Description
Sistema de personalización de soportes corporales.Media Customization System bodily
La presente invención se refiere a un nuevo sistema para la personalización de soportes corporales, como por ejemplo, soportes corporales asientos y similares.The present invention relates to a new system for personalization of body supports, as per example, body supports seats and the like.
El objeto de la invención es dotar a un soporte corporal, como por ejemplo el citado soporte corporal, de una dureza en cada parte del mismo adecuada a las características corporales de la persona a la que está específicamente destinado, en función de los datos antropométricos básicos del mismo, tales como peso, estatura, altura de hombros, altura del trocánter, altura del hueco poplíteo, etc., así como también en función de diferentes enfermedades o patologías que puedan afectar a dicho usuario.The object of the invention is to provide a support body, such as the aforementioned body support, of a hardness in each part thereof appropriate to the bodily characteristics of the person to whom it is specifically intended, depending on the basic anthropometric data thereof, such as weight, height, shoulder height, trochanter height, hole height popliteal, etc., as well as depending on different diseases or pathologies that may affect said user.
Convencionalmente los colchones y otros soportes corporales presentan una estructura mono-cuerpo, estando fabricados con diferentes materias primas, tales como espuma de poliuretano, látex, materiales viscoelásticos, etc., existiendo igualmente soportes corporales de muelles que combinan estos elementos elásticos con algunos de los materiales citados u otros.Conventionally mattresses and other supports bodily have a mono-body structure, being manufactured with different raw materials, such as foam of polyurethane, latex, viscoelastic materials, etc., existing also body supports of springs that combine these elastic elements with some of the materials cited or others.
El denominador común a todos ellos es que están provistos de una estructura homogénea, que no es posible variar.The common denominator to all of them is that they are provided with a homogeneous structure, which is not possible to vary.
Estos soportes corporales pueden resultar "duros" o "blandos", pero lo son en toda su extensión, lo que no resulta ni mucho menos idóneo para un buen descanso corporal, y menos aún para el descanso corporal de una persona en concreto.These body supports can result "hard" or "soft", but they are in full extent, what which is not much less suitable for a good body rest, and even less for a person's body rest in concrete.
Mas recientemente se conoce, a través del Modelo de Utilidad con número de publicación ES 1079359 U, un soporte corporal que comprende un cuerpo principal en el que en al menos una de sus caras mayores incorpora también al menos una cavidad que es capaz de recibir a un segundo cuerpo de distinta naturaleza, es decir obtenido con diferentes materiales, de manera que el soporte corporal en su conjunto resulte mas "blando", es decir se hunda mas, en aquellas zonas prominentes del cuerpo humano en situación de tumbado, como por ejemplo a nivel de las caderas y de los hombros.More recently it is known, through the Model of Utility with publication number ES 1079359 U, a support body that comprises a main body in which at least one of its major faces also incorporates at least one cavity that is able to receive a second body of different nature, is say obtained with different materials, so that the support body as a whole is more "soft", that is to say it sinks more, in those prominent areas of the human body in a situation of lying down, such as at the level of the hips and shoulders.
Los soportes corporales de este tipo, si bien pueden resultar mas confortables que los soportes corporales clásicos, presentan serias dificultades si se pretende conseguir una personalización de los mismos, sin el empleo de un sistema como el preconizado por la presente invención.Body supports of this type, although they can be more comfortable than body supports classics, present serious difficulties if you want to get a personalization of them, without the use of a system such as recommended by the present invention.
El sistema que la invención propone, resuelve de forma plenamente satisfactoria la problemática anteriormente expuesta, permitiendo de una forma rápida, sencilla y eficaz adecuar el grado de dureza del mismo, en cada punto de su superficie, a las exigencias del comprador del soporte corporal, pudiendo además llevar a cabo la correspondiente toma de datos del usuario, por parte del vendedor y prescriptores médicos, sin necesidad de que éste posea unos conocimientos especiales.The system proposed by the invention resolves the problem was fully satisfactory before exposed, allowing a quick, simple and effective way to adapt the degree of hardness thereof, at each point of its surface, at requirements of the buyer of body support, and can also carry out the corresponding user data collection, by part of the seller and medical prescribers, without the need for He has special knowledge.
Para ello el sistema consiste en una primera fase de toma de datos, una segunda fase de análisis de los datos obtenidos y una tercera fase de fabricación del soporte corporal.For this the system consists of a first data collection phase, a second phase of data analysis obtained and a third phase of manufacturing the support bodily.
