Ko se medenica zasuka v eno stran, se nekatere mišice raztegujejo, druge pa se skrčijo, pri čemer vibracijska masaža hrbta sprosti raztegnjene mišice. Ko se medenica zasuka v drugo smer, se sprosti preostala skupina mišic. Na ta način se lahko sprosti vsemišice v spodnjem delu hrbta, kar pripomore k lajšanju bolečin.The present invention relates to the field of medicine, namely to physiotherapy and pain relief devices, more particularly to the field of vibration-producing passive exercise devices. The invention also relates to the field of physical training devices, in particular to gymnastic devices designed for the back. The subject of the invention is a device for balancing the lower part of the spine with the possibility of targeted exercise of certain muscles of the back in order to prevent or alleviate pain in this part of the body. The essence of the device is that the person rests his lower back on the vibrating plate of the device and inserts the raised legs between a pair of movable levers equipped with a sensor for measuring pressure or traction, which triggers vibratory massage of the lower back at the same pressure. As the pelvis rotates to one side, some muscles stretch and others contract, with a vibrating back massage relaxing the stretched muscles. When the pelvis rotates in the other direction, the remaining muscle group is released. In this way, the muscles in the lower back can be released, which helps relieve pain.

The invention also relates to the field of physical training devices, in particular to gymnastic devices designed for the back. The subject of the invention is a device for balancing the lower back with the possibility of targeted training of certain muscles of the back in order to prevent or alleviate pain in this part of the body.
Ozadje izuma in tehnični problemBackground of the invention and technical problem
Splošno znano je, da je današnji način življenja in predvsem dela večinoma sedeč, kar nenehno obremenjuje spodnji del hrbta in medenico ter povzroča napetosti med elementi spodnjega dela telesa. Omenjene obremenitve in napetosti po določenem času povzročijo, da so hrbtne mišice nenehno napete, trde in boleče, možne pa so tudi poškodbe hrustančnih diskov, ki ločujejo vretenca hrbtenice. To posledično prinaša bolečine v spodnjem delu hrbta, ki prizadenejo zelo velik delež odraslih. S tem se zmanjšuje kvaliteta življenja, pri čemer se veliko delovnih ur izgubi zaradi nezmožnosti opravljanja dela.It is common knowledge that today's way of life and especially work is mostly sedentary, which constantly puts a strain on the lower back and pelvis and causes tension between the elements of the lower body. These loads and tensions after a certain time cause the back muscles to be constantly tense, hard and painful, and damage to the cartilaginous discs that separate the vertebrae of the spine is also possible. This in turn brings pain in the lower back, which affects a very large proportion of adults. This reduces the quality of life, with many working hours lost due to inability to perform work.
Poznanih je kar nekaj naprav, ki zmanjšujejo napetost in bolečine v spodnjem delu hrbta s pomočjo gretja ali vibracijskih pasov, vendar pa je njihova uporaba na delovnem mestu, kjer se odvija največ sedenja, nemogoča ali neprimerna. Vprašljiva je tudi učinkovitost takšnih naprav. Druga možnost so protibolečinske tablete in/ali geli oziroma kreme, ki pa na daljši rok niso primerne za uporabo, saj rešujejo posledico, ne pa razloga za bolečine. Skrajna možnost zdravljenja so operativni posegi, a le, če je oseba za to primerna in poškodbe ne omogočajo drugega smiselnega zdravljenja. Zato je tehnični problem, ki ga pričujoči izum rešuje, zasnova naprave za zmanjševanje bolečin v spodnjem delu hrbta s pomočjo uravnovešanja tega dela telesa v naravno lego.There are quite a few devices known to reduce tension and pain in the lower back by means of heating or vibrating belts, but their use in the workplace where most sitting takes place is impossible or inappropriate. The effectiveness of such devices is also questionable. Another option is painkillers and / or gels or creams, which are not suitable for long-term use, as they solve the consequence, not the cause of the pain. The extreme treatment option is surgery, but only if the person is suitable for it and the injuries do not allow for other meaningful treatment. Therefore, the technical problem solved by the present invention is the design of a device for reducing pain in the lower back by balancing this part of the body into a natural position.
