Description

요추지지대{Lumbar Support}Lumbar Support {Lumbar Support}

본 발명은 요추지지대에 관한 것으로서, 보다 상세하게는 허리벨트에 결합하여 요추를 지지하는 데 사용하기 위한 지지대에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a lumbar support, and more particularly, to a support for use in supporting the lumbar spine by being coupled to a waist belt.

척추는 뇌에서 척추뼈 안으로 내려오는 척수를 보호하고 체중을 지탱하는 중요한 부분으로서 경추, 흉추, 요추, 천추, 미추로 구성된다.The spine is an important part that protects the spinal cord that descends from the brain into the vertebrae and supports body weight.

요추(Lumbar)는, 도7 및 도8에 도시된 바와 같이, 적층되어 있는 다섯 개의 척추뼈(210)와, 척추뼈(210) 사이에 배치되어 쿠션 역할을 하는 디스크(추간판, 221)와, 척추뼈(210)에 결합된 근육(미도시)과, 척추뼈(210)와 디스크(221)에 결합된 인대(미도시) 등을 갖고 있다.As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the lumbar spine includes five stacked vertebrae 210, a disk (intervertebral disc, 221) disposed between the vertebrae 210 and serving as a cushion, It has muscles (not shown) coupled to the vertebrae 210 and ligaments (not shown) coupled to the vertebrae 210 and the disc 221.

각 척추뼈(210)는 배쪽에 배치된 대략 원통모양의 척추체(211)와, 등쪽에 배치된‘V’자 형태의 후궁(212, lamina)과, 후궁(212)의 위와 아래 끝부분에 배치된 상관절돌기(213) 및 하관절돌기(214)와, 후궁(212)에서 등쪽으로 연장된 극돌기(215)와, 후궁(212)과 척추체(211) 사이에 배치된 횡돌기(216) 등을 갖고 있다.Each vertebra 210 is disposed on the approximately cylindrical vertebral body 211 disposed on the ventral side, the 'V' shaped lamina 212 disposed on the back, and the upper and lower ends of the lamina 212. The superior articular process 213 and the inferior articular process 214, the spinous process 215 extending dorsally from the posterior arch 212, and the transverse process 216 disposed between the posterior arch 212 and the vertebral body 211, etc. I have it.

척추체(211)와 후궁(212)은 척추경(217)에 의해 서로 연결되어 손가락 굵기의 척추관(217)을 형성한다.The vertebral body 211 and the posterior arch 212 are connected to each other by a pedicle 217 to form a spinal canal 217 about the thickness of a finger.

척추관(217)은 뇌와 말초신경의 중간다리 역할을 하는 척수가 통과하는 경로를 제공한다.The spinal canal 217 provides a path through which the spinal cord, which serves as an intermediate bridge between the brain and peripheral nerves, passes.

척추뼈(210)가 적층될 때 상측 척추뼈(210)의 하관절돌기(214)와 하측 척추뼈의 상관절돌기(213)는 면접촉하고, 이에 따라 척추뼈(210) 사이에는 후관절이 형성된다.When the vertebrae 210 are stacked, the inferior articular processes 214 of the upper vertebrae 210 and the superior articular process 213 of the lower vertebrae come into surface contact, and thus a facet joint is formed between the vertebrae 210. is formed

척추체(211)와 후관절 사이에는 추간공(218)이 형성된다.An intervertebral foramen 218 is formed between the vertebral body 211 and the facet joint.

추간공(218)을 통해 척수에서 분지된 신경근이 좌우측으로 빠져나온다.Through the intervertebral foramen 218, the nerve roots branched from the spinal cord exit to the left and right.

다섯 개의 척추뼈(210)는 시상면에서 볼 때 배쪽으로 오목하게 만곡되도록 적층된다.The five vertebrae 210 are stacked so as to be curved concavely ventrally when viewed in the sagittal plane.

이러한 구성을 갖는 요추는 척추뼈(210)의 양측에 상하방향을 따라 배치된 척추기립근에 의해 굽혀지거나 펴질 수 있다.The lumbar vertebrae having this configuration can be bent or stretched by the erector spinae muscles disposed along the up and down directions on both sides of the vertebrae 210 .

