Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical device technology, and in particular to a structure for an arteriovenous fistula grip strength training device. Background Technology

[0002] Arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are permanent vascular access points primarily used in hemodialysis, serving as a lifeline for patients. Regular intensive exercises can begin two weeks after fistula formation surgery to help dilate the fistula vessels. The maturation of an AVF takes 4–12 weeks, and expert consensus suggests that postoperative functional exercises can promote fistula maturation. Clinically, approximately 20%–50% of AVFs fail to mature into functional vascular access points. Therefore, using a hand grip strengthener for postoperative arm exercises is currently an important measure to promote fistula maturation.

[0003] Existing arteriovenous fistula grip strength training devices are inconvenient to adjust grip strength during use, and the adjustment increments are large, which is not conducive to the patient's gradual rehabilitation treatment. Moreover, it is impossible to know whether the patient's grip strength has reached the standard during the rehabilitation process. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a device that is easy to adjust and allows for visualization of grip strength effects. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a grip strength training device structure for arteriovenous fistulas, which can effectively solve the aforementioned problems.

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, a clear and complete description will be provided below in conjunction with the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0025] The preferred embodiment of this utility model describes the structure of the arteriovenous fistula grip strength training device, such as... Figure 1-3 As shown, the device includes a base 10, and two side-by-side fixed handles 20 and movable handles 30. The fixed handle 20 is fixedly connected to the base 10. The movable handle 30 has an extension arm 40 at one end near the base 10 to form a figure-7 shape. The movable handle 30 is hinged to the base 10 via the extension arm 40. The rotation direction of the extension arm 40 is coplanar with that of the fixed handle 20. Specifically, the movable handle 30 is located at one end of the extension arm 40 near the base 10. An adjusting screw 50 is provided parallel to the extension arm 40. The adjusting screw 50 is located on the upper side of the extension arm 40. A screw sleeve 60 is threaded onto the adjusting screw 50. A mounting bracket 70 is provided on the side of the base 10 away from the fixed handle 20. The mounting bracket 70 is connected to the screw sleeve 60 via a spring 80. The mounting bracket 70 is integrally connected to the base 10 for easy manufacturing.

[0026] The base 10 is equipped with a pressure indicator light 90 and a pressure triggering component 100 that triggers the pressure indicator light 90 when pressure is applied. When the patient grips the fixed handle 20 and the movable handle 30, the pressure triggering component 100 is pressed down by the palm and reaches its threshold, which illuminates the pressure indicator light 90. At this time, the patient can know whether their grip strength meets the standard. Generally, a green light is used to indicate that it is qualified. If it is unqualified or has not reached the standard grip strength, a red light will illuminate. The overall structure of this utility model is simple and easy to adjust. More refined grip strength adjustment can be achieved by adjusting the screw 50. Moreover, the combination of the pressure triggering component 100 and the pressure indicator light 90 can indicate to the patient whether their grip strength meets the standard. It is simple to use and has rich functions.

[0027] In this embodiment, the fixed handle 20 is integrally connected to the base 10. The mounting bracket 70, the fixed handle 20, and the base 10 are all integrally injection molded from plastic, which ensures structural strength while also facilitating processing and manufacturing.

[0028] In this embodiment, the pressure indicator light 90 is located on the side of the base 10 away from the extension arm 40, so that the patient can intuitively observe the status of the pressure indicator light 90.

[0029] In this embodiment, the pressure triggering component 100 includes a microcontroller 101 and a pressure sensor 102 electrically connected to it. The microcontroller 101 can be a commercially available 89 or ARM series. The pressure indicator light 90 is electrically connected to the microcontroller 101, and the detection circuit of the pressure sensor 102 can be implemented using a conventional LM2904 pressure sensor 102 detection circuit. The pressure sensor 102 is located on the side wall of the fixed handle 20 away from the movable handle 30. Specifically, there are multiple pressure sensors 102, which are evenly arranged along the length of the fixed handle 20 to detect the pressure at multiple points on the patient's thumb.

[0030] In this embodiment, the base 10 is provided with a mounting cavity 110, and the microcontroller 101 is located in the mounting cavity 110 to avoid the microcontroller 101 being directly exposed to the outside, thus playing a role in protection and aesthetics.

[0031] In this embodiment, the fixed handle 20 is provided with a battery compartment 120, and the battery compartment 120 is provided with a battery 130 for powering the microcontroller 101. The battery compartment 120 is connected to the mounting cavity 110 through the connecting channel 121. The battery 130 can be a rechargeable battery or a dry cell battery. If a rechargeable battery is used, a charging port needs to be reserved on the fixed handle 20. If a dry cell battery is used, a battery compartment cover needs to be provided to facilitate battery replacement.

[0032] In this embodiment, the base 10 is also provided with a display 130 electrically connected to the microcontroller 101. The display 130 is used to display the pressure value detected by the pressure sensor 102 so that the patient can directly and clearly observe the magnitude of the grip force. In addition, in order to further adapt to the adjustment of the grip force, an adjustment button 190 that can adjust the standard grip force value can be integrated on the microcontroller 101. When the adjustment screw 50 reduces the tension of the spring 80, the vertical of the standard grip force can be adjusted accordingly.

[0033] In this embodiment, a strip groove 140 is provided on the extension arm 40 along its length direction. The end of the strip groove 140 away from the base 10 passes through the end of the extension arm 40. The adjusting screw 50 is located in the strip groove 140 and is longitudinally rotatably connected to the side wall of the base 10 near the strip groove 140 through the bearing 150. The width of the strip groove 140 is the same as the width of the screw sleeve 60. When assembled, the two opposite sides of the screw sleeve 60 slide against the two side walls of the strip groove 140 respectively, so as to ensure that the screw sleeve 60 can move smoothly along the strip groove 140 when the adjusting screw 50 rotates on a fixed axis, thereby reducing shaking.

[0034] In this embodiment, an adjustment cap 160 is longitudinally rotatably provided at one end of the extension arm 40 away from the base 10. The adjustment cap 160 is fixedly connected to the adjustment screw 50 to facilitate adjustment by the patient.

[0035] In addition, a gripping force scale line 170 can be set on the extension arm 40 along its length direction, and a pointer 180 for indicating the scale value can be set on the screw sleeve 60 to facilitate observation of the gripping force corresponding to the length of the spring 80 after adjustment.

[0036] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or modifications based on the above description, and all such improvements and modifications should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims.
