Definitions
- the invention relates to a seat device consisting of a foot part, an intermediate piece connected to the foot part and a seat connected to the intermediate piece, which is formed with two individual seat halves, wherein the seat halves are movable independently of one another, and between Seat and the intermediate piece a coupling device is present.
- an active-dynamic seat device which has a foot part and an intermediate piece connected to the foot part.
- a seat is arranged, which is formed in two parts.
- the two seat part halves are mutually independently vertically resiliently connected to the intermediate piece and each have a support member on which a seat half is movably arranged on a hinge so that it can be tilted forward and backward.
- a seat with a cup-shaped seat member and a back member for supporting the back is known, wherein the back member is pivotally mounted about an axis extending parallel to the user's spine.
- the seat element is connected via a coupling element with the pivotable back element, wherein the headrest pelelement proportionally transmits a rotational movement of the backrest in a lateral rotational movement of the seat element about the ventral-dorsal axis and vice versa.
- the pelvis moves three-dimensionally, d. H. it performs rotations around all spatial axes as well as translations in the direction of the spatial axes. Due to the change from walking to sitting, at least one translatory and one rotational degree of freedom are blocked in the described seat constructions. Also changes with such a change the burden of the spine or the intervertebral discs.
- the pressure load during walking in a train-pressure load during sitting whereby the discs on the dorsal side to train and on the ventral side are subjected to pressure changes.
- the highest stress occurs in the region of the vertebrae S1-L4, since the curvature in sitting is greatest here in comparison with standing.
- the L4 - L5 vertebrae connect to the os sacrum and are deprived of their natural mobility due to the interplay of spinal curvature and blockage of the degrees of freedom. As a result, individual discs can prematurely wear out and degenerate. This in turn leads to back pain and sometimes permanent damage to the intervertebral discs. Thus, the natural three-dimensional pelvic movement is blocked with its six possibilities of movement (three rotations about the spatial axes and three translations).
- the invention is based on the object to provide a seat device which avoids the disadvantages of conventional seats and in particular allows a three-dimensional pelvic movement.
- the object is achieved by a seat device with the features of claim 1.
- the seat device consists of a foot part, an intermediate piece connected to the foot part and a seat connected to the intermediate piece, which is formed with two individual seat halves.
- the seat halves are movable independently of each other, wherein between the seat and the intermediate piece a coupling device is formed, which has at least one means, whereby the seat halves translationally in all spatial directions and rotatory about all spatial axes are movable.
- the idea according to the invention is to open up the possibility of carrying out unrestricted three-dimensional pelvic movements while sitting down.
- the lumbar vertebrae and the pelvis are not blocked in their natural motion, but are movable both translationally and rotationally in all directions.
- the advantageous effect of the inventive coupling device is essentially to replace the negative loads during sitting by dynamic movements of the lumbar spine and the pelvis, which correspond to those during walking. The majority of the body weight is carried by the seat bumps when sitting.
- each seat half it is preferable to arrange at least one such means under each seat half. This is how it is possible to provide both pelvic canines with optimum support when sitting. This also allows for a wide variety of sitting positions and promotes well-being and mobility when sitting in any position and posture.
- the at least one means favorably at least one elastic and / or a damping element. This allows a simple adaptation to the anatomical position of the ischial tuberosities of each seat occupant.
- the elastic and / or damping element consists of a rubber block that ensures mobility and also absorbs the pelvis soft.
- the elastic and / or damping element is embodied as a fluid-filled chamber, in particular as a gel pad, wherein the element, similar to the rubber block, permits a translatory displacement in the direction of the spatial axes and / or a rotation about the spatial axes , Alternatively, it is also possible to form the element from hydraulic cylinders.
- an element is arranged under each seat half, wherein both elements communicate with each other are connected.
- the coupling device has a mechanism for adjusting the distance between the seat halves. Since people of different sex and age have different distances of the ischial tuberosities, this fact is thus taken into account. Consequently, such a seat device is suitable for men and women of all ages.
- the mechanism has, for example, a hand wheel, by means of which rotation the distance can be adjusted in an easy manner.
