Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hernia belt technology, and in particular to a pediatric hernia belt. Background Technology

[0002] A pediatric inguinal hernia refers to a reducible bulge in the groin area of ​​a child, eventually forming a hernia. Pediatric inguinal hernias are generally congenital, and children who cry frequently are more likely to develop this condition. Because boys' testicles descend relatively later, and the spermatic cord passes through the groin, young boys are more prone to inguinal hernias than young girls. Pediatric inguinal hernias can occur in babies as early as a few days or months after birth, although some babies may develop them after the age of four or five.

[0003] Using a hernia belt as an adjunct therapy is the most common conservative treatment for pediatric hernias. However, if the hernia belt is too loose, the adjunctive effect will be poor; if it is too tight, it will cause discomfort to the child and may even affect their development. Existing systems use pressure sensors and electronic displays to show and detect pressure; however, these are electronic products with hard surfaces, often unsuitable for children, and are also relatively expensive.

[0004] Therefore, we propose a pediatric hernia belt that can determine the tightening force, is comfortable, and is low in cost. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a pediatric hernia belt to solve the problems of discomfort and high cost of existing hernia belts that detect pressure through pressure sensors and electronic displays.

[0006] A pediatric hernia belt includes an elastic waistband. The inner side of the elastic waistband is connected to a multi-balloon assembly capable of judging pressure through balloon inflation. The multi-balloon assembly includes a cloth bag containing three large, hollow elastic balloons installed side-by-side. The tops of the three large, hollow elastic balloons are respectively connected via connecting tubes to small, hollow elastic balloons A, B, and C. The inflation pressure requirements of the small, hollow elastic balloons A, B, and C increase sequentially.

[0007] Preferably, the wall thickness of the above-mentioned elastic hollow microballoons A, B, and C increases sequentially.

[0008] Preferably, the elastic hollow large balloon, the connecting tube, and the elastic hollow small balloon A are all integrally molded from rubber, and the wall thickness of the connecting tube is greater than the thickness of the elastic hollow small balloon C.

[0009] Preferably, one side of the elastic waistband is fixedly connected with a hook and loop fastener, and one side of the fabric bag is fixedly connected with a hook and loop fastener. The fabric bag can be attached to one side of the elastic waistband through the hook and loop fastener and the hook and loop fastener.

[0010] Preferably, the elastic waistband is fixedly connected to a compression belt, and a hernia pad is attached to one side of the compression belt via a hook and loop fastener.

[0011] Preferably, the above also includes a hip belt fixedly connected to the lower side of the compression belt. A loop is fixedly connected to the elastic waist belt. The outer side of the loop is provided with a hook and loop fastener. One end of the hip belt is provided with a hook and loop fastener. One end of the hip belt passes through the inside of the loop, bends, and sticks to the outer surface of the loop.

[0012] Implementing the embodiments of this utility model will have the following beneficial effects:

[0013] The aforementioned pediatric hernia belt was used;

[0014] Using elastic hollow large balloon, elastic hollow small balloon A, elastic hollow small balloon B, and elastic hollow small balloon C, the tightening force of the elastic waist belt can be judged intuitively and conveniently.

[0015] It eliminates the need for rigid pressure sensors and electronic displays, preventing discomfort to children and providing greater comfort.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains; the terminology used herein in the specification of the application is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application; the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, in the specification, claims, and foregoing drawings of this application, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, or foregoing drawings of this application are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a particular order.

[0024] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0025] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] Please see Figure 1-3 A pediatric hernia belt includes an elastic waistband 100, the inner side of which is connected to a multi-balloon assembly 200 capable of judging pressure by balloon inflation.

[0028] In specific implementation, such as Figure 2 As shown, the multi-balloon assembly 200 includes a cloth bag 201, in which three elastic hollow large balloons 202 are installed side by side. The tops of the three elastic hollow large balloons 202 are respectively connected to elastic hollow small balloons A204, B205 and C206 via connecting tubes 203. The expansion and deformation air pressure requirements of elastic hollow small balloons A204, B205 and C206 increase sequentially.

[0029] More specifically, the wall thickness of the elastic hollow small balloons A204, B205, and C206 increases sequentially. The terms "large" and "small" in the context of the elastic hollow large balloon 202 and the elastic hollow small balloons A204, B205, and C206 are for comparison only and do not represent actual dimensions. Based on the same material, the wall thickness of the balloons (elastic hollow large balloon 202 and elastic hollow small balloon A204, etc.) determines the elasticity. The elasticity is directly proportional to the air pressure inside the balloon (non-linear). However, when the air pressure reaches a certain level, it can cause the balloon to deform. This deformation allows for a rough assessment of the air pressure (elastic hollow large balloon 202), thereby determining the tightening force of the elastic waist belt 100.

[0030] In practical application, when only the elastic hollow balloon A204 inflates, the pressure required for child use is sufficient, with a slight looseness. When only elastic hollow balloons A204 and B205 inflate, the pressure required for child use is sufficient and moderate. When all three elastic hollow balloons A204, B205, and C206 inflate, the pressure is too high and needs to be loosened. The appropriate pressure should be selected based on the child's age and tolerance.

[0031] In practice, the elastic hollow large balloon 202, the connecting tube 203, and the elastic hollow small balloon A204 are all integrally molded from rubber, and the wall thickness of the connecting tube 203 is greater than the thickness of the elastic hollow small balloon C206. The connecting tube 203 will not expand during use.

[0032] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, one side of the elastic waistband 100 is fixedly connected to a Velcro loop 101, and one side of the cloth bag 201 is fixedly connected to a Velcro hook 207. The cloth bag 201 can be adhered to one side of the elastic waistband 100 through the Velcro loop 101 and the Velcro hook 207. In this case, the cloth bag 201 can be removed and replaced, which is very convenient. Furthermore, since the rubber material is a non-densified structure, air molecules can easily leak out from the gaps in the material. When the elastic hollow large balloon 202 is pressurized, a small number of air molecules leak out. Continuous use may affect the accuracy during use. Alternating use allows for a relaxation and recovery gap, ensuring the quality of use. Therefore, one or more sets of cloth bags 201 can be prepared for alternating use.

[0033] Specifically, such as Figure 1In the middle, a compression belt 300 is fixedly connected to the elastic waist belt 100, and a hernia pad 400 is attached to one side of the compression belt 300 by hook and loop fastener.

[0034] In practice, the system also includes a hip belt 600 fixedly connected to the lower side of the compression belt 300, and a loop 500 fixedly connected to the elastic waist belt 100. The loop 500 has a hook-and-loop fastener surface 501 on its outer side, and one end of the hip belt 600 has a hook-and-loop fastener female surface 601. One end of the hip belt 600 passes through the inside of the loop 500, bends, and then adheres to the outer surface of the loop 500. The loop 500 facilitates the gathering and adjustment of the hip belt 600, making it very convenient.

[0035] Obviously, the embodiments described above are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. The accompanying drawings show preferred embodiments of this application, but do not limit the patent scope of this application. This application can be implemented in many different forms; rather, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to provide a more thorough and comprehensive understanding of the disclosure of this application. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing specific embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any equivalent structures made using the content of this application's specification and drawings, directly or indirectly applied to other related technical fields, are similarly within the scope of patent protection of this application.