Stanje tehnikeState of the art
Znanih je mnogo naprav za telovadbo ter za preventivo in lajšanje bolečin v hrbtu. Večina naprav temelji na sistemu raztegovanja, kot so opisane v patentni prijavi US5772612, patentni prijavi US4838249 in evropskemu patentu EP2319475. Omenjeni dokumenti se razlikujejo od pričujočega izuma, čeprav je nekaterim z izumom skupno to, da uporabnik naprave v času izvedbe tretmaja leži na hrbtu.Many devices are known for exercise and for the prevention and relief of back pain. Most devices are based on a stretching system as described in patent application US5772612, patent application US4838249 and European patent EP2319475. Said documents differ from the present invention, although some of the invention have in common that the user of the device lies on his back during the treatment.
Dokument US 5772612A opisuje napravo, ki se jo postavi pod pokrčena kolena, medtem ko oseba leži na hrbtu in se lahko premika tako, da se hrbet osebe popolnoma zravna s podlago ali upogne v ledvenem delu. Zasnova tega pripomočka je povsem drugačna od pričujočega izuma.U.S. Pat. No. 5,777,612A describes a device that is placed below the bent knees while the person is lying on their back and can be moved so that the person's back is completely aligned with the ground or bent in the lumbar region. The design of this device is completely different from the present invention.
Patentna prijava WO 2014/141248 A1 opisuje napravo za lajšanje bolečin v spodnjem delu hrbta, ki je zasnovana kot dvignjena podlaga za noge, s čemer se noge osebe, ki leži na hrbtu, dvignejo tako, da se sprosti napetost v mišicah spodnjega dela hrbta. Ta rešitev v primerjavi s pričujočim izumom podpira le noge, pri čemer ni njihovega bistvenega premikanja.Patent application WO 2014/141248 A1 describes a device for relieving pain in the lower back, which is designed as a raised footrest, whereby the legs of a person lying on his back are lifted by releasing tension in the muscles of the lower back. This solution supports only the legs compared to the present invention, without their substantial movement.
Opis rešitve tehničnega problemaDescription of the solution to the technical problem
Bistvo naprave za uravnovešanje spodnjega dela hrbtenice z možnostjo ciljane vadbe določenih mišic hrbta z namenom preprečevanja ali lajšanja bolečin v tem delu telesa po izumu je v tem, da je zasnovana tako, da se oseba s spodnjim delom hrbta uleže na vibracijsko ploščo naprave in dvignjene noge vstavi med para premičnih vzvodov opremljenih s senzorjem za merjenje sile pritiska ali vleka, ki ob enakem pritisku obeh nog sproži vibracijsko masažo spodnjega dela hrbta. Ko se medenica zasuka v eno stran, se nekatere mišice raztegujejo, druge pa se skrčijo, pri čemer vibracijska masaža hrbta sprosti raztegnjene mišice. Ko se medenica zasuka v drugo smer, se sprosti preostala skupina mišic. Na ta način se lahko sprosti vse mišice v spodnjem delu hrbta, kar pripomore k lajšanju bolečin. Vibracijska plošča ima prednostno tudi grelni modul, ki pripomore k sproščanju mišic, pri čemer se lahko temperaturo regulira. Senzorju so pomembni zato, da se vibracija sproži v pravem trenutku, in ne kadarkoli. Glavna naloga naprave je torej, da s svojo obliko in delovanjem na kontroliran način uravnovesi spodnji del hrbta skupaj z medenico in njihovo mišično strukturo. Ta postopek prinese stabilizacijo stanja in boljšo porazdelitev sil navzgor po hrbtenici in navzdol skozi noge, kar olajša bolečino v križih in kolkih.The essence of the device for balancing the lower spine with the possibility of targeted training of certain back muscles in order to prevent or relieve pain in this part of the body according to the invention is that it is designed so that a person with the lower back lies on the vibrating plate of the device and raised legs inserted between a pair of movable levers equipped with a sensor for measuring the force of pressure or traction, which at the same pressure of both legs triggers a vibratory massage of the lower back. As the pelvis rotates to one side, some muscles stretch and others contract, with a vibrating back massage relaxing the stretched muscles. When the pelvis rotates in the other direction, the remaining muscle group is released. In this way, all the muscles in the lower back can be relaxed, which helps relieve pain. The vibrating plate also preferably has a heating module that helps to relax the muscles, whereby the temperature can be regulated. They are important to the sensor so that the vibration is triggered at the right time, and not at any time. The main task of the device is therefore to balance the lower back together with the pelvis and their muscular structure in a controlled way with its shape and function. This procedure brings stabilization of the condition and better distribution of forces up the spine and down through the legs, which relieves pain in the lower back and hips.
