-1 / 5MECHANICAL MECHANICAL GYMNASTIC STABILIZER (KINETOSIS) FOR USE ON BOARD VESSELS, AUTOMOBILES, BUSES AND AIRCRAFT.

[001] This report refers to an invention patent consisting of a mechanical gyroscopic stabilizing anti-motion device for use on board vessels, automobiles, buses and airplanes consisting of a device with fully mechanical operation and whose primary objective is to avoid the effects motion sickness (common type of nausea) or boarded seaweed, a common problem that afflicts some people (more frequent in women), for such a stabilizing device based on the principle of gyroscopic movement, it consists of a platform mounted on a rim in a longitudinal plane that by its instead it is affixed to another ring in a transverse plane and can rotate around an axis in this direction, at the same time springs are arranged in the four quadrants of the base that supports the platform in order to yield or extend according to the weight of the user and the movements of the boat and thus stabilizing the horizontal plane in which the user is and, therefore, its application extends from seats, floors and beds.

[002] Travel or motion sickness occurs when there is a disparity between the perception of vision on the position of the body and the perception of the inner ear (which controls balance). It is more common in children, improving with age, but some adults can also suffer from this condition, particularly in certain circumstances such as on a busy boat trip or driving on long, winding roads. The pathophysiology of motion sickness is not yet fully understood. One hypothesis states that it stems from the brain's inability to integrate conflicting information from the inner ear, eyes and other sensors regarding the position spread throughout the body (proprioperception). The inconsistency between information from the body's various sensory organs, such as visual stimulation, head and eye movements, and the vestibular system being stimulated is triggered by both linear and angular acceleration. This can occur, sailing, riding a car, plane or even in amusement park toys or leisure activities.

- 2 / 5A study of the theme, comparing various types of vessels, revealed that the occurrence of motion sickness is related to the magnitude of the vertical acceleration observed in relation to the previous linear movement. The most common symptoms are: dizziness, nausea, sweating, stomach cramps and vomiting. Theoretically, anyone can develop this condition, but some have greater sensitivity to movement due to physiology, health problems or due to the consumption of prescription drugs.

[003] The state of the art with regard to the use of means to soften and / or eliminate the effects of motion sickness (motion sickness) are based on bracelets that emit electrical impulses, medicines, medicinal herbs, recommended practices, among others. Many of these measures are, however, questionable regarding scientific support, side effects, added to the intolerance to the drugs proposed for the treatment of this eventual problem (nausea) or due to other diseases that restrict the administration of certain drugs that may impact the treatment specifically. .

Therefore, the means currently offered to minimize the effects of motion sickness are based on inefficient solutions, not recommended for all people, and which are not always practical and safe, making it unfeasible and restricting use.

[004] To resolve such situations, the present invention patent is proposed by means of a fully mechanical stabilizing device, dispensing with any source of energy for its operation and applicable to all types of vessels, automobiles, buses and planes, thus preventing effective the appearance of symptoms resulting from motion sickness.

[005] What defines the sophistication of the present patent application lies in the volume of the device, which consists of a platform mounted on a frame in a longitudinal plane which in turn is attached to another frame in a transverse plane and can rotate around a axis in this direction, at the same time springs are arranged in the four quadrants of the base that supports the platform. The platform and base will be made of plastic

-3 / 5termorigid or similar in order to reduce the weight of the device and better adapt to the harmful effects of salt air, the supports or metal rims made of stainless steel, on the platform a layer of non-slip material will be applied.

[006] As for use, when said stabilizing equipment is used in seats, therefore the user is sitting in the armchair, car seat or on the vessel's fishing chair, for example, its configuration will have a circular shape in order to be better adapt ergonomically and will have the appropriate dimensions to the dimensions of the seat to which it is adjusted.

[007] When the use is directed to the application in the floor format, its shape will be square and in this case the user will be standing on the device, the dimensions in this case may vary according to the space to which the stabilizing device will be adjusted, a constant in this case will be its predominantly and mandatorily square shape in order to be able to apply the physical / functional principle that governs the perfect functioning of the said device.

[008] The third application of the stabilizing device concerns the use of the bed, that is, when the user is lying down, in the case of marine vessels, here the shape of the device is also preferably square and used in varying amounts and proportional to the size of the bed , the device is placed below the mattress in order to stabilize the position of the lying user who will remain in the same horizontal position regardless of the angulations suffered by the vessel.

[009] The differential of the said stabilizing device is defined by its constructive simplicity combined with its proven efficiency, since its inventive principle is based on an elementary principle of physics, which defines the applicability of the device for people of all ages without any restriction. , when the person is seated, standing or lying on the device, it tends to tilt longitudinally or transversely, keeping the person's balance axis always in the same position, whether vertical (seated or standing) or horizontal (lying-bed). This way you avoid

- 4 / 5disparity between the perception of vision on the position of the body and the perception of the inner ear (which controls balance), and thus the symptoms of nausea will not appear.

[010] The gyroscopic mechanical anti-seasickness device for use on board vessels, automobiles, buses and planes establishes a new state of the art in relation to the current forms and models now known, resulting in a light, transportable device, available at the time of its safe and effective use, thus being the object of the present invention patent, will be better described based on the schematic drawings listed below:
