Definitions

  • the invention relates to a training device for the pelvic floor muscles according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • WO 03/089071 A a training device is known, which has a pear-shaped main body. It has been found that this device is not able to ensure an optimal training effect for the local muscles.
  • US Pat. No. 2,763,265 A discloses a gynecological instrument for dilating the vagina.
  • the object of the present invention is to avoid these disadvantages and to further develop the device so that an improved effect is achieved.
  • the device according to the invention it is possible to perform a targeted and controlled training of the musculature in the pelvic floor area in a simple and controlled manner. It is essential that the insertion of the device is limited by an abutment surface which is chosen in its distance to the compression part so that the spherical working surface of the compression part lies exactly in the region of the muscle groups to be trained. Because the vaginal wall is substantially symmetrical on both sides of the equatorial line of the compression part of the work surface applies, in a contraction inward deformation of the compression part is achieved without exerting a significant axial thrust on the exercise device.
  • the training device is thereby positively included and opposes the force applied from the outside a resistance, the strength of which depends on the pressure exerted on the compression member. Overcoming this resistance creates a training effect that strengthens the affected muscle groups. For relaxed muscles - for example, after the end of training - the training device easily pulled outward and thus removed.
  • the display device which forms an indicator, to easily monitor the exercises performed and determine training progress.
  • a deformation of the main body takes place, which causes a tilting movement of the display device, which is optionally superimposed by an axial movement.
  • a particularly good training effect can be achieved if the axial length of the stop section is between 40% and 65% of the maximum diameter of the compression part. Furthermore, it is particularly favorable in this context if the axial length of the holding section is between 30% and 60% of the maximum diameter of the compression part.
  • the invention is characterized in that the display device is designed as an extendable rod.
  • the rod is held in a restricted manner in an opening in the holding section displaceable. In this way, in addition to effective indication of muscle tension a simple structure can be achieved, which allows a cost-effective production.
  • the main body is formed as a rubber bubble which is coated with a sliding layer and in particular when the sliding layer is formed as a loose fiber layer, which is impregnated with a lubricant.
  • the training device is designed as a disposable item.
  • the training device shown in the figures consists of a main body 1 with a compression part 1a, which has a work surface 2 on its outer side. In the axial direction, on one side, the compression part 1 a is adjoined by a first constriction 3, which continues in a stop section 4. Compared to the stopper portion 4 of the compression part 1a is in a second constriction 5, to which a holding portion 6 connects.
  • the compression part 1a is substantially spherical and has a diameter D adapted to the anatomical conditions of the woman, it being possible to offer the training device in two or more different sizes, for example for women who have already born and for those where this is not the case.
  • the total length L of the device is about 1.8 D, wherein the length L 1 of the stopper portion is 0.5 D and the length L 2 of the holding portion is 0.4 D.
  • an extendable rod 8 is mounted axially displaceable.
  • the rod 8 has at its ends a first thickening 9, which is arranged in the interior of the training device and prevents complete withdrawal. At the opposite end a second thickening 10 is provided, which allows the gripping and holding the rod 8 in a simplified manner.
  • the training device is first inserted into the vagina with the abutment section 4 until the abutment surface 11 of the abutment section 4 rests in the region of the vaginal canal of the cervix.
  • the tunica muscularis of the vagina encloses the working surface 2 of the main body 1 in this state and is stretched radially outwards by the compression part 1a.
  • the muscle tension can be monitored by the movement of the rod 8 caused by the deformation of the main body 1, so that the rod 8 is an indicator.
  • the second constriction 5 is in the region of the vaginal entrance and the holding section 6 is completely outside the female Body. As a result, the extraction of the training device is much easier.
  • the training device is made of a rubber bladder to allow for appropriate deformation.
  • the insertion into the vaginal area is facilitated by a sliding layer applied to the rubber bladder and consisting of a loose fibrous layer impregnated with a lubricant.
  • the training device is preferably designed as a disposable article, which allows a high level of hygiene. Use contrary to the intended purpose several times is thereby prevented or made considerably more difficult, that the sliding layer is largely destroyed after a single use, so that a repeated use prohibits.
