Abstract

The back massager has an outer frame resembling a camp bed which rests on short legs and has two rigid elements (2a,2b) made of e.g sheet metal, fixed across it. Footrests (9a,9b) are mounted at one end of the frame and curved handles (7a,7b) are mounted on opposite sides. The massaging elements which are mounted transversely of the frame are in the form of rollers mounted between the ends of the support plates. The ends of the shafts of the rollers are mounted on springs housed in the side members (1a,1b) of the frame. The surfaces of the rollers which contact the patient's back are covered with a spongy elastomeric material.

Description

La presente invention concerne un appareil pour réaliser des massages dorsaux de façon autonome, c'est-à-dire sans que le oatient ait recours à un personnel infirmier, à un kinésithérepeu- te ou analogue pour l'exécution de massages dorsaux sur lui-même. The present invention relates to an apparatus for performing back massages independently, that is to say without the patient having recourse to a nursing staff, to a physiotherapist or the like for performing back massages on him- even.

Osait que la plupart des douleurs dorso-lombaires sont dues à des surcharges repétées des disques intervertebraux de la partie inférieure de la colonne vertébrale qui ne jouent plus, à la longue, leur rôle d'amortisseurs. Les surcharges au niveau de ces disques sont dues à l'atrophie et/ou à l'insuffisance des muscles du tronc et au fait que les muscles primitivement situes autour du thorax et permettant les ondulations laterale de toute la colonne vertebrale se sont fusionnes à la partie nostérieure basse du tronc pour assurer la station debout, cette situation résultant des contraintes de la vie moderne. Dare that most back pain is due to repeated overloads of the intervertebral discs of the lower spine which do not play, in the long run, their role as shock absorbers. The overloads in these discs are due to atrophy and / or insufficiency of the trunk muscles and to the fact that the muscles originally located around the thorax and allowing the lateral undulations of the entire spine have merged with the lower nostal part of the trunk to ensure standing, this situation resulting from the constraints of modern life.

L'appareil de massage dorsale de l'invention permet de remédier aux inconvenients précités en redonnant de la souplesse à la colonne vertébrale et en renforçant la musculature du tronc, en particulier la musculature dorso-lombaire. The back massage device of the invention makes it possible to remedy the aforementioned drawbacks by restoring flexibility to the spine and by strengthening the musculature of the trunk, in particular the dorso-lumbar musculature.

De plus, il permet la re-education de la musculature des membres inférieurs et de la musculature de la oaroi abdominale. In addition, it allows the re-education of the musculature of the lower limbs and the musculature of the abdominal oaroi.

Il peut par ailleurs être utilisé à domicile, par le patient seul. Il permet de lutter contre le vieillissement oréma ture des articulations et procure bien-être et confort, tout en facilitant le sommeil de l'utilisateur. It can also be used at home, by the patient alone. It helps fight against aging of the joints and provides well-being and comfort, while facilitating the sleep of the user.

L'utilisation de cet appareil permet donc soit de remplacer soit de completer ou prolonger les traitements preventifs ou thérapeutiques usuels de stimulation des muscles dorso-lombaires, tels que la gymnastique respiratoire, la natation en crawl et les massages effectues par le kinésitherapeute. The use of this device therefore makes it possible either to replace or to complete or extend the usual preventive or therapeutic treatments for stimulating the dorso-lumbar muscles, such as respiratory gymnastics, swimming in crawl and massages carried out by the physiotherapist.

L'appareil de massage dorsal selon l'invention est caractérise en ce qu'il comprend
- une surface de repos rigide ou moyennement souple, integrée
à un support formant brancard, lit de camp ou analogue, sur
laquelle surface de repos l'utilisateur est allongé sur le
dos pour pratiquer les massages
- sensiblement à mi-longueur de cette surface de repos un ou
de préférence plusieurs rouleaux transversaux susceptibles
de tourner autour de leur axe, la surface externe de ces
rouleaux, destinée à être en contact avec le dos du patient,
étant de position variable par utilisation d'une couche de
matériau élastiquement compressible et/ou par mise en oeuvre
de moyens de support élastique des rouleaux
- des moyens de butee pour les pieds de l'utilisateur, ces
moyens étant fixes à 11 une des extrémites de ladite surface
de repos ; et
- des poignées sur les côtés de ladite surface de repos, entre
les moyens de butée~et les rouleaux, ces poignees étant des
tinees à être tenues par l'utilisateur qui doit exercer des
tractions sur celles-ci.
The back massage device according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises
- a rigid or moderately flexible, integrated resting surface
to a support forming a stretcher, camp bed or the like, on
which resting surface the user is lying on the
back to practice massages
- substantially mid-length of this resting surface one or
preferably several transverse rollers likely
to rotate around their axis, the outer surface of these
rollers, intended to be in contact with the patient's back,
being of variable position by using a layer of
elastically compressible material and / or by implementation
elastic support means for the rollers
- stop means for the feet of the user, these
means being fixed at 11 one of the extremities of said surface
rest ; and
- handles on the sides of said rest surface, between
the stop means ~ and the rollers, these handles being
to be held by the user who must exercise
pull-ups on them.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, les moyens de butée précités comprennent deux butoirs montés élastiquement par rapport au support de la surface de repos. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the abovementioned abutment means comprise two buffers elastically mounted relative to the support of the rest surface.

