Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a medical corset that fixes the back vertebrae due to diseases such as the back vertebrae and intervertebral discs, or maintains the dorsiflexion position of the dorsal column. However, the degree of fixation can be changed depending on the disease state.

To explain this invention with reference to the drawings, reference numeral 1.1 is a base column, which is formed of two elastic plates parallel to each other with an interval, and has a side clamping band 2 at the main end and a waist support support at the lower end. Each waist support tool 3a having a tool 3b is fixed.

The armpit strap body 2 is made of a slightly hard material, and has a breastplate piece 4 fixed to one end thereof, and the other end is detachably attached to this breastplate piece 4 via a fastener 5. be able to. The waist support tool 3a and the waist support auxiliary tool 3b are made of a hard material, have attachment bands 6, 6 attached to their tips, and can be elastically joined via buckles or the like. By the way, sheath-shaped fixing fittings 7, 8, and T-8 are provided at the bottom ends of the base pillars 1 and 1, and leaf springs 9 and 9 can be fitted and fixed between these fixing fittings 7 and 8 under the ground. It's becoming like that. As shown in the figure, this leaf spring 9 is made of steel plate made in the shape of alternating cuts on both side edges of a band-shaped plate, and the lower end of one or more of these plates is inserted into the fixing fitting T.8. , and can be fixed together by inserting screws 10. The present invention has the above-mentioned structure, and whereas the conventional structure is formed as a mantle that fits closely to the body and has a base made of a rigid body with no elasticity as a main body, in particular, the base pillars 1 and 1 Since it is formed by attaching the required number of leaf springs 9, the degree of flexibility can be freely selected by changing the number of leaf springs 9.

Since the leaf spring 9 has a shape in which cuts are made alternately in a band-like plate, it has a soft elasticity equivalent to that of a wavy spring even though it is a flat plate, and the above-mentioned selection range can be widened. Also, base pillar 1
・Since two plates 1 are arranged in parallel at intervals, the number of plate springs 9 can be changed from side to side without directly compressing the back vertebrae. That is, since the lower end of the base column 1 is fixed to the waist support tool 3a, and the waist support support tool 3b is located between the front skewers, the main end follows the shape of the attached leaf spring 9. It is always held facing backwards, and therefore the flexibility of the base pillar 1 can be adjusted in advance to the extent necessary to fix the patient's lower back and back, or to correct main points such as a hunched back or turtle back (dorsiflexion of the dorsal pillar). By setting the strength and wearing it according to your strength, you can encourage the appropriate use of the paravertebral muscles, prevent their deterioration, and promote their recovery. In addition, the band 6 and armpit strap 2 are movable individually instead of an integrated mantle, and the conventional shoulder strap has been changed to armpit strap 2 with breastplate piece 4, making it easy to wear. Of course, the shoulders,
It has many advantages, such as not hindering the movement of the arms, etc., and since there is no fixed pressure on the abdomen, the dorsiflexion position of the dorsal column can be taken freely.

[Brief explanation of the drawing]

FIG. 1 is a slope view seen from the rear, FIG. 2A is a front view in the installed state, and FIG. 2B is a side view.

Claims (1)

[Claims] 1 Base pillars 1 and 1 with two elastic plates arranged side by side with the front facing the back have a breastplate piece 4 at one end at each end, and the other end can be freely engaged and detached from this breastplate piece. A slightly hard armpit clamping band 2 connected to form a ring shape and a hard waist support 3a with mounting bands 6, 6 connected to the ends are each fixed, and both ends of the waist support 3a are connected upward. In addition to attaching the curved hard waist support aid 3b, sheath-shaped fixing fittings 7 and 8 are provided at the upper and lower ends of the back surfaces of the base columns 1 and 1, respectively, and a separate base 1 is installed between these fixing fittings 7 and 8. This medical corset is made by removably bonding and superposing required pieces of leaf springs 9, 9, which are approximately the same size as , 1 and are cut alternately from the left and right sides.
