Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of orthopedic splint technology, and in particular to an orthopedic splint that is easy to fix. Background Technology
[0002] Fracture fixation has long been a challenge in orthopedic treatment. Traditional treatment methods typically involve using orthopedic splints to immobilize the fracture site. These splints are usually made of wood, bamboo, cardboard, or plastic and are secured to the reduced limb with ligatures or bandages to promote fracture healing and limb function recovery. This method, also known as splinting therapy, plays an important role in orthopedic treatment.
[0003] However, existing orthopedic splints have some significant shortcomings in use. In particular, when the splint has a split structure, multiple splints need to be fixed by wrapping them with straps multiple times. This fixation method is not only inefficient, but may also lead to insecure fixation, affecting the fracture healing process. In addition, multiple wrapping may increase patient discomfort and affect the patient's rehabilitation experience.
[0004] Therefore, in order to optimize the fixation efficiency of existing splints, we propose an orthopedic splint that is easy to fix. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the need for multiple turns of straps to fix the splints together, which results in low efficiency. This invention proposes a convenient orthopedic splint for fixation.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: Design an orthopedic splint for easy fixation, including: At least two straps, the ends of which are connected and secured by a clip assembly; A plurality of clamping plate assemblies are distributed on one side of the two straps. Each clamping plate assembly has a groove that adapts to the strap. A connecting strap is fixedly connected to the outside of the clamping plate assembly. The connecting strap covers the outside of the groove, and the free end of the connecting strap is connected to the clamping plate assembly by a fastening assembly.
[0007] Furthermore, the clip assembly includes a frame, and one end of the strap is fixedly connected to the side of the frame; The outer side of the frame is pinned to a pressure cap, and a channel is formed between the pressure cap and the frame for the other end of the strap to pass through. The inner end of the pressure cap is bent into a toothed plate.
[0008] Furthermore, the pressure cap also has bending portions on both sides, and a spring piece portion is defined by a U-shaped groove on the end face of one of the bending portions. A locking protrusion is formed at the upper end of the spring piece portion, and a locking hole adapted to engage with the locking protrusion is provided on the upper side of the frame.
[0009] Furthermore, the clamping plate assembly includes a plate and a cloth sleeve fitted over the outside of the plate; Two grooves are provided and are formed on the outside of the plate and the cloth cover.
[0010] Furthermore, several ventilation holes are provided on the end face of the plate.
[0011] Furthermore, the fastening assembly includes a sub-fastening component fixed to the end of the connecting strap and a female fastening component fixedly connected to the outside of the fabric cover, wherein the sub-fastening component and the female fastening component fasten together.
[0012] Furthermore, a connecting strap is fixedly connected between the ends of the two straps, and the connecting strap is disposed on the side of the straps near the clip assembly.
[0013] The present invention provides a convenient orthopedic splint with the following advantages: Multiple splint components are connected and fixed using two straps. Since the splint components can slide freely on the straps, their positions can be adjusted according to the needs of the binding location during actual application. After adjustment, the ends of the straps are tightened and fixed using clamping components, thus securing multiple splint components to the outside of the limb. Compared to the existing method of wrapping with bandages, this invention effectively improves the installation efficiency of the splint components. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0017] Reference Figure 1-4 As one embodiment of this utility model, it discloses an orthopedic splint that is easy to fix. Specifically, the orthopedic splint includes at least two straps 1, and the first and last ends of the straps 1 are connected and fixed by a clip assembly 2. In use, the two straps 1 are tied to the outside of the limb, and the first end of the straps 1 is tightened and fixed by the clamp assembly 2. This achieves the tightening and fixing of the splint assembly 3. Compared with the bandage wrapping method in the prior art, it can effectively improve the installation efficiency of the splint assembly 3. Several clamping plate assemblies 3 are distributed on one side of the two straps 1. Each clamping plate assembly 3 has a groove 30 that adapts to the strap 1. A connecting strap 4 is fixedly connected to the outside of the clamping plate assembly 3. The connecting strap 4 covers the outside of the groove 30, and the free end of the connecting strap 4 is connected to the clamping plate assembly 3 through a fastening assembly 5. That is, in this embodiment, the clamping plate assembly 3 can slide freely on the strap 1. Therefore, during actual binding, the position of the clamping plate assembly 3 can be adaptively adjusted according to the binding position requirements to further improve the clamping plate installation efficiency.
