Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of medical assistive device technology, and more specifically, relates to a posture correction brace and posture correction belt. Background Technology
[0002] Posture corrector harnesses use external force to correct the posture of the shoulders and back, in order to improve the user's hunched back.
[0003] In related technologies, posture corrector straps include shoulder straps and back support components. One end of the shoulder strap is fixedly connected to the back support component, and an adjustment buckle is connected to the back support component. The other end of the shoulder strap passes through the adjustment buckle, and the length of the shoulder strap can be adjusted by the adjustment buckle. Specifically, the user pulls the free end of the shoulder strap that passes through the adjustment buckle to adjust the tightness of the shoulder strap worn on the body.
[0004] However, the above method has a drawback: when the free end of the shoulder strap is pulled, the total resistance to be overcome includes two parts, namely the frictional resistance generated by the mechanical engagement inside the adjustment buckle and the skin friction between the shoulder strap and the human body. This causes the pulling force applied by the user to be significantly reduced at the adjustment buckle, and the actual corrective force transmitted to the shoulder strap worn on the body is greatly reduced, making it difficult to form a continuous and effective reverse corrective tension, resulting in a weak corrective effect. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a posture correction strap and posture correction belt to solve the technical problem that the posture correction strap has a weak corrective effect in the prior art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: a posture correction strap is provided, including shoulder straps and a limiting member. The limiting member is provided with a channel. Two shoulder straps are provided, each shoulder strap having a first end and a second end. The first ends of the two shoulder straps are connected to each other, and the second ends of the two shoulder straps are used to extend to the armpit area of the human body and extend upward from the chest area along the contour of the human shoulder to the back area, moving through the channel in the back area.
[0007] In an alternative embodiment, the posture corrector strap further includes a support member, with the first ends of the two shoulder straps respectively fixedly connected to the support member.

[0010] In one alternative embodiment, the second ends of the two shoulder straps cross and pass through the channel in the back area.
[0011] In one alternative embodiment, the channel includes a first channel and a second channel that are arranged in a cross configuration, with the second ends of the two shoulder straps passing through the first channel and the second channel respectively, and being slidably arranged along the first channel and the second channel respectively.
[0012] In one alternative embodiment, the limiting member includes at least two limiting buckles, which are connected at intervals to the first end of the shoulder strap. The limiting buckles are provided with channels through which the second ends of the two shoulder straps pass respectively.

[0014] In one alternative embodiment, the posture corrector does not include a waist belt.
[0015] Another objective of this application is to provide a posture correction belt, including a waist belt and a posture correction back strap as described above.
[0016] The beneficial effects of the posture correction strap and posture correction belt provided in this application are as follows: Compared with the prior art, the posture correction strap of this application connects the first ends of the shoulder straps to each other, and the second end of the shoulder strap passes through the armpit area of the human body and extends upward from the chest area along the contour of the human shoulder to the back. It is crossed in the back area and movably passes through the channel. When the user pulls the second end of the two shoulder straps, the first end of the two shoulder straps is subjected to opposite traction forces, and the direction of the force is more horizontal. This can keep the shoulder strap position stable and improve the transmission effect of the corrective force. By pulling the second end of the shoulder strap, the entire shoulder strap can be tightened, which can effectively pull the shoulder backward, thereby improving hunchback. This method improves the transmission efficiency and stability of the corrective force and improves the corrective effect. The user only needs to manually pull the free end of the shoulder strap to complete the overall adjustment. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0037] To make the technical problems, technical solutions, and beneficial effects to be solved by this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and are not intended to limit the scope of this application.
[0038] It should be noted that when a component is referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another component, it can be directly on or indirectly on that other component. When a component is referred to as being "connected to" another component, it can be directly connected to or indirectly connected to that other component.
[0039] It should be understood that the terms "length", "width", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application.
[0040] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0041] Posture corrector harnesses use external force to correct the posture of the shoulders and back, in order to improve the user's hunched back. In related technologies, posture corrector straps include shoulder straps and back supports. The first end of the shoulder strap is fixedly connected to the back support, which has an adjustment buckle. The second end of the shoulder strap passes through the adjustment buckle, allowing the length of the shoulder strap to be adjusted. Specifically, the user pulls the shoulder strap through the adjustment buckle to adjust the tightness of the strap worn on the body. However, this method has a drawback: the frictional resistance generated by the mechanical engagement of the adjustment buckle, combined with the skin friction between the shoulder strap and the body, causes the pulling force applied by the user to be significantly reduced at the adjustment buckle. That is, when the free end of the shoulder strap is pulled, the total resistance to be overcome includes two parts: the mechanical friction of the adjustment buckle (such as the shearing force generated by the engagement of the buckle teeth) and the contact friction between the shoulder strap and the body (such as the sliding friction between the shoulder strap fabric and the shoulder skin). After these two frictional forces are superimposed, the actual corrective force transmitted to the shoulder strap worn on the body is greatly reduced, making it difficult to form a continuous and effective reverse corrective tension, resulting in a weak corrective effect. In addition, the dynamic resistance generated by muscle contraction during human movement will further exacerbate the attenuation of corrective force, ultimately leading to unsatisfactory hunchback correction results.
