Title:
前かがみ支持具
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2006525085
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a device which supports a user's spine while the user is in a forward bent position. The device includes a padded rest on which the user can lean while working in a forward bent position, and support structure enabling at least three of lateral adjustment of the rest along the projected perimeter of the work area, adjustment of the rest across the projected perimeter, height adjustment of the rest, and angular orientation of the rest. Since the user leans against the rest, the stresses otherwise normally experienced in the lower, middle and upper back are substantially attenuated. Attenuating such stress attenuates the pain experienced by the user as well as potentially extending his or her productive life.