Naprava je sestavljena iz osnovnega okvirja, ki je sestavljen iz dveh delov in je:The device consists of a basic frame, which consists of two parts and is:
- na zgornjem delu nameščena mehka podlaga, ki jo je možno napihniti preko opcijskega napihljivega mehurja v mehki podlagi, in- a soft pad mounted on the upper part, which can be inflated via an optional inflatable bladder in a soft pad, and
- na spodnjem delu pa je nameščena vibracijska plošča;- a vibrating plate is installed on the lower part;
- na spodnjem delu je v vrtišču premakljivo vpeta gibljiva konzola, na kateri je nameščen:- in the lower part, a movable console is movably mounted in the pivot, on which is mounted:
o prvi par vzvodov, o drugi par vzvodov, ki sta med seboj povezana z vmesnim delom, pri čemer je razdaljo med obema paroma vzvodov prednostno možno prilagajati s pomočjo vijakov za regulacijo, ki lahko podaljšujejo dolžino vmesnega dela, in pri čemer so na senzorji za merjenje obremenitve nameščeni na vmesni del ali vzvode, prednostno na prvi par vzvodov.o a first pair of levers, o a second pair of levers interconnected by an intermediate part, the distance between the two pairs of levers being preferably adjusted by means of adjusting screws capable of extending the length of the intermediate part, and the sensors for load measurement mounted on the intermediate part or levers, preferably on the first pair of levers.
Prvi in drugi par vzvodov sta povezana z vmesnim delom, razdaljo med njima pa se prednostno lahko prilagaja s posebnim vijakom, zato da se zagotovi optimalna pozicija nog glede na višino in druge mere telesa uporabnika. Regulacija je prednostno izvedena z navojno palico pritrjeno na premični del in navojno matico v fiksnem delu. Drugi par vzvodov je nujen, zato da zagotavlja paralelnost nog, ki omogoča zasuk medenice. Omenjeni drugi par vzvodov, ki je premakljivo vpet v vmesni del, je vpet tako, da se lahko zasuka v dvignjen, torej približno navpičen položaj, tako da lahko uporabnik nemoteno položi noge na prvi par vzvodov. Gibljiva konzola se lahko spusti v povsem vodoraven položaj, med tem ko sta oba dela okvirja lahko povezana tako, da se razdalja med njima lahko spreminja, na primer s pomočjo teleskopskih palic ali ustreznega mehanizma.The first and second pairs of levers are connected to the intermediate part, and the distance between them can preferably be adjusted with a special screw in order to ensure the optimal position of the legs in relation to the height and other dimensions of the user's body. The adjustment is preferably performed with a threaded rod attached to the movable part and a threaded nut in the fixed part. A second pair of levers is necessary to ensure the parallelism of the legs that allows the pelvis to rotate. Said second pair of levers, which is movably clamped in the intermediate part, is clamped in such a way that it can be rotated to a raised, ie approximately vertical position, so that the user can place his feet on the first pair of levers without interruption. The movable bracket can be lowered into a completely horizontal position, while the two parts of the frame can be connected so that the distance between them can be changed, for example by means of telescopic rods or a suitable mechanism.
