Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of medical auxiliary device technology, specifically an orthopedic joint hanger for clinical use in orthopedics. Background Technology
[0002] After a fracture occurs in a part of the body, the patient needs to go to the hospital for treatment. In the orthopedic department of the hospital, the fractured part is corrected through surgery, and a cast, fixation plate or traction fixation is applied to the outside of the patient's body. At the same time, after the bone and joint are treated, a sling is needed to lift the fractured part to prevent blood from flowing back and accumulating, which could lead to muscle necrosis at the fracture site.
[0003] The conventional orthopedic leg slings used in clinical practice usually consist of slings or cloth covers that are suspended from the horizontal bar above the bed (headboard traction frame). They can lift the lower leg or heel, so that the entire leg is in an elevated and suspended state. They are mainly used for elevation and mild fixation and are suitable for lower limb fractures (such as tibia and fibula fractures, ankle fractures), knee or ankle surgery, and severe soft tissue injuries.
[0004] During the process of suspending a patient's fractured area, the suspension height needs to be adjusted according to the location of the fracture. Furthermore, keeping the leg suspended in the same position for a long time is not conducive to the recovery of the condition. Conventional orthopedic leg suspenders are not convenient for adjustment and posture adjustment. Based on this, an orthopedic joint suspender for clinical use in orthopedics is provided.

[0032] 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 protection scope of the present utility model.
[0033] Please see Figures 1-5In this embodiment of the present invention, an orthopedic joint suspension for clinical use in orthopedics includes a suspension assembly 2 installed on both sides of a nursing bed 1 and extending above the nursing bed 1. The suspension assembly 2 includes a lateral adjustment unit, a longitudinal adjustment unit, and a suspension unit.
[0034] The lateral adjustment unit is used to provide support for the longitudinal adjustment unit and the suspension unit, and at the same time realizes the horizontal lateral adjustment operation of the suspension unit;
[0035] The longitudinal adjustment unit is used to realize the longitudinal adjustment operation of the suspension unit;
[0036] The suspension unit is used to suspend the patient's lower leg at different heights;
[0037] The lateral adjustment unit includes a lateral electric slide table 201, a guide rod 202, a limiting slide block 203, and a gantry frame 204;
[0038] The transverse electric slide 201 and guide rod 202 are fixedly installed on both sides of the nursing bed 1 and near the foot of the nursing bed 1.
[0039] The limiting slide 203 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 202, and the two bottom ends of the gantry frame 204 are respectively fixed to the slide of the transverse electric slide table 201 and the top of the limiting slide 203;
[0040] The horizontal electric slide 201 is used to realize the horizontal lateral movement of the gantry 204;
[0041] The longitudinal adjustment unit includes a longitudinal electric slide table 205 and a longitudinal slide block 206;
[0042] There are two longitudinal electric slides 205, which are symmetrically fixedly installed on the top of the cross arm of the gantry frame 204.
[0043] There are two longitudinal slide blocks 206. The two longitudinal slide blocks 206 are respectively slidably sleeved on the outer side of the housing of the two longitudinal electric slide tables 205, and the longitudinal slide blocks 206 are slidably sleeved with the cross arm of the gantry frame 204.
[0044] The slide of the longitudinal electric slide 205 is fixed to the side of the longitudinal slide 206, and the longitudinal electric slide 205 is used to realize the longitudinal movement of the longitudinal slide 206.
[0045] The suspension unit includes a worm gear reducer motor 208, a winding shaft 209, a sling 210, a connecting block 211, an I-beam pulley 212, and a V-shaped suspension plate 213;
[0046] The longitudinal slide 206 has a winding slot 207 on the end face of the part protruding below the gantry frame 204. The worm gear reducer motor 208 is installed on one side of the outer wall of the longitudinal slide 206. The winding shaft 209 is rotatably connected to the inside of the winding slot 207 and passes through the longitudinal slide 206 and is fixedly connected to the output end of the worm gear reducer motor 208.
