[0007] With the storage part applied to the affected part, the first band part is wound around the storage part and the affected part such that the second surface layer of the first band part faces the storage part side, and the second surface layer of the first band part is superposed on the first surface layer of the first band part at an arbitrary position, whereby the first surface layer of the first band part and the second surface layer of the first band part may be detachably engaged. Alternatively, with the storage part applied to the affected part, the first band part is wound around the storage part and the affected part such that the first surface layer of the first band part faces the storage part side, and the first surface layer of the first band part is superposed on the second surface layer of the first band part at an arbitrary position, whereby the first surface layer of the first band part and the second surface layer of the first band part may be detachably engaged.

The second outer layer can be configured to form at least a part of the outer layer on the other side in the first direction of the storage part and be provided on the winding path of the first band part in the storage part.

The second band part may extend in the other direction in the second direction from the storage part. The second band part may also have a plurality of layers, similar to the first band part.
[0011] With the storage part applied to the affected part, the first band part and the second band part intersect at an arbitrary position, and the second surface layer of the first band part and the first surface layer of the second band part can be detachably engaged by overlapping at the intersection on the first surface layer of the second band part. Or, with the storage part applied to the affected part, the first band part and the second band part intersect at an arbitrary position, and the first surface layer of the first band part and the second surface layer of the second band part can be detachably engaged by overlapping at the intersection on the second surface layer of the second band part.
[0012] A body-worn device according to another aspect of the present invention includes a flexible elongated band. The band has a plurality of layers laminated in a first direction which is the thickness direction of the band. The plurality of layers include a first surface layer and a second surface layer.

Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention
[0019] Hereinafter, a plurality of embodiments including Examples 1 to 4 of the present invention and their design modification examples will be described. It should be noted that each component of the embodiments and design modification examples described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other. Also, it should be noted that the materials, shapes, dimensions, numbers, arrangements, etc. of each component constituting each aspect of the embodiments and design modification examples described below are merely examples, and design changes can be arbitrarily made as long as the same functions can be realized.
Examples
[0020] Hereinafter, a body-worn device S1 according to a plurality of embodiments including Example 1 of the present invention and its design modification examples will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4. FIGS. 1 to 4 show the body-worn device S1 of Example 1. The Y-Y' direction (second direction) shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is the longitudinal direction of the body-worn device S1. The X-X' direction (third direction) shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 3 is substantially orthogonal to the Y-Y' direction. The Z-Z' direction (first direction) shown in FIG. 3 is substantially orthogonal to the Y-Y' direction and the X-X' direction.
[0021] The body-worn device S1 is for winding and fixing the heat source part HS around the affected part A of the wearer. As the heat source part HS, for example, there are a cold pack, a coolant, a cooling device equipped with a Peltier element, etc., a disposable or rechargeable kairo, a charcoal brazier (ankha) with an electric, chemical heat generation type or charcoal, etc., a rechargeable or hot water supply type yutanpo, or natural substances that can store heat by heating (for example, stones or beans (for example, soybeans, azuki beans, etc.)), etc., but it is not limited to these, and anything that can cool or heat the affected part A is acceptable. Further, the affected part A is, for example, the knee (see FIG. 4), ankle, leg, foot, shoulder, arm, hand, wrist, head, neck, waist, buttocks, etc., but it is not limited to these, and it can be any part of the body.
[0022] The body-worn device S1 includes a storage part 100 that can store the heat source part HS and can abut against the affected part A, and a long first band part 200a. Note that the Y-Y' direction also corresponds to the longitudinal direction of the first band part 200a, the X-X' direction corresponds to the short side direction of the first band part 200a, and the Z-Z' direction (the first direction) corresponds to the thickness direction of the first band part 200a.
[0023] An extension band part may be integrally connected to one end part on the Y-direction side of the first band part 200a. The extension band part may be attached to the outer surface on the Z-direction side or Z'-direction side of the storage part 100, or may be attached to the inner surface of the storage part 100. In this case, the first band part 200a and the extension band part form a long band extending in the Y-Y' direction. Thus, the extension band part is a part attached to the outer surface or the inner surface of the storage part 100. When the extension band part is not provided, one end part of the first band part 200a may be attached to the end on the Y'-direction side of the storage part 100. In any case, the first band part 200a extends in the Y' direction so as to be separated from the storage part 100. The first band part 200a has flexibility such that it can be wound around the storage part 100 and the affected part A when the storage part 100 is applied to the affected part A.
