Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of orthodontic belt technology, and more specifically, to a rib belt. Background Technology
[0002] A rib strap is an external fixation product used to immobilize and stabilize the bones and soft tissues of the chest. Rib straps provide stability and support, reduce the impact of movement and activity on the injured site, and are primarily used for chest fixation after trauma, fracture, or surgery to protect the thoracic bone structure and soft tissues and promote the recovery process.
[0003] In existing technologies, the rib belt has poor elasticity. As a result, if the rib belt is to ensure a certain fixation effect, after fixation, deep breathing will cause the chest cavity at the fractured rib to be pushed up and misaligned, thus affecting the rib's recovery and resulting in poor performance.

[0027] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0028] Figures 1 to 3 A rib strap is shown, including a strap body 100 and a pressure strap 110. The strap body 100 is made of elastic fabric and includes a first fixed end 101 and a second fixed end 102, with the first fixed end 101 detachably connected to the second fixed end 102. The middle portion of the pressure strap 110 is fixed to the strap body 100, and the pressure strap 110 is also fixed to the first fixed end 101 and the second fixed end 102. When the first fixed end 101 of the strap body 100 is connected to the second fixed end 102, the pressure strap 110 applies a tightening force to the strap body 100 within a surrounding area.
[0029] The first fixed end 101 and the second fixed end 102 both have a biomimetic surface for fitting to the human chest when the belt body 100 is fixed.
[0030] According to the rib strap of this utility model, the first fixed end 101 and the second fixed end 102 of the strap body 100 are fixed, so that the pressure belt 110 applies a tightening force to the strap body 100, so that the strap body 100 can tighten the human chest. The first fixed end 101 and the second fixed end 102 both have biomimetic surfaces that fit into the human chest, so that the rib strap will not compress the human chest too much after it is fixed. When the chest cavity rises and falls, it will be guaranteed to shift as a whole at the break point without misalignment, and the use effect is good.
[0031] Optionally, one of the first fixed end 101 and the second fixed end 102 is provided with a hook and loop fastener, and the other of the first fixed end 101 and the second fixed end 102 is provided with a loop fastener. The hook and loop fastener can be bonded and fixed to the loop fastener, thereby enabling a detachable connection between the first fixed end 101 and the second fixed end 102, facilitating the wrapping of the strap body 100 around the chest of the human body and securing it in place. Figure 1 The rib strap shown is in the wrapped state where the main body 100 is fixed to the human chest. The first fixed end 101 and the second fixed end 102 are stacked together and fixed, thereby fixing the human chest and helping to assist in human rehabilitation.
[0032] Reference Figure 3 The rib strap also includes two bionic plates 120, which are positioned on the side of the strap body 100 closest to the human body during use. The two bionic plates 120 are respectively used to fit against both sides of the human chest, thereby providing a fixing effect on both sides of the chest and preventing the rib strap from relying solely on the strap body 100 for fixation. This prevents excessive pressure on the front and back sides of the chest and avoids affecting breathing. Optionally, the bionic plates 120 can be made of PP (polypropylene) or PVC (polyvinyl chloride).
[0033] Optionally, an insertion pocket is provided on the side of the main body 100 near the bionic plate 120, and the bionic plate 120 is inserted into the insertion pocket, so that the bionic plate 120 can be fixed inside the main body 100 and is easy to install and disassemble.
[0034] Optionally, refer to Figure 2 The rib strap also includes an injection-molded plate 130, which is constructed as an injection-molded shell. The injection-molded plate 130 is connected to the middle of the strap body 100 and extends along the width direction of the strap body 100. Therefore, when the strap body 100 is fixed, the injection-molded plate 130 is located on the back of the human body and can provide a certain support effect for the back of the human body.
[0035] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2The rib strap includes two injection-molded plates 130 and two pressure bands 110. The two injection-molded plates 130 are symmetrically distributed on the strap body 100 and are located on the back of the body when the strap body 100 is fixed to the human body. One pressure band 110 connects the injection-molded plate 130 and the first fixed end 101, and the other pressure band 110 connects the injection-molded plate 130 and the second fixed end 102. When the first fixed end 101 and the second fixed end 102 of the strap body 100 are connected together, the two pressure bands 110 apply a tightening force around the strap body 100 on both sides of the human body, thereby assisting the human body. Providing tightening force on both sides of the human body has minimal impact on human breathing.
[0036] Reference Figure 2 Along the width direction of the main body 100, the width of the top end of the injection-molded plate 130 (taking the rib strap as an example) is greater than the width of the bottom end of the injection-molded plate 130 (taking the rib strap as an example), thus better conforming to the curve of the human back. The pressure band 110 includes a first band 111, a second band 112, and a connecting buckle 113. The first band 111 passes through the connecting buckle 113, and both ends of the first band 111 are connected to either the first fixed end 101 or the second fixed end 102. The second band 112 passes through the connecting buckle 113, and both ends of the second band 112 are connected to the top and bottom ends of the injection-molded plate 130, respectively, thereby making the tightening force applied by the pressure band 110 to the main body 100 more uniform.
[0037] Reference Figure 1 Optionally, the injection-molded plate 130 is sewn and fixed to the belt body 100, which facilitates installation and prevents it from falling off easily. In addition, the ends of the two pressure belts 110 are aligned along the width direction of the belt body 100, so that the tightening force of the rib belt on both sides of the human body is more symmetrical and uniform.
[0038] 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.
