Benefits of technology

The invention is a tape product that can be easily peeled off from the skin without causing damage to the skin. This is achieved by using a special adhesive that allows for strong adhesion to the skin but also allows for easy peeling off of the tape. The tape can be used to protect the skin and prevent cuts and wounds during peeling off.

Problems solved by technology

However, for these methods, the adhesion to the skin decreases even when the adhesive tape for skin is not peeled off.
Therefore, fixation for things such as medical tubes will be insufficient.
Moreover, leaving the adhesive layer for a long time on the skin of a patient susceptible to irritation is not possible.
In the end, there is a risk of skin damage.
However, with such a remover method, the solvent remains on the skin after treatment.
Then, if the adhesive tape is refixed in that state, there is a problem that the adhesive strength of the refixed adhesive tape fails.
Furthermore, with the waterproof tape, the solvent does not get into the tape member, and there is a problem which takes time and effort in order to peel off the tape in that it is necessary to peel off the member a little and squeeze the solvent while directly impregnating it between the adhesive layer and the skin.
Furthermore, if conventional adhesive tapes are used to secure medical devices to the skin, sometimes the adhesive surface with the skin becomes large.
Then, when peeling off such an adhesive tape, a large force was required.
As a result, for work that requires precision and accuracy, peeling off the adhesive tape at the same time becomes difficult.
Then, this causes the following problems.

first embodiment

1. First Embodiment

[0046]A first embodiment of a tape product 100 according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4. The tape product 100 according to the present invention can be used, for example, as a medical tape attached to the skin of a patient.

[0047]As shown in FIG. 1, the tape Product 100 comprises a tape member 10 and a mesh member 20. The tape member 10 is a member having an adhesive surface on at least one side. The mesh member 20 is a mesh-like member having a plurality of openings 21. The mesh member 20 is attached to the adhesive surface of the tape member 10 and can be peeled off from the tape member 10 by hand. Preferably, the mesh member 20 is attached over substantially the entire adhesive surface of the tape member 10. As examples, the area in which the mesh member 20 is attached to the tape member 10 is preferably 80˜100% or 90˜100% of the area of the adhesive surface of the tape member 10, and also, the mesh member 20 may have a...

second embodiment

2. Second Embodiment

[0062]Subsequently, a second embodiment of the tape product 100 according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 5 and 6. For the embodiment described below, descriptions of the same configurations as those of the first embodiment described above will be omitted, and descriptions will focus on those configurations different from the first embodiment.

[0063]As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the tape product 100 according to the second embodiment further includes a release layer 30 between the tape member 10 and the mesh member 20. The release layer 30 is provided for the purpose of facilitating peeling of the tape member 10 from the mesh member 20. Because the tape product 100 of the present invention is assumed to be used as a medical tape as one example, the release layer 30 is preferably made of, for example, a powder such as baby powder, which is used in medical applications. However, the release layer 30 is not limited to this, and may be ...

fourth embodiment

4. Fourth Embodiment

[0068]Next, FIG. 8 shows a fourth embodiment of the tape product 100 according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 8, in the fourth embodiment, the mesh member 20 has an extended portion 22 extending from the edge of the tape member 10. That is, while the mesh member 20 is preferably provided so as to basically cover the overall adhesive surface of the tape member 10, in the fourth embodiment, the mesh member 20 has an extended portion 22 protruding beyond the adhesive surface of the tape Member 10. The extended portion 22 of the mesh member 20 may extend at least partially from the edge of the tape member 10, but for example, may also extend from the entire circumference of the edge of the tape member 10. The extended length of the extended portion 22 is preferably 1 mm or more, and may be, as examples, 1˜20 mm or 2˜15 mm.

[0069]As shown in FIG. 8, if the mesh member 20 extends at least partially from the tape member 10, the tape member 10 can be easily pe...

Abstract

The tape product prevents wounds on skin when peeling off a tape member from occurring. The tape product 100 includes a tape member 10 having an adhesive surface, and a mesh member 20 releasably provided on the adhesive surface of the tape member 10. When the tape product 100 is applied to skin, the adhesive surface of the tape member 10 adheres to the skin through the openings 21 of the mesh member 20.

Description

[0001]This application is a National Stage entry of International Application No.: PCT / JP2017 / 041439, filed Nov. 17, 2017, which claims priority to Japanese. Patent Application No. 2016-227549, filed Nov. 24, 2016. The disclosures of the priority applications are hereby incorporated in their entirety by reference.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]The present invention relates to a tape product such as those used for medical purposes.Background Art[0003]In recent years, in the medical field, the condition of the skin is being managed more strictly than before, and there. has been a demand to avoid skin wounds. For example, there is a need to prevent pressure tears that occur on pressed skin and skin tears that occur in patients with weak skin such as the elderly and infants.[0004]First, medical equipment compression wounds (medical device related pressure ulcers) are a problem. With respect to this, according to the Japanese Society of Pressure Ulcers, in addition to commonly used medical devices...
