Description

Functional characteristic cervical brace cadence the Traction the treatment is possible}

The present invention relates to a functional cervical brace capable of traction treatment, and more particularly, it is convenient to carry and convenient and reliable traction operation of the cervical spine, as well as the laryngeal bone regardless of the size and shape of the wearer's laryngeal bone. The present invention relates to a functional cervical brace capable of high-quality, high-quality traction treatment, which is closely attached to the body, so that the fit is perfectly worn and that the local cervical region of the cervical spine can be sufficiently performed during or after towing.

In the spine, the cervical supports the skull and is one of the most important parts of the human body because the spinal cord from the brain begins in the cervical. Damage of the human body is very large.

Diseases and injuries of the cervical spine, one of the important parts of the human body, are largely degenerative diseases that occur in older people and whiplash injury most easily encountered in accidents or injuries.

Here, the degenerative disease that occurs frequently in the elderly may be caused by imbalance of muscles or wrong recovery by external force for a long time, such that the balance of the joint is broken and the weight is loaded on one side, or the shock absorption is not good. It causes continuous damage and damage to the joint surface.

The first of the most degenerative diseases is the balance within the spinal segment, resulting in a narrowing of the Vertebral Body, resulting in continuous compression, which causes the pressure of the Annulus Fibrosus of the Intervertebral Disc. Herniated nucleus pulposus (HNP), which causes unbearable tearing

When herniated nucleus pulposus (HNP) develops, the nucleus pulposus flows out between the annulus fibrosus, damaging the nerve root (Nerve Root) from the spinal cord. Fed up complains of symptoms.

More serious, however, over time, the spinal cord and the deeper nucleus (Nucleus Pulposus) squeezed by degenerative changes in the Vertebral Body, resulting in direct spinal cord compression. to be.

In general, the nervous system is divided into the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). In the case of the above-described intervertebral disc degeneration (HNP), the ejected nucleus (Nucleus Pulposus) Endoscopic or laser removal of nucleus pulposus erupted with symptoms caused by touching (Nerve Root) can eliminate symptoms and improve the disease, but in the case of central nervous system (CNS) damage It is very difficult to treat if the central nervous system (CNS) is stimulated due to chronic degenerative disease because it is not recovered at all.

 In particular, when the degenerative change is severe, bone spurs are formed in the Vertebral Body, and when the spinal cord is compressed, various spinal cord disorders occur, and the sharp part of the bone spurs is the spinal cord ( If the spinal cord is injured, paralysis may occur at the lower part of the wound, which will not recover.

In order to prevent such degenerative degeneration, maintaining the proper muscle tension and balancing the agonist muscle and the antagonist muscle is very important, and maintaining the proper spacing of the spinal segment is essential.

However, humans are forced to exert constant pressure on their spine and lower extremity joints under the influence of gravity.

Therefore, proper exercise and rest and posture and movement using antigravity muscles are necessary.

And if the spacing of the spinal segment (Spinal Segment) is narrowed, it is necessary to increase the normal spacing treatment.

Meanwhile, whiplash injury, which is most easily encountered in the above-mentioned accidents and injuries, is frequently seen in traffic accidents, which are rapidly increasing due to rapid and excessive population concentration and industrial expansion and development. Increasing the number of traffic accidents also led to an increase in the aftermath of traffic accidents. This is because many of the symptoms caused by traffic accidents remain unresolved after a certain period of time.

First aid at the scene of a traffic accident, the first principle is the confirmation of breathing, the second principle is the fixation of the head and neck.

This is because when the injured person's exact damage is not known, the first-aider incorrectly moves the injured person and the bones of the spine touch the spinal cord or the spinal artery, causing death or limb paralysis. It can cause plegia).

Therefore, the cervical spine is the first priority when the accident site or injury of the cervical spine is suspected, and the cervical fixation is essential for rehabilitation even after surgery or treatment.

And because soft tissues around the spine are also contractile structures, cervical braces are essential to reduce pressure in the spine due to spinal structures in order to maintain normal traction after surgery.

Accordingly, cervical braces are used to treat the spine itself with continuous traction in connection with a narrowing of the spinal segment due to the degenerative disease or whiplash injury caused by an accident or injury. ).

Most of the portable traction products currently on the market are products that use air pressure.

In the case of the product using the air pressure may be comfortable in portability, the actual traction force and the fixing force to the inevitably falls.

In addition, even if the patient with the same disease, each individual's specificity and structural problems of the spine can not help but different, there are bound to solve this problem with a uniform product using air pressure.

