Abstract

The spine stretching cushion, for a temporary mounting in or at a chair backrest, is formed by two flexible films bonded together at their edges to be expanded by a pressure fluid to a maximum expansion of 400\*400 mm with a curvature matching the structure of the human spine. The cushion is attached to the chair backrest by adhesive contact strips, or it is integrated into the backrest. The cushion is inflated and deflated by an automatic intermittent operation.

Description

Die Erfindung betriff ein Wirbeldehnpolster, nach Patentanmeldung DE PS 100 23 671.5.The invention relates to a vertebral expansion pad, according to patent application DE PS 100 23 671.5.

Es wird vorgeschlagen, das beschriebene Wirbeldehnpolster als lösbaren oder fest fixierten Bestandteil einer Sitzmöbellehne einschließlich der eines Autositzes auszu­ bilden.It is proposed that the described vertebral expansion pad be removable or fixed fixed part of a seat back including that of a car seat form.

Die Aufgabe besteht darin, das Wirbeldehnpolster so zu gestalten, dass es auf einfache Weise an der Rückenlehne eines handelsüblichen Sitzmöbels so ange­ bracht werden kann, dass es in vorbestimmbarer Weise die Wirbelsäule eines gegen die Rückenlehne sich stützenden Benutzers überstreckt.The task is to design the spine expansion pad so that it is open simple way on the backrest of a commercially available piece of seating can be brought that it in a predeterminable manner against the spine the backrest is supported by the user.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die im Kennzeichen des Hauptanspruchs dazu angege­ benen Merkmale gelöst.This task is indicated in the characterizing part of the main claim characteristics resolved.

Das Wirbeldehnpolster kann fest oder lösbar an/in der Rückenlehne eines handels­ üblichen Sitzmöbels angebracht sein. Die hierzu erforderlichen Befestigungsmittel können also Schrauben, Schweißnähte, Abnäher u. dgl. sein, wenn das Wirbeldehn­ polster fest in die Rückenlehne eingebaut ist. Die Behandlungsseite mit den sich unter Druckbeaufschlagung ausdehnenden Kammern wird dabei so angeordnet, dass beim dagegen gelehnt sitzenden Menschen der jeweils gewünschte Wirbel­ abschnitt gedehnt/lordosiert wird.The spinal cushion can be fixed or detachable on / in the backrest of a trade usual seating furniture. The fasteners required for this So can screws, welds, darts and. Like. When the spine stretching upholstery is firmly installed in the backrest. The treatment side with the yourself chambers under pressure are arranged so that that when people are leaning against it the desired vertebra section is stretched / lordosed.

Sind die Befestigungsmittel dagegen Haftklettenverschlüsse, Riemen, Knopfver­ bindungen o. ä., kann das Wirbeldehnpolster nachträglich an der Rückenlehne befestigt und auch wieder abgenommen werden. Hierbei können mehrere horizontal abgestufte Befestigungsstellen vorgesehen sein, so dass die Behandlungshöhe der Körpergröße und dem jeweiligen Therapiezweck angepasst werden kann. Dieses Ziel lässt sich bei der fest integrierten Lösung auch dadurch erreichen, dass die Rückenlehne selbst gegenüber der Sitzfläche des Sitzmöbels höhenverstellbar ist, wie man dies von Bürodrehstühlen kennt. Denkbar ist auch die Anbringung mehrerer Wirbeldehnpolster in sinnvoller Positionierung an der Rückenlehne, z. B. für die Lenden- und die Halslordose, oder aber auf der Sitzfläche.Are the fasteners, however, Velcro fasteners, straps, button ver bindings or similar, the spine expansion pad can be retrofitted to the backrest attached and removed again. Here, several can be horizontal graded attachment points can be provided so that the treatment height of the Height and the respective therapy purpose can be adjusted. This The goal of the firmly integrated solution can also be achieved by the fact that The backrest itself can be adjusted in height in relation to the seat of the seating, as you know from office swivel chairs. It is also conceivable to attach several Swivel expansion pads in a sensible positioning on the backrest, e.g. B. for the Lumbar and neck lordosis, or on the seat.

Da bei einem nicht nach vorne per Gürtel schließbaren Wirbeldehnpolster die Bedienelemente nicht mehr so einfach in Reichweite des Benutzers angeordnet werden können, sollte das erfindungsgemäße Wirbeldehnpolster eine automatische Steuerung, z. B. per Mikroprozessor, erhalten, die das Aufblasen und Entleeren des Polsters bewirkt.Because with a spine expansion pad that cannot be closed with a belt, the Controls are no longer so easily arranged within the user's reach can be, the vertebral expansion pad according to the invention an automatic Control, e.g. B. received by microprocessor, the inflation and deflation of Upholstery.

Die Erfindung hat den Vorteil, dass der Benutzer das Wirbeldehnpolster nicht an seinem Körper fixieren muss, sondern sich lediglich gegen die entsprechend ausge­ stattete Rückenlehne eines Sitzmöbels stützen muss. Im günstigsten Fall kann er das Wirbeldehnpolster an einem beliebigen Sitzmöbel anbringen, so dass dieses nicht neu angeschafft werden muss.The invention has the advantage that the user does not attach the spinal cushion must fix his body, but only against himself accordingly equipped backrest of a piece of furniture must support. In the best case, he can attach the swivel cushion to any piece of seating furniture, so that this does not have to be purchased again.
