Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of wrist joint fixation braces, and more specifically, it relates to an intelligent pressure feedback wrist joint fixation brace. Background Technology
[0002] A wrist brace is a medical device specifically designed to immobilize and protect the wrist joint. It supports, immobilizes, and restricts wrist movement, helping to reduce pain, minimize injury, and promote recovery after injury.
[0003] Current wrist braces have a limited function, simply fixing the wrist joint. However, they fail to promptly alert patients to safety when subjected to external pressure during wear, potentially causing unnecessary injury.
[0004] Therefore, in view of this, we will study and improve the existing structure and its shortcomings to provide an intelligent pressure feedback wrist joint fixation brace, in order to achieve a more practical value. Utility Model Content
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an intelligent pressure feedback wrist joint fixation brace, which is achieved by the following specific technical means: A smart pressure feedback wrist joint fixation brace includes an upper fixation brace, an upper protective pad, a lower fixation brace, and a lower protective pad. A first flexible pressure sensor is mounted on the upper surface of the upper fixation brace, and an alarm is mounted on one side of the upper surface of the first flexible pressure sensor. Several sets of mounting blocks are mounted on both sides of the upper fixation brace, and straps are mounted on the bottom surface of each mounting block. A first Velcro hook surface is provided on the bottom surface of the upper fixation brace, and a first Velcro rough surface is provided on the upper surface of the upper protective pad. A second flexible pressure sensor is mounted on the bottom surface of the lower fixation brace. An equal number of U-shaped blocks, matching the number of straps, are mounted on both sides of the lower fixation brace. A second Velcro hook surface is provided on the upper surface of the lower fixation brace, and a second Velcro rough surface is provided on the bottom surface of the lower protective pad.
[0006] Furthermore, a controller is installed on one side of the upper end face of the upper fixed support, and the controller is electrically connected to the first flexible pressure sensor, the second flexible pressure sensor and the alarm.
[0007] Furthermore, a third Velcro hook is provided on one side of the strap.
[0008] Furthermore, the upper end face of the upper fixing bracket is provided with a third hook and loop surface equal in number to the third hook and loop hook surface.
[0009] Furthermore, the surface of the upper protective pad is provided with a plurality of first ventilation holes.
[0010] Furthermore, the surface of the lower protective pad is provided with several second vent holes.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: By using the first flexible pressure sensor, the second flexible pressure sensor, the alarm, and the controller in combination, when the wrist joint fixation brace is subjected to external pressure, if the pressure exceeds the preset pressure value, the first and second flexible pressure sensors will transmit the pressure value to the controller. The controller will then send an open command to the alarm, which will activate to remind the patient to pay attention to safety, thereby reducing unnecessary injuries to the patient.
[0012] By using the upper protective pad, the first hook-and-loop fastener, the first loop fastener, the lower protective pad, and the second hook-and-loop fastener, the upper and lower protective pads can protect the skin and reduce friction caused by the wrist brace rubbing against the patient's skin. The first ventilation hole on the surface of the upper protective pad and the second ventilation hole on the surface of the lower protective pad can improve ventilation and enhance the patient's comfort when wearing the wrist brace. When the upper and lower protective pads become dirty due to prolonged contact with the skin, they can be quickly removed for cleaning. After cleaning, the first loop fastener on the upper surface of the upper protective pad is attached to the first hook-and-loop fastener on the bottom surface of the upper brace for quick installation, and the second loop fastener on the bottom surface of the lower protective pad is attached to the second hook-and-loop fastener on the upper surface of the lower brace for quick installation. This allows for quick installation and removal of the upper and lower protective pads, thus improving the convenience of the device. Attached Figure Description

A first flexible pressure sensor 5 is installed on the upper end face of the upper fixation brace 1, and an alarm 7 is installed on one side of the upper end face of the first flexible pressure sensor 5. Several sets of mounting blocks 101 are installed on both sides of the upper fixation brace 1, and straps 102 are installed on the bottom end face of the mounting blocks 101. A first Velcro hook surface 103 is provided on the bottom end face of the upper fixation brace 1, and a first Velcro rough surface 201 is provided on the upper end face of the upper protective pad 2. A second flexible pressure sensor 6 is installed on the bottom end face of the lower fixation brace 3, and an equal number of U-shaped blocks 301 as the straps 102 are installed on both sides of the lower fixation brace 3. A second Velcro hook surface 302 is provided on the upper end face of the lower fixation brace 3, and a second Velcro rough surface 401 is provided on the bottom end face of the lower protective pad 4.
[0024] The upper fixation brace 1 has a controller 8 installed on one side of its upper end face. The controller 8 is electrically connected to the first flexible pressure sensor 5, the second flexible pressure sensor 6, and the alarm 7. When the wrist joint fixation brace is subjected to external pressure, if the pressure exceeds the preset pressure value, the first flexible pressure sensor 5 and the second flexible pressure sensor 6 will transmit the pressure value to the controller 8. The controller 8 will send an open command to the alarm 7, and the alarm 7 will be activated to remind the patient to pay attention to safety. The alarm 7 can be one of a buzzer, a warning light, or a vibration alarm. It should be noted that the upper fixation brace 1 is equipped with a power supply to operate these devices.
[0025] One side of the strap 102 is provided with a third Velcro hook surface 104.
[0026] The upper end face of the upper fixed support 1 is provided with a third hook and loop fastener 105, which is equal in number to the third hook and loop fastener 104.

[0029] The working principle of this embodiment: Several straps 102 are passed through the corresponding U-shaped blocks 301, and then the third Velcro hook side 104 of one side of the strap 102 is made to align with the Velcro loop side of the upper end of the upper fixation brace 1, so that the upper fixation brace 1 and the lower fixation brace 3 are quickly installed at the patient's wrist joint. When the wrist joint fixation brace is subjected to external pressure, if the pressure exceeds the preset pressure value, the first flexible pressure sensor 5 and the second flexible pressure sensor 6 will transmit the pressure value to the controller 8. The controller 8 sends an opening command to the alarm 7, and the alarm 7 is activated to remind the patient to pay attention to safety, thereby reducing unnecessary injury to the patient. The upper protective pad 2 and the lower protective pad 4 can protect the skin and reduce the friction between the wrist joint fixation brace and the patient. The friction caused by skin friction is mitigated by the first ventilation hole 202 on the surface of the upper protective pad 2 and the second ventilation hole 402 on the surface of the lower protective pad 4, which improves the breathability and enhances the comfort of the patient when wearing the wrist joint fixation brace. When the upper protective pad 2 and the lower protective pad 4 become dirty due to long-term contact with the skin, they can be quickly removed for cleaning. After cleaning, the first Velcro hook side 201 on the upper end of the upper protective pad 2 is attached to the first Velcro hook side 103 on the bottom end of the upper fixation brace 1, so that the upper protective pad 2 can be installed quickly. Similarly, the second Velcro hook side 401 on the bottom end of the lower protective pad 4 is attached to the second Velcro hook side 302 on the upper end of the lower fixation brace 3, so that the lower protective pad 4 can be installed quickly.
