Description

Portable Chiropractic Device with Different Stimulation Protrusion Structures on the Upper and Lower Surfaces Thereof}

The present invention relates to a chiropractic device, which is not composed of a combined article or a composite article, but is configured to perform acupressure locally differently depending on the position of the spine by using a single portable acupressure device composed of a single body of a single material. It relates to a portable non-powered self-acupressure device, and in particular, a portable chiropractic device configured to use different acupressure protrusions for the cervical vertebrae and vertebrae other than the cervical vertebrae (thoracic, lumbar, sacral, etc.) as one device. About.

As shown in FIG. 1, the spine is composed of 32 vertebrae that support the head upward as a pillar forming the center of our body and connect to the pelvis downward. In other words, the vertebrae of the human body are 7 cervical vertebrae (10), which are cervical spine structures from top to bottom, 12 thoracic vertebrae (20), which occupy the middle part of the spine, and spines of the waist. In the lumbar vertebrae (30) 5, sacrum (40), which refers to the hip bone below the lumbar vertebrae, and the tailbone (50), which refers to the tailbone at the far end of the vertebral group, 3-4, etc. Consists of The vertebrae have a generally common structure except for the cervical vertebrae 1 and 2, the sacrum and the tail vertebrae, and the cervical vertebrae 1 and 2 are deformed to support the skull so that the movement of the neck is possible.

In general, the structure of the spine is the spine body, which occupies a large volume, at the front and the spine hole at the back. The unit structure of the bone that forms this hole is the vertebral ring. Transverse processes (transverse processes) extend to both sides around the vertebral ring, and spinous processes (spinous processes) protrude in the center behind it.

The spinal cord is composed of nerve fibers. The upper part controls breathing, tonsils, thyroid and arm movements, and the middle and lower parts control the movements of the body and legs, and sexual function. The spinal cord is protected through the vertebral hole and is connected to the central nervous system in the skull.

The spine of the above structure is divided into cervical, thoracic, lumbar, and sacral, and a closer look is as follows.

Cervical spine (頸椎) (10) is the uppermost part of the spine, the back of the neck is the 7 bones that make up the skeleton of the neck. The cervical vertebrae are the smallest in the vertebrae group, and the unique structure of the 1st and 2nd cervical vertebrae enables movement such as rotation of the head and nods, and the seven bones are generally C-shaped and have a joint angle of 45 degrees. It is easier to move than other parts of the spine such as the lumbar spine. The upper part of the cervical spine is connected to the skull, and the lower part is connected to the thoracic vertebrae.

The thoracic (胸椎) (20) is a structure that occupies the middle part of the spine, and is located vertically in the upper rear part of the trunk, and consists of a total of 12 vertebrae. Unlike other vertebral structures, the thoracic spine has an articular surface connected to the head of the rib next to the vertebral body, and the transverse processes of the other thoracic vertebrae excluding the 11th and 12th thoracic vertebrae have the articular surface connected to the rib nodules. The thoracic spine close to the cervical spine has a shape similar to that of the cervical spine, and the thoracic spine close to the lumbar spine has a shape similar to that of the lumbar spine.

Lumbar (腰椎) (30) is the five vertebrae that extend from the thoracic vertebrae to the bottom, which refers to the mid-central waist of the back, and is the largest type of bone located at the lower part of the vertebrae to support the body weight. Compared to other vertebrae, the lumbar spine has excellent flexibility in flexion and extension. In particular, the 5th lumbar spine is a part that is connected to the stable sacrum and carries a lot of weight and moves a lot, and diseases such as spondylolysis and spondylolisthesis are frequent. Commonly referred to as a disc, the gap between each vertebrae of the lumbar spine is pressed and the gap is narrowed, or a disease in which pain is caused by compressing the spinal nerve due to the internal fluid escaping due to the deformation of the disc ring is also common in the 4th and 5th lumbar vertebrae. The best way to treat a disc in the lumbar spine is to widen the gap between the narrowed vertebrae and reinforce the muscles around it to reposition the drained fluid. When the fluid is in place as above, the pain disappears and the disc can be healed. .

