Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, specifically to a pediatric sputum expectoration aid device. Background Technology

[0002] As an innovative medical device, the back percussion device, based on its mechanical or pneumatic principles, effectively assists newborns, children, long-term bedridden patients, and postoperative patients in expelling sputum from their lungs through precisely controlled percussion force, significantly relieving breathing difficulties and preventing pulmonary complications. It is divided into two types: mechanical and pneumatic. The former achieves adjustable force and frequency through mechanical force, while the latter uses air pressure changes to generate uniform vibration, both ensuring the comfort and safety of percussion.

[0003] Currently, most back tapping devices require users to hold the device and tap the child's back. However, since most parents have difficulty controlling the force and number of taps, if the force is too weak or the tapping time is too short, the effect will be poor. If the force is too strong or the tapping time is too long, it will easily cause secondary injury to the child. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a pediatric sputum expectoration aid device to solve the technical problem that parents have difficulty accurately controlling the force and number of taps, which affects the sputum expectoration effect and is prone to causing secondary injury to children.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a pediatric sputum expectoration aid back tapping device, comprising a main body and a hand gripper, wherein a vibrator is provided on the top of the main body, a tapping groove is provided on the bottom of the main body, and a striped airbag is provided inside the tapping groove;

[0006] The bottom of the hand gripper is provided with a base, and a laser displacement sensor is provided on one side of the base. The hand gripper has a first mounting slot inside, and a control panel is provided inside the first mounting slot. A second mounting slot is provided at the bottom of the first mounting slot, and a display panel and an audible and visual alarm are provided inside the second mounting slot.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the buckle groove at the bottom of the main body is used to fasten to the child's back, which can fit closely to the child's back, ensure effective transmission of vibration energy, and increase comfort.

[0008] Furthermore, the vibrator is provided in two sets, and the two sets of vibrators are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the hand gripper, with three vibrators in each set.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the two sets of vibrators are symmetrically arranged, and each set has three vibration units. This configuration can ensure that the vibration energy is transmitted to the child's back more evenly and comprehensively.

[0010] Furthermore, the striped airbags are provided in a plurality of units, which are arranged in a linear array at equal intervals.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, several striped airbags are arranged in a linear array at equal intervals, so that the back strap can better fit the curve and contour of the child's back when it comes into contact with the child's back.

[0012] Furthermore, there are two main bodies, which are mirror images of each other along the central axis of the hand gripper.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the two main bodies are mirrored along the central axis of the hand gripper, making the entire back buckle more symmetrical and balanced in structure.

[0014] Furthermore, the top of the hand gripper is provided with a transparent top plate, and a cover plate is rotatably connected to one side of the transparent top plate via a pivot.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the transparent top panel design allows users to clearly observe the working status of the back buckle during use.

[0016] Furthermore, a protrusion is provided on one side of the cover plate, and a magnetic strip is provided on the bottom of the cover plate.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the bump provides users with an intuitive and easy-to-operate point of force for opening and closing the cover.

[0018] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0019] 1. This invention incorporates a vibrator, a striped airbag, and a laser displacement sensor. The vibration generated by the vibrator directly acts on the child's back, physically helping to loosen and expel phlegm. This mechanical vibration is more uniform and continuous than manual back tapping, effectively promoting phlegm flow and improving expectoration efficiency. The striped airbag ensures the back tapper fits snugly against the child's back, maintaining good contact even on backs with varying curvatures. The airbag's inflation function ensures that vibration energy is evenly distributed to all parts of the back, avoiding poor expectoration due to uneven contact. The laser displacement sensor enables real-time monitoring of the distance between the back tapper and the child's back. When the back tapper shifts position, it is immediately detected and triggers an audible and visual alarm, reminding the user to adjust the position of the back tapper promptly.

[0020] 2. By setting a transparent top plate and a cover plate, the transparent top plate allows users to clearly observe the information on the display panel during use, such as working time and vibration frequency. This not only increases the operability of the equipment, but also enables users to understand the treatment progress in real time and ensure the accurate execution of the treatment plan. The cover plate and the transparent top plate are tightly connected by magnetic strips, which protects the control panel from external interference and prevents misoperation.

