Definitions

  • the invention relates to movement devices for stimulating the circulation and for the therapy of vascular diseases of the legs.
  • US Pat. No. 4,159,111 describes such a device with two pedals, which are connected to one another by a two-armed rocker arm, the pivot axis of which is perpendicular runs to the swivel axis of the pedals.
  • the effort required for actuation can be adjusted using a friction brake on the swivel axis of the swivel lever.
  • the pedals are each connected to a bellows and these bellows are coupled to one another by a connecting line. While the force required for actuation can be adjusted in one case by means of a friction brake, an adjustable valve in the connecting line serves this purpose.
  • the invention aims to provide a movement device of this type with active actuation which is more pleasant for the user to operate and is therapeutically more effective than the devices described above. With these devices, a movement must be initiated from a standstill each time you change foot from one foot to the other, which requires more effort than the subsequent movement. In addition, the devices that have become known require a user conscious pedaling. However, this is a decisive disadvantage if you want to use the therapy at the same time while performing other activities, such as sitting at a table. The invention aims to create a device that reduces this dead center effect, which makes unconscious pedaling possible without switching off the active actuation.
  • the flywheel ensures that at least the respective dead centers are easily overcome.
  • flywheel also allows a comfortable, smooth-running and precisely adjustable brake to be attached, which means that the effort required to move the ankle can be precisely controlled.
  • pedals can also be equipped with foot reflex zone massage plates.
  • FIGS 2 and 3 show the mechanism.
  • the rotatable parts are mounted in a frame 1. They comprise a crank system 2 with a shaft 21 which carries a disk 22 at both ends, which is provided with a crank pin 23.
  • a large toothed wheel 24 is fastened on the shaft 21, which drives a toothed pinion 31 by means of a toothed belt 25, which is fastened on an intermediate shaft 30.
  • a further large toothed wheel 32 is fastened on this intermediate shaft 30, which in turn drives a toothed pinion 41 on the flywheel shaft 40 on which the flywheel 42 is fastened by means of a toothed belt 33.
  • the Ueber so constructed Settlement gear causes a ratio of about 1 to 30 between the crankshaft 21 and the flywheel shaft 40th
  • a bearing block 43 On one side of the frame 1, a bearing block 43 is attached, on which a brake lever 45 is articulated at 44. Since the braking force needs to be very low due to the large gear ratio in order to achieve a significant effect, the brake lever is balanced by a weight 46. The braking force is adjusted by moving the weight 47 along the lever 45. The lever is provided with a brake lining 48 on the underside.
  • the mechanism is attached to a base plate 5 and covered by a hood 51. Through a slot 58 (see FIG. 4), only the handle of the displaceable loading weight 47 protrudes from the hood 51.
  • FIG. 1 shows the left pedal 50 in a view from the inside.
  • the sliding block (26) is preferably made of Teflon (WZ) so that no lubrication is required. Instead of the sliding blocks, too Ball bearings are used.
  • the pedal 50 has a foot plate 54 which is pivotally connected to the base plate 5 by means of the hinge 55. Aprons 56, 57 are attached to the front and rear of the footplate, which provide cover to the outside. An apron that is not visible in the drawing is also attached to the outward-facing side of the pedal.
  • a reflex zone massage mat which is shaped like the sole of the foot and has pins of different heights can be attached to the footplate.
  • Such a mat 60 is shown in FIG. 4, the pins of which are indicated by a dotted surface.
  • FIG. 4 shows a flat reflex zone massage plate 61 which covers almost the entire foot plate 54 of the pedal.
  • Each desired reflex zone of the foot of a user can be individually stimulated by means of mushroom-shaped massage elements 62 that can be attached to different places on the footplate, as shown in FIG. So that these massage elements 62 can be conveniently attached, the mat itself is detachably fastened on the foot plate 54 by means of pins 63.
  • crank pin 23 is not diametrically opposite one another achieves that the movement device can always be set in motion from a standstill.
  • Toothed belts and correspondingly toothed wheels are preferably used in the transmission gear. However, other transmission elements can also be used.
