これによ つて可動枠部 2 0 0 は枢着軸 2 3 0 を支点と して矢印 (ィ ) 方 向に起立される ので、 使用者 Pの好ま しい傾斜状態において操作ボタ ン 5 As a result, the movable frame portion 200 is erected in the direction of the arrow (a) with the pivot axis 230 as a fulcrum, so that the operation button 5 can be operated in the preferred inclination state of the user P.
1 0 A、 5 1 0 Bを停止 S と して左右のコ ンプレ ッ サ 4 1 O A、 4 1 0 B を停止させる (第 6 図(2) ) 。 Stop the left and right compressors 41OA and 410B as 10A and 510B as stop S (Fig. 6 (2)).
こ の状態では、 上方から見れば使用者 P の上半身は使用者 P の好みの傾 斜角 ( α ) の リ ク ラ イ ニ ング位置で可動枠部 2 0 0 が停止されたこ と とな る (第 6 図(3) ) 。 In this state, when viewed from above, the upper body of the user P has the movable frame 200 stopped at the reclining position at the user's preferred inclination angle ( α ). (Fig. 6 (3)).
② 捻り操作 ② Twisting operation
次いで、 使用者 Ρ の上半身を使用者 Ρの個有の身体軸のズ レに適合する よ う に可動枠部 2 0 0 をその巾方向に所望の捻り角度 ( ) に傾斜させる が、 その手順は以下の如く である。 Next, the movable frame portion 200 is inclined at a desired twist angle () in the width direction so that the upper body of the user Ρ conforms to the deviation of the user's own body axis. Is as follows.
使用者 Ρは、 一方の左 (又は右) の操作ボタ ン 5 1 O A ( B ) の一方の みを始動 Mに操作する と、 左 (又は右) のコ ンプレ ッサ 4 1 O A ( B ) の みが始動して、 左 (又は右) のエア ク ッ シ ョ ン部 3 0 0 A ( B ) のみが更 に膨張されて可動枠部 2 0 0 は、 左 (右) に偏奇するよ う に装置 1 0 0 0 の巾方向に好みの捻り角度 (;3 ) だけ傾斜される (第 6 図矢印 (ハ) 、 (二) 参照) 。 When the user 操作 operates only one of the left (or right) operation buttons 51 OA (B) to start M, the left (or right) compressor 41 OA (B) Only the start starts, and only the left (or right) air cushion section 300A (B) is further expanded, and the movable frame section 200 is biased to the left (right). Thus, it is tilted by the desired twist angle (; 3) in the width direction of the apparatus 100 (see arrows (c) and (2) in FIG. 6).
即ち、 第 6 図(4) に示すよ うに、 使用者?の左肩が捻り角度 (;8 , ) だ け前傾した状態も し く は第 6 図(5) に示すよ う に、 右肩が捻り角度 ( 2 ) だけ前傾した状態である。 That is, as shown in Fig. 6 (4), the user? The left shoulder is tilted forward only by the twist angle (; 8,), or the right shoulder is tilted forward by the twist angle ( 2 ), as shown in Fig. 6 (5).
これによ つて使用者 Pの上半身は、 腰部を支点と して左 (右) 方向に背 骨が捻られた状態で上半身が支持される こ と となる。 As a result, the upper body of user P moves left (right) around the waist as a fulcrum. The upper body is supported with the bones twisted.
と ころで、 使用者 P は前記のよ う に個有の身体軸のズレがある こ とが検 証されており、 前記のよ う な可動枠部 2 0 0 の捻り状態が使用者 Pの身体 軸の捻れに適合すれば、 使用者 P は安楽感を持って疲れや窮屈感を感ずる こ とな く 長時間にわたって上半身を可動枠部 2 0 0 に凭れさせた同じ姿勢 で過ごすこ とが出来る ものであって、 健常者や介護の必要な人や病人も し く はハ ンディ キ ャ ッ プを持つ人達のみならず、 格別に支障のない人たちに と つて も快適なものが得られる ものである。 At this point, it has been verified that the user P has a unique displacement of the body axis as described above, and the twisted state of the movable frame portion 200 as described above indicates that the user P has twisted. If adapted to the torsion of the body axis, the user P can spend a long time in the same posture leaning the upper body against the movable frame section 200 without feeling tired or cramped. It can be done and is comfortable not only for healthy people, people in need of nursing care, sick people or people with handicap, but also those who are not particularly troubled. Things.
