Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical rehabilitation equipment technology, and in particular to a physiotherapy arm sleeve. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of medical rehabilitation equipment, patients with arm injuries or after surgery require effective immobilization measures to promote recovery. Traditionally, plaster casts are used for immobilization. While this method ensures stability, its bulkiness, lack of breathability, and difficulty in cleaning cause significant inconvenience to patients' daily lives. In recent years, with advancements in materials science and technology, various new types of protective gear have emerged on the market. These gears not only provide better immobilization but also prioritize comfort and convenience. The application of these new technologies has significantly improved patients' rehabilitation experience and quality of life.

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, existing technologies offer several common solutions. First is plaster cast immobilization, which involves applying liquid plaster to the affected area and allowing it to dry to form a strong outer shell to immobilize the wound. Second is a plastic splint, made of lightweight plastic, which can be secured to the arm with straps. Third is an elastic bandage, which offers good elasticity and breathability and can be easily wrapped around the arm. Each of these three methods has its own characteristics and is suitable for different types of arm injuries. Plaster cast immobilization is widely used in severe fracture cases due to its strong protective effect; plastic splints are favored by many doctors and patients due to their lightweight and adjustable advantages; and elastic bandages are the preferred tool for minor injuries due to their comfortable wear and easy removal.

[0004] While the methods described above have addressed the issue of arm injury or postoperative immobilization to some extent, they still have significant limitations. Plaster casts offer the best immobilization, but their weight, poor breathability, and inconvenience in daily activities and cleaning severely impact patients' quality of life. Plastic splints, though lightweight and adjustable, lack in terms of fixation strength and comfort, and prolonged wear may cause skin discomfort. Elastic bandages, due to their limited immobilization effectiveness, cannot be used for treating severe injuries. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an arm support device that provides both excellent immobilization and comfort and convenience. Utility Model Content

[0031] This utility model discloses a physiotherapy arm sleeve, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes a main body 1 and a fixing part 2. When worn, the main body 1 can be evenly distributed on the arm to avoid local tightness or looseness. This is achieved by reasonably designing the thickness and elastic modulus of the composite fabric 11. The fixing part 2 has anti-abrasion edges to prevent skin abrasion. The anti-abrasion edges can be made of soft silicone strips or TPU film wrapped around the edges, which can not only increase the flexibility of the edges, but also effectively prevent skin damage caused by long-term friction.

[0032] The main body 1 is made of composite fabric 11 containing 100% neoprene rubber, with an inner lining 12 made of skin-friendly material with hypoallergenic properties. For example, natural fiber materials such as pure cotton, bamboo fiber, or linen can be selected, as these materials have excellent moisture-wicking properties, keeping the skin dry and reducing bacterial growth. The outer surface of the main body 1 is coated with an antibacterial coating to prevent bacteria from adhering to the composite fabric 11. The antibacterial coating can be made of nano-silver ion coating or organic antibacterial agents, which have long-lasting bactericidal effects and can form a barrier on the surface of the arm sleeve to prevent the invasion of germs. In addition, the antibacterial coating can also give the composite fabric 11 additional functions, such as self-cleaning properties or UV protection, further enhancing the overall performance of the product.

[0033] The fixation part 2 includes a highly waterproof nylon stretcher material 21 and Velcro straps 22. The preferred composition ratio of the highly waterproof nylon stretcher material 21 is 88% nylon and 12% spandex. This material not only possesses high strength and durability but also effectively prevents moisture penetration, extending the lifespan of the arm sleeve in humid environments. The length of the Velcro straps 22 can be cut to fit different patients' arm sizes, achieving optimal fixation. The fixation part 2 also features ventilation holes 3 to increase airflow. These ventilation holes 3 can be distributed in key areas of the fixation part 2, such as near the wrist and elbow, to promote air circulation and reduce sweat buildup. The shape and size of the ventilation holes 3 can be adjusted according to actual needs, such as round, oval, or diamond shapes, to optimize ventilation. The fixing part 2 is internally equipped with an elastic reinforcing band 4 to enhance the stability of the fixation. The elastic reinforcing band 4 is arranged around the circumference of the arm and can be made of high-strength spandex or nylon yarn. These materials have excellent resilience and fatigue resistance, and can maintain a stable fixation effect during long-term wear. The layout of the elastic reinforcing band 4 can be flexibly adjusted, for example, increasing the density at key load-bearing points or appropriately sparsening it in areas where muscles are relatively relaxed, to achieve the best support effect. The fixing part 2 is provided with a connecting buckle 5 at its end, and the main body 1 is provided with a hole 6 at the corresponding position. The connecting buckle 5 mates with the hole 6 to achieve a detachable connection, further fixing the arm protector to the arm.

[0034] Working Principle: This utility model designs a therapeutic arm sleeve. When the user wears the arm sleeve, the main body 1 first wraps around the arm, and then the tightness is adjusted using the Velcro straps 22 on the fixing part 2 to ensure the arm sleeve fits snugly against the arm surface. The neoprene rubber main body 1 not only provides excellent warmth but also effectively relieves muscle fatigue and reduces pain. Meanwhile, the fixing part 2, made of highly waterproof nylon stretch material 21, ensures the arm sleeve maintains good stability even in humid environments, preventing slippage due to sweat or other moisture. The Velcro design also allows users to adjust the tightness according to their needs, increasing flexibility and comfort.

[0035] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
