Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of thoracic surgery nursing aids, specifically a thoracic surgery nursing aid. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of thoracic surgery techniques, the level of precision in postoperative rehabilitation care has a significant impact on the speed of patient recovery. Thoracic surgery patients have wounds on their chest after surgery and need to maintain a comfortable position for a long time to reduce traction pain. At the same time, they need to stabilize and fix their bodies to prevent unconscious movements from causing the wound to reopen. Traditional care often relies on simple tools such as ordinary cushions and cotton bandages, which cannot meet the comprehensive needs of "precise position adjustment, personalized fixation, and wound protection".

[0003] When using existing thoracic surgery nursing aids, (1) Poor flexibility in body position adjustment, mostly fixed angle support structure, unable to accurately adjust the angle according to the patient's recovery stage, and the adjustment process requires the assistance of many people, which can easily pull on the wound and cause pain; (2) The patient fixation and wound protection design are disconnected. The fixation straps are mostly rigid restraints, lacking a buffer structure, which can easily compress the wound or cause poor local blood circulation. Moreover, they cannot be adjusted according to the patient's body shape, resulting in poor fixation effect.

[0004] To address the above problems, this utility model provides a thoracic surgery nursing aid. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a thoracic surgery nursing aid that can achieve automatic and precise adjustment of body position, patient body shape adaptation and fixation, and flexible wound protection, thereby solving the problems of inflexible body position adjustment and disconnect between fixation and wound protection in existing nursing aids.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a thoracic surgery nursing aid, comprising a fixed base and an automatic adjustment component, wherein the top of the fixed base is fixedly connected to the automatic adjustment component, and the automatic adjustment component includes a connecting base fixedly connected to the top of the fixed base; A U-shaped frame is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting seat, a motor box is fixedly connected to one side of the U-shaped frame, a servo motor is fixedly connected inside the motor box, a transmission rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor, and a rotating plate is fixedly connected to the surface of the transmission rod.

[0007] Furthermore, one side of the rotating plate is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped frame, and a high-strength threaded rod is rotatably connected inside the rotating plate, so that the rotating plate can rotate around the inner wall of the U-shaped frame, and the overall angle can be adjusted in conjunction with the transmission rod; the high-strength threaded rod provides a moving track for the sliding block, and the horizontal position of the sliding block is adjusted through the threaded transmission, thereby driving the protective fixing component to adapt to the chest width of patients of different body types. Furthermore, a bearing is fixedly connected to one side of the high-strength threaded rod, and one end of the bearing is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rotating plate. A control panel is fixedly connected to the other side of the high-strength threaded rod, and a sliding block is threadedly connected to the surface of the high-strength threaded rod. This allows the bearing to reduce the frictional resistance when the high-strength threaded rod rotates, ensuring smooth rotation of the threaded rod and preventing uneven movement of the sliding block due to jamming. The control panel allows personnel to manually rotate the threaded rod and precisely control the movement distance of the sliding block. The sliding block can move horizontally along the surface of the threaded rod, providing an installation base for the protective fixing components and enabling position adjustment. Furthermore, a protective fixing component is fixedly connected to the surface of the automatic adjustment component. The protective fixing component includes a sliding plate fixedly connected to the surface of the automatic adjustment component. The sliding plate is fixedly connected to the surface of the sliding block. A protective cotton plate is fixedly connected to the middle of the top of the sliding plate, so that the sliding plate moves synchronously with the sliding block, thereby adjusting the position of the entire protective fixing component. The protective cotton plate is made of 3-5cm thick medical memory foam material, which fits the patient's back and lower chest, providing flexible support for the body and avoiding discomfort caused by direct contact with hard structures, while reducing the pressure on the skin around the wound.

[0008] Furthermore, a fixing block is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the sliding plate, and a locking seat is fixedly connected to the other side of the top of the sliding plate. This achieves the purpose of the fixing block providing a fixed end point for the protective belt, ensuring that one end of the protective belt is in a stable position. The locking seat cooperates with the buckle to realize the quick fastening and disassembly of the other end of the protective belt, making it convenient for patients to put on and take off the belt independently or with the assistance of medical staff, thus improving the ease of operation. Furthermore, a protective strap is fixedly connected to the top of the fixing block, and a buckle is fixedly connected to the surface of the protective strap, so that the protective strap can wrap around the patient's chest and engage with the buckle and the seat to fix the body and prevent the patient from unconsciously pulling on the wound; the protective strap is made of elastic medical fabric, which has a certain degree of elasticity to adapt to different chest circumferences, while avoiding the discomfort caused by rigid restraint. Furthermore, a protective airbag is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the protective band, and a transmission tube is connected through the middle of the top of the protective band. An airbag for inflating the protective airbag is connected through the top of the transmission tube. This allows the protective airbag to inflate and expand, conforming to the area around the patient's chest wound to form a flexible buffer layer, preventing the protective band from directly compressing the wound. The transmission tube serves as a gas transmission channel, allowing personnel to control the inflation volume of the airbag through the airbag, achieving personalized wound protection and reducing pain and pressure.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model provides a thoracic surgery nursing aid. (1) By setting the automatic adjustment component, when the personnel operate the device, the servo motor is started and the transmission rod drives the rotating plate to rotate around the inner wall of the U-shaped frame, and accurately adjusts it to the position required by the patient. If it is necessary to adapt to the patient's chest width, the control plate is manually rotated and the high-strength threaded rod rotates smoothly under the support of the bearing, which drives the sliding block to move horizontally along the threaded rod, thereby adjusting the position of the protective fixing component. No multiple people are needed to assist, and the adjustment process avoids pulling on the wound.