Naprava ima dodatno lahko še ročaje za oporo, ki so nameščeni ob strani spodnjega dela osnovnega okvirja in so lahko poljubno oblikovani, tako da se uporabnik naprave lahko oprime za stabilnejši položaj.The device can additionally have support handles, which are located on the side of the lower part of the base frame and can be arbitrarily shaped so that the user of the device can grip for a more stable position.
Zgornji del osnovnega okvirja ima tudi prednostno vzglavnik za glavo uporabnika, pri čemer se položaj vzglavnika lahko prednostno premika s pomočjo teleskopskih sani nameščenih v okvirju naprave.The upper part of the base frame also preferably has a headrest for the user, the position of the headrest being preferably moved by means of a telescopic sled mounted in the frame of the device.
Uporaba naprave po izumu poteka tako, da se oseba uleže na napravo, tako da je spodnji del hrbta na vibracijski plošči, glava pa na zgornjem delu okvirja ali prednostno na vzglavniku. Potem se noge vstavi med oba para vzvodov, s čemer je pozicija nog uporabnika fiksirana. Razdalja med obema paroma vzvodov se lahko prilagodi s pomočjo vijakov, s čemer se poskrbi za boljši oprijem nog. V tem položaju se lahko po potrebi napihne opcijski mehur v podlagi, da pravilno podpira zgornji del hrbta. Gibanje nog je lahko sledeče:The use of the device according to the invention takes place in such a way that the person lies on the device so that the lower part of the back is on the vibrating plate and the head is on the upper part of the frame or preferably on the pillow. Then the legs are inserted between the two pairs of levers, thus fixing the position of the user's legs. The distance between the two pairs of levers can be adjusted with the help of screws, thus ensuring better grip of the legs. In this position, the optional bladder can be inflated at the base if necessary to properly support the upper back. The movement of the legs can be as follows:
- desna noga potiska prvi par vzvodov, leva nogo pa vleče drugi par vzvodov proti sebi, s čemer se medenica zasuka v eno smer,- the right leg pushes the first pair of levers and the left leg pulls the second pair of levers towards itself, causing the pelvis to rotate in one direction,
- desna noga vleče drugi par vzvodov proti sebi, leva noga pa potiska prvi par vzvodov, s čemer se medenica zasuka v drugo smer.- the right leg pulls the second pair of levers towards itself and the left leg pushes the first pair of levers, causing the pelvis to rotate in the other direction.
Ob katerikoli varianti pritiska ali vlečenja nog, se ob izenačenju pritiska med nogama, ki ga zaznavata senzorja, aktivira delovanje vibracijske plošče, ki v prednastavljenem času vibracijsko masira spodnji del hrbta. Po določenem času se pritisk z nogama obrne, da se medenica zasuka v drugo smer in ob enakem pritisku obeh nog senzorji zopet sprožijo vibracijsko masažo. To se lahko poljubno ponavlja, dokler se občutek v spodnjem delu hrbta ne izboljša.With any variant of pressure or pulling of the legs, when the pressure between the legs is detected, which is detected by the sensors, the action of the vibrating plate is activated, which vibrates the lower part of the back at a preset time. After a certain time, the pressure with the legs turns so that the pelvis rotates in the other direction and at the same pressure of both legs, the sensors start the vibration massage again. This can be repeated as desired until the feeling in the lower back improves.
Z uporabo naprave kot je bila opisana zgoraj se razbremeni in uravnovesi spodnji del hrbta in se olajšanje oziroma sprostitev čuti takoj. S izmeničnim pritiskom nog se medenico spravi v pravilen položaj, kar poravna medenico in hrbtenico ter tudi uravnovesi sklepe kolkov. Posledica tega uravnovešenja celotnega področja spodnjega hrbta povzroči pravilno porazdelitev sil telesa navzgor po hrbtenici in navzdol po nogah. To stanje zmanjša ali popolnoma odpravi bolečine spodnjega dela hrbtenice in pa tudi kolkov.By using the device as described above, the lower back is relieved and balanced and relief or relaxation is felt immediately. By alternating leg pressure, the pelvis is brought into the correct position, which aligns the pelvis and spine and also balances the hip joints. The result of this balancing of the entire area of the lower back results in a proper distribution of body forces up the spine and down the legs. This condition reduces or completely eliminates pain in the lower spine as well as the hips.