[0042] In other related technologies, the shoulder straps are wrapped around the back, then forward across the shoulders, down around the armpits, and finally back to the back. The problem with this design is that it does not fully consider the interaction between the shoulder strap and the shoulder when the strap moves. When the user pulls the end of the strap, the strap moves forward relative to the shoulder, creating a forward frictional force on the shoulder, causing the shoulder to curl inward and exacerbating the user's hunched shoulder problem.
[0043] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 12 The posture correction strap 100 provided in this application embodiment will now be described. The posture correction strap 100 includes shoulder straps 10 and limiting members 20. The limiting members 20 are provided with channels 21. There are two shoulder straps 10, each shoulder strap 10 has a first end 11 and a second end 12. The first ends 11 of the two shoulder straps 10 are connected to each other. The second ends 12 of the two shoulder straps 10 are used to extend to the armpit area of the human body and extend upward from the chest area along the contour of the human shoulder to the back area, moving through the channel 21 in the back area.
[0044] Shoulder straps 10 are band-like components used to wrap around the human shoulder and apply corrective force, providing support and traction. Two shoulder straps 10 are provided, one for each side of the body. The first ends 11 of the two straps 10 are connected together, and the second ends 12 extend to the underarm area and then along the shoulder contour to the back, distributing shoulder pressure through a designed path. The first ends 11 of the shoulder straps 10 can be connected by Velcro or fasteners. The shoulder straps 10 can be made of elastic webbing, non-elastic webbing, or adjustable webbing.
[0045] The limiting member 20 is used to guide the sliding of the shoulder strap 10. The limiting member 20 has a channel 21, which is a linear space passing through the limiting member 20, allowing the second end 12 of the shoulder strap 10 to pass through and slide along the channel 21 to adjust tension. Specifically, it can be a plastic buckle or a metal ring with a through hole, or it can be a sewn-formed fabric loop that can restrain the shoulder strap 10 from moving in a specific direction. In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 The limiting member 20 is made of flexible material and has a transverse channel 21.
[0046] The first ends 11 of the two shoulder straps 10 are connected to each other, that is, the starting ends of the two shoulder straps 10 are fixedly or detachably combined to form a symmetrical force transmission structure. In some embodiments, the first ends 11 of the two shoulder straps 10 are fixedly connected to each other by sewing, which can eventually form a complete shoulder strap 10. In other embodiments, the two shoulder straps 10 can be designed as an integral structure, that is, the first ends 11 of the two shoulder straps 10 are integrally connected.
[0047] The second end 12 of the shoulder strap 10 extends to the underarm area, meaning that the end of the shoulder strap 10 wraps around below the armpit. Extending along the contour of the shoulder to the back means that the shoulder strap 10 conforms to the curve of the shoulder and extends towards the back. This can be achieved by using elastic material to naturally conform to the body, ensuring that the corrective force is evenly distributed.
[0048] The back area movement through the channel 21 means that the shoulder strap 10 slides through the channel 21 of the limiting member 20 at the position of the human back, allowing the shoulder strap 10 to dynamically adjust its tightness when worn.
[0049] When the second end 12 of the shoulder strap 10 extends along the armpit to the back, a sliding channel 21 is formed in the back area. This maintains the continuity of tension transmission of the shoulder strap 10 and avoids the mechanical engagement friction of traditional adjustment buckles. In other words, when the shoulder strap 10 is pulled, the force is directly applied to the entire shoulder strap 10, making the transmission more efficient. The limiting member 20 guides the sliding path of the shoulder strap 10 in the back area through the channel 21, so that the corrective force generated by the shoulder strap 10 is directly applied to the shoulder and back, reducing the force loss caused by friction during the adjustment process.
[0050] The connection structure at the first end 11 of the two shoulder straps 10 and the underarm extension design at the second end 12 form a closed-loop force transmission path. When worn, stable reverse corrective tension can be achieved without relying on a waist belt, significantly improving the corrective effect on rounded shoulders and hunchback. In addition, the second end 12 of the shoulder strap 10 can extend to the hand area after passing through the channel 21 of the limiting member 20, allowing the hand to pull the shoulder strap 10 to adjust its tightness.
[0051] The first ends 11 of the two shoulder straps 10 are connected to each other to form a stable structure. The second end 12 wraps around from under the armpit to the chest, extends along the shoulder contour to the back and crosses through the limiting member 20. This structure makes the tension in the two directions balanced when the shoulder straps 10 are pulled, and the force direction tends to be more horizontal, reducing the tendency to slip in the vertical direction. The shoulder straps 10 fit the contour of the shoulder and back, and the stability is enhanced. Even if the user moves, the shoulder straps 10 can slide through the channel 21 to maintain tension without displacement.
