Abstract

Treatment for nails with ingrown morphology with the purpose of correcting them and stopping the conflicting pains which result therefrom. It consists of a special type of perforated elastic, which is fixed under tension from one plastic or metal bar to another on the plate of a toenail or fingernail. The self-adjustable elastic orthonyxis action consists in guiding the nail during its growth by exerting a moderate tension thus preserving the desired shape, by bending in a certain direction, for a sufficiently long period of time.

Description

La présente invention concerne un appareillage pour orthonyxie.L'action de l'orthonyxie,consiste à guider l'ongle pendant sa croissance en exerçant une tension modérée conservant ainsi la forme souhaitée,en infléchjo- sant dans une certaine direction, durant une période suffisamment longue.The present invention relates to an apparatus for orthonyxia. The action of orthonyxia, consists in guiding the nail during its growth by exerting a moderate tension thus preserving the desired shape, by bending in a certain direction, for a sufficiently long period long.

Thérapeutique qui s'adresse aux ongles de morphologie incarnée dans le but de les corriger et de faire cesser les douleurs conflictuelles qui en résultent.Therapeutic for nails with an embodied morphology with the aim of correcting them and putting an end to the resulting conflicting pains.

La plupart des techniques d'orthonyxie utilisaient des agrafes métalliques;l'orthonyxie élastique autoréglable se différencie,â savoir qu'il ne s'agit plus là d'une agrafe métallique mais d'un élastique d un type spécial mis en tension sur le plateau de l'ongle. Most orthonyxia techniques used metal staples; self-adjusting elastic orthonyxia is different, namely that it is no longer a metal staple but a special type of elastic placed in tension on the nail tray.

Une. recherche de nouveauté relative à l'appareillage pour l'orthonyxie,effectuée par l'#RIST,Chambre Régionale de Commerce et d Industrie Midi-Pyrénées,a montré que l'ensemble des publications touchant des produits
procédés concernant les ongles,parfois éloignés du sujet laisse seul apparaitre une partie du sùjet dans un brevet allemand 3.233.419 déposé le 9 Septembre 82 et qui ne semble pas étendu à la France.A. Novelty research relating to equipment for orthonyxia, carried out by # RIST, Regional Chamber of Commerce and Industry Midi-Pyrénées, showed that all of the publications relating to products
processes relating to the nails, sometimes distant from the subject, alone reveal part of the subject in a German patent 3,233,419 filed on September 9, 82 and which does not seem to be extended to France.

En ce qui concerne le mode de fixation latéral de l'ongle 1'ARIST n'a pratiquement relevé que le brevet canadien (lui aussi non étendu à des pays européens)1.100.375 ayant pour priorité une demande U.S. qui reprend ce principe en utilisant une seule lamelle.Regarding the lateral fixing method of the nail, ARIST has practically noted only the Canadian patent (also not extended to European countries) 1,100,375 having as priority a US application which takes up this principle using a single coverslip.

Cette technique utilisant des pontets collés et une traction élastique, différencie des techniques antérieures.This technique using bonded bridges and elastic traction, differentiates from previous techniques.

Le type d'élastique particulier proposé dans le sujet de recherche n'a pas été rencontré pour l'application visée.The particular type of elastic proposed in the research subject was not encountered for the intended application.

Le système d'accrochage latéral de l'ongle,uniquement dans le cadre de la conception de la pièce d'accrochage de l'élastique, constitue la différence fondamentale avec les systèmes de redressement d'ongle assujetissant une languette s'accrochant dans les parties latérales de l'ongle. The lateral nail attachment system, only in the context of the design of the elastic attachment piece, constitutes the fundamental difference with the nail straightening systems subjecting a tongue catching in the parts. lateral of the nail.

L'élastique d'un type spécial,mis en tension sur le plateau de l'ongle(d'un bouton à un autre ou d'un crochet métallique à un autre)est retenu ou ancré soit à l'aide d'un pontet collé(crochet) en plastique ou au moyen de lamelles métalliques se moulant suivant la courbure du bord latéral de l'ongle, et comportant un crochet soudé sur cette plaque et permettant l'ancrage de l'élastique.The elastic of a special type, tensioned on the nail plate (from one button to another or from a metal hook to another) is retained or anchored either using a trigger guard glued (hook) in plastic or by means of metal strips molded according to the curvature of the lateral edge of the nail, and comprising a hook welded to this plate and allowing the anchoring of the elastic.

L'élastique devra être renouvelé obligatoirement en fonction de la croissance et de la correction de l'ongle. Il sera alors souhaitable de pouvoir le changer, le thérapeuthe ou le patient lui-même pourra sans peine effectuer ce remplacement.The elastic band must be renewed depending on the growth and correction of the nail. It will then be desirable to be able to change it, the therapist or the patient himself can easily make this replacement.

Ce système rationnel,économique,non traumatisant, rapide de pose peut s'adresser à tous patients présentant des troubles au niveau des ongles des pieds et des mains anihilant de ce fait un grand nombre d'interventions chirurgicales douloureuses et couteuses pouvant occasionner ainsi de substancielles économies dans les secteurs écönomiques(arrêts de travail) et sociaux(Sécurité Sociale)
Le dispositif est par suite constitué par un élastique plat perforé à égales distances le long de sa texture.La largeur et les trous de perforations de cet élastique peuvent être de différents modèles.This rational, economical, non-traumatic, rapid installation system can be addressed to all patients with disorders of the toenails and hands thereby annihilating a large number of painful and costly surgical procedures which can thus cause substantial savings in the economic (work stoppages) and social (Social Security) sectors
The device is therefore constituted by a flat elastic perforated at equal distances along its texture. The width and the perforation holes of this elastic can be of different models.

Celui-ci staccroche ou s'ancre soit sur des boutons spéciaux(pontets crochets)en plastique, soit sur un crochet soudé sur une lamelle métallique se moulant suivant la courbure latérale de l'ongle.This staccroche or is anchored either on special plastic buttons (hooks), or on a hook welded on a metal strip molded according to the lateral curvature of the nail.

On choisit un type d'élastique particulier permettant une traction variable.La largeur et les trous de perforations de cet élastique sont de différents modèles.Entre deux perforations la distance est d'environ trois millimètres. We choose a particular type of elastic allowing variable traction. The width and the perforation holes of this elastic are of different models. Between two perforations the distance is about three millimeters.

Selon un mode de réalisation,l'originalité du système réside dans l'ancrage sur des crochets plastiques collés sur la surface de l'ongle. According to one embodiment, the originality of the system lies in the anchoring on plastic hooks glued to the surface of the nail.

Selon une variante,le#système d'accrochage est un système d'accrochage latéral de l'ongle en métal,Ce système comportant un crochet métallique soudé sur une lamelle métallique elle-même.According to a variant, the # attachment system is a lateral attachment system for the metal nail. This system comprises a metal hook welded to a metal strip itself.

La longueur et la largeur de la lamelle métallique sont modulables par le thérapeuthe suivant la pathologie unguéale concernée,- ses dimensions initiales étant de dix à quinze millimètres de longueur et de deux à trois millimètres de largeur. The length and width of the metal strip are adjustable by the therapist according to the nail disease concerned, - its initial dimensions being ten to fifteen millimeters in length and two to three millimeters in width.