한편 요추는 외상, 퇴행 등의 원인으로 불안정해져 척추전방전위증, 척추관협착증, 척추분리증 등의 질환이 발생한다.Meanwhile, the lumbar vertebrae become unstable due to trauma and degeneration, resulting in diseases such as spondylolisthesis, spinal stenosis, and spondylolysis.

척추전방전위증은 위 척추뼈(210)가 아래 척추뼈(210)보다 배 쪽으로 밀려나가면서 상하 척추뼈가 어긋난 상태의 질환이다.Spondylolisthesis is a disease in which the upper and lower vertebrae 210 are displaced while the upper vertebrae 210 are pushed toward the stomach than the lower vertebrae 210.

척추관협착증은 척추체(211)에서 퇴행성 골극이 척추관(217)의 안쪽으로 튀어나오거나 척추관(217) 뒤쪽에서 후관절과 인대가 비후되어 척추관(217)이 좁아진 상태의 질환이다.Spinal stenosis is a disease in which the spinal canal 217 is narrowed because a degenerative osteophyte in the vertebral body 211 protrudes inward of the spinal canal 217 or facet joints and ligaments thicken at the back of the spinal canal 217.

척추분리증은 후관절에 결손이 발생한 상태의 질환이다.Spondylolysis is a disease in which facet joints are defective.

상하 척추뼈(210)가 어긋나거나 척추관(217)이 좁아지거나 후관절에 결손이 발생하는 등의 원인으로 요추가 불안정해지면, 척수나 신경근이 척추뼈(210)에 의해 압박을 받게되고 간헐적 파행 등과 같은 여러가지 증상이 나타나게 된다. 간헐적 파행은 걸으면 다리가 아프고 저리며, 걸음을 멈추면 상태가 좋아지는 것이 반복되는 증상을 의미한다.When the lumbar vertebrae become unstable due to misalignment of the upper and lower vertebrae 210, narrowing of the spinal canal 217, or defects in facet joints, the spinal cord or nerve roots are compressed by the vertebrae 210 and intermittent claudication, etc. Many of the same symptoms appear. Intermittent claudication refers to repeated symptoms of pain and numbness in the legs when walking, and improvement when the person stops walking.

위와 같이 요추의 불안정성에 따른 문제점을 개선하기 위해 요추지지대가 안출되어 사용되고 있다.As described above, in order to improve the problems caused by the instability of the lumbar spine, a lumbar support has been devised and used.

도9와 도10은 각각 종래 요추지지대의 사시도이다.9 and 10 are perspective views of a conventional lumbar support, respectively.

종래의 요추지지대는, 이들 도면에 도시된 바와 같이, 요추지지부(110)와, 요추지지부(110)의 양측에 하나씩 배치된 옆구리지지부(120)를 갖고 있다.As shown in these drawings, a conventional lumbar support has a lumbar support 110 and side support 120 disposed one by one on both sides of the lumbar support 110.

요추지지부(110)는 대략 직사각형 블록형태의 요추지지바디부(111)와, 요추지지바디부(111)의 배면에 결합된 복수의 요추지지부홀더(112)를 갖고 있다.The lumbar support part 110 has a substantially rectangular block shape lumbar support body 111 and a plurality of lumbar support holders 112 coupled to the rear surface of the lumbar support body 111 .

요추지지바디부(111)는 내부에 다수의 에어셀이 형성된다. 각 에어셀에는 공기주입구(미도시)를 통해 공기가 주입될 수 있다.The lumbar support body 111 has a plurality of air cells formed therein. Air may be injected into each air cell through an air inlet (not shown).

각 요추지지부홀더(112)에는 좌우방향을 따라 요추벨트삽입공(112a)이 관통 형성된다.Lumbar belt insertion holes 112a are formed through each lumbar support holder 112 along the left and right directions.

각 옆구리지지부(120)는 짧은 블록형태로 형성된 옆구리지지바디부(121)와, 옆구리지지바디부(121)의 일측면에 결합된 옆구리지지부홀더(122)를 갖고 있다.Each side support portion 120 has a side support body portion 121 formed in a short block shape and a side support portion holder 122 coupled to one side of the side support body portion 121.

옆구리지지바디부(121)는 내부에 다수의 에어셀이 형성된다. 각 에어셀에는 공기주입구(미도시)를 통해 공기가 주입될 수 있다.The side support body 121 has a plurality of air cells formed therein. Air may be injected into each air cell through an air inlet (not shown).

옆구리지지부홀더(122)에는 좌우방향을 따라 옆구리벨트삽입공(122a)이 관통 형성된다.Side belt insertion holes 122a are formed through the side support holder 122 along the left and right directions.

전술한 구성을 갖는 종래의 요추지지대를 사용하는 방법을 설명하면 다음과 같다.A method of using a conventional lumbar support having the above configuration will be described as follows.

먼저 요추지지바디부(111)와 옆구리지지바디부(121)의 에어셀에 공기를 주입한다.First, air is injected into the air cells of the lumbar support body 111 and the side support body 121 .

다음에 요추벨트삽입공(112a)과 옆구리벨트삽입공(122a)을 통과하도록 허리벨트를 요추지지대에 결합한다.Next, the waist belt is coupled to the lumbar support so as to pass through the lumbar belt insertion hole 112a and the side belt insertion hole 122a.

다음에 요추지지바디부(111)가 등에 접촉하고 옆구리지지바디부(121)가 옆구리에 접촉하도록 허리벨트(300)를 허리에 맨다. 허리벨트(300)를 맨 상태에서 요추지지바디부(111)는 요추를 가로지르게 된다.Next, the waist belt 300 is worn around the waist so that the lumbar support body 111 contacts the back and the side support body 121 contacts the side. When the waist belt 300 is worn, the lumbar support body 111 crosses the lumbar spine.

요추지지바디부(111)는 허리벨트(300)를 맨 상태에서 요추 전체를 받쳐주고 요추가 신체의 전후방향을 따라 급격하게 휘어지는 것을 방지하는 작용을 한다.The lumbar support body 111 supports the entire lumbar spine while wearing the waist belt 300 and serves to prevent the lumbar spine from rapidly bending along the front-back direction of the body.

옆구리지지바디부(121)는 허리벨트(300)를 맨 상태에서 신체를 옆으로 젖히는 동작시 옆구리 전체를 받쳐주고 요추가 신체의 좌우방향을 따라 급격하게 휘어지는 것을 방지하는 작용을 한다.The side support body 121 supports the entire side when the body is tilted sideways while wearing the waist belt 300 and prevents the lumbar spine from rapidly bending along the left and right directions of the body.

그런데 종래의 요추지지대에 따르면, 요추지지바디부(111)의 내부에 에어셀이 형성되어 있고 허리벨트(300)를 맨 상태에서 요추지지바디부(111)가 요추를 가로지르도록 배치되기 때문에 척추뼈가 좌우방향(일측 옆구리에서 타측 옆구리로 향하는 방향) 또는 전후방향(배에서 등으로 향하는 방향)을 따라 이동하는 것을 제한할 수 없고 이에 따라 척추뼈(210)의 적층상태를 안정적으로 유지할 수 없고, 척추뼈(210)가 좌우방향을 따라 어긋나 있더라도 그 어긋난 정도를 감소시킬 수 없다는 문제점이 있었다.However, according to the conventional lumbar support, since the air cell is formed inside the lumbar support body 111 and the lumbar support body 111 is arranged to cross the lumbar spine while the waist belt 300 is worn, the vertebrae cannot be restricted from moving along the left-right direction (direction from one side to the other side) or front-back direction (direction from the stomach to the back), and thus the stacked state of the vertebrae 210 cannot be stably maintained, Even if the vertebrae 210 are displaced along the left and right directions, there is a problem in that the degree of displacement cannot be reduced.

척추뼈(210)의 적층상태가 안정적으로 유지되지 않거나 척추뼈의 어긋난 정도가 감소되지 않으면 척추뼈에 의해 척수와 신경근이 압박받게 될 가능성이 커지게 된다.If the stacked state of the vertebrae 210 is not stably maintained or the misalignment of the vertebrae is not reduced, the possibility that the spinal cord and nerve roots are compressed by the vertebrae increases.