[0052] Shoulder strap 10 wraps from under the armpit to the front of the chest and then extends along the shoulder contour to the back, forming a tension system around the shoulder. Pulling shoulder strap 10 can more effectively pull the shoulder backward, forcibly open the chest cavity, and correct a hunched posture.
[0053] The shoulder straps 10 are designed to conform to the contours of the human shoulder, extending from the chest area to the back area. The channels 21 of the limiting member 20 allow the shoulder straps 10 to slide freely therein, a design that allows the shoulder straps 10 to adjust with the user's movements, maintaining continuous corrective force. By connecting the first ends 11 of the two shoulder straps 10 together, a fixation point can be formed at the back, increasing the stability of the posture corrector 100.
[0054] The shoulder strap 10 is designed to slide freely through the channel 21 in the back area, allowing it to move freely during user movement and avoiding the mechanical friction resistance of traditional adjustment buckles. This design allows the corrective force to be directly transmitted to the shoulder and back area, improving the corrective effect. At the same time, because the shoulder strap 10 can slide freely in the channel 21, the user can easily adjust the corrective force as needed.
[0055] Users can adjust the corrective force by pulling the second end 12 of the shoulder strap 10. The sliding of the shoulder strap 10 within the channel 21 allows for even distribution of corrective force, avoiding excessive localized pressure and solving the mechanical friction resistance problem caused by adjustment buckles in traditional posture corrector straps. Because the shoulder strap 10 can slide freely within the channel 21 of the limiting member 20, the corrective force can be directly transmitted to the shoulder and back area without overcoming the frictional resistance of the adjustment buckle. This design improves the efficiency of corrective force transmission, making it easier for users to adjust and maintain appropriate corrective force. Simultaneously, the elimination of the adjustment buckle reduces localized pressure points, improving wearing comfort. Furthermore, the free sliding of the shoulder strap 10 within the channel 21 allows the posture corrector strap 100 to automatically adjust with the user's movements, maintaining a continuous corrective effect and adapting to different activity scenarios.
[0056] The Posture Corrector 100 is suitable for various scenarios, including office workers who sit for long periods, students for daily use, posture adjustment before and after exercise, and rehabilitation training. The Posture Corrector 100 can improve poor posture, providing effective posture correction support when worn.
[0057] Specifically, for office workers who sit for long periods, prolonged computer work can easily lead to problems such as hunching, forward head posture, and forward neck and shoulder tilt. The Posture Corrector 100 helps users maintain an upright posture and relieves neck and shoulder fatigue through gentle yet continuous traction. For students, especially teenagers who tend to hunch over while studying or writing, the Posture Corrector 100 can help them develop good posture habits and prevent and improve problems such as rounded shoulders and hunchback caused by prolonged poor posture. For sports enthusiasts and fitness enthusiasts, wearing the Posture Corrector 100 before and after training helps activate shoulder and back muscles, improves movement control and body stability, and prevents sports injuries caused by poor posture.
[0058] Without the need for complex structures such as adjustment buckles, users can simply pull the free end (second end 12) of the shoulder strap 10 to tighten the entire strap. The design of the shoulder strap 10 crossing the channel 21 automatically achieves bidirectional tension distribution. The structure is simple, easy to manufacture, maintain and clean, and the user operation is simple, and the wearing and adjustment process is fast and efficient.
[0059] Compared with the prior art, the posture corrector 100 provided in this application embodiment connects the first ends 11 of the shoulder straps 10 to each other, and the second ends 12 of the shoulder straps 10 pass through the armpit area of the human body and extend upward from the chest area along the contour of the human shoulder to the back. They are crossed in the back area and movably pass through the channel 21. When the user pulls the second ends 12 of the two shoulder straps 10, the first ends 11 of the two shoulder straps 10 are subjected to opposite traction forces, and the direction of the force tends to be more horizontal. This can keep the position of the shoulder straps 10 stable and improve the transmission effect of the corrective force. By pulling the second ends 12 of the shoulder straps 10, the entire shoulder strap 10 can be tightened, which can effectively pull the shoulders backward, thereby improving hunchback. This method improves the transmission efficiency and stability of the corrective force and improves the corrective effect. The user only needs to manually pull the free end of the shoulder strap 10 to complete the overall adjustment. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient.
[0060] Please refer to some embodiments of this application. Figure 7 The posture correction strap 100 also includes a support member 30, and the first ends 11 of the two shoulder straps 10 are respectively fixedly connected to the support member 30.