と こ ろで、 通常使用者 P は自身の身体軸のズレが左又は右方向へどの位 の角度であるかを知ってはいない。 By the way, the user P usually does not know how much the deviation of his body axis is left or right.
し力 しながら、 この可動枠部 2 0 0 の捻り角度 ( /3 ) については、 予め 使用者 P の身体軸の捻れについて計測する必要はな く、 例えば上半身を捻 つた状態で可動枠部 2 0 0 に支持させて、 約 3 0秒程度経過させるだけで 、 例えば違和感や窮屈感、 更には痛みなどを感ずる場合には、 その要因は 可動枠部 2 0 0 の捻り角度 ( /3 ) が上半身の身体軸のズレ と一致していな いが故であつて、 更に左右の操作ボタ ン 5 1 O A又は 5 1 0 Bを操作して 始動 M も し く は開放 K とする こ とによ って可動枠部 2 0 0 の捻り角度 ( /3 ) を変更調節 し、 更に約 3 0秒程度、 同じ姿勢を維持する手順を繰り返す う ちに使用者 P に適合する可動枠部 2 0 0 の捻り角度 ( yS ) が確保される ものである。 With regard to the twist angle (/ 3) of the movable frame 200, it is not necessary to measure in advance the twist of the body axis of the user P. For example, the movable frame 2 is twisted with the upper body twisted. If you feel uncomfortable, cramped, or even painful, for example, only by allowing about 30 seconds while supporting it at 0, the cause is the torsion angle (/ 3) of the movable frame section 200. Because it does not correspond to the displacement of the body axis of the upper body, it is necessary to further operate the left and right operation buttons 51 OA or 5110 B to set the starting M or the opening K. Change the torsional angle (/ 3) of the movable frame part 200 and repeat the procedure of maintaining the same posture for about 30 seconds, and then the movable frame part 200 that fits the user P. The torsion angle (yS) is ensured.
この結果、 使用者 P は自身の身体軸のズレに適台した状態に可動枠部 2 0 0 を変位させて長時間にわたって継続して安楽にこの身体支持装置を利 用し う る ものである。 As a result, the user P displaces the movable frame portion 200 in a state suitable for the deviation of his / her body axis and continuously uses the body support device comfortably for a long time. .
この場合の可動枠部 2 0 0 の各部分の相対的な作動状態について詳細に みれば次の如く である。 The relative operation state of each part of the movable frame portion 200 in this case is as follows in detail.
即ち、 可動枠部 2 0 0 は、 左右の枢着軸 2 3 0 を支点と して矢印 (ハ) 又は (二) 方向に捻られる こ と となるため、 第 1 と第 2 のョ一イ ン グフ レ ーム 2 0 1 と 2 0 2 と の横杆部 2 0 1 A、 2 0 2 A は、 第 1 のャ ト イ パイ プ 2 0 3 内において、 その軸線方向沿いに互いに対向方向に相対的に僅か に旋回される と共に、 間隔 ( X ) が変更され、 その縦杆部 2 0 1 B と 2 0 2 B とは第 2、 第 3 のャ ト イノ、 'ィ プ 2 0 4、 2 0 5 内において第 3 と第 4 の ョ 一 イ ン グフ レーム 2 0 6、 2 0 7 の上方部 2 0 6 A、 2 0 7 A と も、 その軸線方向沿いに互いに対向方向に相対的に僅かに旋回される と共に、 少な く と も一方の間隔 ( Y ) が変更される こ とによ って、 各第 1 〜第 4 の ョー ィ ン グフ レーム 2 0 1 〜 2 0 4 の間にス ト レ スが発生しないよ う に し て可動枠部 2 0 0 が枢着軸 2 3 0位置から遠ざかる方向 (高さ方向) に遠 く なる程、 よ り大きい傾斜角度 ( /3 ) で捻り変形される ものであ り、 この 際に連結帯 2 2 0 について も、 背部ス テ一 2 2 1、 2 2 2 の相対的な捻れ を背部ゴム体 2 2 3 と左右のゴム環 2 2 4、 2 2 5 によ っ て吸収する こ と となるから、 可動枠部 2 0 0 はその対向線方向 (ホ) 、 (へ) を中心と し て無理な く捻られた形態に偏位し う る ものである (第 6 図(4) 、 (5) ) 。 ③ 横臥操作 In other words, the movable frame portion 200 has the left and right pivots 230 as a fulcrum and an arrow (c). Or, the horizontal rod portions 201A and 202A of the first and second operating frames 201 and 202 are to be twisted in the (2) direction. In the first articulated pipe 203, it is turned slightly along its axial direction in the direction opposite to each other, and the distance (X) is changed. And 202B are above the third and fourth joint frames 206,207 in the second, third artinos, types 204,205. Both parts 206A and 207A are slightly swiveled