Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clothing technology, and in particular to a corrective garment for adjusting scoliosis. Background Technology
[0002] Idiopathic scoliosis is one of the most common abnormal postures among adolescents. The main causes may be related to prolonged sitting, reduced physical activity, insufficient muscle strength, incorrect movement patterns, and asymmetrical use of the body (such as asymmetrical viewing of TV and mobile phones and maintaining a fixed posture for a long time). When scoliosis occurs, intervention is necessary; otherwise, the misalignment of the spine will lead to a series of health problems.
[0003] Currently available scoliosis correction products mainly include rigid scoliosis braces, represented by the Boston brace, and flexible soft scoliosis braces, represented by the SpineCor brace, as well as flexible scoliosis correction clothing. The principle behind these products is to fix the start and end points of the scoliosis curve using the brace, and apply force in the opposite direction at the most convex point of the curve, thereby controlling the progression of the scoliosis and pushing the curved spine back. Most braces need to be worn for extended periods (more than 18 hours) and the applied force to the spine must be moderate to achieve the desired effect.
[0004] However, the current products all have some problems, such as:
[0005] 1. Rigid braces offer good corrective effects, but they are uncomfortable, have poor compliance, and cannot be used at night, or their effectiveness diminishes when used at night. Because rigid braces forcibly restrict spinal movement, they cannot be used during strenuous physical activities such as sports. Therefore, users are effectively restricted in their physical activity levels, which can hinder their health, especially the healthy development of adolescents.
[0006] 2. Soft braces offer advantages that rigid braces lack, allowing for extended wear without hindering movement. However, currently available soft braces remain expensive, requiring customization or adjustments by specialists to correct specific scoliosis positions. Furthermore, the corrective force for scoliosis cannot fall below the minimum effective contact force; exceeding this threshold can cause discomfort or other problems, necessitating frequent adjustments for effective results. This adjustment process continues throughout the brace's lifespan, and even after planned adjustments, discomfort or ineffective correction may still occur due to factors such as body shape. Relying solely on doctors and lacking self-adjustment significantly increases the barrier to entry, impacting the ease of use of soft braces. Additionally, soft braces and clothing are separate; unsuitable clothing (such as clothing slipping and affecting the direction of force on the elastic bands) can negatively impact the corrective effect of the soft brace. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a corrective garment for adjusting scoliosis, which solves the problems of discomfort and poor corrective effect of existing spinal correction garments.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model discloses a corrective garment for adjusting scoliosis, comprising: an upper garment, lower garment, at least one elastic corrective belt, and elastic rings corresponding to the elastic corrective belt; the upper garment has multiple positioning rings arranged along its length on both sides; the elastic rings are fixed at the shoulder position of the upper garment, one end of the elastic corrective belt is detachably fixed to the elastic ring, and the elastic corrective belt passes through at least two obliquely arranged positioning rings, forming a downward oblique wrap around the back of the upper garment, the other end of the elastic corrective belt is a free end, and a first fixing member is fixedly connected to the free end; the lower garment has a second fixing member at the waist, the second fixing member is used to fix the first fixing member of the elastic corrective belt, thereby fixing the free end of the elastic corrective belt.

