DESCRIZIONE DESCRIPTION

SETTORE TECNICO TECHNICAL FIELD

Il gambaletto rieducativo programmabile afferisce al settore tecnico dei prodotti elettro - medicali. The programmable rehabilitation knee-highs belong to the technical sector of electro - medical products.

STATO DELL' ARTE STATE OF THE ART

Le patologie a carico del sistema linfatico sono di norma curate con opportuni massaggi pressori delle estremit? dal basso verso l?alto. The pathologies affecting the lymphatic system are usually treated with appropriate pressure massages of the extremities? bottom up.

I massaggi possono essere di tipo manuale o meccanico. Massages can be manual or mechanical.

II massaggio manuale ? eseguito da personale medico o paramedico. Manual massage? performed by medical or paramedical personnel.

Mentre allo stato dell?arte attuale i massaggi meccanici sono realizzati con gambaletti a settori gonfiabili che vengono espansi in sequenza. While in the current state of the art, mechanical massages are made with knee-highs with inflatable sectors that are expanded in sequence.

La sequenza ? del tipo: The sequence ? of the type:

- gonfia settore 1 - inflates sector 1

- sgonfia settore 1; gonfia settore 2 - deflates sector 1; swell sector 2

- sgonfia settore 2; gonfia settore 3 - deflates sector 2; swell sector 3

ecc. etc.

I settori sono gonfiati a mezzo di un piccolo compressore. The sectors are inflated by means of a small compressor.

II tempo necessario per gonfiare e sgonfiare i settori ? impostato con un timer. Il complesso costituito da compressore, elettrovalvole e timer ? contenuto in un cassetto porta strumentazione e viene alimentato da rete. The time needed to inflate and deflate the sectors? set with a timer. The complex consisting of a compressor, solenoid valves and timer? contained in an instrumentation drawer and is powered by the mains.

Il trattamento pressoterapico meccanico viene generalmente eseguito al mattino ed alla sera. Mechanical pressotherapy treatment is generally performed in the morning and in the evening.

Al mattino appena alzato, alla sera prima di coricarsi. In the morning as soon as you get up, in the evening before going to bed.

La durata di ogni applicazione ? tipicamente di circa 30 minuti. The duration of each application? typically about 30 minutes.

Questo ? l?attuale stato del?arte. This ? the current state of the art.

Per quanto descritto sopra, ? evidente che il trattamento pressoterapico meccanico come indicato non pu? essere eseguito continuativamente durante tutta la giornata ragione questa per la quale non pu? sortire effetti realmente rieducativi. As described above,? evident that the mechanical pressure therapy treatment as indicated can not? be performed continuously throughout the day, which is why it cannot? have truly re-educational effects.

DESCRIZIONE DESCRIPTION

Il gambaletto rieducativo programmabile si applica ove risulta tipicamente evidenti il gonfiore generato per la stagnazione dei liquidi e cio? generalmente negli arti inferiori. The programmable rehabilitation knee-high is applied where the swelling generated by the stagnation of liquids is typically evident and that is? generally in the lower limbs.

Pu? comunque essere adattato a qualunque altro arto del corpo. Pu? however be adapted to any other limb of the body.

Il gambaletto ? indossato sin dal primo mattino. The knee-high? worn since early morning.

Il gambaletto ? costituito da una matrice in tessuto elastico sottile (v. Dis. 005 part. 501), posta esternamente avente la doppia funzione di contenere il gonfiore degli arti e di richiamare in posizione gli elementi SMA (v. Dis. 001 part. 103)una volta che sia venuta loro a mancare l'aiimentazione elettrica la quale per effetto Joule produce il riscaldamento e la deformazione dell'elemento (allargamento). The knee-high? consisting of a matrix in thin elastic fabric (see Dis. 005 part. 501), placed externally with the dual function of containing the swelling of the limbs and of recalling the SMA elements into position (see Drawing 001 part. 103) a once they have lost the power supply which, due to the Joule effect, produces the heating and deformation of the element (enlargement).

La parte interna ? costituita da Glenpile di Glenoit Mills ( o equivalente) che ? un tessuto con fibre interne di materiale a cambiamento di fase (PCM)(v. Dis. The inside? consisting of Glenpile of Glenoit Mills (or equivalent) which? a fabric with internal fibers of phase change material (PCM) (see Dis.

