Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of lying mat technology, and in particular a multifunctional lying mat for correcting lumbar and cervical spine. Background Technology

[0002] For students, especially primary school students, neglecting their posture and maintaining incorrect posture for extended periods can easily lead to deformation of the neck or lower back, causing the lumbar or cervical spine to lose its normal physiological curvature. For working professionals or those who love using mobile phones, prolonged periods of walking with their heads down while using their phones, or using them while leaning on a sofa or bed, can easily cause deformation of the physiological curvature of the cervical and lumbar spine. Workers, especially those who sit for long periods, are also prone to lumbar spine deformation, leading to diseases such as lumbar disc herniation. For the elderly, lumbar or cervical spine problems are even more common due to their advanced age. Therefore, lumbar or cervical spine problems are now widespread, with some people experiencing mild symptoms while others have more severe symptoms that even affect their normal work and study.

[0003] To improve or correct the physiological curvature of the lumbar or cervical spine, and to restore a healthy physical state and good posture, users can use multifunctional posture-correcting mats. Traditional posture-correcting mats are poorly designed and have limited functionality, serving only as a sleeping mat without adequate corrective and therapeutic benefits. While some posture-correcting mats exist, their shape and structural design are not yet perfect.

[0004] For example, CN214678345U discloses an inflatable, foldable, double-sided sleeping mat: "This invention discloses an inflatable, foldable, double-sided sleeping mat, including a mat body, an inflatable accordion-style compression frame, an adjustable chin support airbag, and an adjustable chest support airbag. The mat body is divided into an upper mat body and a lower mat body, connected by the inflatable accordion-style compression frame. The adjustable chin support airbag is located at the front end of the upper mat body to support the spine and prevent straightening of the curvature; the adjustable chest support airbag is located in a groove in the upper middle part of the upper mat body to reduce pressure on the female breasts. The upper mat body is equipped with silicone anti-slip particles. This invention, through its design of a 'petal' structure that is narrower at the top and wider at the bottom, with the narrowest part in the middle, meets the requirements of different body types for the mat area, effectively reducing the interference of the upper part of the mat body on the arms while providing shoulder support. This invention is novel in design, convenient to use, and easy to store, achieving the purpose of scientific posture correction, disease prevention, and convenient living." The aforementioned prone mat is not designed with corrective airbags. Since everyone's body shape and lumbar curvature are very different, the absence of corrective airbags may cause discomfort for some people with extreme body shapes and lumbar curvatures when prone. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a non-slip and wrinkle-resistant knee brace.

[0006] The objective of this invention is achieved as follows: A multifunctional lying mat for correcting lumbar and cervical spine includes a mat body and a main air bladder. The mat body and the main air bladder in an inflated state form an inclined surface on which a person can lie. The mat body has an inwardly concave chest groove corresponding to the chest of a person, and an inwardly concave waist groove corresponding to the waist of a person. The waist groove is provided with a corrective air bladder.

[0007] As a further improvement, the corrective airbag is attached to the waist groove by Velcro. The corrective airbag includes a first airbag, a second airbag, and a third airbag. The first airbag and the third airbag are symmetrically designed relative to the second airbag. The first airbag is a triangular prism-shaped airbag with a decreasing height from left to right, and the third airbag is a triangular prism-shaped airbag with a decreasing height from right to left.

[0008] As a further improvement, the cushion body is provided with a neck adjustment airbag that is detachably connected to it.

[0009] As a further improvement, the neck adjustment airbag is detachably connected to the pad body via Velcro. The neck adjustment airbag is covered with fabric, and the neck adjustment airbag can be fixed to any position on the textured area of ​​the pad body via Velcro hooks at its bottom. The neck adjustment airbag, the correction airbag, and the main airbag are connected to the inflation pump.

[0010] As a further improvement, the neck adjustment airbag, the correction airbag, and the main airbag are respectively connected to the inflation pump via an air tube connected to a solenoid valve. The solenoid valve and the inflation pump are connected to a circuit board, the circuit board is connected to the battery, and the circuit board is connected to the control panel. The textured area is provided with a shallow groove that conforms to the back of the human neck.

[0011] As a further improvement, the neck adjustment airbag has an arc-shaped groove in the middle that matches the shape of the chin so as to better fit against and conform to the human chin.

[0012] As a further improvement, the width of the upper part of the pad decreases to form an arm-fitting surface; the corrective airbag, after inflation, is an elliptical airbag with an elliptical cross-section, and the elliptical airbag is detachably connected to the upper surface of the waist groove.

[0013] As a further improvement, an outwardly convex support portion with an arc shape is formed between the chest groove and the waist groove, and a U-shaped three-layer inflatable bag is provided on one side of the support portion.

