[0022] To provide a better understanding of the purpose, structure, features, and functions of this utility model, detailed descriptions are provided below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0023] Please refer to the reference. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 An embodiment of this utility model provides an auxiliary lying position device after retinal detachment surgery, comprising a table panel 1, a support rod 2, a support sleeve 5, a base 6, a lifting structure 3, and a support structure 4. The table panel 1 includes a face pad 11 with a T-shaped hole 15 in the middle. An airbag 12 is fixed to the inner circumference of the T-shaped hole 15. A horizontal frame 41 of the support structure 4 is fixed to the bottom surface of the table panel 1. A vertical frame 42 of the support structure 4 is fixed to the side of the support rod 2. One end of the horizontal frame 41 and one end of the vertical frame 42 are rotatably connected. The lifting structure 3 is disposed inside the support sleeve 5. The support rod 2 extends into the support sleeve 5. A lifting seat 21 is connected to the bottom of the support rod 2. The lifting seat 21 is threaded onto the lead screw 32 of the lifting structure 3. The base 6 is fixed to the bottom of the support sleeve 5.

[0024] The T-shaped hole 15 exposes the patient's eyes, mouth, and nose, facilitating breathing and eating, and preventing pressure on the eyes that could affect recovery. After the airbag 12 is inflated, the area exposed to the mouth and nose becomes smaller, making it suitable for different patients. The support structure 4 keeps the table panel 1 perpendicular to the support rod 2, allowing the patient to maintain a face-down posture. The lifting structure 3 is used to adjust the height.

[0025] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the table panel 1 is provided with handles 14 on both the left and right sides. The airbag 12 is provided with an inflation port 13 at the bottom, and the inflation port 13 is provided with a sealing cap. The table panel 1 is provided with a first slot 16. The shape and size of the slot 16 match the face pad 11. The bottom of the first slot 16 is provided with a first through hole 17. The first through hole 17 is concentric with the T-shaped hole 15 and has the same shape. The diameter of the first through hole 17 is smaller than the diameter of the T-shaped hole 15. The handles 14 are convenient for patients to grasp when moving. The first slot 16 can fix the face pad 11 and also provide support for the airbag 12.

[0026] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the support structure 4 includes a horizontal frame 41, a vertical frame 42, and a support bar 45. One end of the support bar 45 is rotatably connected to the middle of the vertical frame 42, and the other end of the support bar 45 is equipped with a guide post 46 that slides in a limiting hole 44. The limiting hole 44 is located at the end of the horizontal frame 41 along the length of the horizontal frame 41. The limiting hole 44 is elongated and is used to restrict the guide post 46 so that it can only move back and forth.

[0027] In one embodiment, such as Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, a fixed shaft 47 is fixedly installed on the horizontal frame 41. The fixed shaft 47 passes through the middle of the buckle 43. The buckle 43 rotates around the fixed shaft 47. One end of the buckle 43 is provided with a second slot 49. A torsion spring 48 is sleeved on the fixed shaft 47. One end of the torsion spring 48 is inserted into the horizontal frame 41, and the other end of the torsion spring 48 is inserted into the buckle 43. When unlocking, the buckle 43 is pushed upward away from the end of the slot 49, compressing the torsion spring 48, so that the buckle 43 is disengaged from the guide post 46. The second slot 49 includes an arc-shaped guide section and a semi-circular locking section. The guide post 46 is guided into the locking section through the guide section to increase the locking ability.

[0028] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the lifting structure 3 includes a lead screw 32, a driven bevel gear 36, a driving bevel gear 35, and a rotating shaft 34. The rotating shaft 34 passes through the driving bevel gear 35, and both ends of the driving bevel gear 35 extend to the outside of the support sleeve 5. The driven bevel gear 36 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the lead screw 32. The driving bevel gear 35 and the driven bevel gear 36 cooperate with each other. A hexagonal groove 33 is provided at one end of the rotating shaft 34. A matching hexagonal crank 31 is movably provided in the hexagonal groove 33. Rotating the hexagonal crank 31 causes the rotating shaft 34 to rotate, and the driving bevel gear 35 rotates with the rotating shaft 34, while simultaneously driving the driven bevel gear 36 to rotate, thereby realizing the lifting of the lifting seat 21.

[0029] In one embodiment, such as Figure 6 As shown, the support sleeve 5 has a second through hole 51 on its side wall, and a rotating shaft 34 is inserted into the second through hole 51. The diameter of the second through hole 51 is equal to the outer diameter of the rotating shaft 34.

[0030] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the base 6 is equipped with universal wheels 61 at all four corners of its bottom for easy movement and fixation.

[0031] In one embodiment, the face pad 11 is filled with silicone or sponge to increase comfort, and the surface of the face pad 11 is covered with cotton cloth, which is removable, washable and replaceable, clean and hygienic, and can prevent infection.

[0032] Usage: Combine Figures 1-8 As shown, lift the table panel 1 upwards, and slide the guide post 46 forward along the limiting hole 44. After the table panel 1 is perpendicular to the support rod 2, press down the buckle 43 to lock the support structure 4. Rotate the hexagonal crank 31 to make the rotating shaft 34 rotate. The active bevel gear 35 follows the rotating shaft 34 and drives the driven bevel gear 36 to rotate, thereby realizing the lifting of the lifting seat 21 and inflating the airbag 12 to reduce the area of ​​the hollow part in the middle, which is suitable for different patients.

[0033] This utility model has been described by the above-described embodiments; however, these embodiments are merely examples for implementing this utility model. It must be noted that the disclosed embodiments do not limit the scope of this utility model. Conversely, any modifications and refinements made without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model are within the scope of patent protection of this utility model.
