Detailed Implementation

[0040] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which constitute a part of this application and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0041] Example 1

[0042] A specific embodiment of this utility model discloses a fixation device for axial imaging examination of the knee joint, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the device includes a thigh fixation component 1, a support plate 2, a base plate component 3, a lower leg fixation component 4, and a weight-bearing limiting component 5. The thigh fixation component 1 is connected to the base plate component 3 via the support plate 2. The lower leg fixation component 4 is movably connected to the thigh fixation component 1. The weight-bearing limiting component 5 is connected to the lower leg fixation component 4. The weight-bearing limiting component 5 can place heavy objects to keep the quadriceps muscle in a tense state, thereby enabling the comparison of the patellar position of the quadriceps muscle in a relaxed state and a tense state through axial imaging of the knee joint.

[0043] Preferably, the support plate 2 is configured as a liftable structure, such as by using an electric cylinder to control the lifting of the support plate 2, so that the height of the support plate 2 can be adjusted according to the model of different instruments.

[0044] The thigh fixation assembly 1 includes a thigh support plate 11, a thigh fixation plate 12, and a thigh fixation strap 13. The thigh support plate 11 is connected to the support plate 2, the thigh fixation plate 12 is connected to the thigh support plate 11, and the thigh fixation strap 13 is disposed on the thigh fixation plate 12. The thigh fixation strap 13 can fix the patient's thigh relative to the thigh fixation plate 12.

[0045] For example, the thigh restraint strap 13 is a strap or Velcro.

[0046] Preferably, the thigh fixation strap 13 is made of non-woven fabric, nylon or other materials, so that the thigh fixation strap 13 has the characteristics of being comfortable, breathable and not easily deformed.

[0047] The base plate assembly 3 includes a base plate 31 and an angle adjustment component 32. The base plate 31 is connected to the thigh support plate 11 through the support plate 2. The base plate 31 can be fixed to the ground by fixing bolts and other fixing connectors. An angle adjustment component 32 is provided on the base plate 31. The angle adjustment component 32 is connected to the calf fixing assembly 4 and is used to adjust the angle between the calf fixing assembly 4 and the thigh support plate 11.

[0048] Preferably, a signal receiver is provided on the angle adjustment component 32, so that medical staff can control the movement of the angle adjustment component 32 via a computer or remote control.

[0049] For example, the angle adjustment component 32 is an electric cylinder, which extends and retracts to adjust the angle between the lower leg fixing component 4 and the thigh support plate 11. Electric cylinders are prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0050] Preferably, the angle adjustment range between the lower leg fixing component 4 and the thigh support plate 11 is 60°~180°.

[0051] like Figures 1-4 As shown, the lower leg fixation assembly 4 includes an inner lower leg fixation plate 41, an outer lower leg fixation plate 42, and a lower leg fixation strap 43. The inner lower leg fixation plate 41 is movably connected to the thigh support plate 11. An adjustment groove 423 is provided on the outer lower leg fixation plate 42. An angle adjustment member 32 passes through the adjustment groove 423 and is connected to the inner lower leg fixation plate 41. The angle of the lower leg fixation assembly 4 is adjusted by the angle adjustment member 32. The outer lower leg fixation plate 42 has a hollow structure. The inner lower leg fixation plate 41 is placed in the cavity of the outer lower leg fixation plate 42. The lower leg fixation strap 43 is placed on the outer lower leg fixation plate 42. The outer lower leg fixation plate 42 can move along the inner lower leg fixation plate 41, thereby adjusting the length of the lower leg fixation assembly 4 according to the patient's height, and fixing the patient's lower leg by the lower leg fixation strap 43.

[0052] For example, the calf fixation strap 43 is a strap or Velcro.

[0053] Preferably, the calf fixation strap 43 is made of non-woven fabric, nylon or other materials, so that the calf fixation strap 43 has the characteristics of being comfortable, breathable and not easily deformed.

[0054] A fixing head 411 and a first spring 412 are provided on the inner plate 41 for fixing the lower leg. The fixing head 411 is connected to the inner plate 41 for fixing the lower leg through the first spring 412. A fixing hole 421 is provided on the outer plate 42 for fixing the lower leg. The shape of the fixing hole 421 matches the fixing head 411.

[0055] When it is necessary to adjust the calf fixing assembly 4, press the fixing head 411 to compress the first spring 412 and retract it into the inner calf fixing plate 41. Move the outer calf fixing plate 42 to keep the outer calf fixing plate 42 compressing the fixing head 411. When the fixing hole 421 is above the fixing head 411, the first spring 412 resets and drives the fixing head 411 to extend out of the inner calf fixing plate 41 and pass through the fixing hole 421, thereby fixing the position of the outer calf fixing plate 42.

