Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Liegeflächen-Fangelement für Aufwassermassagegeräte.The invention relates to a bed surface catch element for water massagers.

Aufwassermassagegeräte haben eine Wanne, die oben durch eine flexible, eine Liegefläche für den Patienten bildende Abdeckung in Gestalt über die Wanne gespannten Folie oder dgl. abgedeckt ist, und im Inneren der Wanne befindet sich mindestens ein Düsenmechanismus mit mindestens einer aus einer Pumpe gespeisten Düse, von der aus ein Massagewasserstrahl zur trockenen Wasserstrahlmassage gegen die Unterseite der Liegefläche gerichtet werden kann.Water massagers have a tub, which is covered at the top by a flexible cover that forms a bed surface for the patient in the form of a film or the like stretched over the tub, and inside the tub there is at least one nozzle mechanism with at least one nozzle fed from a pump, from which a massage water jet for dry water jet massage can be directed against the underside of the lying surface.

Die Liegefläche muß notwendigerweise durch eine relativ dünne flexible und auch elastische Folie gebildet sein, damit die Wirkung des Massagestrahls auf den Körper des auf der Liegefläche liegenden Patienten möglichst ungedämpft übertragen werden kann. Die Flexibilität der die Liegefläche bildenden Folie ist auch deshalb von erheblicher Bedeutung, damit sich diese Folie wie eine zweite Haut an die Oberflächenkonturen des Körpers des Patienten anschmiegen kann, damit keine Hohlräume zwischen der Liegeflächenfolie und der Körperoberfläche des Patienten entstehen, welche die Übertragung der Massagewirkung des Massagewasserstrahls auf den Patientenkörper behindern würden.The lying surface must necessarily be formed by a relatively thin flexible and also elastic film so that the effect of the massage jet on the body of the patient lying on the lying surface can be transmitted as undamped as possible. The flexibility of the film forming the lying surface is also of considerable importance, so that this film can nestle like a second skin against the surface contours of the patient's body, so that no voids arise between the lying surface film and the patient's body surface, which transmit the massage effect of the massage water jet would hinder the patient's body.

Diese notwendige Flexibilität und Elastizität der Liegeflächenfolie hat natürlich unvermeidlich auch den Nachteil, dass sie bei punktförmiger Belastung insbesondere im Mittenbereich der Wanne sich ziemlich tief in das Wanneninnere hineindrücken läßt. Dies ist der Fall, wenn ein Patient beim Besteigen der Liegefläche sich auf diese setzt oder beim Verlassen der Liegefläche sich aufsetzt, wobei das Gesäß des Patienten dann sich etwa im Be reich der Wannenmitte befindet. Dann wird die Liegeflächenfolie lokal ziemlich tief in die Wanne hineingedrückt.This necessary flexibility and elasticity of the lying surface film naturally also has the disadvantage that it can be pressed quite deeply into the interior of the tub when there is a point load, particularly in the central area of the tub. This is the case if a patient sits on it when climbing onto the lying surface or sits up when leaving the lying surface, the patient's buttocks then being approximately in the bed in the middle of the tub. Then the lying surface film is pressed locally quite deep into the tub.

Dadurch besteht die Gefahr, dass der im Inneren befindliche Düsenmechanismus belastet und beschädigt werden kann.As a result, there is a risk that the nozzle mechanism inside can be stressed and damaged.