In the case of muscles in the structure around the spine, spinal segments increase when general traction is performed, but the length of the muscle fiber increases together. Artificially stretching in the absence of muscle movement does not increase the motor unit in the nerve roots and does not recognize the length of the muscle fiber in the cerebellum. can not do it.

Therefore, muscle fibers that have been stretched due to artificial traction do not operate during movement.

In other words, the possibility of relapse after treatment is very high because shortened muscles do not prevent the continuous pressure of the spinal segment.

Therefore, the best method is rehabilitation, which induces normal operation in a state where the pressure of the spinal segment is lowered (that is, in the state of traction).

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems occurring in the conventional cervical vertebra,

 It is convenient to carry and the traction of cervical spine is convenient, but of course,

Even if the wearer's physical condition (especially in the form of the occipital bone) is different, the fit of the occipital bone can be closely adhered to, and the fit is good.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a functional cervical brace for high-quality, high-quality traction treatment that can fully perform local bowel movements of the cervical spine during or after towing.

Functional cervical brace for the traction treatment of the present invention for achieving the above object is basically seated on the shoulder portion around the neck of the wearer is provided with a band hook ring on the front outer surface, both sides of the traction adjustment lever and its shaft A shoulder support coupled to the pinion to rotate and a lock button intermittent to rotate the pinion;

The upper part of the shoulder support to support the wearer's chin and the front outer surface is provided with a hook hook for the hook, the lower side of the rake bar installed vertically fixed to both ends teeth coupled to the pinion provided on the shoulder support to rotate the pinion And according to the bib up and down lifting up and down;

The end of the upper fixing band of the upper and lower fixing bands which are located at the rear of the shoulder support and the jaw butt and are coupled to the band insertion holes formed at both upper and lower ends thereof are coupled to the band hook ring provided at the lower jaw, The end of the fixing band is characterized in that it comprises a rear support plate coupled to the band hanger ring provided on the shoulder support is in close contact with the wearer's larynx and cervical spine when tightening the fixing band.

Functional cervical brace for the traction treatment of the present invention is very convenient because it is able to pull the cervical vertebrae while lifting and lowering the chin support simply by a very simple operation of rotating the traction adjustment levers provided at both ends of the shoulder support. Do.

In addition, it is possible to continuously maintain the state of toughness, so it can be used with confidence.

Meanwhile, the rear support plate supporting the occipital bone of the wearer is composed of a dual structure consisting of a main support plate and an auxiliary support plate provided in front of the main support plate.

Since the auxiliary support plate is configured to move forward and backward when the adjustment bolt screwed to the main support plate is rotated, the auxiliary support plate can be closely adhered to the laryngeal bone and cervical spine using the adjustment bolt.

In addition, the upper and lower ends of the auxiliary support plate is composed of a plurality of tension pieces, so even if the wearer's physical condition (size and protrusion of the laryngeal bone) is different, the tension piece is elastically bent or widened to fix the occipital bone more closely There are advantages to be given.

Therefore, when the functional cervical brace for the traction treatment of the present invention is used, the pressure is reduced in the spinal segment or whiplash injury (that is, in the state of traction). Rehabilitation to induce motion is most convenient and complete.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The present invention is a shoulder support 100 that is basically seated on the shoulder portion around the neck of the wearer as shown in Figures 1 to 6, and

Located on the upper portion of the shoulder support 100 and the jaw rest 200 to support the wearer's chin,

Located behind the shoulder support 100 and the jaw rest 200 is divided into a rear support plate 300 that is closely supported on the occipital bone and cervical spine of the wearer.

Here, looking at the shoulder support 100, the front and the outer surface is provided with a band hook ring 110, both ends are coupled to the pinion 122 and the rotation pin 121 and its shaft 121 and The lock button 130 for controlling the rotation of the pinion 122 is provided.

In addition, looking at the bib 200, the front and outer surface is provided with a band hook ring 210, both ends are vertically the end of the rake bar 220 by a fixing pin, such as a fixing pin or fixing bolt It is fixedly installed, but the lower side of the leg bar 220 is coupled to the pinion 122 provided in the shoulder support (100).

Therefore, by rotating the pinion 122 coupled to the shaft 121 by turning the traction adjustment lever 120 provided on both sides of the shoulder support 100 by the configuration as described above, the pinion and the teeth coupled The bar moves up and down.

At this time, since the upper end is fixed to both ends of the chin butt 200, as a result the wearer's chin butt 200 is to be raised and lowered to adjust the traction length of the cervical spine.