[0061] The support member 30 serves as the fixed base for the shoulder straps 10. By fixing the first ends 11 of the two shoulder straps 10 to both sides of the support member 30, the symmetrical distribution of the shoulder straps 10 in the back area of the human body is ensured. When the second ends 12 of the shoulder straps 10 are tightened, the support member 30 bears the tension from the shoulder straps 10 on both sides and distributes the tension evenly to the back area, preventing slippage at the connection point due to uneven force.
[0062] The support member 30 is typically made of a material with a certain degree of rigidity or elasticity, conforming to the curve of the back. It can be made of a stiffer fabric or a softer plastic plate. The first ends 11 of the two shoulder straps 10 can be fixed to both sides of the support member 30 by sewing or gluing, and the fixing positions are symmetrically distributed. By providing a stable fixing structure, the support member 30 can avoid problems such as left-right asymmetry and uneven tension that may be caused by the free movement of the shoulder straps 10 during use, thereby enhancing the force transmission efficiency of the shoulder straps 10 during the correction process and improving the correction effect.
[0063] By adding a support member 30 to the posture correction strap 100 and fixing the first ends 11 of the two shoulder straps 10 to the support member 30 respectively, the connection strength between the shoulder straps 10 and the support member 30 can be improved, preventing the shoulder straps 10 from coming off or loosening during use. As a force concentration point, the support member 30 can concentrate the tension of the shoulder straps 10 in the central area of the back (such as between the scapulae). This concentrated force helps to more effectively pull the scapulae backward and towards the midline, thereby improving hunchback and rounded shoulders. In addition, the support member 30 can also distribute the pressure of the shoulder straps 10 on the user's shoulders, improving wearing comfort.
[0064] Please refer to some embodiments of this application. Figure 7 The limiting member 20 is connected to the support member 30.
[0065] The limiting member 20 is fixed to the shoulder strap, forming a stable traction point. The second end 12 of the shoulder strap 10 slides and adjusts after passing through the limiting member 20, making it less prone to slippage or misalignment. The shoulder strap 10, the limiting member 20, and the support member 30 form a structural unit, which can prevent the limiting member 20 from shifting or shaking during use, thereby improving the structural stability of the shoulder strap system, ensuring the consistency of the sliding path of the shoulder strap 10, and helping to maintain the uniform transmission of corrective force.
[0066] The limiting member 20 can be attached to the top, bottom, or middle area of the carrying strap; the limiting member 20 and the carrying strap can be fixed by sewing, gluing, or buckling. The limiting member 20 can form a rigid or flexible connection with the carrying strap to adapt to different back curvatures.
[0067] The limiting member 20 can be a plastic part with a channel 21, which is directly embedded into the fabric structure of the strap through a hot pressing process; the limiting member 20 can also be fabric, which is directly sewn onto the surface of the strap; or it can be a metal ring, which is firmly sewn onto the surface of the strap with stitches.
[0068] By connecting the limiting member 20 to the support member 30, the intersection point of the shoulder strap 10 on the back is located near the center line of the back, making the pulling direction of the shoulder strap 10 more symmetrical, making it easier to form a horizontal traction force, effectively pulling the shoulder backward, reducing ineffective vertical force, and improving the utilization efficiency of the corrective force.
[0069] When the support member 30 carries the fixed connection of the first end 11 of the shoulder strap 10, the sliding friction generated when the shoulder strap 10 passes through the channel 21 of the limiting member 20 directly acts on the entire support member 30, avoiding tension loss caused by the displacement of the limiting member 20.
[0070] The support member 30 conforms to the curve of the human back, and the limiting member 20 is connected to it, which makes the sliding path of the shoulder strap 10 more in line with the shoulder contour, avoiding the local pressure or friction discomfort caused by the limiting member 20 being suspended or misaligned; at the same time, when the shoulder strap 10 slides in the channel 21 of the limiting member 20, its movement trajectory is more stable, and the shoulder strap 10 will not be pulled or misaligned due to the movement of the limiting member 20, making the overall wearing experience more natural, comfortable and fit.
[0071] The connection between the limiting component 20 and the carrying strap simplifies the overall structure of the posture correction carrying strap 100, facilitates production and assembly, and reduces manufacturing costs. Furthermore, this connection method enhances the durability of the posture correction carrying strap 100 and extends the product's lifespan.
[0072] Please refer to some embodiments of this application. Figure 7The first end 11 of the shoulder strap 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom area of the support member 30, and the limiting member 20 is connected to the top area of the support member 30.
[0073] The top region can be understood as the region near the top of the support member 30, and the bottom region can be understood as the region near the bottom of the support member 30. The two can also be divided by the horizontal center line of the support member 30. On this horizontal center line, the support member 30 is divided into two equal parts, the upper part being the top region and the lower part being the bottom region.
