Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical stent technology, and in particular to an ear protection device. Background Technology

[0002] Since Tanzer pioneered modern ear reconstruction techniques in the 1950s, ear reconstruction surgery has undergone continuous development. Currently, the main materials used in clinical ear reconstruction are divided into two categories: autologous rib cartilage scaffolds and high-density porous polyethylene artificial material scaffolds. Ear reconstruction surgery involves placing the scaffold in the desired location and allowing it to grow and fuse with the skin. After surgery, the auricle is still relatively fragile. To prevent deformation of the cartilage scaffold or artificial material scaffold, it is necessary to prevent external forces on the ear after surgery. This means avoiding pressure during the first three months, such as during sleep or exercise. In addition to preventing pressure, it is also necessary to prevent trauma, as the rib cartilage scaffold needs more than three months to grow and fuse firmly with the skin.

[0003] Currently, the most commonly used material for fixation after ear surgery is the earmuff. This material has a single function: simply covering the ear after surgery. It does not provide ear fixation and is insufficient to support the special care needs after some complex ear surgeries. Specialized clamps can also be used for fixation after ear surgery. However, while these clamps offer some support, the clamping force is not adjustable. Excessive clamping force can easily damage the skin of the reconstructed ear, leading to infection and increasing the risk of ear reconstruction failure. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an ear protection component to address the issues that existing postoperative fixation materials for the ear do not provide support and fixation, and that the excessive clamping force of special clamps can easily cause damage and infection to the skin of the reconstructed ear, increasing the risk of ear reconstruction failure.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] An ear protector includes: a main body and a round hook portion;

[0007] The main body is positioned between the back of the patient's ear and the skin of the skull to support the ear and prevent it from collapsing or deforming after surgery.

[0008] The round hook is attached to the patient's ear for auxiliary fixation and protection.

[0009] Furthermore, the ear protector also includes: a fixing adhesive patch; the fixing adhesive patch is used to attach the ear protector to the patient's skin.

[0010] Furthermore, the fixing adhesive is specifically medical double-sided adhesive.

[0011] Furthermore, the ear protector also includes a flexible metal frame; the flexible metal frame is disposed inside the ear protector, and the flexible metal frame is deformable to adjust the arc angle between the hook portion and the main body portion.

[0012] Furthermore, the ear protector includes various models, and different models of ear protectors have different cranioauricular support angles.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0014] (1) In this utility model, the main body is set between the back of the patient's ear and the skin of the skull to support the ear and prevent the ear from collapsing and deforming after surgery. The round hook is hung on the patient's ear for auxiliary fixation and protection. In the process of protecting the reconstructed ear, the supporting method is adopted, and no additional clamping force, traction force or other external force is applied to the reconstructed ear, so as to avoid damage and infection of the skin and structure of the reconstructed ear by external force, and enhance the protective effect of the reconstructed ear.

[0020] As shown in the figure, specific structures and devices are marked in the figure to clearly illustrate the structure of the embodiment of this utility model. However, this is only for illustrative purposes and is not intended to limit this utility model to this specific structure, device and environment. Those skilled in the art can adjust or modify these devices and environments according to specific needs. Detailed Implementation

[0021] The ear protector provided by this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should also be noted that, in order to make the embodiments more detailed, the following embodiments are the best and preferred embodiments, and those skilled in the art can also use other alternative methods to implement some known technologies; moreover, the accompanying drawings are only for more specific description of the embodiments and are not intended to specifically limit this utility model.

[0022] It should be noted that the use of terms such as "an embodiment," "an embodiment," "an exemplary embodiment," and "some embodiments" in the specification indicates that the described embodiment may include a specific feature, structure, or characteristic, but not every embodiment necessarily includes that specific feature, structure, or characteristic. Furthermore, when a specific feature, structure, or characteristic is described in connection with an embodiment, implementing such a feature, structure, or characteristic in conjunction with other embodiments (whether explicitly described or not) should be within the knowledge of those skilled in the art.

[0023] Generally, terms can be understood at least partly from their use in context. For example, depending at least partly on the context, the term "one or more" as used herein can be used to describe any feature, structure, or characteristic in a singular sense, or a combination of features, structures, or characteristics in a plural sense. Additionally, the term "based on" can be understood not necessarily to convey an exclusive set of factors, but rather, alternatively, depending at least partly on the context, to allow for the presence of other factors that are not necessarily explicitly described.

