Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of medical device technology, and more specifically, to an upper ribcage. Background Technology
[0002] The upper rib strap is an external fixation product used to fix and stabilize the bones and soft tissues of the upper rib area in the human chest.
[0003] In existing technologies, the upper rib strap relies solely on a single elastic material to wrap around the upper rib area of the human chest. To ensure a good fixation effect, the area around which the upper rib strap is wrapped needs to be small, resulting in a large tightening force on the human body and a large compressive force on the human chest. When breathing deeply, this can cause the chest cavity at the fractured rib to rise and become misaligned, thus affecting the rib's recovery and making it unsuitable for use. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides an upper rib belt.
[0005] The technical solution for an upper rib belt provided in this application is as follows:

[0008] Two biomimetic plates, each disposed within the surrounding area and corresponding to the sides of the human chest, are arranged on both sides of the surrounding area, and both biomimetic plates are connected to the surrounding belt; and
[0009] A tightening pressure belt is provided, with both ends of the tightening pressure belt connected to the outer side of the wrapping belt. The tightening pressure belt extends along the outer side of the wrapping area, thereby applying a tightening force to the wrapping belt toward the inner side of the wrapping area.
[0010] With the above technical solution, when the first and second connecting ends of the wrapping belt are fixed, the tightening and pressure belt applies a tightening force toward the inside of the wrapping area, thereby tightening the wrapping belt around the chest of the human body. Due to the setting of the bionic plate, the sides of the wrapping area are supported, and when the chest cavity rises and falls, it is ensured that the body shifts as a whole at the break point without misalignment, resulting in good performance.
[0011] Optionally, the wrapping band has a contoured surface on one side corresponding to the front of the human chest, so that the wrapping band can fit the human chest.

[0027] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1 to 3 This application will be described in further detail.
[0028] This application discloses an upper rib band; please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1 to 3 The upper rib band includes a circumferential band 100, two bionic plates 120, and a tightening and pressure band 110. The circumferential band 100 includes a first connecting end 101 and a second connecting end 102, which are detachably connected, thereby forming a circumferential region 103 around the upper rib area of the human chest. The two bionic plates 120 are disposed within the circumferential region 103 and are positioned on both sides of the circumferential region 103, corresponding to the sides of the human chest, and are both connected to the circumferential band 100. Both ends of the tightening and pressure band 110 are connected to the outer sides of the circumferential band 100, and the tightening and pressure band 110 extends along the outer side of the circumferential region 103, thereby applying a tightening force to the circumferential band 100 towards the inner side of the circumferential region 103.
[0029] With the above technical solution, when the first connecting end 101 and the second connecting end 102 of the wrapping belt 100 are fixed, the tightening and pressure belt 110 applies a tightening force to the wrapping belt 100 toward the inside of the wrapping area 103, thereby tightening the wrapping belt 100 around the chest of the human body. Due to the setting of the bionic plate 120, the two sides of the wrapping area 103 are supported, and when the chest cavity rises and falls, it is ensured that the whole body shifts at the break point without misalignment, resulting in good performance.
[0030] Optionally, the first connecting end 101 is provided with a hook and loop fastener, and the second connecting end 102 is provided with a loop fastener. The first connecting end 101 and the second connecting end 102 are overlapped and fixed by the hook and loop fastener, so that the two ends of the wrap 100 can be detachably connected, making it convenient for the user to wear the rib strap to the upper part of the chest.
[0031] Optionally, the wrap 100 has a contoured surface on one side corresponding to the front of the human chest, so that the wrap 100 can fit the human chest, thereby reducing the compression of the wrap 100 on the human body and making the human body more comfortable to wear the rib strap.
[0032] Optionally, the contoured surface is provided on the first connecting end 101 and the second connecting end 102, so that the user can adjust the tightness of the upper rib strap, making the contoured surface fit the human body better and the wearing effect better.
[0033] Optionally, refer to Figure 2 The upper rib strap also includes an injection-molded plate 130, which is constructed as an injection-molded shell. The injection-molded plate 130 is positioned on the outside of the surrounding area 103, corresponding to the back of the human chest, thereby improving the support performance of the surrounding strap 100 for the human back and making the upper rib strap more comfortable for the human body to wear.
[0034] Furthermore, the injection-molded plate 130 is in the shape of an inverted isosceles trapezoid, making the width of the top of the injection-molded plate 130 greater than the width of the bottom of the injection-molded plate 130, which better conforms to the shape of the human back and makes the injection-molded plate 130 provide better support for the human body.
[0035] Optionally, combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the tightening and pressure belt 110 includes a first belt 111 and a second belt 112. The first belt 111 and the second belt 112 are respectively arranged on both sides of the surrounding area 103, so that the tightening force of the tightening and pressure belt 110 on the surrounding belt 100 is concentrated on the bionic plates 120 on both sides, thereby reducing the squeezing force on the front and back sides of the surrounding belt 100 and making it more comfortable for the human body to wear.
[0036] Furthermore, the first end of the first band 111 is connected to the top of the injection molding plate 130, and the second end of the first band 111 is connected to the first connecting end 101. The first end of the second band 112 is connected to the top of the injection molding plate 130, and the second end of the second band 112 is connected to the second connecting end 102. Along the width direction of the wrapping band 100, the second ends of the first band 111 and the second ends of the second band 112 are spaced apart, thereby making the tightening force of the tightening and pressure band 110 on the wrapping band 100 more uniform along the width direction of the wrapping band 100, further improving the wearing comfort of the upper rib strap.
[0037] Alternatively, the bionic board 120120 can be made of PP (polypropylene) or PVC (polyvinyl chloride) material, providing good support and elasticity for comfortable wear.
[0038] Optionally, an insertion pocket is provided on the inner side of the wrapping belt 100, and the bionic plate 120 is inserted into the insertion pocket, so that the bionic plate 120 can be fixed on the inner side of the wrapping belt 100 and is easy to install and remove.
[0039] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
