Description

DESCRIPTION  DESCRIPTION
Dispositif permettant à une personn e en posture assise d' améliorer le repos et la q ua lité d u sommeil. Device enabling a person in a sitting posture to improve rest and sleep q ua lity.
La présente invention se rapporte à un dispositif The present invention relates to a device
permettant d ' améliorer le repos et d'accéder à un sommeil réparateur pour des personnes en posture assise dans un fauteuil ou dans un siège, par exemple, d' un moyen de transport lors de voyages de longues durées. to improve rest and access to restful sleep for persons in a chair or seat position, for example, a means of transport during long journeys.
Le dispositif permet d ' améliorer le repos et d ' accéder à un sommeil réparateur d' une personne en posture assise grâce à une position anatomique de la tête. Pour les voyages de longue durée, il existe des masques de sommeil pour occulter la lumière au niveau des yeux et des bouchons auditifs obstruant le bruit au niveau des oreilles, ce qui permet à la personne de s' isoler tant bien que mal de la lumière et du bruit environnant.  The device improves the rest and gives a restful sleep to a person in a sitting position thanks to an anatomical position of the head. For long-term trips, there are sleep masks to block the light in the eyes and ear plugs that block noise in the ears, allowing the person to isolate themselves from the light and surrounding noise.
Un problème réside toutefois dans le fait que, dans une posture assise, la tête n' est pas, dans la plupart des cas, maintenue dans une position anatomique ou alignée par rapport à l 'axe de la colonne vertébrale . Dans ces cas, la personne ne parvient pas à bénéficier d' un sommeil réel lui permettant de maintenir son état de forme générale. »  A problem however is that, in a sitting posture, the head is not, in most cases, held in an anatomical position or aligned with the axis of the spine. In these cases, the person can not benefit from a real sleep allowing him to maintain his state of general form. "
Il existe déj à des coussins gonflables qui viennent plus ou moins aider au processus de maintien de la tête en entourant la nuque. Si l 'utilisation de masques de sommeil, associés à l ' utilisation de coussins gonflables permettent à la personne de s ' assoupir dans un sommeil souvent précaire, ils ne permettent pas du tout un sommeil réparateur. There are already airbags that come more or less help the process of keeping the head around the neck. If the use of sleep masks, coupled with the use of airbags, allows the person to sleep in a sleep often precarious, they do not allow at all a restful sleep.
En effet, dormir en posture assise est possible, mais la tête tombe inévitablement du côté latérale ou s ' incline vers l' avant, même avec un coussin gonflab le .  Indeed, sleeping in a sitting posture is possible, but the head inevitably falls to the side or tilts forward even with an inflatable cushion.
Or, personne ne peut imaginer qu ' il est possible de pouvoir réellement bien dormir dans une posture assise, avec la tête maintenue dans une position, en substance verticale et anatomique, contre un appui-tête d'un siège ou d' un fauteuil .  However, no one can imagine that it is possible to be able to really sleep well in a sitting posture, with the head held in a position, in substance vertical and anatomical, against a headrest of a seat or an armchair.
Dans cette position, on ne ressent pas le poids de la tête car elle est alignée dans l' axe de la colonne vertébrale, c ' est à dire dans une position anatomique naturelle. Cette position procure à la personne une sensation d ' apesanteur, de légèreté et de bien être, tout en préservant entièrement son dos dans l ' alignement de l ' axe  In this position, one does not feel the weight of the head because it is aligned in the axis of the spine, that is to say in a natural anatomical position. This position gives the person a sensation of weightlessness, lightness and well being, while fully preserving his back in line with the axis.
vertébral . vertebral.
On connaît déj à dans le commerce, ou distribués dans les avions long-courriers, des masques obturateurs de lumière pour les yeux. Ces masques consistent généralement en une bande d' étoffe opaque et souple couvrant la surface des yeux, maintenue sur la tête par au moins une lanière ou ruban élastique .  Already known commercially, or distributed in long-haul aircraft, masks shutter light for the eyes. These masks generally consist of a strip of opaque and flexible cloth covering the surface of the eyes, held on the head by at least one strap or elastic band.
