Abstract
Description
BAIN DYNAMIQUE
La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif de bain hydrothérapique mouvant et modulé.DYNAMIC BATH
The present invention relates to a moving and modulated hydrotherapy bath device.
Il est destiné à augmenter l ' efficacité des traitements hydrothérapiques en faisant effectuer au patient une gymnastique passive active et activo-passive sous l1action de jets dirigés et modulés.It is intended to increase the effectiveness of hydrotherapeutic treatments by making the patient perform passive active and activo-passive gymnastics under the action of directed and modulated jets.
Les dispositifs réalisés à ce jour mettent à profit le pouvoir relaxant, tonifiant et curatif des bains, les résultats étant renforcés en jouant sur les variations thermiques, la projection de jets ou l'adjonction de gaz, sels, boues, etc.The devices produced to date take advantage of the relaxing, invigorating and curative power of baths, the results being reinforced by playing on thermal variations, the projection of jets or the addition of gases, salts, mud, etc.
Mais l'action des traitements hydrothérapiques courants est anarchique, superficielle et approximative.But the action of current hydrotherapy treatments is anarchic, superficial and approximate.
Le dispositif suivant la présente invention se propose de remédier à ces inconvénients. En effet, il permet de faire effectuer au patient une gymnastique passive,' active et activo-passive et une relaxation profonde par la transmission de mouvements précis, variés et modulables de reptation antéro postérieurs, latéraux, et combinés dans le but d'obtenir - une décoaptation des articulations vertébrales par mobilisation passive et douce assurant un assouplissement du rachis, - une relance de la circulation générale et capillaire permettant la restauration des échanges chimiques au niveau musculaire et intra-articulaire afin de freiner ou de provoquer la régression de toute pathologie non infectieuse de l'axe vertébral, - une activité musculaire induite, dosée et précise, - une relaxation psychique donnant accès à des niveaux supérieurs de conscience.The device according to the present invention proposes to remedy these drawbacks. Indeed, it allows the patient to perform passive, active and activo-passive gymnastics and deep relaxation by transmitting precise, varied and modular movements of anterior posterior, lateral, and combined crawling in order to obtain - a decoaptation of the vertebral joints by passive and gentle mobilization ensuring a softening of the spine, - a revival of the general and capillary circulation allowing the restoration of chemical exchanges at the muscular and intra-articular level in order to slow down or cause the regression of any pathology not infectious of the vertebral axis, - an induced, measured and precise muscular activity, - a psychic relaxation giving access to higher levels of consciousness.
I1 est constitué par la combinaison d'abord, d'une baignoire, ou d'un espace déterminé d'un bain de plus grande dimension, comportant un appui-tête et un appui-pieds réglables en hauteur maintenant le patient en état de flottaison, et équipé de têtes fixes, ou oscillantes grâce à un système à moteur, munies de buses de projection dirigées vers le corps ensuite, d'une pompe avec filtre débitant dans un distributeur alimentant individuelle ment les buses, et recyclant l'eau du bain, cette eau étant contrôlée en température et contenant des produits thérapeutiques solides, liquides ou gazeux, enfin, d'un moyen de programmation assurant la synchronisation de l'alimentation séquentielle des buses et de leurs mouvements oscillants. I1 is constituted by the combination first of all, of a bathtub, or of a determined space of a bath of larger dimension, comprising a headrest and a footrest adjustable in height keeping the patient in a floating state , and fitted with fixed or oscillating heads thanks to a motor system, fitted with projection nozzles directed towards the body thereafter, a pump with filter delivering into a distributor supplying the nozzles individually and recycling the bath water , this water being temperature controlled and containing solid, liquid or gaseous therapeutic products, finally, a programming means ensuring the synchronization of the sequential supply of the nozzles and their oscillating movements.
Sur les dessins annexés, donnés à titre d'exemple non limitatif d'une des formes de l'invention
Les figures 1, 2, 3 représentent schématiquement le dispositif avec buses oscillantes, vu en coupe longitudinale (fig 1), en plan (fig 2) et en coupe transversale (fig 3).In the accompanying drawings, given by way of nonlimiting example of one of the forms of the invention
Figures 1, 2, 3 schematically represent the device with oscillating nozzles, seen in longitudinal section (fig 1), in plan (fig 2) and in cross section (fig 3).
Les figures 4, 5, 6 montrent de la même manière le dispositif avec buses fixes.Figures 4, 5, 6 show in the same way the device with fixed nozzles.