Conformément à une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les rouleaux précités comprennent avantageusement au moins un rouleau à surface externe cylindrique et au moins un rouleau à surface externe munie d'un ou plusieurs renflements ou bombements annulaires. According to another characteristic of the invention, the aforementioned rollers advantageously comprise at least one roller with a cylindrical external surface and at least one roller with an external surface provided with one or more annular bulges or bulges.

Bien entendu, l'appareil de massage selon l'invention peut être utilisé soit à titre préventif, soit à titre therapeutique. Of course, the massage device according to the invention can be used either as a preventive or as a therapeutic.

D'autres buts, objets, caractéristiques ou avantages de l'invention apparattront au cours de la description ci-après d'un mode de realisation, donné, à titre non limitatif, pour illustrer ladite invention en référence aux dessins annexes dans lesquels

Other objects, objects, characteristics or advantages of the invention will appear during the description below of an embodiment, given, without limitation, to illustrate said invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in which
- Figure 1 shows a perspective view of an apparatus
back massage in accordance with the preferred embodiment
of invention
- Figure 2 shows a cross-sectional view of
elastic support means which can be used for
one of the rollers of this device; and
- Figure 3 shows a longitudinal sectional view
axial of one of the oied stops of said apo device.

On voit sur la figure 1 que l'appareil de massage dorgal représenté comprend un support métallique 1, par exemple en acier inoxydable > muni de deux éléments rigides 2a, 2b, par exemple en tôle métallique recouverte de tissu, formant la sur face de repos 2, le tout constituant une sorte de lit de camp. La partie centrale de la surface de repos 2 comprend une zone évidée 3 dans laquelle sont montés transversalement trois rouleaux 4, 5 et 6 à axes horizontaux et paralleles,ces rouleaux étant en saillie sur la surface de repos 2 en l'absence d'efforts excercés sur eux. We see in Figure 1 that the dorgal massage device shown comprises a metal support 1, for example stainless steel> provided with two rigid elements 2a, 2b, for example in sheet metal covered with fabric, forming the on the rest face 2, the whole constituting a kind of camp bed. The central part of the rest surface 2 comprises a recessed area 3 in which are mounted transversely three rollers 4, 5 and 6 with horizontal and parallel axes, these rollers projecting from the rest surface 2 in the absence of efforts exerted on them.

Ces rouleaux sont montés libres en rotation et ils sont supportés, à leurs extrémités, oar les montants longitudinaux la et lb de l'armature 1. Les rouleaux 4 et 5 sont cylindriques, tandis que le rouleau 6, quoique de forme générale cylindrique, présente, dans sa partie centrale, une zone annulaire renflée ou bornbée 6a ; selon un mode de realisati3n,les axes de ces rouleaux sont montés à position fixe par rapport à l'armature 1 et sont constitués par une masse de substance compressible élastique, par exemple en élastomère naturel ou synthétique, compacte ou cellulaire, notamment en caoutchouc, entourant lesdits axes ; selon un autre mode de réali- sation la couche externe ou surface externe desdits rouleaux est indéformable (par exemple rouleau en matière plastique ou en bois éventuellement revêtu de cuir ou analogue) et ces rouleaux sont susceptibles de tourner par rapport à leurs axes d'extrémités montés élastiquement par rapport à l'armature I (voir plus loin description de la figure 2).These rollers are mounted free in rotation and they are supported, at their ends, by the longitudinal uprights la and lb of the frame 1. The rollers 4 and 5 are cylindrical, while the roller 6, although generally cylindrical in shape, has , in its central part, a bulged or bounded annular zone 6a; according to one embodiment, the axes of these rollers are mounted in a fixed position relative to the frame 1 and are formed by a mass of elastic compressible substance, for example made of natural or synthetic elastomer, compact or cellular, in particular rubber, surrounding said axes; according to another embodiment, the external layer or external surface of said rollers is non-deformable (for example plastic or wooden roller possibly covered with leather or the like) and these rollers are capable of rotating relative to their end axes resiliently mounted relative to the frame I (see description of Figure 2 below).