The spinal cord passing through the vertebral hole exists up to the height of the first lumbar vertebra, and there is no spinal cord below it, and the nerve bundles descending from the upper spinal cord pass through. The lumbar spine plays an important role in the movement of the torso, supports the body weight, and enables the bending and stretching movements of the spine and rotational movements.

The sacrum (sacroiliac bone) 40 is located between the lumbar bone (waist bone) and the coccyx bone (tail bone) among the vertebrae of the human body, and forms a sacroiliac joint by meeting the hip bone, which is a flat bone, to the left and right. Chunchu is composed of 5 bones in infants, but 1 bone in adulthood. The sacral bone internally protects the organs located in the lower abdominal cavity and plays a role in dispersing the branches of the nerves descending along the spine, so when the sacrum is severely twisted or fractured, nerve damage can occur, which can be quite dangerous.

Muscles are attached around the spine, and the muscles support and protect the spine together with 7 ligaments made of elastic fibers to maintain the correct posture of the body and to enable movement. In addition, blood vessels are distributed in the spine, and spinal nerves are distributed, which transmits sensory information to the brain and transmits motor commands received from the brain to tissues. Overall, the shape of the spine is S-shaped, not straight, and forms a gentle curve, and it is connected by an elastic intervertebral disc between the vertebrae and the vertebrae, so when moving the body, it stretches according to the direction of movement and plays a role of absorbing shock.

As discussed above, the spine is a very important central structure that supports the body's torso, enables the body to move, and plays a central role in protecting the spinal cord and spinal nerves.

However, if the spine of the human body, which is responsible for these important functions, suffers an accident, maintains a bad posture due to an improper lifestyle over a long period of time, and weakens muscles due to lack of exercise, local pain may occur in the affected part of the spine. In addition, it may affect the related muscles, neural networks, blood circulation, etc., which may adversely affect the function of internal organs.

Various methods of chiropractic or orthodontic therapy have been performed conventionally in relation to various acute and chronic pains or diseases that appear on the spine or are not related to the spine, but are actually deeply related to the spine, as well as chiropractic and chiropractic. A variety of treatment devices or exercise devices have been developed and used for. Physical spinal therapy or exercise therapy, such as acupressure and correction, is a kind of alternative medicine that stimulates nerves, muscles, and skeleton as a whole instead of using drugs or performing surgery. Beyond the level of simple massage, with the recognition that disorders in the neuro-muscular-skeletal system may be the fundamental cause that affects the overall health of the human body, health is improved from the posture and shape of the spine and the stimulus and responses to the surrounding or related muscles. Diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of manual therapy or medical procedures are being conducted.

Looking at the prior patent inventions developed as a conventional technique for correcting the spine by acupressure, there are the following.

As a technology having a cervical massage function, Patent No. 10-1121577 (a cervical massage device having a neck massage function), Patent Publication No. 10-2017-0006499 (Acupressure device for cervical massage), Patent No. 10-1848645 ( Functional cervical spine relaxation device), Patent No. 10-1965626 (cervical spine correction device), Patent No. 10-1904119 (neck support functional cervical spine relaxation device), and Patent No. 10-2186814 (cervical spine correction device).

In addition, as a technology developed in the form of a pillow, Patent No. 10-1364588 (Pillow for improvement and treatment of spine structure), Patent No. 10-1564674 (Variable cervical pillow), Patent No. 10-1530368 (neck balance and cervical correction Cushion pillow that can be used) Patent No. 10-1572189 (cervical correction pillow for physical therapy), Patent No. 10-1665115 (functional cervical vertebrae pillow), Patent No. 10-2178568 (variable pillow for acupressure and comfortable sleep), patent No. 10-2165906 (cervical acupressure pillow), Patent No. 10-1364588 (improvement of spine structure and treatment pillow).

On the other hand, as technologies for acupressure correction of vertebrae other than the cervical spine, Patent No. 10-0823107 (Spine disk correction and self-healing device), Patent No. 10-1148091 (Spine correction device), and Patent No. 10-1675762 (Cube type spinal massager), Patent No. 10-1502058 (Spine orthodontic), Patent No. 10-1638601 (Portable spine movement symbol (former), Patent Publication No. 10-2017- 0006463 (Spine massage device), Patent No. 10-1712522 (spine correction wave and vibrator), Patent Publication No. 10-2018-0059305 (individual customized spine correction treatment device), Patent No. 10-2163678 (Physical therapy spine correction device), and the like.

