Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a user-adjustable waist support belt, and more specifically, to a user-adjustable waist support belt that can be easily worn by the user according to their convenience, can provide protection and support for the spine through air so as not to feel any strangeness or discomfort when worn, and can provide a heat therapy function to relieve back pain. Background Technology

[0002] Generally, waist support belts are used to protect the waist, and are particularly necessary for workers who transport heavy objects or people who exercise. Recently, as the number of workers engaged in computer-based work has increased, and as the number of ordinary people complaining of physical imbalance or back pain due to sitting for long periods or using smartphones, tablets, and laptops has also increased, they are being used to correct and maintain posture or to protect the spine by reducing pressure applied to the waist.

[0003] Regarding such a device for supporting the waist, there exists the prior art disclosed in Korean Registered Patent Publication No. 10-1205285, "Spinal Traction Support Correction Belt," which allows the user to wear it directly on their waist to effectively support and traction the spine.

[0004] However, in the case of conventional waist support belts, including prior art, they are strongly secured with wires or similar means to maintain proper posture and provide spinal support. Although they include a frame—that is, a component made of a rigid material—to support and protect the user's spine, there are concerns that users may complain of pain due to their backs rubbing against the frame when moving after wearing the belt, and that the unfamiliar sensation may cause users to be reluctant to wear and use the waist support belt.

[0005] Furthermore, since the waist support belt is worn directly by the user, it must be worn correctly so that the frame fits the position of the spine; there are also concerns that if the user fails to do so, the spinal protection and support effects may be reduced.

[0006] In particular, since body types vary among users of waist support belts, there are concerns that it is very difficult to achieve the belt's intended role and effectiveness if a rigid frame is installed in a position different from the manufacturer's or user's intent. Prior art literature

[0033] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the attached drawings. Identical reference numerals in each drawing indicate identical components. In describing the present invention, specific descriptions regarding related known functions or configurations are omitted to avoid obscuring the essence of the invention.

[0034] FIG. 1 shows the exterior of a user-customizable adjustable waist support belt according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is an example diagram showing a partially unfolded form of a user-customizable adjustable waist support belt according to the present invention, FIG. 3 shows another embodiment of a control unit according to the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a configuration diagram of a control unit according to the present invention.

[0035] The present invention relates to a user-adjustable waist support belt, and more specifically, to a user-adjustable waist support belt that can be easily worn by the user according to their convenience, can provide protection and support for the spine through air so as not to feel any strangeness or discomfort when worn, and can provide a heat therapy function to relieve back pain.

[0036] This waist support belt (1) may include a frame part (100), a heating part (200), and a control part (300).

[0037] First, the frame portion (100) has a rectangular shape that can be wrapped around the user's body, that is, the waist, and connecting members (110) are formed at both ends so that the user can wrap the frame portion (100) around the waist and then connect a pair of connecting members (110) to each other to wrap and secure it around the waist.

[0038] One side of the frame part (100) is a contact surface (100a) that is in close contact with the user's body, and the contact surface (100a) is equipped with a heating part (200) to provide a heating function to the user's body, and a connecting member (110) is formed at each end of the other side, so that the user can easily wear the waist support belt (1) by wrapping the waist support belt (1) around the body in a form that is in close contact with the waist of the contact surface (100a) and then fixing it in a state wrapped around the waist through the connection between the connecting members (110).

[0039] At this time, the connecting member (110) can be manufactured in various embodiments as long as it is a pair of components that can be connected, but it is most preferable to use a Velcro-type connecting member so that it can be applied to various bodies due to the different bodies of each user. In this case, the embodiment according to the Velcro-type connecting member (110) is formed as shown in FIG. 2, where the first connecting member (111) is formed on the contact surface (100a) together with the heating part (200) and is formed at one end, and the second connecting member (112) is formed on the other end and is formed on the outer surface, so that when the user wears it, the first connecting member (111) is selectively attached to the second connecting member (112) with a wide surface area to fit the user's waist circumference, thereby connecting the first and second connecting members (110) to each other.

[0040] Therefore, instead of simply wrapping the waist support belt (1) around the waist to fit the waist circumference, the upper and lower circumferences of the waist support belt (1) are also adjusted and combined to fit the shape of the abdomen, etc., so that it can be worn to fit the user's body.