[0010] (2) By setting up the protective fixing components, when the personnel operate the device, the patient's body is placed on the protective cotton board, which provides flexible support; the protective belt is pulled around the chest and the buckle is fastened into the seat to achieve fixation. The elastic fabric of the protective belt is adapted to different chest circumferences. Then, the protective airbag is inflated through the transmission tube until the airbag fits around the wound and the patient does not feel pressure, forming a flexible wound protection, which ensures the body is fixed and stable, and avoids the wound being pressured and painful.

[0013] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0014] To solve the problem of how to effectively position and adjust the technology, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, the following preferred technical solutions are provided: A thoracic surgery nursing aid includes a fixed base 1 and an automatic adjustment component 2. The automatic adjustment component 2 is fixedly connected to the top of the fixed base 1. When the device is used by the operator, the servo motor 204 is activated, and the transmission rod 205 drives the rotating plate 206 to rotate around the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 202, which is precisely adjusted to the position required by the patient. If it is necessary to adapt to the width of the patient's chest, the control disk 209 is manually rotated, and the high-strength threaded rod 207 rotates smoothly under the support of the bearing 208, which drives the sliding block 210 to move horizontally along the threaded rod, thereby adjusting the position of the protective fixed component 3. No multiple people are required to assist, and the adjustment process avoids pulling on the wound. The automatic adjustment component 2 includes a connecting seat 201 fixedly connected to the top of the fixed base 1. A U-shaped frame 202 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting base 201, a motor box 203 is fixedly connected to one side of the U-shaped frame 202, a servo motor 204 is fixedly connected inside the motor box 203, a transmission rod 205 is fixedly connected to the output end of the servo motor 204, and a rotating plate 206 is fixedly connected to the surface of the transmission rod 205.

[0015] Specifically, when operating the device, the operator first determines the patient's post-operative recovery needs based on the patient's position: the fixed seat 1 is moved to the patient's bedside, ensuring that the automatic adjustment component 2 is facing the patient's back area. Then, the servo motor 204 inside the motor housing 203 is activated. The servo motor 204 drives the transmission rod 205 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating plate 206 to rotate around the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 202 until the rotating plate 206 is adjusted to the target angle. The servo motor 204 is then turned off to lock the angle. Finally, the operator manually rotates the control unit according to the patient's chest width. The disc 209 drives the high-strength threaded rod 207 to rotate under the support of the bearing 208, causing the sliding block 210 to move horizontally along the threaded rod, thereby adjusting the position of the protective fixing component 3 to ensure that the protective cotton board 302 fits against the patient's back. Finally, the patient is assisted to lean against the protective cotton board 302, and the protective strap 305 is pulled to wrap around the chest. The buckle 306 is fastened into the seat 304 to achieve fixation. The protective airbag 307 is inflated through the airbag 309 and the transmission tube 308 until the patient reports no pressure and no pulling pain in the wound, thus completing the preparation for use of the device. Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the following preferred technical solutions are provided: One side of the rotating plate 206 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 202. The interior of the rotating plate 206 is rotatably connected to a high-strength threaded rod 207. The purpose of this design is that when the rotating plate 206 rotates around the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 202, it can cooperate with the transmission rod 205 to achieve angle adjustment within the range of 30 degrees and 90 degrees, accurately adapting to the different postoperative position requirements of patients. The high-strength threaded rod 207 provides a stable threaded transmission track for the sliding block 210. By rotating the threaded rod, the sliding block 210 is moved, thereby adjusting the lateral position of the protective fixing component 3 to adapt to the chest width of patients of different body types and improve the versatility of the device. Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the following preferred technical solutions are provided: A bearing 208 is fixedly connected to one side of the high-strength threaded rod 207, and one end of the bearing 208 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rotating plate 206. A control panel 209 is fixedly connected to the other side of the high-strength threaded rod 207. A sliding block 210 is threadedly connected to the surface of the high-strength threaded rod 207. The purpose of this design is that the bearing 208 can significantly reduce the frictional resistance when the high-strength threaded rod 207 rotates, avoid the threaded rod from jamming and causing uneven movement of the sliding block 210, and ensure smooth position adjustment; the control panel 209 increases the contact area with the hand, making it convenient for medical staff or family members to manually rotate the threaded rod and accurately control the movement distance of the sliding block 210 without the need for additional tools; the sliding block 210 serves as the mounting carrier for the protective fixing component 3 and can move horizontally with the rotation of the threaded rod, providing a basis for position adjustment of the protective fixing component 3 and ensuring a fit with the patient's body.