[0024] The dimension of the first band portion 200a in the Y-Y' direction only needs to be larger than the length dimension of the outer periphery of the storage portion 100 and the affected part A in the state where the storage portion 100 is applied to the affected part A. The dimension of the first band portion 200a in the Y-Y' direction may be a dimension that is 2 to 5 times the length dimension of the outer periphery of the storage portion 100 and the affected part A in the state where the storage portion 100 is applied to the affected part A, but it may also be a dimension of 6 times or more. In other words, the first band portion 200a may be configured to be able to be wound around the storage portion 100 and the affected part A about 2 to 5 times in the state where the storage portion 100 is applied to the affected part A, but it may also be configured to be able to be wound around the storage portion 100 and the affected part A more than 6 times. The dimension of the first band portion 200a in the X-X' direction may be smaller than the dimension of the storage portion 100 in the X-X' direction (see FIGS. 1 and 2), may be the same (not shown), or may be larger (not shown).
[0025] The first band portion 200a further has any one of the following configurations (1) to (3).
[0026] (1) The first band portion 200a has a plurality of layers laminated in the Z-Z' direction. The plurality of layers have a first surface layer 210a and a second surface layer 220a. The first surface layer 210a is the layer located on the most Z-direction side among the plurality of layers, and the second surface layer 220a is the layer located on the most Z'-direction side among the plurality of layers.
[0027] The first surface layer 210a is a hook layer having flexibility such that the first band portion 200a can be wound as described above, and has a first surface 211a on the Z-direction side and a large number of hooks 212a (see FIG. 3). The large number of hooks 212a are fibers that have fluffed up from the first surface 211a to the Z-direction side, and the tip portions are in the shape of hooks.
[0028] The first surface layer 210a may further have a number of elastic fibers 213a. A number of hooks 212a are dispersedly arranged so as to be hidden in the elastic fibers 213a. The distance between two adjacent hooks 212a among the number of hooks 212a may be substantially the same or may be different. Note that the elastic fibers 213a can be omitted.
[0029] The first surface layer 210a may be, for example, a fabric (e.g., a flannel layer) made of polyester, acrylic, or nylon, and may be composed of filament yarns of 100 to 150 D / 36 to 48 F. In this case, the weight per square meter of the first surface layer 210a can be 180 to 260 g, the length of each hook 212a is 2.3 to 2.7 mm, the linear density of each hook 212a on the first surface 211a is 3.125 to 3.2 D, and its diameter can be about 17.8 μm. The density of the hooks 212a per square inch on the first surface 211a can be 96768 to 96814.
[0030] The second surface layer 220a is an engagement layer having flexibility such that the first band portion 200a can be wound as described above, and has a second surface 221a on the Z' direction side and a number of piles 222a (see FIG. 3). The number of piles 222a form loop shapes protruding from the second surface 221a toward the Z' direction side.
[0031] The second surface layer 220a may be, for example, a pile fabric made of polyester, and may be composed of yarns made of sea-island fibers (fibers spun by mixing polyester and polyethylene) of 105 D / 48 F. In this case, the weight per square meter of the second surface layer 220a is 180 to 260 g, the loop length of each pile 222a is 2.5 to 2.9 mm, the linear density of each pile 222a on the second surface 221a is 0.097 to 0.1 D, and its diameter is about 3.1 μm. The density of the piles 222a per square inch on the second surface 221a can be 1382400 to 1382600. Note that the second surface layer 220a may be an acrylic or nylon pile fabric.
[0032] The plurality of layers may further have at least one intermediate layer 230a. The at least one intermediate layer 230a is one or more and is disposed between the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a. The plurality of intermediate layers 230a are laminated in the Z-Z' direction.
[0033] The at least one intermediate layer 230a has at least one of, for example, a tensile deformation layer 231a, a sea-island fiber layer 232a, a polyamide fiber layer 233a, a polyacrylonitrile fiber layer 234a, a polyester fiber layer 235a, and an adhesive layer (not shown).
[0034] The tensile deformation layer 231a, the sea-island fiber layer 232a, the polyamide fiber layer 233a, the polyacrylonitrile fiber layer 234a, and the polyester fiber layer 235a have flexibility such that the first band portion 200a can be wound as described above. The tensile deformation layer 231a is configured to be stretchable and deformable at least in the Y-Y' direction. The tensile deformation layer 231a may also be configured to be stretchable and deformable in the X-X' direction. The sea-island fiber layer 232a has high hygroscopicity. The polyamide fiber layer 233a has higher wear resistance than all other fibers. A styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) component may be added to the polyamide fiber layer 233a, but is not limited thereto. By adding the SBR component, the polyamide fiber layer 233a can improve heat retention and water resistance. The polyacrylonitrile fiber layer 234a has good elasticity, high moisture retention, and high light resistance. The polyester fiber layer 235a has high wrinkle resistance, shape retention, high strength, and high elastic recovery ability.
