Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device with a seat holder to improve the spinal muscles by Training these muscles with vibrations without extreme Movement rashes.
  • Exercise equipment to improve the function of the spinal muscles are widely known.
  • Therapeutic starting point is the physiological back posture of the correctly seated Rider. It corresponds to that required in the back school Posture of the spine. So the patient sits with physiological, muscular stabilized lumbar lordosis in the saddle. The main stress points when sitting are the ischial legs. When you step, there is a transfer of the three-dimensional Vibration rhythm of the horse's back on the Patient.
  • the first movement component is the step movement horse induced pelvic movement in the frontal direction with pelvic tilt and pelvic erection.
  • the lower lumbar spine is forced to take the lordosis ingested to vary constantly.
  • the second movement component is a small, step-dependent one Lateral flexion that always affects the respective tuberosity Ischii hits when the lumbar spine is at its maximum their lordotic curvature.
  • the third movement component is an up and down movement of the Upper body along a slightly tilted vertical axis.
  • EP 0 612 542 A1 describes a plate with a seat, which are stored on three stands and in several camps and joints are kept movable. By an engine with different crank disks and drive disks become one or more of the legs periodically around three axes moved with a preferred direction. Through the fixed assignment of the dimensions, however, the movements cannot be individually Taxes.
  • the invention has for its object a device to create of the type mentioned, in which by the multidimensional transmission of vibration pulses complex Training effects are achieved that are similar to those that occur with the various forms of riding therapy, over this however due to the frequency and amplitude free controllability of the various movement components go out.
  • the Multi-dimensional seat mount around at least one pivot point is movably mounted and the device has drive means, with which the seat holder multidimensional movement impulses are feedable.
  • These movements solve alternating loads on the ischial legs of the seat device admitted person with this a lateral flexion of the Spine and also cause a change in the Pelvic tilt position, so that stability and function of the Improve spinal muscles.
  • a possible rotation causes a rotation along the longitudinal axis of the spine. Through a parabolic movement, the subject's body becomes accelerated below its center of gravity.
  • Adjustable rocking movements in the longitudinal direction can be reach when the seat holder is facing forward and up a circular path is held pivotable about a pivot point, the seat holder remains aligned horizontally.
  • Angular momentum on the pelvis as well as the spine can be achieved if the seat mount is around its vertical Axis is held rotatably.
  • the device has a riding saddle-like seat device that around their Longitudinal axis in frequency and amplitude adjustable tilting movements can perform so that an additional leg spread he follows.
  • Rotations around the vertical axis of the seat holder with a Foot and a stand for holding the seat holder can run when the drive means turn the stand around to rotate its vertical axis.
  • the device can be used daily if it is as an office chair is designed in which the seat with Drive means is provided
  • the device has a foot on which a stand is attached, the carries a U-shaped fork when between the ends of the fork a cranked shaft is rotatably supported when on the cranked shaft part an intermediate carrier rotatably attached and if the seat holder in the longitudinal direction of the intermediate carrier is also rotatably mounted
  • the device can have a riding saddle-like seat device as the seat receptacle.
  • This seating device can perform tilting movements that can be regulated in frequency and amplitude about its longitudinal axis ( X axis ).
  • This seat device also performs tilting movements about its transverse axis ( Y axis ), the deflection of which in turn can be adjusted in frequency and amplitude.
  • the seat device in turn performs frequency and amplitude variable rocking movements in the longitudinal direction.
  • the device can make rotations around its vertical axis ( Z axis ).
  • the seating device is simplified as a barrel 1 shown so that the directions of movement of the invention orthopedic device illustrated in more detail can be.
  • the x-axis is 2, the y-axis 3 and the z-axis 4 and two pivot points 5 and 6 registered.
  • the tilting movement is explained with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3.
  • the device is shown in side view.
  • the lower pivot 5 can be the x-axis 2 and thus the barrel 1 be tilted forward and back.
  • the device is a front view to see.
  • the device can also be additionally rotate around the z-axis 4.
  • Figure 8 is a device for generating a controlled Movement sequence shown with a foot 10 on to which a stand 11 is attached, which has a U-shaped fork 12 wearing.
  • a cranked shaft 13 is rotatable between the ends thereof stored.
  • An intermediate carrier is on the cranked shaft part 14 15 stored on the one in its longitudinal direction
  • Seat receptacle 16 is also rotatably mounted.
  • the fork 12 can be in the foot 10 or stand 11 attached drive means in the direction of the double arrow 21 twist about its vertical axis.
  • the device shown in Figure 8 is expedient covered with a lining, not shown, which rests firmly on the seat receptacle 16, so that the movement impulses be transferred to them. You can with one riding saddle-like seat device.
  • a foot receptacle can be rigidly attached to the foot 10 of the device be it the one in one at the Seat holder 16 fixed saddle allowed seated person by placing your feet on it, an additional change to reach the hip flexion. This foot shot rest in relation to the floor. But it can also move freely be hung up.
  • the movement impulses can according to the invention through electric motors, electromagnets, hydraulic devices or the like. are triggered. You can ... a include smooth or pulse-like movement.
  • the device described above is freely movable in all directions, namely laterally tiltable about the X-axis and Y-axis , on a device which can be deflected circularly along the X-axis and through which the seat receptacle 16 together with the device carrying it is additionally along the Z.
  • -Axle can be moved up and rotatable about the Z-axis . All these movements are carried out by a drive that is adjustable in frequency and amplitude.
  • Such a device can be used for therapeutic purposes Treatment in medical practices, rehab clinics or the like. deploy.
  • Chairs or other seating devices can also be used equip it so that, for example, during a Paperwork on an office chair equipped according to the invention sitting the back muscles without interrupting the Work can be trained.