[0047] The I-shaped pulley 212 is rotatably connected to the top of the V-shaped hanging plate 213 via a connecting lug. One end of the sling 210 is tied and fixed to the outer wall of the winding shaft 209. The other end of the sling 210 passes under the I-shaped pulley 212 and extends upwards, and is fixedly connected to the longitudinal slide block 206 via a connecting block 211. The sling 210 is in a U-shaped state. The suspension operation of the V-shaped hanging plate 213 is achieved through the sling 210.
[0048] The V-shaped suspension plate 213 is fitted onto the bottom of the patient's lower leg, and the worm gear reducer motor 208 is activated to rewind the sling 210, thereby lifting and suspending the patient's lower leg.
[0049] The inner diameter of the V-shaped hanging plate 213 increases from bottom to top, and a polyurethane sponge block 214 is bonded and fixed to the inner side of the V-shaped hanging plate 213.
[0050] In this embodiment, it should be noted that the height of the V-shaped suspension plate 213 is greater than the height of the patient's foot. Thus, during the process of passing the V-shaped suspension plate 213 through the patient's foot and fitting it onto the patient's lower leg, the patient's foot will not come into contact with or collide with the I-shaped pulley 212. In addition, the polyurethane foam block 214 is made of medical-grade polyurethane foam block, which has breathability, elasticity, and support. Through the contact between the polyurethane foam block 214 and the patient's leg, a good sense of support can be maintained.
[0051] The operating procedure for this hanger assembly 2 is as follows:
[0052] By activating the transverse electric slide 201, the horizontal movement of the gantry 204 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the lateral position of the V-shaped hanging plate 213 to contact different positions of the patient's lower leg, thus better adapting to different leg injuries of different patients.
[0053] By activating the longitudinal electric slide 205, the longitudinal slide 206 can be driven to move longitudinally, thereby enabling the longitudinal position adjustment of the V-shaped suspension plate 213. Thus, when performing single-leg suspension, the other V-shaped suspension plate 213 can be moved to one side to avoid interfering with the suspended leg. At the same time, by adjusting the lateral position of the V-shaped suspension plate 213, the patient's leg can be moved around the thigh, thereby relieving leg discomfort caused by prolonged suspension.
[0054] By starting the worm gear reducer motor 208 to drive the rotation of the take-up shaft 209, the sling 210 can be wound up or unwound, thereby adjusting the height of the V-shaped suspension plate 213. This operation can raise the patient's lower leg to different heights, thus better meeting the suspension requirements of different patients. At the same time, after a period of suspension, by adjusting the height of the V-shaped suspension plate 213, in conjunction with the longitudinal electric slide table 205 to adjust the longitudinal slide seat 206, the patient's leg suspension posture can be adjusted, which can effectively alleviate leg discomfort caused by prolonged suspension.
[0055] The combination of the above components can effectively improve the application range of the suspension assembly, while also better reducing the patient's discomfort during suspension. The overall operation is simple and easy to adjust and control (it should be noted that the horizontal electric slide 201, the longitudinal electric slide 205, and the worm gear reducer motor 208 are controlled by an external control terminal).
[0056] Please refer to this carefully. Figures 1-4 Two sets of worm gear reducers 208, winding shafts 209, lifting belts 210, and I-beam pulleys 212 are installed between a single set of longitudinal slide blocks 206 and V-shaped hanging plates 213.
[0057] In this embodiment, the lifting and lowering of a single V-shaped suspension plate 213 is controlled by two sets of worm gear reducer motors 208, a winding shaft 209, a sling 210, and an I-shaped pulley 212. This not only ensures the stability of the lifting and lowering, but also allows for the adjustment of the tilt angle of the V-shaped suspension plate 213 by independently controlling the operation of the two worm gear reducer motors 208. This allows for matching different tilt angles of the patient's lower leg, making it more flexible and applicable to a wider range of situations.
[0058] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
