Definitions

  • This invention refers to an attachment which is applicable to anything which has a back rest which can move and achieve different angles other than horizontal.
  • the invented attachment comes from the conventional structure of a reclining chair and consists of two rectangular frames which are joined hinge wise; ensuring that one of them is longer than the other. As they are both the same width and both incorporate a panel which is hinged to the respective frame, this offers the possibility to tilt from an inoperative or horizontal position, to a vertical one.
  • This permits the user to achieve different reclining positions, thanks to a bracket which is jointed on one side to the rear face of the panel and connected to the frame on the other side by an internal rail which slides the bracket in order to slide the rail and can be anchored in at any point the user decides in order to obtain the desired inclination of the panel.
  • One of the panels is used to support the torso of the user whilst the other is used to support the legs; the longest panel supporting the legs and the shorter panel supporting the upper body.
  • the invention is characterised by the fact that this structure is also complemented by armrests which are detachable and offer the advantage of being able to be set at different heights, with respect to the shortest panel which corresponds to the panel which supports the back of the user. This is necessary in order to achieve its function regardless of the height of the user or their position in respect to the shortest panel.
  • arm rests are flat and slightly arched and at one end, an anchorage system is included whereby they are fitted onto the rear, interior of the shorter panel which supports the back of the user. The arm rests will support the arms of the user and always remain the same distance apart thanks to the arm rests being slightly arched.
  • the device described allows the user to stretch their muscles easily and comfortably and allows them to keep their arms aligned correctly during these stretching exercises. This eliminates the body's need to offset the effects of the stretching and rebalance of the shortened muscles.
  • the two panels it is possible to adjust and establish different positions or angles depending on the availability and possibilities of the user, ensuring that they avoid a forced position which makes it difficult to execute the exercises well, especially for those with limited flexibility, inflexibility of the muscles or elderly people.
  • the invention can be used by people of all ages. In the case of those suffering from special medical conditions, it is recommended that the user contact their doctor before using this product.
  • the invented device is applicable to many different types of reclining chairs, in the chosen example, which is not to say that other examples could not be used, the reclining chair includes a rectangular frame (2), mounted upon which there is a hinged referenced (4) panel (6), which can occupy positions of different angles, which is held in these positions by a rear bracket (7), which on one side is articulated to the rear face of the panel and on the other side it slides the frame (2) on a lateral, internal rail.
  • This rail has to have a space at each end to accommodate it (7) in order to maintain the reclined position of the corresponding panel (6).
  • the frame (2) includes legs (11) which are attachable and detachable and can be any length.
  • the panel (6) which supports the torso of the user is complemented by two arm rests (12) which are equipped with two rods or bars (13) on one end in order to insert them into holes made on the sides of a piece (15) situated on the interior part of the main panel (6).
  • the arm rests (12) stay on the same level as the panel (6) and remain attached without moving position even if the angle of the panel is changed.
  • the piece (15) which is to the rear of the main panel and supports the arm rests (12), has many holes which are all the same distance apart, two of which allow the insertion of the two rods or bars (3) on the arm rests (12), which allow the possibility of changing the position of the arm rests (12) in order to adapt to the height of the user.
  • the circular design of the arm rests (12) would have a radius which would allow the continual support of the upper arm, if the arms are out stretched and crossed or pulled in closer to the body.
