Problems solved by technology

However, at present, there are very few such devices on the market, and there are disadvantages such as inconvenient or bulky operation, inability to fold, large footprint, and inconvenient portability. Moreover, the existing knee joint function recovery devices are rigid devices, and the treatment experience is poor.

Embodiment approach

[0051] The manipulator 16 is fixed on the guide frame, the thigh protector is placed on the appropriate position of the patient's thigh, the extension frame is pulled out from the thigh protector, and the position and position of the fixing nut 23 on the guide frame are adjusted according to the activity of the knee joint. The pull-out length of the extension frame is to ensure that the force exerted by the manipulator 16 on the ankle joint is perpendicular to the calf, and the extension frame is fixed on the connecting rod of the thigh protector by using the fixing buckle 9. By inflating the manipulator, the manipulator prolongs the force applied to the ankle joint. A downward force makes the knee joint bend. This force can be adjusted by changing the amount of inflation. When there is a slight discomfort in the knee joint, the inflation is stopped and maintained for a certain period of time, which forces the stiffened tendon and other tissues to lengthen. But when the sense o...

Abstract

The invention discloses a folding flexible knee joint functional recovery device. The folding flexible knee joint functional recovery device comprises a thigh protective tool, an extending frame, a guide frame, a flexible mechanical arm and an air inflation device. The thigh protective tool is fixed to a thigh, and the extending frame extends out of the thigh protective tool; when the folding flexible knee joint functional recovery device works, two guide rods of the guide frame are arranged on the two sides of an ankle joint; the flexible mechanical arm is of a detachable structure, the upper end of the arm is fixed to the top end of the guide frame, a base is fixed to the tail end of the extending frame, the mechanical arm holds the ankle joint, and the flexible mechanical arm is inflated through the air inflation device, and extends to apply downward thrust to the ankle joint under the guidance of the guide frame, so that the knee joint is forced to bend downwards. The length of the mechanical arm is changed through adjustment of the amount of air inflating the flexible mechanical arm so as to achieve the change of the applied force, and the time of the applied force action can be kept when air inflation stops. Compared with the prior art, the folding flexible knee joint functional recovery device is simple in structure and low in cost, can be folded, and is widely suitable for the crowd, free of trauma, convenient to adjust and use, firm and reliable, and humanized in design.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical devices, and in particular relates to a foldable and flexible knee joint function recovery device. Background technique [0002] When people play sports or have accidents, fractures around the knee joint are the most frequent fractures. However, in the traditional treatment and operation of the knee joint and its surrounding areas, the joints are usually fixed in one position due to the long-term inactivity of the patient. These may cause internal and external adhesion, stiffness or contracture of joints or tissues, leading to joint stiffness or deformity, etc., affecting the normal function of the joints, leaving sequelae, and bringing inconvenience to the work and life of the patient in the future. [0003] With the innovation and progress of medical technology, postoperative rehabilitation has been paid more and more attention. Usually, two methods are used for the recovery of knee joint functi...