[0024] It is understood that the meanings of “on”, “above”, and “above” in this utility model should be interpreted in the broadest manner, such that “on” not only means “directly on” something, but also includes something with an intervening feature or layer, and that “above” or “above” not only means “on” something, but also includes something “above” something without an intervening feature or layer.

[0025] Furthermore, spatially related terms such as “below,” “under,” “lower,” “above,” and “upper” are used herein for convenience to describe the relationship of one element or feature to one or more other elements or features, as illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Spatially related terms are intended to cover different orientations in the use or operation of the device other than those depicted in the accompanying drawings. The device may be oriented in other ways, and the spatially related descriptive terms used herein can be interpreted similarly.

[0026] like Figure 1 and 2As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides an ear protection device, including: a main body 1 and a round hook 2; the main body 1 is disposed between the back of the patient's ear and the skin of the skull, supporting the ear and preventing postoperative ear collapse and deformation; the main body 1 can lift and support the reconstructed ear, maintaining the stability of the cranioauricular angle of the reconstructed ear, and avoiding local forces caused by skin scar hyperplasia or external forces during the fusion and growth of the reconstructed ear's skin and the internal cartilage framework, which could cause traction or compression on the internal cartilage framework, changing the angle of the cranioauricular angle, or even causing the internal cartilage framework of the reconstructed ear to collapse. The round hook 2 is hung on the patient's ear for auxiliary fixation and protection. The round hook 2 can hook onto the cranioauricular sulcus of the upper part of the ear, playing an auxiliary role in fixing the fan-shaped support part of the main body, so that the entire postoperative ear support device will not easily shift or flip during use.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0028] In this invention, the main body 1 is positioned between the back of the patient's ear and the skin of the skull to support the ear and prevent postoperative ear collapse and deformation. The round hook 2 is hung on the patient's ear for auxiliary fixation and protection. During the protection of the reconstructed ear, a lifting and support method is used, without applying additional clamping or traction forces to the reconstructed ear, thus avoiding damage and infection to the skin and structure of the reconstructed ear caused by external forces, and enhancing the protective effect on the reconstructed ear.

[0029] In one possible implementation, the ear protector further includes: a fixing adhesive patch 3; the fixing adhesive patch 3 is used to attach the ear protector to the patient's skin.

[0030] In this invention, the ear protector is attached and fixed to the skull skin by the fixing adhesive 3, so that the ear protector can be continuously and stably attached and fixed between the back of the ear and the skull, and the ear protector is prevented from shifting or flipping.

[0031] In one possible implementation, the fixing adhesive 3 is specifically medical double-sided adhesive.

[0032] In this invention, medical double-sided tape typically has low allergenicity and good biocompatibility, and is unlikely to cause irritation or discomfort to the patient's skin. It not only provides reliable stability and comfort, but also simplifies the usage process, reduces costs, and reduces pressure on the patient's skin and the risk of postoperative infection.

[0033] In one possible implementation, the ear protector further includes a flexible metal frame 4; the flexible metal frame 4 is disposed inside the ear protector, and the flexible metal frame 4 is deformable to adjust the arc angle between the hook portion 2 and the main body portion 1.

[0034] In this invention, the flexible metal skeleton 4 allows for personalized adjustment of the angle and curvature of the ear protection component based on the reconstructed ear data of different patients, achieving precise and personalized treatment.

[0035] In one possible implementation, the ear protector includes multiple models, with different models having different cranioauricular support angles.

[0036] In this invention, each patient's ear size, cranioauricular angle, and specific characteristics of the reconstructed ear may differ. Multiple cranioauricular angle models are provided to better accommodate individual patient differences. By selecting a suitable cranioauricular angle model, it is ensured that the protective component fits the patient's ear structure more closely, avoiding discomfort or unstable support caused by angle mismatch.

[0037] This utility model encompasses any substitutions, modifications, or equivalent methods and solutions made within the spirit and scope of this utility model. To ensure a thorough understanding of this utility model, specific details are described in detail in the preferred embodiments, while those skilled in the art can fully understand this utility model without these details. Furthermore, to avoid unnecessary confusion regarding the essence of this utility model, well-known methods, processes, procedures, components, and circuits are not described in detail.

[0038] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
