Description

The proposed invention belongs to medical technology and, in particular, to orthopedics and physical rehabilitation.

Various technical devices are known for massaging the sole of the foot 3 with the aim of providing a mechanical and therapeutic effect to improve the trophism of tissues, muscles and joints of the foot and lower leg (auth. St. "1284543, 23.01.87, BI 3, V.P. Kolpakov " Device for foot massage"; author. St. Mo 1456150. 07.07.89, BI 5, GF Ziryanov, T. G. Matyna "Device for massage"; author. St. Mo 1816447, 23.05.93, BI 19, IA Ryzhenkov "Roller for self-massage of legs."

The disadvantage of these devices is the provision of only mechanical massage in combination with physical exercises, which is insufficient to provide an effective effect on the tendons, muscles and joints of the foot.

A well-known device (auth. St. Mo 1827236, 15.07.93, BI 26, M.R. Krivoshapko, "Massage for the feet of the feet"|), which is made in the form of a roller with massage elements on the surface and two rollers on the sides, and which allows the most effective in comparison with other massagers is to perform physical dynamic exercises, and in particular rolling a roller on the floor.

The disadvantage of this device is that it provides only two actions - physical exercise and massage, while there are other types of actions to restore and strengthen the arches of the foot and stimulate reflexogenic zones, in particular, electrical stimulation and vibration massage.

The well-known "Device for strengthening the arch of the foot" (Patent of Ukraine. Mo 22454, 03.03.98, Byul.

Z, Yu.M. Vikhlyaev, V.Yu. Davydenko's, which contains a hollow cone-shaped roller with massaging elements on the surface, which simultaneously and smoothly transitions into a cylindrical one with vibration-forming ribs and support rollers on the sides. The advantage of the device is the ability to provide five types of action on the ligaments, muscles and joints of the foot and lower leg - vibration and electrical stimulation, electrophoresis, mechanical massage and physical dynamic work aimed at muscle-tendon-ligament structures the feet

The disadvantage of the invention is that although it creates a general vibration and massage effect on the sole surface of the foot, firstly, it is not intended to create a targeted effect on the reflexogenic zones of the foot, and secondly, a moistened fabric electrode covering the ribs roller, almost eliminates the massage effect on the sole surface of the foot, as its main function is to create a stimulating electrical effect on muscle-tendon-ligament structures

From the foot Thirdly, the most important thing - the most used natural exercise - walking, it is not able to provide, and it is this exercise and its varieties that provide the greatest opportunities for correcting the arches of the foot.

The devices that are closest to the implementation of the task - providing an effective therapeutic effect on restoring and strengthening the arches of the foot and stimulating the reflexogenic zones are the devices described and presented with a schematic drawing in the monograph by Yu.M. Vikhlyaeva on page 140

These devices are two boards knocked down at different angles and enable the child to walk on a slanted surface, in the second case - on a concave surface, and in the third option on an inclined surface. The advantages of these devices, taken by us as a prototype, include their simplicity and the ability to perform corrective exercises in the process of natural walking, but at the same time they have significant disadvantages: 1) it is necessary to have three versions of these devices to provide all types of exercises that uneconomical; 2) it is necessary to have some additional support, on which one edge of the devices needs to be raised and it is not known how to fix them, which can be traumatic for the child: 3) devices provide an opportunity to perform only physical exercises, although there are also other types of influence.

The basis of the proposed invention is the task of increasing the selectivity and effectiveness of the therapeutic effect on the functional structures of the foot and other human organs connected to the reflexogenic zones of the sole surface of the foot by creating a device that would allow performing physical dynamic exercises, mechanical massage and vibromassage of reflexogenic zones and the sole surface of the foot, and their electrical stimulation.

