Smart buckle device

The invention discloses a buckle device, in particular to a smart buckle device which can be used by a user to monitor the time and tension of the spinal correction protection device.

In recent years, the problem of scoliosis has become a major problem for Chinese people. In particular, since the initial development of the scoliosis is slow and it is not easy to cause discomfort, it is quite easy to be ignored, and it is often found that it is only 10 to 15 years old, and the growth of the period is the fastest. Moreover, most people have long relied on computer work because of changes in their living habits. They have to bend to their desks for a long time, and gradually move toward an aging society. As a result, the current cases of spinal diseases are endless, and the age group is expanding. Therefore, the related issues of spinal care have gradually received attention.

However, in view of the current spine correction tools on the market, there is rarely a time to monitor and record the wear time of the spinal correction protector and the tension applied by the strap to provide the user with the recommended protective gear, especially for children. Because doctors and parents can't grasp the situation of patients using spinal correction tools for a long time, if the wear time is insufficient, the correction effect will be inconsistent, which will lead to the deterioration of the spine and affect the quality of life. In addition, if the child adjusts the harness of the protective gear independently, it will not be able to control the correct and appropriate pulling force, and there is no certain standard of judgment.

Therefore, in view of the above-mentioned prior art, the inventor of the present invention has invented a smart buckle device to immediately make a suggestion or warning to the user, so that the user and his or her guardian can immediately understand the wear condition and adjust the spine. Corrective protective gear.

An object of the present invention is to provide a smart buckle device for a user (especially a child) to instantly monitor the tension of wearing the spinal correction protection device. If the tension is insufficient, the parent or the doctor can immediately assist the child to adjust the tension, and then Achieve the effect of correction.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a smart buckle device for a user (especially a child) to instantly record the time when the spinal correction aid is worn and to provide statistical data. If the wear time is found to be insufficient, the parent or The doctor immediately urged the child to wear it, and then achieved the effect of correction.

In order to achieve the above and other objects, the present invention provides a smart buckle device which can be combined with a spinal correction protector for the user to monitor the time and tension of the spinal correction protector in real time, including: The buckle is a hollow component having a curved portion and a linear plate portion, and is engageable with a fixing member at one end of the spinal correction protection device; a connecting member is provided for the spinal correction The other end of the strap is passed through and fixed; and a sensing module has one end fixedly pivoted to the end of the linear plate portion of the R-shaped buckle, and the other end is fixedly pivotally connected to the connecting member. At least a power supply unit, an inductive component, a memory unit, a processor, and a wireless transmission unit, the power supply unit and the sensing component, the memory unit, the processor, and the wireless transmission unit are electrically Connecting and supplying the required power, the sensing element is coupled to the R-shaped buckle to sense information such as the tension and duration of the strap, and store the information in the Recalling the unit, and then transmitting it to the processor for processing and generating a signal to the wireless transmission unit, the wireless transmission unit then transmits the signal to one of the external signal receiving devices via wireless transmission, and immediately gives a suggestion or warning to the unit. The user and his guardian can immediately adjust the wearing condition of the spinal correction protector. The power supply unit may be one of a primary battery or a secondary battery or a combination thereof; wherein the sensing element may be a Load Cell Sensor, One or a combination of a strain gauge or a Force Sensor; wherein the memory unit can be one of or a combination of an SD card, a Mini SD card, and a Micro SD card; The wireless transmission unit may be one of a Bluetooth wireless transmission unit, a Wi-Fi unit, an RFID unit, an infrared unit, or a Zigbee unit, or a combination thereof; wherein the signal receiving device may be a personal computer host, One or a combination of a tablet, laptop, smart phone, or cloud host.

Compared with the prior art, the smart buckle device of the present invention has the following advantages and characteristics: 1. It can be applied to a conventional spinal correction device, and only the sensing element is required to sense the tension change of the band, that is, It is quite convenient for the user to immediately determine whether the spinal orthopedic guard is worn correctly, and can be adjusted immediately for the pulling force. 2. The invention senses the wearing time of the user through the sensing element, that is, The user immediately monitors whether the time for wearing the spinal correction protector is sufficient or not. This concept has not been seen in the market products and literature.

In order to fully understand the objects, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be described in detail by the following specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings. As shown in the first figure and the second figure, it is an exploded schematic view of a smart buckle device of the present invention, and a schematic diagram of an embodiment of a smart buckle device of the present invention. In general, primary scoliosis accounts for 80% to 85% of the total scoliosis. However, it usually occurs between children aged 10 to 15 years old, and the initial scoliosis develops slowly, and there is no discomfort, so it is quite easy to be ignored. Failure to treat immediately will result in low back pain, respiratory illness, deterioration of posture and vertebral complications. Therefore, traditional treatment methods allow children to wear spinal correction aids to correct the problem of scoliosis. However, traditional spinal correction tools do not allow parents or doctors to accurately grasp the time when children wear the spinal correction aids, and they cannot standardize the tension of the spinal correction aids, so the correction effect is often inconsistent. The present invention discloses a smart buckle device 1 which can be combined with a conventional spinal correction device 2 for the user (especially referring to a child) to immediately monitor the time and tension of the spinal correction protection device 2, The invention includes an R-type buckle 10, a connecting member 12 and a sensing module 14.
