[0019] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification.

[0020] Please refer to all the accompanying drawings below. It should be understood that the structures, proportions, sizes, etc., depicted in the accompanying drawings are merely for illustrative purposes to aid those skilled in the art and are not intended to limit the scope of this invention. Therefore, they have no substantial technical significance.

[0021] The following embodiments are for illustrative purposes only. These embodiments can be combined and are not limited to the content shown in any single embodiment below.

[0022] Please see Figure 1This utility model provides a puncture assistance device for the artery in the arm, including: an arm support, an arm lifting component, and a support component; the arm support has an arc-shaped structure, and the arm lifting component is set in the arc-shaped groove of the arm support to change the height of the arm relative to the bottom of the arc-shaped groove so that the artery in the arm is more prominent on the arm; the support component is connected to the arm support and is used to support the arm support on the hospital bed.

[0023] The arm support can be an arc-shaped groove structure adapted to the shape of the arm, used to support the arm. The arm support may include a forearm support 1 and a rear arm support 2, which are rotatably connected. This rotatable connection simulates the rotatable connection of the human arm at the elbow, ensuring that the forearm support 1 and rear arm support 2 fit the human arm better and achieve the purpose of arm support. Specifically, a pivot can be provided at one end of the forearm support 1, and a through hole for connecting to the pivot can be provided on the rear arm support 2, thus realizing the rotatable connection between the forearm support 1 and rear arm support 2. Furthermore, to facilitate the rotation of the forearm support 1 and rear arm support 2, the connection points of the forearm support 1 and rear arm support 2 are each cut to form an inclined surface to avoid interference between the two during rotation. In one implementation, two telescopic components can also be provided at the connection points of the forearm support 1 and rear arm support 2, which can be linear telescopic components such as cylinders. The fixed ends of the two telescopic components can be connected to the side wall of the forearm support 1 near the bottom of the arc-shaped groove, and the two telescopic components are located on opposite sides of the pivot. The movable ends of the two telescopic components can be hinged to the side wall of the rear arm support 2 near the top of the arc-shaped groove, and the two telescopic components are located on opposite sides of the through hole. In this way, the telescopic components are used to maintain the angle after the forearm support 1 and the rear arm support 2 have rotated a certain angle.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-2The arm lifting assembly may include a first arm lifting assembly 5 and a second arm lifting assembly 6. The first arm lifting assembly 5 is disposed on the forearm support 1, and the second arm lifting assembly 6 is disposed on the rear arm support 2. Specifically, the first arm lifting assembly 5 and the second arm lifting assembly 6 may each include an airbag 51 and an airbag support plate 52 for mounting the airbag 51. The airbag support plate 52 is slidably connected to the corresponding arm support (the airbag support plate 52 of the first arm lifting assembly 5 corresponds to the forearm support 1, and the airbag support plate 52 of the second arm lifting assembly 6 corresponds to the rear arm support 2). The airbag support plate 52 has an arc-shaped structure, and the arc of the airbag support plate 52 is the same as the arc of the arc mechanism of the corresponding arm support, so that after the airbag support plate 52 is installed on the corresponding arm support, the airbag support plate 52 can fit against the inner wall of the arm support. The airbag support plate 52 has a mounting cavity for mounting the airbag 51 on the side away from the arc-shaped groove of the corresponding arm rest. The airbag 51 is fixedly mounted in the mounting cavity, and the mounting cavity has an opening on the side away from the arc-shaped groove of the corresponding arm rest. The side wall of the mounting cavity has an air inlet channel 521 and an air outlet channel 522 for communicating with the airbag 51. In use, when puncturing the artery corresponding to the arm, such as the cubital artery of the arm, the position on the arm corresponding to the puncture of the cubital artery is placed on the airbag 51 of the first arm lifting assembly 5; when puncturing the elbow artery of the arm, the position on the arm corresponding to the puncture of the elbow artery is placed on the airbag 51 of the second arm lifting assembly 6. After the arm is positioned, the airbag 51 takes in air through the air inlet channel 521 located on the side wall of the mounting cavity, causing the airbag 51 to inflate. Since the airbag 51 is fixed inside the mounting cavity, and the mounting cavity has an opening, the deformation of the airbag 51 expands outward through the opening of the mounting cavity, thereby making the corresponding artery on the arm more prominent, facilitating puncture of the elbow artery or cubital artery by medical personnel. After use, the airbag 51 can be deflated through the deflation channel of the airbag support plate 52 to return it to an uninflated state. It is understood that a one-way valve can be provided in the air inlet channel 521 to prevent air from leaking out of the airbag 51. Inflation of the airbag 51 can be achieved using tools such as an air pump; this embodiment does not impose any limitations on this. An air plug may be provided on the deflation channel. When inflating, the air plug blocks the deflation channel to prevent air from overflowing from the airbag 51. The air plug is a structure of the prior art, and this embodiment does not limit it.

