[0022] Furthermore, the fixing mechanism includes a fixing rod 17 and a fixing insert rod 10. One end of the fixing insert rod 10 is fixedly connected to a connecting block 4, which allows for quick fixing or disassembly of the connecting cover 5, thereby enabling quick replacement of the connecting piece 7. The fixing rod 17 is movably inserted into the top of the fixing block 3, and the fixing insert rod 10 is movably inserted into the sides of the fixing rod 17 and the fixing block 3.
[0023] Furthermore, a limiting slide post 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the control cover 6, so that the inner side of the positioning rod 13 can better fit the groove on the outer side of the knob block 14. A limiting groove is opened inside the top of the knob block 14, and the side of the limiting slide post 12 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove.
[0024] Furthermore, a positioning pin 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing block 3, which facilitates the quick docking and fixing of the connecting cover 5, and also increases the resistance to the downward movement of the connecting cover 5. The bottom of the connecting cover 5 is provided with an insertion groove, and the positioning pin 8 is movably inserted into the inner wall of the insertion groove.
[0025] Furthermore, a snap-fit rod 9 is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing block 3, which further improves the stability of the fixing rod 10 when it is inserted. The end of the connecting block 4 away from the fixing rod 10 is movably snapped onto the surface of the snap-fit rod 9.

[0029] Working principle: This device can be fixed to the foot and leg sleeve with screws through the connecting strip 1 and connecting piece 7. The style of the connecting piece 7 can be changed to meet the fixation operation of different foot. When the patient needs to replace the connecting piece 7, he only needs to remove the fixing rod 10 from the fixing rod 17 through the connecting block 4 to achieve a quick replacement operation. When the patient needs to adjust the ankle joint angle or needs to perform ankle joint rotation rehabilitation treatment, he can lift the control cover 6 to pull the positioning rod 13 out of the slot at the top of the connecting cover 5. At this time, the connecting piece 7 is in a movable state. When the patient needs to fix the ankle joint, he only needs to press the control cover 6. The control cover 6 limits and fixes the knob block 14 through the positioning rod 13, so that the connecting piece 7 cannot be rotated.
