Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an improved device for the selective biomechanical stimulation of certain body parts.
  • Biomechanical Muscle Stimulation was developed in the late 1970s in Russia by Prof. Nazarov and used primarily in the field of competitive sports.
  • the BMS is based on a purely mechanical action on the human body with vibrations in a particular frequency and a certain amplitude, which are selected according to the desired application.
  • the vibrations that resemble and mimic the body's natural ones act on strained or stretched muscles along the muscle fiber.
  • the BMS thus generates positive effects on, for example, the circulatory and lymphatic systems.
  • BMS blood flow to the muscle or the corresponding body part.
  • This can be used to treat diseases such as peripheral circulatory disorders.
  • the BMS can be used in the cosmetic field, for example against wrinkling or cellulite.
  • the BMS is randomized with the aid of generated vibrations in more or less linear (vertical) direction performed. It comes to a hub, which adversely affects the user.
  • the devices are designed so that only a limited Number of body parts, for example, only the leg or arm area - the BMS can be subjected.
  • the BMS can be advantageously carried out when the stimulation is generated by a uniform circular or elliptical movement.
  • the device according to the invention thereby exerts not only a vertical force but also a substantially parallel pulling force. This leads to a significantly improved biomechanical stimulation of the body part located on the device.
  • the apparatus of the present invention comprises a base unit, a base unit attached to the base unit such that the position of the base unit relative to the base unit can be steplessly changed, and a cylindrical stimulation unit which includes a drive motor and is connected to the base unit such that it during operation a circular or elliptical movement about an axis which is different from the cylinder axis exerts, and thereby undergoes a parallel displacement.
  • the cylinder axis is the axis that passes through the center of the base and top surfaces of the basic unit of the stimulation unit.
  • the device is compact in comparison to known devices. According to a preferred embodiment, the longest dimension of the basic unit does not exceed 80 cm.
  • the base unit can be moved towards the base unit (folded state). Preferably, the moving of the base unit can be done manually via a foot pedal.
  • the device according to the invention has holding or carrying handles on the base and / or base unit.
  • the device is comparatively light and can be easily worn by 2 people, especially when folded.
  • the base unit is made of a material conventionally used for such components, for example of metal or a suitable plastic.
  • the base unit usually has at least one plate with sufficient dimensions to ensure a stable installation of the inventive device on a base such as a floor. But it is also possible to hang the device according to the invention on a wall or a ceiling.
  • the basic unit consists only of suitable conventional devices for attaching the rest of the device to the wall or ceiling.
  • the base unit furthermore preferably has at least one holding or carrying handle.
  • the base unit On the base unit, the base unit is movably mounted.
  • the attachment is preferably via at least one separate component. In this case, any corresponding common connection possibility can be used with which a solid component can be adjusted continuously.
  • the base unit is movably connected to the base unit via screws.
  • the stepless height adjustment and fixability is achieved in this preferred embodiment via at least one, preferably two spring connections, for example, with common gas springs, which connect together at another point base unit and base unit.
  • the height adjustment can be achieved by moving up or down the springs.
  • the springs can be connected to a foot pedal and so manually adjusted by pressing the foot pedal.
  • the base unit contains the device for controlling the motor contained in the stimulation unit.
  • the base unit is connected to the cylindrical stimulation unit.
  • the connection between the base unit and base unit has already been explained above.
  • the base unit is connected to the cylindrical stimulation unit such that the latter can perform the desired circular or elliptical movement during operation. This can be achieved in a conventional manner known to those skilled in the art.
  • the base unit and the stimulation unit are preferably connected to one another via the motor arranged in the stimulation unit.
  • the stimulation unit has an opening through which the motor located in the stimulation unit is connected to the base unit.
  • the base unit thus represents the motor base.
  • the base unit is designed in two parts.
  • the lower part of the base unit can be removed for assembly or maintenance purposes.
  • the motor located in the stimulation unit is accessible from outside via the opening described above.
  • the two parts of the base unit can be connected to each other in a conventional manner, for example by screws.
  • the base unit further preferably has at least one holding or carrying handle, in particular when only such a holding or carrying handle is arranged on the base unit.
  • the base unit is made of a material conventionally used for such components, preferably of metal.
  • the stimulation unit comprises a cylindrical base body, in the interior of which the drive motor is located.
  • the cylindrical base body is made of a metal conventionally used for such components. It is covered on its outside by a layer of a soft material such as foam or rubber.
  • the base surface or the top surface of the cylindrical base body is preferably designed to be removable.
  • Base and / or top surface also preferably have ventilation slots.
  • the drive motor is preferably a conventional electric motor with eccentric shaft.
  • both base and top surface are each connected via a ball bearing with the eccentric shaft of the drive motor such that the cylindrical body exerts during operation a circular or elliptical movement about an axis which is different from the cylinder axis, and in this case undergoes a parallel displacement.
  • This motion has already been described in pending European Patent Application Nos. 03028004.4 and 04000668.6, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
  • the movement is essentially characterized by the fact that the stimulation unit experiences virtually no stroke during operation, i.
  • the stroke is usually a maximum of 1-2 mm.
  • the stimulation unit thus experiences a uniform circular or elliptical movement.
  • the movement as a whole is forced and absolutely uniform. It has been shown that in this way the biomechanical muscle stimulation can be performed much more effectively than when the BMS is done by random and therefore non-uniform movements.
  • the device according to the invention thereby exerts not only a vertical force but also a substantially parallel pulling force. This results in significantly improved biomechanical stimulation of the body part located on the platform.
  • a circular movement is preferred.
  • a circular movement is understood to mean a movement which does not deviate more than 5% from an ideal circular movement.
  • the movement of the platform preferably takes place at a frequency of 5 to 50 Hz, preferably 5 to 35 Hz.
  • the drive motor is still connected at least to the base or the top surface via a plurality, preferably four rubber elements.
  • the stimulation unit has an opening through which the motor - after removal of one part of the base unit - is accessible for assembly or maintenance work.
