Description

This useful model relates to medicine in the section of neurology and neurorehabilitation and can be used in the departments of neurorehabilitation of neurological and neurosurgical clinics during classes on the development of finger movements in patients with a neurological clinic.

Violation of the movements of the fingers occurs due to various organic brain lesions associated with injuries, poisoning, infections, vascular diseases of the brain.

Various devices and simulators are used to develop impaired finger movements.

So, from the existing level of technology, the “HC-RH-001 Hand Finger Exerciser” is known (Internet-magazine “ReaMed. Rehabilitation Equipment”. The finger trainer - HC-RH-001, found on 05/01/2018 in the network Internet at http://reamed.su/trenazhery-dlya-reabilitatsii/trenazher-dlya-paltsev-hc-rh-001).

The HC-RH-001 simulator is a ladder simulator designed to develop finger movements. Structurally, this simulator consists of a vertically located plastic “ladder” with “steps” of different heights. During training, the patient “steps” on these steps with his fingers, thanks to which the development of finger movements is carried out.

The disadvantages of this simulator when using it for classes on the development of finger movements in patients with a neurological clinic are:

a) the ability to conduct classes with this simulator only when it is rigidly fixed on a vertical surface;

b) the impossibility of training with this simulator for bed patients of a neurological clinic.

Also, from the current level of technology, the “Finger Flexion-Extensor Trainer” is known (RATAY Rehabilitation online store, The Finger Flexion-Extensor simulator), found on 05/01/2018 on the Internet at http://ratay.kz / reabilitatsionnoe-oborudovanie7 / trenazhery-dlya-hod-by-razvitiya-melkoj-motoriki / trenazher-sgibanie-razgibanie-pal-tsev-art-404-3-ya-mogu).

Structurally, this simulator consists of a base on which there is a stand for the forearm on one side, and rubber harnesses are fixed on the other side, at the ends of which there are loops worn on the fingers. During classes with this simulator, the patient, having placed his forearm on a stand, bends and extends his fingers, overcoming the resistance of rubber bands.

 The disadvantages of this simulator when using it for classes on the development of finger movements in patients with a neurological clinic are:

a) the ability to conduct classes with the simulator only if there is a horizontal surface;

b) the difficulty of working with this simulator for bedridden patients.

In order to overcome the above drawbacks, “Bottle mini-weight for training on the development of finger movements in patients with a neurological clinic” (hereinafter referred to as “bottle mini-weight”) was developed.

The tasks to be solved by the claimed technical solution are:

a) ensuring that patients can perform exercises to develop finger movements in various conditions, in the absence of a horizontal surface;

b) providing the possibility of conducting classes with bedridden patients of a neurological clinic;

c) individual selection of power load on the fingers of each patient’s fingers, taking into account the existing violation of the movements of the fingers;

d) providing the possibility of a gradual increase in the power load on the patient’s fingers by smoothly changing the weight of the “bottle mini-weight”;

e) ensuring the availability of classes with a “bottle mini-weight” to patients with severe impaired finger movements due to its reliable fixation on the finger;

e) the simplicity and compactness of the design of "bottle mini-weight", ensuring its widespread adoption in clinical practice; as well as the possibility of its use by patients at home after discharge from the clinic;

g) the use of prefabricated elements in the design of “bottle mini-weight” that simplify its manufacture and reduce its cost.

The technical result of the claimed utility model is the expansion of the functionality of the "Finger Flexion-Extensor" simulator, provided by the structural elements of the claimed "bottle mini-weight" allowing classes to develop finger movements in various conditions in the absence of a horizontal surface, providing the possibility of training for bed patients of a neurological clinic.

This technical result is ensured by the fact that the “bottle mini-weight” contains a holder including a cap made of plastic, the outer diameter of which is 32-34 mm, the height is 16-20 mm, the inner part of which has an internal thread and a sealing a groove designed for tight wrapping of a cargo container containing filler, while the parameters of the internal thread and sealing groove are similar to the corresponding parameters of a standard screw 28 mm plastic corks for plastic bottles, and on the upper part of the cap a loop-clamp is fixed, which has an oval shape, with a hole size of 15-25x12-20 mm and made of elastic plastic of rectangular cross section, 10-15x3-5 mm in size.

In a preferred embodiment of the “bottle mini-weight” vertical notches are made on the side surface of the cap.

In the preferred version of the “bottle mini-weight”, existing plastic bottles of a small volume (0.2 - 0.3 liters) are used as cargo containers, the necks of which are made under a standard screw 28 mm plastic stopper.

In a preferred embodiment of “bottle mini-weight”, liquid or bulk materials can be used as filler in plastic bottles.

