Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical assistive device technology, specifically to an assistive rehabilitation structure after finger amputation surgery. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous advancement of medical technology, the success rate of finger replantation surgery has gradually increased. However, promoting functional recovery of the severed finger after surgery has become a new challenge. To improve patients' quality of life and hand function after finger replantation surgery, specialized assistive rehabilitation structures are needed to help patients with rehabilitation training. These structures can help patients gradually recover functions such as flexion, extension, and grasping of the severed finger by providing appropriate support, fixation, and training methods, thus meeting patients' needs for functional recovery.

[0003] There are many existing technologies for finger rehabilitation training, such as:

[0004] According to Chinese patent application number CN202322736398.2, specifically a finger rehabilitation trainer includes a base plate and a vertical plate. A top plate is fixedly connected to the inner top of the vertical plate, and multiple control structures are connected to the bottom of the top plate. A finger ring is connected to the bottom of each control structure. A bent rod is fixedly connected to the front of the vertical plate. Through the control structure, the finger ring is subjected to force and rotates on the outer wall of a sleeve in conjunction with a second bracket. Simultaneously, the sleeve moves downward on the vertical rod. The moving sleeve, in conjunction with the second ring, stretches a spring. The vertical rod and the sleeve restrict the spring, preventing irregular deformation. The vertical rod rotates on the inner wall of the second bracket. After the finger is relaxed, the spring provides a rebound force, causing the second ring to move the sleeve upward, which in turn, in conjunction with the second bracket, moves the finger ring back to its original position, ensuring the normal operation of the rehabilitation trainer and guaranteeing its service life.

[0005] However, the training methods for fingers in the above-mentioned techniques are relatively simple, making it inconvenient to provide more refined auxiliary exercises for finger recovery, thereby reducing the practicality of auxiliary rehabilitation tools. Furthermore, it is impossible to detect and record the rehabilitation training results during the process, making it difficult for patients and their families to intuitively experience the rehabilitation process. Utility Model Content

[0006] This utility model addresses the technical problems existing in the prior art by providing an auxiliary rehabilitation structure for post-operative finger amputation. It solves the problems that traditional auxiliary rehabilitation training devices have relatively simple training methods, cannot meet the needs of multiple finger function recovery, and are inconvenient for patients and their families to intuitively experience the rehabilitation process.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an auxiliary rehabilitation structure for postoperative finger amputation, including an intelligent recording mechanism. A first finger plate is provided on one side of the intelligent recording mechanism, a second finger plate is rotatably connected to one end of the first finger plate, and a third finger plate is rotatably connected to one end of the second finger plate. Sliding grooves are symmetrically arranged inside the first, second, and third finger plates, and sliding columns are slidably connected inside the sliding grooves. Pressure sensors are fixedly connected inside the first, second, and third finger plates.

[0008] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0009] 1. The intelligent recording device for pre-rehabilitation training is worn on the wrist through the connection between two tightening straps. It is easy to operate and has a small overall structure, making it convenient to carry and store the assistive rehabilitation device.

[0010] 2. During rehabilitation training, it facilitates precise rehabilitation training of the severed finger in terms of strength and bending functions. The overall structure meets the needs of multiple function recovery training for the fingers, improving the practicality of assistive rehabilitation devices. Furthermore, the training data is recorded and displayed through an intelligent recording mechanism, allowing patients to intuitively see the results of rehabilitation training and encouraging them to train more actively.

[0011] 3. After rehabilitation training, external air is repeatedly pumped into the air bladder using an air pump. The air bladder expands and repeatedly squeezes the fingers, relieving swelling, strengthening muscles, and improving finger mobility. Appropriate squeezing stimulation can promote nerve repair and regeneration, enhance nerve conduction function, and help restore the fingers' sensory and motor control abilities.

[0012] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0013] Preferably, the intelligent recording mechanism has a display panel at its top and tightening straps symmetrically arranged on one side.

