Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to toe correction technical field, especially a toe correction device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Hallux valgus, also known as hallux bunion, is a complex anatomical deformity where the big toe deviates outward at the first metatarsophalangeal joint. This misalignment causes uneven stress on the joint, leading to inflammation and nerve irritation, resulting in pain. The pain is usually localized at the first metatarsophalangeal joint and may radiate to the instep or lower leg. The increased pressure and friction on the local tissues due to hallux valgus deformity can lead to poor blood circulation, tissue hypoxia, and collagen fiber deposition, causing skin thickening. The thickened skin often appears on the lateral side of the first metatarsophalangeal joint and instep, which may form a hard knot or callus.

[0003] To avoid these situations, it is necessary to correct the hallux valgus. Correction can be done surgically or by using a correction device to slowly adjust the hallux valgus. A limiting correction device is needed to fix the position of the hallux valgus so that it can be slowly adjusted to health.

The clamping type hallux corrector includes a correction sheet I and a correction sheet II. The correction sheet I and the correction sheet II are connected by a buckle. Compared with the prior art, the traditional rivet connection method is cancelled and a buckle connection method is adopted. Firstly, the overall thickness of the connection position of the correction sheet I and the correction sheet II is reduced, and the structure is compact. Secondly, the buckle connection method has a buffering effect when in use and under stress. However, the correction sheet I and the correction sheet II of the clamping type hallux corrector can only be adjusted in parallel direction, and the angle between the two correction sheets cannot be adjusted to adjust the correction force of the corrector.

[0005] Some existing hallux correction devices can adjust the horizontal angle between the two correction plates. A steel wire is arranged between the rotating shaft and the correction plate, and the angle of the correction plate is adjusted by pulling the steel wire. However, the exposed steel wire affects the appearance of the corrector, and the angle of the correction plate that can be adjusted by pulling the steel wire is limited, which cannot meet the wearing needs of all users.
