8591445, Nov 26, 2013
Filed:
Apr 4, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/696286
Inventors:
Richard J. Serola - Roscoe IL, US
International Classification:
A61F 5/00
US Classification:
602 19, 602 5
Abstract:
A sacroiliac belt with a non-elastic inner belt to wrap around the user's hips and an elastic outer belt to wrap from the back to opposite sides of the inner belt. Non-cinchable hook and loop fastener construction is used to secure the inner and outer belts in position. The inner belt includes an inside elastomeric foam layer with open-cell frictional gripping surface, a non-elastic outside layer of loop material, and a hook tab for engaging the loop material to close the belt. The inner belt may be established with a non-elastic composite foam-fabric structure comprising a bi-laminate of the foam and elastic fabric, and a strip of loop material secured lengthwise onto the fabric side of the bi-laminate. The outer belt includes an elastic strip and hook tabs for connecting to the strip of loop material. The non-elastic composite foam-fabric may be used in other orthopedic braces and supports.

Device And Method For Reducing Lumbar Lordosis While Supine And Supporting The Lumbar Curve When Seated

View page
US Patent:
52017613, Apr 13, 1993
Filed:
Nov 12, 1991
Appl. No.:
7/790518
Inventors:
Richard J. Serola - Honolulu HI
International Classification:
A61G 1500
A61F 500
US Classification:
606240
Abstract:
A dual purpose pillow for reversing the lordotic curve of a patient by acting on the base of the spine and comprises two wedges that act complimentary to each other. A larger wedge of the pillow is higher at the foot end and lower at the head end of the patient and acts to place the pelvis into posterior tilt. The sacrum is carried along with the pelvis into posterior pelvic tilt. The smaller wedge of the pillow is also higher at the foot end and lower at the head end of the patient and further increases the posterior tilt of the sacrum, thus acting to reduce the disc wedge angle above the sacrum. This pillow may be used to support the lumbar spine and musculature while the patient is sitting.