Un exemple de réalisation est décrit dans le document US 6.293.900 dans lequel le masque facial est muni d' éléments  An exemplary embodiment is described in document US Pat. No. 6,293,900 in which the face mask is provided with elements
magnétiques procurant une thérapie électromagnétique aux yeux et au visage. magnets providing electromagnetic therapy to the eyes and face.
Un autre exemple est décrit et illustré dans le document Another example is described and illustrated in the document
WO2004/035141 A l dans lequel le masque de voyage est maintenu sur le visage à l ' aide d' une bande sur laquelle peuvent se déplacer des bouchons d' oreilles pour bloquer les bruits environnants. Le masque est également muni de clapets rabattants pour l ' occultation des yeux contre la lumière. WO2004 / 035141 A 1 wherein the travel mask is held on the face with a band on which can move the ear plugs to block the surrounding noise. The mask is also equipped with folding flaps for concealing the eyes against light.
Toutefois, aucun de ces dispositifs ne permet de maintenir la tête de la personne dans une position anatomique, alignée dans l 'axe de la colonne vertébrale.  However, none of these devices can maintain the head of the person in an anatomical position, aligned in the axis of the spine.
Le but de la présente invention n' est pas uniquement de stabiliser la tête par rapport à l ' appui-tête mais également de remédier aux inconvénients des masques de sommeil actuellement The object of the present invention is not only to stabilize the head with respect to the headrest but also to remedy the disadvantages of sleep masks currently
commercialisés, par exemple, pour les voyages de longue durée. marketed, for example, for long-term journeys.
En effet, dans les dispositifs ex istants, la tête est certes protégée de la lumière et du bruit mais elle dodeline de gauche à · droite, ou s'appuie sur le menton lorsque le voyageur s ' assoupit. La conséquence est un repos non satisfaisant souvent accompagné d'effets négatifs tels que torticolis ou autres courbatures névralgiques.  Indeed, in existants devices, the head is certainly protected from light and noise but it dodeline from left to right, or leans on the chin when the traveler dozes off. The consequence is an unsatisfactory rest often accompanied by negative effects such as torticollis or other neuralgic aches.
Grâce au dispositif selon l' invention, un repos réparateur est obtenu en permettant une position anatomique de la tête, évitant toute pesanteur et tout mouvement de celle-ci pendant le sommeil d'une personne en posture assise.  With the device according to the invention, a restful rest is obtained by allowing an anatomical position of the head, avoiding gravity and any movement thereof during sleep of a person in sitting posture.
En vue de la réalisation de ce but, le dispositif selon l ' invention est essentiellement pourvu d ' un masque obturateur de lumière positionné sur la tête d' une personne, à hauteur du front, et de lanières réglables en longueur reliées au masque obturateur d'une part et passant autour du repose-tête d' un siège ou d' un fauteuil d' autre part.  With a view to achieving this object, the device according to the invention is essentially provided with a light shutter mask positioned on the head of a person, at the level of the forehead, and lengthwise adjustable strips connected to the shutter mask. one hand and passing around the headrest of a seat or a chair on the other hand.
La tête de la personne est ainsi maintenue dans une position anatomique lorsqu' il se trouve dans une posture assise pendant que le masque obturateur de lumière obscurcit la vue. Pour compléter l' isolement de la personne lors du sommeil, des bouchons auditifs peuvent être prévus pour obturer les oreilles afin de compléter l' isolement de la personne lors du sommeil . D ' autres avantages et particularités de l' invention ressortiront de la description ci-après à l ' aide d' un exemple de réalisation auquel diverses modifications peuvent être apportées sans pour autant sortir du cadre de la présente invention. L ' exemple de réalisation est illustré à l ' aide des dessins annexés dans lesquels : la figure 1 : est une vue de face du dispositif obj et de l' invention ;  The person's head is thus held in an anatomical position when he is in a sitting posture while the light-blocking mask obscures the view. To complete the isolation of the person during sleep, earplugs can be provided to close the ears to complete the isolation of the person during sleep. Other advantages and features of the invention will emerge from the following description with the aid of an exemplary embodiment to which various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. The exemplary embodiment is illustrated with the aid of the accompanying drawings, in which: FIG. 1 is a front view of the device obj and of the invention;
la figure 2 : est une vue latérale du dispositif obj.et de l' invention appliqué à la tête d' une personne positionnée contre un appui-tête d' un siège; la figure 3 : est une vue arrière du dispositif objet de l'invention. Figure 2 is a side view of the device obj.et of the invention applied to the head of a person positioned against a headrest of a seat; Figure 3 is a rear view of the device of the invention.
