These springs provide additional force to help the handicapped person to move the hip or knee joints. A gas spring is the preferred form of spring. USE - Aid for the physically handicapped.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Unterstützung von Bewegungen zweier durch ein Gelenk miteinander verbundener Körperteile.The present invention relates to a device to support movements of two by one Jointed body parts.

Bei vielerlei Arten von Erkrankungen der Gelenke, ins­ besondere des Bewegungsapparates, wie sie beispielsweise bei rheumatischen Erkrankungen auftreten können, weiter bei verminderter Muskelkraft, z. B. durch Muskelschwund oder dergleichen, bedeutet es für den Kranken eine er­ hebliche körperliche Belastung, die entsprechenden Glied­ maßen zu bewegen.In many types of diseases of the joints, ins special of the musculoskeletal system, such as can occur in rheumatic diseases with reduced muscle strength, e.g. B. by muscle loss or the like, it means one for the sick considerable physical strain, the appropriate link to move moderately.

Vielfach ist eine Bewegungsmöglichkeit auf Grund der ver­ minderten Muskelkraft gar nicht mehr möglich, so daß der Kranke auf die Hilfe anderer angewiesen ist, wodurch sich natürlich mannigfaltige Nachteile ergeben.Often there is a possibility of movement due to the ver reduced muscle strength is no longer possible, so that Sick relies on the help of others, which makes naturally manifold disadvantages.

So hat der Betroffene nicht nur körperlich unter den Be­ schwernissen zu leiden, sondern auch in phsychischer Hin­ sicht wirkt sich seine Krankheit äußerst negativ aus, da ihn eine unter Umständen schwere Bewegungsminderung und das möglicherweise wie bereits angesprochene Angewiesensein auf fremde Hilfe sehr stark belastet.This means that the person affected not only has physical support difficult to suffer, but also in psychological terms his illness has an extremely negative effect because him a possibly severe reduction in movement and which may have been instructed, as already mentioned heavily burdened with outside help.

Die bekannten Möglichkeiten hier Abhilfe zu schaffen, er­ schöpfen sich darin, dem Kranken Krücken oder ähnliche Arten von Gehhilfen zur Verfügung zu stellen, die jedoch keine echte Erleichterung darstellen.The known ways to remedy this, he scoop it up, crutches or similar for the sick To provide types of walking aids, however is not a real relief.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt daher die Auf­ gabe zu Grunde, eine Vorrichtung zu schaffen, mit der die Bewegungsmöglichkeit durch Krankheit beein­ trächtigter Glieder verbessert wird.The present invention is therefore based on was based on creating a device with which affects the possibility of movement due to illness pregnant parts is improved.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Körperteile jeweils mit diesen gegenüber ortsfesten Manschetten oder dergleichen versehen sind, die durch mindestens einen Kraftspeicher mit­ einander verbunden sind.According to the invention, this object is achieved by that the body parts face each other with these provide stationary cuffs or the like are using at least one energy accumulator are connected.

Durch diesen Kraftspeicher, der nach einer vorteil­ haften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung als Gasdruckfeder ausgebildet ist, ist ein erheblich einfacheres Be­ wegen der entsprechenden Körperglieder möglich. Es besteht sogar die Möglichkeit, Körperglieder, die bislang gar nicht mehr bewegt werden konnten, nun durch Unterstützung des Kraftspeichers wieder zu betätigen.Through this energy accumulator, which according to an advantage stick embodiment of the invention as a gas pressure spring is a much easier Be possible because of the corresponding limbs. There is even the possibility of limbs that previously could not be moved, now by Activate support of the energy store again.

Der Vorteil einer Gasdruckfeder besteht darin, daß es einfach ist, die erforderliche Federkraft individuell einzustellen, wobei diese bestimmt wird vom Körpergewicht, dem Abstand zu den Gelenkpunkten und dem Abstand des Knies zur Hüfte, wenn der Kraftspeicher zur Unterstützung des Kniegelenks bzw. des Hüftgelenks eingesetzt werden soll.The advantage of a gas pressure spring is that it is easy to individually adjust the spring force required adjust, which is determined by the body weight, the distance to the articulation points and the distance of the knee to the hip when the lift mechanism to support the Knee joint or hip joint is to be used.

Bei Einsatz des Kraftspeichers im Hüftgelenkbereich ist am Rumpf des Kranken ein Korsett festzulegen, während die zweite Manschette am Oberschenkel befestigt wird.When using the energy store in the hip joint area to fix a corset on the patient 's torso while the second cuff is attached to the thigh.

Die Konstruktion erlaubt es, daß die Vorrichtung, auf Grund ihrer geringen Abmessungen, unter der Kleidung ge­ tragen werden kann, so daß sie auch diesbezüglich den an Krankengeräte gestellten Forderungen gerecht wird. The construction allows the device to be Because of their small size, under the clothes ge can be worn, so that they also the demands made on medical devices.  

Besonders geeignet ist die Vorrichtung zum Laufen auf einer schiefen Ebene oder zum Treppensteigen, wobei beim Strecken des Gelenks durch das Körper­ gewicht die Gasdruckfeder in ihre Ausgangslage ge­ bracht wird.The device is particularly suitable for running on an incline or for climbing stairs while stretching the joint through the body weight the gas spring in its initial position is brought.

Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet.Further advantageous embodiments of the invention are marked in the subclaims.

Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung werden nach­ folgend anhand der Zeichnungen beschrieben. Es zeigtEmbodiments of the invention are based on described below with reference to the drawings. It shows

Fig. 1 ein im Schaubild dargestellter Be­ nutzer mit erfindungsgemäß angelegten Vorrichtungen, Fig. 1 shows a user in the graph shown Be applied with devices according to the invention,

Fig. 2 eine erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung in einer Einzelheit in einer Seitenansicht dargestellt, Fig. 2 shows a device according to the invention in a detail in a side view shown,

Fig. 3 eine Reihe von Bewegungsfolgen eines eine Vorrichtung nach der Erfindung tragenden Kranken. Fig. 3 shows a series of movements of a patient wearing a device according to the invention.

Eine in der Fig. 1 dargestellte Person trägt ein den Bauchbereich umschließendes Korsett 1, das zur besseren Abstützung sich bis unter die Achseln der Person erstrecken kann, wie es durch die gestrichelte Linie angedeutet ist, sowie Manschetten 2, 3, von denen die Manschette 2 den Ober­ schenkel und die Manschette 3 den Unterschenkel unmittelbar unterhalb des Kniegelenks umschließen.A person shown in FIG. 1 wears a corset 1 enclosing the abdominal area, which for better support can extend up to the armpits of the person, as indicated by the dashed line, and cuffs 2, 3 , of which the cuff 2 the upper leg and the cuff 3 enclose the lower leg immediately below the knee joint.

Die Manschetten 2 sind im Bereich der Außenseite des Ober­ schenkels durch Kraftspeicher, beispielsweise in Form von Gasdruckfedern wie sie in der Fig. 2 dargestellt sind, einerseits mit dem Korsett 1 und andererseits mit der Man­ schette 3 verbunden. The cuffs 2 are in the area of the outside of the upper leg by energy storage, for example in the form of gas pressure springs as shown in FIG. 2, on the one hand with the corset 1 and on the other hand with the cuff 3 connected.

Wie die Fig. 2 sehr deutlich zeigt, ist die Druck­ gasfeder 4 im seitlichen Kniekehlenbereich verlaufend angeordnet, wobei sie zweckmäßigerweise schwenkbar mit den Manschetten 2, 3 verbunden ist.As FIG. 2 shows very clearly, the pressure gas spring 4 is arranged to extend in the side area of the hollow of the knee, wherein it is expediently pivotably connected to the cuffs 2, 3 .

Beim Strecken des Beines wird die Bewegung durch die Gasdruckfeder 4 unterstützt, d. h., die Verbindungs­ bereiche an der Manschette 2 bzw. der Manschette 3 mit der Gasdruckfeder 4 werden gespreizt.When the leg is stretched, the movement is supported by the gas pressure spring 4 , ie the connection areas on the cuff 2 or the cuff 3 with the gas pressure spring 4 are spread.

Beim Knicken des Beines wirkt das Körpergewicht teilweise auf die Gasdruckfeder 4 und drückt diese, unter Über­ windung der Federkraft zusammen.When the leg is bent, the body weight partially acts on the gas pressure spring 4 and presses it together, overcoming the spring force.

In der Fig. 3 ist ein Bewegungsablauf dargestellt, wobei von rechts nach links gesehen zunächst eine höhere, dann eine weniger hohe Stufe begangen wird.In FIG. 3, a movement sequence is shown, wherein seen from right to left first of all a higher, is then committed a less high level.

Zur Verteilung der Körperlast auf große Flächen ist das Korsett, wie es in der Fig. 1 dargestellt ist, bis unter die Arme verlaufend.To distribute the body load over large areas, the corset, as shown in FIG. 1, extends below the arms.

Da in den gezeigten Steigstellungen der Oberkörper und die Manschette 3, die am Unterschenkel festgelegt ist, praktisch parallel zueinander verlaufen, sind auch die Winkel zwischen Oberschenkel und Oberkörper und Oberschenkel und Unterschenkel gleich, so daß der Behinderte nicht in der Lage ist, selbst Kraft aufzubringen, um die Streckung des Beines zu vollziehen, die ja eine größere Kraft erfordert, als die durch die Gasdruckfeder 4 aufgebrachte.Since the upper body and the cuff 3 , which is attached to the lower leg, run practically parallel to one another in the ascending positions shown, the angles between the upper leg and upper body and the upper leg and lower leg are the same, so that the disabled person is unable to exert himself to perform the extension of the leg, which requires a greater force than that applied by the gas pressure spring 4 .

Es ist deshalb in vorteilhafter Weise vorgesehen, im Be­ reich der Gasdruckfeder 4 eine Handpumpe vorzusehen, mit der ein pneumatischer Zylinder entsprechend betätigt werden kann, so daß dadurch die fehlende Kraft aufgebracht wird. It is therefore advantageously provided to provide a hand pump in the gas spring 4 , with which a pneumatic cylinder can be actuated accordingly, so that the missing force is applied.

Um während des Steigens ein Zusammenschieben der Gasdruckfeder 4 durch das auftretende Körpergewicht zu verhindern, sind die Gasdruckfedern 4 stufenlos blockierbar.In order to prevent the gas pressure spring 4 from being pushed together during the ascent by the body weight occurring, the gas pressure springs 4 can be locked in a stepless manner.

Dieses geschieht zweckmäßigerweise gleichfalls durch eine Handsteuerung.This is also conveniently done through a manual control.