Slika 2 prikazuje položaj naprave za sprejem osebe, pri čemer so drugi par vzvodov, ki je premakljivo vpet v vmesni del, lahko zasuka v dvignjen, torej približno navpičen položaj, tako da lahko uporabnik nemoteno položi noge na prvi par vzvodov.Figure 2 shows the position of the person receiving device, wherein the second pair of levers movably attached to the intermediate part can be rotated to a raised, i.e. approximately vertical position, so that the user can place his feet on the first pair of levers without interruption.
Uporaba naprave po izvedbenem primeru je prikazana na sliki 4, in sicer se oseba uleže na napravo, tako da je spodnji del hrbta 18 na vibracijski plošči 2, glava 19 pa na vzglavniku 5. Potem se dvignjeni drugi par vzvodov kot je prikazano na sliki 2 spusti v delovni položaj kot je prikazan na sliki 1, s čemer je pozicija nog uporabnika fiksirana. Razdalja med obema paroma vzvodov se lahko prilagodi s pomočjo vijakov 11, s čemer se poskrbi za boljši oprijem nog. V tem položaju se lahko po potrebi napihne mehur 15 v podlagi 4, da pravilno podpira zgornji del hrbta 20. S polnimi puščicami 16 je prikazano gibanje nog, ko desna noga potiska prvi par vzvodov, leva nogo pa vleče drugi par vzvodov proti sebi, s čemer se medenica zasuka v eno smer. S prekinjenimi puščicami 17 pa je prikazano gibanje nog, ko desna noga vleče drugi par vzvodov proti sebi, leva noga pa potiska prvi par vzvodov, s čemer se medenica zasuka v drugo smer. Ob tem uporabnik drži ročaje 6 z obema rokama. Ob katerikoli varianti pritiska nog, se ob izenačenju pritiska med nogama, ki ga zaznavata senzorja 10, aktivira delovanje vibracijske plošče 2, ki v pred-nastavljenem času vibracijsko masira spodnji del hrbta. Po določenem času se pritisk z nogama obrne, da se medenica zasuka v drugo smer in ob enakem pritisku obeh nog senzorji 10 zopet sprožijo vibracijsko masažo in po želji gretje. To se lahko poljubno ponavlja, dokler se občutek v spodnjem delu hrbta ne izboljša.The use of the device according to the embodiment is shown in Figure 4, namely the person lies on the device so that the lower back 18 is on the vibrating plate 2 and the head 19 on the pillow 5. Then the second pair of levers is raised as shown in Figure 2 lowered to the working position as shown in Figure 1, whereby the position of the user's legs is fixed. The distance between the two pairs of levers can be adjusted by means of screws 11, thus ensuring better grip of the legs. In this position, the bladder 15 can be inflated at the base 4, if necessary, to properly support the upper back 20. The full arrows 16 show the movement of the legs as the right leg pushes the first pair of levers and the left leg pulls the second pair of levers towards itself. whereby the pelvis rotates in one direction. The broken arrows 17 show the movement of the legs as the right leg pulls the second pair of levers towards itself and the left leg pushes the first pair of levers, causing the pelvis to rotate in the other direction. At the same time, the user holds the handles 6 with both hands. With any variant of leg pressure, upon equalization of the pressure between the legs, which is detected by the sensors 10, the action of the vibrating plate 2 is activated, which vibrates the lower part of the back at a preset time. After a certain time, the pressure with the legs is reversed so that the pelvis rotates in the other direction, and at the same pressure of both legs, the sensors 10 trigger the vibration massage and, if desired, the heating. This can be repeated as desired until the feeling in the lower back improves.
