The straps 103 can pass through the ear loops 106 and slide within the ear loops 106. One side of the straps 103 is provided with a rough surface 104 and a hook surface 105, and the rough surface 104 and the hook surface 105 are bonded together. The soothing unit 200 includes a bracket 201, a patting plate 202 is provided on the top of the bracket 201, a rubber pad 203 is fixed on one side of the patting plate 202, and a control component for controlling the patting plate 202 to pat is provided above the bracket 201.
[0027] When in use, after surgery, the child lies prone on the prone sleeping pillow body 101, then the strap 103 is passed through the ear loop 106, and then the strap 103 is turned over so that the hook side 105 and the rough side 104 are glued together, so that the strap 103 restrains the child on the prone sleeping pillow body 101 and prevents the child from falling off the prone sleeping pillow body 101.
[0028] The control component includes a U-shaped plate 204 fixed to the top of the bracket 201. A rotating rod 205 is rotatably connected inside the U-shaped plate 204. A connecting plate 206 is fixed to the outside of the rotating rod 205. The side of the connecting plate 206 away from the rotating rod 205 is fixed to the striking plate 202. A hollow plate 207 is fixed to one side of the U-shaped plate 204. A drive gear 208 is fixed to one end of the rotating rod 205 that extends into the hollow plate 207. A double-sided toothed plate 209 is provided inside the hollow plate 207. The double-sided toothed plate 209 and the drive gear 208 mesh with each other.
[0029] Furthermore, a single-sided toothed plate 210 is provided inside the hollow plate 207, and two guide plates 211 are fixed inside the hollow plate 207. The two guide plates 211 pass through the double-sided toothed plate 209 and the single-sided toothed plate 210 respectively. The double-sided toothed plate 209 and the single-sided toothed plate 210 are slidably engaged with the outer side of the corresponding guide plate 211. Rectangular plates 212 are fixed at both ends of the top of the single-sided toothed plate 210. The top of the rectangular plates 212 is fixed to the bottom of the double-sided toothed plate 209. A motor 215 is installed on one side of the hollow plate 207, and an incomplete gear 21 is provided inside the hollow plate 207. 3. The incomplete gear 213 can mesh with the double-sided toothed plate 209 and the single-sided toothed plate 210. A rotating shaft 214 is fixed on the incomplete gear 213. The rotating shaft 214 passes through the hollow plate 207 and is rotatably connected to the hollow plate 207. A motor 215 is installed on the hollow plate 207. The output end of the motor 215 is fixed to the rotating shaft 214. A limiting cloth 216 is fixed on one side of the prone sleeping pillow body 101. A groove 217 is opened in the bracket 201. The limiting cloth 216 passes through the groove 217. The bracket 201 can slide outside the limiting cloth 216.
[0030] In use, the motor 215 is started to drive the rotating shaft 214 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft 214 drives the incomplete gear 213 to rotate. When the incomplete gear 213 rotates to mesh with the double-sided gear plate 209, it drives the double-sided gear plate 209 to move. The movement of the double-sided gear plate 209 drives the single-sided gear plate 210 to move via the rectangular plate 212. The movement of the double-sided gear plate 209 drives the drive gear 208 and the rotating rod 205 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating rod 205 drives the connecting plate 206, the striking plate 202, and the rubber pad 20. 3. Rotation: When the incomplete gear 213 rotates until it separates from the double-sided toothed plate 209, the incomplete gear 213 continues to rotate until it meshes with the single-sided toothed plate 210, causing the single-sided toothed plate 210 to move in the opposite direction. At this time, the movement of the single-sided toothed plate 210 drives the double-sided toothed plate 209 to move in the opposite direction through the rectangular plate 212. The movement of the double-sided toothed plate 209 drives the drive gear 208 and the rotating rod 205 to rotate in the opposite direction, thereby driving the patting plate 202 and the rubber pad 203 to pat the child's buttocks, thereby comforting the child.
