Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a device for treating knee pain that can reduce pain of the knee joint pain or eliminate the pain depending on the symptoms.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 At the joints of human knees, articular cartilage is covered at the tip of the bone, which absorbs and disperses the force applied to the joints, and works to maintain smooth movement by synovial fluid secreted from the inner periosteum of the surrounding area. It has become. However, since cartilage does not contain blood vessels and nerves, nutrients are supplied to the cartilage by passing through the synovial fluid, and blood does not serve as a direct nutrient. For this reason, if cartilage is damaged or compression necrosis occurs due to aging or excessive exercise, etc., the repair will be delayed, and since there is no nerve, it is difficult to notice abnormalities, and abnormalities will occur in the synovium and bones. It usually expands and pains are first noticed.

[0003] In such arthralgia of the knee, the cartilage undergoes aging changes (aging and degeneration), loses elasticity, is pushed out to the side by the pressure of weight and the like, and the hammer of the just used hammer turns over. As it does, it creates thorns (osteophytes) and abnormal bulges (bulging), which can stimulate the bones in the subchondral layer to soften the bones and create capsules.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 In the treatment of the above-mentioned knee joint pain, it is necessary to consume abundant sources of calcium, such as milk and small fish, in order to prevent bone aging due to diet, ie, intake of calcium. Exercise according to physical strength is required, and it is important to use all joints and muscles as much as possible. This stimulates the bones, increases the activity of the bone cells, and is effective in preventing aging, degeneration and atrophy.

[0005] Furthermore, non-invasive treatments include pharmacotherapy, orthotics, orthodontics, physiotherapy, traction treatment, gymnastics (exercise) therapy, massage and the like. Medical treatment is being performed. Although these therapies may have their therapeutic consequences, complete therapy has not been fully developed.

[0006] By the way, the above-mentioned traction therapy aims at adding muscle strength and activating bone cells by, for example, hanging a weight on an ankle and vertically moving the ankle. However, in practice, it is difficult to obtain the above-mentioned effects, and since these treatments are usually performed at hospital visits, burdens on hospital visits, treatment costs, etc. are high, and it is difficult to obtain sufficient treatment results. Is the actual situation.

[0007] In view of the above circumstances, the present invention can provide an easy and effective treatment result at home, has a small and simple structure, is easy to carry, and has a knee joint pain. An object of the present invention is to provide a device for treating knee pain that can be reduced or eliminated.

[0008]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is characterized in that a tool main body having a locking portion for supporting a toe portion, and at least two casters are attached to a bottom surface of the tool main body.

The locking portion is a locking hole formed at the center of the tool body, such as a circle, through which a heel portion of a foot is inserted and locked.

[0010] Furthermore, a protective pad is attached to the inner edge of the locking hole to make the contact of the foot soft, and to prevent pain and damage to the heel of the user.

[0011]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

 Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a partially cutaway perspective view showing a caster portion, and FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing a use state. Reference numeral 1 denotes a tool body formed in a circular shape made of wood, and a circular locking hole 3 into which the heel part 2 of the foot is inserted and locked is formed in the center of the inside of the tool. A protective pad 4 made of rubber is attached to the inner peripheral edge of the locking hole 3 to prevent damage to the heel portion 2 and provide a soft touch when the heel portion 2 is brought into contact with the locking hole 3. Reference numeral 5 denotes a caster mounted on the bottom surface of the tool body 1 at equal intervals. The caster 5 has a board 6 screwed to the bottom face of the tool body 1 as shown in FIG. And a wheel 8 rotatably mounted on the tip of the bracket 7. With such a configuration, the present invention is such that the tool body 1 can move in the front-rear direction, the left-right direction, and the turning motion by pressing and turning the heel portion 2 (see FIG. 3).

In the above-described embodiment, the material of the instrument body 1 is wood, but the material is not limited to this, and plastic may be integrally molded. The shape is not limited to a circle, and various shapes such as a square, a rectangle, and a rhombus are selected. Further, although the number of the casters 5 is four in the present embodiment, if at least two or more, the casters 5 may be installed at a position where the pressure by the heel 2 can be evenly dispersed. In addition, if the inner peripheral portion of the locking hole 3 of the tool body 1 is cut into a smooth curved surface without providing the protective pad 4 in particular, the protective pad 4 is not required.

In the present embodiment, the locking hole 3 into which the heel portion 2 formed in the center of the tool main body 1 is inserted as the locking portion of the toe. However, the present invention is not limited to this. The toe may be attached to clogs, sandals, or the like, or the toes may be fixed to the tool body 1 with the entire feet or toes of the feet.

A method of using the present invention configured as described above will be described. The user inserts and fixes the heel 2 into the locking hole 3. Then, as shown by the arrows in the figure, the tool main body 1 is moved in the front-rear direction, the left-right direction, and the rotational motion while pressing the heel portion 2 while pressing. By repeating these tasks, the muscles in the knee area can be easily strengthened. Therefore, according to the inventor, as a result of performing this exercise five times a day for 15 minutes, the pain in the knee joint was reduced and the pain was eliminated. When the foot is moved up and down, it is desirable to bind the heel portion 2 to the tool body 1 with a string or the like in order to prevent the heel portion 2 from coming off from the locking hole 3.

[0015]

[Effect of the invention]

 Since the present invention is configured as described above, the knee joint pain can be easily treated at home with a simple structure, and the effect of providing an extremely useful treatment device of this kind can be obtained. In addition, it is lightweight and convenient to carry, eliminates the complications of successive visits, and has an excellent advantage that it can provide a very useful therapeutic tool for those suffering from knee joint pain.