[0041] In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, one end of the frame portion (100) on which the first connecting member (111) is formed is divided into a pair of branches so that the first connecting member (111) formed on the upper and lower sides, respectively, can be selectively connected to the second connecting member (112) to have different circumferences.

[0042] At this time, as shown in FIG. 2, one end of the frame part (100) may be divided into a pair of branches, but is not limited thereto and may be made up of multiple branches.

[0043] In this frame portion (100), an inlet (120) is formed on the outer surface through which air can be introduced from the outside, and a housing (130) is formed that is internally connected to the inlet (120) and is embedded in the frame portion (100) to form a hollow.

[0044] At this time, the inlet (120) can be made of a pop-up type rubber tube, such as the air inlet of a water play tube, so that the protruding inlet (120) does not interfere with the user's activities and can be easily stored and kept.

[0045] In addition, a valve (not shown in the drawing) that can be opened and closed according to the operation of the control unit (300) is built into the inside of the inlet (120), and can be automatically opened and closed according to the operation or command value of the control unit (300) to control the amount of air to be filled, the filling speed, etc., inside the housing (130).

[0046] The above housing (130) can have air introduced through the inlet (120) into the hollow formed inside, and the shape and thickness of the frame part (100) can be expanded through this introduced air.

[0047] Meanwhile, the housing (130) is connected to the inlet (120) and formed as one unit, and this housing (130) can be evenly formed inside along the extension direction of the frame part (100). Depending on the user's needs, air is not required to flow throughout the entire frame part (100), but rather to flow in by part so that the required strength or thickness for each worn part is adjusted.

[0048] Accordingly, this housing (130) may be composed of a plurality of divided housings (131) that are divided along the extension direction of the frame portion (100).

[0049] These divided housings (131) can each be connected to one inlet (120), and in another embodiment, one inlet (120) can be connected to one divided housing (131) to each other, so that multiple divided housings (131) and inlets (120) can be manufactured.

[0050] Accordingly, air can be selectively introduced into a plurality of divided housings (131) through this inlet (120), thereby controlling the degree of air inflow to introduce air into each divided housing (131) according to the user's body or movement, and by driving the inflow and outflow of air into each divided housing (131) differently, a massage effect can be provided to the user through the expansion of the housing (130). This allows the user to perform a massage function or selectively introduce or discharge air into the divided housing (131) corresponding to the necessary area through a control unit (300) connected to the frame part (100), which will be explained in more detail when describing the control unit (300).

[0051] This frame part (100) can be made of a fabric material to provide a comfortable fit for the user, and can also be made of a material that can be expanded, such as PVC or a tube. Meanwhile, since the fabric material does not have elasticity, the overall shape of the waist support belt (1) may expand slightly when air is filled into the housing (130), but users with a long waist or those who wish to wear a longer waist support belt (1) may want to adjust the vertical height of the waist support belt (1).

[0052] Accordingly, in another embodiment, the frame portion (100) may additionally form an extension frame (140) in the vertical direction, and the extension frame (140) may be optionally connected to the interior of the housing (130) embedded in the frame portion (100).

[0053] At this time, an opening / closing switch (141) may be additionally built into the position within the expansion frame (140) that is connected to the housing (130). This opening / closing switch (141) can be opened / closed via a control unit (300), and when a user operates the opening / closing switch (141) to open it, the air flowing into the housing (130) can pass through the inside of the housing (130) and also flow into the inside of the expansion frame (140). Through this, the expansion frame (140) is also expanded by the air filled inside, allowing the user to wear a waist support belt (1) with a longer length in the vertical direction.

[0054] That is, air can be selectively introduced into the housing (130) and the extension frame (140) through the operation of the control unit (300) according to the thickness and length desired by the user, and thereby the extension frame (140) and the housing (130) can have the same thickness but be used as a waist support belt (1) at the length desired by the user.

[0055] Meanwhile, the housing (130) may be made of a material such as rubber or vinyl that can block the outside, rather than fabric, so that air is not discharged to the outside, and the internal or entire material of the expansion frame (140) may also be made of a material such as rubber or vinyl so that its shape and volume can change through air filled inside.

[0056] Additionally, when a user bends their upper body to lift a heavy load, it may be difficult to lift the upper body easily due to weak waist strength. Therefore, if the user does not have sufficient strength to lift the upper body, air is introduced into the split housing (131) adjacent to the abdomen to increase the hardness and thickness of the waist support belt (1), thereby providing the user with sufficient strength to lift the upper body and also performing the role of pulling the user's waist.

[0057] At this time, air can be further filled into the divided housing (131) located on the abdominal side, or conversely, air filled in the divided housing (131) located on the waist side can be discharged to the outside through the connected inlet (120).

[0058] Additionally, the frame part (100) can be connected to a separate power supply device (not shown in the drawing) from the outside to receive power to drive the waist support belt (1), and when connected to a power terminal (not shown in the drawing) that can be connected to the power supply device, it includes a built-in battery that can charge power, so that the user can easily move while wearing the waist support belt (1) and frequently obtain the heating function, muscle massage, and other massage functions provided by the waist support belt (1).

[0059] Therefore, a user wearing the waist support belt (1) is not restricted in movement, and can carry the waist support belt (1) and easily attach and detach it in any desired situation, allowing for long-term use.

[0060] The heating element (200) is formed on the inner side of the frame element (100), that is, on the contact surface (100a) that is in close contact with the user's body, and a plurality of heating units (220) are distributed spaced apart from each other on the heating frame (210) so as to provide a heating function to the user's body over the entire contact surface (100a) that is in close contact with the waist support belt (1).

[0061] The heating frame (210) may be formed integrally with the contact surface (100a) or may be manufactured to be detachably attached to the contact surface (100a). This heating frame (210) may be electrically connected by being in close contact with the frame part (100), and may be driven by receiving power through a built-in battery embedded in the frame part (100) or a connected power supply device to drive the heating unit (220) and provide a heating function to the user.

[0062] The detachable heating frame (210) can be separated from the frame part (100) by the user to charge it separately from the outside, or by the user who only needs the heating function to separate the heating frame (210) from the frame part (100) and connect it to an external power supply to use only the heating function separately, thereby further improving the usability of the waist support belt (1).

[0063] In this heating frame (210), power can be supplied from the frame part (100), or a separate connection terminal (not shown in the drawing) can be formed to connect to an external power supply device, thereby providing power from the outside to drive the heating part (200).

[0064] The heating unit (220) is formed on the inner surface that is in close contact with the user's body, and when the heating unit (220) is operated, the temperature rises and can provide a warming sensation to the user's body that is in close contact.

[0065] At this time, the heating unit (220) may be composed of a light-emitting unit that emits infrared rays, and may provide a warming sensation while emitting infrared rays to the user's body.

[0066] Additionally, the heating units (220) are composed of multiple units and are formed spaced apart at regular intervals along the inner surface of the heating frame (210). Although all of these heating units (220) can be operated through the control unit (300), if the user wishes to provide a heating sensation only to a desired body part, the multiple heating units (220) can be selectively operated according to the heating setting value built into the control unit (300) to provide a heating sensation through infrared irradiation.

[0067] That is, when the user wants to stop the operation of the heating unit (220) because the waist area feels hot while the heating unit (200) is operating, the user can operate the control unit (300) to stop the operation of only the heating unit (220) located in the waist area, so that only that area can feel the heat sensation through the heating unit (220) located in the side or abdomen area.

[0068] At this time, the heating unit (220) that the user can control can be divided into upper, lower, waist, abdominal, etc. according to the heating setting value stored in the control unit (300), and the user can control the operation of the heating unit (200) by operating the operation according to the desired heating setting value through these heating setting values.

[0069] In addition, if the user wants to increase the temperature of the heating unit (220) on both sides while operating the heating unit (200), the user can select a heating setting value including the heating unit (220) on both sides through the control unit (300) and operate the control switch (310) provided in the control unit (300) to increase or decrease the temperature.

[0070] At this time, the control unit (300) may additionally be equipped with a display that allows the user to directly check the temperature value, and the user can directly control the temperature of the heating unit (220) to the desired temperature while checking the value.

[0071] The control unit (300) can control the operation of the frame unit (100) and the heating unit (200) by being directly connected to the frame unit (100) or through a connection via communication.

[0072] This control unit (300) is made of a device such as a separate controller and can be used separately from the frame unit (100) or attached to the outer surface of the frame unit (100).

[0073] The control unit (300) is equipped with an adjustment switch (310) so that the user can directly control the operation of the waist support belt (1) according to the desired settings, and the user can control the operation of the waist support belt (1) through this adjustment switch (310).

