 and the counterweight 12 to move, causing the tension spring 13 to be in a stretched state. When the patient retracts the arm, the arm support plate 1 4 and the arm support plate 2 5 move accordingly, and at the same time drive the connecting plate 6 to rotate. During the process of retracting the arm, the slider 9 moves in the box 3 under the rebound force of the tension spring 13, which drives the movable plate 10 to move in the slide groove 11. The traction rope 7 slides at the axle of the fixed pulley 8. In this way, the arm can be extended back and forth to play a certain exercise role.

[0041] The standard parts used in this embodiment can be purchased directly from the market, while the non-standard structural parts described in the specification and drawings can be processed without any doubt based on existing technical common sense. At the same time, the connection methods of each component adopt mature conventional methods in the existing technology, and the machinery, parts and equipment all adopt conventional models in the existing technology, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0042] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