[0035] The following layers are one or more, each of which adheres two adjacent layers in the Z-Z' direction among the plurality of layers. For example, when at least one intermediate layer 230a is an adhesive layer, the adhesive layer adheres the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a. When there are a plurality of at least one intermediate layer 230a and at least one of them is an adhesive layer, at least one adhesive layer includes the first surface layer 210a adjacent in the Z-Z' direction and another intermediate layer, the second surface layer 220a adjacent in the Z-Z' direction and another intermediate layer, and at least one set of layers between at least two other adjacent intermediate layers 230a in the Z-Z' direction.
[0036] In FIG. 3, the surface on the Z' side of the first surface layer 210a and the surface on the Z side of the tensile deformation layer 231a are adhered by an adhesive layer, the surface on the Z' side of the tensile deformation layer 231a and the surface on the Z side of the polyacrylonitrile fiber layer 234a are adhered by an adhesive layer, the surface on the Z' side of the polyacrylonitrile fiber layer 234a and the surface on the Z side of the sea-island fiber layer 232a are adhered by an adhesive layer, the surface on the Z' side of the sea-island fiber layer 232a and the surface on the Z side of the polyester fiber layer 235a are adhered by an adhesive layer, the surface on the Z' side of the polyester fiber layer 235a and the surface on the Z side of the polyamide fiber layer 233a are adhered by an adhesive layer, and the surface on the Z' side of the polyamide fiber layer 233a and the surface on the Z side of the second surface layer 220a are adhered by an adhesive layer. In this way, by using the polyacrylonitrile fiber layer 234a, the sea-island fiber layer 232a, the polyester fiber layer 235a, and the polyamide fiber layer 233a in combination, it becomes easier for the adhesive layer to adhere and fix, and the first band portion 200a can be flexibly deformed into various shapes.
[0037] Note that the polyacrylonitrile fiber layer 234a and the polyester fiber layer 235a can be omitted. In this case, the surface on the Z' side of the tensile deformation layer 231a and the surface on the Z side of the sea-island fiber layer 232a may be adhered by an adhesive layer, and the surface on the Z' side of the sea-island fiber layer 232a and the surface on the Z side of the polyamide fiber layer 233a may be adhered by an adhesive layer.
[0038] Note that two adjacent layers in the Z-Z' direction among the plurality of layers may be fixed by another means such as a thread. When all of the two adjacent layers in the Z-Z' direction among the plurality of layers are fixed by another means such as a thread, the adhesive layer is omitted. At least one intermediate layer 230a can be omitted. In this case, the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a may be fixed with a thread or the like.
[0039] With the storage part 100 with the heat source part HS applied to the affected part A, the first band part 200a is wound around the storage part 100 and the affected part A so that the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a is on the side of the storage part 100 with respect to the first surface layer 210a (hereinafter, this is referred to as "the first winding"). The second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a is superposed on the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a at an arbitrary position. Thereby, a large number of hooks 212a on the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a catch (engage detachably) on a large number of piles 222a on the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a. In this way, the state where the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a is superposed on the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a is maintained.
[0040] In the superposed state like this, when the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a is separated from the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a, the first winding is released. At this time, a large number of hooks 212a on the first surface layer 210a are separated from a large number of piles 222a on the second surface layer 220a, and the catching on a large number of piles 222a on the second surface layer 220a is released.
[0041] With the storage unit 100 containing the heat source unit HS applied to the affected part A, the first band part 200a is wound around the storage unit 100 and the affected part A (hereinafter referred to as "the second winding") such that the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a is on the side of the storage unit 100 with respect to the second surface layer 220a, and the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a is overlapped with the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a at an arbitrary position. Thereby, a large number of hooks 212a on the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a are caught (detachably engaged) by a large number of piles 222a on the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a. In this way, the state where the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a is overlapped on the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a is maintained.
[0042] In the state of being overlapped in this way, when the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a is separated from the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a, the second winding is released. At this time, a large number of hooks 212a on the first surface layer 210a are separated from a large number of piles 222a on the second surface layer 220a, and the catching on a large number of piles 222a on the second surface layer 220a is released.
[0043] With the end portion on the Y' - direction side of the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a in contact with the affected part A, the first band part 200a is wound around the affected part A (hereinafter referred to as "the third winding"), the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a is overlapped with the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a at an arbitrary position, and the storage unit 100 containing the heat source unit HS indirectly contacts the affected part A via the first band part 200a. At this time, similar to the first winding, a large number of hooks 212a on the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a are caught (detachably engaged) by a large number of piles 222a on the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a. Also, the third winding is released in the same way as the first winding.
