Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of medical supplies, and particularly relates to a portable adjustable limb pillow. BACKGROUND

[0002] In clinical treatment, many patients need to keep the limbs in a specific straight position or elevated position to prevent or treat certain diseases. For example, the flexor spasm of the upper limb of a hemiplegic patient needs to be promoted to recover the function by fixing the elbow joint in a straight position; the upper limb muscle weakness caused by nerve injury needs to be prevented from shoulder joint subluxation by elevating the affected limb. In addition, the symptoms of limb swelling, deep vein thrombosis and blocked lymphatic return also need to be relieved by elevating the affected limb. These treatment measures are crucial in the rehabilitation process and directly affect the recovery effect and quality of life of the patients.

[0003] At present, the commonly used method in the clinic is to place a pillow under the affected limb to achieve the purpose of elevation. This method is simple and easy to operate, and the cost is relatively low, so it is widely used in many medical institutions.

[0004] However, the ordinary pillow cannot fix the limb, and the affected limb is easy to slide off, resulting in unsatisfactory treatment effect, and even may cause adverse events, such as patients with sensory perception disorders or limb weakness, when they have the need to elevate the affected limb while sitting on a wheelchair, the limbs often slide off the wheelchair without the patient's awareness, and the fingers are easily injured by being pinched on the wheels during the movement of the wheelchair. Secondly, the height of the pillow cannot be adjusted, and it is difficult to adapt to different body positions and treatment needs, especially when a higher elevation is needed in a sitting position, the ordinary pillow cannot meet the requirements. Finally, for patients with cognitive impairment or deep sleep, the ordinary pillow cannot ensure that the limbs are always in the correct position, which seriously affects the treatment effect. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0005] In order to improve the problem that the pillow cannot fix the patient's limb and the height is not adjustable, causing the pillow to be extremely inconvenient to use, the present application provides a portable adjustable limb pillow.

[0006] The portable adjustable limb pillow provided by the present application adopts the following technical scheme:

[0007] A portable adjustable limb pillow comprises:

[0008] A pillow body is internally provided with a flexible filler, is arranged in a round rectangular shape and comprises two opposite long sides and two opposite short sides, and can be folded along the bisector of the two long sides to enter a folded state;

[0012] Further, the zipper is symmetrically arranged with two groups of teeth on the opposite side of the pillow body.

[0013] Further, the fixing assembly comprises a plurality of Velcro, the Velcro comprising a first mounting strip, a second mounting strip, a pile segment and a prickle segment, the first mounting strip and the second mounting strip being arranged in parallel, one end of the first mounting strip and the second mounting strip close to the pillow body being fixedly connected with the pillow body, and the other end of the first mounting strip and the second mounting strip away from the pillow body being movable ends, the pile segment being arranged on the other end of the first mounting strip away from the pillow body, and the prickle segment being arranged on the other end of the second mounting strip away from the pillow body.

[0014] Further, the pile segment is arranged in multiple segments along the length direction of the first mounting strip.

[0015] Further, the first mounting strip and the second mounting strip are arranged as elastic strips.

[0016] Further, the Velcro is arranged on both sides of the pillow body, and the two Velcro arranged on the same side of the pillow body are arranged in parallel and spaced apart.

[0017] Further, the two Velcro arranged on one side of the pillow body are arranged in parallel with the long side of the pillow body, and the two Velcro arranged on the other side of the pillow body are arranged in parallel with the short side of the pillow body.

[0018] Further, the ratio of the long side to the wide side of the pillow body is 3:2.

[0019] Further, the internal filler of the pillow body is nylon wire or cotton.

[0020] In summary, the present application has at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0021] 1. By arranging the fixing assembly and the locking assembly, when supporting the patient's limbs, the patient's limbs are fixed on the pillow body by the fixing assembly to prevent the patient's limbs from sliding off the pillow body and causing adverse events, when the limbs need to be lifted to a higher height, the pillow body is folded and fixed in a locked state by the locking assembly, so that the length of the pillow body is halved and the height is doubled to the height before folding, thereby improving the flexibility of the pillow during use, and greatly improving the convenience of using the pillow.