Tal como acaba de decirse, la toma de datos puede ser llevada a cabo por el propio vendedor en el punto de venta del soporte corporal, y dicha toma de datos se materializa en una obtención de datos de presiones mediante un sistema de sensores adecuadamente distribuidos de tal forma que abarquen toda la presión ejercida por el cuerpo sobre el soporte corporal, una toma de datos antropométricos básicos, tales como los citados peso, estatura, etc., datos relativos a enfermedades o patologías del usuario al que va destinado el soporte corporal, datos subjetivos de confort mediante una prueba empírica y datos de confort térmico del usuario, obviamente subjetivos.As just said, data collection It can be carried out by the seller himself at the point of sale of body support, and this data collection is materialized in a obtaining pressure data using a sensor system properly distributed so that they cover all the pressure exerted by the body on body support, a data collection basic anthropometric, such as the mentioned weight, height, etc., data related to diseases or pathologies of the user to whom body support is intended, subjective comfort data by means of an empirical test and thermal comfort data of the user, obviously subjective.
Tras la toma de los datos anteriormente citados se procede al diseño del núcleo del soporte corporal mediante la aplicación de una fórmula analítica compleja o un sistema experto de tipo inductivo (red neuronal) a los datos del mapa de presiones del sujeto, lo que permite tomar decisiones respecto al grosor y reparto de los puntos principales del diseño interior del conjunto formado por la capa viscoelástica y las capas soporte. Esto depende del valor de dureza objetiva y otras variables mecánicas de los materiales a utilizar.After taking the aforementioned data we proceed to the design of the core of the body support through the application of a complex analytical formula or an expert system of inductive type (neural network) to the pressure map data of the subject, allowing decisions regarding thickness and distribution of the main points of the interior design of the set formed by the viscoelastic layer and the support layers. This depends on the value of objective hardness and other mechanical variables of the the materials to use.
Paralelamente se aplica una formula analítica sencilla a los datos antropométricos de peso y altura, para personalizar los puntos de presión y el grosor relativo de cada una de las capas.In parallel, an analytical formula is applied simple to anthropometric weight and height data, for customize the pressure points and the relative thickness of each of the layers.
Un sistema experto de tipo inductivo simple (árbol de decisión) o complejo (red neuronal) permite tomar en consideración las patologías para el diseño, obteniendo valores para variables del diseño dependiendo de que se padezca un tipo u otro de patología.An expert system of simple inductive type (decision tree) or complex (neural network) allows to take in I consider the pathologies for the design, obtaining values for design variables depending on whether one type or another of pathology.
Finalmente se selecciona el recubrimiento exterior, es decir la funda y acabado del soporte corporal, para lo que un sistema experto de tipo inductivo simple analiza los datos subjetivos básicos para la elección del recubrimiento exterior del núcleo tales como sensación de confort y sensación térmica, utilizando distintos grosores de fibras para sensaciones de confort mas suaves o mas firmes, y rellenos de algodón o de fibra para obtener sensación térmica de calor o frío.Finally the coating is selected exterior, that is, the cover and finish of the body support, for that a simple inductive expert system analyzes the data basic subjective for the choice of the outer covering of the core such as comfort feeling and thermal sensation, using different fiber thicknesses for comfort sensations softer or firmer, and filled with cotton or fiber to Get thermal sensation of heat or cold.
Finalmente y en función de los datos obtenidos y analizados, se cortan mediante sistemas de corte por control numérico los bloques de espuma u otro material a utilizar, previamente cuadrados, que constituyen la base o núcleo del soporte corporal, y con el mismo procedimiento se cortan los materiales constitutivos de la capa superior de material viscoelástico, de manera que formen el soporte corporal perfectamente recto, variando su dureza en cada punto según los requerimientos calculados, dirigidos a reducir la presión y mantener una perfecta higiene postural. Finalmente se recubre con la capa de acabado exterior textil, es decir con la correspondiente funda, elegida o recomendada para cada usuario.Finally and based on the data obtained and analyzed, cut by control cutting systems numerical foam blocks or other material to use, previously square, which constitute the base or core of the support body, and with the same procedure the materials are cut constituting the top layer of viscoelastic material, of so that they form the perfectly straight body support, varying its hardness at each point according to the calculated requirements, aimed at reducing pressure and maintaining perfect hygiene postural Finally it is coated with the outer finish layer textile, that is to say with the corresponding cover, chosen or recommended For each user.
Se obtiene de esta manera un colchón o soporte corporal como el que muestra el Modelo de Utilidad U 200800769, del que es titular la propia entidad solicitante.In this way a mattress or support is obtained body as shown in Utility Model U 200800769, of which is the owner of the requesting entity itself.