L'appareil de la figure 1 comporte aussi deux poignées 7a et 7b fixées respectivement sur les montants longitudinaux la et lb de l'armature 1, un butoir ou arrêtoir central fixe 8 et deux butoirs latéraux 9a et 9b montés élastiquement par rapport à l'armature ; l'arrêtoir 8 et les supports des butoirs 9a et 9b sont fixés au montant transversal lc de l'armature 1 dont les pieds sont désignés par les nombres de référence ld, le et lf. The apparatus of FIG. 1 also comprises two handles 7a and 7b fixed respectively on the longitudinal uprights la and lb of the frame 1, a fixed central stop or stop 8 and two lateral stops 9a and 9b mounted resiliently relative to the frame; the stopper 8 and the supports of the stops 9a and 9b are fixed to the transverse upright lc of the frame 1, the feet of which are designated by the reference numbers ld, le and lf.

On voit sur la partie gauche de la figure 2 que le rouleau 5 est monté élastiquement à ses deux extrémités ; deux modes de montage différents ont été choisis à dessein pour mieux illustrer l'invention ; le rouleau 5 est monté libre en rotation autour de son axe ; l'extrémité de droite 5a de cet axe est fixée à un disque 10 susceptible de coulisser verticalement dans un boîtier cylindrique 11 soudé au montant longitudinal la et contenant un ressort hélicoSdal lla ; des rainures latérales verticales dans le bottier 11 et dans le flan du montant la permettent le passage de l'extrémité d'axe 5a ; l'extrémité de gauche 5b de l'a xe passe entre deux pattes de guidage fixées au montant longitudinal lb (une seule patte 12 est visible sur la figure) et est reliée rigidement à une plaquette de support 18, un ressort helicot- dal 18' travaillant à l'extension t'tar* fixe à l'une de ses extrémités à ladite plaquette et, à l'autre de ses extrémités, au fond du montant lb. We see on the left side of Figure 2 that the roller 5 is resiliently mounted at its two ends; two different mounting methods have been purposely chosen to better illustrate the invention; the roller 5 is mounted to rotate freely about its axis; the right end 5a of this axis is fixed to a disc 10 capable of sliding vertically in a cylindrical housing 11 welded to the longitudinal upright la and containing a helicoSdal spring lla; vertical lateral grooves in the housing 11 and in the blank of the upright allow the passage of the axis end 5a; the left end 5b of the axis passes between two guide tabs fixed to the longitudinal post lb (a single tab 12 is visible in the figure) and is rigidly connected to a support plate 18, a helicoidal spring 18 'working at the extension t'tar * fixed at one of its ends to said plate and, at the other of its ends, at the bottom of the upright lb.

On voit sur la figure 3, le support 13 du butoir 9b ; ce support est constitué par un tube 13a soudé latéralement au montant transversal lo de l'armature 1 et fermé à l'une de ses extrernités par un capuchon vissé 13b ; le butoir 9b est fixé à un élément cylindrique 14 monté coulissant dans le tube 13a et séparant les ressorts hélicoidaux 15a et 15b- ; le passage de la patte 16 du butoir 9b et le guidage de ce butoir sont obtenus au moyen de la feinte 17. We see in Figure 3, the support 13 of the stopper 9b; this support consists of a tube 13a welded laterally to the transverse upright of the frame 1 and closed at one of its ends by a screwed cap 13b; the stopper 9b is fixed to a cylindrical element 14 slidably mounted in the tube 13a and separating the helical springs 15a and 15b-; the passage of the tab 16 of the stopper 9b and the guidance of this stopper are obtained by means of the feint 17.

L'appareil des figures 1 à 3 s'utilise de la manière suivante : l'utilisateur s'allonge sur la surface de repos 2, saisit les poignées 7a et 7b et place ses pieds contre l'arrêtoir central 8 ou contre les butoirs latéraux 9a et 9b ; il fait des tractions sur les poignées, ce qui provoque des déplacement longitudinaux alternatifs de son dos au contact des rouleaux 4, 5 et 6 qui massent son dos, en faisant ainsi travailler sa musculature dorsolombaire. Par ailleurs, les jambes et les pieds travaillent en raison de la présence des butoirs et/ou arrêtoir, ce qui favoriss le travail des articulations. The apparatus of FIGS. 1 to 3 is used in the following manner: the user lies down on the rest surface 2, grasps the handles 7a and 7b and places his feet against the central retainer 8 or against the lateral buffers 9a and 9b; he pulls on the handles, which causes alternative longitudinal displacement of his back in contact with the rollers 4, 5 and 6 which massage his back, thus making his back muscles work. In addition, the legs and feet work due to the presence of bumpers and / or retainers, which favors the work of the joints.

Bien entendu, les exemoles précités n'ont été donnés qu'à titre illustratif et non limitatif et tous autres modes de réalisation, variantes ou moyens équivalents, à la portée de l'homme de l'art, font également partie de la présente invention.  Of course, the aforementioned examples have been given for illustration only and not limitative and all other embodiments, variants or equivalent means, within the reach of ordinary skill in the art, are also part of the present invention. .
