Description
- The present invention concerns the field of fitness equipments. More particularly, the invention has as its object an equipment for carrying out exercises involving the muscles and the articulations of the cervical zone of the spinal column.
- By far the greater part of the pathologies of the cervical zone of the spinal column are connected with phenomena of arthrosis. Apart from being the cause of painful disorders that are extremely troublesome or even invalidating, these pathologies can have serious repercussions of a neurological character.
- As far as physiotherapy is concerned, be it for preventive or therapeutic purposes, interventions regarding these pathologies include also exercises in which—due to the effect of a rotation of the head about the axis of the spinal column—there is produced a flexion of the affected cervical zone. Exercises of this kind may make it possible to increase the mobility of the articulations and to correct the states of hypotonia and muscular asymmetry that underlie the origin of the pathologies in question. Nevertheless, such exercises will prove effective only if the rotation is substantially symmetrical with respect to the axis of the spinal column and is also carried out with a substantially uniform motion. In fact, an unbalanced action and the stressing of the musculature deriving therefrom will result in the risk of enhancing the muscular asymmetry rather than reducing it.
- There has now surprisingly been discovered a new equipment that, though having an extremely simple configuration and occupying only a rather small space, is capable of providing a solution for the problematics that have just been explained, namely assuring a proper balance and therefore correctness and effectiveness of the rotatory motion of the head in flexion exercises involving the cervical zone of the spinal column.
- The equipment according to the present invention comprises a body defining a seating intended to fit onto the upper part of the head of a user. Within said body there is formed an annular channel that runs around the seating, and within this channel there is movably arranged at least one cursor, so that a rotatory movement of the user's head around the axis of the spinal column will cause said cursor to move along the channel, and the user, by virtue of the vibrations and/or the noise produced by this motion, will thus receive indications regarding the symmetry and the uniformity of the rotation movement of his head.
- Preferably the surface of the channel and/or the surface of the at least one cursor will be at least partly roughened, thus increasing the noise made by the movement of the cursor, the uniformity of which will be perceived by the user as indication of the symmetry and uniformity of the rotatory movement of his own head.
- According to a particularly advantageous solution, the body and the related channel are formed by a corrugated tube bent into a ring, and the at least one cursor is constituted by at least one rolling element, preferably spherical, rolling along the channel. This solution attains an excellent result in terms of inertia of the cursor motion and resonance of the noise associated with this motion.
- Other characteristics and advantages of the equipment assisting the carrying out of flexion exercises of the cervical zone of the spinal column according to the present invention will emerge more clearly from the description about to be given of a particular embodiment thereof, which is to be considered as an example and not limitative in any way, said description making reference to the attached drawings of which:
- FIG. 1 shows a plan view of the equipment according to the invention, with a part shown in cutaway;
- FIG. 2 shows a radial section through the equipment taken along lines II-II of FIG. 1;
- FIG. 3 shows a cutaway view of a part of the equipment according to a different embodiment; and
- FIG. 4 shows a perspective view of the equipment according to the invention associated with a ear protecting headset acting as sound amplifier.
- Referring to the above figures, the equipment according to the invention comprises an
annular body 1 that defines acircular seating 2 intended to fit onto the upper part of the head of a user (not shown). - In the illustrated
example body 1 has been formed by bending acorrugated tube 3 of a circular cross section that is wrapped in alining 4 made of some soft material, simple foam rubber for example, so as to render the equipment more comfortable for the wearer and, within certain limits, also make it adaptable to heads of different sizes. -
Corrugated tube 3 defines anannular channel 5 within which there are arranged cursor means, which in the illustrated example have the form of threeballs 6 which, rolling on the internal surface of saidchannel 5, can move freely along the latter. - When in use, the equipment according to the invention, as already mentioned, is worn on the upper part of the user's head. In this condition, whenever the head is made to rotate about the axis of the spinal column with a complete movement of sufficient amplitude, as normally required by exercises for the treatment of disorders of the cervical zone, the
balls 6 begin to roll alongchannel 5 and perform a motion of revolution around the centre ofbody 1, that is to say, ofseating 2. - It will readily be appreciated that the more uniform and symmetrical the rotation of the head, the more regular will be the motion of
balls 6. In particular, in response to a disharmonic rotation saidballs 6 will alternate sudden accelerations with equally sudden decelerations, eventually coming to a stop. The characteristics of this motion, which the user will perceive in particular due to the vibrations and, above all, the noise that it produces, will thus provide him with indications regarding the uniformity with which he performs the exercise, so that he will be able to correct himself. When the motion ofballs 6 becomes perfectly regular, the exercise may be considered as being performed with the maximum effectiveness. - The equipment according to the invention therefore constitutes a precious help in all cases in which the exercise aims at increasing the mobility of the articulations and improving the muscular tone and symmetry of the cervical zone. Since the user himself can check whether or not the exercise is being performed correctly, there will be no need for him to be assisted by a trainer. On the other hand, thanks to its simplicity and compactness, the equipment according to the invention is particularly suitable for home-fitness employment, but can be used also in the office, during work breaks, and can readily accompany the user during travel.
- The provision of several balls6 (especially two or three) rather than just one will prove advantageous, because it will increase not only the noise produced, but also the overall inertia, and will thus assist the attainment of a uniform motion. The
balls 6 or, more generally, any other employed cursor means can also be magnetized, thus conferring magneto-therapeutic capabilities upon the equipment. - When the
balls 6 are of a certain weight, which can be obtained also by increasing the section ofchannel 5 and thus permitting the insertion of larger balls, the muscle-strengthening effect associated with the rotation of the head can be enhanced. On the other hand, the balls can also be reduced in size and increased in number. In that case—as shown in FIG. 3—the cursor means will in practice consist of amass 16 of grains or pellets capable of producing an evocative noise of shaken sand. - Referring to FIG. 4, the noise produced by the cursor means during the use of the equipment can be amplified—and thus perceived by the user even more effectively—by associating a pair of ear-protecting cups7 a with
annular body 1, saidcups contacting tube 3 so that the vibrations can be transmitted from the tube to the cups, and the latter can function as sound amplifiers. - Preferably cups7 a will form part of a conventional
anti-noise headset 7, of which thesemicircular element 7 b linking the cups is attached totube 3 and extends diametrically above it. - Although the illustrated example consists of a corrugated tube, it is obvious that a smooth tube could also be used, and that the rolling or, more generally speaking, sliding noise could possibly be increased by using one or more cursors with a roughened surface.
- The position of
annular body 1 on the head of the user can be rendered more secure by providing straps adjustable in length—by means of Velcro closures, for example—extending diametrically withinseating 2, so that they can clutch the head. To this endannular body 1 can be provided with a certain number of rings for connecting these straps, said rings being typically four in number and evenly spaced around the circumference.Annular body 1 can also be designed in such a way as to permit its circumference being adjusted according to the size of the user's head. As such, the regulating devices used for this purpose can well be of a traditional and known type, for example, of the type employed with sunshades or protection helmets for building workers, or a system with a threaded sleeve arranged coaxially with the tube in such a way that a rotation of the sleeve will produce either a lengthening or a shortening of the tube. - More generally,
channel 5 can be formed also within a body of different characteristics, always provided that it be such as to encircle a seating suitable for fitting the head of the user. - Other variants and/or modifications could be introduced into the equipment to assist the carrying out of flexion exercises of the cervical zone of the spinal column according to the present invention without for this reason going beyond the scope of protection of the invention as defined by the claims hereinbelow.
