DE102006012163A1 - Glove, for therapeutic applications, has chambers on both sides filled with spelt grains for heating or cooling as required - Google Patents

Abstract

The glove, for therapeutic applications, has a number of separate chambers filled with spelt grains on both sides of the glove. The glove is of pure cotton with eight cotton layers as a large mitten.

Description

State of the art

Known are spelled grain pillows or spelled grain scarves. These support therapeutic Healing methods in which the grain filling is heated or chilled on bodies of the body is placed.

Problem Description

The usual Therapeutic aids, as above, have so far decisive impairment in the application. They are one-sided and not comprehensive and so on it was meaningful, a possibility to develop that the whole to be cured (or to be treated) Body area in the therapeutic implementation can be included.

at Rheumatism patients, the disease does not only affect one-sided but surfaces related to all pages. So a way had to be found that an alleviation or healing process can be initiated over the entire area.

Of the Ergotherapy glove wraps Accordingly, the entire palm and acts through it the organic spelled grain filling (exceptionally useful for Allergic) with appropriate application (cooling or warming) the total covering surface one.

At the Spreading the ergotherapy gloves will over other regions of the body a noticeable Pressure triggered and irritates other affected areas effectively and sensitizes them Skin top web. A massage-like feeling spreads pleasantly on the thus stimulated body regions out.

embodiments in therapeutic areas:

The possible applications of ergotherapy gloves from a therapeutic point of view are as follows:
Various applications; Cold-heat treatment or surface pressure massage help to achieve different success in therapy applications or individual healing-related uses.

It is known for heat application:

improvement the circulation of arthritis restricted / diseased hands or Improving the mobility of joints.

application before therapy or craft activities - during therapeutic measures. favoring and promotion Relaxation-therapeutic content - after therapy or too Home after the general housework.

Is known in cold application:

relief Swelling of the small joints in bruises, acute joint inflammation or Bruising.

When positive side effect prevents the used cotton fabric in the Contrast of cold packs one damage of the skin.

Further positive effect is a uniform temperature distribution over the Spelled grains.

Known is pressure sensation of the inside lying grains:

at therapeutic application Within occupational therapy promotion the tactile perception.

At the Sensing three-dimensional objects, excluding visual Control while wearing the ergotherapy gloves is by the inside grains generally the sensibility the hands, Feel and buttons improved.

As well sufferers with tactile cognitive disorders by wearing the Occupational therapy gloves a general improvement of "hand-hand coordination".

embodiments in cosmetic areas:

Of the Use and application of occupational therapy gloves by probants with atopic dermatitis achieved relief of itching and decrease in the redness the affected skin areas.

General areas of application:

In occupational therapy practices

The Ergotherapy gloves are specifically used in therapy units. In patients with impaired tactile perception, the circulation of the skin is stimulated and by the weight of the filling The ergotherapy gloves he starts to feel the grains on his skin.

Also stimulating is the different cold or heat application option for circulatory disorders of the areas of the hands. The self weight of ergotherapy gloves delivers effective sensations through stroke, sensation (grain filling) and severity also in the stroke patients treatment measures.

In cosmetic studies

targeted Beauty hand cures with cream packs under heat application of ergotherapy gloves. It has heating the internal grains a special significance.

By the heat influence the grain filling is the applied cream pack liquid and spreads evenly the skin surface, through the opening the sensitized skin surface can be recorded unhindered.

In private or athletic areas

at Smoldering or bruising in the hand areas, which is commonplace Life or sports activities can not always be avoided, the ergotherapy gloves cause through the different heat / cold application rapid relief of pain and remarkably pleasant gentle Improvement of the affected areas.

Applications in Therapeutic / Cosmetic areas:

The Ergotherapy gloves are made of pure cotton and stuffed with biological spelled grains.

In the microwave heats up favor she soothes the circulation of the hands. Accordingly, a refreshment for cold and sick hands. When rubbing together the warm ergotherapy gloves developed through the inside organic spelled grains a Gentle pleasant massage effect.

at Bruises and swelling of the hands support them as a soothing Help alleviate by harnessing as a "cold compress".

Possible applications in "wellness areas":

The Become hands while thick with common ones Hand cream creamed and striped in plastic disposable gloves. These are the ergotherapy gloves in the microwave or the Oven heated.

To heating The occupational therapy gloves are over the plastic disposable gloves striped. A curative warm feeling starts over hands to distribute and the applied hand cream pulls in leisurely the skin.

The Become hands supple and delicate.

Marking and description of occupational therapy gloves for therapeutic Applications and beauty care use:

Known are filling properties with large capacity (see Spelled grain cushion) without separating areas or chambers. Gloves with organic spelled grain filling are not known.

These technical innovation, first to make special gloves, these two-sided (with chambers to provide and then biological in this new manufacturing technology spelled grains fill is new.

The gloves are hand-held and have 4 chambers in the palm area (see 4. Drawings-Separate View 1 - Filling Grain Chambers 1.1 - 1.4 ); the thumb area is splayed in a radius of 45 degrees and carries there another seam, which gives a fifth chamber; the chambers of the glove are on the top, as well as on the bottom of the glove.

The filling of the chambers consists of biological spelled grains (see 4. Drawings-Separate View 2 - Grain chamber filling spelled grains 1.2 - 2.4 ).

The chambers are an integral and integral part of the gloves and position the fillings consisting of biological spelled grains (see 4. Drawings - Separate View - 3 - Chambers 3.1 - 4.3 ).

The seams of the chambers ( 1.4 . 2.4 . 4.3 ) in the palm area have a variable length of 24 to 26 cm, the seam in the thumb area ( 4.4 ) has a length of 5 cm (see 4th Drawings-Separate View 4 - Chamber seams 1.4 - 4.4 ).

The 8 chambers, 4 on the top and 4 more on the bottom of the glove are filled with biological spelled grains (total weight of the spelled grains about 600 grams) (see 4. Drawings - Separate View - 5 Chamber filling - biological spelled grains 1.5 - 4.5 ).

In the hand opening area there is a collar that is about 4 cm wide, which can be folded down as required, thus regulating the amount and density of biological spelled grains (see 4. Drawings-Separate View- 6 - Chamber filling collar - variable 1.6 )

The gloves are in pairs in a Tra pocket system in the form of a pillow that opens up the matching functional possibilities of a spelled grain pad. This ingenious and useful innovation is new.

Technical innovation of ergotherapy gloves

Variable collar at the hand opening:

in the Area of the hand opening there is a foldable collar, which in its function a, particular significance is attributable. By turning the Kragens the density of the internal grain chambers is regulated, which then as desired, the effect when applied to the skin surface corrected or influenced.

In order to changed depending on need or necessity, the therapeutic / cosmetic / medical Mode of action of the ergotherapy glove.

Technical improvement of occupational therapy gloves

Packaging Transport bag cushion:

When Packaging unit of ergotherapy gloves serves a special Pillowcase which in size both Gloves is made. Speciality and technical sophistication is that when using ergotherapy gloves these in the Cushions like the filling a spelled grain pillow and the soothing effect of a such is achieved.

The Packed occupational therapy gloves in pillow case can then adjusted as desired to other body surfaces become.

Technical advice:

The Ergotherapy gloves unfold their effect after warming up in the microwave at 600 W after 1 to 3 minutes or in the oven at 120 degrees after 10 minutes.

To Cool the ergotherapy gloves opened the appropriate mode of action in the refrigerator after 20 minutes or in the refrigerator compartment after 10 minutes.