[0014] The advantages of adopting the above-mentioned further solutions are that they are simple to operate, easy to install and disassemble, and have a small overall size, making them easy to carry and store.

[0015] Preferably, a massage ball is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding column, and protective sleeves are fixedly connected to the tops of the first finger plate, the second finger plate and the third finger plate. An air bladder is fixedly connected to the inside of the protective sleeve, a connecting hose is fixedly connected between the two air bladders, and an air pump is fixedly connected inside one of the protective sleeves.

[0016] The beneficial effects of adopting the above-mentioned further measures are that the massage ball comes into contact with the patient's fingertips, massages the fingertips muscles, promotes blood circulation, and the inflatable bladder repeatedly squeezes the fingers to relieve swelling, enhance muscle strength, and help restore the fingers' sensation and motor control.

[0017] Preferably, the first finger plate is fixedly connected to one side of the intelligent recording mechanism by an elastic connecting strip.

[0018] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the elastic connecting strip is made of a flexible and soft material, which enables the assistive rehabilitation device to be used for fingers of different positions and lengths, eliminating the need to design corresponding auxiliary structures according to different finger amputation positions, and reducing the production cost of the assistive rehabilitation device.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0020] The severed finger is placed inside multiple protective sleeves after surgery. The thumb is then placed on the bottom of the first, second, and third finger plates in sequence, creating relative force between the thumb and the severed finger to train the finger's usage strength. During the process, pressure sensors detect the pressure in real time and transmit the data to an intelligent recording mechanism. The intelligent recording mechanism records and displays the data, allowing for a more intuitive view of the finger's motor function recovery effect through the display panel. By controlling the sliding column within the groove using the thumb and the severed finger, more precise rehabilitation training can be performed on the severed finger.

[0030] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides an auxiliary rehabilitation structure for post-operative finger amputation, including an intelligent recording mechanism 1. Considering that traditional techniques for finger training are relatively simple and inconvenient for more refined auxiliary exercises for finger recovery, thus reducing the practicality of auxiliary rehabilitation tools, and that the rehabilitation training results cannot be detected and recorded during the process, making it difficult for patients and their families to intuitively experience the rehabilitation process, the intelligent recording mechanism 1 is provided with a first finger plate 2 on one side, a second finger plate 21 rotatably connected to one end of the first finger plate 2, and a third finger plate 22 rotatably connected to one end of the second finger plate 21. The first finger plate 2, the second finger plate 21, and the third finger plate 22 are all symmetrically provided with sliding grooves 23, and sliding columns 24 are slidably connected inside the sliding grooves 23. The first finger plate 2, the second finger plate 21, and the third finger plate 22 are all symmetrically provided with sliding grooves 23. Each of the two components is internally equipped with a pressure sensor 26. By placing the thumb sequentially on the bottom of the first finger plate 2, the second finger plate 21, and the third finger plate 22, relative force is generated between the thumb and the severed finger, training the finger's usage strength. During the process, the pressure sensor 26 detects the pressure in real time and then transmits the data to the intelligent recording mechanism 1. The intelligent recording mechanism 1 records and displays the training data, allowing for a more intuitive view of the finger's motor function recovery effect. By controlling the sliding column 24 to slide within the groove 23 using the thumb and the severed finger, more precise rehabilitation training of the severed finger can be performed. Furthermore, multiple sliding columns 24 are set in different positions to facilitate rehabilitation training at different locations of the severed finger. The overall structure meets the needs of multiple finger function recovery training, improving the practicality of the assistive rehabilitation device.

[0032] The improvements in this embodiment are: it facilitates precise rehabilitation training of the severed finger in terms of strength and bending functions; the overall structure meets the needs of multiple function recovery training of the finger, improves the practicality of the assistive rehabilitation device; and the training data is recorded and displayed through the intelligent recording mechanism 1, which allows patients to intuitively see the results of rehabilitation training and encourages patients to train more actively.

