Abstract

The device is an unstable base e.g. a moveable spherical section within a frame. A person on the base is required to execute movements to stabilize it. Degree and quality of movement, especially resistance and inertia of the spherical section, can be set and controlled via mechanical devices. The base carries parts to fasten mechanical support systems for a person. Movement and size of movement can be detected and visualized by measuring systems.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine technische Erweiterung der in der Physiotherapie zu Therapiezwecken eingesetzten Varianten des instabilen Untergrundes; insbesondere des Therapiekreisels, einer Standfläche in Form eines Spherenabschnittes, bei dem auf der planen Fläche gestanden wird und der Spherenabschnitt als Bodenauflage eine Instabilität erzeugt, die der auf der planen Fläche Stehende aktiv ausgleichen muß (Stichwort "Therapiekreisel").The invention relates to a technical extension of that in physiotherapy for therapeutic purposes used variants of the unstable subsurface; especially the gyroscope, one Stand area in the form of a spherical section, in which standing on the flat surface and the Spheren section as a floor covering creates an instability that the standing on the flat surface active must balance (keyword "therapy spinning top").

Die neue Erfindung soll die Möglichkeit bieten, dieses Training in erweiterter, einstellbarer, kontrollierbarer (in Bezug auf Widerstand, Trägheit und Auslenkung), sowie dokumentierbarer Form durchzuführen. Ausserdem soll es die Möglichkeit schaffen, dieses Training auch mit nicht stehfähigen, bzw. balancefähigen Patienten durchzuführen.The new invention is intended to offer the possibility of this training in expanded, adjustable, controllable (in terms of resistance, inertia and deflection), as well as documentable form. In addition, it should make it possible to do this training even with people who are unable to stand or perform balanced patients.

Sinn der Erfindung/ProblemlösungPurpose of the invention / problem solving

Ein instabiler Untergrund schafft für eine darauf stehende, sitzende oder liegende Person die Notwendigkeit aktive Anpassungsvorgänge (Balance/Koordination/Gleichgewicht) vorzunehmen. Dies ist von therapeutisch großer Bedeutung und wird dementsprechend bei verschiedensten Störungen eingesetzt. Die Parameterkontrolle, d. h. der Grad der Instabilität und der Aufwand der Ausgleichsmaßnahmen werden dabei üblicherweise durch Hilfspersonen definiert.An unstable surface creates that for a person standing, sitting or lying on it Necessity to carry out active adjustment processes (balance / coordination / balance). This is of great therapeutic importance and is accordingly used for a wide variety of disorders used. The parameter control, i. H. the degree of instability and the effort of Compensatory measures are usually defined by assistants.

Die neuerfundene Lösung bietet nun die Möglichkeit mehrere Parameter dieser Instabilität einfach und sicher vom Gerät aus zu kontrollieren, einzustellen und zu manipulieren. Ebenso kann der Grad der Instabilität wie auch die erfolgten Ausgleichsmassnahmen quantitativ erfasst und dokumentiert werden.The reimagined solution now offers the possibility of several parameters of this instability simply and to be controlled, adjusted and manipulated safely from the device. Likewise, the degree of Instability as well as the compensatory measures taken are recorded and documented quantitatively.

Darüber hinaus bietet die Erfindung einen einfacheren, sicheren Zugang und hat die Möglichkeit unterschiedlichste Systeme an zusätzlichem Support zu integrieren. In addition, the invention offers easier, more secure access and has the possibility integrate different systems with additional support.  

Beschreibung der ErfindungDescription of the invention

Ein Spherenabschnitt aus beliebigem Material von geeigneter Größe wird in einer Rahmenkonstruktion mit kreisförmigem Ausschnitt gelagert, wobei der Durchmesser des freien Rahmeausschnittes etwas größer ist als der Basisdurchmesser des Spherenabschnittes.A sphere section made of any material of suitable size is in a frame construction stored with a circular cutout, the diameter of the free frame cutout somewhat is larger than the base diameter of the spherical section.

Die Lagerung muß durch geeignete bauliche Maßnahmen (Walzen-/Kugellager) möglichst reibungsarm ausgeführt sein und einen Bewegungsausschlag des gelagerten Spherenabschnittes in jeder beliebigen Richtung zulassen. Der Ausschlag des Spherenabschnittes soll dabei im Maximum 50° zur Horizontalen mit Bezug auf die Basisfläche des Spherenabschnittes betragen.The storage must be as low-friction as possible using suitable structural measures (roller / ball bearings) be executed and a movement deflection of the stored spherical section in any Allow direction. The deflection of the spherical section should be a maximum of 50 ° to the horizontal with respect to the base area of the spherical section.

Die Rahmenkonstruktion muß so beschaffen sein, daß der Spherenabschnitt bei Bewegung innerhalb der Lagerung keine Bodenberührung hat und es gleichzeitig für Personen einfachst möglich ist, die Basis­ fläche des Spherenabschnittes zu betreten bzw. zu erreichen.The frame construction must be such that the spherical section moves within the Storage has no ground contact and at the same time it is as simple as possible for people, the base to enter or reach the area of the sphere section.

Der Spherenabschnitt wird aus seinem Scheitel über ein flexibles, nachstellbares Band im Rahmen fixiert und kann damit in seinem Ausschlag begrenzt werden. Die Flexibilität des Bandes regelt die Härte des Grenzanschlages. Die Dehnfähigkeit des Bandes variiert den Bewegungswiderstand.The spherical section is fixed from its apex via a flexible, adjustable band in the frame and can thus be limited in its rash. The flexibility of the tape regulates the hardness of the Limit stop. The elasticity of the band varies the resistance to movement.

Durch Veränderung der Masse des Spherenabschnittes z. B. durch Einsätze mit verschiedener Materialfüllung oder Wasserballast kann die Trägheit der Standplatte (Spherenabschnitt) verändert werden.By changing the mass of the spherical section z. B. through operations with different Material filling or water ballast can change the inertia of the base plate (spherical section) become.

Auf der Basisfläche des Spherenabschnittes sind Möglichkeiten vorhanden verschiedenartige Stützen oder Befestigungen stabil zu montieren, um eine Verwendung im Stehen, im Sitzen und im Liegen für alle Personen, auch solche die nicht selbständig stehfähig sind, zu gewährleisten.Various types of supports are available on the base surface of the spherical section or fasten the brackets so that they can be used standing, sitting and lying down for everyone To guarantee people, even those who are not able to stand on their own.

Sensoren in der Rahmenaufhängung übernehmen und messen die Bewegungen des Spherenabschnittes. Diese Messungen können in Bezug zur Parametereinstellung von Ausschlag, Widerstand und Trägheit des Spherenabschnittes gesetzt werden und über eine Messauswertung dargestellt, ausgewertet und dokumentiert werden. Sensors in the frame suspension take over and measure the movements of the Spherical section. These measurements can be related to the parameter setting of deflection, Resistance and inertia of the spherical section are set and a measurement evaluation presented, evaluated and documented.