The task is solved by the fact that the proposed "board device for correcting foot deformities and stimulating reflexogenic zones" contains a pair of beveled, pair of concave and inclined surfaces-planes for walking, which is distinguished by the fact that vertical planes are placed on each end of the horizontal surfaces-planes 380-410 mm in width and 150 mm in height made of metal 5-10 mm thick or other artificial strong material of greater thickness, in the center of which a hole is drilled (0-10-144 mm), and on the sides - seven spherically located symmetrical holes ( 0-10-14 mm), and the first vertical plane has on its outer surface telescopic supports with the possibility of increasing their length and the corresponding transformation of the horizontal surfaces-planes of the device with an inclination from 0 to 25 degrees, while the other vertical plane rests on the casing (with of any strong material, and metal lugs with a groove, which are fixed on the sides of the casing, and which limit it from lateral displacement, and the downwardly protruding parts of the vertical areas from displacement in the longitudinal direction of the casing, which is tightly pushed onto the vibrator (for example: a household sander for industrially produced wood), and two horizontal planes-surfaces, each 150-180 mm wide and 2500-3000 mm long, made made of wood or other strong non-conductive material with a thickness of 30-50 mm and strength faces from below, and metal corners with a length of vertical faces of 210-240 mm and 150-180 mm - horizontal ones, with a cross section of 40x40x4 mm, on the sides of which are fixed on the ends holes (M - 10-14) are drilled on the edges and three nuts of the same diameter are welded from the inside, and in the middle, where the corner hole of one plane overlaps the hole of the other, there is only one nut into which a permanent bolt is screwed, while "bolts" are screwed into the outermost holes -lambs" fixing in different positions paired surfaces-planes that have a movable connection with each other, with the possibility of transformation into beveled: 150, 160, 170 and flat - 180 degrees, and concave: 19 0, 200, 210 degrees surface, and rows of stimulating and massage elements are screwed into the plane from above, made in the form of bipolar metal (aluminum, copper, brass, bronze, etc.), electrodes connected from two half-cylinders with a current-proof gasket in the middle, having protruding above the surface of the planes, the upper smooth part with a total diameter of 5-7 mm. Its height is 2-4 mm, and the lower part, which has a thread with a diameter of 4-6 mm, and from below, a conductor is soldered to each half-cylinder, which is connected to the commutator and with a generator of electrical stimulating pulses (for example, of the "Mioritm" type with autonomous power supply), which are placed below one of the horizontal planes adjacent to the vertical one with telescopic supports, and the switch control buttons are located next to the generator control panel, and allow forming a bipolar pair: a) to all two half-cylinders located next to each other; b) to all two half-cylinders located in different rows, c) to all two half-cylinders located in the same row, but at different distances from each other, and in the last options "b" and "c" the half-cylinders located next to each other form one electrode.

The technical result of the use of a set of distinctive features of the proposed invention is that the claimed device allows: 1. Due to the introduction of device elements that make it possible to change the surface type,

From which the child moves, to selectively affect the disorders associated with the valgus setting of the child's heel and deformations of the internal longitudinal arch and the front part of the foot - this is the beveled surface of the planes of the device; with a varus installation of the heel and corresponding deformations of the external longitudinal arch and the front part of the foot - this is a concave surface of the planes; with weakening or contractures of individual joints - the inclined surface of the planes of the device. The child can move both by normal walking and its variants: on the toes, on the heels, on the outer side of the foot, on the inner side, taking small steps with the right side forward, the left side forward, and these exercises can be combined depending on the disorder - on on an inclined surface, on a beveled surface, on an edge formed by two planes (stepping sideways), on a concave surface. 2. Simultaneously carry out five types of influence: 1) strengthening and trophic effect of physical exercises, and the choice of these exercises is much larger than in any known simulator; 2) mechanical massage; 3-4) vibration stimulation and electrical stimulation of the longitudinal and lumbar structures of the foot, which is transmitted to the muscles of the lower leg, which are the main flexors and extensors of the tibial joint and the joints of the foot, as well as to all muscle-articular structures of the lower limbs and spine; 5) stimulation of reflexogenic zones of the plantar surface of the foot by mechanical massage, vibration stimulation and electrical stimulation. At the same time, all types of the above-mentioned influences, which is especially important, are performed in the process of natural walking and performing various exercises.

Z. By switching the commutator, selectively change the accentuated impact of electric impulses: a) - in the first position of the commutator, on certain reflexogenic zones that affect the functioning of most human organs; b) - in the second position of the switch - on the muscle-tendon-ligament structures of the foot, which ensure the optimal condition of the longitudinal structures of the foot: internal and external longitudinal arches, phalanges of the fingers and heel, shin and all joints, muscles , ligament and tendon of the lower limb; c) in the third position of the switch - the lumbar vault and other articular and muscle-binding structures of the lower limb. 4. By combining the functions and capabilities of individual versions of the prototype into one - combined, with the possibility of plane transformation, and providing new functions of mechanical massage, vibration and electrical stimulation - to increase the compactness and efficiency of the device, and at the same time to strengthen its versatility.

