D'autres procédés de fabrication sont connus des documents
L'ensemble de ces procédés permet de fabriquer des sièges adaptés, soit en prenant des mesures directement sur l'utilisateur par le professionnel de santé qui transmettra ces informations au fabricant qui fabriquera le siège, avec l'inconvénient de mesures imparfaitement adaptées à chaque utilisateur, soit en utilisant un système de cales accrochés par des velcros, recouvertes d'une housse, avec le risque de décrocher ces cales lors par exemple d'un lavage et d'utiliser de nouvelles cales pour chaque utilisateur.All of these processes make it possible to manufacture suitable seats, either by taking measurements directly on the user by the healthcare professional who will transmit this information to the manufacturer who will manufacture the seat, with the inconvenience of measurements imperfectly adapted to each user. , or by using a system of wedges attached by Velcro, covered with a cover, with the risk of unhooking these wedges during washing, for example, and using new wedges for each user.
La présente invention, telle que définie dans la revendication 1, a donc pour objet un procédé de réalisation d'une assise sur mesure grâce à un dispositif de positionnement orthopédique qui puisse être positionné facilement et qui propose un siège unique pour chaque utilisateur.The present invention, as defined in claim 1, therefore relates to a method for producing a made-to-measure seat using an orthopedic positioning device which can be positioned easily and which offers a single seat for each user.
A cet effet, l'invention prévoit différentes cales, notamment cales pelviennes, cales d'abduction et cales d'adduction, empilables, positionnées sur des emplacements prédéfinis sur une assise ou embase, l'ensemble étant positionné sur un plateau de fixation réglable d'avant en arrière, caractérisé par le fait que ces éléments empilables favorisent une bonne stabilité et permettent une meilleure distribution des pressions à l'interface séant-siège. Ces éléments sont utilisés par le professionnel de la santé, notamment un ergothérapeute et un kinésithérapeute, pour prendre des mesures qui sont transmises au fabricant qui fraisera l'assise finale dans un bloc de mousse réticulée à cellules fermées faite de polyéthylène ou toutes autres sortes de mousses. Ce bloc sera ensuite recouvert d'une housse favorisant une meilleure hygiène à l'utilisateur. L'utilisateur obtiendra donc son assise unique. Les cales pourront être utilisées pour d'autres utilisateurs par le professionnel de santé.To this end, the invention provides various wedges, in particular pelvic wedges, abduction wedges and adduction wedges, stackable, positioned on predefined locations on a seat or base, the assembly being positioned on an adjustable fixing plate of front to back, characterized by the fact that these stackable elements promote good stability and allow better distribution of pressures at the seat-back interface. These elements are used by the health professional, in particular an occupational therapist and a physiotherapist, to take measurements which are transmitted to the manufacturer who will mill the final seat in a block of reticulated foam with closed cells made of polyethylene or any other kind of foams. This block will then be covered with a cover promoting better hygiene for the user. The user will therefore obtain his unique seat. The wedges may be used for other users by the healthcare professional.
Dans ce qui suit, l'invention est expliquée plus en détail à l'aide d'un exemple d'exécution du siège illustré par le dessin dans lequel :

A cela se rajoutent des cales d'inclinaison, venant se mettre sous l'assise, sous un des quatre côtés du carré. Ces cales ont différentes épaisseurs. Elles permettent l'inclinaison, soit vers la gauche, vers la droite, en avant ou en arrière de l'ensemble de l'assise. Ces cales sont positionnés de telle sorte qu'elles occupent la moitié du carré de base 400 mm par 400 mm ou 500 mm par 500 mm, soit 200 mm ou 250 mm.To this are added tilt wedges, which are placed under the seat, under one of the four sides of the saloon. These wedges have different thicknesses. They allow tilting, either to the left, to the right, forwards or backwards of the entire seat. These wedges are positioned so that they occupy half of the base square 400 mm by 400 mm or 500 mm by 500 mm, i.e. 200 mm or 250 mm.
