Problems solved by technology

Known reclining orthoses still cannot achieve this in a proper manner
[0003] Known reclining orthoses also suffer from the complex structure, and the rigid construction of the bandages and tension straps, which are only designed to provide a specific support effect but cannot adequately adapt to specific indication positions, treatment requirements, and / or any given anatomical condition
In particular, depending on the phase of motion when the patient is moving, the supporting effect is not achieved because known reclining orthoses do not adequately follow the motion
Furthermore, the patient has difficulty applying known reclining orthoses, since the patient himself cannot apply the mechanical forces necessary for the straightening and supporting effect, in particular traction or tension

Embodiment Construction

[0020] The invention will now be described in more detail using the embodiments depicted in the drawings, without construing them as specific limitations. Any individual feature of the invention shown in the drawings may be part of an embodiment of the invention and does not include any optional feature also depicted. figure 1 An oblique rear view is shown of a reclining orthosis according to the invention applied to a patient. At the pelvic girdle 30 , two lockable bandage ends 31 , 32 are wrapped around the pelvis with guaranteed tensile strength, and the pelvic girdle 30 is firmly connected to the reclining splint 10 . The reclining splint 10 consists of a reclining core inside a fenestrated pocket. The anchor loops 71 of the straps 23, 24 hang in the anchor points 16 of the tail 12 of the reclining splint. Straps 23, 24 pass from these anchor points 16 in the tail 12 through the iliac crest at the patient's flanks towards the front, where they respectively form the shoul...

Abstract

The invention relates to a recliner-type orthosis comprising a lap belt or pelvic strap (30), a rigid recliner rail (10) over the spinal column, and two individually tightenable shoulder straps (23, 24), each of which extends from a lower portion (12) of then recliner rail (10), forms a shoulder strap, and is guided backwards via guides (18, 19) on a top portion (14) of the recliner rail (10), where the two shoulder straps (23, 24) intersect in a central point of intersection (29) and then run contralaterally towards the front, intersect in lateral points of intersection (27, 28) and can finally be tightly attached to the lap belt (30).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a back orthosis which treats or straightens a curved spine or treats and corrects postural errors especially in the upper back region by repositioning the shoulders. The present invention provides a new reclining orthosis with special guide straps that functions very effectively and is easy to apply and adjust. Background technique [0002] Reclining orthoses, also known as straight up orthoses, basically consist of a rigid splint element ("recliner") extending along the spine, which is pressed against the spine by body straps and bandages that surround the patient under tension, to provide support in this position. Known reclining orthoses enclose the shoulder area with two shoulder straps and pull the shoulders back when worn. Through the interaction of the shoulder straps, recliner and body wrap around the body, the patient's spine is mechanically stabilized, especially the shoulder region and the upper thoracic re...