[0074] By defining the relative position of the first end 11 of the shoulder strap 10 and the limiting member 20, the extension path and force direction of the shoulder strap 10 on the support member 30 can be adjusted. The first end 11 of the shoulder strap 10 is fixed to the bottom of the support member 30, and the limiting member 20 is located at the top. When the shoulder strap 10 is tightened, the pulling force is from bottom to top, which helps to naturally pull the shoulder backward and upward. The upward pulling force is more in line with the natural movement trend of the human scapula (scapula upward rotation and retraction), making it easier to open the shoulder and improve problems such as rounded shoulders and hunched back. The shoulder strap 10 runs from bottom to top, which fits the curve of the armpit and shoulder more closely and reduces the risk of slipping, making it especially suitable for sports or frequent activities. At the same time, the upward pulling force makes the back muscles more evenly stressed, reduces local pressure, and improves the comfort of wearing for a long time.
[0075] In some embodiments of this application, the first end 11 of the shoulder strap 10 is fixedly connected to the top region of the support member 30, and the limiting member 20 is connected to the bottom region of the support member 30.
[0076] The first end 11 of the shoulder strap 10 is fixed to the top area of the support member 30, and the limiting member 20 is located in the bottom area of the support member 30, forming an upper and lower separation layout. The shoulder strap 10 extends downward from the top to the limiting member 20. The extension path of the shoulder strap 10 in the back area forms an angle from top to bottom, so that the direction of the pulling force is closer to the midline of the spine.
[0077] The top-fixed design enhances the fit and stability of the shoulder straps 10 on the shoulders. The shoulder straps 10 form a symmetrical V-shaped or inverted V-shaped extension trajectory in the back area, so that the two shoulder straps 10 generate mutually balanced torques when subjected to force. The limiting member 20 is set in the bottom area of the support member 30, close to the waist or underarm, so that the user can operate and adjust it while wearing the garment.
[0078] The shoulder strap 10 extends from the top of the support 30. That is, when the shoulder strap 10 extends from the back to the shoulder, it is closer to the upper part of the shoulder. When the user pulls the free end of the shoulder strap 10, the pulling force acts on the shoulder strap 10 from bottom to top, forming a backward and upward traction force. The direction of this force helps to more directly pull the shoulder joint backward, improve the posture problems of rounded shoulders and forward head tilt, and has a more obvious corrective effect on shoulder adduction and forward-leaning hunchback.
[0079] Please refer to some embodiments of this application. Figures 5 to 7 The orthographic projection area of the limiting member 20 on the support member 30 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection area of the first end 11 of the two shoulder straps 10 on the support member 30.
[0080] The first end 11 of the shoulder strap 10 is fixed close to the position of the limiting member 20, which makes the tension path of the shoulder strap 10 shorter and more concentrated, improving the transmission efficiency of the corrective force. That is, when the projection area of the limiting member 20 and the shoulder strap 10 overlaps, the point of force application can be concentrated, enhancing the local correction effect. The shoulder strap 10 starts from a certain point of the support member 30, passes through the limiting member 20 and is tightened. The path is short and concentrated, the force is more direct, energy loss is reduced, and it helps to form symmetrical traction force, making the shoulders more naturally extended and the effect of correcting hunchback and rounded shoulders more obvious.
[0081] The limiting member 20 is close to the fixing point of the shoulder strap 10, which can effectively control the sliding path of the shoulder strap 10 and prevent the shoulder strap 10 from shifting or slipping. The structure is concentrated on the support member 30, and the tension of the shoulder strap 10 is concentrated in a local area of the support member 30. In particular, when the starting point of the shoulder strap 10 coincides with or is close to the limiting member 20, the direction of the tension tends to be horizontal, which improves the transmission effect of the corrective force.
[0082] In some embodiments of this application, the orthographic projection area of the limiting member 20 on the support member 30 covers the orthographic projection area of the first ends 11 of the two shoulder straps 10 on the support member 30.
[0083] The limiting member 20 can be designed to be larger in size, so that its projected area on the support member 30 is larger than the projected area of the first end 11 of the shoulder strap 10. When viewed from the back, the projection of the limiting member 20 completely covers the projection of the first end 11 of the shoulder strap 10. When the projected area of the limiting member 20 covers the shoulder strap 10, the range of force can be dispersed, improving comfort.
[0084] The starting point of the shoulder strap 10 is located within the projection area of the limiting member 20. The path from the starting point of the shoulder strap 10 to the limiting member 20 is relatively short, which helps to form a uniform traction force, enhances the effect of pulling the shoulders back, and significantly improves problems such as hunchback, rounded shoulders, etc.
[0085] The shoulder strap 10 starts close to the limiting component 20, resulting in a shorter sliding path, more sensitive adjustment, and more direct feedback, making it easier for users to adjust the tightness according to their body shape. Simultaneously, the starting point of the shoulder strap 10 and the limiting component 20 are integrated into one area, reducing the complexity and bulk of the back structure and improving the fit and lightness when wearing the garment. The tension direction of the shoulder strap 10 is closer to horizontal, improving the transmission of corrective force.
