Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of orthotics technology, specifically to an easily adjustable spinal orthotics device. Background Technology

[0002] Scoliosis is a relatively common spinal deformity characterized by a lateral curvature of the spine, deviating from the body's normal midline. According to relevant medical research, the incidence of scoliosis is on the rise among adolescents, and early symptoms are often difficult to detect. As the condition progresses, it not only affects the patient's appearance but can also damage cardiopulmonary function, severely impacting their quality of life.

[0003] In the treatment of scoliosis, corrective devices play a crucial role. However, currently available scoliosis corrective devices have many problems. Firstly, their universality is extremely low. Most corrective devices are custom-made for each patient's specific condition. Because the severity of a patient's condition varies greatly—some patients have a small curvature, in the mild stage, while others have a larger curvature, possibly even with complex conditions such as rotational deformities—and because patients differ in height and body type—tall and short, overweight and underweight patients have significantly different body dimensions and proportions, these specially made corrective devices are only suitable for specific individuals, failing to achieve universal applicability. This greatly limits the effective use of resources and increases the treatment cost for patients.

[0004] On the other hand, existing devices suffer from serious deficiencies in terms of flexibility and adjustability. During corrective treatment, as the patient's condition gradually improves, the shape of the spine changes, requiring corresponding adjustments to the size of the corrective device. However, most existing corrective devices, once manufactured, have essentially fixed dimensions and structures, making them difficult to adjust. Even those devices with some adjustment capabilities are extremely complex and difficult to adjust, often requiring specialized technicians with specialized tools and significant time and effort. This not only causes considerable inconvenience for patients but may also affect the corrective effect due to failure to adjust the device in a timely and accurate manner, potentially even causing secondary damage to the patient's spine.

[0005] In conclusion, there is an urgent need to develop a spinal orthotic device that is suitable for patients with different conditions, heights, and body types, and that is easy to adjust during treatment. This is of great significance for improving the effectiveness and convenience of scoliosis treatment. Utility Model Content

[0049] Scale line 18: Located on the structural plate 1 near the stool 3, it provides a reference scale for adjusting the height of the stool surface 13, making it convenient for patients to accurately adjust the height.

[0050] Working Principle: When a patient prepares to use the device, they first adjust the height of the stool 3 according to their own height. The stool 3 consists of a seat 13, a lifting groove 14, a slider 15, and a seat fixing block 16. The patient slides the slider 15 on one side of the seat 13 within the lifting groove 14 on the structural plate 1, while referring to the scale line 18 set near the stool 3 on the structural plate 1, to adjust the seat 13 to a suitable height, ensuring that the patient's body is in a comfortable position conducive to subsequent correction after sitting down. Then, the patient sits comfortably on the seat 13, with their back as close to the structural plate 1 as possible. At this point, the core correction phase of the device begins. The correction pushing device 4 is the key part of the entire device, and its operation involves the coordination of multiple substructures. One side of the correction pushing device 4 has multiple sets of fixing rods 5. These fixing rods 5 cooperate with the adjustment grooves 6 on the structural plate 1 to adjust the overall distance of the correction pushing device 4 from the center. However, this adjustment is mainly used for large-scale adjustment of the depth and is rarely used in actual use. Each orthodontic pusher 4 includes a housing, multiple sets of pneumatic push rods 8, and multiple sets of push heads 9. When the device is activated, the multiple sets of pneumatic push rods 8 begin to work, and their output ends push the push heads 9. The push head 9 consists of a push rod fitting sleeve 10, an adjustable pad 11, and a C-shaped flexible block 12. The output end of the pneumatic push rod 8 is inserted into the push rod fitting sleeve 10, and the adjustable pad 11 at the bottom of the push rod fitting sleeve 10 plays an important role. Patients can choose to install adjustable pads 11 of different thicknesses according to their condition and body shape. For example, the required depth varies depending on the severity of the condition and the stage of correction. In the early stages of correction, the depth is generally smaller, and it will gradually increase as treatment progresses. Patients with severe conditions will also have a smaller depth when using the device for the first time. Patients only need to carry the adjustable pad 11 with the appropriate depth and select the pneumatic push rod 8 as needed and assemble the adjustable pad 11 when using the device to quickly complete the adjustment. When correcting scoliosis, multiple sets of C-shaped flexible blocks 12 are staggered and pressed against both sides of the patient's body. It is generally recommended to use three sets of pneumatic pushers 8. For patients with C-shaped scoliosis, the upper and lower sets of pneumatic pushers 8 are used on the opening side of the C-shape, and the middle pneumatic pusher 8 is used on the other side. The three sets of pneumatic pushers 8 work together to push the pusher head 9, ensuring that the C-shaped flexible blocks 12 are firmly pressed against both sides of the patient's body. Through continuous and precise external force, the scoliosis is gradually corrected, helping patients improve spinal shape and relieve pain. The entire device, through the ingenious cooperation between its various structures, achieves effective adaptation and correction for patients with different conditions, heights, and body types.

[0051] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
