[0024] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] Example 1
[0026] Please see Figures 1-2 As shown, this utility model is a lower limb exercise device for hemodialysis patients, including a seat board 1; specifically, a support frame is fixedly arranged at the bottom of the seat board 1 to support the seat board 1; during training, the patient can sit on the seat board 1.
[0027] Two sets of training mechanisms 2 for training the patient's lower legs are symmetrically arranged on one side of the seat board 1;
[0028] The training mechanism 2 includes a vertically arranged limiting frame 201, the bottom of which is fixed to the support frame at the bottom of the seat plate 1;
[0029] A support shaft 203 is rotatably mounted on the top of the limiting frame 201. One end of the support shaft 203 is fixed to the output end of the servo motor 3 fixed on the outside of the limiting frame 201, and the other end is fixed to the training frame 202. Several sets of support rollers 4 are arranged at intervals on one side of the training frame 202. Several sets of massage protrusions 401 are evenly arranged on the support rollers 4. Each support roller 4 is connected to a drive module that drives it to reciprocate along the length of the training frame 202.
[0030] It can be explained that when using the lower limb exercise device in this embodiment, the patient places both lower legs on the support rollers 4 of the training mechanism 2, and starts the servo motor 3 to drive the support shaft 203 to rotate back and forth. The support shaft 203 synchronously drives the training frame 202 to swing back and forth with an amplitude between 10 and 90 degrees. The swinging motion achieves the effect of training the patient's lower leg joints. During the swinging process, the drive module drives each support roller 4 to move back and forth along the length of the training frame 202. Thus, the massage protrusions 401 on the surface of the support roller 4 massage and relax the muscles of the patient's lower legs. On the one hand, this can prevent the patient's lower legs from cramping, and on the other hand, it can prevent the patient's lower legs from becoming congested, achieving a relaxation effect and improving the training quality.
[0031] Example 2
[0032] Based on Embodiment 1, the support roller 4 is set on one side of the two training frames 202 that are close to each other. The end of the training frame 202 away from the support shaft 203 is also provided with a positioning module for positioning the patient's ankle. Specifically, in order to prevent the patient's lower leg from falling off the support roller 4 during training, this embodiment uses the positioning module to fix the patient's ankle before training, thereby improving the stability during training.
[0033] As a further embodiment, the positioning module includes a positioning seat 402 fixedly arranged on the training frame 202. The positioning seat 402 has an arc-shaped groove 403 for embedding into the patient's ankle. A tightening strap 404 is fixedly arranged on the positioning seat 402. Specifically, when positioning the patient's ankle, the tightening strap 404 is first pulled to embed the patient's ankle into the arc-shaped groove 403. Under the elastic force of the tightening strap 404, the ankle is fixed in the arc-shaped groove 403.
[0034] Furthermore, to improve the comfort of the patient's ankle, in this embodiment, a cushioning pad is adhered in the arc-shaped groove 403; specifically, the cushioning pad can be made of silicone or rubber.
[0035] In this embodiment, each support roller 4 is rotatably arranged on one side of the positioning frame 405. The training frame 202 has a guide groove 204 along its length direction, and a guide shaft 205 fixed to the positioning frame 405 is slidably embedded in the guide groove 204. It can be explained that when the drive module drives each support roller 4 to move, it first drives the guide shaft 205 to slide along the guide groove 204. During the sliding process of the guide shaft 205, the positioning frame 405 can drive each support roller 4 to move synchronously. In this embodiment, the guide groove 204 can not only limit the guide shaft 205, but also guide its movement, resulting in higher stability.
[0036] The drive module includes a gear 301 fixedly mounted on the support shaft 203, and a guide shaft 205 with one end away from the positioning frame 405 fixed to the drive frame 207. A rack 302 that meshes with the gear 301 is fixedly mounted at the end of the drive frame 207. It can be explained that when the servo motor 3 drives the support shaft 203 to rotate, the support shaft 203 synchronously drives the gear 301 to rotate. The gear 301 can drive the guide shaft 205 to slide in the guide groove 204 through the drive frame 207 by meshing with the rack 302.
[0037] Furthermore, two sets of clamping plates 206 are fixedly arranged on the guide shaft 205, and the two sets of clamping plates 206 are located on both sides of the training rack 202; specifically, in this embodiment, the guide shaft 205 is limited by the arrangement of clamping plates 206 to prevent the guide shaft 205 from detaching from the guide groove 204.
[0038] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: First, pull the tightening strap 404 to embed the patient's ankle into the arc-shaped groove 403. Under the elastic force of the tightening strap 404, the ankle is fixed in the arc-shaped groove 403. Start the servo motor 3 to drive the support shaft 203 to rotate back and forth. The support shaft 203 synchronously drives the training frame 202 to swing back and forth. The swing amplitude is between 10-90 degrees. When the servo motor 3 drives the support shaft 203 to rotate, the support shaft 203 synchronously drives the gear 301 to rotate. The gear 301 can drive the guide shaft 205 to slide in the guide groove 204 through the drive frame 207 by meshing with the rack 302. During the sliding process of the guide shaft 205, the positioning frame 405 can drive each support roller 4 to move synchronously to massage the patient's leg muscles.