Bei den üblichen Aufwassermassagegeräten besteht der Düsenmechanismus aus einem Düsenwagenmechanismus, der mindestens einen üblicherweise in Längsrichtung der Wanne im Wanneninneren mittels eines Antriebs beweglichen Düsenschlitten mit mindestens einer Düse aufweist. Diese Düse ist oft wiederum beweglich auf dem Düsenschlitten angeordnet, um eine seitwärtige Auslenkung oder ein seitwärtiges Schwenken der Düse zu ermöglichen, damit der Massagewasserstrahl nicht nur entlang der Wanne, sondern auch in Querrichtung bewegt werden kann. Gerade bei solchen Düsenwagenmechanismen mit beweglichem Düsenschlitten besteht die Gefahr, dass ein Patient sich auf der Liegefläche schon aufsetzt, um diese zu verlassen, während die Behandlung noch nicht vollständig abgeschlossen ist und dann gerade der bewegte Düsenschlitten sich unterhalb des vom Gesäß des Patienten niedergedrückten Bereichs befindet. Dann besteht die erhebliche Gefahr, dass der Düsenwagenmechanismus durch die nun auf ihn wirkende Belastung durch den Patienten in seiner Bewegung blockiert oder gehindert wird, was zur Beschädigung des Antriebs führen kann, und es besteht auch die Gefahr erheblicher Beschädigung der Düsenträgermechanik am Düsenschlitten und des Düsenschlittens selbst. Dann notwendige Reparaturen sind oftmals sehr aufwendig und entsprechend teuer.In the usual water massage devices, the nozzle mechanism consists of a nozzle carriage mechanism which has at least one nozzle carriage with at least one nozzle, which is usually movable in the longitudinal direction of the tub inside the tub by means of a drive. This nozzle is often in turn movably arranged on the nozzle carriage in order to allow the nozzle to be deflected sideways or pivoted sideways so that the massage water jet can be moved not only along the tub but also in the transverse direction. Especially with such nozzle carriage mechanisms with a movable nozzle slide, there is a risk that a patient will already sit on the lying surface in order to leave it while the treatment is not yet completed and then the moving nozzle slide is located below the area depressed by the patient's buttocks , There is then a considerable risk that the movement of the nozzle carriage mechanism, which is now acting on the patient, will block or hinder its movement, which can lead to damage to the drive, and there is also the risk of considerable damage to the nozzle carrier mechanism on the nozzle carriage and the nozzle carriage then necessary repairs are often very complex and correspondingly expensive.

Aus den Druckschriften US 8 088 087 D1 , WO 95/28904 , und WO 90/15585 sind jeweils Aufwassermassagegeräte nach dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 bekannt. Bei diesen bekannten Aufwassermassagegeräten wird die Liegefläche für den Patienten aus einer Kombination aus einer wasserdichten Folie und einem unmittelbar darunter angeordneten Tragnetz gebildet.From the pamphlets US 8 088 087 D1 . WO 95/28904 , and WO 90/15585 In each case, water massagers according to the preamble of claim 1 are known. In these known water massage devices, the lying surface for the patient is formed from a combination of a waterproof film and a support net arranged directly underneath.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Maßnahme zu finden, um diese Gefahr der Beschädigung des Düsenmechanismus bei einem Aufwassermassagegerät zu vermeiden.The object of the invention is to find a measure to avoid this risk of damage to the nozzle mechanism in a water massager.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung durch die im Anspruch 1 angeordnete Anordnung gelöst.This object is achieved according to the invention by the arrangement arranged in claim 1.

Vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen und Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.Advantageous embodiments and refinements of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims.

Erfindungsgemäß ist in die Wanne ein Liegeflächen-Fangelement eingebaut, das sich in einem solchen Abstand unterhalb der unbelasteten Liegefläche befindet, dass bei Belastung der Liegefläche mit einem darauf liegenden Patienten die dadurch örtlich etwas abgesenkte Liegefläche das Fangelement nicht berührt, und wobei das Fangelement so ausgebildet ist, dass es den Massagewasserstrahl zumindest nicht wesentlich behindert.According to the invention, a bed surface catch element is installed in the tub, which is located at a distance below the unloaded bed surface that is under load the lying surface with a patient lying thereon does not touch the lying surface, which is thereby somewhat lowered locally, the catching element, and wherein the catching element is designed in such a way that it at least does not substantially obstruct the massage water jet.

Zu diesem Zweck ist das Fangelement vorzugsweise gitterförmig oder netzförmig ausgebildet und kann flexibel, jedoch nicht dehnbar sein, damit es bei punktförmiger Belastung und Eindrückung der Liegeflächenfolie deren Absenkung in die Wanne hinein sicher begrenzt und ein darunter bewegter Düsenträgerschlitten oder generell ein darunter befindlicher Düsenmechnismus nicht beschädigt werden kann.For this purpose, the catch element is preferably lattice-shaped or net-shaped and can be flexible, but not stretchable, so that when the lying surface film is punctually loaded and pressed in, it reliably limits its lowering into the tub and does not damage a nozzle carrier slide moved underneath or generally a nozzle mechanism located underneath can be.