[0014] As a further improvement, the neck adjustment airbag, the correction airbag and the main airbag are all equipped with air nozzles, which are detachably connected to the inflation ball.

[0015] As a further improvement, the cushion and the main airbag are wrapped together with fabric, and the circuit board is equipped with an intelligent voice control module or a Bluetooth module.

[0016] The following are the outstanding and beneficial technical effects of this invention compared to the prior art.

[0017] (1) The mat has an inwardly concave waist groove corresponding to the waist of the human body. The waist groove is equipped with a correction airbag. The correction airbag can adjust the lumbar spine curvature of the user lying on the mat, which can ensure the user's comfort and play a good role in lumbar spine curvature.

[0018] (2) The pad is equipped with a neck adjustment airbag that can be detachably connected to it. The design of the detachable design can make the pad more functional. The pad with the neck adjustment airbag removed has different uses, making the pad more versatile.

[0019] (3) The neck adjustment airbag is covered with a cloth. When the mat gets dirty, you only need to wash the cloth covering it. The neck adjustment airbag has an arc-shaped groove in the middle that matches the shape of the chin so that it can better fit against the chin of the human body. The width of the upper part of the mat decreases to form an arm contact surface. This design can avoid the arm from interfering with the edge of the mat and thus affecting the user's arm movement. One side of the support part has a U-shaped three-layer inflatable bag that can be used to store inflatable balls or other items.

[0020] (4) By adjusting the height of the neck airbag, the user’s cervical spine can maintain different physiological curvatures, which can play a role in correcting the user’s cervical spine and thus treating cervical pain.

[0021] (5) All airbags of the mat can be inflated manually or automatically by an air pump. The automatic inflation method can realize the automation and intelligence of the mat. By connecting the Bluetooth module to the mobile phone, the inflation and deflation of each airbag can be controlled by the mobile phone. In addition, the inflation and deflation of the airbags can also be controlled by voice through the intelligent voice control module, and the heating and vibration status can also be controlled.

[0026] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the air nozzle structure of the present invention. Implementation

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments: like Figure 1 As shown, a multifunctional lying mat for correcting lumbar and cervical spine problems mainly includes a mat body 1 and a main air bladder 2. The mat body 1 and the main air bladder 2 in an inflated state form a sloping surface on which a person can lie down. When the user is not using the mat, the air inside the main air bladder 2 can be completely released, thereby greatly reducing the overall volume of the mat, reducing the space occupied by the user, and making it easy to store. The mat in this state can also be used as a temporary pillow. The mat body 1 has an inwardly concave chest groove 3 corresponding to the human chest. This chest groove 3 is mainly to make it more comfortable for female users to lie on, without compressing the female's chest.

[0028] As an improvement to this patent, the pad body 1 is provided with an inwardly concave lumbar groove 4 corresponding to the human waist. Since the lumbar spine of a healthy human has multiple physiological curvatures and is not a straight line, when the lumbar spine becomes a straight line, it means that the lumbar spine has been deformed. This will seriously affect the normal physiological activities of the human body and cause extreme pain. If it is not corrected and improved, it will continue to affect the health of the human body. Therefore, the pad needs to be designed with an ergonomic shape to correct the lumbar spine to its original healthy state. Therefore, the lumbar groove 4 is provided in the pad body 1 so that the lumbar spine can bend to its original or close to its original curvature when the user lies on it. However, due to the fact that most people have long-term neglect of their sitting posture during work and study, resulting in serious lumbar spine deformation, and some elderly people have lumbar spine deformation leading to hunchback and stiffness, they cannot adapt to the large bending of the lumbar spine under the action of gravity when using the pad for the first time. Therefore, it is very necessary to provide a correction airbag 5 in the lumbar groove 4.