005 part. 502). 005 part. 502).

Questo tessuto avr? la funzione di assorbire il calore generato dal riscaldamento degli elementi SMA, che comunque non produrr? un aumento di temperatura tale da superare i 50?C. This fabric will have? the function of absorbing the heat generated by the heating of the SMA elements, which in any case will not produce? an increase in temperature such as to exceed 50 ° C.

A diretto contatto con la pelle avremo uno strato in tessuto di seta sintetica a fibre ritorte ad alta resistenza processo tipo "post spin", che favorir? lo scivolamento del gambaletto in posizione nel momento in cui lo si indossa(v. Dis. 005 part. 503). In direct contact with the skin we will have a layer of high resistance synthetic silk fabric with "post spin" type process, which will favor? the sliding of the knee-high into position when it is put on (see Drawing 005 part. 503).

Il gambaletto sar? tenuto in posizione da una "giarrettiera" (v. Dis. 004 part. The knee-high will be? held in position by a "garter" (see Dis. 004 part.

402) posta al di sopra del ginocchio, la quale avr? la ulteriore funzione di tenere in aderenza i conduttori alla gamba. 402) placed above the knee, which will have? the additional function of keeping the conductors in adherence to the leg.

I conduttori saranno riuniti in un assemblaggio di tipo "fiat". The conductors will be brought together in a "fiat" type assembly.

All'altezza dell'inguine un'altra "giarrettiera" terr? in aderenza i conduttori con la parte superiore della gamba(v. Dis. 004 part. 403). At the height of the groin another "garter" terr? in adherence to the conductors with the upper part of the leg (see Dis. 004 part. 403).

I conduttori saranno infine collegati con la batteria ed il microcontrollore. The conductors will finally be connected with the battery and the microcontroller.

La batteria sar? del tipo al Litio Ferro Fosfato (LFP) e sar? assemblata nello stesso contenitore contenente il microcontrollore, a rendere quanto pi? compatta possibile l'esecuzione(v. Dis. 004 part. 404). The battery will be? of the Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) type and will be? assembled in the same container containing the microcontroller, to make the most? compact execution possible (see Drawing 004 part. 404).

Il contenitore sar? portato agganciato in vita alla cintura. The container will be? worn hooked at the waist to the belt.

La batteria avr? la funzione di alimentare gli elementi SMA a produrre l'effetto Joule. The battery will have? the function of feeding the SMA elements to produce the Joule effect.

Il microcontrollore avr? la funzione di sequenzializzare i tempi di intervento sugli elementi in base alle caratteristiche elettriche di ciascun elemento. The microcontroller will have? the function of sequencing the intervention times on the elements based on the electrical characteristics of each element.

Si veda in proposito l'esempio relativo allo schema elettrico (v. Dis. 002 part. In this regard, see the example relating to the wiring diagram (see Dis. 002 part.

203)ed al semplice modulo di programma proposto (v. Dis. 003). 203) and the simple program module proposed (see Drawing 003).

In pratica il microcontrollore avr? il compito di pilotare gli elementi similmente a quanto accade nel sistema di massaggio pressoterapico meccanico richiamato nel paragrafo "Stato dell'arte". In practice, the microcontroller will have? the task of piloting the elements similarly to what happens in the mechanical pressure therapy massage system referred to in the paragraph "State of the art".

La sequenza di controllo degli elementi SMA, potr? essere personalizzata e modificata nel tempo in base alle esigenze del paziente ed alla evoluzione eventualmente riscontrata nella patologia, semplicemente ri program mando via software il microcontrollore, ovvero modificando adeguatamente i passi di programma (v. Dis. 003). The control sequence of the SMA elements, can? be customized and modified over time based on the patient's needs and the evolution that may be encountered in the pathology, simply by re-programming the microcontroller via software, or by adequately modifying the program steps (see Figure 003).

A garantire la durata della batteria per l'intero arco della giornata, la batteria sar? collegata ad un piccolo pannello solare fotovoltaico flessibile installato su un giubbetto indossato dal paziente che produrr? la ricarica in tampone della batteria LFP (v. Dis. 004 part. 405). To guarantee the battery life for the whole day, the battery will be? connected to a small flexible photovoltaic solar panel installed on a jacket worn by the patient that will produce? the buffer recharge of the LFP battery (see Drawing 004 part. 405).