Comme montré à la figure.1, le dispositif, conforme à l'invention, comprend un masque 1 destiné à occulter la lumière ambiante des yeux de la personne. Le masque 1 est muni, de façon habituelle, d'au moins une lanière 2, généralement souple et élastique, permettant de positionner le masque 1 en face des yeux sur la partie frontale de la tête de la personne. As shown in the figure . 1, the device according to the invention comprises a mask 1 for obscuring the ambient light of the person's eyes. The mask 1 is provided, in the usual way, at least one strap 2, generally flexible and elastic, for positioning the mask 1 in front of the eyes on the front part of the person's head.
Conformément à l'invention, le masque 1 est également muni d'au moins une lanière 3, 4 reliée aux extrémités latérales 10, 11 du masque 1. La lanière 3 est destinée à être positionnée autour du repose-tête d'un fauteuil ou d'un siège de transport et est According to the invention, the mask 1 is also provided with at least one strap 3, 4 connected to the lateral ends 10, 11 of the mask 1. The strap 3 is intended to be positioned around the headrest of a chair or of a transport seat and is
éventuellement reliée à une lanière 4, fixée à l'extrémité 11 du. masque 1, à l'aide d'un élément de serrage 5 permettant d'ajuster la longueur de la lanière 3 en fonction de la dimension du repose-tête en question. Dans une forme de réalisation variante, la lanière 3 pourrait être reliée directement, de façon réglable, à l'extrémité 11 du masque 1. possibly connected to a strap 4, attached to the end 11 of the. mask 1, using a clamping member 5 to adjust the length of the strap 3 according to the size of the headrest in question. In a variant embodiment, the strap 3 could be connected directly, in an adjustable manner, to the end 11 of the mask 1.
L'élément de serrage 5 fera dès lors parti de l'extrémité 11 du masque. The clamping element 5 will therefore start from the end 11 of the mask.
La figure 2 montre la tête 9, d'une personne en posture assise, maintenue contre le repose-tête 8 d'un fauteuil ou d'un siège 7. Le masque 1 est positionné sur la partie frontale de la tête 9 à la hauteur des yeux et est maintenu sur la tête 9 à l'aide de la lanière 2. FIG. 2 shows the head 9 of a person in a sitting posture held against the headrest 8 of a chair or a seat 7. The mask 1 is positioned on the front part of the head 9 at the height eyes and is held on the head 9 using the strap 2.
Conformément à l'invention, le masque 1 est également relié autour du repose-tête 8 du fauteuil ou du siège 7 à l'aide de la lanière 3 qui est fixée de façon réglable à la lanière 4 grâce à According to the invention, the mask 1 is also connected around the headrest 8 of the chair or seat 7 by means of the strap 3 which is adjustably fixed to the strap 4 by means of
l'élément de serrage 5 permettant d'ajuster le maintien de la tête 9 de la personne par rapport au repose-tête 8 du fauteuil ou du siège 7. the clamping member 5 for adjusting the holding of the head 9 of the person relative to the headrest 8 of the chair or seat 7.
Dans une variante de réalisation de l'invention, la lanière 2 pourrait être supprimée, tout en gardant au moins une lanière 3, 4 pour le maintien du masque 1 sur la tête 9. La figure 3 montre l ' arrière du siège 7 et du repose-tête 8 sur lequel la tête 9 de la personne est maintenue à l' aide des lanières 3 , 4. Le dispositif de l ' invention est alors- en place et la tête 9 maintenue en position anatomiq ue en appui contre le repose-tête 8 du fauteuil ou du siège 7. In an alternative embodiment of the invention, the strap 2 could be removed, while keeping at least one strap 3, 4 for holding the mask 1 on the head 9. FIG. 3 shows the back of the seat 7 and the headrest 8 on which the head 9 of the person is held using the straps 3, 4. The device of the invention is then in place and the head 9 held in anatomical position resting against the headrest 8 of the chair or seat 7.