[0025] T-slots 8 can be provided on the forearm support 1 and the rear arm support 2. The extension direction of the T-slots 8 is the same as the extension direction of the corresponding arm support (the T-slots 8 of the forearm support 1 correspond to the forearm support 1, and the T-slots 8 of the rear arm support 2 correspond to the rear arm support 2). The small end of the T-slots 8 is set towards the arc-shaped groove. The arm lifting assembly also includes a mounting plate 7. A protrusion 523 is provided on the airbag support plate 52. The extension direction of the protrusion 523 is the same as the extension direction of the corresponding arm support. The protrusion 523 is used to slide with the small end of the T-slots 8. The mounting plate 7 is connected to the end of the protrusion 523 away from the airbag support plate 52 and is located in the large end of the T-slots 8. It is used to limit the protrusion 523 on the small end of the T-slots 8. The extension length of the T-slots 8 is greater than the extension length of the protrusion 523. That is, the airbag support plate 52 can slide in the arc-shaped groove of the corresponding arm support to change the position of the airbag support plate 52 in the corresponding arm support to adapt to the arm length of different people. The convex strip 523 and the T-slot 8 can each be set to two, such as Figure 2 As shown, one of the protrusions 523 is located on the left end of the airbag support plate 52, and the other protrusion 523 is located on the right end of the airbag support plate 52. The mounting plate 7 and the protrusions 523 can be connected by screws or other structures to prevent the protrusions 523 from coming out of the T-slot 8.

[0026] Please see Figure 1 Multiple first limiting holes 9 are provided in the arc-shaped grooves of the forearm support 1 and the rear arm support 2. These first limiting holes 9 are located on the same straight line along the extension direction of the corresponding arm support. A first elastic locking member 524 is provided on the airbag support plate 52, which is used to connect with the first limiting holes 9. The first limiting hole 9 is a blind hole structure set in the groove of the corresponding arm support. The first elastic locking member 524 can be a spring plunger structure, which is fixedly set on the airbag support plate 52, and its locking part (when the first elastic locking member 524 is a spring plunger, the locking part is a spherical structure of the front section of the spring plunger) protrudes from the bottom of the airbag support plate 52. After the airbag support plate 52 slides within the corresponding arm support, the cooperation between the first elastic locking member 524 and the first limiting hole 9 is used to limit the position of the airbag support plate 52, preventing the position of the airbag support plate 52 from changing when the airbag 51 is inflated or deflated.

[0027] Please see Figure 1-3The forearm support 1 may include a first forearm sub-support 11 and a second forearm sub-support 12; the first forearm sub-support 11 is rotatably connected to the rear forearm support 2, and the second forearm sub-support 12 is slidably disposed on the first forearm sub-support 11; a T-slot 8 and a first limiting hole 9 are disposed on the second forearm sub-support 12. Specifically, the second forearm sub-support 12 may be provided with a plurality of second limiting holes 121, the second limiting holes 121 being located on the same straight line in the extending direction of the second forearm sub-support 12; the first forearm support 11 may be provided with a second elastic snap-fit ​​member 111, the second elastic snap-fit ​​member 111 being used to connect with the second limiting holes 121. The second limiting hole 121 may be a blind hole structure, and the second elastic snap-fit ​​member 111 may be a spring plunger structure, which is disposed at the bottom of the first forearm sub-support 11, for cooperating with the second limiting hole 121 to achieve the fixation of the second forearm sub-support 12 and the first forearm support 11. By configuring the first forearm support 11 and the second forearm support 12, the length of the forearm support 1 can be changed to accommodate forearm lengths of different populations. In an optional embodiment, the posterior arm support 2 can also be divided into a first posterior arm support and a second posterior arm support, and the first posterior arm support and the second posterior arm support are also slidably connected to adapt to the posterior arm lengths of different populations, thereby improving the applicability of the puncture assistance device.

[0028] Please see Figure 1 The support components may include a first support component 3 and a second support component. The first support component 3 is connected to the rear arm support 2 and is used to support the rear arm support 2 on the hospital bed. The second support component is connected to the forearm support 1 and is used to support the forearm support 1 on the hospital bed. Through the function of the first support component 3 and the second support component, two-point positioning is achieved, ensuring the stability of the puncture auxiliary device during use.

[0029] Please see Figure 1 , 4The first support assembly 3 may include a first rotating plate 31, which is rotatably connected to the end of the rear arm support 2 away from the front arm support 1. The first rotating plate 31 is provided with multiple third limiting holes 311, arranged in a ring around the rotational connection point between the first rotating plate 31 and the rear arm support 2. The rear arm support 2 is provided with third elastic locking members for engaging with the third limiting holes 311. The connection point between the first rotating plate 31 and the rear arm support 2 may be located at the bottom of the rear arm support 2, and the two can be rotatably connected via a rotating shaft. The third limiting holes 311 can be blind holes or through holes. The multiple third elastic locking members are spring plunger structures, fixedly mounted on the rear arm support 2. After the first rotating plate 31 rotates relative to the rear arm support 2 at a certain angle, the cooperation between the third elastic locking members and the third limiting holes 311 achieves the fixation of the first rotating plate 31 relative to the rear arm support 2. In use, the end of the first rotating plate 31 furthest from the rear armrest 2 can be positioned between the mattress and the bed, thus utilizing the weight of the patient and the mattress to fix the first rotating plate 31. Of course, in other implementations, the first rotating plate 31 can be fixed to the bed in other ways, and this embodiment does not limit this. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the second support assembly includes a second rotating plate, which is rotatably connected to the end of the forearm rest furthest from the rear armrest. The second rotating plate is provided with multiple fourth limiting holes, arranged in a ring around the rotational connection point between the second rotating plate and the forearm rest. The forearm rest is provided with a fourth elastic locking member for engaging with the fourth limiting holes. The specific structures of the second rotating plate, the fourth limiting holes, and the fourth elastic locking member are the same as those of the first rotating plate, the third limiting hole, and the third elastic locking member of the first support assembly, and will not be described in detail here. Of course, in other implementations, the second support assembly can also adopt other implementation methods, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0030] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
