Abstract

Braces having a beep identifier of the wrong body position of the body, the braces comprising fastening elements in the form of belts or tapes, the braces further comprising symetrical shoulder clampings (1) having the length controlled by elements (8) and are connected by clamp (9) having rounded shape, where the braces have an electric device having contacts (2, 3) initializing the sound signal (6) or/and the vibrating signal (7) through the connector (5) of the contacts (2, 3) through the tension of the elastic element (4) or the elastic belt (10) through its vertical pressure on the elastic switch key (11) which is placed on the inner surface (12) of the clamp (9). It is preferred that, the elements (8) for controlling their lenght are : metalic clamps, snap fasterners or velcros and the clampings (8) are permanently connected to the clamp (9).

Description

Braces having the beep identifier of the wrong body position

The subject matter of the invention are braces having the beep identifier of the wrong body position which is used for the personal control of the human posture and is designed to create the habit of the correct body position.

From the British Patent Specification no. 2,21 1,429 it is known the device used while walking, which enables to keep the horizontal position at the initial phase of walking. The device consists of the support construction which has the pair of side stoppers, a cross - bar and rings wherein the rings are fastened on frames. The device is complicated and it is difficult to operate and assigned for young childeren.

It is known from the Polish Utility Model Specification no. 52,564 the training device which is in the form of a ladder and its upper arm is joined to the top of the ladder at the right angle. The device has handles in the form of apretures. It enables the correction of the body position by exercises and keeps the correct posture. The device is stationary and cannot be used out of the training hall.

There are known posture correctors, particularly used for children in the form of webbings having two belts crossed at the back and linked at the shoulders. The wrong body position which could be observed as a back convexity causes the mechanical belt part pressing and the disadvantageous belt pressing on the back of the body. When the correct body position is achieved the belt pressing stops. Using the correctors permanently causes the user to disregard the uncomfortable belt pressing. The aim of the invention is to provide the construction of braces having the beep identifier of the wrong body position which enables the permanent using without known drawbacks . The identifier also transmits a signal to the user who gets the wrong body position.

Braces having the beep identifier of the wrong body position having the body with fastening elements in a form of belts or tapes according to the invention are chraracterised by that, they have the symetiϊcal shoulder clampings having movable controlling lenght by the elements and are connected by the clamp having rounded shape. The braces have an electric device having contacts initializing the sound signal or/ and the vibrating signal through the connector of the contacts through the tension of the elastic element or the elastic belt through its vertical pressure on the elastic switch key . The key is placed on the inner surface of the clamp. It is preferred that, the elements for controlling their lenght are: metalic clamps, snap fasterners or velcros and the clampings are permanently connected to the clamp.

Braces having beep identifier according to the invention preferably enable their temporary use particularly for children while working, relaxing or playing games. They also enable easy movement while walking and seating and by recording of the signal which is attractive for children as it creates a kind of a game. Braces stabilize the correct body posture by permanent easy use.

The subject matter of the invention is shown in the following example in the fig. where the fig 1. shows the view of the clamp with the parts of the shoulder clamping, in a turning off position of the contactor, fig. 2 shows the view of the contactor, wherein it signalizes the wrong body position by turning on the beep - identifing element, fig 3 shows the view of the braces having symetrical shoulder clamping elements with the elements for controlling their lenght and the shape of the clamp, fig 4 shows functional diagram of the elastic belt connected with the shoulder clampings and placed inside the clamp, the belt starts the elestic contactor of the sound signal or vibration signal through its vertical pressure.

Braces having the beep identifier of ..the wrong body position having the body with fastening elements in a form of belts or tapes according to the invention are chraracterised by that, they have the symetrical shoulder clampings (1) having movable controlling lenght by the elements (8) and are connected by the clamp (9) having rounded shape, where the braces have an electric device having contacts (2, 3) initializing the sound signal (6) or/ and the vibrating signal (7) through the connector (5) of the contacts (2, 3) through the tension of the elastic element (4)or the elastic belt (10) through its vertical pressure on the elastic switch key (11) which is placed on the inner surface (12) of the clamp (9). It is preferred that, the elements (8) for controlling their lenght are: metalic clamps, snap fasterners or velcros and the clampings (8) are permanently connected to the clamp (9)
