  • the machine is probably suitable for use in weight- loss clinics, but is likely to be unsuitable for the home use market.
  • the passive exercise cushion disclosed by Feldman in US Patent no. 4,759,543 is used in combination with a chair backrest and is aimed at preventing back pain.
  • the cushion includes a plurality of air-inflatable members. The volume of air in the pouch can be controlled, but once inflated remains static rather than being dynamic.
  • a series of electrically driven foot and arm exercisers marketed by Anelco include a model named “medica thera vital” intended for use by clinics and rehabilitation centers which can be used by a person sitting in a wheelchair.
  • a similar device but intended for leg exercise and for home use is sold by "Tecogics Scientific Limited” Ottawa, Canada.
  • an inflatable- deflatable passive exercise unit comprising a multiplicity of gas-impermeable flexible compartments each being dimensioned and positioned to repeatedly raise and lower a specific part of the body of a person supported thereby, each compartment being connectable to a gas inlet-outlet valve means, said valve means being provided with valve control means and being connectable to a source of compressed gas for cyclically inflating and deflating at least one predetermined compartment.
  • a passive exercise unit comprising a mattress-like structure comprising a multiplicity of independently inflatable compartments, said source of compressed gas being an air compressor, and said exercise unit providing passive exercise for a patient lying prone thereon.
  • a passive exercise unit being a garment.
  • the invention also provides method for passively exercising a prone person, comprising the steps a) providing a unit comprising a multiplicity of individually inflatable/deflatable compartments; b) supporting said unit on a surface; c) inflating at least one compartment to move a limb segment of said person; d) deflating said compartment to allow passive return of said limb segment; and e) repeating steps c) and d) cyclically.
  • each air pocket has its own control valve.
  • the minimum number of control valves needed corresponds to the number of pockets in use simultaneously.
  • Flexible tubes extending from these control valves can be connected to the inflatable pockets and disconnected therefrom as required when the number of air pockets exceeds the number of valves provided.
  • each air compartment is permanently connected to its own control valve. Thus the unit is ready for immediate use to meet the needs of the many different needs of patients being treated.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a preferred embodiment of the unit as a mattress for home use according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a compartment having a concave upper surface
  • FIG. 3 is similar to FIG. 1 except that the unit is configured for institutional use;
  • FIG. 4a is a perspective view of the unit as an upper garment

  • FIG. 5 is an elevational view showing the garment being used by a person lying on a floor carpet
  • FIG. 6 is an elevational view showing the garment being used by a person sitting on a chair
  • FIG. 7 is a perspective view of the garment providing exercise to a wheelchair user.
  • FIG. 8 is an elevational view of the garment providing exercise to a more severely handicapped user of an electric wheelchair.
  • FIG. 1 There is seen in FIG. 1 an inflatable-deflatable passive exercise unit 10.
  • a multiplicity of gas-impermeable flexible compartments 12 are each dimensioned and positioned to repeatedly raise and lower a specific part of the body, such as the head, an arm or a leg, of a person supported thereby.
  • Each compartment 12 is provided with a tube fitting 14 connectable to a gas inlet-outlet valve 16.
  • Each valve 16 is provided with valve control means, in the present embodiment the valves being manually operated, 3-way, and controlled by push buttons 18. Air exhaust is effected through the same compressed air tubes 20 as is used for inflation, except that the valve 16 directs the returning air to its exhaust port 22.
  • control is by the user. If the user is unable to operate the control push buttons 18, control can be in the hands of an attendant.
  • valves 16 are provided, which are connected to the two compartments 12a, 12b presently in use and shown inflated.
  • the remaining compartments 12 are brought into use by transferring the compressed air tubes 20 to the compartments 12 desired for operation.
  • the exercise unit 10 is connectable to a source of compressed gas.
  • a large compressed gas cylinder 24 fitted with a pressure-reducer 26 may be more suitable than an air compressor.
  • the gas in the cylinder 24 will usually be air, but any other low-cost readily available inert gas such as nitrogen or carbon dioxide, and possibly oxygen could be used.
  • An air compressor can be used in locations where some noise is unobjectionable; for home use the compressor can be small.
  • the passive exercise unit 10 comprises the upper layer of a mattress.
  • the head of the user is intended to rest on compartment 12c.
  • FIG. 2 there is seen a detail of a passive exercise unit wherein at least one of the compartments 28 is formed having an upper concave face 30 dimensioned to support a body limb such as an arm, a leg or the head resting thereon.
  • the concave surface 30 obviates the need to strap the limb to the compartment.
  • An internal stay 32 retains the concave section under pressure.
  • FIG. 3 illustrates diagrammatically a passive exercise unit 34 more adapted for the use of hospitals and clinics.
  • valves 36 corresponds with the number of compartments 38 on the unit. Each valve 36 is permanently attached to an inflatable/deflatable compartment. Valves 36 are arranged to be electrically operated and electronically controlled by a programmable logic controller (PLC) 39.

  • the compartments 46 of the garments are positioned to engage and lift individual limb segments of the body of a person wearing either or both garments.
  • An inflation-deflation cycle resulting from operation of the valve 16 seen in FIG. 1 , controlling the selected compartment 46, causes reciprocating movement of at least one limb segment.
  • Air inflation/deflation valves are connected individually to pockets "A" and "B".
  • the wearer is lying face down, for example on a floor carpet, which contacts the compartments 46 "A” and 46 "B”.
  • both compartments are inflated, the thorax is raised.
  • On deflation the thorax is lowered. If only "A” or "B” is inflated, the thorax will be twisted.
  • compartments 46 "E” extending over the elbow area causes oscillation of the forearm relative to the upper arm, without needing to press against an external reaction surface.
  • compartments 46 "C” and “D” extend over the knee surface. Inflation/deflation of these compartments causes oscillation of the calf relative to the thigh, also without needing to press against an external reaction surface.
  • FIGS. 4c and 4d represent a limb sleeve 48 sized for fitting over the elbow or the knee. Inflation of the membrane 50 surrounding the sleeve straightens the sleeve 48 and the arm or leg contained therein. Deflation, as seen in FIG. 4c, allows the limb to be restored to its original bent position.
  • FIG. 5 shows a passive exercise garment 52, wherein the compartments 54 of the garment are disposed between individual limb segments 56 of the body of a person and a support surface 58, for example a floor carpet 60 or bed (not shown) used by the person.
