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 motor functions of the hands in patients of a neurological clinic.

Impairment of motor functions of the hands occurs in patients with a neurological clinic due to various brain lesions associated with injuries, poisoning, infections, and vascular diseases of the brain.

Currently, various simulators, as well as various types of dumbbells and clubs, are used for classes on the development of motor functions of the hands in patients at a neurological clinic.

According to Appendix No. 5 to the Order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of the Russian Federation of August 22, 2005 No. 534 "On measures to improve the organization of neurorehabilitation care for patients with the consequences of stroke and head injury" dumbbells and clubs, a list of equipment for equipping centers (departments) of speech pathology and neurorehabilitation (Information Portal PRAVO-MED.RU Order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of the Russian Federation of August 22, 2005 N 534, found July 25, 2018 on the Internet at http://pravo-med.ru/legislation/fz/3317/).

So, from the existing level of technology, “Bottle dumbbell for classes on the development of motor functions of the hands in patients of a neurological clinic” is known (Patent RU 179873 U1, publication date 05/28/2018).

Structurally, this dumbbell consists of a plastic holder, the end parts of which are screwed onto the necks of plastic bottles containing filler in the form of a liquid or bulk material.

When the plastic bottles are partially filled with filler, an additional effect arises on the patient’s dumbbell holding hand due to the inertia of the filler moving inside each plastic bottle.

The disadvantages of this dumbbell when it is used during classes on the development of motor functions of the hands in patients with a neurological clinic are:

a) during classes with this dumbbell, the filler moves in isolation inside each of the plastic bottles that are not communicated with each other, which reduces the effect of the inertial forces of the filler on the patient's arm holding the dumbbell;

b) this dumbbell can be held by the hand only at its central part, which limits the number of exercises performed with it;

c) the difficulty of filling plastic bottles with bulk filler due to the narrow neck of plastic bottles.

Also known from the prior art is the “XCO-Trainer” Movable Center of Gravity Dumbbell, which is a hollow aluminum tube filled with a filler in the form of granular material. The total weight of this dumbbell is 614 grams. (The Dom Sport 24 online store. An XCO dumbbell with a dynamic (movable) center of gravity, was found on July 25, 2018, on the Internet at http://domsport24.ru/ganteli/gantel-xco-s-dinamicheskim-% 28peremeschaemyim% 29-tsentrom-tyajesti).

According to the description of this dumbbell, during the performance of various exercises, the granules are constantly displaced, which creates additional resistance and makes the muscles work more intensively. With active, rhythmic oscillatory movements, dumbbells use the force of inertia and create a powerful counterweight. Thus, the dynamic mass increases depending on the amplitude of arm movements and the pace of the exercise (GeekRunner website, Advantages of the XCO-Trainer dumbbells, found July 25, 2018 on the Internet at https://geekrunner.org/equipment/ xco-trainer).

The disadvantages of this dumbbell when it is used during classes on the development of motor functions of the hands in patients with a neurological clinic are:

a) the design of this dumbbell does not allow changing its weight, which is important for classes on the development of motor functions of the hands in patients with a neurological clinic;

b) this dumbbell can be held by the hand only at its central part, which limits the number of exercises performed with it;

c) the relatively small length of this dumbbell limits the amount of inertia of the filler moving inside the dumbbell;

d) the initial weight of a dumbbell made of metal may be excessive for patients with severe impairment of the motor functions of the hands.

Also known from the existing level of technology is “Bottle club for classes on the development of motor functions of the hands in patients of a neurological clinic” (Patent RU 179872 U1, publication date 05/28/2018).

Structurally, this mace is a plastic holder, on one side of which an emphasis is made, and on the other, a sleeve with a thread that is screwed onto the neck of a plastic bottle containing filler in the form of a liquid or bulk material.

 When the plastic bottle is partially filled with filler, there is an additional effect on the patient's arm holding the mace due to the inertia of the filler moving inside the plastic bottle.

The disadvantages of this mace, when used during classes on the development of motor functions of the hands in patients with a neurological clinic are:

a) during classes with this mace, the filler moves inside the plastic bottle, most of which are of relatively short length, which reduces the effect of the inertial forces of the filler on the patient's hand;

b) this mace can be held by the hand only by its holder, which limits the number of exercises performed with it;

c) the inconvenience of filling plastic bottles with bulk filler due to the narrow neck of the plastic bottles.

In order to overcome the above drawbacks, the “Tubular dumbbell club for classes on the development of motor functions of the hands in patients of a neurological clinic” (hereinafter referred to as the “tube dumbbell club”) was developed.

