Patent Dec. 16, 1975 DORSAL LUMBO SACRAL SUPPORT BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1.
- This invention relates to a medically oriented garment for supporting a persons back and is more particularly directed to one which offers a maximum support with total alignment and adjustment by a single pull on its pulley system.
- the conventional garments for supporting a persons back, lumbar and sacrum consist of a multiplicity of strings and tapes with which to attempt to adjust the support properly about a persons body whereby the user must be assisted in the placing and adjusting of the gannent on his body.
- the support In most of these support garments, the support must first be adjusted to an approximate condition and then after placing the garment on a persons body, the adjusting members have to be readjusted.
- the same effort and procedure has to be followed to readjust the support. At no time can the support be adjusted for the particular individuals requirements and that adjustment be maintained so each time the garment is applied to the persons body, he obtains the same support for his back, etc.
- the conventional supports are found that they do not provide equal support along its full length at all times, since lacings and tapes when tightened have a tendency to bind, thereby causing the support to provide a non-aligned adjustment in its support function.
- the present invention contemplates avoiding all of the above objections.
- a principal object of the present invention is to provide a support garment for a persons dorsal, lumbar and sacrum, which can be readily placed in position by the user about his own body and fasten same to be properly supported each time he removes and replaces the support on his body.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a back support which affords a firm support at all times while in position on his back effecting total alignment without the garment losing its adjustment as to its firmness of support.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide a medically oriented support garment for ones back with convenient front buckle adjustments and a built-in opposing pulley system that can be easily manipulated to secure the garment about the persons body at the same time attain the proper and desired adjustment as to the amount of support desired.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a dorsal lumbo sacral support constructed in accordance with my invention and shown positioned on the partial outline of a persons body.
- FIG. 2 is a rear view showing the functioning of its pulley system.
- FIGS. 3 and 4 are outside and inside plan views.
- FIG. 5 is a fragmentary perspective view of the adjustment belts.
- FIG. 6 is a perspective view of a buckle as seen removed from its strap.
- the numeral 10 refers to my combined support for the dorsal, lumbar and sacrum of a persons body.
- panels 11 and 12 consisting of a pair of panels 11 and 12, each being of somewhat the same shape and size being widest at the inner end portions that engage the back of the person using my support and tapering to a lesser width which lies across the stomach of the person.
- the panels 11 and 12 that are fabricated of double layered white brocade are hemmed along their outer edges and are connected at the end portions to elastic side panels 15 and 16 that conform to and engage firmly the thoracic and pelvic areas of the person about whom the support 10 is positioned.
- each of the outer edges of the panels 1 1 and 12 Attached to each of the outer edges of the panels 1 1 and 12 are the pairs of elastic side panels 15 and 16 which overlap with each other and are positioned so that their elastic threads of one panel extend at about 60angle with the other of the pair of panels .15 and 16.
- the reason for this construction is to cause the outer edges of the back support 10 to spread in a direction away from the main body of the support 10 as a force is applied thereon as is explained hereinafter, causing the back support to be smooth without wrinkles whereby each portion of the back support 10 bears smoothly and evenly against the body of the user.
- Secured to each of the pairs of panels 15, 16 are the panels 17 and 18 that carry the fastening devices which consist of hooks 20 and buckles 21 of which there are three in number of each type.
- the hooks 20 are fastened symmetrically along the width of the panel 18 by means of short lengths of tape 22 which are folded on themselves to form loops with their ends sewn to the narrow band 23 that is in turn sewn across the width of the panel 18 while a portion of panel 18 extends beyond the position of the hooks 20 protect against the hooks 20 bearing against the users body when the device 10 is in place about the persons body.
- each of the straps 24 there is a plurality (three in number) of straps or tapes 24 sewn at one end to the panel 17 and extending outwardly in alignment with the hooks 20.
- the buckle 21 Slidably positioned on each of the straps 24 is the buckle 21 that are each adapted to engage the hooks 20 when the support 10 is placed about the persons body in preparation of placing the support tightly and securely about his body as is explained he reinafter.
