18 Claims.
1 This invention relates to devices for strengthening the muscles'of the feet by exercise and has for its principal object the provision of an arch normalizer which massages the arches of the foot while causing a movement of the long muscles which pass beneath the arch from opposite sides, these combined movements exercising all of the joints in the feet and ankles.
Other objects of the invention relate to details making for convenience in operating and to increase the efficiency of the device, as more par ticularly pointed out in the claims.
The design of this machine is based on the fact that the bones which form the two arches of the foot are supported by two long muscles which are attached at their upper ends to the leg bones at points just below the knee and at their lower ends pass under the arches of the foot from opposite sides, thus serving as a sling to hold in place the key bones of the arch when these muscle are in healthy exercised condition. The sling is particularly eiiective since the one muscle is On the outside of the foot and the other, which passes at the rear of the leg enters below the arch on the opposite side, the inside. The tendons of these two muscles each have a number of points of attachment and they completely cross each other, Both muscles provide for the extension of the foot on the leg and the outer muscle (peroneus longus) takes care of eversion while the other (tibialis posticus) coming from the inside takes care of inversion, neither however having sufficient exercise in these days of perfectly fiat streets and other surfaces on which walking is done.
My thought is that if these two muscles are strengthened by exercise they will naturally raise the key bones of the arch to their proper positions and will hold them there. Obviously the best exercise would be had by walking barefoot on uneven surfaces but since this will not be practiced, this machine in no small way accomplishes exactly the same function, by giving plenty of exercise to both of the muscles in both front to back movement and side to side movement. The action of the vibrators is to massage the bottom (plantar) surfaces of the foot as in this way the bones of the arch are moved upwardly into their normal positions and it is the function of the two muscles recited to hold them in this position. The combination of the movements is most eifective, putting the muscles in tension and causing movement of all of the joints in the foot and the ankle.
A surprising feature of my machine is the fact that it gives a restful sensation to feet which are, as far as anyone can see, in perfect condition, being without any indication of any displacement of any of the several bones of the arches of the feet.
In the drawings, illustrating one form of my device which has been found satisfactory in my practice:
' Figure 1 is a side elevation with one side bracket or plate removed.
Figure 2 is a front elevation withthe front plate of the cabinet removed.
Figure 3 is a bottom plan view of the foot supporting table.
Figure 4 is a top plan view.
Figures 5 and'6 are views of the rocker plate and vibrator assembly.
The cabinet of my device includes a bed [0, a front plate I I and two side plates l2 forming a box, open at its top and back. Centrally secured to the bed is a motor Hi, the pinion it of which drives a wheel I! fast to a main shaft l8 mounted in bearings 20 on the respective side plates 12. A pinion 2| fast on main shaft I8 drive the gear 23 fast on shaft 24 which is the table tilting shaft and is mounted at one side in a bearing 25 onthe side plate l2 and at the other side in a bearing 21 carried by a pedestal 28 secured to the bed Iil somewhat forward of the motor IS.
A table 30 upon which the feet of the patient are supported is secured to the steel base 3| which has at each side a bracket 33 for mounting the table so as to oscillate on the main shaft as for example by the bearings 34 carried by the parallel brackets. A pin 35 loosely mounted in a pair of lugs 36 secured to the table base Si is frictionally held in a yoke 38 threaded to a pitman 39 pivoted as at 40 to a crank arm 4! on the end of the table tilting shaft 24 which projects through the pedestal bearing. As a result of the mechanism thus described the motor causes the foot supporting table to oscillate about the axis of the main shaft at a speed which may be roughly twenty-five times per minute, this giving about one tilt per second. The angle of tilt is adjusted as may be desired, giving usually a defiection as much as 35 on each side of horizontal. This angle can be increased or decreased by means of the threaded connection between the pitman 39 and the yoke 38, a lock nut 43 being provided to keep the parts in desired relation.
While the bed of the cabinet may rest directly on the floor I prefer to provide a channel 44 at thebottom ofthe bed i 0 sothat the entire cabinet may be mounted on a steel cylinder 45 to provide for lateral tilting of the table in addition to the forward and backward oscillation of the table about the axis of the main shaft as such an additional tilt at right angles to the main tilt tends to strengthen the ankles of the patient.
In order to massage the patients arches I provide one or more vibrators positioned directly under the longitudinal arch of the foot. These vibrators may each consist of a rubber cushion 41 mounted on an internally threaded sleeve 48 in which is mounted a tappet 49, the threaded engagement providing for an appreciable alteration in simple fashion of the throw of the vibrator.
The stem of the vibrators may be a simple rod in which case the movement of the head 41 will be constant but the effective movement may be altered by using a pad 46 with holes therein for the vibrators. I prefer a throw of about a halfinch and about three cycles per second. The vibrators are mounted in guide bars 50, secured to the table 3i sloped to make an angle of 12 to 15 degrees right and left for most convenient positioning of the feet. The vibrators may be reciprocated in any desired manner, a convenient scheme being to have the tappets or stems engage a rocker plate 53 oscillating by means of bearings 54 turning about a shaft 55 suspended from the guide bars 50 by suspension eyes 56. An arm 58 secured to the rocker plate 43 is operatively connected with a crank 60 on shaft 6| by means of a link 62. This gives a rapid oscillation to the rocker plate 53 and a consequent rapid reciprocation of the rubber heads 41 of the vibrators, the shaft 6! turning at about 165 R. P. M.
As best seen in Figure 2, the shaft BI is mounted in a bearing 65 carried by the bracket 33 of the table base 3| and by a pedestal bearing 66 suspended from the table base 3|. The shaft 6| receives its motion through pinion 58 carried thereon and continuously meshing with a pinion 69 on the main shaft 18 as shaft 6| rocks about shaft l8. All of the pinions and gears are illustrated in conventional type but it is my preference that they be helically cut and run in oil in the retainer so as to bring the arch directly over athe pusher heads. A handle bar 11 is found convenient and may be somewhat in excess of four feet above the table. The vertical posts I8 of the handle bar may be received in sockets 19 secured to the front corners of the cabinet.
After the foot retainers have been adjusted by the doctor in proper position for the particular patient and preferably a toe board 80 is placed against the toes to afford a more convenient gripping of the table 30, the patient tilts about the main axis and the vibrators operate to massage the lower surface of the foot as a result of the motor and if the cylinder 45 is used the patient moves the cabinet from side to side, which serves to. strengthen the ankles and to render the other i actions more effective.
What I claim is z 1. A foot engaging table tiltable about a horizontal axis, and power means for rocking the table about a second axis at right angles to said axis.
2. The device of claim 1 plus means for vibrating the arch bones of a foot on said table while the table is being tilted about one or both of said axes.