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

a) the possibility of a gradual increase in the weight of the "tube dumbbell club" during the course of classes;

b) the universality of the “tube dumbbell club”, which consists in the possibility of holding it in the hand in various ways: as a dumbbell and as a club, which helps to increase the variety of exercises performed with it;

c) increased additional impact on the patient’s hand due to the inertia of the filler moving within the entire space of the “tube dumbbell-club”;

d) the ability to change the characteristics of the "tube dumbbell club" through the use of different types of fillers;

e) the possibility of fixing the "tube dumbbell club" on the patients' hands with impaired finger movements.

f) the small weight of the “tube dumbbell-club” body, which makes it possible to practice for patients with severe impairment of the motor functions of the hands;

The technical result of the claimed utility model is the expansion of the functionality of the "XCO-Trainer" movable center of gravity dumbbell, provided by the structural elements of the claimed "tube dumbbell club", allowing for the individual selection of its weight for each patient, with its gradual increase the course of the course, as well as providing the versatility of the "tube dumbbell club", consisting in the possibility of its use, both as a dumbbell and as a bull you.

This technical result is ensured by the fact that the “tube dumbbell-mace” contains a plastic tube-tube body with an external diameter of 30-45 mm, a length of 350-400 mm, on which four rings are made dividing it into three parts of equal length -limiters, the outer diameter of which exceeds the diameter of the casing-tube by 20-30 mm, and the width is 6-10 mm, while at one end of the casing-tube an end wall is made, and at the other end, an internal thread is made of 15-25 mm long , and a recess with a depth of 4-5 mm into which through otnitelnuyu gasket installed plug-stub, consisting of a threaded portion 10-20 mm in length and the annular flange, wherein a tube stub formed by the slit tool, and on the outer surface of the tube body made incisions; at the same time, two identical straps are fixed to the restrictor rings: a central strap located in the central part of the tube body and an end strap located in the end part of the tube body; and the internal cavity of the tube body is partially filled with filler.

The essence of the utility model "Tube dumbbell club for classes on the development of motor functions of the hands in patients of a neurological clinic" is illustrated by the drawings, which depict:

In FIG. 1 is a general view of a “tube dumbbell club”;

In FIG. 2 is a view of a “tube dumbbell-club” from the side of the stopper plug;

In FIG. 3 is a sectional view of a “tube dumbbell club”.

The inventive "tube dumbbell club" (see Fig. 1, 2) is made of plastic body-tube (1) with an outer diameter of 30-45 mm, a length of 350-400 mm, a wall thickness of 3-4 mm, on which, 4 (four) restrictor rings (2) are made at the same distance from each other, and a filler is contained in the inner cavity of the tube body (1).

Rings-limiters (2) are designed to prevent slipping of the patient’s hand during exercise with a “tube dumbbell-club,” their outer diameter exceeds the diameter of the tube-body (1) by 20-30 mm, the width is 6-10 mm, and their outer edge is rounded in shape.

In this case, 2 (two) restrictor rings (2) are located at the edges of the tube body (1), and 2 (two) others divide the tube body (1) into three parts of equal length.

At one end of the tube body (1), an end wall is made, the thickness of which is equal to the width of the limiter ring (2).

At the other end of the tube body (1), an internal thread is made, the size of which is determined by the inner diameter of the tube body (1), and the length is 15-25 mm, and a recess for the gasket (4) with a depth of 4-5 mm, the diameter of which is 10-20 mm exceeds the diameter of the internal thread.

The internal thread of the tube-housing (1) is designed to install a plug-plug (3), consisting of a threaded part and a sealing flange.

The diameter of the threaded part corresponds to the internal thread of the tube body (1), and the length is 10-20 mm.

The diameter of the sealing flange corresponds to the diameter of the recess under the sealing gasket (4), and its thickness is 3-4 mm.

As a gasket (4), a rubber ring 1-1.5 mm thick is used.

To ensure the installation of the plug-plug (3), a cut is made in it under the tool, which provides the necessary force when it is twisted and unscrewed.

On the outer surface of the tube-body (1), notches (5) are made to prevent slipping of the hand during exercises with the “tube dumbbell-club”.

For reliable fixation of the “tube dumbbell club” in the patient’s hand with impaired movement of the fingers, two identical straps 15-25 mm wide are made of elastic material, for example, rubberized fabric: a central strap (6a) ) and end strap (6b).