Le dispositif, figure 1 à 3, est constitué d'une baignoire 1 ou d'un espace déterminé d'un bain de plus grande dimension, rempli d'une eau contenant des produits thérapeutiques, comportant un appui-tête 2 et un appui-pieds 3 réglables en hauteur maintenant le patient 4 en état de flottaison, et équipé de têtes pivotantes 5 munies de buses de projection 6 dont le champ d'action couvre la surface du corps du baigneur 4. Les têtes pivotantes 5, constituées d'une enveloppe fixées sur les parois de la baignoire 1, ou sur des supports immergés, et d'une partie mobile portant la buse 6, sont alignées sur le fond 7 ou sur les parois latérales 8 de la baignoire et sont alimentées par une pompe 9 recyclant l'eau du bain. Le flux de liquide propulsé par les buses 6 balaie un espace et crée une poussée qui se déplace avec la rotation et le relayage des différentes têtes.The device, FIGS. 1 to 3, consists of a bathtub 1 or a specific space of a larger bath, filled with water containing therapeutic products, comprising a headrest 2 and a support feet 3 adjustable in height keeping the patient 4 in a floating state, and equipped with pivoting heads 5 provided with projection nozzles 6 whose field of action covers the surface of the bather's body 4. The pivoting heads 5, consisting of a envelope fixed to the walls of the bathtub 1, or on immersed supports, and of a movable part carrying the nozzle 6, are aligned on the bottom 7 or on the side walls 8 of the bathtub and are supplied by a pump 9 recycling bath water. The flow of liquid propelled by the nozzles 6 scans a space and creates a thrust which moves with the rotation and the relaying of the different heads.
Comme les parties mobiles des têtes 5 sont reliées entre elles par un système de tringlerie 10 assurant une parfaite synchronisation des mouvements d'oscillations générés par un ou plusieurs moteurs 11 et qu'elles sont successivement alimentées par un distributeur 12, le résultat sera une onde se déplaçant sur le corps du baigneur 4. La forme de cette onde pourra être multiple, selon les choix effectués pour les commutations, les durées, vitesses, pressions et débit, ces choix étant ajustables et programmables grâce à un moyen de contrôle 13 consistant préférentiellement en un système à microprocesseur agissant aussi bien sur le distributeur 12 que sur le ou les moteurs 11. Un filtre et un régulateur de température complètent le dispositif.As the moving parts of the heads 5 are connected to each other by a linkage system 10 ensuring perfect synchronization of the movements of oscillations generated by one or more motors 11 and that they are successively supplied by a distributor 12, the result will be a wave moving on the body of the bather 4. The shape of this wave may be multiple, according to the choices made for the switching operations, the durations, speeds, pressures and flow rates, these choices being adjustable and programmable by means of a control means 13 preferably consisting of in a microprocessor system acting both on the distributor 12 and on the motor or motors 11. A filter and a temperature regulator complete the device.
Les figures 4 à 6 montrent ie même dispositif, mais avec buses fixes 6, montées sur des rampes 14 fixées longitudinalement sur le fond 7 ou les parois 8 de la baignoire 1 ou sur des support s immergés. Les flux de liquide propulsés par les buses 6 de différents débits et mises successivement sous pression créent une onde qui progresse. Différentes figures peuvent être envi sagées en fonction des séquences de commutation du distributeur 12 contrôlé par le moyen de programmation 13.Figures 4 to 6 show the same device, but with fixed nozzles 6, mounted on ramps 14 fixed longitudinally on the bottom 7 or the walls 8 of the bath 1 or on submerged supports. The liquid flows propelled by the nozzles 6 of different flow rates and successively pressurized create a wave which progresses. Different figures can be envisaged as a function of the switching sequences of the distributor 12 controlled by the programming means 13.
Grâce aux nombreuses possibilités de réglage et de programmation, permettant une grande divérsité de mouvements modulables induits, et entraînant une efficacité notablernent accrue des traitements hydrothérapiques, le dispositif qui vient d'être décrit se prête particulièrement bien à la réalisation d'installations de bains dans tous les établissements où cette thérapeutique est appliquée.Thanks to the numerous possibilities of adjustment and programming, allowing a great diversity of induced modular movements, and resulting in a notably increased efficiency of hydrotherapeutic treatments, the device which has just been described is particularly suitable for the realization of bath installations in all establishments where this therapy is applied.
Le positionnement des divers éléments constitutifs donnent à ce dispositif un maximum d'effets utiles qui n'avaient pas été obtenus à ce jour par des dispositifs similaires.The positioning of the various constituent elements gives this device a maximum of useful effects which had not been obtained to date by similar devices.
Cependant, les formes, dimensions et dispositions des différents éléments pourront varier dans la limite des équivalents, sans changer pour cela, la conception générale de l'invention qui vient d'être décrite. However, the shapes, dimensions and arrangements of the various elements may vary within the limit of equivalents, without changing the general conception of the invention which has just been described.
