Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of limb rehabilitation exercise technology, and in particular to a limb exercise device for clinical use in traditional Chinese medicine orthopedics. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) orthopedics has a long history, originating in ancient times and gradually developing into a systematic practice over various dynasties. It relies on the fundamental theories of TCM, closely linking them to meridian theory and organ theory. The kidneys govern bones, and the liver governs tendons; unobstructed meridians ensure the health of bones and muscles, while damage leads to orthopedic diseases. Its diagnosis and treatment are unique, employing a comprehensive approach combining the four diagnostic methods, with emphasis on local inspection and palpation for accurate assessment of the injury. Treatment methods are abundant. Manual reduction relies on the practitioner's skillful hands to cleverly apply force to realign fractures and dislocations; internal and external herbal medicine is prescribed according to syndrome differentiation to promote healing, remove blood stasis, and reduce swelling and pain; acupuncture and massage are also used to unblock meridians, harmonize qi and blood, and aid in functional recovery.
[0003] Chinese Patent CN113274701A discloses an orthopedic rehabilitation exercise device, relating to the field of rehabilitation equipment technology. The device includes a bottom frame mechanism comprising a bottom support plate. A rotating connecting frame is fixedly connected to one end of the upper side of the bottom support plate, and a transmission contact plate mechanism is rotatably connected to the rotating connecting frame. A first guide pulley group is fixedly installed on the lower side of the bottom frame mechanism, and a second guide pulley group is fixedly installed on the side of the rotating connecting frame away from the first guide pulley group, corresponding to the upper side of the bottom support plate. This device can perform leg swinging and stepping exercises for patients, and also push-pull exercises for patients' arms, greatly improving its practicality and applicability. Furthermore, the device has a novel structure, is compact and easy to carry. In use, one end of the device can be attached to the ground using a rubber suction cup, making it convenient to carry and install, significantly improving its ease of use.
[0004] Orthopedic patients need to engage in a certain amount of exercise during the recovery period to aid in rehabilitation. However, due to differences in the severity of injuries and physical conditions among patients, this device cannot adjust the intensity of exercise according to the patient's needs when assisting with rehabilitation. This results in patients with minor injuries and good physical condition feeling that the intensity is insufficient, thus reducing the effectiveness of the exercise; while patients with severe injuries and weak physical condition may find the intensity too high and be unable to bear it, which may even aggravate the injury and delay rehabilitation. There is an urgent need for improvement and refinement. Utility Model Content

[0025] 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.
[0026] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a limb exercise device for clinical use in traditional Chinese medicine orthopedics includes a first frame 1 and a second frame 2. The first frame 1 and the second frame 2 are fixedly connected to a connecting seat 3. Two connecting blocks 4 are symmetrically installed on the rear side of the top of the connecting seat 3. An adjustment component 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the two connecting blocks 4. A limb support component 5 is slidably arranged on the front side of the top of the connecting seat 3. A drive component 6 is installed in the middle of the bottom end of the connecting seat 3.
[0027] In actual use, this solution uses a drive component 6 to drive the limb support component 5 to move the patient's limbs back and forth, thus helping some patients who cannot move independently to move their limbs.
[0028] For patients who need to exercise independently, the drive component 6 is disconnected from the limb support component 5, and the intensity of the exercise is adjusted by adjusting the component 7. According to the patient's different physical condition and rehabilitation needs, the exercise intensity, frequency or amplitude parameters are precisely controlled to achieve different exercise effects.
[0029] The fixation frame 2 in this solution can adjust the angle and height of the limb support component 5, so that the patient can place the limb on the limb support component 5 more comfortably according to the needs of the limb during exercise.
[0030] Specifically, the drive assembly 6 includes a slide 61 and a protective cover 63. The slide 61 is opened through the front side of the top of the connecting seat 3. A lead screw 62 is horizontally rotatably installed in the inner cavity of the slide 61. A lead screw 65 that slides with the slide 61 is threaded on the outer surface of the lead screw 62. Two pin holes 651 are symmetrically opened through the top of the lead screw 65 on both sides away from the middle.
[0031] The protective cover 63 is fixedly installed on the rear side of the middle of the bottom of the connecting seat 3. The motor 64 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the inner cavity of the protective cover 63. The output shaft of the motor 64 is coaxially fixedly connected to the gear 641. The rear side of the outer surface of the lead screw 62 is fixedly connected to the gear 621 that meshes with the gear 641.
