Description

An elastic band component for functional rehabilitation exercises for elderly patients Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of physical function rehabilitation exercise technology, specifically an elastic band component for functional rehabilitation exercise of elderly patients. Background Technology

[0002] Resistance training with elastic bands is a simple, convenient, and effective way to improve physical function. It's commonly used to train arm, shoulder, back, and chest muscles, helping to increase muscle strength and cardiovascular function. Suitable for various patient groups, especially middle-aged and elderly patients, those recovering from illness or surgery, and diabetic patients. Resistance training can enhance muscle strength, improve body stability, and prevent falls and fractures. As a form of resistance exercise, it helps lower blood sugar levels and improve insulin sensitivity, benefiting diabetic patients' recovery. For patients whose physical function has declined due to illness or surgery, resistance training can help restore muscle strength and joint flexibility, accelerating the recovery process. Currently, in medical settings, most resistance band products lack dedicated storage and backup devices, causing significant inconvenience for patients with long-term training needs in terms of daily storage and immediate access. In resistance band training, users often need to adjust the resistance and number of bands according to training needs. Adjusting resistance with existing bands is cumbersome and complex. When multiple bands need to be used simultaneously to achieve a specific resistance value, users need to spend considerable time and effort selecting and combining the bands, impacting the patient's training experience. Furthermore, monitoring physiological indicators such as heart rate and blood oxygenation is crucial in resistance band rehabilitation training. Cardiac function monitoring directly reflects the patient's physical condition and training effectiveness, providing doctors / rehabilitation therapists with a scientific basis for evaluating and adjusting training methods and intensity. Currently, resistance band training requires separate monitoring equipment, which is inconvenient and makes timely and effective monitoring difficult.

[0003] Therefore, designing and developing a convenient and multifunctional resistance band training device or apparatus for arm resistance training has become an urgent problem to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the problems existing in the background technology mentioned above by proposing an elastic band assembly for functional rehabilitation exercises for elderly patients. This assembly can be worn on the patient's wrist and can store multiple elastic bands. During training, the patient can directly pull out the required number of elastic bands and lock them after pulling out the target length. This allows for convenient elastic band resistance training anytime, anywhere.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] An elastic band assembly for functional rehabilitation exercises for elderly patients includes a wrist wearing ring and an elastic band mechanism. The wrist wearing ring includes a C-shaped shell and an adjustable tightening structure. The tightening structure is detachably connected at a notch in the C-shaped shell to fix the wrist wearing ring to the wrist. A wearing cavity is formed in the middle of the C-shaped shell, and an assembly cavity is formed inside the hollow C-shaped shell. An opening is provided on the outer wall of the C-shaped shell, and the opening communicates with the assembly cavity. The elastic band mechanism includes an elastic band group and a rebound core group. The elastic band group includes two or more elastic bands, and the rebound core group includes a number of rebound cores equal to the number of elastic bands. Each rebound core includes a winding ring and a spring. All rebound cores are arranged side by side in the assembly cavity along the axis of the wearing cavity. The elastic bands are wound one-to-one on each winding ring. The elastic bands include a pull-out end that protrudes outward from the opening. The C-shaped shell also has a locking mechanism at the opening for controlling whether the elastic band can be pulled.

[0007] Preferably, the fastening structure includes a wrap-around wristband, which is fitted and fixed to the sidewall of the wearing cavity formed by the C-shaped shell. The two ends of the wrap-around wristband extend outward beyond the two ends of the C-shaped shell, and the two ends of the wrap-around wristband are detachably connected.

[0008] Preferably, the wristband also includes a cardiovascular function detection module, which uses a non-invasive sensor. The cardiovascular function detection module is located on the side wall of the wearing cavity, and the sensitive element of the cardiovascular function detection module is exposed to directly contact the wrist artery.

[0009] Preferably, the locking mechanism includes a push button, a movable bite, and a fixed bite. The push button is slidably disposed on a C-shaped housing on one side of the opening. The movable bite is fixedly connected to the push button. The push button controls the movable bite to enter and exit the opening from the side. The fixed bite is fixed to the side wall of the opening, and the fixed bite and the movable bite are distributed on opposite sides of the opening.

[0010] Preferably, a clamping handle is also provided, the clamping handle having a clamping structure for engaging the elastic band, and the pull-out end of the elastic band having an anti-disengagement structure that cooperates with the clamping structure, and any one or more elastic bands can be engaged and fixed in the clamping structure.

[0011] Preferably, the clamping structure includes an insertion channel and a movable buckle. The anti-detachment structure is a thickened end that is thicker than the elastic band body. The insertion channel is at least large enough for the thickened end to pass through. The movable buckle is movably connected to the outlet side of the insertion channel. The movable buckle is interference-fitted with the outlet of the insertion channel. The edge of the outlet has a first notch, and the edge of the movable buckle has a second notch that matches the first notch. The first and second notches together form a locking hole when the movable buckle is closed. The size of the locking hole does not allow the thickened end to pass through.

[0012] Preferably, the outer wall of the wristband is provided with a storage groove adapted to the shape of the clamping handle, the clamping handle can be detachably placed in the storage groove, and the outer wall of the clamping handle is provided with an arc surface that matches the curvature of the outer wall of the wristband; when the clamping handle is placed in the storage groove, the clamping handle is flush with the outer wall of the wristband.

[0013] Compared with existing technologies, the elastic band assembly for functional rehabilitation exercises for elderly patients, which adopts the above-mentioned technical solution, has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. The wristband, similar to a bracelet, can be worn directly on the patient's wrist. Multiple elastic bands are coiled and stored within the wristband, allowing the patient to carry it anytime, anywhere. When exercise is needed, one or more elastic bands can be pulled out with the other hand and locked after being pulled to the desired length. This facilitates elastic band resistance training and makes controlling the resistance level simpler and more convenient. The elastic bands automatically retract into the wristband under the action of the rebound core. It has the advantages of being easy to store and use.

[0015] Second, the wristband can securely fix the wristband on the wrist, preventing it from rotating or slipping, ensuring wearing comfort, and also ensuring stability when pulling the elastic band during training.

[0016] Third, a cardiovascular function monitoring module is installed on the inner side of the wristband. A MAX30102 heart rate and blood oxygen sensor module can be selected. As the wristband wraps around the arm, the sensitive element of the cardiovascular function monitoring module contacts the wrist artery. During training, the patient's heart rate and blood oxygen function physiological indicators are monitored in real time, providing doctors / rehabilitation therapists with a scientific basis for evaluating and adjusting training methods and intensity.

[0017] Fourth, the clamping handle can assist patients in conducting safer and more comfortable training. When in use, the clamping handle is connected to and holds the required elastic band. Patients can hold the clamping handle for tension training, effectively preventing the elastic band from slipping out of their hands during training and distributing pressure on the hand, thus improving comfort. In the preferred embodiment, the clamping handle can be embedded and stored in the wristband, making storage and retrieval of the clamping handle more convenient, while ensuring the integrity of the wristband.