Dans une forme variante de l ' invention, le masque 1 pourrait être maintenu, sur la face frontal de la tête 9, uniquement à l' aide d' au moins la lanière 3 , 4 passant autour du repose-tête 8. In a variant form of the invention, the mask 1 could be maintained on the front face of the head 9 only by means of at least the strap 3, 4 passing around the headrest 8.
Les lanières 3 , 4 sont de préférence en matière souple et élastique et peuvent être reliées au masque 1 par tout moyen The strips 3, 4 are preferably of flexible and elastic material and can be connected to the mask 1 by any means
approprié . Ainsi, elles peuvent être cousues ou collées directement sur les extrémités 10, 1 1 du masque 1 ou reliées par un moyen de liaison amovible telle que crochets ou autres (telle qu' une fermeture Velcro) . appropriate. Thus, they can be sewn or glued directly on the ends 10, 1 1 of the mask 1 or connected by a removable connection means such as hooks or the like (such as a Velcro closure).
Comme élément de serrage 5 , tous moyens conventionnels et disponibles sur le marché peuvent être utilisés pour autant qu' ils soient adaptés aux dimensions et propriétés matérielles des lanières 3 et 4. As clamping element 5, all conventional means and available on the market can be used as long as they are adapted to the dimensions and material properties of the straps 3 and 4.
Le masque de sommeil 1 occultant la lumière environnante peut être fabriqué en matériaux de préférence naturels (écologiques), allergènes, synthétiques ou autres. The sleeping mask 1 obscuring the surrounding light can be made of preferably natural (ecological), allergenic, synthetic or other materials.
On peut donc comprendre que, grâce au dispositif de maintien de la tête d' une personne dans l 'axe de la colonne vertébrale, celle.-ci reste dans une position anatomique idéale pour obtenir un confort de repos complet et réparateur. Cette position anatomique évite à l ' organisme de subir les séquelles qu' entraînent habituellement les voyages de longue durée lorsqu' on s ' endort en posture assise . It can thus be understood that, thanks to the device for maintaining the head of a person in the axis of the spine, the latter remains in an ideal anatomical position to obtain a complete and restful comfort of rest. This anatomical position prevents the body from suffering the after - effects usually caused by long trips when one falls asleep in a sitting posture.
En effet, le dispositif, selon l ' invention, permet d' éviter des suites pathologiques liées à un état de fatigue général pouvant éventuellement amener à une consultation médicale (migraines, torticolis, sciatiques, névralgies cervico-brachiales, lumbagos, engourdissements, courbatures, ankyloses, etc.). In fact, the device according to the invention makes it possible to avoid pathological consequences related to a state of general fatigue that may eventually lead to a medical consultation (migraines, torticollis, sciatica, cervico-brachial neuralgia, lumbago, numbness, aches, ankylosis, etc.).
Le dispositif propose donc un masque de sommeil pour personnes, permettant de dormir en posture assise de manière prophylactique et réparatrice. Ceci est obtenu grâce au fait que la tête 9, équipée de son masque 1 , est maintenue en position anatomique, tout en isolant ou protégeant les yeux des nuisances lumineuses ce qui permet à la personne de s ' endormir commodément en posture assise dans un fauteuil ou dans un siège de moyen de transport. The device therefore offers a sleep mask for people, allowing to sleep in a sitting posture in a prophylactic and restorative way. This is achieved by virtue of the fact that the head 9, equipped with its mask 1, is held in an anatomical position, while isolating or protecting the eyes from light pollution, which allows the person to fall asleep comfortably in a sitting position in a chair or in a seat of means of transport.
Comme déj à mentionné au début de la description, des bouchons d' oreilles peuvent encore avantageusement compléter l ' état d' isolation du voyageur contre les nuisances sonores . As already mentioned at the beginning of the description, ear plugs can still advantageously complete the state of isolation of the traveler against noise.
Bien sûr, d'autres formes de réalisations et Of course, other forms of achievement and
perfectionnements au dispositif restent possibles sans pour autant sortir du cadre de la présente invention. Improvements to the device remain possible without departing from the scope of the present invention.
