- Unique Properties
- Breakthrough inbuilt air-inflation,press the gasbag in the center to inflate, and press the exhaust button on the left of the product to exhaust air.
To get the best fixing and supporting effect, there are six gears for adjusting the product height and there will be a sound reminder when raising/lowering down each gear of heigh, the supporting plate behind the neck is designed to support the up-and-down adjustment. - Dimensions & Packaging
- 260mm x 220mm x1 80mm, with ergonomic tridynamic traction to restore healthy cervical curvature. Fix the cervical spine to allow adequate rest of the damaged cervical spine. Reverse C thrust evenly pushes away to repair cervical atrophy area. Upward support and downward lifting, while inflating, all balloons simultaneously apply force to distract the cervical spine space.

- Production Technology
- Fix the cervical spine in place and change the bad position to maintain normal posture. Support the neck muscles to rest, relieve muscle spasms, and relieve local pain. Restrict the excessive movement of the neck to maintain local stability, relieve and improve the pressure state of the cone space, correct the internal and external balance of the cervical spine, which is helpful to recover as soon as possible.
- Design Challenge
- In order to create a brand-new wear experience, the whole machine fabric removable washable design is adopted. Through numerous ergonomic wear tests, proofing tests and modifications, the first embedded tracheal neck fixator has been developed, and the innovative experience of all-in-one inflation and deflation has been created. The therapeutic product can be adjusted step by step. The product has the voice feedback of gear adjustment. A more therapeutic neck fixator makes the patient feel lighter and more comfortable to use.
- Research
- In the treatment of patients with cervical spondylosis, plaster, stent, neck bracket and so on are often used to make the cervical spine get a stable state and achieve the purpose of treatment. This is neck fixation and braking, and cervical vertebra fixator is commonly used.
The cervical spine fixator on the market has long inflation lines that affects patient use, while this design is a highly discernible structural functional form and differentiated product, with internal wiring, integration, centralized functional area, and upgrades operation experience. - Inspiration
- The existing neck fixing products have a set of long inflation tube components which seriously affect the use comfortability of the product.
We hope that the patient can remember his suitable raising height when using the product to get a better healing outcome. - Project Duration
- The project lasted for 1 year and was completed in Guangzhou.
- Operation Flow
- Adapts an in-built gasbag and an interior line-hidden structure. Press the gasbag in the center to inflate, and press the exhaust button on the left of the product to exhaust air, hence realizing a convenient wireless portable product experience.
There are six gears for adjusting the product height and there will be a sound reminder when raising/lowering down each gear of height. To get the best fixing and supporting effect, the supporting plate behind the neck is designed to support the up-and-down adjustment, so users can select a suitable height to wear. - Team Members