[0018] In some embodiments, the clip assembly 2 of the present invention includes a frame 21, the frame 21 having a U-shaped structure, and one end of the strap 1 being fixedly connected to the side of the frame 21. In a preferred embodiment, a shaft can be installed on the side of the frame 21, and one end of the strap 1 can be threaded through the shaft and then sewn to itself. This connection method is a conventional method for those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here. The outer side of the frame 21 is pinned to a pressure cap 22, and the pressure cap 22 and the frame 21 form a channel for the other end of the strap 1 to pass through. The inner end of the pressure cap 22 is bent into a toothed plate 23, which is formed by setting several teeth at the end of the plate, and its purpose is to lock the strap 1.
[0019] In other words, when fixing the strap 1, first pass the free end of the strap 1 through the above-mentioned channel and pull it outward until the strap 1 is tightly bound to the outside of the limb. At this time, the above-mentioned pressure cover 22 can be rotated. When the pressure cover 22 is pressed, its inner tooth plate 23 will engage with the outside of the strap 1 to form an engagement structure. Specifically, refer to the belt buckle structure in the prior art. In this way, the strap 1 can be connected and fixed.
[0020] Preferably, in this embodiment, the pressure cap 22 also has a bending portion 24 on both sides. A spring piece portion 25 is defined on the end face of one of the bending portions 24 by a U-shaped groove. The upper end of the spring piece portion 25 is formed with a locking protrusion 26. The upper side of the frame 21 is provided with a locking hole 27 that is adapted to engage with the locking protrusion 26.
[0021] The purpose of the locking protrusion 26 is to achieve self-locking of the cover 22. That is, when the cover 22 is pressed, the locking protrusion 26 on its upper side will engage with the locking hole 27 on the frame 21. In this state, the cover 22 cannot be flipped, so as to achieve the purpose of self-locking protection and avoid the problem of the cover 22 being opened due to misoperation, which would affect the stability of the fixation. Of course, when it is necessary to untie the strap 1, the above-mentioned protrusion 26 can be pressed inward to retract it into the locking hole 27. After that, the pressure cover 22 can be swung outward. When the locking tooth plate 23 on the inner side of the pressure cover 22 separates from the strap 1, the strap 1 can be pulled out freely for disassembly.
[0022] In some embodiments, the clamping plate assembly 3 of the present invention includes a plate 31 and a cloth sleeve 32 sleeved on the outside of the plate 31; Two grooves 30 are provided and formed on the outer side of the plate 31 and the cloth cover 32. Preferably, in this embodiment, a plurality of ventilation holes 33 are provided on the end face of the plate 31. Specifically, in this embodiment, a plurality of ventilation holes 33 are provided on the end face of the plate 31 to achieve a ventilation effect. The design of the cloth cover 32 can enhance the comfort of the plate 31 in contact with the skin. Of course, since the cloth cover 32 has a breathable capacity, it can ensure the breathability of the inner skin. Preferably, in this embodiment, the plate 31 can be made of wood.
[0023] Based on the above embodiments, the fastening assembly 5 in this embodiment includes a sub-fastening component 51 fixed to the end of the connecting strap 4 and a female fastening component 52 fixedly connected to the outside of the fabric cover 32. The sub-fastening component 51 and the female fastening component 52 fasten together. Of course, in this embodiment, the design of the connecting strap 4 is to limit the entire plate 31 to the outside of the binding strap 1. The sub-fastening component 51 and the female fastening component 52 in this embodiment form a snap fastener structure. The specific snap-fit principle is a conventional method for those skilled in the art and will not be elaborated here. In other embodiments, the fastening assembly 5 can also be connected with Velcro to achieve the same technical effect. Those skilled in the art can choose according to actual needs and will not be elaborated here.
[0024] Specifically, in this embodiment, a connecting strap 6 is fixedly connected between the ends of the two straps 1. The connecting strap 6 is located on the side of the strap 1 near the clamp assembly 2. In this embodiment, by connecting the ends of the two straps 1 together through the connecting strap 6, the ends of the two straps 1 connected to the frame 21 are formed as a whole. This allows for synchronous adjustment of the ends of the two straps 1 during the binding process, avoiding misalignment of the two independent straps 1 during binding, thus effectively improving the convenience of fixing the clamp.
[0025] In summary, this utility model uses two straps 1 to connect and fix multiple splint assemblies 3. Since the splint assemblies 3 can slide freely on the straps 1, the position of the splint assemblies 3 can be adjusted according to the needs of the binding position during actual binding. After adjustment, the two ends of the straps 1 are tightened and fixed by the clamping assembly 2, so that multiple splint assemblies 3 can be fixed on the outside of the limb. Compared with the bandage wrapping method in the prior art, it can effectively improve the installation efficiency of the splint assemblies 3.
[0026] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
