Definitions
- Fig. 2 shows a detail of how the reclining board of
- the frame 5 is rotatably mounted to the fastening plate 3, and the frame 5 includes a plurality of rods having a substantially circular cross-section.
- a plurality of wheels 11 (Fig. 2) are arranged to roll on the frame in the directions corresponding to the length of a user's body, the wheels 11 is mounted in attaching members 12 (also best shown in Fig. 2) .
- the wheels are preferably made as guide wheels, each having a concave tread so that it can roll easily on the convex surface of the frame.
- the attaching members 12 support, in turn, a reclining board 13 on which the user rests the main portion of his/her body when using the present invention.
- rotation limitation means can be utilized that restrict the movement of the reclining board at some point of rotation.
- the only rotational limitation means is at the full reclining position of the board 13 given that one of the primary functions of the present invention is to suspend an individual substantially vertically with their head in a downward position and their feet in an upward position.
- the rotation limitation means is capable of stopping rotation of the reclining board when the board is substantially horizontal to the ground upon which the device rests, thus facilitating massage therapy on a more or less conventional flat table surface.
- the upper incline brace 50 itself may be tubular in construction with bores 58 spaced along the length of the upper recline brace, wherein the bores operate in cooperation with bore 62 of leg 2a and adjustment pin 66 for fixedly securing the upper recline brace 50 to the leg 2a.
- the upper recline brace 50 is also pivotally attached to the frame 5 by pivot assembly 70, wherein the upper recline brace, when not secured to the leg 2 by the adjustment pin 66, can pivot about the pivot assembly 70 along the directions of the arcuate double headed arrow 74.
- the upper recline brace 50 can be retracted parallel to the frame 5 and attached to flange 78 by, for example, adjustment pin 66 being received through bore 80 and one of the bores 58.
- the flange 78 is secured to the frame 5 and that the flange in the orientation of Fig. 1 may have a cross section parallel to horizontal axis 26 that is in the shape of a downward opening "U" with a bore 80 penetrating each of the vertical sides of the flange.
- upper recline brace 50 when the upper recline brace 50 is rotated into the center slot between the flange 78 sides, the brace can be secured by the adjustment pin 66, thereby allowing the engagement between the locking pins 16 and the notched locking discs 15 to substantially govern the inclination of the reclining board 13.
- upper recline brace 50, pivot assembly 70, and flange 78 as well as the associated bores and pin 66 may be duplicated on the mirror image portions of frame 5 and leg 2b that are on the backside of the present invention as displayed in Fig. 1.
- similar braces as one skilled in the art will appreciate, may be provided between frame 5 and legs la and/or lb of stand portion 1.
- the reclining board 13 may be provided with an additional layer 170 that can be provided with therapeutic devices such as various vibrators, motors and/or heating or cooling elements for further assisting in user relaxation and therapeutic massage.
- therapeutic devices such as various vibrators, motors and/or heating or cooling elements for further assisting in user relaxation and therapeutic massage.
- the present invention also has a control unit 174 that controls such therapeutic devices.
- the control unit 174 is attached to the layer 170 by pivot arm 178 that pivots about attachment point 180 in the directions of arcuate double headed arrow 184. Accordingly, the control unit may be accessed whether the user is lying on his/her back or stomach.