[0074] These control switches (310) are composed of multiple buttons, each capable of performing functions such as power, control, air intake, and air exhaust.

[0075] In addition, the user can directly control the amount of air filled and the speed of inflow and outflow through the control switch (310) to obtain a massage effect through air pressure, thereby allowing the user to receive a massage of the desired intensity and strength.

[0076] Meanwhile, the control unit (300) is formed as a device such as a controller and can be used separately from or attached to the waist support belt (1). However, when the control unit (300) is used separately from the frame unit (100), there is a concern that it may be difficult for a user wearing the waist support belt (1) to immediately control the operation of the waist support belt (1) because it is difficult to determine the location of the control unit (300).

[0077] Accordingly, a plurality of individual switches (320) may be additionally provided according to the position corresponding to the divided housing (131).

[0078] The individual switch (320) is formed in a form attached to the outer surface of the frame part (100) and can control the operation of each divided housing (131) and the heating unit (220) located in the divided housing (131).

[0079] These individual switches (320) are formed in pairs according to location and can control the split housing (131) and heating unit (220) at each corresponding location, and these individual switches (320) can be formed identically according to the number of split housings (131) and spaced apart from each other along the outer surface.

[0080] At this time, the individual switch (320) is in the form of a push button, and depending on the number of pressurization cycles, the air inflow and the degree of heat radiated from the heating unit (220) can be controlled according to preset values ​​at levels of stop, low, medium, and high.

[0081] Therefore, through these individual switches, the user can quickly control the operation of the split housing (131) and the heating unit (220), and if necessary, directly drive the control unit (300) to precisely control the air filling level of the split housing (131) and the exact temperature of the heating unit (220) through the control switch (310).

[0082] For example, when a user wants to operate the waist support belt (1) while moving, they can easily and quickly perform the desired function by simply operating only the individual switch (320) corresponding to the desired body position.

[0083] This control unit (300) is additionally equipped with a display panel so that the user can check and adjust the aforementioned heat setting value, the desired temperature of the heat unit (220), etc. through the display panel.

[0084] The control unit (300) may additionally include a memory in which preset settings, such as a heat setting value, can be stored.

[0085] Meanwhile, since the waist support belt (1) can be widely applied to users with various body types, it is difficult to have a shape that fits the spine or side. However, when a user moves after wearing the waist support belt (1), the waist support belt (1) may move to fit the user's body, and there is a concern that it may be difficult to obtain spine protection or posture correction effects due to improper wearing.

[0086] Accordingly, in the present invention, a sensor unit (not shown in the drawing) is additionally included in the waist support belt (1) to monitor the user's body and to automatically control the operation of the waist support belt (1) so as to correct and maintain the correct posture.

[0087] The sensor portions are distributed in multiple numbers along the contact surface (100a) of the frame portion (100) and can be evenly distributed with spaced apart from each other in vertical and horizontal directions.

[0088] Accordingly, when the user wears the waist support belt (1), the sensor unit detects whether it is in close contact with the user's body, measures the pressure and temperature detected by the sensor unit and stores them in the memory, and can monitor the user's body.

[0089] The sensor unit includes a pressure sensor and a temperature sensor to monitor whether the user is wearing it, posture, etc., and can measure the temperature of the heat sensation provided to the user through infrared rays emitted from the actual heating unit (220) via the temperature sensor and provide guidance to the user through the control unit (300).

[0090] This sensor unit transmits the measured and collected values ​​to memory and compares them with the driving values ​​stored in memory so that the control unit (300) can automatically perform the necessary functions.

[0091] For example, if a user experiences abdominal pain, the pain may be exacerbated as the abdomen becomes cold. In such cases, the sensor unit automatically measures the user's body temperature and transmits the measured value of the lowered temperature to the control unit (300). If the measured value is lower than a previously stored driving value, the heating unit (220) of the corresponding area is automatically activated to provide a heating function to the user in that area. This allows the temperature to be maintained at the same level throughout the entire wearing area and assists in maintaining the user's body temperature.

[0092] In addition, the sensor unit is additionally equipped with a gyroscope sensor so that when the user bends over and tries to stand up again, the air intake of the housing (130) located on the abdomen or back is automatically adjusted to perform the role of pulling the waist.

[0093] In addition, the user's spine position can be determined based on the pressure felt by the sensor and the location provided by the sensor, and the operation of the waist support belt (1) can be controlled according to the user's spine position.

