AI Technical Summary
After a stroke, hemiplegic patients often have insufficient upper limb muscle strength and poor hand grip, making them prone to dropping dumbbells and getting injured when using dumbbell curl exercises. They need assistance from medical staff or family members during training, lacking independence and safety.
Design an upper limb strength training belt for hemiplegic patients, including a grip belt and a wrist belt, which are fixed to the wrist with Velcro, and have a weight-bearing belt and weight blocks to enable arm curl training, and ensure safety with adjustable pockets and a leak-proof cover.
Hemiplegic patients can independently complete upper limb strength training, reducing the risk of slippage and injury, improving safety and ease of operation, and reducing reliance on assistance from others.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical assistive devices technology, and in particular to a strength training belt for the upper limbs of hemiplegic patients. Background Technology
[0002] Upper limb function rehabilitation is crucial for hemiplegic patients after stroke. Rehabilitation training is currently the main way to recover from nerve damage in stroke patients. Hemiplegic patients with upper limb muscle strength of grade 3 or above need to undergo upper limb strength and endurance training. Most hemiplegic patients have poor hand gripping ability. In order to prevent accidents such as dropping and injuring themselves when using dumbbell curls, medical staff and family members need to assist in the training. Utility Model Content
[0003] This invention provides a strength training belt for the upper limbs of hemiplegic patients, which can assist hemiplegic patients in independently performing upper limb function exercises at home.
[0004] To solve the above problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: it includes a grip strength band and a wristband. The middle part of the grip strength band is connected to the wristband via a connecting strap. One end of the wristband has a hook-and-loop hook surface on the front, and the other end of the wristband has a Velcro velvet surface on the back that matches the hook-and-loop hook surface. The hook-and-loop hook surface is attached to the Velcro velvet surface to ensure that the wristband is fixedly tied to the wrist of the hemiplegic patient. The two ends of the grip strength band have weight-bearing straps with weight-bearing blocks. The hemiplegic patient can hold the grip strength band to perform arm flexion exercises to train upper limb strength.
[0005] A more specific technical solution than the above-mentioned technical solution is that the weight-bearing belt has multiple pockets, and the weight-bearing blocks are inserted into the pockets, so that the weight can be gradually increased according to the training progress of the hemiplegic patient.
[0006] Furthermore: the opening of the pocket is provided with a leak-proof flap, the outside of the pocket is provided with a leak-proof Velcro fleece surface, the leak-proof flap is provided with a leak-proof Velcro hook surface that is adapted to the leak-proof Velcro fleece surface, and the leak-proof flap is adhered to the pocket to prevent the load-bearing block from falling out.
[0007] Furthermore, the middle part of the grip band is connected to the wristband by two connecting straps.
[0008] Furthermore: the load-bearing block is an iron block.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art: When the wristband is tied to the wrist of a hemiplegic patient, even if the patient slips out of their hand during bicep curl exercises, it will not cause a crushing injury. It reduces the inability of hemiplegic patients to use dumbbells due to insufficient grip strength, thus addressing the deficiency in strength training. The wristband can be worn and used independently, reducing the number of operators required, and is characterized by ease of operation and high safety. Attached Figure Description
[0010] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model.
[0011] In the picture: 1. Grip strap; 2. Weighted strap; 3. Pocket; 4. Leak-proof lining; 5. Leak-proof Velcro fleece; 6. Leak-proof Velcro hook side; 7. Weight block; 8. Wrist strap; 9. Wrist strap Velcro hook side; 10. Connecting strap. Detailed Implementation
[0012] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples:
[0013] like Figure 1 The illustrated upper limb strength training belt for hemiplegic patients includes a grip band 1 and a wristband 8. The grip band 1 is connected to the wristband 8 in the middle via a connecting strap 10. One end of the wristband 8 has a hook-and-loop hook surface 9 on the front, and the other end of the wristband 8 has a Velcro velvet surface that matches the hook-and-loop hook surface 9 on the back. The hook-and-loop hook surface 9 is used to attach the wristband 8 to the Velcro velvet surface to ensure that it is fixedly tied to the wrist of the hemiplegic patient. The grip band 1 has weight-bearing straps 2 at both ends, and the weight-bearing straps 2 have weight-bearing blocks 7. The hemiplegic patient can hold the grip band 1 to perform arm flexion exercises to train upper limb strength. The weight-bearing belt 2 has multiple pockets 3, and the weight-bearing blocks 7 are inserted into the pockets 3. The weight can be gradually increased according to the training progress of the hemiplegic patient. The opening of the pocket 3 is equipped with a leak-proof cloth 4, and the outside of the pocket 3 is equipped with a leak-proof Velcro velvet surface 5. The leak-proof cloth 4 is equipped with a leak-proof Velcro hook surface 6 that matches the leak-proof Velcro velvet surface 5. The leak-proof cloth 4 is glued to the pocket 3 to prevent the weight-bearing blocks 7 from falling out. The middle part of the grip strength belt 1 is connected to the wrist belt 8 by two connecting straps 10. The weight-bearing blocks 7 are iron blocks.
[0014] Based on the intensity of upper limb strength training for hemiplegic patients, the required number of iron blocks are placed into the pocket 3 of the weighted belt 2, and then a leak-proof cloth 4 is attached to the pocket 3. When exercising the right hand, the right hand holds the grip strap 1 and places the wrist on the wrist strap 8, while the left hand attaches the hook side 9 of the wrist strap to the Velcro surface of the wrist strap. The bending and lifting movements can then be started to train the right hand strength. The operation for training the left hand strength is the same, ensuring the safety of hemiplegic patients when training alone.