- a coupling device has at least one sliding region, which allows horizontal displacement. It is advantageous to design at least one sliding area per seat surface.
- the at least one sliding region is advantageously designed as a linear guide, wherein the guide of the seat and coupling device of z. B. a dovetail guide is formed.
- a guide is possible by means of rolling elements.
- the coupling device has at least one tilting mechanism for at least one seat half. The inclination is preferably only possible around a ventral-dorsal axis, but may also deviate from the ventral-dorsal axis even with a special design.
- At least one seat half with respect to the position to the other presettable and / or limited in terms of their mobility by means of a arranged on the coupling device and / or on the tilting mechanism actuating mechanism.
- This is also advantageous because women and men have a different Weghöckerabstand. In this way, the inclination or the pelvic movement can be adjusted in both their intensity and in their deflection according to personal or therapeutic requirements.
- the seat can also be adapted to the age of the person sitting, as younger people are usually more mobile than older people.
- the seat device advantageously has a return mechanism, which returns at least the seat half in a starting position.
- a seat half For the correct operation of the return mechanism, it is advantageous to arrange this between a seat half and the coupling device.
- each seat half has such a return mechanism.
- the seat device may comprise a device in which the force for changing the position of a seat half in and around all spatial directions is adjustable. In this way, the needs of users with regard to the pelvic movement can be exactly met. It is also possible to treat malpositions of the pelvis due to, for example, surgical interventions on the hip. Such a therapy can specifically train the musculature by adjusting the restoring force while sitting. Thus, those persons who work during their working hours can relieve their symptoms. Consequently, the seat device according to the invention can serve not only to relieve pain but also to promote the healing process.
- the return mechanism comprises a spring and / or a tension band.

- the seat device according to the invention on a footboard with pendulum joint thus more degrees of freedom and movement opportunities are opened to the seat occupant.
- the three-dimensional, natural movement of the pelvis is modeled while walking while sitting, the slippage of the intervertebral discs is not only possible, but also promoted.
- the mobility of the seat device is limited by means of variable stops. This allows people with limited hip mobility to grope slowly to greater flexibility. Consequently, it can be avoided by such a stop that with immobile seat users by a high mobility of the seat device, in particular in the arrangement on a pendulum stool, an overuse or a sense of uncertainty arises.
- the coupling device is rotatably mounted on the intermediate piece. Rotary movements about the body axis are thus also possible.
- the seat halves provide a device with which the independently movable seat halves are blocked. Persons to whom strong mobility of the seat halves is uncomfortable, thus temporarily limited, but still use a seat device according to the above features.
- the seat device detects the seating position by means of at least one sensor and preferably has a device for feedback.
- the seat device detects the seating position by means of at least one sensor and preferably has a device for feedback.
- a convexly sloped seating arrangement therefore, aids in the naturally correct posture whereby the ischial tuberosars tend to outwardly and adjust to the "inflair" of the upper pelvic margins, which promotes appropriate lordosis lordosis.
- the sensors can detect all movements of the seats.
- the sensors can detect inclination, angle of rotation and translatory movements.
- pressure sensors Also possible are pressure sensors. So it is possible to capture the current position of the ischial tuberosities.
- the seating device may have optical, acoustic and / or haptic elements.
- Haptic elements can send feedback to a seated person by means of vibrations, whereas acoustic z. B. can generate a warning tone.
- acoustic z. B. can generate a warning tone.
- different-colored light sources can be used, which in each case have a color of a light source for the various arrangements of the seat surface.
- a red signal indicates an undesired pelvic position, with a horizontal or convex inclination producing a green flare. Too strong a convex tilt of the seats, in turn, creates an undesirable seating position and glows orange.
- a white light source is provided. Consequently, sensors with a corresponding feedback can also serve to set the optimum distance of the seats from each other. Also, ideally, the sensors for the feedback are connected to a computer that uses a software to make the user aware of his sitting position. A connection is made for example with a cable or via radio.
- the seat device is suitable with sensors for controlling software (eg a computer game) or even hardware (eg a lifting platform).