[0086] In some embodiments of this application, the orthographic projection area of the first ends 11 of the two shoulder straps 10 on the support member 30 covers the orthographic projection area of the limiting member 20 on the support member 30.
[0087] The limiting member 20 is surrounded by the starting point of the shoulder strap 10 and is subjected to pulling forces from both sides, making its structure more stable and less prone to swaying or shifting. As the center point of the channel 21, the limiting member 20 makes the sliding path of the two shoulder straps 10 more symmetrical, and the traction force is applied more evenly to both shoulders, preventing slippage on one side or uneven tension.
[0088] The shoulder strap 10 is pulled from the outside in, conforming to the curve of the human shoulder, reducing the risk of slippage or pressure, and improving wearing comfort. The outward pulling force is more in line with the natural force direction of the shoulder muscles, making the shoulder strap 10 fit the underarm and shoulder contours better, reducing local pressure.
[0089] The shoulder strap 10 has a horizontal tension direction, which improves the transmission effect of the corrective force. The support member 30 acts as a force-bearing platform to bear the traction force. The structure is concentrated on the support member 30, and the tension is concentrated in the back area. When the projection area of the shoulder strap 10 covers the limiting member 20, the force-bearing area of the shoulder strap 10 can be increased, and the stability of the correction can be improved.
[0090] The above technical solution allows for a reasonable spatial arrangement between the shoulder strap 10 and the limiting member 20, improving the wearing comfort of the posture correction strap 100. Simultaneously, the shoulder strap 10 and the limiting member 20 can be connected to different areas of the support member 30, increasing the overall structural strength of the posture correction strap 100 and extending its service life.
[0091] Please refer to some embodiments of this application. Figure 1 and Figure 11 The second ends 12 of the two shoulder straps 10 cross and pass through the channel 21 in the back area.
[0092] By setting a limiting member 20 in the back area and having the second ends 12 of the two shoulder straps 10 cross-pass through the channel 21 of the limiting member 20, the tension applied to the shoulder straps 10 can be effectively dispersed, the friction between the shoulder straps 10 and the human body contact surface can be reduced, and more tension can be transmitted to the shoulder straps 10 worn on the body, thereby forming a more continuous and effective reverse corrective tension.
[0093] The symmetrical, crisscrossing tension helps the shoulders to symmetrically pull back, significantly improving poor posture such as rounded shoulders and hunchback. The crisscross structure allows the two shoulder straps 10 to create symmetrical, opposing traction forces on the back, effectively opening the chest cavity and straightening the spine. After one shoulder strap 10 passes through the channel 21 of the limiting member 20, the other strap passes through from the other side, forming a mutually restraining structure that enhances path control during wear.
[0094] When the user adjusts the tightness of the shoulder straps 10, the second ends 12 of the two shoulder straps 10 slide synchronously along the channel 21 in a cross-threaded state. The cross structure makes the two shoulder straps 10 mutually restrain each other, preventing the shoulder strap 10 on one side from shifting due to overstretching. The cross-threading method further optimizes the movement trajectory of the shoulder straps 10 in the channel 21, so that the two shoulder straps 10 on both sides always maintain a symmetrical distribution during the sliding process, thereby improving the stability of the posture correction strap 100 in wrapping the shoulder area of the human body.
[0095] The force generated by the cross-strap design can decompose the longitudinal tension borne by the shoulder strap 10, allowing the corrective force applied to the shoulder to be more evenly distributed in the back area, avoiding excessive local pressure that could cause discomfort. By adjusting the cross angle, the sliding stroke and tension distribution ratio of the shoulder strap 10 within the channel 21 can be controlled, achieving linear adjustment of the corrective force.
[0096] The crisscross structure allows the shoulder strap 10 to conform more naturally to the armpits, shoulders, and back. The shoulder strap 10 crisscrosses through the channel 21 of the limiting member 20, helping to enhance the limiting member 20's control over the shoulder strap 10 and making its sliding path more stable. The crisscrossing design allows the limiting member 20 to control both shoulder straps 10 simultaneously, improving its guiding and limiting functions and preventing the shoulder strap 10 from shifting or becoming misaligned.
[0097] Please refer to some embodiments of this application. Figure 6 The channel 21 includes a first channel 211 and a second channel 212 that are arranged in a cross manner. The second ends 12 of the two shoulder straps 10 pass through the first channel 211 and the second channel 212 respectively, and are slidably arranged along the first channel 211 and the second channel 212 respectively.
