Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparel arrangement.
  • the spine is a complex, flexible structure which can change its shape and move in all directions. It consists of vertebrae, intervertebral discs, and intervertebral joints (which are attached to ribs in the thoracic area) which house the spinal cord and the nerves leading out to the body. Protection of this complex and vulnerable structure during sustained or heavy loading which involves the spine can only be achieved by appropriate muscle function which serves to hold the spine in its 'neutral' position.
  • the neutral spine which is formed by three spinal curves (cervical, thoracic and lumbo-sacral curves), is usually described as the ' S' shape, neutral spine position.
  • the curves are formed by the shape of the vertebrae and the intervertebral discs, and, most importantly, by muscles which hold the shape of the three curves.
  • the three curves allow the spine to act as a spring to withstand stress and negate impact loads caused by the vertical force of gravity.
  • the individual curves making up the neutral spine position lie each side of the vertical line of good posture, that is, the imaginary line, viewed from the side, through the mastoid process, centre of the shoulder joint and the centre of the hip joint. Descriptions of the individual curves are as follows:
  • curve of the low back - the concave lumbo-sacral spinal curve also lies in front of the vertical line, and is closely linked to movement of the pelvis and lower limb;
  • the convex thoracic curve is closely linked to movement and position of the scapula and associated upper limb.
  • the scapulo-thoracic muscles mainly serratus anterior
  • the scapulo-thoracic muscles must produce a backwardly directed muscle force on the spine whilst also causing the scapula to become flat against the chest wall.
  • This action can only be produced with concomitant activation and strengthening of the scapulo-thoracic muscles (mainly serratus anterior) through weight-bearing exercise for the upper limb [see the 'weightbearing' test for serratus anterior described in Kendall et al.
  • the neutral spine position is considered important for our musculo -skeletal health as, in this position, the muscles are capable of supporting and protecting the spine from injury. It is particularly the activation and strengthening of muscles that maintain the thoracic curve that has not been addressed in exercises currently used to strengthen the neutral spine.
  • the serratus anterior muscle lies very deep under the large bone of the scapula, so facilitation techniques normally used to activate and train superficial muscles cannot be used.
  • facilitation techniques normally used to activate and train superficial muscles cannot be used.
  • the serratus anterior lies under bone, it cannot be viewed, facilitated or strengthened using real-time ultrasound imaging techniques (which are used as feedback techniques).
  • a specific type of strengthening exercise is required. This consists of an upper limb weight-bearing exercise, with axial (weight-bearing) resistance providing axial-compression longitudinally through the whole upper limb, as well as producing a backwardly directed muscle force to strengthen the curve of the thoracic spine. It is important when performing upper limb weight-bearing exercise that correct postural form is maintained in order to maintain the correct position of the thoracic curve.
  • the user of the exercise device can therefore undertake upper limb weight-bearing exercise to strengthen the scapulo-thoracic muscles (mainly serratus anterior) whilst maintaining correct postural form and thus properly maintaining the curve of the thoracic spine.
  • the exercise device can also be used to maintain correct postural form and thus the correct position of the thoracic curve, during daily activities or when sitting for prolonged periods.
  • the device specifically strengthens the serratus anterior in its weight-bearing role of displacing the thorax posteriorly and holding the scapula flat against the chest wall. This type of exercise strengthens the thoracic curve and in turn strengthens the whole neutral spine position.
  • the deep lumbar core muscles need to be activated and strengthened. By ' stretching tall' and gently narrowing the waist, the lumbar core muscles are activated and this helps maintain the correct postural form for the lumbar curve. It would be desirable to have the same item of apparel that allows the wearer to obtain feedback regarding the position of the thoracic spine and the position of the scapula in relation to the thoracic spine, to also provide feedback to the wearer regarding the ' stretch tall' cue and the narrowing of the waist, thereby allowing the wearer to monitor and maintain the curve of their lumbar curve.
  • an apparel arrangement including:
  • posture sensing means incorporated into or for attaching to the apparel so as to sense the posture of the wearer.
  • the arrangement may include a portable computational device (e.g. mobile phone, tablet, smart watch) for receiving signals from the posture sensing means.
  • the device may be in wireless communication with the posture sensing means.
  • the device may include alarms for generating one or more alarms or sounds responsive to the sensing means sensing poor or incorrect posture and may include data and/or data analytics to indicate postural alignment over time or during activities.
  • the device may monitor postural alignment (and thus activation of the deep spinal core muscles) based upon determining scapula position relative to the thoracic spinal curve (or hunching across the wearer's upper back) and/or the relative narrowing and widening of the wearer's waist.
  • the alarms may be audible or alternatively, the alarms may provide a gentle vibration of the posture sensing means to alert the wearer regarding poor or incorrect posture.
  • the device may not generate each alarm until after a period of poor posture has expired.
  • the posture sensing means may include pressure sensors for sensing pressure.
  • the posture sensing means may include one or more conductors threaded within the apparel.
