Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of medical device technology, and in particular relates to an abdominal wall shaping and maintenance device. Background Technology

[0002] After abdominal liposuction or liposuction combined with abdominoplasty, patients may have a desire for a concave shape of the midline of the abdomen or the semi-lunar line (commonly known as the "six-pack"). They may even have a desire for defined rectus abdominis muscles (six-pack abs).

[0003] After liposuction or liposuction combined with abdominoplasty, the depressions in the abdominal skin are mainly caused by the reduction in volume of fat between the skin and deeper tissues after the procedure. Without timely local shaping and pressure application, surrounding tissues or fluid will gradually fill the depression, causing it to become less noticeable immediately after the surgery.

[0004] Patients who have undergone liposuction or liposuction combined with abdominoplasty routinely use compression garments. However, compression garments apply pressure evenly to the abdomen, meaning they can only be used to maintain the overall shape of the abdomen after surgery, and cannot maintain the shape of local tissues, especially the contours of the lines. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the drawings described below are merely some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other drawings and other implementation methods can be obtained based on these drawings without any creative effort.

[0037] To keep the drawings concise, only the parts relevant to this invention are shown schematically in each figure, and they do not represent the actual structure of the product. Furthermore, for ease of understanding, in some figures, only one of the components with the same structure or function is schematically depicted, or only one is labeled. In this document, "one" not only means "only one," but can also mean "more than one."

[0038] See Figures 1 to 6 This embodiment provides an abdominal wall shaping and maintaining device, including a shaping strip 1, a preliminary fixing member, and a fixing strap 8. The shaping strip 1 is used to accommodate a recess in the abdominal wall. The top of the shaping strip 1 protrudes from the abdominal wall recess. The bottom of the preliminary fixing member is connected to the top of the shaping strip 1 and extends out to both sides of the shaping strip 1, with the protruding portion used to adhere to the abdominal wall. The fixing strap 8 is used to wrap around the abdomen circumferentially to press and fix the shaping strip 1 tightly in the abdominal wall recess.

[0039] In use, the shaping strip 1 is placed in the abdominal wall depression, and the shaping strip 1 is initially fixed to the abdominal wall using the initial fixation device. Then, the fixing strap 8 is used to fix and press the shaping strip 1 firmly into the abdominal wall depression. In this way, the shaping strip 1 fixed in the abdominal wall depression can prevent the surrounding tissue or tissue fluid from filling the depression, thereby maintaining the local depression shape after surgery.

[0040] The abdominal wall shaping and maintaining device of this embodiment will be further described below.

[0041] The shaping strip 1 includes a shaping portion 11 and a connecting portion 12. The shaping portion 11 is connected to the bottom of the connecting portion 12, and the shaping strip 1 is preferably integrally formed. During use, the shaping portion 11 is housed in the abdominal wall recess and is mainly used for shaping the abdominal wall recess; the connecting portion 12 is exposed outside the abdominal wall recess during use and is mainly used for connecting with other structures. In actual production, various specifications of abdominal wall shaping and maintenance devices can be designed according to the patient's desired shaping size and shape; the main difference between the different specifications lies in the depth and width of the shaping portion 11, i.e., the depth and width of the abdominal line recess.

[0042] The initial fastener is a sheet-like structure, which ensures that after it is attached to the abdominal wall and the top of the shaping strip 1, there is not a significant height difference between it and the abdominal wall without the initial fastener. The initial fastener is located between the abdominal wall and the fixing band 8. When the fixing band 8 is wrapped around the abdomen circumferentially, it passes through the initial fastener so that the fixing band 8 presses and fixes the shaping strip 1 to the abdominal wall recess through the initial fastener.

[0043] Specifically, the sheet-like preliminary fastener has a bottom surface and a top surface. The bottom surface of the preliminary fastener is connected to the top of the shaping strip 1 and extends to both sides of the shaping strip 1, with the extended portion used for adhesion to the abdominal wall. The fastening band 8 has opposing first and second surfaces, as well as a first end and a second end along its length. The first surface is the surface of the fastening band 8 facing the abdominal wall during winding. The top surface of the preliminary fastener is provided with a first hook surface 41, and the first surface of the first end of the fastening band 8 is provided with a first rough surface 81 that matches the first hook surface 41. The second surface of the first end of the fastening band 8 is provided with a second hook surface 84, and the first surface of the second end of the fastening band 8 is provided with a second rough surface 82 that matches the second hook surface 84. The first end of the fastening band 8 is fixed to the preliminary fastener through the adhesive connection between the first rough surface 81 and the first hook surface 41. After the fastening band 8 is wound around the abdomen circumferentially, its second end is fixed to the first end of the fastening band 8 through the adhesive connection between the second rough surface 82 and the second hook surface 84.

[0044] Furthermore, a third rough surface 83 can be provided on the first surface of the second end of the fixing band 8. The third rough surface 83 is disposed between the first rough surface 81 and the second rough surface 82 along the length direction of the fixing band 8; the third rough surface 83 matches the first hook surface 41. The first rough surface 81 of the first end of the fixing band 8 is bonded to a portion of the first hook surface 41 on the preliminary fixing member. After the fixing band 8 is wrapped around the abdomen circumferentially, the third rough surface 83 of its second end is bonded to a portion of the first hook surface 41 on the preliminary fixing member.

