[0022] 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 scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0023] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-5 This application will be described in further detail.

[0024] This application discloses an exercise device for Parkinson's disease patients. (See also...) Figure 1 and Figure 3 An exercise device for Parkinson's patients includes a horizontal plate 1, a vertical plate 2 fixedly connected to the top right side of the horizontal plate 1, a sliding hole 3 on one side of the vertical plate 2, an adjustment mechanism 4 threadedly connected to the top front side of the horizontal plate 1, and a limit mechanism 6 fixedly connected to the bottom and front side of the right side of the vertical plate 2.

[0025] The limiting mechanism 6 includes a horizontal bar 601. One end of the horizontal bar 601 is fixedly connected to one side of the vertical plate 2. A guide wheel 602 is fixedly connected to the right side of the surface of the horizontal bar 601. A first limiting rope 603 is movably connected to the surface of the guide wheel 602. A second pull block 605 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first limiting rope 603. A second limiting rope 606 is fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the second pull block 605. An insert rod 607 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the opposite side of the second limiting rope 606.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The adjusting mechanism 4 includes a lead screw 404. The surface of the lead screw 404 is threaded to the inner wall of the horizontal plate 1. One end of the lead screw 404 extends through to the bottom of the horizontal plate 1, and the top of the lead screw 404 extends through the top of the horizontal plate 1 and is movably connected to the first support plate 402 through a bearing. By setting the lead screw 404, the user can rotate the lead screw 404 through the handwheel 405. When the lead screw 404 rotates, it will drive the first support plate 402 to move, which makes it more convenient.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The top of the first support plate 402 is bonded with a first buffer cotton 403. The four corners of the bottom of the first support plate 402 are fixedly connected with limit rods 401. The surfaces of the limit rods 401 are movably connected to the inner wall of the horizontal plate 1. The bottom of the screw 404 is welded with a handwheel 405. By setting the limit rods 401, the tilting phenomenon of the first support plate 402 during movement can be avoided, thus making it safer.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The first limit rope 603 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the first pull block 604. The interior of the first pull block 604 is movably connected to the right side of the surface of the handle 9. The top side of the horizontal plate 1 is fixedly connected to the box 5. The box 5 has a second sliding groove on both sides. By setting the box 5, when the user stops using the device, the first counterweight 501, the second counterweight 502 and the third counterweight 503 will return to the box 5, thus avoiding the loss of the counterweight.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The bottom of the inner cavity of the box body 5 is provided with a first counterweight 501. The top of the first counterweight 501 is provided with a first groove 504. The bottom of the inner cavity of the first groove 504 is provided with a second counterweight 502. The top of the second counterweight 502 is provided with a second groove 505. The bottom of the inner cavity of the second groove 505 is provided with a third counterweight 503. Slots 506 are provided on both sides of the first counterweight 501, the second counterweight 502 and the third counterweight 503. The insertion rod 607 is movably connected to the slots 506. By setting the first counterweight 501, the second counterweight 502 and the third counterweight 503, the counterweights can be adjusted according to the user's physical condition, thereby improving the practicality of the device.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 A spring 22 is fixedly connected to the top left side of the horizontal plate 1. A shock-absorbing plate 28 is fixedly connected to the top of the spring 22. A damper 23 is fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the shock-absorbing plate 28. The bottom of the damper 23 passes through the spring 22 and is fixedly connected to the horizontal plate 1. A protective plate 24 is fixedly connected to the top of the shock-absorbing plate 28. A second support plate 25 is fixedly connected to the top of the protective plate 24. A second cushioning cotton 26 is glued to the top of the second support plate 25. By setting the second cushioning cotton 26, the spring 22 and the damper 23, the user's arm can be protected, and the user's arm can be prevented from being injured due to weakness during the use of the device.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The top of the inner cavity of the sliding hole 3 is provided with a first sliding groove 29. A slider 7 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the first sliding groove 29. A rotating shaft 8 is fixedly connected inside the slider 7. A grip 9 is fixedly connected through the rotating shaft 8. By setting the slider 7, the slider 7 will slide in the first sliding groove 29 during the movement, which can prevent the grip 9 from tilting during the movement and prevent the grip 9 from tilting and causing injury to the patient.

[0032] Working principle: The user places their arm on the first cushioning cotton 403 on top of the first support plate 402 and holds the handle on the surface of the grip bar 9. When the user's arm is suspended in the air, the user can rotate the handwheel 405 at the bottom of the horizontal plate 1. The handwheel 405 will drive the lead screw 404 to rotate, which will drive the top first support plate 402 to move upward. At the same time, the limiting rods 401 at the four corners of the bottom of the first support plate 402 will move upward to guide the first support plate 402 and prevent it from tilting during the upward movement. When the first support plate 402 moves to a position that can support the user's arm, the user can stop rotating the handwheel 405. The user can then adjust the counterweight using their own strength. If the user's arm strength is weak, the user can insert the insertion rod 607 into the third counterweight 5. In the slots 506 on both sides of 03, when the user grips the handle 9 and pulls it backward, the slider 7 on the surface of the handle 9 will slide in the first groove 29. The slider 7 can guide the handle 9 and prevent it from deviating when moving. When the handle 9 moves, it will drive the first limiting rope 603 to move. The first limiting rope 603 will drive the second limiting rope 606 to move upward. The second limiting rope 606 will drive the third counterweight 503 to move upward. If the user is physically exhausted and cannot control the force, causing the arm to droop, the arm will first contact the second support plate 25. The second cushioning cotton 26 on the top of the second support plate 25 will provide cushioning protection for the user. After being subjected to pressure, the second support plate 25 will move downward. The second support plate 25 will apply downward pressure to the spring 22. The spring 22 and the damper 23 will relieve the pressure, thereby protecting the user's arm.

[0033] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