[0022] 2. By setting the fixing assembly as a magic tape, setting the nap surface section of the magic tape to multiple sections, and providing the first mounting strip and the second mounting strip with elasticity, the fixing assembly can adapt to patients of different body types, meet the different latitude requirements caused by the different fixed positions of the upper and lower limbs, ensure the normal blood circulation of the fixed limbs, and greatly improve the comfort of the patients;

[0023] 3. By locking the folding state of the pillow body through the zipper, the folding and unfolding of the pillow body is more convenient, and in the folded state, the edges of the pillow body are continuously locked by the zipper, so that the stability of the pillow body in the folded state is higher and the smoothness is better.

[0024] 4. By setting the two magic tapes on both sides of the pillow body parallel to the long side or the short side of the pillow body, the patient can choose different sides of the pillow body, realize the fixation of the distal end of the two limbs, or the fixation of the proximal end and the distal end of the same limb, to adapt to the sitting or lying position of the patient, and further improve the convenience of using the pillow.

[0033] In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0034] The embodiments of the present application disclose a portable adjustable limb pillow. Referring to Figure 1 , the portable adjustable limb fixing pillow comprises a pillow body 1, a fixing assembly and a locking assembly, the pillow body 1 is internally provided with a flexible filler such as nylon wire or cotton, the pillow body 1 is integrally arranged in a round-cornered rectangular shape, and four edges of the pillow body 1 comprise two long edges (in the horizontal direction in the drawing) arranged on opposite sides and two short edges (in the vertical direction in the drawing) arranged on opposite sides, the ratio of the long edge to the wide edge of the pillow body 1 is 3:2, in the embodiments of the present application, the length, width and thickness of the pillow body 1 are 60 cm, 40 cm and 15 cm respectively, and the data can be adjusted according to actual needs; the pillow body 1 can be folded along the bisector of the two long edges to enter a folded state; the fixing assembly is arranged on the side surface of the pillow body 1 and is used for fixing the limb of a patient; and the locking assembly is arranged on the pillow body 1 and is used for locking the folded state of the pillow body 1.

[0035] When the pillow is used to support the limb of a patient, the limb of the patient is fixed on the pillow body 1 through the fixing assembly, so as to reduce the possibility of causing adverse effects due to the limb of a hemiplegic patient sliding off the pillow body 1 in an unconscious state; when the patient needs a higher pillow, the pillow body 1 is folded, and the locking state of the pillow body 1 is locked through the locking assembly, the length of the folded pillow body 1 is reduced to half of the length before folding, and the thickness is increased to twice of the thickness before folding, as shown in Figure 5 , the thickness of the pillow body 1 is flexibly changed, so that the convenience of the pillow in use is greatly improved.

[0036] Specifically, referring to Figure 2 , the locking assembly comprises a plurality of magic tapes 3, and the magic tape 3 comprises a first mounting strip 31, a second mounting strip, a nap segment 33 and a prickle segment 34, the first mounting strip 31 and the second mounting strip 32 are both rectangular flexible strips, the first mounting strip 31 and the second mounting strip 32 are arranged in parallel and are spaced apart, one end of the first mounting strip 31 and the second mounting strip 32 close to the pillow body 1 is sewn and fixed with the pillow body 1, the nap segment 33 is arranged at one end of the first mounting strip 31 away from the pillow body 1, and the prickle segment 34 is arranged at one end of the second mounting strip 32 away from the pillow body 1. When the limb of a patient is fixed, the limb of the patient is placed between the first mounting strip 31 and the second mounting strip 32, the prickle segment 34 is connected with the nap segment 33 by moving the first mounting strip 31 and the second mounting strip 32, and then the limb of the patient can be fixed on the pillow body 1.

[0037] In order to make the fixed assembly adapt to patients of different body sizes or limb edema, the pile surface section 33 is provided with a plurality of intervals along the length direction of the first mounting strip 31. Figure 2 As shown, the prickle surface section 34 is connected with the pile surface section 33 at different positions, so as to change the size of the space formed between the first mounting strip 31 and the second mounting strip 32 and the pillow 1, so as to adapt to patients of different body sizes, thereby improving the applicability of the pillow.