[0032] The limb support assembly 5 includes a slide 51 and two guide rods 52. The two guide rods 52 are located on both sides of the connecting seat 3. The two guide rods 52 are symmetrically fixed between the first fixing frame 1 and the second fixing frame 2. The front end of the slide 51 in the vertical direction is symmetrically provided with two guide holes 511 that slide with the two guide rods 52.
[0033] The top of the slide block 51 in the horizontal direction has two pin holes 55 that are adapted to the two pin holes 651. The top of the rear side of the slide block 51 in the vertical direction is fixedly installed with a bracket 53, and the back end of the bracket 53 is fixedly installed with a step plate 54.
[0034] Place the patient's leg on the bracket 53, align the slide 51 with the screw nut slider 65, and insert the pin into the two pin holes 55 and 651 to connect the slide 51 with the screw nut slider 65. Start the motor 64, which drives the first gear 621 through the second gear 641 to rotate the screw 62, thus moving the limb on the screw nut slider 65 to perform exercise.
[0035] Pull out the two pins to disconnect the slide block 51 from the screw nut slider 65. In this way, the patient's foot steps on the pedal 54 to drive the slide block 51 to reciprocate along the two guide rods 52 in the horizontal direction, thus enabling the patient to actively exercise.
[0036] This program not only targets the patient's lower limbs but also provides exercise therapy for the patient's hands.
[0037] Specifically, the adjustment component 7 includes a cylinder 71 and a spring 78. The cylinder 71 is fixedly installed on the top of the two connecting blocks 4. The cylinder 71 has a sliding hole 711 and a threaded hole 712 through it at both ends. A limit ring 76 is fixedly installed in the inner cavity of the cylinder 71. An air vent 713 is through it on the front side of the outer surface of the cylinder 71.
[0038] A connecting rod 714 is slidably installed on the inner surface of the sliding hole 711. A piston 715 adapted to the inner cavity of the cylinder 71 is fixedly installed at one end of the connecting rod 714 extending into the inner cavity of the cylinder 71. The end of the connecting rod 714 away from the piston 715 is fixedly connected to the step plate 54.
[0039] A threaded rod 72 is slidably installed on the inner surface of the threaded hole 712. A push plate 721 is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded rod 72 that extends into the inner cavity of the cylinder 71. A handle 722 is fixedly installed at the other end of the threaded rod 72 that is away from the push plate 721. A pressure pad 77 is slidably installed in the inner cavity of the cylinder 71 between the push plate 721 and the limiting ring 76. The two ends of the spring 78 are respectively held between the push plate 721 and the pressure pad 77.
[0040] When the pedal 54 slides backward, it pushes the piston 715 in the inner cavity of the cylinder 71 to slide through the connecting rod 714. When the piston 715 slides, it compresses the gas in the inner cavity of the cylinder 71. The compressed gas pushes the pressure pad 77 through the inner cavity of the pressure pad 77 and then leaks out through the air outlet 713.
[0041] A spring 78 is held between the push plate 721 and the pressure pad 77. When the patient pushes the piston 715 to compress the air and squeeze the pressure pad 77, the tension of the spring 78 can cause the pressure pad 77 to generate corresponding resistance feedback or restriction, thereby accurately controlling the patient's operating force and range.
[0042] Twisting the handle 722 causes the push plate 721 to compress and push the spring 78. As the spring 78 is compressed and deformed, the resistance force on the pressure pad 77 will increase. This may increase the force required for the patient to push the piston 715, thus adjusting the intensity of the exercise according to the patient's needs.
[0043] Specifically, two threaded holes 211 are symmetrically opened on both sides of the top of the fixed frame 2 away from the middle. Two threaded rods 22 are slidably installed on the inner surface of the two threaded holes 211. Two limit blocks 213 are fixedly installed on the top of the two threaded rods 22. Two feet 212 are fixedly installed on the bottom of the two threaded rods 22. Two threaded screw plates 23 are threadedly connected to the outer surface of the two threaded rods 22. The two threaded screw plates 23 are located on the lower side of the fixed frame 22.
[0044] Before using this method, first turn the two threaded discs 23 upwards, so that the two threaded discs 23 push the fixing frame 2 to slide vertically along the two threaded rods 22 during the upward process. In this way, the limb can be placed more comfortably on the bracket 53 according to the needs of the patient's limb during exercise.
[0045] It should be noted that the specific installation method, circuit connection method, and control method of the motor 64 used in this utility model are all conventional designs, and will not be described in detail in this utility model.
[0046] 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 claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