이러한 문제점은 척추관이 좁아진 상태에서 더 커진다(척추관이 좁아진 상태에서 척추뼈가 조금만 어긋나게 되더라도 척수와 신경근이 큰 압박을 받게 됨).This problem increases in a state in which the spinal canal is narrowed (even if the vertebrae are slightly displaced in a state in which the spinal canal is narrowed, the spinal cord and nerve roots are subjected to great pressure).

관련 선행문헌으로는 대한민국 등록실용신안공보 20-0478751호(등록일자: 2015년 11월 06일, 고안의 명칭: 요추 지지대)가 있으며, 상기 선행 문헌에는 위에서 설명한 종래의 요추지지대에 관한 기술이 개시되어 있다.As related prior literature, there is Republic of Korea Utility Model Registration No. 20-0478751 (registration date: November 06, 2015, name of design: lumbar support), and the above-mentioned prior art discloses the technology related to the conventional lumbar support described above. has been

따라서 본 발명의 목적은, 척추뼈의 적층상태를 안정적으로 유지할 수 있고, 척추뼈가 좌우방향을 따라 어긋나 있는 경우 그 어긋난 정도를 감소시킬 수 있도록 한 요추지지대를 제공하는 것이다.Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a lumbar support that can stably maintain the stacked state of vertebrae and reduce the degree of displacement when vertebrae are displaced along the left and right directions.

상기 목적은, 본 발명에 따라, 허리벨트에 결합하여 사용되는 요추지지대에 있어서, 벨트삽입공이 좌우방향을 따라 관통형성되어 있는 요추지지바디부와; 상기 요추지지바디부 중 상기 벨트삽입공에 대향하는 일면에 상하방향을 따라 도랑 형태로 형성된 극돌기지지요형부를 포함하는 것을 특징으로 한다.According to the present invention, in the lumbar support used in combination with a waist belt, the lumbar support body portion through which the belt insertion hole is formed along the left and right directions; Characterized in that it comprises a spinous process support shape formed in the shape of a groove along the vertical direction on one side of the lumbar support body facing the belt insertion hole.

여기서 척추뼈에 의해 척수와 신경근이 압박받는 상태를 더욱더 개선할 수 있도록, 상기 극돌기지지요형부는 원호 단면을 이루도록 형성되는 것이 바람직하다.Here, to further improve the state in which the spinal cord and nerve roots are compressed by the vertebrae, it is preferable that the spinous process support portion is formed to form an arcuate cross section.

그리고 척추뼈의 적층상태를 안정적으로 유지할 수 있게 되고 척추뼈가 전후방향을 따라 어긋나 있는 경우 그 어긋난 정도를 감소시킬 수 있도록, 상기 요추지지바디부 중 상기 벨트삽입공에 대향하는 다른 일면에 돌출 형성되고 상단에 평면형태의 평면가압면을 갖는 돌출지지부를 더 포함하는 것이 바람직하다.In addition, a protrusion is formed on the other side of the lumbar support body facing the belt insertion hole so that the stacked state of the vertebrae can be stably maintained and the degree of misalignment of the vertebrae can be reduced when the vertebrae are displaced along the anteroposterior direction. And it is preferable to further include a protruding support having a flat pressing surface in the form of a plane at the top.

또한 척추뼈에 의해 척수와 신경근이 압박받는 상태를 더욱더 개선할 수 있도록, 상기 돌출지지부는 상기 평면가압면의 좌우 연부에서 각각 하향하는 곡면형태로 연장 형성된 한 쌍의 곡면가압면을 포함하는 것이 바람직하다.In addition, in order to further improve the state in which the spinal cord and nerve roots are compressed by the vertebrae, the protruding support portion preferably includes a pair of curved pressing surfaces extending downward from the left and right edges of the flat pressing surfaces, respectively. do.