Most of these techniques are for acupressure stimulation of the cervical spine or for individual acupressure stimulation of vertebrae other than the cervical spine (e.g., thoracic and lumbar vertebrae), and the cervical and thoracic, lumbar or sacral vertebrae are selectively selected by a single device. However, none have been developed as portable chiropractic devices that can variably correct acupressure.

2 is a view (A) showing the related nervous system for each part of the spine connected through the spine of the human body and (B) showing the related nervous system for each part of the cervical spine, and FIG. 3 is a view showing the cervical and large occipital muscles A view from the back of the neck (A) and a view showing the major occipital nerves and muscles (B), and FIG. 4 is a view showing the erect muscle, the main external muscle of the spine (A), and the main intrinsic muscle, multifidus and convolution. It is a drawing showing the muscle (B) and a drawing showing the iliopsoas muscle and the lumbosacral muscle around the pelvic bone (C).

The spinal nerve (脊髓神經) is a nervous system composed of 1 million nerve fibers that act as intermediate legs between the brain and peripheral nerves of each part of the body. 8 pairs of neck nerves, 12 pairs of chest nerves, 5 pairs of lumbar nerves, 5 sacral nerves It is composed of a pair and a pair of tail nerves, and the motor nerve that goes down from the brain is responsible for the motor functions of all the muscles of the limbs, and the sensory nerve that goes up from the sensory receptors at the end is responsible for the sensation of the whole body except the face. .

As such, the spine and spinal nerves of the human body are important parts that act as the central axis of the body, and many muscles around the spine surround the spine by several layers to protect it. In the front of the spine, thick iliopsoas (Iliopsoas) wrap around the front and both sides of the lumbar bone, passing through the pelvis to the groin, and at the back of the spine, the vertebrae erector 102 wraps the waist from the back and connects the spine and cervical vertebra upwards. Keep the spine straight.

On the other hand, there is a multifidus (104), which plays a major role in providing stability of the spine as several strands of muscle fibers are tightly attached around the spine as the main vertebral heart muscle (FIG. 4(B)). The multifidus muscle starts at the transverse process 106 of the vertebrae, passes between 2 to 4 vertebrae, and attaches to the spinous process 108 of the vertebrae. It fills most of the concave space formed between the and transverse projections.

As another deep spinal muscle, there are rotatores 110 (Fig. 4(B)), and the rotator cuffs fix the segments of the vertebrae and are firmly coupled to a large impact that is applied when lifting or jumping down heavy objects with the waist. It absorbs and holds the spinal segment firmly so that it does not shake or push. Spinal pain is caused by an abnormality in the erect muscle, which is an external muscle, as well as by weakening of these deep spinal muscles and causing the spine to become unstable. Once the vertebral heart muscle is weak, it does not recover easily.

The muscle that maintains the curve of the waist by combining the lumbar spine with the pelvis is called the iliac muscle 112, which is a muscle that supports the front of the spine. In addition, for stability of the lower back and the pelvis, the lumbar-shaped muscles 114 provide stability so that the lower back can move independently and flexibly on the pelvis at both sides of the lumbar part (Fig. 4(C)).

Figures 5 (A) to (E) are perspective photographs instead of drawings viewed from various angles of a portable chiropractic device 500 having different stimulation protrusion structures on the upper and lower surfaces according to the present invention, and Figure 6 is the present invention It is a representative perspective view of a portable chiropractic device 500 having different stimulation protrusion structures on the upper surface and the lower surface according to. As can be seen from these drawings substitute photos, the portable chiropractic device 500 having different stimulation protrusion structures on the upper and lower surfaces according to the present invention, has an arc of a predetermined curvature so that the central part can wrap around the back of the human neck. It is a curved concave portion 502 forming a, and a plurality of longitudinal protrusion rows 504 protruding in the longitudinal direction on the surface of the curved concave inlet are symmetrically formed side by side, so that these longitudinal protrusion rows form the cervical spine muscles. A bottom surface portion 508 of a left and right symmetrical structure, which is pressed in the longitudinal direction, and has a handle and horizontal mounting portion 506 having a predetermined width w1 and a thickness t on the left and right ends of the concave inlet; And a pair of outer floors 510 extending in the longitudinal direction, and a pair of inner floors 512 extending in the longitudinal direction with a predetermined distance inside the outer floors, and adjacent to the outer floor 510 The bottom portion of a left-right symmetrical structure having a pair of inner valleys 514 formed between each of the inner floors 512 and a central valley 516 formed in the center between the pair of inner floors 512 (508) an upper surface portion 518 on the opposite side; and a space surrounded by the bottom surface portion 508 and the upper surface portion 518 is formed integrally with a single material. In the above configuration, the outer floor 510 presses the vertebral transverse process (transverse process), while the vertebral multifidus muscle and rotator cuff located between the transverse process and spinous process are pinched between the outer floor 510 and the inner floor 512. And acupressure is corrected.

