Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary equipment technology, and in particular to a simple scrotum support. Background Technology

[0002] Patients postoperatively with malignant tumors of the penile scrotum often experience transient scrotal edema, characterized by swollen, shiny, and thinned skin. Postoperative pressure bandaging of the surgical site and thick perineal dressings can exacerbate the edema. Currently used scrotal support underwear is expensive, cumbersome to put on and take off, not breathable, covers the anus, hindering bowel movements for bedridden patients, and often has indwelling catheters. Furthermore, the penis is often bandaged, resulting in a short exposed length of the glans penis, making it unsuitable for these patients. Simple T-shaped supports like those from Yuqilin are not comfortable, soft, or flexible enough. Since scrotal edema typically lasts only 1-2 weeks, patients are often dissatisfied with existing supports, finding them cumbersome. Currently, gauze or masks are often used to support and fix the scrotum to the dressing. This method is prone to displacement, significantly increasing clinical workload, and its effectiveness is generally limited. Based on these needs, a simplified scrotal support has been designed. It prevents scrotal displacement, is easy to manufacture, inexpensive, does not interfere with bowel movements, and is suitable for patients with temporary scrotal edema. Utility Model Content

[0023] It is readily understood that, based on the technical solution of this utility model, those skilled in the art can propose various interchangeable structural methods and implementations without altering the essential spirit of this utility model. Therefore, the following detailed embodiments and accompanying drawings are merely illustrative descriptions of the technical solution of this utility model and should not be considered as the entirety of this utility model or as limitations or restrictions on the technical solution of this utility model.

[0024] Example 1:

[0025] Key reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The device mainly includes a scrotum support cover 1, a binding cloth 2, a first elastic cloth 3, and a third elastic cloth 8.

[0026] The device mimics the design of existing face masks. The scrotal support 1 has a folded fabric in the middle, similar to the folding of existing face masks.

[0027] A binding cloth 2 is fixedly installed on the back of the scrotum support 1 near the bottom. The periphery of the binding cloth 2 is fixedly installed on the scrotum support 1. The middle of the binding cloth 2 is an installation cavity, in which a plastic sleeve 11 is installed. A metal strip 12 is installed inside the plastic sleeve 11. Pressing the metal strip 12 can make one side of the scrotum support 1 bend or cover up, thus binding the scrotum. The metal strip 12 is a bendable metal, which has a certain degree of obstruction and can prevent the scrotum from slipping out of the support.

[0028] A sponge layer is installed on the side of the scrotum support 1 that is close to the binding cloth 2.

[0029] Two first elastic fabrics 3 are fixedly installed on the top of the scrotum support 1, and two third elastic fabrics 8 are fixedly installed on the bottom of the scrotum support 1.

[0030] Example 2: Based on Example 1, a technical means was added to enable the device to be worn by people of various body types.

[0031] Key reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment mainly includes a waist-cinching cloth 6 and a day buckle 4.

[0032] A round loop fastener 7 is installed on the outer side of the waistband fabric 6, and a second barbed loop fastener 10 is installed on the inner side of the waistband fabric 6 near one end. The second barbed loop fastener 10 cooperates with the round loop fastener 7.

[0033] A buckle 4 is installed on the side of the first elastic fabric 3 away from the scrotum support 1. Two second elastic fabrics 5 are installed on the waist-cinching fabric 6. The two second elastic fabrics 5 are wrapped around the buckle 4 to adjust the total length of the second elastic fabrics 5 and the first elastic fabric 3 after installation.

[0034] The other end of the scrotum support cover 1 is fixedly installed with a third elastic fabric 8, and a barbed hook and loop fastener 9 is fixedly installed on the third elastic fabric 8. The barbed hook and loop fastener 9 cooperates with the round hook and loop fastener 7.

[0035] The other features of Example 2 are the same as those of Example 1.

[0036] In practice, the first step is to place the patient's scrotum inside the scrotal support 1. At this point, the metal strip 12 is pinched to form a cover shape. The metal strip 12, with its certain rigidity, prevents the scrotum from slipping out of the support. When wearing the support, the metal strip 12 is positioned at the back of the patient's scrotum to prevent slippage. Since the size of edema varies from person to person, and the area of ​​the gauze-covered wound also differs, preventing slippage is crucial as a swollen scrotum may leak out from the bottom during movement. Therefore, a stable support and fixation at the bottom is necessary. The built-in metal strip 12 allows for easy adjustment and better scrotal coverage. Specifically, the bottom of the scrotum is reinforced with sutures, and an adjustable, flexible metal strip 12 is built-in, providing better fixation, coverage, and support for different sizes of scrotal edema in different patients.

[0037] Step 2: Place the waist trainer 6 on the patient's waist and make the round Velcro 7 and the second barbed Velcro 10 adhere to each other, so that the waist trainer 6 can be fixed on the waist of patients with various waist sizes.

[0038] Step 3: Based on the patient's body shape, the barbed Velcro 9 and round Velcro 7 are combined to wrap the second elastic fabric 5 around the buckle 4. This ensures the device stably protects the patient's scrotum and prevents it from slipping off the cup, making it easy for people of various body types to wear.

[0039] The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the content described above. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the above embodiments without departing from the technical concept of this utility model, and all such modifications and variations should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
