Abstract

The roller incorporates two spiked elastomer rings (1) which each are mounted in a grooves in spherical rollers. The spikes (5) on the rings are of conical-shape with rounded tips. Each ring has several rows of spikes which are offset from one another. The spherical rollers are mounted on a shaft, which in turn is mounted on a crosspiece, at the end of the handle which can pivot about a pin (6) in the handle so that both rollers are always in contact with the back of the person being massaged.

Description

Einleitungintroduction

Die therapeutische Massage der paravertebralen Muskelstränge, so beispielsweise der Fascie-Lumbodorsalis erfordert Sorgfalt und bedeutet für die Fingergelenke des Massierenden eine hohe Belastung.The therapeutic massage of the paravertebral muscle strands, such as the Fascie-Lumbodorsalis requires care and means for the finger joints of the Massaging a high load.

Die intensive, punktuelle Massage der genannten Rückenmuskeln dient nicht nur der Lockerung derselben, sie soll auch eine Reanimation der Dermatome - eine Reizung der Nervenbahnen über die Kernmuskeln zum Rückenmark - zum Beispiel nach längerer Immobilisation, bei Spannungsbeschwerden, oder in der postoperativen Anwendung bewirken.The intensive, selective massage of the above-mentioned back muscles is not only used for Relaxation of the same, it is also said to resuscitate the dermatome - an irritation of the Nerve tracts over the core muscles to the spinal cord - for example after a longer one Immobilization, for tension complaints, or in post-operative use effect.

Mit den üblichen, manuellen Massagetechniken kann die vorangestellt beschriebene Wirkung nur ungenügend erreicht werden. Dies ist sofort ersichtlich, wen man bedenkt, daß der massierende Finger mit mehr als 1 cm² Fläche auf der Rückenhaut des Patienten aufliegt, zum Reizen der Dermatome jedoch weniger als 1 mm² große Fläche ausreichen würde. Dieser Vergleich verdeutlicht, daß der Massagefinger mehr als das Hundertfache des optimalen Druckes leisten muß, um die angestrebte Reizung zu erzielen.With the usual, manual massage techniques, the effect described above can can only be achieved insufficiently. This is immediately apparent, if you consider that the massaging fingers with more than 1 cm² surface on the patient's back skin, however, an area of less than 1 mm² would be sufficient to irritate the dermatomes. This comparison shows that the massage finger more than a hundred times the optimal pressure to achieve the desired irritation.

Die allgemeine technische Entwicklung hat sich dieses Feldes noch nicht angenommen. Es werden keine geeigneten Hilfsmittel angeboten, um die Arbeit des Masseurs bei der Massage der paravertebralen Muskeln zu erleichtern und eine gezielte, punktuelle Reizung der Dermatome zu gewährleisten.The general technical development has not yet taken on this field. It no suitable aids are offered to support the massage therapist's work of the paravertebral muscles and a targeted, selective irritation of the To ensure dermatomes.

Die vorliegende erfinderische Neuerung soll hier Abhilfe schaffen. The present inventive innovation is intended to remedy this.  

Beschreibungdescription

Die Erfindung beinhaltet eine neuartige Noppenwalze oder Noppenrolle und auch deren anwendungsorientierte, zweckmäßig gestaltete Anordnung in einem ebenfalls neuartigen Werkzeug.The invention includes a novel pimpled roller or pimpled roll and also their Application-oriented, appropriately designed arrangement in a likewise new type Tool.

Ein wesentliches Merkmal der Noppenwalze ist die Form der Noppen, ein Kegel mit abgerundeter Spitze.An essential feature of the pimpled roller is the shape of the pimples, with a cone rounded tip.

Ein weiteres Merkmal ist die geometrische Anordnung der Noppen auf der Mantelfläche der Noppenrolle: sie weist eine sogenannte Schachbrettverteilung aus.Another feature is the geometrical arrangement of the knobs on the lateral surface of the Knob roll: it shows a so-called checkerboard distribution.

Ein weiteres Merkmal der Noppenrolle sind die vorgeschlagenen Materialien: elastische Stoffe wie Gummi, Silicon, Elastomere oder ein Gemisch dieser Stoffe. Die Härten von 35 bis 70 nach Shore, werden aus physiologischen Gründen bevorzugt.Another feature of the knobbed roll are the proposed materials: elastic Substances such as rubber, silicone, elastomers or a mixture of these substances. The hardships of 35 to 70 according to Shore, are preferred for physiological reasons.

Die Funktion und eine vorteilhafte Ausführungsform wird mit Hilfe der Zeichnungen erklärt.The function and an advantageous embodiment is explained with the aid of the drawings.

Fig. 1 zeigt einen Noppenring aus elastischem Material. Es bedeuten: 1 Noppenring, der auch als Walze oder Kugel ausgestaltet sein kann, mit Noppen 5. Fig. 1 shows a knob ring made of elastic material. This means: 1 knob ring, which can also be designed as a roller or ball, with knobs 5 .

Fig. 2 zeigt eine mögliche, geometrische Anordnung der Noppen 5, in gestreckter Darstellung Fig. 2 shows a possible, geometric arrangement of the knobs 5 , in a stretched representation

Fig. 3 zeigt eine mögliche Werkzeugkonstruktion, die die Arbeit des Masseurs und die erforderliche Wirkung der Behandlung erst überhaupt ermöglicht. Fig. 3 shows a possible tool design that enables the work of the masseur and the required effect of the treatment in the first place.

Es bedeuten: 1 Noppenring, 2 Gehäuse, 3 Querachse, 4 Anschlag, 5 Noppen, 6 Längsachse, 7 Griffel.It means: 1 knob ring, 2 housing, 3 transverse axis, 4 stop, 5 knobs, 6 longitudinal axis, 7 stylus.

Funktion: zwei Noppenringe 1 sind auf Querachse 3 drehend gelagert. Im Gehäuse 2 ist die Querachse 3 fest installiert. Gehäuse 2 und Längsachse 6 sind miteinander kraftschlüssig verbunden. Längsachse 6 ist im Griffel 7 drehend gelagert, wodurch sich diese in der Anwendung der anatomischen, individuellen Form der Rückenmuskulatur unbegrenzt anpassen kann.Function: two knob rings 1 are rotatably mounted on the transverse axis 3 . The transverse axis 3 is permanently installed in the housing 2 . Housing 2 and longitudinal axis 6 are non-positively connected to each other. Longitudinal axis 6 is rotatably mounted in the stylus 7 , which means that it can adapt indefinitely when using the anatomical, individual shape of the back muscles.

Die Proportionen der Durchmesser von Noppenring 1 und Gehäuse 2 sind ausreichend, um eine Berührung zwischen Gehäuse 2 und Bandscheibe, die auf der Zeichnung nicht dargestellt ist, auch im Falle von Bandscheibenvorfall zu vermeiden.The proportions of the diameter of the knob ring 1 and the housing 2 are sufficient to avoid contact between the housing 2 and the intervertebral disc, which is not shown in the drawing, even in the event of a herniated disc.

Fig. 4 zeigt in schematischer Darstellung den erfindungsgemäß gestalteten Massageroller beim therapeutischen Massieren der paravertebralen Muskel 9. Fig. 4 shows in a schematic representation according to the invention designed massage roller from therapeutic massaging the paravertebral muscle. 9

Es bedeuten: 1 Noppenring, 8 Wirbelsäule, 9 Paravertebrale-Muskel.It means: 1 knob ring, 8 spine, 9 paravertebral muscle.