[0016] Furthermore, such as Figure 4As shown, the following preferred technical solutions are provided: A protective fixing component 3 is fixedly connected to the surface of the automatic adjustment component 2. The protective fixing component 3 includes a sliding plate 301 fixedly connected to the surface of the automatic adjustment component 2. The sliding plate 301 is fixedly connected to the surface of the sliding block 210. A protective cotton plate 302 is fixedly connected to the middle of the top of the sliding plate 301. The purpose of this design is that the sliding plate 301 moves synchronously with the sliding block 210, driving the protective fixing component 3 to adjust its lateral position as a whole, ensuring that the protective cotton plate 302 is always aligned with the patient's back. The protective cotton plate 302 is made of thick medical memory foam, which has good softness and support, can conform to the curve of the patient's back, avoids the discomfort caused by direct contact of hard structures with the skin, and at the same time reduces pressure on the skin around the wound, reducing the risk of pressure sores.

[0017] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the following preferred technical solutions are provided: A fixing block 303 is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the sliding plate 301, and a card holder 304 is fixedly connected to the other side of the top of the sliding plate 301. The purpose of this design is that the fixing block 303 provides a stable fixing end point for the protective belt 305, ensuring that one end of the protective belt 305 does not shift and guaranteeing the fixing effect; the card holder 304 and the buckle 306 on the surface of the protective belt 305 form a quick-locking structure, which allows medical staff or patients to easily lock and unlock, making it convenient for patients to adjust or change their position independently and improving the ease of use. Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the following preferred technical solutions are provided: The top of the fixing block 303 is fixedly connected to a protective strap 305, and the surface of the protective strap 305 is fixedly connected to a buckle 306. The purpose of this design is that the protective strap 305 is made of elastic medical fabric, which can wrap around the patient's chest and be fixed to the seat 304 through the buckle 306, so as to avoid the patient's unconscious movement pulling on the wound and reduce the risk of wound dehiscence; the elastic fabric can adapt to different chest circumferences, avoid poor blood circulation caused by rigid restraint, and improve the patient's wearing comfort. Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the following preferred technical solutions are provided: A protective airbag 307 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the protective band 305. A transmission tube 308 is connected through the middle of the top of the protective band 305. An airbag 309 for inflating the protective airbag 307 is connected through the top of the transmission tube 308. The purpose of this design is that after the protective airbag 307 is inflated, it can fit against the area around the patient's chest wound to form a flexible buffer layer, avoiding the protective band 305 from directly compressing the wound and causing pain. The transmission tube 308 is a gas transmission channel. Medical staff can precisely control the inflation volume of the airbag by squeezing the airbag 309 to achieve personalized wound protection. After deflation, the protective band 305 can be easily removed without affecting the patient's daily care.

[0018] Working principle: Before use, move the fixed base 1 to the patient's bedside, start the servo motor 204, and the transmission rod 205 drives the rotating plate 206 to rotate around the inner wall of the U-shaped frame 202. After adjusting to the required body position angle for the patient, turn off the motor. Manually rotate the control panel 209, and the high-strength threaded rod 207 rotates under the support of the bearing 208, driving the sliding block 210 and the sliding plate 301 to move, so that the protective cotton board 302 is aligned with the patient's back. Assist the patient to lean against the protective cotton board 302 and pull the protective belt 305. The buckle 306 is fastened into the seat 304 around the chest. The protective airbag 307 is inflated through the airbag 309 and the transmission tube 308 until the patient reports comfort and the wound is no longer under pressure. When the patient needs to adjust the position, the servo motor 204 is repeatedly started to adjust the angle of the rotating plate 206. When disassembly is required, the buckle 306 is released and the protective airbag 307 is deflated. The whole process achieves precise adjustment of position, personalized fixation and flexible wound protection, reduces the intensity of manual operation and reduces postoperative discomfort and wound risk for the patient.