[0098] Two intersecting channels 211 and 212 can be provided inside or on the surface of the limiting member 20; alternatively, the limiting member 20 can be fixed to the support member 30, retaining the through opening of the two channels 21, forming the first channel 211 and the second channel 212 by enclosing it with the support member 30. Alternatively, the limiting member 20 can adopt a rectangular plate structure with two intersecting channels 21 on the rectangular plate. The first channel 211 and the second channel 212 are intersected, with an intersection angle of 90 degrees or 120 degrees, etc. The width of the two channels 21 is slightly larger than the width of the shoulder strap 10, allowing the shoulder strap 10 to slide freely within the channels 21. The second end 12 of the shoulder strap 10 passes through one end of the first channel 211 and the second channel 212 respectively, and exits from the other end. Thus, the two shoulder straps 10 form an intersecting structure on the back, each independently guiding the sliding of one shoulder strap 10.
[0099] Each shoulder strap 10 has an independent channel 21, preventing two shoulder straps 10 from interfering with or tangling in the same channel 21. The independent channel 21 design makes the sliding path of each shoulder strap 10 clearer and more stable, reducing uneven sliding resistance or jamming caused by cross-threading. In dynamic use (such as sports), it is more conducive to maintaining the traction stability of the shoulder straps 10.
[0100] When the first channel 211 and the second channel 212 are arranged in a cross configuration, the two shoulder straps 10 slide along their respective channels 21 without interfering with each other. During the transmission of tension, only the frictional resistance of one side of the channel 21 needs to be overcome. Each shoulder strap 10 slides through an independent channel 21, allowing the user to adjust the tightness on both sides separately to accommodate different body types or asymmetrical postures. The cross structure of the dual channels 21 enables the limiting element 20 to more effectively guide the sliding direction of the shoulder straps 10, preventing them from slipping or deviating. The cross channels 21 guide the shoulder straps 10 to form symmetrical traction, which helps to open the chest cavity, correct rounded shoulders, and improve hunchback.
[0101] Please refer to some embodiments of this application. Figure 8 and Figure 9 The limiting member 20 includes at least two limiting buckles 22, which are connected at intervals to the first end 11 of the shoulder strap 10. The limiting buckles 22 are provided with channels 21, through which the second ends 12 of the two shoulder straps 10 pass respectively.
[0102] The spaced-apart stop buckles 22, through the separation channel 21, allow the two shoulder straps 10 to move independently during sliding, reducing adjustment resistance. The stop buckles 22 can be a ring structure with the channel 21 located at the center; alternatively, the stop buckles 22 and the shoulder straps 10 can enclose each other to form the channel 21. When spaced-apart stop buckles 22 are used, each stop buckle 22 corresponds to one shoulder strap 10. The shoulder strap 10 slides independently after passing through the channel 21 of the stop buckle 22, significantly reducing tension attenuation during adjustment. Both implementations reduce the total frictional resistance by separating the sliding paths of the shoulder straps 10, allowing the applied tension to be converted into corrective tension more efficiently.
[0103] The positioning buckles 22 are spaced apart, forming two independent constraint points. When the shoulder strap 10 passes through different positioning buckles 22, its sliding trajectory naturally separates. Multiple positioning buckles 22 can be set, arranged in two rows, allowing the second ends 12 of the two shoulder straps 10 to pass through multiple positioning buckles 22 respectively, forming a crisscross arrangement. By setting multiple positioning buckles 22, the limiting and guiding effect on the shoulder straps 10 is further enhanced, making the shoulder straps 10 form a more stable crisscross structure on the back. This achieves the crisscross arrangement of the shoulder straps 10 on the back, enhancing the support for the user's upper body. Simultaneously, the shoulder straps 10 can slide freely within the channel 21, allowing them to automatically adjust their tightness according to the user's body movements during use, improving the comfort and adaptability of the posture corrector 100.
[0104] In some embodiments of this application, the second ends 12 of the two shoulder straps 10 are detachably connected to each other.
[0105] The two shoulder straps 10 are connected at their ends to form a symmetrical traction structure, which helps the shoulders to naturally extend backward and significantly improves poor posture such as hunchback, rounded shoulders, and slouching. The second ends 12 of the two shoulder straps 10 can be freely connected and separated by means of buckles, magnets, Velcro, snaps, straps, etc.
[0106] The shoulder strap 10 forms a closed-loop structure after the ends are connected, enhancing the stability of the overall structure and preventing the shoulder strap 10 from slipping or deviating. Traction can be achieved simply by connecting the ends of the shoulder strap 10, simplifying the overall structure. This connection method allows the tension of the shoulder strap 10 to act directly on the human shoulder, avoiding tension loss caused by friction from the adjustment buckle.
[0107] The detachable connection supports multiple adjustment levels, allowing users to freely adjust the tightness of the shoulder straps 10 according to their body type, clothing thickness, or correction intensity. The connection points can be designed with multiple buckle holes or adjustable Velcro for easy multi-level tension control. The detachable connection makes it easier for users to put on and take off the posture corrector 100, and also facilitates cleaning, component replacement, or localized adjustments.
[0108] Please refer to some embodiments of this application. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 10 The second end 12 of the shoulder strap 10 is provided with a first connecting part 121, and the shoulder strap 10 is provided with a second connecting part 13 near the chest area. The first connecting part 121 and the second connecting part 13 are detachably connected.
