Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of respiratory training auxiliary equipment technology, specifically to a respiratory training device for postoperative rehabilitation of thoracic surgery. Background Technology

[0002] When patients are cared for after thoracic surgery, they usually need to use a rehabilitation breathing trainer for regular breathing exercises to improve respiratory muscle strength, reduce the occurrence of postoperative complications, accelerate the recovery of lung function, and restore standard breathing function.

[0003] Patent document CN219072009U discloses a postoperative breathing training device for thoracic surgery. Through the structural design of the collection tube and the second outlet tube, the device allows the patient to adjust the relationship between the first and second valves after the balloon is collected, and expel the balloon through breathing training. This adds fun to the balloon expulsion process while allowing continued breathing exercises, further improving the device's practicality. The transparent detection panel and the first outlet tube allow the patient to visually observe the breathing training effect through the use of the impeller inside the transparent detection panel, enabling the development of a suitable training plan and enhancing the device's usability.

[0004] The existing technology has the following problems:

[0005] When patients undergo breathing training using the aforementioned breathing training device, they need to hold the inflator with their hand and aim it at their mouth. Furthermore, patients need to hold the inflator for an extended period during the inhalation process. Since patients are relatively weak after surgery, this method of operation will obviously place a physical burden on them, causing pain in the surgical area. In addition, the breathing training lacks a gradual training process and cannot reasonably adjust the patient's breathing training accordingly. Utility Model Content

[0028] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0029] like Figures 1-7 As shown, a postoperative respiratory training device for thoracic surgery includes a T-shaped support 1. A fixing component 2 is fixedly installed on the left side of the lower top surface of the support 1. A respiratory training component 4 is fixedly installed on the right side of the upper top surface of the support 1. Two Z-shaped supports 5 are fixedly installed on the right side of the upper top surface of the support 1. A rib plate 3 is fixedly installed between the right side of the fixing component 2 and the right side of the lower top surface of the support 1. The respiratory training component 4 includes a support 41. The lower surface of the support 41 is fixedly installed to the right side of the upper top surface of the support 1, and the support 41 is located between the two supports 5. An air duct 43 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the support 41. A flexible tube 45 is fixedly installed at the front end of the air duct 43. An exhalation mask 46 is fixedly installed at the front end of the flexible tube 45. An adjustment component 47 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the rear of the exhalation mask 46. A connecting tube 44 is fixedly installed on the upper part of the outer side of the air duct 43. The upper end of the connecting tube 44... A training tube 42 is fixedly installed. An adjustment component 48 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the training tube 42. An air outlet tube 49 is fixedly installed on the lower left side of the training tube 42. The training tube 42 is connected to the air outlet tube 49, the connecting tube 44, the air guide tube 43, the hose 45, and the exhalation mask 46. The upper surfaces of the tops of the two supports 5 are fixedly installed to the left and right sides of the lower surface of the training tube 42, respectively. The adjustment component 48 includes an adjustment plate 484 and an adjustment plate 483. The outer sides of the adjustment plate 484 and the adjustment plate 483 are slidably connected to the inner cavity of the training tube 42. A spring 485 is fixedly installed between the opposite sides of the adjustment plate 483 and the adjustment plate 484. The fixing component 2 includes a fixing block 21. The upper surface of the top of the fixing block 21 is fixedly installed to the left side of the lower surface of the top of the support 1. The top of the inner side of the fixing block 21 is arched. A limit plate 22 is provided between the opposite sides of the fixing block 21. The front and rear sides of the limit plate 22 are arc-shaped.

[0030] When performing respiratory rehabilitation training after thoracic surgery, the opening of the fixation block 21 is secured to the side rail of the bed, and the limiting plate 22 is inserted into the opposite side of the fixation block 21, so that the limiting plate 22 is pressed against the lower side of the rail. This fixes the device to the bed, facilitating respiratory training. The angle of the exhalation mask 46 is adjusted by adjusting component 47 so that the exhalation mask 46 is aligned with the patient's mouth, making it easier for the patient to perform respiratory rehabilitation training in bed. This frees the patient's hands, reducing pain in the surgical area caused by hand movements. During training, the solenoid valve on the connecting tube 44 is opened, connecting the exhalation mask 46, hose 45, airway 43, connecting tube 44, and training tube 42. The patient then uses the exhalation mask 46 to breathe into the hose 45, connecting tube 44, and training tube 42. Breathing rehabilitation training is performed through tube 42. During the exhalation process into training tube 42, the gas passes sequentially through exhalation mask 46, tubing 45, air delivery tube 43, and connecting tube 44 into training tube 42. As the gas enters, adjustment plate 2 484 moves upward under air pressure and compresses spring 485, connecting the outlet tube 49 with the cavity below adjustment plate 2 484. At this time, the gas is exhaled smoothly. When it is necessary to increase the intensity of the patient's breathing training, the distance between adjustment plate 1 483 and adjustment plate 2 484 is increased, so that the patient needs to rely on a greater airflow to perform breathing training. This is beneficial for respiratory rehabilitation training of patients after thoracic surgery and also allows for the adjustment of breathing intensity, thus providing a gradual adjustment process for the patient's entire respiratory rehabilitation training.