[0029] The expansion degree of the corrective airbag 5 adjusts the physiological curvature of the lumbar spine when the user uses the mat. In actual use, when the user's lumbar spine is severely deformed and the user is elderly, the thickness and volume of the corrective airbag 5 in the lumbar groove 4 can be adjusted to the maximum during the first use. At this time, the depth of the lumbar groove 4 is the minimum. The purpose is to prevent the user from experiencing strong discomfort when using the mat. As the user uses the mat more often, the lumbar spine will gradually recover and improve. At this time, the user can gradually reduce the thickness of the airbag and gradually increase the depth of the lumbar groove 4. As a result, the physiological curvature of the lumbar spine will be greater when the user lies on the mat. This is a gradual process that corrects the user's lumbar spine to the optimal physiological curvature while ensuring user comfort, thus ensuring the user's best health.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the corrective airbag 5 is attached to the lumbar groove 4 via Velcro, making the corrective airbag 5 detachable and its position adjustable. The corrective airbag 5 includes a first airbag 6, a second airbag 7, and a third airbag 8. The first airbag 6 and the third airbag 8 are symmetrically designed relative to the second airbag 7. The first airbag 6 is a triangular prism-shaped airbag with decreasing height from left to right, and the third airbag 8 is a triangular prism-shaped airbag with decreasing height from right to left. This design has two beneficial effects: firstly, the triangular prism shape of the first airbag 6 with decreasing height from left to right and the triangular prism shape of the third airbag 8 with decreasing height from right to left allows the user to be stably positioned between the first airbag 6 and the third airbag 8; secondly, for users with scoliosis, the position of the first airbag 6 and the third airbag 8 can be adjusted to correct the scoliosis.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, this sleeping mat can not only correct the user's lumbar spine but also correct the cervical spine's physiological curvature. The mat body 1 is equipped with a detachable neck adjustment airbag 9. This detachable connection allows the sleeping mat to have two forms, enabling it to be used in both prone and reclining positions. By removing the neck adjustment airbag 9, the user can lie on the mat. In addition, the textured surface area 10 has a shallow groove that conforms to the back of the neck, making it more comfortable for the user to lie on. When the neck adjustment airbag 9 is on the sleeping mat, the user can adjust the size and thickness of the neck adjustment airbag 9 to adjust the height of the chin resting on the neck adjustment airbag 9, thereby adjusting the physiological curvature of the user's cervical spine to a normal and healthy state.

[0032] The aforementioned neck adjustment airbag 9 and the pad body 1 can be detachably connected via Velcro or other means. Users can cover the neck adjustment airbag 9 with fabric for easy cleaning and replacement. The neck adjustment airbag 9 can be fixed to any position on the rugged area 10 on the pad body 1 via Velcro hooks at its bottom, thus improving the flexibility of neck adjustment airbag 9 position adjustment. All the airbags mentioned above, including the neck adjustment airbag 9, the correction airbag 5, and the main airbag 2, have two inflation methods: one is by manually inflating the airbag, and the other is by using an electric air pump. The use of an electric air pump enables the intelligent operation of the mat.

[0033] The neck adjustment airbag 9, the correction airbag 5, and the main airbag 2 are each connected to an air pump via an air tube with a solenoid valve. The solenoid valve and the air pump are connected to a circuit board, which is connected to a battery and a control panel. By using the aforementioned components from the prior art, the user can control the inflation and deflation of each airbag using the control panel. Furthermore, as an upgrade to the massage mat, a smart voice control module or a Bluetooth module is provided on the circuit board. The user can also control the inflation and deflation of each airbag via voice control or by connecting a mobile phone to Bluetooth. In addition, a heating element and a vibration motor are installed inside the mat body 1 to realize the heating and vibration massage functions of the massage mat.

[0034] The neck adjustment airbag 9 has an arc-shaped groove 11 in the middle that matches the shape of the chin, so as to better fit against the human chin and maintain stability during use. The width of the upper part of the pad 1 decreases to form an arm-fitting surface 12, so that when the user lies on the pad to play with his / her mobile phone, his / her arms will not interfere with the pad 1 and thus affect the user's mobile phone use. The design is more humane. The user can play with his / her mobile phone while correcting the lumbar and cervical spine. Therefore, the user will not feel too bored during the correction process, nor will his / her time be wasted too much. This is conducive to the user's long-term use, so as to achieve the best correction effect.

[0035] After inflation, the corrective airbag 5 becomes an elliptical airbag 13 with an elliptical cross-section. The elliptical airbag 13 is detachably connected to the upper surface of the waist groove 4. The elliptical airbag 13 allows the user to lie on it with good comfort.

[0036] An outwardly protruding support portion 14 with an arc shape is formed between the chest groove 3 and the waist groove 4. A U-shaped three-layer inflatable balloon bag 17 is provided on one side of the support portion 14. Placing the inflatable balloon 16 in the inflatable balloon bag 17 makes it less likely to be lost. Moreover, the inflatable balloon bag 17 has a three-layer structure, which can be used not only to store the inflatable balloon 16, but also to store other items.

[0037] The neck adjustment airbag 9, the correction airbag 5, and the main airbag 2 are all equipped with air nozzles 15. The air nozzles 15 are detachably connected to the inflation ball 16. In actual use, the user aligns the inflation ball 16 with the air nozzle 15 and repeatedly squeezes the inflation ball 16 to inflate the corresponding airbag. After inflation, the inflation ball 16 is removed. When the user needs to deflate the corresponding airbag, he / she simply presses down the sealing ball in the center of the air nozzle 15 to release the gas inside the airbag, thereby deflating the corresponding airbag.

[0038] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