[0056] like Figure 5 As shown, a connecting rod 413 is also provided on the inner plate 41 for fixing the lower leg, and a moving groove 422 is also provided on the outer plate 42 for fixing the lower leg. When adjusting the outer plate 42 for fixing the lower leg, the connecting rod 413 always remains through the moving groove 422, thereby preventing the connecting rod 413 from restricting the displacement of the outer plate 42 for fixing the lower leg.

[0057] like Figure 1 and Figures 5-6 As shown, the weight-bearing limiting component 5 includes an adjustment knob 51, an adjustment rod 52, and a limiting rod 53. One end of the adjustment rod 52 is connected to the connecting rod 413 via the adjustment knob 51, and the other end is connected to the limiting rod 53. The limiting rod 53 can apply pressure to the patient's lower leg. The adjustment knob 51 passes through the adjustment rod 52 and is threadedly connected to the connecting rod 413. The adjustment knob 51 is used to fix the included angle between the adjustment rod 52 and the connecting rod 413.

[0058] Preferably, a weight can be placed at the end of the limiting rod 53 and fixed by components such as buckles and clasps, thereby increasing the pressure of the limiting rod 53 on the patient's leg and keeping the quadriceps muscle in a state of tension.

[0059] Preferably, a sponge pad is provided on the limiting rod 53, which can improve the comfort of the lower leg when the lower leg pushes the limiting rod 53 with force and prevent the lower leg from hitting the limiting rod 53 and causing injury.

[0060] like Figures 6-8 As shown, the adjustment knob 51 includes a rotating head 511 and an inner connecting shaft 512. The rotating head 511 has a hollow structure, and the inner connecting shaft 512 is disposed inside the rotating head 511. The inner connecting shaft 512 is connected to the rotating head 511 through a bearing seat, and the rotating head 511 has a thread on its outer side. The inner connecting shaft 512 includes an inner connecting head 5121, a second spring 5122, a rotating shaft section 5123, and a threaded connection section 5124. The inner connecting head 5121 is connected to the rotating head 511 through the bearing seat, thereby avoiding the influence of adjusting the rotating head 511 on the inner connecting shaft 512. The rotating shaft section 5123 is connected to the inner connecting head 5121 through the second spring 5122. The extension and retraction properties of the second spring 5122 allow the rotating head 511 to move closer to or further away from the rotating shaft section 5123 when the rotating shaft section 5123 is fixed. The threaded connection section 5124 is connected to the rotating shaft section 5123.

[0061] like Figure 6 As shown, the connecting rod 413 is provided with an adjusting groove 4131 and a limiting block 4132. The limiting block 4132 is located within the adjusting groove 4131 and is used to restrict the movement of the adjusting rod 52, thereby fixing the maximum angle between the adjusting rod 52 and the lower leg fixing outer plate 42. The adjusting rod 52 is provided with an adjusting connecting section 521, which is located within the adjusting groove 4131. The adjusting connecting section 521 is provided with a threaded hole. The diameter of the rotating shaft section 5123 is smaller than the diameter of the threaded hole. The threaded connecting section 5124 passes through the threaded hole on the adjusting connecting section 521 and is threadedly connected to the connecting rod 413, so that the rotating shaft section 5123 is located within the adjusting groove 4131. The adjusting connecting section 521 can rotate within the adjusting groove 4131 around the rotating shaft section 5123, thereby changing the angle between the adjusting rod 52 and the connecting rod 413, and thus changing the angle between the limiting rod 53 and the lower leg fixing outer plate 42. The rotating head 511 engages with the threaded hole on the adjusting connecting section 521. Adjusting the rotating head 511 allows it to be threadedly connected to the adjusting rod 52 through the threaded hole on the adjusting connecting section 521, thereby fixing the position of the adjusting rod 52. The limiting block 4132 restricts the rotation of the adjusting rod 52, thereby fixing the knee flexion angle when the patient raises the limiting rod 53. For example, the maximum included angle between the limiting rod 53 and the lower leg fixation outer plate 42 is 60°.

[0062] Preferably, the connecting rod 413 is also provided with an angle scale, which is used to measure the included angle between the adjusting rod 52 and the connecting rod 413.

[0063] Taking a patient's lower leg bent at 30° as an example, when it is necessary to examine the patient's knee joint axis, first take an X-ray of the knee with the quadriceps muscle in a relaxed state. Adjust the rotating head 511 to disengage it from the adjusting rod 52, thereby releasing the fixation of the adjusting rod 52. Adjust the angle between the limiting rod 53 and the lower leg fixing outer plate 42 so that the patient's lower leg can be fixed by the lower leg fixing strap 43. Adjust the rotating head 511 to fix the adjusting rod 52. The patient's thigh and lower leg are fixed by the thigh fixation strap 13 and the lower leg fixation strap 43, so that the patient's thigh is close to the thigh support plate 11 and the lower leg is close to the lower leg fixation outer plate 42. The angle between the lower leg fixation outer plate 42 and the thigh support plate 11 is adjusted by the angle adjustment component 32 so that the patient's lower leg is bent at 30°. At this time, the angle between the lower leg fixation outer plate 42 and the thigh support plate 11 is 120°. The patient's knee is then examined by imaging to obtain the image when the patient's lower leg is bent at 30° and the patient's quadriceps muscle is in a relaxed state.