[0094] For example, when a user wears the waist support belt (1), the position of the spine can be determined due to the pressure of the spinal erector muscles, as the belt is in close contact with the spinal erectors located on both sides of the spine. Therefore, when determining the position of the spine, the area in close contact is determined based on this, and the waist support belt (1) can be adjusted according to the body part in close contact.

[0095] In addition, when performing work in a seated position for a long time, the user's upper body may gradually lean forward, potentially leading to conditions such as forward head posture. In such cases, pressure increases on the sensor unit in close contact with the bent lower back, and the control unit (300) measures this change in pressure and additionally introduces air to the excessively close position through the sensor unit, thereby inducing the user to straighten their lower back and live in a correct posture through the inflated waist support belt (1).

[0096] In addition, if the body has left-right imbalance and strong pressure is measured only on one side of the sensor, the air in the housing (130) of that part can be automatically discharged to induce both sides to have the same pressure.

[0097] These driving values ​​are stored in memory within the control unit (300) to determine the user's physical condition according to the pressure of each part, and the control unit (300) can be driven through the corresponding command values ​​so that the control unit (300) can control the operation of the frame unit (100) and the heating unit (200) accordingly.

[0098] The sensor unit can guide the user to maintain a correct posture and, including a gyroscope sensor, detect sudden changes in the user's body tilt, determine an emergency situation accordingly, and send an additional rescue signal to the outside.

[0099] For example, if a user suddenly falls or collapses, the sensor unit can measure the sudden change in body tilt and strong pressure caused by the collision with the ground. At this time, if the user's body movement is not detected for more than a predetermined time stored in memory, it is determined that the user has lost consciousness, and a speaker or light-emitting member included in the control unit (300) can be driven to send a rescue signal to the outside.

[0100] Additionally, the control unit (300) may additionally include a communication module internally and be connected to the frame unit (100), the heating unit (200), and the sensor unit via wireless communication methods such as Bluetooth and Zigbee, but may also be connected to a terminal (2) carried by the user. Accordingly, when the sensor unit detects that the user is in a critical situation when a sudden change in the user's body occurs, it sends a signal to the user terminal (2) connected via wireless communication methods to transmit a message, etc., to a designated guardian or a nearby public institution capable of emergency rescue, such as 119.

[0101] Therefore, safety can also be improved by having an elderly person who lives alone or has difficulty moving wear the waist support belt (1) according to the present invention.

[0102] In addition, the sensor unit measures not only whether the user wearing the waist support belt (1) is moving or moving, but also the distance traveled and the intensity of the movement, and stores the corresponding values ​​in memory within the control unit (300). The user can also directly monitor the exercise effect through their stored body movements by connecting to a terminal (2) they possess via a communication module.

[0103] In addition, a plurality of vibration modules (not shown in the drawing) may be additionally included inside the frame part (100).

[0104] A plurality of such vibration modules are formed and distributed according to the area of ​​the frame portion (100), and can provide massage and diet effects by moving the user's body through micro-vibrations. When the user's movement measured by the sensor portion is detected to be below a certain activity level for a predetermined set time, the control unit (300) can control the operation of the vibration module to vibrate by determining that the user is dozing off or working in the same posture.

[0105] Therefore, the user can lead a healthy life by being aware through the suddenly activated vibration module that they have fallen asleep or have been working in the same posture for a long time, and by inducing the user to take a walk, wash their face, or stretch.

[0106] By providing a massage effect through air pressure to the user through the above-described waist support belt (1) and a heat compress function through the heating part (200), it is possible to not only simply support or protect the user's waist but also alleviate pain in the area of ​​wear by providing massage and heat compress effects, and also have a fatigue relief effect by relieving muscle tension.

[0107] In addition, by monitoring the user's body and filling or releasing air in the divided housing (131) corresponding to the necessary parts to maintain a correct posture, it is possible to prevent maintaining an unbalanced posture, and thereby also obtain a sleep prevention effect.

[0108] Optimal embodiments have been disclosed in the drawings and specification. Specific terms have been used herein, but are used only for the purpose of describing the invention and are not intended to limit the meaning or the scope of the invention as described in the claims. Therefore, those skilled in the art will understand that various modifications and equivalent alternative embodiments are possible therefrom. Accordingly, the true technical scope of protection of the invention should be determined by the technical spirit of the appended claims. Explanation of the symbols
