[0019] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Rather, the embodiments of the present invention include all variations, modifications, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

[0020] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, describes a knee joint protective brace according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0021] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the knee joint protective brace of this utility model embodiment may include a thigh support 10, a calf support 20, two mounting components 40 and multiple strap components 60. The inner sides of the thigh support 10 and the calf support 20 are provided with skin-friendly pads 11, and the two sides of the thigh support 10 are provided with connecting shells 30. The mounting components 40 are hinged to the connecting shells 30, and the two ends of the mounting components 40 are respectively provided on the thigh support 10 and the calf support 20.

[0022] The front of the thigh support 10 and the calf support 20 is provided with an elastic fabric 51. The elastic fabric 51 is provided with a protrusion 52 and a dense array of ventilation holes 53. Both ends of the elastic fabric 51 are provided with a first Velcro 54. The two connecting shells 30 are respectively provided with a first Velcro 55 that mates with the first Velcro 54. Multiple strap assemblies 60 are respectively provided on the thigh support 10 and the calf support 20.

[0023] It should be noted that the protrusion 52 is made of silicone material, which is soft and elastic. The protrusion 52 has a gap with the user's knee, which can provide protection for it.

[0024] Specifically, the user first adjusts the distance between the thigh support 10 and the calf support 20 by operating the four installation components 40 to suit the patient's needs. Then, the first Velcro 54 at one end of the elastic fabric 51 is peeled off from the first Velcro 55, and the binding of the strap assembly 60 is released. Subsequently, the thigh support 10 and the calf support 20 are installed on the back of the user's thigh and calf respectively, so that the skin-friendly pad 11 fits the patient's leg.

[0025] The user then uses multiple strap components 60 to securely fasten the thigh support 10 and the calf support 20 to their leg. The first Velcro 54 at one end of the elastic fabric 51 is then attached to the first Velcro 55. The protrusion 52 is located in front of the user's knee and has a certain gap, providing protection for the knee. During activities, even if the knee accidentally hits the protrusion 52, it will not cause obvious discomfort. The ventilation hole 53 can accelerate air circulation and enhance user comfort. During the user's daily activities of bending their leg, the two mounting components 40 will move with the thigh support 10 and the calf support 20 to adapt to the angle changes when the knee joint is bent.

[0026] The knee joint protective brace of this utility model can provide effective protection for the knee joint, thereby effectively reducing the risk of secondary injury caused by external impact or fall.

[0027] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 As shown, a rotating shaft 31 is rotatably disposed inside the connecting shell 30, and the connecting shell 30 has two arc-shaped holes 32. The mounting assembly 40 passes through the two arc-shaped holes 32 respectively and is connected to the rotating shaft 31.

[0028] It should be noted that during the user's daily activities of bending their legs, the two mounting components 40 will move with the thigh support 10 and the calf support 20 in conjunction with the pivot 31. The arc-shaped hole 32 allows the mounting components 40 to move within a certain range to adapt to the angle changes when the knee joint is bent.

[0029] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the mounting assembly 40 includes two mounting plates 41 and two fixing bolts 42. The two mounting plates 41 are respectively connected to the rotating shaft 31, and the two fixing bolts 42 are respectively set on the corresponding mounting plates 41. Both sides of the thigh support 10 and the calf support 20 are provided with multiple threaded holes 12, and the two fixing bolts 42 are respectively threaded to the corresponding threaded holes 12.

[0030] It should be noted that when it is necessary to adjust the distance between the thigh support 10 and the calf support 20 to accommodate different patient body shapes, the user first uses a screwdriver to loosen the four fixing bolts 42 to separate the fixing bolts 42 from the threaded holes 12. Then, the fixing bolts 42 on the mounting plate 41 are aligned with the new threaded holes 12, and the user uses a screwdriver to loosen the four fixing bolts 42 to screw them into the new threaded holes 12.

[0031] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 1As shown, the strap assembly 60 includes a strap 61, a second Velcro 62, and a second Velcro 63. One end of the strap 61 is disposed on the thigh support 10, and the other end is connected to the second Velcro 62. The second Velcro 63 is disposed on the thigh support 10 and cooperates with the second Velcro 62.

[0032] It should be noted that the surface of the second Velcro 63 is composed of small fibers, while the surface of the second Velcro 62 has many tiny hooks. When the two come into contact, the small hooks of the second Velcro 62 will tightly wrap around the small fibers of the second Velcro 63, thereby achieving the function of adhesive fixation. During the wearing of this brace, the user first peels each second Velcro 62 off the second Velcro 63. After wearing the brace, the user then sticks the second Velcro 62 back onto the second Velcro 63. By sticking the second Velcro 62 to different parts of the second Velcro 63, the tightness can be controlled.

[0033] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, multiple buffer strips 56 are provided on the inner side of the elastic fabric 51.

[0034] It should be noted that the cushioning strip 56 is made of elastic material. During the patient's activities, the cushioning strip 56 conforms to the skin, providing additional cushioning protection and improving the comfort of wearing it for a long time.

[0035] In summary, the knee joint protective brace of this utility model can provide effective protection for the knee joint, thereby effectively reducing the risk of secondary injury caused by external impact or fall.
