Orthotic device for valgus deformity

Abstract

An orthotic device for valgus deformity comprises a fixator, a first telescopic rod, a second telescopic rod and a bottom rod. The orthotic device is characterized in that the fixator is connected with one end of the first telescopic rod, and the other end of the first telescopic rod is hinged to the bottom rod. The bottom rod is connected with one end of the second telescopic rod. The other end of the second telescopic rod is mounted on the first telescopic rod. A fulcrum frame is arranged on the lower side of the bottom rod. The orthotic device has the advantages that the telescopic rods andpedals moving along the axial direction are mounted, and accordingly, the height is adjusted to meet requirements of patients with different heights; the fulcrum frame moving along the axial direction is arranged to increase or decrease the resultant force on the fixator, and accordingly, the patients with different valgus deformity degrees can be treated; the fixator is mounted to fasten knees,so that skin injuries of the patients suffering from the valgus deformity are avoided during use, and outside ligaments can be shortened to achieve the treatment effect when being pulled by inside ligaments of the knee joints; the orthotic device is novel and has high practicability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of medical equipment, in particular to an O-shaped leg corrector. Background technique [0002] "O" shaped legs means that the ankles are close together, and the knees cannot be close together, forming an "O" shape. Most of them are caused by standing too early, walking for too long, lack of nutrition and exercise, pathology and other reasons, resulting in an imbalance between the contraction force and stretching force of the muscle groups and ligaments on the inner and outer sides of the thigh and calf, and pathological causes. Joint deformation, the medial knee joint space becomes smaller or even worn out and the medial ligament of the knee joint shrinks, while the lateral knee joint space widens and the lateral ligament of the knee joint elongates. In the long run, the condition will accelerate deterioration when bearing its own weight and other weights, and surgery There are restrictions such as age and personal ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] In order to solve the problems of poor correction effect and troublesome operation of the current O-shaped leg orthotics, the present invention needs to provide an O-shaped orthotic with simple structure, convenient use, auxiliary treatment and correction of O-shaped legs, and can effectively shorten the correction period of O-shaped legs. leg corrector
