The present invention relates to a device for supporting a user (patient) in a prone position and to correct the spine. 51), the chest 52, the center 50, each leg 53 is coupled to allow the spacing in a straight line via the connecting rod 54.

Face stand 51 is a curved groove (51b) is formed on the upper surface to enable breathing as a part of the face in contact with the user lying down. Chest unit 52 and each leg 53 is a portion where the user's chest and legs are in contact with each other, it is not necessary to form a different curved surface on the upper surface. The face rest 51, chest 52, the center 50, each leg 53 is a through groove 51a, 52a, 53a, 54a for inserting the connecting rod 54 to the bottom Have

The material of such a body is not particularly limited and it is safe to use light and solid wood, plastic and the like. In particular, in the case of using plastic, the through-hole 51a, 52a, 53a, 54a can be formed during injection molding. The connecting rod 54 and the through grooves 51a, 52a, 53a, and 54a are coupled to the sliding resistance by appropriate pressure so that the face rest 51, the chest 52, the center 50, and each leg The interval at 53 is prevented from being arbitrarily changed. In some cases, additional fastening means such as bolts may be installed to maintain a fixed position by tightening.

According to the configuration as described above, removing the connecting rod 54 from the face stand 51, the chest bag 52, the center stand 50, each bag 53 is separated and stored or moved conveniently.

In addition, according to the present invention, the movable means 60 that can adjust the position of the pelvic zone 61 according to the user's physical condition is variably mounted between the designated positions on the center bar 50 of the main body. Pelvic zone 61 is composed of a pair and needs to adjust the interval according to the user's physical condition (such as the size of the pelvis). The movable means 60 is a mechanism for moving this pelvis 61 with an electric force by the motor 64.

At this time, the center bar 50 of the main body 50 is the first mounting hole (50b), the second mounting hole (50c) so that the movable means 60 is variably accommodated at two positions forming the crossing angle (θ) of about 54 ° intervals ) And a third mounting hole 50d. The result of the clinical experiment is that it is highly effective to place the pelvis 61 in such a position that the crossing angle θ is selected by a position of ± 54 ° based on the horizontal direction (that is, the direction perpendicular to the connecting rod 54). It is by. The structure of the 1st mounting hole 50b, the 2nd mounting hole 50c, and the 3rd mounting hole 50d refers to description of FIG. 2 mentioned later.

1 and 2, according to the present invention, the movable means 60 is fixed to a rail 62 for supporting the pair of pelvic braces 61 in a linear motion, and to a center lower end of the rail 62. Motor 64, a screw 65 connected to the rotating shaft of the motor 64, a slider 66 mounted on the screw 65 so as to be movable up and down, and the slider 66 and the pelvis ( A link 67 connecting 61 and a switch 68 for rotating the motor 64 forward and reverse.

The rail 62 has a narrow and long groove 62a formed along the longitudinal direction, and a jaw 62a that is engaged with the groove 62a is formed at the bottom of the pelvis 61. According to such a configuration, the pelvis 61 can be accurately linearly moved without shaking on the rail 62. The screw 65 and the slider 66 form the pitch of the thread as small as possible to smooth the spiral movement. The link 67 is connected to the pelvis 61 and the slider 66 by bolts, but maintains tolerances to minimize joint play and smooth joint movement. The motor 64 uses an AC servomotor which can be operated at low speed and high torque, and is fixed using the bracket 63. The motor 64 also includes circuit means for enabling forward and reverse rotation. The switch 68 and the plug 69 for driving the motor 64 are pulled out to a sufficient length out of the center stand 50. The switch 68 is integrally provided with a forward rotation button and a reverse rotation button.

When the movable means 60 is mounted on the center stand 50, only the rail 62 and the pelvic stand 61 are exposed to the upper portion, and the remaining portions are provided in the first mounting hole 50b, the second mounting hole 50c, and the first mounting hole 50c. 3 is concealed on the mounting hole 50d. The first mounting hole 50b receives the bracket 63 and the motor 64 without interference and the second mounting hole 50c receives the link 67 without interference. The third mounting hole 50d closely accommodates the protrusions 62b joined downward at both ends of the rail 62 so that the pelvis 61 is supported without shaking.

Accordingly, it is possible to lift the whole of the movable means 60 to be mounted at one position of the center stage 50 and to be lifted again to be mounted at another position. The angular spacing between the two positions on which the movable means 60 is mounted is the crossing angle θ described above.

Figure 3 is a block diagram showing a state before and after the operation of the instrument according to the invention.

When the plug 69 is connected to the power source and the switch 68 is operated to move the slider 66 downward, the pelvis 61 of both sides is simultaneously collected while the angle formed by both links 67 decreases. By operating the switch 68 in the opposite direction and moving the slider 66 in the upward direction, the angle formed by both side links 67 increases, and both pelvic zones 61 open simultaneously. At this time, by imprinting the graduation on the rail 62, the user can move the pelvis 61 to a position suitable for them at any time.

Meanwhile, according to a modified example of the present invention, a plurality of screws 72 are additionally mounted on the bottom of the pelvis 61 to manually adjust the spacing and position of the pelvis 61 of the movable means 60. The center stand 50 of the main body may further include a plurality of fourth mounting holes 50e for accommodating the screws 72.

This is in preparation for manually adjusting the pelvis 61 due to a failure of the motor 64 or other needs, and then loosening the joints 71 and links 67 of the pelvis 61 and then screwing 72 Loosen) so as to protrude about 1 cm and insert into the fourth mounting hole (50e) of the central bar 50 and fixed. The screw 72 is installed in at least two places using the headless form and is not protruded when driven by the motor 64 at all times. The fourth mounting holes 50e are formed at uniform widths and intervals along both sides of the respective second mounting holes 50c. Of course, when the motor 64 is to be used again, the screw 72 may be returned and the link 67 may be connected to the joint 71.

The operation of the instrument according to the invention is described with reference to FIGS.

First, the patient is lying down, the pelvis is located in the central zone 50, and then the facial zone 51, chest 52, each leg 53 is adjusted to the size of the body. In this position, grab the legs on both sides, shake the whole body from side to side to straighten the spine, and then turn both ankles at right angles to find the short legs. Next, using the switch 68, the pelvic zone 61 is moved from the trochanter portion of the short limb toward the anterior superior iliac pole. According to the physical condition of the patient, the mounting position of the movable means 60 and the distance between the two pelvic bands 61 should be adjusted to be different.

In this state, wait about three minutes to repeat deep breathing, and then compare the length of the legs on both sides. If the leg length does not equal or the symptoms of sciatica (including pseudo sciatica) caused by low back pain and disc do not disappear, take down the instrument of the present invention and take a break for about 20 seconds and repeat the above process again. This process is repeated several times until the legs are the same length or the symptoms disappear.

This will reduce the back pain and sciatica as the legs are the same length and the pelvis normalizes into place. The position of the cervical spine can also be held in place to maintain an organic rhythm throughout the body.

Of course, if you want to use the apparatus of the present invention at home, the user can easily set the position of the movable means 60 or the interval of the pelvis 61 according to the doctor's prescription. Even when the apparatus of the present invention is used manually, the pelvis 61 can be lifted and adjusted to an appropriate position.

The chiropractic device of the present invention having the above-described configuration and action not only solves the cause of spinal pain by easily correcting the position of the pelvis in a hospital or home by a relatively simple configuration and usage, but also chronic low back pain and sciatica caused by the disc. And other spinal diseases.
