Intelligent constant-temperature prosthetic socket and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses an intelligent constant-temperature prosthetic socket. The intelligent constant-temperature prosthetic socket is characterized in that a heat conducting plate is arranged in the prosthetic socket, heat conducting strips or heat conducting nets scattered in the prosthetic socket are connected to the heat conducting plate, a semiconductor chilling plate is connected to the heat conducting plate, a cooling fin is fixedly connected to the semiconductor chilling plate, a cooling fan is fixedly connected to the cooling fin, a PCB controller and a thermocouple are further arranged in the prosthetic socket, a battery is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the prosthetic socket, and the battery supplies power to the PCB controller, the semiconductor chilling plate, the thermocouple and the cooling fan. A manufacturing method of the intelligent constant-temperature prosthetic socket comprises the following steps of 1, taking a model; 2, conducting vacuum forming on theresin prosthetic socket; 3, conducting cutting and polishing; and 4, installing a refrigerating and heating device. By means of the intelligent constant-temperature prosthetic socket and the manufacturing method thereof, complications of the residual limb are reduced when a patient wears the prosthetic socket in cold weather.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a prosthetic (prosthetic) socket, in particular to a prosthetic (prosthetic) intelligent heating and cooling socket and a manufacturing method thereof, belonging to the technical field of rehabilitation medical rehabilitation engineering intelligence. Background technique [0002] In recent years, due to various diseases, cancers, vascular diseases, trauma, traffic accidents and other reasons, there have been many amputee patients. With the development of modern medical rehabilitation engineering science and technology, a higher requirements. As an artificial limb used by amputees or incompletely disabled persons to replace part of the functions of the lost limbs, prosthetic limbs are very important auxiliary tools for patients to restore certain self-care and working abilities. As the most important part of the prosthesis, the socket directly contacts with the residual limb to accommodate the residual limb, and plays the role...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

When the residual limb of the closed socket is stimulated by low temperature and humidity, the blood vessels on the body surface will spasm, and the blood flow will be reduced, resulting in tissue ischemia and hypoxia, and cell damage, especially in the poorer blood circulation at the distal end of the residual limb. In turn, it will affect the comfort of the socket and the function of the prosthesis

[0005] 2. When the weather is hot, when the patient wears the socket, the pores are enlarged, and it is easy to secrete substances and lose water.

Muscle atrophy after perspiration from the soft tissue will also cause the residual limb to slide and cause friction between the residual limb and the piston movement of the socket, resulting in skin damage. Using the socket when the wound does not heal will aggravate the damage, and the situation will be very serious after infection
