Beschreibung [0001] Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Massage eines Unterschenkels im Bereich zumindest einer Vena perforans mit einem durch das Auftreten des Fußes betätigbaren Basispolster und zumindest einer im Bereich einer Vena perforans angeordneten Druckblase, wobei die Innenräume des Basispolsters und der zumindest einen Druckblase eine Schlauchverbindung aufweisen und mit einem Arbeitsfluid gefüllt sind.The invention relates to a device for massage of a lower leg in the region of at least one vena perforans with an operable by the occurrence of the foot base pad and at least one arranged in the region of a vena perforans pressure bladder, wherein the interiors of the base pad and the at least one pressure bladder Have hose connection and are filled with a working fluid.
[0002] Vorrichtungen zum Behandeln unterschiedlicher Beinleiden, wie zum Beispiel Krampfadern, chronische Venenentzündung, chronisch venöser Insuffizienz sowie der Nachbehandlung oder Vorbeugung von Thrombosen, werden in letzter Zeit vermehrt nachgefragt. Der bei solchen Leiden auftretende Blutstau ruft irreversible Schädigungen hervor, so dass Maßnahmen ergriffen werden müssen, um den Unterschenkel besser zu durchbluten.Devices for treating various leg disorders, such as varicose veins, chronic phlebitis, chronic venous insufficiency and the aftertreatment or prevention of thrombosis, are increasingly in demand recently. The congestion that occurs in such conditions causes irreversible damage, so that measures must be taken to better bleed the lower leg.
[0003] In diesem Zusammenhang ist aus der EP 1 296 632 B1 eine in den Schuh einsetzbare Halterung bekannt geworden, die einen Bodenteil und einen nach oben ragenden Seitenteil aufweist. Am Bodenteil ist ein Bodenpolster befestigt, der mit einer Blase im Seitenteil über eine gegabelte, schlauchartige Verbindung in Strömungsverbindung steht. Beim Auftreten des Fußes wird durch das Körpergewicht aus dem Bodenpolster ein Arbeitsfluid gepumpt, mit welchem die Blase im Seitenteil der Vorrichtung beaufschlagt wird. Die Blase ist über einer Vena per-forantis auf der hinteren Knöchelinnenseite befestigt, so dass beim Gehen des Benutzers dieser Bereich des Unterschenkels massiert wird. Nachteilig bei der bekannten Vorrichtung ist deren komplexer Aufbau sowie deren Anwendung durch den Benutzer, der die Vorrichtung erst in den Schuh einsetzen und diese danach am Fuß befestigen muss. Eine Ähnliche Vorrichtung mit einer Druckblase in einem Bodenteil und einer damit verbundenen Blase im Bereich der Vena perforans ist aus der US 2009/0204037 A1 bekannt.In this context, EP 1 296 632 B1 discloses a holder that can be inserted into the shoe, which has a bottom part and an upwardly projecting side part. At the bottom part of a bottom pad is attached, which is in fluid communication with a bubble in the side part via a forked, hose-like connection. When the foot occurs, a working fluid is pumped by the body weight from the bottom cushion, with which the bladder is acted upon in the side part of the device. The bladder is attached over a vein per-forantis on the back of the ankle, so that when the user walks, this area of the lower leg is massaged. A disadvantage of the known device is its complex structure and its application by the user, who must first use the device in the shoe and then attach it to the foot. A similar device with a pressure bladder in a bottom part and an associated bladder in the region of the vena perforans is known from US 2009/0204037 A1.
[0004] Weiters ist aus der AT 506 213 A4 ein Strumpf oder Socken bekannt, welcher in zwei den Unterschenkel umfassenden Bereichen verstärkt oder unterfüttert ausgeführt ist. Mit einem Band das einen Klettverschluss aufweist, kann im Knöchelbereich ein Stützwiderstand hergestellt werden. Mit dem Band kann auch die Passform und der Tragekomfort der Vorrichtung erhöht werden, wobei das Band mit Füllkörpern für Flüssigkeiten oder pulverartigen Granulaten ausgestattet ist, die über kommunizierende Verbindungen Zusammenhängen. Eine gezielte Beeinflussung einzelner Transfervenen ist mit dieser Vorrichtung allerdings nicht möglich.Furthermore, a stocking or socks is known from AT 506 213 A4, which is reinforced or underfed in two areas comprising the lower leg. With a band that has a hook and loop fastener, a support resistance can be produced in the ankle area. The band can also be used to increase the fit and wearing comfort of the device, the band being provided with liquid or powdery granules which are connected via communicating connections. However, a targeted influencing of individual transfer veins is not possible with this device.
[0005] Aus der US 2007/0167884 A1 ist eine Vorrichtung für eine Unterdrucktherapie bekannt, welche in einem Kniestrumpf eine mit der Ferse betätigbare Fußblase mit Ein- und Auslassventilen aufweist. Der Kniestrumpf weist am oberen Rand ein Band auf, mit welchem ein luftdichter Abschluss zur Extremität hergestellt wird. Durch Be- und Entlasten der Fußblase wird durch Abpumpen der Luft ein Unterdrück im Kniestrumpf hergestellt. Zur Versorgung einer im Bereich der Vena perforans angeordneten Druckblase ist die Vorrichtung allerdings nicht geeignet.From US 2007/0167884 A1 a device for a negative pressure therapy is known, which has in a knee sock an operable with the heel foot bladder with inlet and outlet valves. The knee-highs have a band at the upper edge, with which an airtight conclusion to the extremity is made. By loading and unloading of the foot bladder is made by pumping the air, a suppression in knee socks. To supply a arranged in the region of the vena perforans pressure bladder, however, the device is not suitable.
[0006] Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art derart zu verbessern, dass sowohl deren Herstellung als auch deren Anwendung und Tragekomfort verbessert werden.The object of the invention is to improve a device of the type mentioned in such a way that both their production and their use and comfort are improved.
[0007] Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass die Einheit aus Basispolster, Schlauchverbindung und zumindest einer Druckblase in einem Kniestrumpf integriert ist, wobei die Vorrichtung drei parallel oder seriell angeordnete Druckblasen aufweist, die an Stellen des Kniestrumpfes angeordnet sind, die den Cocket-Venen, Cocket I, Cocket II und Cocket III, jeweils an der Innenseite des Unterschenkels, zugeordnet sind.This object is achieved in that the unit of base pad, hose connection and at least one pressure bladder is integrated in a knee sock, wherein the device has three parallel or serially arranged pressure bubbles, which are arranged at locations of the knee sock, the Cocket- Veins, Cocket I, Cocket II and Cocket III, each on the inside of the lower leg, are assigned.
[0008] Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn der Kniestrumpf im Bereich jeder Druckblase ein stufenlos verstellbares Band aufweist, mit welchem die jeweilige Druckblase exakt am Unterschenkel positionierbar und der jeweils gewünschte Druck individuell einstellbar ist.It is particularly advantageous if the knee sock has a continuously adjustable band in the region of each pressure bladder, with which the respective pressure bladder can be positioned exactly on the lower leg and the respective desired pressure can be individually adjusted.
[0009] Die Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand von Zeichnungen näher erläutert. Es zeigen Fig. 1 die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung in einer schematischen Darstellung, Fig. 2 eine Ausführungsvariante der Erfindung in einer Darstellung gemäß Fig. 1, sowie Fig. 3 die Lage der 1 /4The invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to drawings. 1 shows the device according to the invention in a schematic representation, FIG. 2 shows an embodiment of the invention in a representation according to FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 shows the position of FIG
