Abstract

The device has a sealing (5) provided between a body and a vacuum chamber (1), where a passive movement of a patient (2) at a leg area is produced through mechanically, pneumatically or hydraulically moved contact surfaces of a sole of a foot of the patient. The patient stands with legs (3) on a movable part (4), where the vacuum is produced using a pump through an opening (6). A leg moving device is integrated in the chamber for moving the leg.

Description

Gerät zur Erzeugung von Unterdruck im unteren Körperbereich eines Menschen. Bekannt sind solche Geräte in der Medizin und in Fitneszentren. (Vacumed-Gerät der Fa. Weyergans High Care, Düren; Hypoxi Trainer)Device for generating of negative pressure in the lower body area of a human. Such devices are known in medicine and in fitness centers. (Vacumed device of Fa. Weyergans High Care, Düren; Hypoxi Trainer)

In der Medizin wird der Patient liegend in eine den Unterkörper umfassende Röhre eingebracht, in der der Unterdruck erzeugt wird. Während der Behandlung ruht der Patient, da ihm die zu behandelnde Krankheit – Schaufensterkrankheit – eine länger anhaltende Bewegung der Beine nicht erlaubt.In In medicine, the patient is lying down in a lower body Tube inserted, in which the negative pressure is generated. During the treatment rests the Patient, because the disease to be treated - intermittent claudication - a longer lasting Leg movement not allowed.

Im Fitnesbereich ist ein Fahradergometer in den Bereich des Unterdrucks integriert.in the Fitness area is a bicycle ergometer in the range of negative pressure integrated.

Der im Patentanspruch 1 angegebenen Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde, einem an der Schaufensterkrankheit leidenden Patienten die Unterdruckbehandlung über einen längeren Zeitraum – etwa eine halbe Stunde – mit Bewegung, wenn auch einer passiven, zugute kommen zu lassen, da sie wirksamer ist als die in Ruhe.Of the The invention defined in claim 1 is based on the problem a patient suffering from intermittent claudication, the negative pressure treatment over a longer Period - about half an hour - with Movement, albeit a passive, to benefit, since she is more effective than the one at rest.

Dieses Problem wird dadurch gelöst, daß statt einer aktiven eine passive Bewegung des Patienten im Beinbereich durch mechanisch, pneumatisch oder hydraulisch bewegte Berührungsflächen der Fußsohlen des Patienten erzeugt wird.This Problem is solved by that instead an active passive movement of the patient in the leg area by mechanically, pneumatically or hydraulically moving contact surfaces of soles of the patient is generated.

Vorzugsweise steht der Patient dazu mit jedem Fuß auf einer Fläche, die mit üblichen Mitteln automatisch auf- und abbewegt werden kann.Preferably The patient stands with each foot on a surface that with usual Means can be moved up and down automatically.

Abwechselnd werden dadurch die Beine auf- und abbewegt.Alternately this moves the legs up and down.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird im Folgenden näher beschrieben.One embodiment is shown in the drawing and will be described in more detail below.

1 zeigt eine Ausführungsform einer Unterdruckkammer 1 in der ein Patient 2 stehend behandelt wird. Eine die Kammer abschließende Türe ist nicht dargestellt. Der Patient 2 steht mit je einem Bein 3 auf einem in der Höhe beweglichen Teil 4. Eine im Schnitt dargestellte aufblasbare Dichtung 5 überbrückt unterschiedliche Umfänge und Grössen der Patienten und dichtet zwischen dem Patienten 2, der Unterdruckkammer 1 und der nicht dargestellten Türe. Durch eine Öffnung 6 wird mit üblichen Mitteln (Pumpe, Gebläse) der Unterdruck erzeugt. 1 shows an embodiment of a vacuum chamber 1 in the one patient 2 is treated standing. A chamber closing door is not shown. The patient 2 stands with one leg each 3 on a vertically moving part 4 , A sectioned inflatable seal 5 bridges different scopes and sizes of patients and seals between patients 2 , the vacuum chamber 1 and the door, not shown. Through an opening 6 is generated by conventional means (pump, blower), the negative pressure.
