  • mechanotherapy uses a wide variety of devices and devices, such as tables, wheels, cages with weights and pulleys, tractions, pedal boards, etc.
  • Mechanotherapy is a medical prescription and must be exclusively prescribed by a physiotherapist to guarantee the effectiveness of the treatment.
  • the first mechanotherapy devices were created in Sweden in 1910, and they were perfected and modified continuously, however, these first devices fell progressively into disuse due to the complexity of their installation and the economic outlay that their acquisition entailed.
  • the current interest of mechanotherapy is that the patient can perform exercises with a healing purpose.
  • Orthopedic braces for knees are sometimes the solution to anatomical or joint problems, they also help to correct postural defects or pains.
  • the knee is one of our most vulnerable joints due to the efforts it is subjected to on a daily basis (running, walking, kneeling, lifting, crossing the legs when sitting, etc.). Most knee problems are related to continuous wear and tear and the natural aging process, with arthritis as one of the most common pathologies.
  • the knees suffer an injury or distension caused by a repetitive movement.

  • the patent US6966882 (B2), refers to a device that includes an actuator, a joint position sensor, a muscle strain sensor and a control system, but does not refer to integrate additional functions, where it can clearly be seen that It lacks the application of several therapies applied simultaneously, which are mechanical, electrical and thermal therapy, nor does it refer to having a servo linear actuator, as well as it also lacks with a wireless control which can be operated by a mobile device.
  • patent US8574176 (B2) refers to a mechanical traction system powered by biometric signals, angle and torque sensors, but does not mention containing a textile support with electro-thermal channels that improve the efficiency of therapy, also lacks electro-stimulators and a Wireless control port to be controlled by means of a smart mobile device.

Abstract

Selon la présente invention, un appareil de rééducation physiothérapeutique du genou présente la caractéristique de comprendre un système sans fil d'un module bluetooth qui est relié à un dispositif mobile intelligent, permettant de commander ledit appareil à distance et en temps réel, établissant les paramètres requis pour la rééducation qui comprennent la thérapie mécanique, l'angle de flexion et la force exercée sur l'extrémité à traiter pouvant être programmés, un incrément ou un décrément du mouvement mécanique étant obtenu suivant les besoins de l'utilisateur. Une autre des caractéristiques que comporte l'appareil pour la rééducation physiothérapeutique du genou est la commande des impulsions électriques envoyées à l'extrémité par le même dispositif intelligent, lesdites impulsions électriques pouvant être augmentées ou diminuées et agissant comme analgésique pour diminuer l'inconfort pendant l'application de la thérapie. Enfin, ledit appareil présente la caractéristique de commander l'application de la température dans la région affectée, laquelle aide à diminuer l'inconfort pendant la thérapie, puisque lors de l'acheminement de la chaleur à la zone touchée, elle agit comme analgésique pour une meilleure application de ladite thérapie.