- the buckles 21 are conventional in construction consisting of a rod 26 formed into a somewhat 3 rectangular shape with the ends joined together by a crimped tubing 27 that receives the ends of the rod.
- the other edge portion 25 is flattened and given a toothed shape to form a tape gripping edge portion.
- a slide bar 28 that is slidably mounted along the side portions of the rod 26 permits the tape 24 to be threaded therethrough as shown best by FIG. 5.
- the free end of tape 24 is first passed through the space between the tubing 27 and the slide bar 28, passing over the latter to be folded on itself and returned between the slide bar 28 and edge portion 25 to be beneath the main body portion of the tape 24.
- the buckle 21 is now positioned with the toothed edge portion 25 free of the tape 24 and adapted to be engaged by the hook 20.
- the pulling force applied by the hook 20 on the tape 24 causes the slide bar 28 to slide in the direction of the toothed edge portion 25 and grip the tape 24 tightly so that it cannot slip or slide through the buckle 21.
- the support is provided with a pulley system -P- for tightening the support 10 to the desired degree with little effort and which distributes the supporting force equally about the persons body as best shown by FIGS. 1 and 2.
- a pulley system -P- for tightening the support 10 to the desired degree with little effort and which distributes the supporting force equally about the persons body as best shown by FIGS. 1 and 2.
- the tape 31 has its ends sewn to the panel 12 adjacent the outer edges of the panel 12, while the ends of the tape 30 are sewn to the panel 11 closer to the mid-portion of the inner edge thereof.
- a metal loop 32 fastened to one end of an elastic tape 33 is slidably positioned over the tape 31 and has a hook 34 secured to the other end.
- the other tape 30 is provided with a slidable loop 29 that is sewn to the end of an inelastic tape 35 at whose other or free end portion is a buckle 36 identical in construction to the buckles 21 as described herein above.
- a further loop 37 is slidably mounted on the tape 35 for the purpose of receiving the free end of the tape 35 beneath the mainbody of the tape 35 thereby locking the 35 against sliding movement in the buckle 36.
- buckles 21 can be individually adjusted to permit they support to fit properly about the persons body. Then the person grasps the tapes 33 and 35 at their free ends and brings them around to the front of the support 10. He then draws tightly on these tapes 33 and 35 until he has the support engaging his torso at the desired degree of tightness. He will slide the buckle 36 along the tape 35 until he is able to secure it to the hook 34 thereby maintaining the support 10 about the body at the preselected amount of support being imparted to the persons body.
- the free end of the tape 35 will be threaded through the loop 37 to maintain the support 10 at the desired setting of tightness about his body, which setting will remain the same no matter how often the support 10 is removed and replaced on the body unless the person decides to effect a change in degree of support.
- the ends of the tapes 33 and 35 and the panels 17 and 18 are provided with conventional mating fibrous entanglement fasteners 38 such as the Velcro type.
- the support 10 is normally placed loosely about the persons body upon the hooks 20 being engaged by the buckles 21. Then a simple pull on the tapes 33 and. 35 will draw the two halves of support 10 together evenly and smoothly rendering total alignment and proper adjustment to the persons back.
- the steel bars 14 provide the back with the proper upright support force being required and the two pairs of elastic side panels 15, -16 will automatically conform to the thoracic and pelvic areas of the user.
- a support for a persons back comprising a pair of panel members adapted to be fitted about a persons torso at the position of his back, a plurality of fastening members mounted along one edge portion of each of said panel members for securing said panels at the front portion of the torso, a pair of loops mounted on the other edges of each of said panels, said loops of one of said panels being positioned in proximity of a top and bottom edge portion of said panel and substantially equidistant from a longitudinal center line of said panels, said loops of the other of said panels being positioned in proximity of said mid-portion of said panel and substantially equidistant from said longitudinal center line of said panels, a pair of elongated tape members having end portions, said end portions of one of said pair of elongated tape members being secured to said loops positioned in proximity of said top and bottom edge portions, said end portions of the other of said pair of elongated tape members being secured to said loops positioned in proximity of said mid-portion of said panel, a second pair