along their axial direction in opposite directions, and at least one of the distances (Y) is changed. Therefore, the movable frame portion 200 is pivotally connected to the pivot shaft 230 so that no stress is generated between the first to fourth jumping frames 201 to 204. Direction away from position (height direction) As the distance increases, the torsion is deformed at a larger inclination angle (/ 3). At this time, the connecting band 220 also has a relative position between the back stays 221, 222. Since the torsion is absorbed by the back rubber member 222 and the left and right rubber rings 222, 225, the movable frame portion 200 is positioned in the opposite line direction (e), (f). It shifts to a forcibly twisted form around (Fig. 6 (4), (5)). ③ Reclining operation
次に、 使用者 Pが横臥する こ と こを希望する場合には、 操作ボタ ン 5 1 0 A、 5 1 0 Bを同時に開放 Kに操作すれば、 エ ア ク ッ シ ョ ン部 3 0 0 A 、 3 0 0 Bは共に大気開放される こ と となるので使用者 Pの体重によ って 可動枠部 2 0 0 は、 再び枢着軸 2 3 0 を支点と して横臥方向 (矢印口) に 回動されて リ ク ラ イ ニ ング位置、 更には横臥位置に復帰させる こ とが出来 る ものである (第 6 図(1) ) 。 Next, when the user P wants to lie down, the operation buttons 5110A and 5110B are simultaneously operated to open K, and the air cushion section 30 is opened. Since both 0 A and 300 B are open to the atmosphere, the movable frame portion 200 is again laid on the pivot shaft 230 as a fulcrum depending on the weight of the user P. It can be returned to the reclining position and further to the reclining position by turning to the arrow (Fig. 6 (1)).
(3) 他の使用状態 (3) Other usage conditions
使用者 Pが安楽に感ずる可動枠部 2 0 0 の起立及び傾斜角度 (ひ) 、 ( β ) の差異は使用者 Ρ ごとの個有の身体軸のズレに起因する ものであつ て、 その角度の調節に当たっては前記の手順の他にも以下に述べるよ う に エアク ッ シ ョ ン部 3 0 0 A、 3 0 0 Bを個別的に操作する手順が挙げられ るので、 使用者 Pは適宜これを選択して実行すればよいものである。 The difference in the standing and tilting angles (h) and (β) of the movable frame portion 200 that the user P feels comfortable is due to the displacement of the body axis that is unique to each user Ρ and the angle. In addition to the above procedure, the adjustment of Since a procedure for individually operating the action units 300A and 300B is given, the user P may select and execute the procedure as appropriate.
① 左 (右) 側を大角度で起立させ、 次いで右 (左) 側を小角度で起立 させる。 ① Raise the left (right) side at a large angle, and then raise the right (left) side at a small angle.
② 左右両側を大角度で起立させ、 次いで左 (右) の一方のみを小角度 となるよ う にする。 ② Raise the left and right sides at a large angle, and then set only one of the left (right) to a small angle.
前記した①、 ②の場合には、 可動枠部 2 0 0 の傾斜中心位置は、 可動枠 部 2 0 0 の変位に伴って左 (又は右) に移動する こ と とな り、 左 (右) の 片側のみを起立させた場台に比較して、 よ り一層身体軸のズレ に適台する 可動枠部 2 0 0 の位置が確保出来る ものである。 In cases (1) and (2) above, the tilt center position of the movable frame part 200 moves left (or right) with the displacement of the movable frame part 200, and the left (right) The position of the movable frame 200, which is more suitable for the displacement of the body axis, can be ensured as compared with the case where only one side of the above is raised.
従って、 この装置 1 0 0 0 によれば、 使用者 P は疲労感や窮屈感を意識 する こ とな く 長時間にわたって同じ姿勢を維持し う る ものである。 Therefore, according to the device 100, the user P can maintain the same posture for a long time without being conscious of the feeling of fatigue or cramp.
