Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of health care equipment, and in particular to a physiotherapy lumbar support. Background Technology

[0002] In contemporary society, the digitalization of work patterns, the convenience of home life, and the mobility of travel have collectively given rise to a widespread sedentary lifestyle. Office workers typically sit for more than 8 hours a day, maintaining a fixed posture for extended periods while processing documents and coordinating work. People at home also frequently use electronic devices and watch movies while seated during leisure time. Long-distance drivers must maintain a seated posture for hours in the confined space of a car. In these scenarios, the lower back is constantly under static stress, with muscle fibers continuously tense, and the pressure on the intervertebral discs far exceeding that when standing. Over time, this leads to a series of lower back health problems. From initial lower back soreness and muscle stiffness, to mid-stage lumbar muscle strain and straightening of the lumbar spine's physiological curvature, and then to later degenerative diseases such as lumbar disc herniation, lower back discomfort has become a common health pain point troubling office workers, home dwellers, and driving enthusiasts. This has led to an increasingly urgent demand from consumers for supportive products that can improve lower back health, resulting in a continuous rise in market attention and purchasing intentions for lumbar support products.

[0003] Currently available traditional lumbar support products are designed primarily for basic physical support, with core solutions revolving around adjusting the stress on the lower back. Some products use fixed materials like foam or memory foam, employing a pre-designed curved structure to conform to the lower back and provide basic support. Others incorporate airbag components, but these can only be adjusted for height by simple inflation or deflation, barely accommodating the different lumbar heights of users. However, these traditional lumbar supports have significant functional limitations and fail to meet users' deeper needs for lower back care.

[0004] On the one hand, traditional lumbar supports lack active intervention capabilities. They can only passively change the distribution of force on the lower back, failing to effectively relieve tension and stiffness in the lower back muscles. For example, the soreness in the lower back muscles caused by prolonged sitting cannot be relieved by traditional lumbar supports through physical or technical means; users still need to rely on external massage or getting up and moving around to improve the situation, greatly limiting the product's care value. On the other hand, traditional lumbar supports completely ignore the need for warmth. The lower back is a part of the body easily chilled, and in low-temperature environments (such as winter offices or air-conditioned rooms) or after prolonged exposure, it is prone to problems such as slowed blood circulation and muscle spasms. Providing warmth can effectively promote blood circulation in the lower back and relieve muscle tension. However, traditional lumbar supports, lacking heating functions, not only fail to solve this problem, but some materials may even become stiff at low temperatures, reducing support comfort.

[0005] With the overall improvement of national health awareness, consumers' demand for lumbar support products has upgraded from mere support to comprehensive care. They expect lumbar supports to not only improve the stress on the lower back but also proactively relieve muscle fatigue and provide warm comfort, achieving a dual effect of support and care. The single-function attributes of traditional lumbar supports are seriously out of step with the market's advanced needs and cannot meet users' diverse and in-depth expectations for lower back health care. The market urgently needs a new type of lumbar support product that integrates multiple care functions and proactively addresses lower back discomfort to fill this functional gap and provide users with more comprehensive lower back health protection. Utility Model Content

[0006] One advantage of this invention is that it provides a therapeutic lumbar support, which uses a low-frequency plate to deliver low-frequency pulses to actively soothe the lumbar muscles, overcoming the limitation of traditional lumbar supports that only provide passive support, effectively relieving muscle tension and stiffness, and further improving lumbar comfort.