Die Erfindung hat auch Bedeutung, wenn, abweichend von der üblichen Praxis von Düsenmechanismen in Gestalt eines Düsenwagenmechanismus mit mindestens einem bewegten Düsenschlitten ein Düsenmechanismus mit stationär in der Wanne angeordneten Düsen vorgesehen wird, die dann natürlich, um den Massagewasserstrahl bewegen zu können, schwenkbar angeordnet und auch mit einem entsprechenden Schwenkantrieb ausgebildet sein werden und daher ebenfalls empfindlich sind.The invention is also important if, in contrast to the usual practice of nozzle mechanisms in the form of a nozzle carriage mechanism with at least one moving nozzle carriage, a nozzle mechanism with nozzles arranged in a stationary manner in the tub is provided, which then of course is arranged pivotably and in order to be able to move the massage water jet will also be designed with a corresponding swivel drive and are therefore also sensitive.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der anliegenden Zeichnung schematisch dargestellt.An embodiment of the invention is shown schematically in the accompanying drawing.

Die Zeichnung zeigt im schematischen Längsschnitt ein Aufwassermassagegerät mit einem Liegeflächen-Fangelement nach der Erfindung.The drawing shows a schematic longitudinal section of a water massage device with a mattress support element according to the invention.

Die Zeichnung zeigt im Längsschnitt die Wanne 1 eines Aufwassermassagegeräts mit Wannenboden 2 und oben auskragenden Seitenwänden 3.The drawing shows a longitudinal section of the tub 1 of an on-water massage device with a tub bottom 2 and side walls 3 projecting above.

Die Wanne ist oben durch eine darüber gespannte elastische Liegeflächenfolie 4 abgedeckt. Im Bereich des Wannenbodens 2 erkennt man einen schematisch angedeuteten Düsenschlittenmechanismus mit einer Führungsschiene 5 und einem Düsenträgerschlitten 6.The tub is covered at the top by an elastic lying surface film 4 stretched over it. A schematically indicated nozzle slide mechanism with a guide rail 5 and a nozzle carrier slide 6 can be seen in the area of the tub base 2.

Wie man weiter erkennt, verläuft unterhalb der Liegeflächenfolie 4 ein Liegeflächen-Fangelement 7, das, wie auch die Liegeflächenfolie 4, im Bereich der Wannenränder befestigt ist.As can also be seen, a lying surface catch element 7 runs beneath the lying surface film 4 and, like the lying surface film 4, is fastened in the region of the tub edges.

Das Fangelement 7 kann als formstabiles oder flexibles, im wesentlichen aber nicht dehnbares Gitter oder als im wesentlichen nicht dehnbares Netz aus textilem oder anderem geeignetem Material ausgebildet sein, dessen Gitterdrähte oder Netzfäden möglichst dünn und dessen Gitter- oder Netzmaschen möglichst groß sind, um den Massagewasserstrahl so wenig wie möglich zu behindern, aber um trotzdem die notwendige Festigkeit zu gewährleisten, um das Gewicht einer sich aufsetzenden und die Liegeflächenfolie 4 eindrückenden Person sicher aufnehmen zu können.The catch element 7 can be designed as a dimensionally stable or flexible, but essentially non-stretchable grid or as a substantially non-stretchable network made of textile or other suitable material, the grid wires or network threads of which are as thin as possible and whose grid or network meshes are as large as possible around the massage water jet to hinder as little as possible, but in order to nevertheless ensure the necessary strength to be able to safely absorb the weight of a person sitting up and pressing the lying surface film 4.

Wie man in der Zeichnung leicht erkennt, ist das Fangelement 7 so angeordnet, dass es mit deutlichem Abstand unterhalb der Liegeflächenfolie verläuft, so dass auch bei Belastung der Liegeflächenfolie durch einen darauf liegenden Patienten und die dadurch bedingte Absenkung der Liegeflächenfolie diese noch einen ausreichenden Abstand vom Fangelement 7 hat, damit, auch wenn der Patient sich auf der Liegeflächenfolie etwas bewegt, keine Berührung der Liegeflächenfolie mit dem Fangelement 7 stattfindet. Gleichzeitig befindet sich das Fangelement in einer ausreichenden Höhe über dem Wannenboden, damit die Bewegung des sich darunter befindlichen Düsenträgerschlittens nicht behindert wird.As can easily be seen in the drawing, the catch element 7 is arranged in such a way that it runs at a clear distance below the lying surface film, so that even when the lying surface film is loaded by a patient lying thereon and the resulting lowering of the lying surface film, the latter still remains a sufficient distance from the Catch element 7 has, so that even if the patient moves a little on the lying surface film, the lying surface film does not come into contact with the catching element 7. At the same time, the catch element is at a sufficient height above the trough base so that the movement of the nozzle carrier slide underneath is not hindered.