  • the conductors may include metal fibres within thread.
  • the apparel may include any one or more of: a top, singlet, brassiere, crop top, and compression suit. Furthermore, the apparel can comprise separate top and bottom portions or can be a one-piece article.
  • the posture sensing means may be integrally formed with, or retro-fittable to the apparel.
  • the posture sensing means may sense the postural alignment of the thoracic region of the spine of the wearer.
  • the posture sensing means may be of the type described in
  • the posture sensing means may include pressure sensors located across the upper back of the wearer.
  • the pressure sensors include a triplet of pressure sensors measuring pressure of both scapula and the thoracic curve of the wearer, thereby enabling the neutral position of the spine to be monitored.
  • the posture sensing means may include any electronic means of determining (and monitoring) the position of each scapula relative to the thoracic region of the spine (and whether a particular position across these 3 areas can be maintained).
  • the posture sensing means comprises three sensors, such that two of the sensors are positioned one over each scapula and the third sensor is positioned on the thoracic curve of the wearer.
  • the two sensors positioned over the scapulas are preferably pressure sensors, whilst the sensor positioned on the thoracic curve of the wearer is an angle sensor. That is, the sensor on the thoracic curve, being the central sensor, monitors the position of each scapula sensor relative to the central sensor, thereby monitoring the thoracic curve based on the relative positions of the scapulas and the thoracic region.
  • the posture sensing means comprises a semi- flexible bar incorporated into the top portion of the apparel such that the semi-flexible bar is positioned across the thoracic region of the spine of the wearer of the apparel (over the two scapula and across the thoracic spinal curve) and can monitor the position of each scapula relative to the thoracic curve.
  • the semi-flexible bar can be made from any suitable material.
  • the semi-flexible bar is made from a plastic that has some rigidity, but is sufficiently flexible so as to not be uncomfortable for the wearer.
  • the semi-flexible bar has hinge lines on its interior side (the side adjacent the wearer) such that when the wearer bends forward (or moves their shoulders forward), the semi-flexible bar bends forward to follow the scapula and the curve across the thoracic region.
  • the absence of hinge lines on the exterior side (the side facing outwards from the wearer) prevents the semi-flexible bar from curving outwards when the wearer sits up straight or extends the shoulders back.
  • the semi-flexible bar can further comprise one or more sensors.
  • the semi-flexible bar comprises one sensor. In this preferred embodiment, in use the sensor is at the centre of the semi-flexible bar and so is positioned on the thoracic curve to monitor the the position of the thoracic spine relative to the scapulas.
  • the apparel arrangement can further include a strap system for correct positioning of the posture sensing means across the upper back of the wearer proximal the scapulas and the thoracic curve of the wearer.
  • the strap system can be any suitable combination of straps that will hold the posture sensing means in position.
  • the strap system can be fixed or can be adjustable. Providing a strap system that is adjustable enables the posture sensing means to provide correct feedback irrespective of the relative position of the scapulas with respect to the thoracic curve, which can vary from person to person.
  • the strap system comprises at least one flexible strap.
  • the at least one flexible strap can be made from any suitable material such as a rubberized strip of material. Particularly preferred is the material commonly used in the exercise industry for elastic resistant bands or elastic resistant straps.
  • the strap system preferably comprises straps adapted to fit over the shoulders and under the arms of a wearer, in the form of a harness.
  • the adjustable strap system can comprise any suitable adjustment means.
  • the strap system can thus comprise one or more buckles.
  • the adjustment means can comprise one or more clip devices or tensioners which allow the length of a strap to be adjusted.
  • the strap system comprises a single continuous elastic band of sufficient length to extend from the posture sensing means, over and under each shoulder of a wearer of the apparel.
  • the further posture sensing means to monitor the lumbar curve may sense the posture of the lumbar region of the spine of the wearer and/or any change in the diameter of the waist.
  • the posture sensing means may be of the type described in AU 2007252291.
  • the posture sensing means may include one or more pressure sensors aligned with the waist region of the wearer to determine good postural position and/ or the relative narrowing or widening of the waist.
  • the pressure sensors include a pressure sensor located proximal the belly button of the wearer.
  • the pressure sensor located proximal the belly button senses the force at the waist region of the apparel and can therefore provide a measure of how tight (or loose) the apparel is at the waist of the wearer and monitor changes to this pressure on the waist.
  • the posture sensing means may include any electronic means of determining (and monitoring) the narrowing and widening of the waist relative to the standard resting waist position.
  • the posture sensing means to monitor the lumbar curve may comprise a belt.
  • the belt can be made from any suitable material such as a rubberized strip of material and therefore has elastic properties.
  • the belt can be made from a non-elastic material.
  • the belt can be fixed or can be adjustable.
  • the adjustable belt can comprise any suitable adjustment means, including a buckle or one or more clip devices or tensioners.
  • the adjustable belt is incorporated into the waist region of the item of apparel and allows the pressure of the lumbar sensing means at the waist region of the apparel to be adjusted.