尚、 エアク ッ シ ョ ン部 3 0 0 については、 エアバッ グ形態の他に流体シ リ ン ダ手段、 電動モータ手段も し く はジ ャ ッ キ手段等を利用出来る力;、 可 動枠部 2 0 0 の位置を強制的に変更させう る同様の手段を採用出来る こ と は言う までもないこ とである。 The actuation section 300 has a force capable of utilizing a fluid cylinder means, an electric motor means or a jacking means in addition to an airbag form; and a movable frame section. It goes without saying that a similar means for forcibly changing the position of 200 can be adopted.

これによ つて使用者 P ' の上半身は、 腰部を支点と して左 (右) 方向に 背骨が捻られた状態で上半身が支持される こ と となる。 As a result, the upper body of the user P 'is supported in a state where the spine is twisted left (right) with the lumbar portion as a fulcrum.
と ころで、 使用者 P ' は前記のよ う に個有の身体軸のズレがあるこ とが 検証されており、 前記のよ う な可動枠部 2 0 0 ' の捻り状態が使用者 P ' の身体軸の捻れに適合すれば、 疲れや窮屈感を感ずる こ とな く 安楽感をも つて長時間にわたって上半身を可動枠部 2 0 0 ' に凭れさせた同じ姿勢で 過ごすこ とが出来る ものであって、 健常者や介護の必要な人や病人も し く はハ ンディ キャ ッ プを持つ人達のみな らず、 格別に支障のない人たちにと つても快適な ものが得られる ものである。 と こ ろで、 通常使用者 P ' は自身の身体軸のズレが左又は右方向へどの 位の角度であるかを知ってはいない。 At this point, it has been verified that the user P 'has a unique body axis shift as described above, and the twisted state of the movable frame portion 200' as described above indicates that the user P 'has twisted. By adapting to the torsion of the body axis, it is possible to spend the same time with the upper body leaning against the movable frame section 200 'for a long time with a sense of comfort without feeling tired or cramped. It provides comfort for not only healthy people, people in need of care, sick people or people with handicap, but also those with no particular problems. is there. By the way, the user P 'usually does not know how much the deviation of his body axis is left or right.
しかしながら、 この可動枠部 2 0 0 ' の捻り角度 ( ^ ' ) については、 予め使用者 P ' の身体軸の捻れについて計測する必要はな く、 例えば上半 身を捻った状態で可動枠部 2 0 0 ' に支持させて、 約 3 0 秒程度経過させ るだけで、 例えば違和感や窮屈感、 更には痛みなどを感ずる場合には、 そ の要因は可動枠部 2 0 0 ' の捻り角度 ( /3 ' ) が上半身の身体軸のズレと 一致していないが故であつて、 更に左右の操作ボタ ン 5 1 O A ' 又は 5 1 0 B ' を操作して始動 Mも し く は開放 K ' とする こ とによ って可動枠部 2 0 0 ' の捻り角度 ( ' ) を変更調節 し、 更に約 3 0秒程度、 同じ姿勢を 維持する手順を繰り返すう ちに使用者 P ' に適合する可動枠部 2 0 0 ' の 捻り角度 β ' ) が確保される ものである。 However, regarding the torsion angle (^ ') of the movable frame 200', it is not necessary to measure the twist of the body axis of the user P 'in advance. For example, the movable frame 200 is twisted with the upper body twisted. For example, if you feel uncomfortable, cramped, or even painful after holding it at 200 'for about 30 seconds, the cause is the twist angle of the movable frame part 200'. (/ 3 ') does not correspond to the displacement of the body axis of the upper body, and then operate the left or right operation button 51 OA' or 510 B 'to start or open M By changing the torsion angle (') of the movable frame part 200' by changing it to K ', the user P' is repeated after repeating the procedure of maintaining the same posture for about 30 seconds. The torsion angle β ′) of the movable frame portion 200 ′ conforming to the above is secured.
この結果、 使用者 P ' は自身の身体軸のズレに適合した状態に可動枠部 2 0 0 ' を変位させて長時間にわたって継続して安楽にこの身体支持装置 を利用 し う る ものである。 As a result, the user P 'displaces the movable frame portion 200' in a state adapted to the deviation of the body axis of the user and uses the body support device comfortably continuously for a long time. .