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0028] like Figures 1-7 As shown, this utility model provides a corrective garment for adjusting scoliosis, including: an upper garment 100, a lower garment 200, at least one elastic corrective belt 110, and elastic rings 120 corresponding to the elastic corrective belt 110. The upper garment 100 has multiple positioning rings 130 arranged along its length on both sides. In this embodiment, the positioning rings 130 include a first positioning ring 131, a second positioning ring 132, a third positioning ring 133, a fourth positioning ring 134, and a fifth positioning ring 135 arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The first positioning ring 131 corresponds to the T8 vertebra in the upper thoracic region, the second positioning ring 132 corresponds to the T10 vertebra in the middle thoracic region, the third positioning ring 133 corresponds to the T12 vertebra in the lower thoracic region, the fourth positioning ring 134 corresponds to the L2 vertebra in the upper lumbar region, and the fifth positioning ring 135 corresponds to the L4 vertebra in the lower lumbar region. The elastic ring 120 is fixed at the shoulder of the garment. One end of the elastic corrective band 110 is detachably fixed to the elastic ring 120. In this embodiment, the elastic ring 120 is provided with multiple buckles, and one end of the elastic corrective band 110 is provided with multiple buckles that fasten to the buckles, so that one end of the elastic corrective band 110 is detachably fixed to the elastic ring 120. The elastic corrective band 110 passes through at least two obliquely arranged positioning rings 130, forming a diagonal wrap around the back of the garment 100. The other end of the 0 is a free end, on which a first fixing member 111 is fixedly connected. A second fixing member 210 is provided at the waist of the lower garment 200. The second fixing member 210 is used to fix the first fixing member 111 of the elastic corrective belt 110, thereby fixing the free end of the elastic corrective belt 110. In this embodiment, the first fixing member 111 has multiple buckles, and the second fixing member 210 has multiple buckle loops set at the waist of the lower garment. By fastening the buckles with the corresponding buckle loops, the free end of the elastic corrective belt 110 is fixed to the lower garment 200. This utility model utilizes the three-point force principle to effectively apply corrective force, which can limit the progression of scoliosis, correct the scoliosis and restore the spine, and has high wearing comfort. Moreover, the position of the elastic corrective belt 110 can be adjusted according to the correction needs of different positions of the human spine. That is, the elastic corrective belt 110 passes through the positioning rings 130 at different positions, thereby adjusting the position of the corrective force to correct the scoliosis at different positions of the spine, achieving a free adjustment effect.
[0029] Preferably, the corrective garment of this embodiment includes two elastic corrective straps 110 and two elastic rings 120. The two elastic rings 110 are respectively fixed at the left and right shoulder positions of the top 100, and one end of each elastic corrective strap 110 is detachably fixed to the corresponding elastic ring 120. By setting two elastic corrective straps 110, the corrective needs of different people with different scoliosis conditions can be met, improving the adaptability of the product. Compared with the corrective pressure applied by a single elastic corrective strap 110, the two elastic corrective straps 110 can distribute the corrective pressure, greatly improving wearing comfort while ensuring effective corrective force. Preferably, the top 100 is a low-pressure top, and the bottom 200 is a low-pressure trousers / skirt. By applying low pressure to the body, it is easy to fix the elastic corrective straps 110, so that when the elastic corrective straps 110 are stretched, the positioning rings 130 on the top 100 are less likely to shift, thus not affecting the scoliosis correction effect.
[0030] Preferably, the elastic corrective band 110 has a sliding pressure pad 300 on the side near the back of the shirt 100. The pressure pad 300 is made of compressible elastic material and has a groove on the side near the back of the shirt 100 that conforms to the shape of the upper body. When adjusting the elastic corrective band 110, the compression of the pressure pad 300 is observed to determine whether an effective corrective contact force has been achieved. The "effective corrective contact force" refers to the effective pressure applied to both sides of the body by the elastic corrective band 110 when adjusting scoliosis. For example, a pressure of 220-250N is required when the pressure pad 300 is flattened. This pressure corresponds to the effective corrective contact force for correcting scoliosis without sacrificing comfort. Moreover, by setting the sliding pressure pad 300, the effective corrective contact force needs of different positions of the body can be met.
[0031] Explanation of the principle of this utility model:
[0032] The main approach to correcting scoliosis is to utilize the three-point force principle. This involves applying a counterforce (the main point of application) to the most convex point (the convex side) and applying a fixed force (counterforce points) to the upper and lower concave sides. Since the force at one point is opposite to the force at the other two points, the action and reaction forces interact to push the most prominent part of the spine back towards the corrective effect. The elastic corrective band 110 of this invention forms a stable triangular structure, which can effectively reduce the scoliosis angle and stabilize the spine.
[0033] 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.
