Definitions

  • the present invention essentially relates to the motor rehabilitation sector, with particular reference to the rehabilitation of the upper limbs and shoulders.
  • rehabilitation occurs by means of specially trained personnel (for example physiotherapists) and/or by means of special machinery, usually very expensive and complicated.
  • the main scope of the present invention is that of overcoming the aforementioned drawbacks by providing an apparatus that is easily portable, easy to use and simple to manufacture.
  • a portable rehabilitation apparatus with a vertical support structure, along which move vertically the means for moving the upper limb and/or shoulder of a patient or user, comprising means of control allowing the user themselves to start/stop said means of movement.
  • the invention comprises: a lower base 13 onto which is secured a supporting structural element 10 and a vertical rail, along which run the means of movement of one upper limb and/or one shoulder, as well as a control unit 3 for means of operation of the aforementioned means of movement.
  • said means of movement are essentially constituted by a carriage or chassis 6 running vertically with an alternating motion along said vertical rail 10.
  • a handle or grip 4 which the user must grasp in order to perform the passive motor rehabilitation movement.
  • the control unit 3 allows the speed of the movement of the carriage 6 to be adjusted by appropriately controlling the means of activation comprising a motor, preferably electric 2, fitted with appropriate gears, of known type.
  • control unit 3 it is possible to adjust the rehabilitative movement by means of the control unit 3 or, more simply, by means of the special upper and lower limit switches 16, which can be moved along the vertical rail 10 as appropriate, in order to change the direction of movement of the motor 2 (for example by operating relays which reverse the polarity of the power supply).
  • said motor reducer 2 turns an upper pulley 11 which draws a belt or cable 7 held tight by means of a lower pulley 8 which turns idly on a hub mounted on a special lower stay 9.
  • the belt or cable 7 defines two parallel vertical limbs: one descendent (ascendant) and the other ascendant (descendent).
  • the carriage 6 is firmly fixed to one of said limbs of the belt or cable 7, so that each rotation of the pulleys 11 and 8 corresponds to a displacement of the carriage 6 itself along the vertical guide and support element 10.
  • the example embodiment described envisages the cable 7 being fixed to the carriage 6 by means of one or more clamps 15. Furthermore, said limit switches 16 are preferably activated by corresponding locator elements fixed to the cable 7.
  • said vertical guide and support element 10 is constituted by two circular cross section tubular vertical arms, and the moveable carriage 6 comprises at least one tube or sleeve, coaxial to one of them.
  • the body of the carriage comprises a transverse forked element adapted to running along the second vertical support pole (figure 2).
  • the body of the carriage comprises a second tube or sleeve, fixed to the former, adapted to running along the second vertical pole.
  • the carriage has an essentially "H" shaped body, wherein the two vertical parts are the sleeves, running along the vertical support poles (figure 8).
  • a second embodiment of the invention envisages fixing an anatomical support 5 for the forearm (figures 4-7) to the vertically moving carriage, in addition to or in place of the hand grip.
  • Said support 5 is fixed essentially transversally with respect to the vertical guide element 10.
  • said forearm support 5 has, at the same time as the alternating vertical movement already described, an additional rotational movement which raises/lowers the wrist with respect to the elbow (figures 6-7).
  • One particular characteristic of the invention comprises said rotational movement of the forearm being obtained by fixing said forearm support 5 in a way that can be rotated, to the moving carriage 6 with one end of the support itself hinged to a lower connecting rod B, the opposite end of which is fixed below to the vertical guide and support element 10. This way, particularly simple and effective articulated motion is achieved, without any need to modify the means of movement already described.
  • the means of supplying power comprises a transformer 1 for reducing the voltage of the mains supply to that of said aforementioned motor, for example to 24 Volts.
  • one interesting variant of the means of movement of the carriage 6, comprises - in place of the system of pulleys 11, 8 and belt or cable 7 - a screw drive system wherein the screw is arranged vertically and is engaged within a corresponding female nut joined or fixed to the carriage 6, thus meaning that each rotation of the screw, driven by the motor reducer 2, corresponds to a given vertical displacement of the screw drive, and hence the carriage 6 fixed thereto: reversing the direction of rotation of the screw obviously reverses the direction of displacement of the carriage.