[0031] like Figure 2 , Figure 6 As shown, a filter screen 410 is fixedly installed at the left end of the air outlet pipe 49.

[0032] By setting up the filter screen 410, the air outlet pipe 49 can be protected from dust, preventing dust from entering the training tube 42.

[0033] like Figure 6 As shown, an electric actuator 481 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the training tube 42. The output end of the electric actuator 481 passes through the training tube 42 and is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the adjustment plate 483.

[0034] By pushing the adjustment plate 483 upward with the electric actuator 481, the distance between the adjustment plate 483 and the adjustment plate 484 is increased, so that the patient needs to rely on a greater airflow to carry out breathing training. This is beneficial for respiratory rehabilitation training for patients after thoracic surgery. At the same time, it can also adjust the breathing intensity, thus providing a gradual adjustment process for the patient's entire respiratory rehabilitation training.

[0035] like Figure 2 , Figure 6As shown, slide rods 482 are fixedly installed on the left and right sides of the upper and lower surfaces of the inner cavity of the training tube 42. The inner cavities on both sides of the adjustment plate 2 484 and the adjustment plate 1 483 are slidably connected to the outer side of the middle part of the two slide rods 482 respectively.

[0036] By setting the slide bar 482, the movement of the first adjustment plate 483 and the second adjustment plate 484 can be guided, so that they slide stably within the training tube 42.

[0037] like Figure 2 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the adjustment assembly 47 includes a fixing sleeve 471. The inner wall of the fixing sleeve 471 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the rear side of the exhalation mask 46. An electric push rod 473 is rotatably connected to the opposite side of the bottom of the fixing sleeve 471. A hinge seat 472 is rotatably connected to the fixed end of the electric push rod 473. The rear side of the hinge seat 472 is fixedly installed on the upper right side of the front side of the bracket 1.

[0038] The electric actuator 473 pushes the fixed sleeve 471 to rotate, thereby pushing the exhalation mask 46 to rotate and adjusting the angle of the exhalation mask 46 so that the exhalation mask 46 can be aligned with the patient's mouth, so that the patient can more conveniently carry out respiratory rehabilitation training in bed.

[0039] like Figures 3-5 As shown, T-shaped inserts 26 are fixedly installed on both the left and right sides of the limiting plate 22, and T-shaped slots 24 are opened on the opposite sides of the fixing block 21. The inner cavity of the T-shaped slot 24 is inserted into the outer side of the T-shaped insert 26. A threaded hole 25 is opened on the left side of the fixing block 21, and the right end of the threaded hole 25 extends to the right side wall of the fixing block 21. A wing bolt 23 passing through the T-shaped insert 26 and the limiting plate 22 is threaded into the inner cavity of the threaded hole 25.

[0040] The opening of the fixing block 21 is secured to the side rail of the hospital bed, and the T-shaped insert 26 is inserted into the T-shaped slot 24 so that the limiting plate 22 is pressed against the lower side of the rail. The butterfly bolt 23 is tightened to lock and fix the T-shaped insert 26, the limiting plate 22, and the fixing block 21, thereby fixing the device to the hospital bed. This makes it convenient for the patient to perform breathing training. The patient only needs to place their mouth on the exhalation mask 46 to perform breathing training, which frees the patient's hands and reduces chest pain caused by hand movements.

[0041] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When a patient undergoes respiratory rehabilitation training after thoracic surgery, the opening of the fixing block 21 is secured to the side rail of the bed. Then, the T-shaped insert 26 is inserted into the T-shaped slot 24, causing the limiting plate 22 to press against the lower side of the rail. The butterfly bolt 23 is tightened to fix the T-shaped insert 26, the limiting plate 22, and the fixing block 21, thus fixing the device to the bed for easy respiratory training. The electric actuator 473 pushes the fixing sleeve 471 to rotate, thereby rotating the exhalation mask 46 and adjusting its angle so that it is aligned with the patient's mouth. This allows for more convenient respiratory rehabilitation training while in bed, freeing the patient's hands and reducing pain in the surgical area caused by hand movements. During training, the solenoid valve on the connecting tube 44 is opened, connecting the exhalation mask 46, hose 45, airway 43, connecting tube 44, and training tube 42. The patient exhales through the exhalation mask 46 into the tubing 45, connecting tube 44, and training tube 42 for respiratory rehabilitation training. During the exhalation into the training tube 42, the gas passes sequentially through the exhalation mask 46, tubing 45, air delivery tube 43, and connecting tube 44 into the training tube 42. As the gas enters, the second adjustment plate 484 is subjected to air pressure and moves upward, compressing the spring 485, thus connecting the outlet tube 49 with the cavity below the second adjustment plate 484. At this time, the gas is exhaled smoothly. When it is necessary to increase the intensity of the patient's respiratory training, the second electric push rod 481 pushes the first adjustment plate 483 upward, increasing the distance between the first adjustment plate 483 and the second adjustment plate 484. This requires the patient to rely on a larger airflow to perform respiratory training, which is beneficial for respiratory rehabilitation training of patients after thoracic surgery. At the same time, it also allows for the adjustment of respiratory intensity, thus providing a gradual adjustment process for the patient's entire respiratory rehabilitation training.

[0042] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
