A back support device for supporting a wearer's back during various activities is described. The back support device includes an inner belt, and outer substantially inelastic belt, and a semi-rigid abdominal plate positioned beneath the outer substantially inelastic belt. The back support device is designed to be positioned circumferentially about a wearer's waist or lower torso region, such that the abdominal plate overlies an abdominal region of the wearer, with the substantially inelastic belt securing the abdominal plate firmly in position thereon, in order to increase the intraabdominal pressure and thereby support the wearer's lower spine. The inner belt is desirably substantially elastic in order that it closely conforms to the wearer's body and assists in increasing the intraabdominal pressure. The back support device also desirably includes a lumbosacral pad, which can be positioned within a pocket located on a rear portion of the back support device, to thereby correspond with the wearer's lower spinal region and to provide effective contact between the inelastic belt of the device and the spine due to the spine's natural curvature in the lumbar region.
Support dorsal pour soutenir le dos de la personne qui le porte durant diverses activités. Le support dorsal inclut une ceinture interne et une ceinture externe, essentiellement non élastique, et une plaque abdominale semi-rigide placée en-dessous de la ceinture externe non élastique. Le support dorsal a été conçu pour être porté autour de la taille ou du bas du torse, de manière que la plaque abdominale se trouve au-dessus de la région abdominale et que la ceinture essentiellement non élastique retienne la plaque abdominale fermement en position au-dessus de l'abdomen, afin d'accroître la pression intra-abdominale et ainsi de soutenir le bas de la colonne vertébrale. La ceinture interne est essentiellement élastique afin de se conformer étroitement au corps et contribue à accroître la pression intra-abdominale. Le support dorsal comporte également un coussin lombo-sacré, qui peut être placé dans une poche située à la partie arrière du support dorsal, de manière à épouser la forme de la région lombaire et pour fournir un contact efficace entre la ceinture non élastique du support et la colonne vertébrale en raison de la courbure naturelle de la colonne vertébrale dans la région lombaire.