[0038] Since the first mounting strip 31 and the second mounting strip 32 are usually fixed to the patient's limbs for a long time, in order to improve the comfort of the patient, the first mounting strip 31 and the second mounting strip 32 are both provided as elastic strips, and the first mounting strip 31 and the second mounting strip 32 are both made of materials such as polyester elastic cloth or nylon elastic cloth. Since the first mounting strip 31 and the second mounting strip 32 both have good elasticity and softness, not only the comfort of the patient can be improved, but also the applicable range of the first mounting strip 31 and the second mounting strip 32 for fixing the patient's limbs can be improved.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 3 , the locking assembly is a zipper 2 provided on the long side of the pillow 1. As an alternative embodiment, the locking assembly can also be a magic tape 3. In this embodiment, the locking assembly adopts the zipper 2. Specifically, the zipper 2 includes a puller 22 and two sets of teeth 21. One set of teeth 21 is fixed to one half of the long side of the pillow 1 by sewing with a needle, and the other set of teeth 21 is fixed to the other half of the long side of the pillow 1 by sewing with a needle. The puller 22 is used to connect the two sets of teeth 21. The connection method is a relatively existing technology, which will not be described here.

[0040] After folding the pillow 1, the teeth of the two sets of teeth 21 are oppositely arranged. By pulling the puller, the two sets of teeth 21 are connected, realizing the locking of the folding state of the pillow 1, so that the edges of the pillow 1 are continuously locked by the zipper 2, and the stability and smoothness of the pillow 1 in the folding state are high.

[0041] In another embodiment, the locking assembly includes two sets of zippers 2, as shown in Figure 6 , the two sets of zippers 2 are respectively arranged on the two long sides of the pillow 1 to prevent the possibility of the folded pillow 1 on the side without the zipper 2 from being raised, thereby further improving the stability and smoothness of the pillow 1 in the folding state.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the magic tape 3 is provided with a total of four, two of which are arranged on the front surface of the pillow 1, as shown in Figure 1 , and the other two are arranged on the back surface of the pillow 1, as shown in Figure 4The length direction of the two magic tapes 3 on the front surface of the pillow body 1 is parallel to the long side of the pillow body 1, and the length direction of the two magic tapes 3 on the back surface of the pillow body 1 is parallel to the short side of the pillow body 1. By fixing the patient's limbs on the front surface or the back surface of the pillow body 1, different fixing effects can be achieved. In this embodiment, the distance between the centers of the two magic tapes 3 on the front surface of the pillow body 1 is 30 cm, and the distance between the centers of the two magic tapes 3 on the back surface of the pillow body 1 is 15 cm. These data can be changed according to actual needs.

[0043] Specifically, when the patient is in a lying position, the pillow body 1 is unfolded, the patient's lower limbs on both sides are placed on the front surface of the pillow body 1, and the distal ends of the patient's two lower limbs are fixed by the two magic tapes 3 on the front surface of the pillow body 1, so that the patient's limbs can be raised by about 30° to meet the needs of the lying position. By placing the patient's lower limb or upper limb on one side on the back surface of the pillow body 1 and fixing the distal end and the proximal end of the patient's upper limb or lower limb by the two magic tapes 3 on the back surface, the whole upper limb or lower limb of the patient can be raised. Especially for hemiplegic patients with upper limb flexor spasm, it is easy to fold the upper limb and place the hand on the chest position at night, which can cause the flexor spasm to be aggravated. By fixing the patient's upper limb near the wrist part and near the shoulder part, the bending of the patient's upper limb can be effectively prevented, so that the patient's upper limb can be in a straight position, which can effectively prevent the patient's flexor spasm. When the patient is in a sitting position, the pillow body 1 is unfolded, and the distal ends of the patient's upper limbs on both sides are fixed by the two magic tapes 3 on the front surface of the pillow body 1, so as to reduce the possibility of the upper limbs of the hemiplegic patient sliding down unconsciously and causing the fingers to be injured by the wheelchair wheels. When the patient has a high requirement for the angle of the limb, especially for the hemiplegic patient sitting in the wheelchair, both edema of the patient's limb and dislocation of the patient's shoulder joint need to be prevented. The pillow body 1 is locked in the folded state, and the distal end of the patient's upper limb is fixed on the pillow body 1, so as to effectively prevent the patient from having the problems of limb edema and shoulder joint dislocation.

[0044] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, and are not limited thereto. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments can be modified, or some technical features can be replaced by equivalent ones. Such modifications or replacements do not change the essence of the corresponding technical solutions, and are within the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