따라서 본 발명에 따르면, 요추지지바디부의 일면에 상하방향을 따라 도랑 형태로 극돌기지지요형부를 형성하여 극돌기 양측의 척추기립근을 잡아줌으로써, 척추뼈가 좌우방향(일측 옆구리에서 타측 옆구리로 향하는 방향)을 따라 이동하는 것을 제한하여 척추뼈의 적층상태를 안정적으로 유지할 수 있고, 척추뼈가 좌우방향을 따라 어긋나 있는 경우 그 어긋난 정도를 감소시킬 수 있게 된다.Therefore, according to the present invention, by forming a spinous process support shape in the form of a groove along one side of the lumbar support body along the vertical direction to hold the erector spinae muscles on both sides of the spinous process, the vertebrae move in the left and right directions (direction from one side to the other side) It is possible to stably maintain the stacked state of the vertebrae by restricting movement along the vertebrae, and when the vertebrae are displaced along the left and right directions, the degree of misalignment can be reduced.

척추뼈의 적층상태가 안정적으로 유지되거나 척추뼈의 어긋난 정도가 감소하면, 척추뼈에 의해 척수와 신경근이 압박받는 상태를 개선할 수 있게 된다.When the stacked state of the vertebrae is stably maintained or the degree of misalignment of the vertebrae is reduced, it is possible to improve the condition in which the spinal cord and nerve roots are compressed by the vertebrae.

이러한 효과는 척추관이 좁아진 상태에서 더 커진다(척추관이 좁아진 상태에서 척추뼈가 조금만 어긋나게 되더라도 척수와 신경근이 큰 압박을 받게 됨).This effect is greater when the spinal canal is narrowed.

전술한 구성을 갖는 본 발명의 실시예에 따른 요추지지대를 사용하는 방법을 도5 및 도6을 참조하여 설명하면 다음과 같다. A method of using the lumbar support according to an embodiment of the present invention having the above configuration will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6.

먼저 벨트삽입공(11a)을 통해 극돌기지지요형부(12)가 신체쪽으로 향하도록 요추지지대를 허리벨트(300)에 결합한다.First, the lumbar support is coupled to the waist belt 300 so that the spinous process support portion 12 is directed toward the body through the belt insertion hole 11a.

다음에 극돌기지지요형부(12)의 중심선이 극돌기(215)에 정렬되도록 허리벨트(300)를 허리에 맨다. 허리벨트(300)를 맨 상태에서 요추지지바디부(11)는 척추기립근을 가압하게 된다.Next, the waist belt 300 is worn around the waist so that the center line of the spinous process supporting portion 12 is aligned with the spinous process 215. When the waist belt 300 is worn, the lumbar support body 11 presses the erector spinae muscles.

요추지지바디부(11)가 척추기립근을 가압하면 극돌기지지요형부(12)는 극돌기 양측의 척추기립근을 잡아주고, 이에 따라 척추뼈(210)가 좌우방향(일측 옆구리에서 타측 옆구리로 향하는 방향)을 따라 이동하는 것을 제한한다.When the lumbar support body 11 presses the erector spinae muscle, the spinous process support shape part 12 holds the erector spinae muscle on both sides of the spinous process, and accordingly, the vertebra 210 moves in the left and right direction (direction from one side to the other side) Restrict movement along

한편 본원발명의 요추지지대는 돌출지지부(13)가 신체쪽으로 향하도록 요추지지대를 허리벨트(300)에 결합하여 사용할 수 있다.Meanwhile, the lumbar support of the present invention may be used by coupling the lumbar support to the waist belt 300 so that the protruding support 13 is directed toward the body.

신체쪽을 향한 돌출지지부(13)는 척추뼈(210)를 받쳐주고 이에 따라 척추뼈(210)가 전후방향(배에서 등으로 향하는 방향)을 따라 이동하는 것을 제한하여 척추뼈(210)의 적층상태를 안정적으로 유지할 수 있게 되고 척추뼈(210)가 전후방향을 따라 어긋나 있는 경우 그 어긋난 정도를 감소시킬 수 있게 된다.The protruding support portion 13 toward the body supports the vertebrae 210 and thereby restricts the movement of the vertebrae 210 in the front-back direction (direction from the stomach to the back), thereby stacking the vertebrae 210. It is possible to stably maintain the state, and when the vertebrae 210 are displaced along the anteroposterior direction, it is possible to reduce the displacement.

