Abstract

Medicine. Pneumatic element for making seats for the sick characterised in that it consists of a hollow leaktight tube made of a flexible and elastic material 1, comprising constrictions 4 at given intervals and provided with an inflation valve 2.

Description

La présente invention vise, plus particulièrement un élément pneumatique destiné à la réalisation d'un coussin, tel qu'un coussin d'assise ou de dossier, un matelas ou autre, plus particulièrement pour tétraplégiques qui ne peuvent se soulever à des intervalles de temps réguliers. The present invention relates more particularly to a pneumatic element intended for the production of a cushion, such as a seat or back cushion, a mattress or the like, more particularly for quadriplegics who cannot be lifted at time intervals. regular.

On connaît de nombreuses réalisations de coussins pneumatiques mais ceux-ci présentent l'inconvénient d'engendrer des effets de frictions et de cisaillements qui sont négatif s au niveau cutané. Numerous embodiments of pneumatic cushions are known, but these have the drawback of generating friction and shearing effects which are negative on the skin.

L'un des buts de la présente invention est de réaliser un élément pneumatique remédiant à ces inconvénients. One of the aims of the present invention is to produce a pneumatic element which overcomes these drawbacks.

I,'élément, selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce qu'il est constitué d'un boudin creux étanche en une matière souple et élastique, comportant à des intervalles déterminés des étranglements et pourvu d'une valve de gonflage. I, 'element, according to the invention is characterized in that it consists of a sealed hollow tube in a flexible and elastic material, comprising at specified intervals throttles and provided with an inflation valve.

L'invention vise également une assise réalisée à partir d'une série d'éléments tels que ci-dessus définis, caractérisée en ce qu'elle comporte une série d'éléments disposés côte à côte et dont deux au moins sont reliés par un conduit.  The invention also relates to a seat made from a series of elements as defined above, characterized in that it comprises a series of elements arranged side by side and of which at least two are connected by a conduit. .

L'invention va maintenant être décrite avec plus de détails en se référant à un mode de réalisation particulier donné à titre d'exemple seulement et représenté aux dessins annexés, dans lesquels
La figure 3 montre en élévation un élément, selon l'invention.
The invention will now be described in more detail with reference to a particular embodiment given by way of example only and shown in the accompanying drawings, in which
Figure 3 shows in elevation an element according to the invention.

La figure 2 montre en plan un coussinanti-escarres réalisé à partir d'un élément, selon l'invention. FIG. 2 shows in plan a cushioning-bedsore produced from an element, according to the invention.

Le coussin, selon l'invention est constitué d'un boudin creux étanche et gonflable 1 comportant une valve de gonflage 2, ledit boudin étant séparé en tronçons 3 par des étranglements 4. The cushion according to the invention consists of a sealed and inflatable hollow tube 1 comprising an inflation valve 2, said tube being separated into sections 3 by throttles 4.

De préférence le boudin est réalisé en une matière souple et élastique, de préférence en néoprène ayant une épaisseur de 15/10 suivant la technique dite "au trempé". Preferably the flange is made of a flexible and elastic material, preferably of neoprene having a thickness of 15/10 according to the so-called "dip" technique.

Le néoprène offre l'avantage d'avoir un veillissement très lent, de garder son élasticité et de parfaitement résister à des agents tels que la sueur, ou à l'urine chez des sujets incontinants.Neoprene offers the advantage of having a very slow aging, of keeping its elasticity and of perfectly resisting agents such as sweat, or urine in incontinent subjects.

Grâce a' la structure de l'élément, selon l'invention on réalise une bonne répartition des pressions. Thanks to the structure of the element, according to the invention, good pressure distribution is achieved.

A la figure 2, on a représenté un coussin antiescarres réalisé à partir d'un élément, selon l'invention. In Figure 2, there is shown an anti-squares cushion made from an element, according to the invention.

Ce coussin comprend deux premiers éléments 6 et 7 reliés entre eux par un conduit 8, l'élément 7 étant pourvu d'une valve 9. Les deux éléments 6 et 7 comportent six tronçons 3. Le coussin est complété par une première série de trois éléments 10, 11 et 12 pourvus chacun de trois tronçons 3 et reliés entre eux par des conduits 14, l'élément 11 étant pourvu d'une valve 15. Enfin, il est prévu une seconde série de trois éléments 16, 17 et 18 comportant chacun trois tronçons 3 et reliés entre eux par des conduits 19, l'élément 18 étant pourvu-d'une valve 20.This cushion comprises two first elements 6 and 7 connected together by a conduit 8, the element 7 being provided with a valve 9. The two elements 6 and 7 have six sections 3. The cushion is completed by a first series of three elements 10, 11 and 12 each provided with three sections 3 and connected together by conduits 14, element 11 being provided with a valve 15. Finally, a second series of three elements 16, 17 and 18 is provided, comprising each three sections 3 and connected together by conduits 19, the element 18 being provided with a valve 20.

Pour faciliter le gonflage, les valves 9, 15 et 20 sont toutes situées d'un même côté.  To facilitate inflation, the valves 9, 15 and 20 are all located on the same side.

On peut régler la pression d'air grâce aux valves de façon à obtenir des pressions très faibles sous l'assise, dans les régions à hauts risques (ischions, trochanters, coccyxj. The air pressure can be adjusted using the valves so as to obtain very low pressures under the seat, in high-risk regions (ischia, trochanters, coccyxj.

Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée au mode de réalisation qui vient d'être décrit et représenté. On pourra y apporter de nombreuses modifications de détail sans sortir pour cela du cadre de l'invention.  Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiment which has just been described and shown. Many modifications of detail can be made without departing from the scope of the invention.
