1. A toe mobilizer is technically characterized by comprising: any relevant design and product featuring toe movement by mechanical, magnetic, electronic, etc. technical means (or technologies not known now but coming out in the future) to achieve improved toe blood circulation and movement functions.

Technical Field

Medical treatment, health care and physical therapy.

Background

The human toes should be counted as less active parts, even for people who often walk long distances and run. The toe activity referred to herein is the movement of five toes in a tilting upward, hooking downward and opening left and right direction. For relatively aggressive walking and running, the toes still have some motion. However, for most people, the movement of the toes is still relatively small, even substantially motionless.

Also, modern physiotherapy is less, if not substantially, involved in toe movement. In addition, some of the more widely-recommended massages also do not involve substantial movement of the toes, although massaging the ball of the foot, rubbing the surface of the foot, etc. Of course, in some sporting activities and warm-up sports for competitions, there are individual actions that involve toe activity. The hot water soaking feet can increase blood circulation, but not only point to toes but also all feet.

Toe activity of ballet actors as a professional is not in the background discussion, nor is toe activity of pedicure shops.

In short, a person rarely moves the ten toes of both feet, or rarely moves the ten toes of both feet systemically. Thus, the blood circulation of the toes is naturally slow, which is one reason why the toes are relatively vulnerable to frostbite. Especially, diabetic patients and the elderly have slow blood circulation and are easy to suffer from toe necrosis.

Disclosure of Invention

The invention provides a toe activity device which is used for passively moving toes to move in all directions so as to increase the blood circulation of the toes.

The problems to be solved are as follows: the lack of movement of the toes, particularly the system, results in a slowing of blood circulation, which affects the function and physical activity of the toes.

The technical scheme is as follows: the toes are moved in a mechanical mode, each toe is driven to do upward tilting, downward hooking and leftward and rightward opening movement, and blood circulation and functional movement of the toes are increased.

Has the advantages that: the circulation of blood in toes is increased, the moving function of toes is maintained, the stiffness of toes is reduced, the occurrence of necrosis is prevented, and the health of a body is promoted.

Compared with the prior art: there are no reports yet, and relevant patents are also searched. There are some patents claiming toe-moving functionality, but quite different from the design of the present invention, as follows.

Detailed Description

Toe movement can be achieved in different ways. For example, five robot-like devices are hung on the crossbars to grasp the five toes, respectively; the transverse frame moves left and right through the gear to drive the toes to move to open left and right; the upright post is arranged on a device capable of doing arc motion, and the front and back swing of the upright post drives the toes to do upward tilting and downward hooking motion. The arc-shaped motion device and the gear are driven to roll by the micromotor and the transmission device, and the operation process is regulated and controlled by the controller.

Since the object of the invention is to move the toes, it is more important that the toes move separately, rather than just in unison, five toes per foot. Thus, each toe should have a robot-like device that controls its motion, grabbing one toe. The five toe grabbing mechanical arms can move simultaneously or move one by one.
