Description

DISPOSITIF DE FERMETURE POUR CORSET ORTHOPEDIQUE
A TROIS ELEMENTS PRESSEURS.CLOSURE DEVICE FOR ORTHOPEDIC CORSET
WITH THREE PRESSING ELEMENTS.

La presente invention concerne un dispositif de fermeture à levier pour corset orthopédique à trois éléments presseurs. The present invention relates to a lever closure device for an orthopedic corset with three pressing elements.

Il est connu que les corsets orthopédiques pour hyperextension,du type à trois éléments presseurs, comprennent une structure à corniche qui porte les deux éléments presseurs antérieurs dans les zones sternale et pubienne respectivement et une plaque portant l'élément presseur postérieur dans la zone lombaire. Ladite plaque postérieure est supportée par un ruban dont la mise en traction et le blocage sont obtenus au moyen d'une boucle, d'un tendeur ou de bandes velcro. It is known that orthopedic corsets for hyperextension, of the type with three pressing elements, comprise a cornice structure which carries the two anterior pressing elements in the sternal and pubic areas respectively and a plate carrying the posterior pressing element in the lumbar zone. Said rear plate is supported by a ribbon, the tensioning and blocking of which are obtained by means of a loop, a tensioner or velcro strips.

Avec ces dispositifs connus, la longueur du ruban doit etre prédéterminée en fonction des dimensions corporelles du porteur et son réglage doit être effectué avant d'endosser le corset. En outre, l'accrochage du ruban à la corniche anté rieure, lequel doit être effectué après - avoir endossé le corset, exige un effort considérable. With these known devices, the length of the ribbon must be predetermined according to the body dimensions of the wearer and its adjustment must be made before putting on the corset. In addition, the attachment of the ribbon to the anterior cornice, which must be carried out after having put on the corset, requires considerable effort.

Il est également connu un dispositif qui permet d'endosser le corset avec ledit ruban déjà accroché à la corniche antérieure, la mise en traction étant effectuée par la suite. A device is also known which allows the corset to be put on with said strip already attached to the anterior cornice, the tensioning being carried out subsequently.

Un tel dispositif comprend un levier actionnable avec la main gauche, par un mouvement vertical du haut vers le bas, mais présente un encombrement notable dans le plan vertical et l'adaptabilité du corset aux différentes formes du corps du porteur reste limitée. De-plus, il s'avère difficile à manipuler, en particulier pour les personnes agées qui, dans la plupart des cas, doivent recourir à l'aide d'autres personnes pour endosser le corset.Such a device comprises a lever operable with the left hand, by a vertical movement from top to bottom, but has a significant bulk in the vertical plane and the adaptability of the corset to the different shapes of the body of the wearer remains limited. In addition, it is difficult to handle, especially for the elderly who, in most cases, must resort to the help of other people to don the corset.

La présente invention a pour but d'éliminer les inconvénients précités. The present invention aims to eliminate the aforementioned drawbacks.

Ce résultat a été atteint conformément à l'invention en adoptant l'idée d'accrocher l'extrémité libre du ruban, associé à la plaque portant l'élément presseur postérieur d'un corset orthopédique à trois éléments presseurs, à un élément de liaison qui est articulé sur un levier horizontal étroit, lequel est relié à son tour à une plaque fixée latéra- lement sur la corniche du corset, et de manière que le pivot de l'élément de liaison soit désaxé par rapport à 1-' axe d'articulation du levier, lorsque ce dernier est en position fermée. This result was achieved in accordance with the invention by adopting the idea of hooking the free end of the ribbon, associated with the plate carrying the posterior pressing element of an orthopedic corset with three pressing elements, to a connecting element. which is articulated on a narrow horizontal lever, which in turn is connected to a plate fixed laterally on the cornice of the corset, and so that the pivot of the connecting element is offset from the axis of the articulation of the lever, when the latter is in the closed position.

Les avantages obtenus avec la présente invention consistent notamment dans le fait que: -au moyen d'un seul dispositif, il est possible de réaliser la
mise en traction du ruban et le blocage en position tendue; -ce dispositif est facilement manoeuvrable pour n'importe qui
à l'aide d'une seule main,aussi bien la droite que la gauche
et qu'il permet donc également aux personnes agées d'endos
ser le corset sans l'aide de quiconque; -l'encombrement réduit dans le plan vertical permet de mode
ler parfaitement le montant correspondant de la corniche du
corset,en relation avec les différentes structures physiques
du corps du porteur; -la fermeture du dispositif est maintenue automatiquement par
la traction du ruban tendu;; -et qu'un tel dispositif est de fabrication et d'application
faciles, sur n'importe quel type de corset orthopédique à
trois éléments presseurs.The advantages obtained with the present invention consist in particular in the fact that: by means of a single device, it is possible to carry out the
pulling the ribbon and blocking it in the stretched position; - this device is easily maneuverable for anyone
with one hand, both right and left
and so it also allows people with backing
tighten the corset without the help of anyone; -the reduced footprint in the vertical plane allows mode
ler perfectly the corresponding amount of the cornice of the
corset, in relation to the different physical structures
the body of the wearer; -the closing of the device is automatically maintained by
pulling the stretched ribbon; -and that such a device is of manufacture and application
easy, on any type of orthopedic corset
three pressing elements.

