[0032] Example

[0033] like Figures 1-4 As shown, an abdominal pressure device for radiotherapy includes a housing 1, a support assembly, and an abdominal pressure assembly.

[0034] The end of the shell 1 facing the ground is clamped to the hospital bed, and the end of the shell 1 near the hospital bed is provided with a patient passage for the patient to pass through.

[0035] To improve the disassembly and assembly of housing 1 and facilitate the replacement of various components, housing 1 is formed by splicing several steel plates together, with two adjacent steel plates connected by bolts.

[0036] As a preferred embodiment, to improve the rigidity of the shell 1, the shell 1 is formed by splicing several steel plates together, and two adjacent steel plates are connected by welding.

[0037] The support assembly includes a guide plate 11 and a fixing plate 10. The guide plate 11 is slidably disposed at the end of the housing 1 away from the bed and is located inside the housing 1. The fixing plate 10 is disposed at intervals on the side of the guide plate 11 away from the bed. The fixing plate 10 is disposed inside the housing 1 and is connected to the housing 1 by welding. An abdominal pressure assembly is disposed on the fixing plate 10 that is movable up and down. The abdominal pressure assembly extends completely through the guide plate 11 into the patient passage on the side facing the bed.

[0038] The abdominal pressure assembly includes an abdominal pressure plate 9 disposed on the side of the guide plate 11 facing the bed. A threaded rod 5 for extending and retracting the abdominal pressure plate 9 is disposed on the side of the abdominal pressure plate 9 facing the guide plate 11. The end of the threaded rod 5 away from the abdominal pressure plate 9 extends outside the housing 1, and the threaded rod 5 is close to the guide plate 11.

[0039] The abdominal pressure plate 9 is used to press on the patient. However, to ensure that the abdominal pressure plate 9 is pressed correctly, the threaded rod 5 can be rotated to move the abdominal pressure plate 9 up and down, so as to avoid the abdominal pressure plate 9 being pressed lightly or excessively.

[0040] The guide plate 11 is provided with a first guide opening for guiding the lateral movement of the threaded rod 5. The guide plate 11 is also slidably provided with a first limiting member 8 on the side facing the fixed plate 10. The two ends of the first limiting member 8 abut against the housing 1 respectively. The first limiting member 8 and the threaded rod 5 are connected by threads. The first limiting member 8 is used to limit the threaded rod 5 to prevent the threaded rod 5 from spinning freely when it rotates.

[0041] The fixed plate 10 is provided with a second guide port for guiding the lateral movement of the threaded rod 5. The fixed plate 10 is also slidably provided with a second limiting member 7 on the side away from the guide plate 11.

[0047] The connection method between screw 4 and slider 3 is existing technology. This solution does not further improve motor 2, and therefore does not provide further explanation of this connection method.

[0048] Motor 2 is existing technology. This case does not make any further improvements to motor 2, nor does it make any further technological changes to motor 2.

[0049] A rotating handle 6 is provided at the end of the threaded rod 5 away from the hospital bed, and the rotating handle 6 is also spaced on the housing 1. The rotating handle 6 is also provided with anti-slip grooves.

[0050] Two telescopic components are provided on the side of the guide plate 11 facing the hospital bed, and the two telescopic components are located on both sides of the patient passage. Each telescopic component has a limiting plate 14 for fixing the telescopic component at the end away from the guide plate 11.

A pair of second telescopic rods are spaced apart on the side of each fixed seat 18 facing the limiting plate 14. A second spring 16 for providing elastic support is also sleeved on the outer edge of the second telescopic rod, and the second spring 16 is located between the fixed seat 18 and the limiting plate 14. An anti-slip sleeve 15 is provided at the end of each second telescopic rod away from the fixed seat 18. A pull ring is also provided at the end of each second telescopic rod that extends completely through the fixed seat 18 to the outside of the housing 1.

[0054] Each second telescopic rod is connected to the fixed seat 18 via a second limiting seat 17, and the second spring 16 is located within the second limiting seat 17.

[0055] A pair of fixed seats 18 are spaced apart at the end of the housing 1 away from the support assembly, and the pair of fixed seats 18 are located on both sides of the patient passage. The housing 1 and the fixed seats 18 are connected by bolts. Each fixed seat 18 is spaced apart on the side facing the limiting plate 14 with a pair of second telescopic rods that can move within the fixed plate 10. A second spring 16 for providing elastic support is also sleeved on the outer edge of the second telescopic rod, and the second spring 16 is located between the fixed seat 18 and the limiting plate 14. An anti-slip sleeve 15 is provided at the end of each second telescopic rod away from the fixed seat 18, and a pull ring is provided at the end of each second telescopic rod that extends completely through the fixed seat 18 to the outside of the housing 1.

[0056] Each second telescopic rod is connected to the fixed seat 18 via a second limiting seat 17, and the second spring 16 is located inside the second limiting seat 17. The second spring 16 is fixedly installed at one end of the second limiting seat 17 facing the guide plate 11. The second limiting seat 17 and the fixed seat 18 are connected by threads, and the second telescopic rod can move up and down within the second limiting seat 17.

[0057] When the user needs the housing 1 to be clamped on the hospital bed, the user pulls the pull ring, which causes the second spring 16 of the second telescopic rod to compress until there is a position between the fixed seat 18 and the limiting plate 14 that is fully available for the clamped object to enter. The user then slowly releases the pull ring.