상술한 바와 같이 본 발명의 실시예에 따르면, 요추지지바디부(11)의 일면에 상하방향을 따라 도랑 형태로 극돌기지지요형부(12)를 형성하여 극돌기 양측의 척추기립근을 잡아줌으로써, 척추뼈(210)가 좌우방향(일측 옆구리에서 타측 옆구리로 향하는 방향)을 따라 이동하는 것을 제한하여 척추뼈(210)의 적층상태를 안정적으로 유지할 수 있고, 척추뼈(210)가 좌우방향을 따라 어긋나 있는 경우 그 어긋난 정도를 감소시킬 수 있게 된다.As described above, according to the embodiment of the present invention, by forming the spinous process support portion 12 in the form of a groove along the vertical direction on one surface of the lumbar support body 11 to hold the erector spinae muscles on both sides of the spinous process, the vertebrae ( 210) in the left and right direction (direction from one flank to the other flank), the stacked state of the vertebrae 210 can be stably maintained, and the vertebrae 210 are misaligned along the left and right directions. The extent of the discrepancy can be reduced.

척추뼈(210)의 적층상태가 안정적으로 유지되거나 척추뼈(210)의 어긋난 정도가 감소하면, 척추뼈(210)에 의해 척수와 신경근이 압박받는 상태를 개선할 수 있게 된다.When the lamination state of the vertebrae 210 is stably maintained or the degree of misalignment of the vertebrae 210 is reduced, a state in which the spinal cord and nerve roots are compressed by the vertebrae 210 can be improved.

이러한 효과는 척추관이 좁아진 상태에서 더 커진다(척추관이 좁아진 상태에서 척추뼈가 조금만 어긋나게 되더라도 척수와 신경근이 큰 압박을 받게 됨).This effect is greater when the spinal canal is narrowed.

그리고 극돌기지지요형부(12)를 원호 단면을 이루도록 형성하여 척추기립근이 극돌기(215) 양측을 대칭적으로 잡아줌으로써, 척추뼈(210)에 의해 척수와 신경근이 압박받는 상태를 더욱더 개선할 수 있게 된다.In addition, the spinous process supporting portion 12 is formed to form an arcuate cross section so that the erector spinae muscles symmetrically hold both sides of the spinous process 215, thereby further improving the condition in which the spinal cord and nerve roots are compressed by the vertebrae 210. .

또한 요추지지바디부(11)의 다른 일면에 평면형태의 평면가압면(13a)을 갖는 돌출지지부(13)를 추가하여 척추뼈(210)를 받쳐주도록 함으로써, 척추뼈(210)가 전후방향(배에서 등으로 향하는 방향)을 따라 이동하는 것을 제한하여 척추뼈(210)의 적층상태를 안정적으로 유지할 수 있게 되고 척추뼈(210)가 전후방향을 따라 어긋나 있는 경우 그 어긋난 정도를 감소시킬 수 있게 된다.In addition, by adding a protruding support 13 having a flat pressure surface 13a on the other side of the lumbar support body 11 to support the vertebrae 210, the vertebrae 210 move forward and backward ( It is possible to stably maintain the stacked state of the vertebrae 210 by limiting movement along the direction from the stomach to the back), and to reduce the degree of misalignment when the vertebrae 210 are displaced along the anteroposterior direction. do.

또한 돌출지지부(13)에 평면가압면의 좌우 연부에서 각각 하향하는 곡면형태의 곡면가압면(13b)을 연장 형성하여 돌출지지부(13)와 척추뼈 부근과의 접촉면적을 증가시킴으로써, 척추뼈(210)에 의해 척수와 신경근이 압박받는 상태를 더욱더 개선할 수 있게 된다.In addition, by extending and forming a curved pressing surface 13b downward from the left and right edges of the flat pressing surface on the protruding support part 13 to increase the contact area between the protruding support part 13 and the vicinity of the vertebrae, the vertebrae ( 210), it is possible to further improve the condition in which the spinal cord and nerve roots are compressed.