[0033] Specifically, considering the installation and portability of assistive rehabilitation devices, and to facilitate patients' rehabilitation training anytime and anywhere, the intelligent recording mechanism 1 is equipped with a display panel 11 at its top and a tightening strap 12 symmetrically arranged on one side. The intelligent recording mechanism 1 is worn on the wrist through the connection between the two tightening straps 12. It is simple to operate and has a compact overall structure, making it easy to carry and store assistive rehabilitation devices. The training data is displayed on the display panel 11, allowing patients to intuitively see the results of their rehabilitation training and encouraging them to train more actively.

[0034] Considering that prolonged finger training can easily lead to muscle tension and hinder the recovery of the patient's fingers, a massage ball 25 is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding column 24. When the sliding column 24 slides inside the groove 23, the massage ball 25 contacts the fingertip of the patient, massaging the fingertip muscles and promoting blood circulation. The tops of the first finger plate 2, the second finger plate 21, and the third finger plate 22 are all fixedly connected to protective sleeves 3. An air bladder 31 is fixedly connected to the inside of the protective sleeve 3. A connecting hose 32 is fixedly connected between two air bladders 31. An air pump 33 is fixedly connected inside one of the protective sleeves 3. The air pump 33 repeatedly inflates the air bladder 31, causing it to expand and repeatedly squeeze the fingers, relieving swelling, strengthening muscles, and improving finger mobility. Appropriate squeezing stimulation can promote nerve repair and regeneration, enhance nerve conduction function, and help restore the sensory and motor control abilities of the fingers.

[0035] Considering the differences in body shape and hand size among patients, in order to increase the applicability of assistive rehabilitation devices and make them suitable for patients of different body shapes, the first finger plate 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the intelligent recording mechanism 1 by an elastic connecting strip 4. The elastic connecting strip 4 is made of a flexible and soft material, which improves the flexibility of the connection between the first finger plate 2 and the intelligent recording mechanism 1. This allows the first finger plate 2, the second finger plate 21, and the third finger plate 22 to be used for fingers of different positions and lengths, eliminating the need to design corresponding auxiliary structures according to different finger amputation positions and reducing the production cost of assistive rehabilitation devices.

[0036] In summary, the working principle of this solution is as follows:

[0037] In use, the intelligent recording mechanism 1 is first worn on the wrist via the tightening strap 12 to secure its position. The operation is simple, and the overall structure is compact, making it easy to carry and store as an assistive rehabilitation device. Then, the finger requiring assistance is passed through one end of the first finger plate 2 and into multiple protective sleeves 3. During this process, the elastic connecting strip 4 provides elasticity, allowing the first finger plate 2 and other structures to be worn on fingers of different lengths in different positions. The thumb is placed sequentially on the bottom of the first finger plate 2, the second finger plate 21, and the third finger plate 22, creating relative force with the severed finger to train its usage strength. During this process, the pressure sensor 26 detects the pressure in real time and transmits the data to the intelligent recording mechanism 1. The intelligent recording mechanism 1 records and displays the training data, providing a more intuitive view of the finger movement recovery effect. The thumb and the severed finger control sliding column 24 slides inside the groove 23, allowing for more precise rehabilitation training of the severed finger. During the process, the massage ball 25 contacts the fingertip of the patient, massaging the fingertip muscles and promoting blood circulation. Multiple sliding columns 24 are positioned at different locations to facilitate rehabilitation training at different points on the severed finger. The overall structure meets the needs of various finger function recovery training, improving the practicality of the auxiliary rehabilitation device. Prolonged training can easily lead to muscle tension in the fingers, hindering recovery. Therefore, after training, the air pump 33 is activated to repeatedly inflate the air bladder 31 with external air. The inflating air bladder 31 repeatedly compresses the finger, relieving swelling, strengthening muscles, and improving finger mobility. Appropriate compression stimulation can promote nerve repair and regeneration, enhance nerve conduction function, and help restore the finger's sensory and motor control abilities.