Ces avantages et caractéristiques de l'invention, ainsi que d'autres, seront bien et mieux compris à la lumière de la description qui va suivre, donnée à titre d'exemple pratique uniquement, et en référence aux planches de dessins annexés, sur lesquels: - la figure 1 représente une vue d'ensemble d'un corset ortho
pédique à trois éléments presseurs, pourvu d'un dispositif
de fermeture conforme à l'invention; - la figure 2 représente une vue détaillée du dispositif de
fermeture avec le levier d'actionnement en position ouverte - la figure 3 représente une vue de face, en partie en coupe,
du dispositif de fermeture de la figure 2.These advantages and characteristics of the invention, as well as others, will be better and better understood in the light of the description which follows, given by way of practical example only, and with reference to the plates of attached drawings, in which : - Figure 1 shows an overview of an ortho corset
pedicure with three pressing elements, provided with a device
closure according to the invention; - Figure 2 shows a detailed view of the device
closing with the actuating lever in the open position - FIG. 3 represents a front view, partly in section,
of the closing device of figure 2.

Réduit à sa structure essentielle, et en référence aux dessins annexés, un dispositif de fermeture pour corset orthopédique à trois éléments presseurs en conformité avec l'invention, comprend: -une plaque métallique 1 en forme de boite, avec une section
transversale en forme de C et ouverte à ses extrémités, et
qui est fixée horizontalement par son fond 10 sur un des
montants 2 de la corniche antérieure 3 d'un corset orthopé
dique à trois éléments presseurs PI, P2, P3,au moyen de deux
vis 4 qui prennent dans deux trous filetés correspondants 20
dudit montant 2; -un levier métallique 5 en forme de boite, avec une section
transversale en forme de "C" renversé par rapport à celui de
la plaque 1. Ce levier est articulé à une extrémité sur la
dite plaque par un axe 6, de manière à se trouver, en posi
tion fermée, disposé autour de cette dernière.Une petite
protubérance hémisphérique 50, faisant avantageusement sail
lie vers l'intérieur d'un des flancs du levier, est destinée
à venir se loger, avec un léger effort élastique, dans un
orifice correspondant Il de ladite plaque 1, et qui permet
d'indiquer à l'utilisateur l'arrivée du levier 5 en position
de fin de course de fermeture; -un élément de liaison 7, avec un axe 8 pour l'accrochage de
l'élément de traction (ou ruban) 9 qui est relié à la plaque
de l'élément presseur postérieur P3 du corset.Cet élément de
traction est articulé sur ledit levier 5 au moyen d'un pivot
51,parallèle à l'axe 6,et positionné de manière à se trouver
lorsque le levier est fermé, désaxé par rapport à l'articu
lation 6 du levier 5 lui-même et donc en mesure de maintenir
ce dernier en position fermée par effet de la traction du
ruban 9, une fois tendu lors de la fermeture du levier 5.Reduced to its essential structure, and with reference to the accompanying drawings, a closure device for an orthopedic corset with three pressing elements in accordance with the invention, comprises: a metal plate 1 in the form of a box, with a section
C-shaped and open at its ends, and
which is fixed horizontally by its bottom 10 on one of the
uprights 2 of the anterior cornice 3 of an orthopedic corset
three pressure elements PI, P2, P3, by means of two
screws 4 which take in two corresponding threaded holes 20
of said amount 2; -a metallic lever 5 in the shape of a box, with a section
transverse in the shape of "C" overturned compared to that of
plate 1. This lever is articulated at one end on the
said plate by an axis 6, so as to be in posi
closed, arranged around the latter.
hemispherical protuberance 50, advantageously making sail
towards the inside of one of the sides of the lever, is intended
to be housed, with a slight elastic force, in a
corresponding orifice II of said plate 1, and which allows
to indicate to the user the arrival of lever 5 in position
closing limit switch; -a connecting element 7, with an axis 8 for the attachment of
the traction element (or ribbon) 9 which is connected to the plate
of the posterior presser element P3 of the corset.
traction is articulated on said lever 5 by means of a pivot
51, parallel to axis 6, and positioned so as to be
when the lever is closed, offset from the articu
lation 6 of lever 5 itself and therefore able to maintain
the latter in the closed position by the effect of the traction of the
ribbon 9, once stretched when closing lever 5.

Le fonctionnement.est le suivant:
Le corset, une fois endosse avec le levier 5 ouvert, c'est-àdire écarté de la plaque 1 et avec le ruban 9 détendu, on tourne horizontalement le levier 5 dans le sens de sa fermeture et jusqu'à buter contre la base 10 de la plaque 1. Immédiatement avant ladite butée, l'enclenchement 50, 11 avertit l'utilisateur que la fermeture du levier 5 a été effectuée.The operation is as follows:
The corset, once donned with the lever 5 open, that is to say moved away from the plate 1 and with the relaxed tape 9, the lever 5 is turned horizontally in the direction of its closing and until it abuts against the base 10 of the plate 1. Immediately before said stop, the engagement 50, 11 warns the user that the closing of the lever 5 has been carried out.

Dans ces conditions, le ruban 9 du corset est bloqué en position tendue. Under these conditions, the ribbon 9 of the corset is locked in the stretched position.

Dans la pratique, les détails de réalisation peuvent cependant varier de manière équivalente dans la forme, les dimensions, la disposition des éléments, la nature des matériaux utilisés, sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'idée de solution adoptée et, par conséquent, en restant dans les limites de la protection accordée par les revendications ciaprès.  In practice, the details of construction may however vary in an equivalent manner in the form, the dimensions, the arrangement of the elements, the nature of the materials used, without however departing from the framework of the idea of solution adopted and, consequently, remaining within the limits of the protection afforded by the claims below.
