[0021] The lateral traction assembly 4 includes traction ring 41, traction rope 42 and two line tighteners 43, the traction ring 41 is arranged on the middle wearing ring 1 and is located in the middle of the area corresponding to back of this middle wearing ring 1, one of the line tighteners 43 is arranged on the upper wearing ring 1, the other line tightener 43 is arranged on the lower wearing ring 1, and the two line tighteners 43 are located on the side of the area corresponding to back of the wearing ring 1, the traction rope 42 is of inelastic material, the traction rope 42 is threaded in the traction ring 41, and one end of the traction rope 42 is arranged on one of the line tighteners 43, and the other end is arranged on the other line tightener 43.In the utility model, the traction ring 41 and the two line tighteners 43 are three-point distribution not on the same straight line, a triangular area can be formed between the traction ring 41 and the two line tighteners 43, and the position of the traction ring 41 is the vertex of the triangular area.

[0022] The wearable scoliosis orthotic brace provided by this utility model utilizes a support rod 2 to connect adjacent wearing rings 1. During use, on the one hand, the distance between adjacent wearing rings 1 can be adjusted according to the patient's height and the position of the scoliosis, ensuring each wearing ring 1 is accurately placed at the target position. On the other hand, the extension length of the support rod 2 can be adjusted according to the specific degree of scoliosis, providing vertical support in the direction of the patient's height to adapt to the current degree of scoliosis. Simultaneously, based on the lateral traction component 4, the traction rope 42 is tightened through two tensioners 43, generating lateral tension on the middle wearing ring 1, thereby providing lateral traction to the central part of the scoliosis area. The lateral traction force combined with the vertical support force of the support rod 2 jointly assists in correcting the scoliosis area, thus achieving better corrective effect and greater flexibility in use. The length of the support rod 2 and the tightening degree of the traction rope 42 can be adjusted to meet the patient's corrective needs at different stages of correction.

[0023] In one embodiment of this invention, the lateral traction component 4 is a single unit. Mounting portions are provided on both sides of the area corresponding to the back region of the upper and lower wearing rings 1. Two tensioners 43 are detachably mounted on one of the mounting portions. This detachable mounting can be secured with metal clips or other detachable fixing methods. In this embodiment, during use, the two tensioners 43 are mounted on the mounting portion on the side of the direction of traction required for lateral straightening traction, i.e., on the mounting portion opposite to the direction of lateral curvature, depending on the direction of the patient's spinal curvature. For example, when the spine curves to the left, the two tensioners 43 are mounted on the mounting portion on the right side of the area corresponding to the back region of the wearing ring 1.

The tightener 43 has good self-locking property due to the worm wheel 433 and the worm 434 structure, and the current state can be effectively maintained after the rotation of the worm 434 is stopped. The rotating mode of the worm 434 is manual rotation. In one arrangement mode of the utility model, the support 431 is directly arranged on the wearing ring 1. In another arrangement mode of the utility model, the tightener 43 further comprises a shell, and the support 431 and the rotating shaft 432, the worm wheel 433 and the worm 434 are all arranged inside the shell, one side of the shell is provided with a through hole through which the traction line passes, and the rod body at the top of the worm 434 penetrates through the shell and extends to the outside of the shell, and a knob can be arranged at the end of the rod body to facilitate the rotation of the worm 434.

[0026] The two ends of the support rod 2 are connected to the two adjacent wearing rings 1 corresponding to the two ends through hinged members, so that a certain twistable angle is provided for the two ends of the support rod 2 when the support rod 2 is extended and retracted.