Meanwhile, looking at the rear support plate 300, band insertion holes 311 and 312 are formed at both upper and lower ends thereof, and upper band insertion holes 311 among the band insertion holes 311 and 312 are formed on the upper side. Fixed band 331 is coupled,

The lower fixing band 332 is coupled to the lower band insertion hole 312.

The rear support plate 300 is such that the end of the upper fixing band 331 when the wear of the present invention is fastened to the band hook ring 210 provided in the jaw rest 200, the lower of the fixing band 332 The end is coupled to the band hook ring 110 provided in the shoulder support (100).

Accordingly, when the fixing bands 331, 332 are tightened, the rear support plate 300 is pulled forward to be in close contact with the occipital bone and cervical spine of the wearer.

On the other hand, the rear support plate 300 is made of a dual structure consisting of a main support plate 310 of a rigid material, and the auxiliary support plate 320 formed separately in the front of the main support plate 310 and formed of a thin plate to which elasticity is applied. there is,

At this time, the main support plate 310 is screwed so that the front end of the adjustment bolt 330 is spun inward when rotating, and the front end of the adjustment bolt 330 is fixed to the auxiliary support plate 320.

Therefore, when the adjustment bolt 330 is rotated, the auxiliary support plate 320 is to be moved forward, backward.

Here, the upper end and the lower end of the auxiliary support plate 320 constituting the rear support plate 300 has a plurality of tension pieces 321 are formed by cutting several parts up and down.

Therefore, the tension piece 321 is in close contact with the laryngeal bone as the tension piece 321 elastically flexes or opens depending on the size and protrusion of the occipital bone of the wearer.

Therefore, even if the wearer's physical condition (in particular, the shape of the occipital bone) is different, it will be able to closely adhere to the occipital bone and the case part.

On the other hand, the present invention can be configured to further reduce the pressure or burden applied to the shoulder and jaw portion of the wearer by further forming a foam padding member 10 on the inner surface of the shoulder support 100 and the chin butt 200 There is also.

It describes the state of use of the functional cervical vertebrae assisted traction treatment of the present invention configured as described above.

First, a shoulder support 100 is placed on the shoulder of the wearer (cervical spine), the jaw of the wearer is placed on the jaw of the wearer, and the back support plate 300 is placed on the occipital bone of the wearer.

Then one end is coupled to each of the band insertion holes 311 and 312 formed at the upper and lower sides of the rear support plate 300, and the other end of the band hanger ring 210 formed at the jaw rest 200, respectively. And carefully tighten each of the upper fixing band 331 and the lower fixing band 332 which is coupled to the band hanger ring 110 provided in the shoulder support (100).

In this way, the rear support plate 300 is in close contact with the occipital bone and cervical spine of the wearer.

In this way, after completing the initial wearing state safely to the wearer functional cervical brace for the traction treatment of the present invention,

First of all, according to the physical condition of the wearer (particularly, in the form of the occipital bone), the back support plate 300 does not have a close contact with the occipital bone. In order to prevent such a situation, the auxiliary support plate 320 fixed at the tip of the adjustment bolt 330 is advanced by rotating the adjustment bolt 330 screwed to the main support plate 310.

In this way, the auxiliary support plate 320 is in close contact with the laryngeal bone and the cervical spine. At this time, the upper and lower ends of the auxiliary support plate 320 are composed of a plurality of tension pieces 321, so that the size of the occipital bone of the wearer and The tension piece 321 is elastically bent or spread depending on the degree of protruding to be perfectly in close contact with the laryngeal bone.

In this state, the towing of the cervical spine may be performed.

That is, by operating the locking buttons 130 provided at both ends of the shoulder support 100 to release the locking projection 131 from the teeth of the pinion 122 by the traction adjustment lever 120 Rotate

Then, the pinion 122 coupled to the shaft 121 of the traction control lever 120 is rotated, and the rack bar 220 coupled to the pinion 122 is raised.

Therefore, while lifting the upper jaw butt 200 is fixed to the upper end of the recreation bar 220 is pushed up the occipital bone to the upper side to traction the cervical spine.

As such, when the towing length (strength) of the cervical spine is rotated by rotating the towing adjustment lever 120, the locking protrusion 130 is operated to couple the locking protrusion 131 to the teeth of the pinion 122 to create a locked state.

The pinion 122 is then no longer rotated so that the cervical spine is maintained in the towed state continuously.

Therefore, when the functional cervical brace for the traction treatment of the present invention is used, the pressure is reduced in the spinal segment or whiplash injury (that is, in the state of traction). Rehabilitation to induce motion is most convenient and complete.