[0109] The first connecting part 121 is located at the second end 12 of the shoulder strap 10, and can be configured as a buckle, magnetic closure, Velcro, snap fastener, etc. The second connecting part 13 is located in the corresponding connecting structure in the middle area of the shoulder strap 10, and is used to cooperate with the first connecting part 121.
[0110] After the second end 12 of the shoulder strap 10 passes through the channel 21 of the limiting member 20, it is connected to the second connecting part 13 in the middle through the first connecting part 121 to form a closed loop structure, which can realize the self-locking adjustment of the length of the shoulder strap 10.
[0111] The user simply tightens the shoulder strap 10 and then fastens the first connecting part 121 to the second connecting part 13 to lock the current tension. The connection at the middle of the shoulder strap 10 ensures more even distribution of tension, reducing pressure on specific areas of the shoulder or back. The detachable connection allows the user to quickly put on and take off the posture corrector 100 and make minor adjustments based on body shape or the thickness of clothing.
[0112] When the corrective force needs to be adjusted, the user only needs to disconnect the first connecting part 121 from the second connecting part 13 and reposition the second connecting part 13, without continuously pulling the free end of the shoulder strap 10. This connection method allows the tension of the shoulder strap 10 to act directly on the human shoulder, avoiding the loss of tension caused by friction from the adjustment buckle.
[0113] The above technical solution enables the posture corrector 100 to be quickly put on and taken off. This allows users to adjust the tightness of the posture corrector 100 as needed, improving flexibility and comfort. The detachable design allows the posture corrector 100 to adapt to users of different body types, enhancing the product's versatility.
[0114] Please refer to some embodiments of this application. Figures 1 to 12 The posture corrector belt is 100 (excluding the waist belt).
[0115] The posture corrector 100 described in this application does not include a waist belt. The sling structure is lighter, allowing users greater flexibility in sitting, bending, and turning movements, resulting in a more natural and pressure-free wearing experience. The sling is more adaptable and suitable for a wider range of body types; it can be worn under clothing or under various garments (such as T-shirts, shirts, and sportswear) without affecting appearance or comfort.
[0116] Since no waist belt is provided, the corrective force generated by the shoulder strap 10 is directly transmitted to the shoulder through the spatial arrangement of the support member 30 and the limiting member 20, avoiding the force attenuation caused by the linkage between the waist belt and the shoulder strap 10 in the traditional design.
[0117] For posture issues such as rounded shoulders, hunched back, and slight kyphosis, effective correction can be achieved simply through the shoulder straps 10 and the back support structure. Without a waist belt, the strap structure is simpler, the manufacturing process is easier, there are fewer potential points of failure, and the product is more durable.
[0118] When worn, the support 30 is positioned in the central area of the back. The second ends 12 of the two shoulder straps 10 extend upwards to the back after passing under the armpits. Corrective tension is created by adjusting the length of the shoulder straps 10 that cross through the channel 21. The entire posture corrector 100 does not have any band-like components or fixing structures around the waist. This avoids the additional frictional resistance caused by the waist area being constricted, allowing the corrective force transmitted by the shoulder straps 10 to act entirely on the shoulder and back area. Since there is no need to adjust the waist fixing structure, the wearing process is simplified, and the direction of application of the corrective force is constrained in the mechanical transmission path between the shoulder straps 10 and the limiting member 20, forming a continuous and stable reverse traction effect.
[0119] Please see Figures 13 to 16 This application provides a posture correction belt 200, including a waist belt 210 and a posture correction back strap 100 as described above.
[0120] By setting the waist belt 210, the pelvic position can be fixed, the lower back can be stabilized, and it can work in conjunction with the shoulder and back correction force to achieve overall posture adjustment from the shoulders to the back and then to the waist, resulting in a more comprehensive and lasting correction effect.
[0121] The waist belt 210 may be provided with a connecting portion protruding towards the back so that the first end 11 of the shoulder strap 10 can be connected, keeping the first end 11 of the shoulder strap 10 located in the back area after wearing; in addition, a support member 30 may be provided, which is connected to the waist belt 210, and the first end 11 of the shoulder strap 10 is connected to the support member 30. In some embodiments, such as Figure 15 The waist belt 210 has a protruding back connection part 220. The limiting member 20 of the posture correction belt 200 is connected to the back connection part 220. At the same time, the first end 11 of the shoulder strap 10 of the posture correction belt 200 is also connected to the back connection part 220.
[0122] The posture correction harness 100 and waist belt 210 are combined to correct upper body posture. It not only retains the posture correction harness 100's advantages in correcting shoulder and back posture, but also enhances the overall structural stability through the waist belt 210. It is suitable for high-demand scenarios such as moderate to severe posture problems, rehabilitation training, and sports protection.
[0123] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