The essence of the utility model "Bottle mini-weight for exercises on the development of finger movements in patients of a neurological clinic" is illustrated by sketches, which depict:

In FIG. 1 - general view of the holder "bottle mini-weights";

In FIG. 2 - section of the holder "bottle mini-weights";

In FIG. 3, 4 are examples of a “bottle mini-weight” with cargo containers in the form of various plastic bottles.

The claimed “bottle mini-weight” consists of a holder, which is hermetically screwed onto the neck of the cargo container (4), inside which the filler is contained (see Fig. 3, 4).

 The holder (see Fig. 1, 2) consists of a cap (1), in the upper part of which a loop-clamp (2) is rigidly fixed.

The cap (1) is made of plastic, has an external diameter of 32-34 mm and a height of 16-20 mm. At the same time, the inner part of the cap (1) has a thread whose parameters (depth and threaded diameter) are similar to the corresponding parameters of a standard screw 28 mm plastic stopper for plastic bottles (Wholesale Trade - Wholesale Suppliers website. Stopper (cap) for a 28 mm plastic bottle was found on the Internet on May 01, 2018 at http://www.opt-union.ru/i_store/item_1002315758/probka-kolpachek-dlya-plastikovoy-butylki-28mm-podhodit-dlya-formatov-bpf -pco-40-kop.html).

To ensure the tightness of the connection of the cap (1) with the cargo container (4), a sealing groove (not shown in the figures) is made at the end of its threaded part, similar to the sealing groove of a standard screw 28 mm plastic stopper from a plastic bottle (see link above) , which includes the upper part of the neck of the cargo container (4).

For the convenience of screwing the holder onto the neck of the cargo container (4), vertical notches (3) are made on the side surface of the cap (1).

The hinge-retainer (2) has an oval shape, with a hole size of 15-25x12-20 mm and is made of elastic plastic of rectangular cross section, with dimensions of 10-15x3-5 mm.

Due to the oval shape of the locking loop (2), it can be stretched somewhat in height, thereby providing the possibility of fixing the "bottle mini-weight" on fingers of various sizes.

The locking loop (2) is rigidly fixed, for example, by means of a screw connection (not shown in the figures) on the top of the cap (1).

As cargo containers (4) in work with the “bottle mini-weight”, existing plastic bottles of small volume (0.2 - 0.3 l.) From under mineral water, carbonated drinks, etc., the necks of which are made under standard screw 28 mm plastic plug (link see above), for example:

a) a plastic bottle with a volume of 0.2 l (see Fig. 3) (Auchan store. Water Every Day, without gas, 0.2 l, was found on 05/01/2018 on the Internet at https: / /www.auchan.ru/pokupki/kd-voda-pit-evaja-b-gaz-0-2-l.html);

b) a plastic bottle with a volume of 0.25 liters (see Fig. 4) (RusKan online store. Drinking water Aquanika Premium sparkling 0.25 liters, found on 05/01/2018 on the Internet at https://ruskan.su / 515721 /).

Various liquids (e.g., water) or bulk materials (e.g., sand, salt) can be used as a filler of a cargo container (4).

To assemble a "bottle mini-weight" the following actions are performed:

a) a plastic bottle, required in volume, is selected, which acts as a container-cargo (4);

b) a plastic bottle is filled partially or completely with filler, and a holder is screwed on its neck;

c) in case of using a filler in the form of a liquid, the tightness of the connection of the holder with the neck of the plastic bottle is checked.

Work with the “Bottle mini-weight for classes on the development of finger movements in patients with a neurological clinic” is as follows:

Before the start of the course, the specialist individually selects the parameters (volume of the cargo-load (4) and the total weight of the filler) of the “bottle mini-weight” depending on the type and severity of the violation of the patient’s fingers (see Figs. 3, 4).

Further, the specialist fixes the “bottle mini-weight” on one of the fingers of the patient’s hand using a locking loop (2), after which the patient performs the corresponding exercises under the guidance of a specialist. Similarly, work is also done with the other fingers.

After mastering classes with a "bottle mini-weight" under the guidance of a specialist, the patient gets the opportunity to conduct independent classes with her both in the clinic and at home.

As the patient achieves positive results in the development of finger movements, the exercises performed with the "bottle mini-weight" are complicated as follows:

a) the use of larger plastic bottles, allowing to increase the weight of the "bottle mini-weight";

b) an increase in the weight of the filler used.

Along with classes on the development of finger movements in patients with a neurological clinic, the “bottle mini-weight” can also be effectively used in the development of finger movements that are impaired due to various other diseases: injuries to the fingers, consequences of surgical operations, etc.

Thus, due to the design features of the developed “bottle mini-weight”, it becomes possible to carry out classes on the development of finger movements in various conditions, providing the opportunity for classes for bed patients in a neurological clinic.

 Due to the simplicity of design and ease of use, the “bottle mini-weight” can be widely used in clinical practice.
