Description
La présente invention concerne un appareil de relaxation de la colonne vertébrale ou des membres inférieurs du corps humain par étirement.The present invention relates to an apparatus for relaxing the spine or the lower limbs of the human body by stretching.
De nombreux dispositifs et appareils existent pour développer un effort de traction afin de relaxer la colonne vertébrale de pressions et tassements intervertébraux divers, depuis le simple appareil sur lequel la personne s’allonge sur le dos et qui creuse sa colonne vertébrale, ou l’appareil qui prend en charge la tête de la personne et permet de la suspendre par exemple à une poignée de porte, ou encore l’appareil articulé sur lequel la personne s’allonge sur le ventre et dont le poids propre exerce une traction entre le bassin et les épaules. D’autres appareils plus sophistiqués fixent le corps avec des sangles et exercent une traction sur la colonne vertébrale, parfois de façon motorisée avec éventuellement des cycles automatisés de sollicitations. D’autres appareils enfin, dits « tables d’inversion » consistent à attacher la personne par les pieds et à la faire basculer en partie centrale pour placer la tête en partie basse, afin de développer une tension sur la colonne vertébrale par le poids du corps, la traction est maximum sur les lombaires et décroit jusqu’à être très faible sur les cervicales, ces dernières n’étant sollicitées que par la composante inclinée du poids de la tête Ces divers appareils représentent le plus souvent des positions inconfortables, en particulier la tête en bas, ou bien sollicitent uniquement soit les lombaires et les dorsales soit les cervicales Ils peuvent être parfois encombrants ou être plus spécifiquement du matériel professionnel.Many devices and devices exist to develop a traction effort in order to relax the spine from various intervertebral pressures and compressions, from the simple device on which the person lies on their back and which hollows their spine, or the device which supports the head of the person and allows it to be suspended, for example, from a door handle, or even the articulated device on which the person lies on his stomach and whose own weight exerts traction between the pelvis and shoulders. Other more sophisticated devices fix the body with straps and exert traction on the spine, sometimes in a motorized way with possibly automated cycles of solicitations. Finally, other devices, known as "inversion tables", consist of attaching the person by the feet and tilting them in the central part to place the head in the lower part, in order to develop tension on the spine by the weight of the body, the traction is maximum on the lumbar and decreases until it is very weak on the cervical, the latter being solicited only by the inclined component of the weight of the head These various devices most often represent uncomfortable positions, in particular head down, or only solicit either the lumbar and dorsal or the cervical They can sometimes be cumbersome or more specifically be professional equipment.
La présente invention concerne un appareil, destiné aux professionnels mais aussi de façon domestique aux particuliers, permettant de mettre en traction à volonté d’une part la colonne vertébrale avec action spécifique sur les vertèbres cervicales ou sur les lombaires ou d’autre part les membres inférieurs avec action spécifique sur les genoux et les hanches Ces actions sont réalisées par l’intermédiaire de tendeurs qui peuvent être des ressorts ou des élastiques caoutchoutés, la personne utilisatrice étant allongée confortablement sur un coussin sur la longueur de la colonne vertébrale et de la tête. Le ou les tendeurs exercent une traction soit sur la tête et sollicitent dans ce cas principalement les vertèbres cervicales, soit sur le bassin et sollicitent principalement les vertèbres lombaires. Le tronc reposant en totalité sur un coussin en mousse solidarisé de la structure, la force de frottement entre le corps et le coussin est suffisante pour dispenser d’attacher la personne à la structure. Ainsi, l’effort de traction sur le haut ou sur le bas du corps s’atténue progressivement le long de la colonne vertébrale pour solliciter principalement soit les cervicales, soit les lombaires à relaxer. Le dispositif permettant d’attacher la tête permet également d’attacher les pieds pour une relaxation des membres inférieurs, spécialement des genoux et des hanches Dans tous les cas de figure, l’effort de traction est obtenu à volonté en fonction de la puissance des tendeurs utilisés et de la position du corps par rapport au dispositif d’attache, ladite position déterminant la tension desdits tendeurs.The present invention relates to an apparatus, intended for professionals but also in a domestic way for individuals, making it possible to put traction at will on the one hand the spine with specific action on the cervical vertebrae or on the lumbar or on the other hand the limbs lower with specific action on the knees and hips These actions are carried out by means of tensioners which can be springs or rubber bands, with the user lying comfortably on a cushion along the length of the spine and head . The tensioner(s) exert a traction either on the head and in this case mainly solicit the cervical vertebrae, or on the pelvis and mainly solicit the lumbar vertebrae. The trunk resting entirely on a foam cushion secured to the structure, the friction force between the body and the cushion is sufficient to dispense with attaching the person to the structure. Thus, the traction effort on the upper or lower body is gradually reduced along the spine to mainly solicit either the cervical or the lumbar to relax. The device for attaching the head also makes it possible to attach the feet for relaxation of the lower limbs, especially the knees and the hips. In all cases, the tractive effort is obtained at will according to the power of the tensioners used and the position of the body relative to the attachment device, said position determining the tension of said tensioners.
La présente invention est constituée d’une structure de base horizontale, posée au sol ou éventuellement sur des supports, solidaire d’une part d’un coussin et d’autre part d’un dispositif, en console par rapport à la structure horizontale de base, permettant d’accrocher le ou les tendeurs à une hauteur fonctionnelle par rapport à la personne allongée sur le coussin. Le ou les tendeurs sont reliés soit à un bandeau passant sous la nuque et entourant la tête pour la relaxation des cervicales, soit reliés à une ceinture au niveau du bassin, incorporant ou non le bandeau, en passant entre les jambes pour la relaxation des lombaires, soit encore les tendeurs sont reliés aux pieds avec le bandeau pour exercer une traction sur les membres inférieurs pour relaxer les genoux et /ou les hanches. Ledit dispositif en console d’attache des tendeurs est pliable pour réduire l’encombrement de l’ensemble pour son transport et son rangement.The present invention consists of a horizontal base structure, placed on the ground or possibly on supports, secured on the one hand to a cushion and on the other hand to a device, in console with respect to the horizontal structure of base, allowing the tensioner(s) to be hung at a functional height in relation to the person lying on the cushion. The tensioner(s) are connected either to a band passing under the neck and surrounding the head for the relaxation of the cervical spine, or connected to a belt at the level of the pelvis, incorporating or not the band, passing between the legs for the relaxation of the lumbar , or else the turnbuckles are connected to the feet with the headband to exert traction on the lower limbs to relax the knees and/or the hips. Said device in the tensioner attachment console is foldable to reduce the size of the assembly for its transport and storage.