[0029] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.

[0030] A pediatric expectorant back tapping device, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, it includes a main body 12 and a hand gripper 1. A vibrator 13 is provided on the top of the main body 12, and a buckle groove 14 is provided on the bottom of the main body 12. A striped airbag 15 is provided inside the buckle groove 14.

[0031] The bottom of the hand gripper 1 is provided with a base 2, and a laser displacement sensor 16 is provided on one side of the base 2. The hand gripper 1 has a first mounting groove 7 inside, and a control panel 8 is provided inside the first mounting groove 7. The bottom of the first mounting groove 7 has a second mounting groove 9, and a display panel 10 and an audible and visual alarm 11 are provided inside the second mounting groove 9. The buckle groove 14 at the bottom of the main body 12 is used to fasten to the back of the child, which can fit tightly to the back of the child, ensure effective transmission of vibration energy, and increase comfort. The hand gripper 1 allows the user to easily hold the back buckle, while the base 2 provides stable support.

[0032] See Figure 1 The vibrator 13 is provided in two sets, and the two sets of vibrators 13 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the hand gripper 1. Each set of vibrators 13 is provided with three units. The two sets of vibrators 13 are symmetrically arranged, and each set has three vibration units. This configuration can ensure that the vibration energy is transmitted to the child's back more evenly and comprehensively. The vibrators 13 are symmetrically arranged, so during use, vibration therapy can be performed on both sides of the child's back at the same time.

[0033] See Figure 2 The striped airbags 15 are arranged in a linear array at equal intervals, which allows the back brace to better fit the curve and contour of the child's back when it comes into contact with the child's back. Children's body shapes and back curves are different, and the striped airbags 15 arranged at equal intervals can better adapt to these differences.

[0034] See Figure 1There are two main bodies 12, which are mirror images of each other along the central axis of the hand gripper 1. This makes the entire back-tapping device more symmetrical and balanced in structure. Both main bodies 12 are equipped with vibrators 13 and striped airbags 15. This means that during treatment, the child's back will be subjected to vibration from two directions at the same time, which improves the efficiency of sputum expectoration and the treatment effect.

[0035] See Figure 1 The top of the hand gripper 1 is provided with a transparent top plate 3. One side of the transparent top plate 3 is rotatably connected to a cover plate 4 via a pivot. The design of the transparent top plate 3 allows the user to clearly observe the working status of the back buckle during use. The pivot connection allows the cover plate 4 to rotate open and close relative to the transparent top plate 3, providing convenience for the user.

[0036] See Figure 1 , Figure 4 A protrusion 5 is provided on one side of the cover plate 4, and a magnetic strip 6 is provided on the bottom of the cover plate 4. The protrusion 5 provides the user with an intuitive and easy-to-operate point of force for opening and closing the cover plate 4. The presence of the magnetic strip 6 ensures that the cover plate 4 can be firmly attached to the inner wall of the hand gripper 1 when closed, and will not easily fall off or shake.

[0037] The implementation principle of this utility model is as follows: First, the cover plate 4 is opened by the protrusion 5. The vibration frequency, vibration intensity and working time of the vibrator 13 are set by the control panel 8. The cover plate 4 is closed and the magnetic strip 6 of the cover plate 4 is attached to the inner wall of the hand gripper 1. The user holds the hand gripper 1 and places the back brace on the child's back. The striped airbag 15 is inflated to make the device fit the child's back. At the same time, the vibrator 13 makes the main body 13 vibrate. When the device is working, the user can observe the current working time and vibration number displayed on the display panel 10 through the transparent top plate 3. At the same time, the laser displacement sensor 16 monitors the displacement of the device and the child's back in real time. When the displacement exceeds the threshold, the sound and light alarm 11 will send a signal to remind the user.

[0038] All parts not covered in this utility model are the same as or can be implemented using existing technologies, and will not be described in detail here.