A cela se rajoutent des cales d'obliquité, venant se mettre sous l'assise, sous un angle du carré. Ces cales ont différentes épaisseurs, par exemple 20 mm, 40 mm ou 60 mm. Elles permettent l'inclinaison oblique de l'ensemble de l'assise.To this are added wedges of obliqueness, coming to be put under the seat, under an angle of the square. These wedges have different thicknesses, for example 20 mm, 40 mm or 60 mm. They allow the oblique inclination of the entire seat.
A cela se rajoutent différents inserts pour ischions positionnés entre les cales pelviennes, d'adduction et d'abduction. Ces inserts pourront être en mousse, en gel viscoélastique de polyuréthane, à cellules pneumatiques avec au moins une zone de gonflage, ou plusieurs zones de gonflage ou avec tous types de matières ou avec tous types d'inserts permettant de soutenir les ischions.Added to this are various seat bone inserts positioned between the pelvic, adduction and abduction wedges. These inserts may be made of foam, of viscoelastic polyurethane gel, of pneumatic cells with at least one inflation zone, or several inflation zones or with all types of materials or with all types of inserts making it possible to support the seat bones.
Ces inserts couvrent la surface du séant, et reviennent légèrement sous les cuisses de 33 % de la distance restante entre les ischions et le bord du coussin.These inserts cover the surface of the buttocks, and return slightly under the thighs by 33% of the remaining distance between the seat bones and the edge of the cushion.
Tous les éléments décrits s'imbriquent et sont recouverts d'un tissu agrippant, permettant la solidarisation par velcro. Des repères sont visibles sur l'assise carrée, et seront reportés dans la fiche de mesure ainsi que les cales choisies, pour connaître l'emplacement souhaité.All the elements described fit together and are covered with a gripping fabric, allowing velcro fastening. Marks are visible on the square seat, and will be reported in the measurement sheet as well as the chosen wedges, to know the desired location.
Une fois les éléments imbriqués en fonction de la morphologie de l'utilisateur avec le concours de l'ergothérapeute et du kinésithérapeute, les mesures correspondant à l'emplacement de chacun des éléments seront envoyées au fabricant pour fraiser un bloc de mousse réticulée à cellules fermées faite de polyéthylène correspondant à l'utilisateur. Ce bloc de mousse sera ensuite recouvert par une housse dont la partie en contact avec l'utilisateur sera en fibre d'élasthanne imperméabilisée extensible en longueur et en largeur pour assurer une meilleure hygiène et la partie en contact avec le dispositif sera en mousse souple type polyether, mousse polyuréthanne haute résilience ou mousse viscoélastique de 5 mm d'épaisseur.Once the elements are nested according to the morphology of the user with the assistance of the occupational therapist and the physiotherapist, the measurements corresponding to the location of each of the elements will be sent to the manufacturer to mill a block of reticulated foam with closed cells made of polyethylene corresponding to the user. This block of foam will then be covered by a cover whose part in contact with the user will be made of waterproof elastane fiber stretchable in length and width to ensure better hygiene and the part in contact with the device will be made of soft foam type polyether, high resilience polyurethane foam or 5 mm thick viscoelastic foam.
L'invention sera ensuite avantageusement complétée par un dossier galbant, creusé au niveau de la colonne vertébrale pour éviter les points d'appuis et équipé de cales tronc réglables en largeur.The invention will then be advantageously supplemented by a contouring backrest, hollowed out at the level of the spine to avoid the points of support and equipped with width-adjustable trunk wedges.
On pourra également installer des capteurs de pression sur l'assise, ou sur chacune des cales de l'assise, ou sur le dossier lors de la prise de mesures afin d'affiner le réglage des éléments.It is also possible to install pressure sensors on the seat, or on each of the wedges of the seat, or on the backrest when taking measurements in order to refine the adjustment of the elements.
