FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medical equipment, namely to a device for maintaining correct posture and respiratory rhythm. In the elastic housing of the device there is an electric pulse generator, a power supply element and a control unit. On the back surface of the housing there are electric contacts which are evenly distributed from the centre to the edges of the housing. Control unit is programmable and equipped with a touch screen, which is placed on the front side of the housing. Device also has a sound recording/reproduction unit with possibility of communication with an external reproduction element, a vibration mechanism, sensors of steps, an angle of inclination, tension and a belt. Belt is made with possibility of length adjustment and is attached to the housing through a tension sensor. Outputs of the sensors of inclination angle, steps and tension are connected to inputs of the control unit. Outputs of the control unit are connected to the control inputs of the pulse distribution unit, the sound recording/reproduction unit and the vibration mechanism. Output of the pulse distribution unit is connected to electrical contacts. Control unit is configured to output pulses for activation of the vibration mechanism with an initial interval varying after a given number of pulses, as well as for activation with holding of the vibration mechanism for a continuous signal by the signal of the inclination angle sensor, if the user begins to stoop. Control unit is configured to change frequency of output of pulses for activation of vibration mechanism depending on frequency of steps on signal of step sensor.
EFFECT: obtaining a synergetic effect as a result of integration of factors controlling the effect on the body of the user of the correct posture and respiratory rhythm.