[0064] Subsequently, an X-ray was taken of the patient's knee when the quadriceps femoris muscle was under tension. The angle between the lower leg fixation plate 42 and the thigh support plate 11 was adjusted using the angle adjustment component 32 to achieve an angle of 90 degrees. The lower leg fixation strap 43 was then released from the patient's lower leg. Appropriate weight was added to both ends of the limiting rod 53. The rotating head 511 was adjusted to release the fixation on the adjusting rod 52. The limiting rod 53 was slowly adjusted until it came into contact with the patient's lower leg, causing the patient's lower leg to rise. The bending angle of the patient's lower leg was read using the angle scale until the patient's lower leg bent at 30°. An imaging examination of the patient's knee was then performed to obtain the X-ray results when the patient's lower leg was bent at 30° and the quadriceps femoris muscle was under tension.

[0065] Example 2

[0066] A specific embodiment of this utility model discloses a fixation device for axial imaging examination of the knee joint, such as... Figures 9-10 As shown, the difference from Embodiment 1 is that a first sliding groove 111 is provided on the thigh support plate 11, and a first slider 121 is provided on the thigh fixation plate 12. The first slider 121 cooperates with the first sliding groove 111, so that the first slider 121 can move along the first sliding groove 111, thereby adjusting the position of the thigh fixation plate 12 according to the patient's body shape. A second sliding groove 424 is provided on the calf fixation outer plate 42, and a second slider 431 is also provided on the calf fixation strap 43. The second slider 431 cooperates with the second sliding groove 424, so that the second slider 431 can move along the second sliding groove 424, thereby adjusting the position of the calf fixation strap 43 according to the patient's body shape.

[0067] like Figure 9 As shown, a fixing pin 122 is also provided on the thigh fixing plate 12, and a pin hole 1111 is provided in the first sliding groove 111. The fixing pin 122 cooperates with the pin hole 1111. The fixing pin 122 passes through the thigh fixing plate 12 and the first slider 121 and enters the pin hole 1111, thereby fixing the position of the thigh fixing plate 12.

[0068] like Figures 10-11 As shown, a bolt 432 is provided on the second slider 431. The bolt 432 enters the slider 431. A gear 433 is provided at the bottom of the bolt 432. The bolt 432 and the gear 433 are fixedly connected. The second slider 431 is also provided with a rack 434. The rack 434 cooperates with the gear 433. The rack 434 passes through the side of the second slider 431 near the inner wall of the second slide groove 424 and contacts the second slider 431. By rotating the bolt 432, the gear 433 can be driven to rotate, so that the rack 434 moves towards the second slide groove 424 as the gear 433 rotates. The rack 434 presses tightly against the second slide groove 424 to fix the position of the second slider 431.

[0069] Preferably, rubber is provided on the side of the rack 434 that contacts the second groove 424.

[0070] Preferably, there are two racks 434, which are arranged on both sides of the gear 433, so that the gear 433 drives the racks 434 to press tightly against the inner walls of both sides of the second slide groove 424, thereby increasing the stability of the slider 431.

[0071] Compared with the prior art, the knee joint axial imaging fixation device of this utility model, by setting a weight-bearing limiting component 5, allows the patient to push the limiting rod 53 with the lower leg to put the quadriceps muscle in a tense state. By setting an adjustment knob 51, the angle between the limiting rod 53 and the lower leg fixation outer plate 42 can be changed and the position of the limiting rod 53 can be fixed. Thus, when the knee joint is fixed at the same angle, the quadriceps muscle can be in a tense state and a relaxed state respectively without changing the angle, and the position of the patella can be taken into axial radiographs. By setting a lower leg fixation outer plate 42 and a lower leg fixation inner plate 41, the length of the lower leg fixation component 4 can be increased by moving the lower leg fixation outer plate 42 along the lower leg fixation inner plate 41, which is convenient for adjustment according to the patient's height. By setting an adjustment knob 51, an adjustment rod 52, a limiting rod 53, and a connecting rod 413, the included angle between the limiting rod 53 and the lower leg fixation outer plate 42 can be adjusted and fixed. The rotation of the adjustment rod 52 is restricted by the limiting block 4132 to prevent the patient's lower leg from bending too much when pushing the limiting rod 53, which could cause injury to the patient. By setting a first slider 121 and a fixing pin 122 that can move along the first slide groove 111 on the thigh fixation plate 12, and a second slider 431 that can move along the second slide groove 424 on the lower leg fixation strap 43, as well as bolts 432, gears 433, and racks 434, the thigh fixation plate 12 and the lower leg fixation strap 43 can be adjusted according to the patient's body size, thereby increasing the fixation effect and the patient's comfort.

[0072] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