In addition, in the above configuration, a pair of horizontal protrusions 520 protruding horizontally across the inner side of the central valley 516 of the upper surface portion 518 may be further provided, and the pair of horizontal protrusions ( 502, as can be seen in Fig. 11 showing the cross-section, is formed of a vertical portion 522 and an inclined portion 524, the cross-section is generally a right-angled triangle, and the inclined concave portion between the pair of horizontal projections The spinous process end of the spine is received at 526 and acupressure is performed.

In addition, the present invention is in a state in which the bottom of the horizontal placement unit 506 is placed so as to touch the floor, and in addition to the method of lying down so that the user's back is in contact with the upper surface thereof, another practitioner holds the horizontal placement unit 506 with both hands while the user is prone. In addition to being able to be used in a manner of holding each on the user's back, waist, or sacrum, as shown in FIG. 5D, by penetrating the inside of the through hole 520 penetrating the inside of the horizontal placement unit 506 vertically. By placing a belt (not shown) to surround the waist or back, it is possible to obtain a body-removable chiropractic corrector that can be used by being stably fixed to a specific part of the waist or back.

In FIG. 6, reference numeral 528 denotes a protrusion for abdominal acupressure protruding in the longitudinal direction on at least one of the upper and lower two corner surfaces formed by meeting the bottom surface portion 508 and the upper surface portion 518. The portable chiropractic device 500 having different stimulating protrusion structures on the upper and lower surfaces according to the present invention includes vertebrae (cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, etc.) and surrounding muscles of the protrusions formed on the lower and upper surfaces. While the abdominal acupressure protrusion 528 is a technical composition for correction by acupressure, although acupressure is not directly related to the spine, the abdomen is a place where the internal organs are concentrated and is a region related to back pain and is metabolized by intestinal microbes. This is where 80% of hormones and immune substances are produced, so stimulation of the abdomen is beneficial. After applying the abdominal acupressure protrusion 528 to the abdomen, it is corrected by breathing exercises.

The portable chiropractic device 500 having different stimulation protrusion structures on the upper and lower surfaces according to the present invention is movable such as an assembly or a combined product or a rotating or emergent part driven by a spring, an eccentric cam, or a battery in its configuration. ) It does not contain elements, and is preferably made of a metal material such as natural resin, synthetic resin, plastic, a mixture of synthetic resin and stone powder, stone, wood, or aluminum. Since it is made of material, it can be used for a long time without problems such as damage or breakdown even if it is used to receive weight due to its function of use, so it has excellent durability.

The muscles of the posterior cervical spine are made up of many muscles, such as the cranial spine, tibialis ankle, multifidus, rotator cuff, sternocleidomastoid and upper trapezius. Typical symptoms associated with abnormalities in the posterior cervical muscles include neck disc, straight neck, cervical lordosis, cervical kyphosis, cervical scoliosis, turtle neck, pain or stiffness in the neck or shoulder, arm pain or numbness, and finger numbness. Dull sensation, weakness in the hand or arm, eye pain, optic nerve disorder, pain around the eyes, vision disorder, strabismus, headache, head blood circulation disorder, neck muscles, shoulders, stiff neck, pain in the upper arm , Shoulder bursa, and elbow pain. Looking more concretely, the upper cervical joint (occipital bone and cervical spine No. 1 and No. 2) is the main passage of the central and peripheral nerves and affects the nervous transmission system of the whole body a lot and is involved in systemic diseases, and the upper cervical joint is the cervical spine.
