Abstract

The device consists of a stable base (1) vertically supporting a series of flexible strips (2) which have at their end a system (3) facilitating the sliding of the Lycra material of a gel sleeve on the amputated stump.

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif d'aide auThe present invention relates to a device for assisting with

déroulement d'un manchon en gel, dans le domaine de l'appareillage orthopédique, sur le moignon d'un amputé du membre inférieur ou supérieur, et à la fois un support de manchon lorsqu'il n'est pas utilisé.  unwinding of a gel sleeve, in the field of orthopedic appliances, on the stump of an amputee of the lower or upper limb, and both a sleeve support when not in use.

Pour placer correctement un manchon de gel sur son moignon, le patient doit le dérouler à l'aide de ses deux mains, cette pratique est rendue difficile voir impossible quand le patient a des difficultés à faire l'usage des ses 10 membres supérieurs (arthrose, hémiplégie, amputation... .).  To correctly place a gel sleeve on his stump, the patient must unroll it with both hands, this practice is made difficult or even impossible when the patient has difficulty making use of his 10 upper limbs (arthritis , hemiplegia, amputation ...).

Les supports tubulaires existants ne prennent pas en charge la surface totale du manchon, provoquant des déformations de celui-ci si son conditionnement n'est pas maintenu à la verticale (transport, stockage...) .  The existing tubular supports do not support the total surface of the sleeve, causing deformations of the latter if its packaging is not kept vertical (transport, storage, etc.).

Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à cet inconvénient. Il comporte en effet un socle stable qui supporte une série de lames au profil demi rond. Ces lames sont surmontées d'un système facilitant le glissement du tissu lycra du manchon de gel, lors de son positionnement 20 sur le dispositif face de gel vers l'extérieur. Ainsi l'amputé présente son moignon en regard du centre du manchon: il exerce alors une force par son poids.  The device according to the invention overcomes this drawback. It indeed has a stable base which supports a series of blades with a half-round profile. These blades are surmounted by a system facilitating the sliding of the lycra fabric of the gel sleeve, when it is positioned on the device with the gel face outwards. Thus the amputee presents his stump opposite the center of the sleeve: he then exerts a force by his weight.

Le manchon se déroule sur son moignon, grâce aux lames qui s'ouvrent sous la poussée du patient pour s'adapter au diamètre du moignon, sans l'obligation d'utiliser une autre aide. Par ailleurs, pour sa mise au repos, le manchon est déroulé sur le dispositif, face de gel vers l'intérieur: le dispositif devient un support, grâce à ses lames dont la largeur et la forme maintiennent le manchon dans sa taille 30 standard initiale.  The sleeve is unrolled on its stump, thanks to the blades which open under the patient's push to adapt to the diameter of the stump, without the obligation to use another aid. Furthermore, to put it to rest, the sleeve is unwound on the device, gel side inward: the device becomes a support, thanks to its blades whose width and shape keep the sleeve in its initial standard size. .

Selon des modes particuliers de réalisation: * Les lames peuvent constituer une partie du socle stable à leur base permettant leur assemblage.  According to particular embodiments: * The blades can constitute a part of the base stable at their base allowing their assembly.

* Les lames et le socle peuvent être d'un seul tenant. 35 * Les lames sont flexibles quelque soit la matière choisie.  * The blades and the base can be in one piece. 35 * The blades are flexible whatever the material chosen.

* Le profil des lames doit prendre en charge le gel au repos sur sa surface sans marquer celui-ci.  * The profile of the blades must support the gel at rest on its surface without marking it.

* Les bords supérieurs des lames ont un système ou une forme ou une matière facilitant le déroulement du manchon sans causer de dommage au gel lors de la mise en conditionnement de celui-ci.  * The upper edges of the blades have a system or a shape or a material facilitating the unwinding of the sleeve without causing damage to the gel when it is put into packaging.

Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention: La figure 1 représente le dispositif de l'invention La figure 2 représente un manchon(2) au repos sur le dispositif (1).  The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention: Figure 1 shows the device of the invention Figure 2 shows a sleeve (2) at rest on the device (1).

La figure 3 représente un manchon (2) gel vers l'extérieur enfilé sur le dispositif (1).  FIG. 3 represents an outward gel sleeve (2) threaded onto the device (1).

La figure 4 représente le moignon (3) en regard du manchon (2) gel vers l'extérieur enfilé sur le dispositif (1).  Figure 4 shows the stump (3) facing the sleeve (2) gel outwardly threaded on the device (1).

La figure E représente le manchon (2) se déroulant sur le moignon (3) poussé par le dispositif (1) avec la seule force exercée par le moignon.  Figure E shows the sleeve (2) unwinding on the stump (3) pushed by the device (1) with the only force exerted by the stump.

La figure 6 représente le manchon (2) déroulé sur le moignon (3) par le dispositif de l'invention (1).  Figure 6 shows the sleeve (2) unwound on the stump (3) by the device of the invention (1).

En référence à ces dessins, le dispositif comporte un socle FIG.1(l) stable, supportant des lames FIG.1(2), comportant à leur extrémité supérieur un système FIG.1 (3) 25 facilitant le déroulement du manchon.  With reference to these drawings, the device comprises a stable FIG. 1 (l) base, supporting FIG. 1 blades (2), comprising at their upper end a FIG. 1 (3) system facilitating the unwinding of the sleeve.

Les lames FIG.l(2) et le système facilitant le déroulement FIG.l(3) ont une forme et une longueur adaptées à la conicité du manchon FIG.2(2) pour un maintien de la surface du gel du manchon dans sa taille standard initiale 30 FIG2.  The FIG.l (2) blades and the system facilitating the FIG.l (3) unwinding have a shape and a length adapted to the taper of the FIG. 2 sleeve (2) for maintaining the surface of the gel of the sleeve in its initial standard size 30 FIG2.

Les lames FIG.l(2) ont une certaine flexibilité laissant la possibilité de s'ouvrir aux circonférences successives du moignon lors du déroulement FIG 4 5 6.  The FIG.l (2) blades have a certain flexibility leaving the possibility of opening to the successive circumferences of the stump during the unwinding of FIG 4 5 6.

Le système facilitant le déroulement FIG.1(3) a un profil haricot, téflonné il glisse facilement sur le revêtement lycra du manchon.  The system facilitating the unwinding FIG. 1 (3) has a bean profile, teflon-coated, it slides easily on the lycra coating of the sleeve.

Selon une variante non illustrée, le système facilitant le déroulement peut être réalisé mécaniquement avec une roulette, à condition que celleci n'altère pas le gel du manchon lors de la mise au repos.  According to a variant not illustrated, the system facilitating the unwinding can be carried out mechanically with a roller, provided that this does not alter the gel of the sleeve during the setting to rest.

A titre d'exemple non limitatif, le dispositif aura des dimensions de l'ordre de 50cm de hauteur et un diamètre 10 de socle de 13cm.  By way of nonlimiting example, the device will have dimensions of the order of 50cm in height and a base diameter of 13cm.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est particulièrement destiné au chaussage des manchons de gel pour l'appareillage orthopédique et son maintien correct lors de son conditionnement.  The device according to the invention is particularly intended for fitting the gel sleeves for the orthopedic appliance and for maintaining it correctly during its packaging.
