Definitions

  • the invention relates to an anatomically shaped air bubble mat.
  • the invention is based on bubble mats of conventional design, as they have been used for decades.
  • an air bubble mat has become known from DE-GM 78 18 875, which is tapered at the head end. This makes sense insofar as the mat lying in the tub, following the tub slope, has a kink that would lead to annoying folds on the edge without the taper.
  • Air bubble mats are also known in which, in addition to the head end, the foot end is tapered.
  • the taper at the foot end is also justified from the anatomy, the taper at the head end neglects one of the most important areas of the musculoskeletal system, namely the shoulders.
  • US-A-41 22 846 discloses an air bubble mat composed of elements, which also includes rectangular areas for different body regions are divided. However, apart from the task-related assignment to individual body regions that appears in the description of the drawing, genuine anatomical congruence is not evident. In particular, the frequent complaints that require particularly intensive treatment are not taken into account.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore the further development of a generic air bubble mat in such a way that at least the most important and most frequently affected areas of the musculoskeletal system are deliberately detected by the bubbling / bubbling generated.
  • the air bubble mat in the uppermost head quarter has two lateral wing-like bulges for the shoulders, that indentations to the foot thereof Middle are provided that approximately the two middle quarters have the maximum width of the air bubble mat, that the foot end in an S-shaped contour is approximately tapered to the width that remains between the indentations in the top quarter of the head, that the formation of the Bubbles and pearl bubbles are made by exchangeable badges and that the badges, corresponding to the predilection sites of rheumatic diseases, are arranged on the one hand in groups and on the other hand along interlocking curves which roughly correspond to the course of the muscle traction, i.e. corresponding to the back of the head, neck, shoulder girdle, Spine, sciatica, hip joint, thighs and feet.
  • a main feature of the present air bubble mat are the protruding bulges for the shoulders on the top, top quarter.
  • the two middle quarters of the air bubble mat have the maximum width specified by the bathtub.
  • the mat is indented towards the middle between the bulges for the shoulders and the two middle quarters. This is necessary so that it does not swell or wrinkle on the sides at the transition to the head-end tub slope.
  • the mat tapers towards the foot end in an S-shaped contour approximately to the width that remains between the indentations.
  • the bubbling / bubbling is done from plaques, which are preferably arranged in anatomical groups and curves, according to the predilection sites for pain / tension.
  • groups are provided for the very often painful tendon insertions on the back of the head, for the spine, for the shoulders or also for the hip region.
  • the mat can also have sufficient expansion and / or support elements for the shoulders and / or a plug-in and removable or rotatable multi-function air feed and / or one or more handles on the mat circumference or on the mat surface, preferably with height-adjustable seat / lying pads feature.
  • Relocation or erection aids can also preferably be located on the mat surface or on the mat circumference, e.g. in the form of loops, reins or pedunculated handles, with which it is also possible for the bathers with restricted mobility to take up the desired position relatively effortlessly.
  • Fig. 1 shows a top view of the air bubble mat 1.
  • the air bubble mat has two wing-like bulges 1a on the top head quarter for the shoulders of the bathing person. At the foot thereof, indentations 1b are provided towards the center. The following two middle quarters approximately have the maximum width of the air bubble mat. The foot end is tapered approximately to the width in an S-shaped contour 1c, which remains between the indentations 1b in the uppermost quarter at the top.
  • exchangeable badges 2 are provided in the mat 1, through which one Air flow emerges, which is generated for example by a compressor.
  • the effervescent piquettes 2 are preferably arranged, corresponding to the predilection sites of rheumatic diseases, on the one hand in groups and, on the other hand, along interlocking curves 2a - 2i, which roughly correspond to the course of the muscle tracts, that is, appropriately corresponding to the back of the head, neck, shoulder girdle, spine, sciatica, Hip joint, thighs and feet of the bathing person.
  • the air bubble mat 1 preferably consists of two foils welded together.
  • a center line 2a formed from bubble plaques 2 with an arrangement of the plaques 2 split upside down in the manner of a letter Y can be provided.
  • the mat 1 has an air feed 4, which is preferably arranged in the direction of the foot end and is designed, for example, as a multi-function air feed 4.
  • the air feed 4 can be designed to be pluggable. In addition, it can be designed to be rotatable and pivotable.
  • handles 5, 6 can be incorporated.
  • relocation or erection aids can be attached to the mat 2 and on the mat circumference.
  • seat / lying pads 3 attached, which can be adjustable in height.
  • additional support elements 7, for example for the shoulders are located in the shoulder / head area and are expediently designed to be height-adjustable.
  • a handle is expediently formed at the head end of the mat 1.
  • Closable openings can be incorporated on the bottom and top of the mat to accelerate drying out after use.
  • Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 illustrate the different positions of the buttocks / back for the (full) bath and the seat (half) bath.
  • the buttocks are on the foot part of the seat cover 3, in the hip bath, however, on the head part.
  • the anatomical assignment of the badge groups applies from 2b - 2g for the bath, from 2h - 2i for the hip bath.
  • the support elements 7 and a preferably existing neck cushion 8 only function when the bath is in place and then support the shoulders or the back of the head / neck.
