In this embodiment, there are four of each of the first elastic band 2, the second elastic band 3, and the third elastic band 5. By spaced out the first elastic band 2, the second elastic band 3, and the third elastic band 5, the coverage on the skin is reduced, increasing breathability. Simultaneously, the parallel and overlapping arrangement of the second elastic band 3 and the third elastic band 5 prevents them from being misaligned when connected to the first breathable side band 1 and the second breathable side band 22, which would affect breathability. Multiple support strips 15 are fixedly connected to the outer sides of the first breathable side band 1 and the second breathable side band 22, providing auxiliary support for them. The first breathable side band 1 and the second breathable side band 22 are provided with multiple ventilation holes 21, further increasing their breathability.

[0021] Preferably, such as Figure 1 As shown, the first connecting mechanism 4 includes a first vertical strap 9 and a first Velcro 10; the first vertical strap 9 is fixedly connected to the outer ends of all the second elastic straps 3; the first Velcro 10 is disposed on the outer front end of the second breathable side strap 22; a first Velcro male 11 is provided on the inner side of the first vertical strap 9, and the first Velcro male 11 cooperates with the first Velcro female 10. The first connecting mechanism 4 first pulls the second elastic strap 3 to the opposite side to a suitable tightness, and then attaches the first Velcro female 10 on the first vertical strap 9 to the first Velcro male 11 at a suitable position, thereby realizing the connection between the second elastic strap 3 and the second breathable side strap 22.

[0022] Preferably, such as Figure 1As shown, the second connecting mechanism 6 includes a second vertical band 12 and a second magic mother sticker 13; the second vertical band 12 is fixedly connected with the outer end of all the third elastic bands 5; the second magic mother sticker 13 is arranged on the outer side of the front end of the first breathable side band 1; the inner side of the second vertical band 12 is provided with a second magic male sticker 14 which cooperates with the second magic mother sticker 13. The second connecting mechanism 6 first pulls the third elastic band 5 to the appropriate tightness on the opposite side, and then sticks the second magic mother sticker 13 on the second vertical band 12 to the appropriate position on the second magic male sticker 14, so as to realize the connection between the third elastic band 5 and the first breathable side band 1.

[0023] Preferably, as shown in Figure 2 and 3 As shown, the outer side of the rear end of the first breathable side band 1 and the second breathable side band 22 is provided with a connecting block 16 made of plastic material, the connecting block 16 is provided with a connecting groove 17, the connecting groove 17 is connected with a hook block 18, the upper end of the hook block 18 is connected with a fourth elastic band 19, the other end of the fourth elastic band 19 is provided with a third magic male sticker 20 which cooperates with the first magic mother sticker 10 of the first connecting mechanism 4 or the second magic mother sticker 13 of the second connecting mechanism 6 on the same side. When the patient needs to walk and is worried that the side band 1 will fall off, the hook block 18 of the fourth elastic band 19 can be clamped into the connecting groove 17 of the connecting block 16, and then the fourth elastic band 19 is wound around the patient's shoulder and the end with the third magic male sticker 20 is pulled down tightly, and then is stuck to the appropriate position of the first magic mother sticker 10 and the second magic mother sticker 13 on the same side, so as to realize that the fourth elastic band 19 pulls the first breathable side band 1 and the second breathable side band 22 on both sides to prevent them from falling down.

[0024] Working principle:

[0025] The first breathable side band 1 and the second breathable side band 22 are respectively arranged on both sides of the patient, and then the second elastic band 3 and the third elastic band 5 are connected with the corresponding breathable side band on the opposite side through the first connecting structure and the second connecting mechanism 6, and at the same time the first elastic band 2, the second elastic band 3 and the third elastic band 5 pull the first breathable side band 1 and the second breathable side band 22 inward to bind the chest of the patient, so as to achieve the fixing effect. At the same time, since the first breathable side band 1 and the second breathable side band 22 are both sewn by multiple layers of gauze, the comfort and air permeability are increased and the occurrence of pressure sores is reduced.
