[0019] 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.

[0020] Example

[0021] Please see Figures 1-4The figure shows a hallux valgus corrector, which includes a toe fixing part 2 fixed to the toes, a foot fixing part 1 fixed to the sole of the foot, and an adjustment fixing part 3 connected to the foot fixing part 1 and extending towards the lower leg. It also includes a pull rope adjustment assembly 31, which is installed on the adjustment fixing part 3, and the pull rope 311 of the pull rope adjustment assembly 31 passes through the foot fixing part 1 and is connected to the toe fixing part 2.

[0022] In this embodiment, the toe fixing part 2 includes an adjusting frame 21 and a toe fixing strap. The toe fixing strap includes a horizontal strap 22 and a front strap 23. The ends of the horizontal strap 22 are connected to both sides of the adjusting frame 21, and one end of the front strap 23 is connected to the front end of the adjusting frame 21, and the other end is connected to the middle of the horizontal strap 22. The foot fixing part 1 includes a foot fixing frame 11 and a foot fixing strap 12. The adjusting and fixing part 3 includes a fixing frame 32 and a rear fixing strap 33. The fixing frame 32 is generally L-shaped or has an upwardly curved arc structure. One end of the fixing frame 32 is movably connected to the foot fixing part 1 by a pin 4, bolt, or rivet.

[0023] In this embodiment, the pull rope adjustment component 31 is a rotating buckle. The rotating buckle is the same as the adjustment mechanism in the background art and belongs to the prior art. Its specific structure will not be described in detail here. In this embodiment, a mounting position for the rotating buckle is provided on the foot fixing frame 11. The rotating buckle is fixed or snapped into the mounting position. The knob is fixedly installed on the upper end of the adjustment fixing part. The pull rope extends from the rotating buckle, passes through the foot fixing part 1, the toe fixing part 2, and the foot fixing part 1 in sequence, and then returns to the knob. Guide sleeves 6 for the pull rope 311 to be wound are provided on both the foot fixing part 1 and the toe fixing part 2.

[0024] In this embodiment, the toe fixing part 2 and the foot fixing part 1 are connected only by a pull rope 311. Traditional orthotics require these two parts to be connected by a pin, but the joints are made of hard plastic, which is uncomfortable and cannot be worn with shoes. After much thought and continuous research and development, the inventors discovered that since the toes are integrated with the foot, those complex connection structures are unnecessary. The toe fixing part 2 and the foot fixing part 1 can be directly connected by the pull rope 311 to achieve the purpose of adjusting toe eversion. Its structure is simpler and can be worn with shoes.

[0025] In this embodiment, the adjusting and fixing part 3 is provided with a cover 5. The cover 5 is fastened to the fixing frame 32 of the adjusting and fixing part 3. A space is formed between the cover 5 and the adjusting and fixing part for the pull rope to pass through and move. This space is formed by providing a protrusion on the cover 5 that extends to one side of the adjusting and fixing part or by providing a protrusion 34 on the adjusting and fixing part 3 that extends to one side of the cover.

[0026] In this embodiment, the cover 5 is provided with a protruding plate 51 extending to one side of the adjustment and fixing part. The protruding plate 51 is provided with a buckle 52. The corresponding fixing bracket 32 ​​of the adjustment and fixing part is provided with a slot 321 for the protruding plate 51 to be inserted. After the protruding plate 51 is inserted into the slot 321, the buckle passes over the slot and latches with the other side of the slot.

[0027] In order to prevent the foot fixing part from cutting the skin when the pull rope 31 is retracted, this embodiment has an upward-curving part 111 at the front end of the foot fixing frame 11. The design of the curving part can reduce or avoid the situation where the skin is cut.
