[0021] The working principle and usage of this utility model are as follows: Protective plate 101, protective plate 103, and protective plate 4 cover the proximal region of the humerus, providing external support and protection for the fracture site. Protective plate 101 is connected to protective plate 103 via connecting rope 102, forming a ring structure. Protective plate 4 is connected to the connecting cylinder 2 on the protective assembly 1 via an adjusting frame 3, used to support the injured area. The outer wall of the adjusting frame 3 is slidably connected to the inside of the connecting cylinder 2. By rotating the rotating rod 14 connected to the outside of the connecting cylinder 2, the gear 15 is driven to rotate, thereby adjusting the meshing rack 13, allowing the adjusting frame 3 to slide within the connecting cylinder 2. This enables fine-tuning and movement of the protective plate 4, thus achieving precise positioning of the support area according to the patient's arm length and fracture location. Effectively adapting to the upper limb contours of patients with different body types, the connecting strap 501 and connecting strap 502 are then slung diagonally over the shoulder. The Velcro loop 505 is then attached to the Velcro hook 504. With the setting of the connecting frame 503, the Velcro loop 505 can slide and adjust on its surface, thus achieving adaptability to patients of different body shapes and solving the problem of the protective plate easily slipping off after long-term wear. By pulling the telescopic rod 10, one end of it rotates on the fixed frame 9, and the other end of the telescopic rod 10 rotates in the middle of the slider 11, thereby enabling the slider 11 to slide on the inner wall of the slide groove 12. This allows the damping shaft 7 on one side of the support plate 8 to rotate inside the fixed sleeve 6, thereby enabling the support plate 8 to be angled and provide support for the patient's armpit at different angles.