[0045] The preliminary fastener includes an adhesive layer, a connecting layer 3, and an adhesive layer. The connecting layer 3 is located between the adhesive layer and the adhesive layer. The surface of the adhesive layer facing away from the connecting layer 3 is the bottom surface of the preliminary fastener, and the surface of the adhesive layer facing away from the connecting layer 3 is the top surface of the preliminary fastener.

[0046] Specifically, the connecting layer 3 includes a thin film, which forms the connecting layer 3. The adhesive layer is a gel colloid layer 2, which is applied to the surface of the thin film facing the shaping strip 1 to form the adhesive layer. That is, one side of the gel colloid layer 2 is covered by the thin film, and the gel colloid layer 2 is bonded to the thin film by the adhesiveness of the gel colloid. The other side of the gel colloid layer 2 is bonded to the shaping strip 1, and the part not bonded to the shaping strip 1 is covered with a preliminary fixing release film 5. The preliminary fixing release film 5 is removed when the abdominal wall support device is in use. The gel layer 2 is bonded to the top of the shaping strip 1 (specifically, the connecting part 12) using the adhesive properties of the gel. The portion of the other side of the gel layer 2 not bonded to the shaping strip 1 adheres to the abdominal wall (the abdominal wall refers to the area outside the abdominal wall recess, mainly the abdominal walls on both sides of the abdominal wall recess) during use, thus fixing the film to the abdominal wall. This allows the film to initially fix the shaping strip 1 to the abdominal wall recess, facilitating the subsequent operation of the fixing band 8. The initial fixing release film 5 seals the gel in the gel layer 2 during transport and storage of the abdominal wall holding device. The initial fixing release film 5 covers the portion of the other side of the gel layer 2 not bonded to the shaping strip 1 and adheres to the gel layer 2 using the adhesive properties of the gel. Preferably, the film is a TPU film, and the gel is preferably a hydrogel.

[0047] The adhesive layer is mainly used to connect the fixing strap 8 to the initial fixing member. The top surface of the initial fixing member needs to have a first hook surface 41. Since the surface of the film cannot be directly fitted with a hook surface, an adhesive layer is required. The adhesive layer can be made of materials such as cloth or nylon; preferably, it is made of cloth in this embodiment, i.e., the adhesive layer is cloth layer 4. The adhesive layer can be connected to the film of the connecting layer 3 by adhesive bonding.

[0048] Preferably, a pre-fixing gel 6 can be adhered to the bottom of the shaping strip 1, and a pre-fixing release film 7 is covered on the outside of the pre-fixing gel 6. The pre-fixing release film 7 seals the pre-fixing gel 6 during transportation and storage of the abdominal wall support device. Before placing the shaping strip 1 into the abdominal wall recess, the pre-fixing release film 7 is first removed, and then the shaping strip 1 is placed in the abdominal wall recess. The bottom of the shaping strip 1 (specifically the bottom of the shaping part 11) is adhered to the bottom of the abdominal wall recess through the pre-fixing gel 6. This ensures that when the shaping strip 1 is initially fixed with the initial fixing component, one end of the shaping strip 1 along its length is fixed while the other end along its length is raised. It eliminates the need to press down the raised end of the shaping strip 1 by hand, making the operation easier.

[0049] Preferably, the shaping strip 1 includes multiple shaping units along its length, and a groove 13 is provided at the connection between the outer walls of two adjacent shaping units; each shaping unit is correspondingly provided with a preliminary fixing member and a fixing strap 8. In this way, the shaping strip 1 can be cut at the groove 13 between adjacent shaping units, thereby adjusting the length of the shaping strip 1 during use, so as to adapt to abdominal wall depressions of different lengths.

[0050] The following describes the usage process of the abdominal wall shaping and maintaining device according to this embodiment. It should be noted that this usage process is merely a feasible example and not a limitation of the invention. The usage process is as follows: First, select a suitable specification based on the shape and size of the abdominal wall depression, and determine whether the shaping strip 1 needs to be shortened based on the length of the abdominal wall depression; then, remove the pre-fixing release film 7 and attach the shaping strip 1 to the abdominal wall depression. The pre-fixing gel 6 exposed at the bottom of the shaping strip 1 after removing the release film will pre-fix the shaping strip 1 to the abdominal wall depression; remove the preliminary fixing release film 5 and attach the preliminary fixing member to the appropriate position on the abdominal wall skin to initially fix the shaping strip 1; then, attach the fixing strap 8... The first rough surface 81 of the first end is pasted to the first hook surface 41 of the preliminary fixing member (only part of the first hook surface 41 is pasted on the first rough surface 81, leaving part of the first hook surface 41 for pasting the third rough surface 83). After wrapping around the abdomen once, the third rough surface 83 of the second end of the fixing band 8 is pasted to the first hook surface 41 of the preliminary fixing member. The second rough surface 82 of the second end of the fixing band 8 is pasted to the second hook surface 84 of the first end of the fixing band 8, so that the fixing band 8 is fixed to the abdomen and the shaping strip 1 is pressed and fixed in the abdominal wall depression.

[0051] Furthermore, the abdominal wall shaping and maintenance device of this embodiment can be used in conjunction with a shaping garment. The abdominal wall shaping and maintenance device of this embodiment is placed between the shaping garment and the patient's skin. The two work together to maintain the overall shaping of the abdomen after surgery, while better applying pressure to the local area (referring to the abdominal wall depression) to maintain the shape of the local tissue, especially the contours of the lines.

[0052] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Even if various changes are made to the present invention, if these changes fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, they shall still fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
