Cervical orthesis with adjustable cervico-occipital support

摘要

According to the invention, the cervico-occipital support plate (5) and the posterior half collar (4) are each made of a semirigid and elastically deformable material, are arranged so that the support plate (5) is inside the concavity formed by the half collar (4) and are joined to one another, - on the one hand, by two fixed connection means (8) arranged laterally on either side of the vertical median plane of this posterior part, - and, on the other hand, by an adjustable connection means (9) arranged in the aforementioned vertical median plane and composed of a threaded rod (10), extending backwards, substantially horizontally and halfway up the support plate (5) to which it is attached, and a nut (12) which, mounted so as to rotate freely but locked in translation in a lug projecting upwards from the lower half collar, constitutes an adjustment means.