The essence of the proposal is explained by the drawing, where in fig. 1 shows the proposed device in a position with beveled flat surfaces, a general side view. The proposed "board device for correcting foot deformities and stimulating reflexogenic zones" contains a paired surface (two longitudinal planes) for walking - 1, and from each end - a vertical plane (380-410 in width and 150 mm in height made of metal with a thickness of 5 -10 mm, or other artificial durable material of greater thickness) - 2, and seven spherically located symmetrical holes are drilled in the center and on the sides - C, for connection and fixation with paired horizontal surfaces-planes. The first vertical plane - 2а, has on its outer surface telescopic supports - 4, which are fixed to it, and ensure the stability of the structure and provide an opportunity, due to the increase in the length of the supports, to transform the paired surface of the device with an inclination from 0 to 25 degrees. Another vertical plane - 26 rests on the casing - 5 and lugs with a groove 6, which are fixed on the sides of the casing, and which limit it from lateral displacement, and the downwardly protruding parts of the vertical plane - 7, - from displacement in the longitudinal direction - relative to the casing , which is pushed onto the vibrator - 8, which is a rectangle (for example: a household sander for industrially produced wood). Two horizontal planes (each 150-180 mm wide and 2500-

3000 mm in length, made of wood or other strong non-conductive material with a thickness of 30-50 mm and glued or stuffed with strength faces from below - not shown), and metal corners with the length of vertical faces 210-240 mm and 150-180 mm - horizontal, in section 40x40x4 mm, - 9, fig. 2, on the sides of which, on the vertical faces, holes (M - 10-14) are drilled, and three nuts of the same diameter - 10 are welded from the inside, and in the middle, where the corner hole of one plane overlaps the hole of the other, there is only one nut, which is screwed into permanent bolt - 11, while "lamb bolts" - 12 are screwed into the outermost holes, which fix in different positions the paired surfaces of the planes that have a movable connection with each other, with the possibility of fixing the horizontal planes between the vertical planes in different positions the account of the connection with lamb bolts, which are screwed in from the side of the vertical planes only by hand effort. Horizontal planes (surfaces), have a movable connection with each other (not shown), with the possibility of transformation into an inclined: 150, 160, 170 and flat - 180 degrees, and a concave: 190, 200, 210 degrees, surface for performing exercises and

Ko) of the child's walking, for which it is only necessary to rearrange the bolts-lambs in the corresponding holes.

From above, the multiple surfaces contain stimulating and massage elements made in the form of bipolar metal (aluminum, copper, brass, bronze, etc.) electrodes glued together from two half cylinders with a current-proof gasket in the middle, which have an upper smooth part protruding above the surface of the planes with a total diameter of 5 -7 mm and 2-4 mm high - 13, and the lower part, which has a thread with a diameter of 4-6 mm and is screwed into the plane, and from below, to each half-cylinder, a conductor is soldered, which is connected to the commutator and to the generator of electrical stimulating pulses (for example, of the "Mioritm" type with autonomous power supply), which are located below one of the horizontal planes adjacent to the vertical 2a, and the switch control buttons are located on the generator control panel 14, and allow forming a bipolar pair: a) two half-cylinders located near; b) to two half-cylinders located in different rows, c) to two half-cylinders located in the same row, but at different distances from each other, and in the last options "b" and "c", the half-cylinders located next to each other form one electrode. Semi-cylinders of bipolar electrodes are made of metal (aluminum, bronze, brass, copper, etc.), the current-proof gasket is made of any dielectric of sufficient strength (plastic).

Use the device as follows. The child stands on each paired surface with one limb and performs special exercises, changing the size of steps or the pace of movements, if necessary, increasing the strength of the current or changing the amplitude or mode of electrical stimulation, adding vibration stimulation or without it. Depending on the violation determined by the orthopedist, one or another position of the surfaces is used: beveled, concave, flat, inclined or horizontal and their combinations. In the exercise of stepping sideways, if necessary, a rib formed by two surfaces is used. Since all half-cylinders of bipolar electrodes are connected to the generator of electrical impulses through the switch, this makes it possible to act on the sole surface of the foot with electrical impulses during exercises in three options: a) - in the first position of the switch - to form a bipolar pair of two half-cylinders located nearby and locally excite certain reflexogenic zones that affect the functioning of most human organs; b) - in the second position of the switch - to two half-cylinders located in different rows on the muscle-tendon-ligament structures of the foot, which ensure the optimal condition of the longitudinal structures of the foot: the inner and outer longitudinal arches, the phalanges of the fingers and the heel , leg and all joints of the lower limb; c) in the third position of the switch - two half-cylinders located in one row of electrodes, but at different distances from each other - affect the muscle-tendon-ligament structures of the lumbar vault.

Thus, the proposed device allows you to perform various physical exercises in the process of natural walking, walking with your chest forward, your back forward, sideways with the rear limb forward or stepping sideways, using different surfaces, which dramatically changes the conditions for performing exercises and provides a corrective medical and therapeutic effect : strengthens blood circulation, trophic tissue; massage of the muscle-tendon-ligamentous structures of the arches and reflexogenic zones of the foot both in a simple mechanical way and with the help of electric pulses of various amplitudes and currents, and the use of vibration effectively enhances the restorative rehabilitation of the patient by not only strengthening the muscles - tendinous and ligamentous structures of the foot and lower limbs, as well as most organs and systems of the body, which have their own reflexogenic zones on the sole surface of the foot.