[0044] With the end portion on the Y'-direction side of the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a being brought into contact with the affected area A, the first band portion 200a is wound around the affected area A (hereinafter, this is referred to as "the fourth winding"). The first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a is overlapped at an arbitrary position on the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a, and the storage portion 100 containing the heat source portion HS indirectly contacts the affected area A via the band 200. At this time, similar to the second winding, a large number of hooks 212a on the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a are caught (detachably engaged) by a large number of piles 222a on the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a. Also, the fourth winding is released in the same manner as the second winding.
[0045] In addition, when a large number of elastic fibers 213a are provided on the first surface layer 210a, by the first, second, third, or fourth winding, a large number of elastic fibers 213a on the first surface layer 210a are pressed against the second surface layer 220a, and the tip portions of a large number of hooks 212a on the first surface layer 210a are exposed from a large number of elastic fibers 213a on the first surface layer 210a and are caught (detachably engaged) by a large number of piles 222a on the second surface layer 220a. When the first, second, third, or fourth winding is released, the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a are separated from each other, whereby the catching between a large number of hooks 212a on the first surface layer 210a and a large number of piles 222a on the second surface layer 220a is released, and a large number of elastic fibers 213a on the first surface layer 210a are restored and a large number of hooks 212a on the first surface layer 210a are hidden by a large number of elastic fibers 213a on the first surface layer 210a.
[0046] (2) The first band portion 200a has the same configuration as the first band portion 200a in (1) above, except that the configuration of its second surface layer 220a is different from the configuration of the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a in (1) above. Hereinafter, only the differences will be described, and duplicate descriptions will be omitted.
[0047] The second surface layer 220a has a number of engaging fibers (not shown) instead of a number of piles 222a. The number of engaging fibers may be fibers that are formed by cutting the tips (ends in the Z' direction) of the number of piles 222a and raising them, or fibers that extend from the second surface 221a in the Z' direction side, as long as they can be entangled with or frictionally engaged with the number of hooks 212a of the first surface layer 210a.
[0048] During the first or third winding, the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a is superposed on the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a at an arbitrary position, and a number of hooks 212a of the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a are entangled with or frictionally engaged with (detachably engaged with) a number of engaging fibers of the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a. In this way, the state in which the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a is superposed on the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a is maintained.
[0049] When the first or third winding is released, the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a is separated from the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a, so that a number of hooks 212a of the first surface layer 210a are separated from a number of engaging fibers of the second surface layer 220a, and the entanglement or frictional engagement with the number of engaging fibers of the second surface layer 220a is released.
[0050] During the second or fourth winding, the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a is superposed on the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a at an arbitrary position, and a number of hooks 212a of the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a are entangled with or frictionally engaged with (detachably engaged with) a number of engaging fibers of the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a. In this way, the state in which the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a is superposed on the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a is maintained.
[0051] When the second or fourth winding is released, the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a is separated from the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a. As a result, a large number of hooks 212a on the first surface layer 210a are disengaged from a large number of engaging fibers on the second surface layer 220a, and the entanglement or frictional engagement with the large number of engaging fibers on the second surface layer 220a is released.
[0052] In addition, when a large number of elastic fibers 213a are provided on the first surface layer 210a, by the first, second, third, or fourth winding, a large number of elastic fibers 213a on the first surface layer 210a are pressed against the second surface layer 220a, and the tip portions of a large number of hooks 212a on the first surface layer 210a are exposed from a large number of elastic fibers 213a on the first surface layer 210a and are entangled with or frictionally engaged with (detachably engaged with) a large number of engaging fibers on the second surface layer 220a. When the first, second, third, or fourth winding is released, the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a are separated from each other, so that the entanglement or frictional engagement between a large number of hooks 212a on the first surface layer 210a and a large number of engaging fibers on the second surface layer 220a is released, and a large number of elastic fibers 213a on the first surface layer 210a are restored and a large number of hooks 212a on the first surface layer 210a are hidden by a large number of elastic fibers 213a on the first surface layer 210a.
[0053] (3) The first band portion 200a has the same configuration as the first band portion 200a in (1) above, except that the configurations of the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a thereof are different from the configurations of the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a in (1) above. Hereinafter, only the differences will be described, and repeated descriptions will be omitted.
[0054] The first surface layer 210a is a non-woven fabric or the like with the first surface 211a being rough. The second surface layer 220a is a non-woven fabric or the like with the second surface 221a being rough. When winding for the first or third time, the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a is overlapped at an arbitrary position on the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a, and the first surface 211a of the first surface layer 210a and the second surface 221a of the second surface layer 220a are frictionally engaged. Or, when winding for the second or fourth time, the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a is overlapped at an arbitrary position on the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a, and the first surface 211a of the first surface layer 210a and the second surface 221a of the second surface layer 220a are frictionally engaged. When unwinding the first, second, third, or fourth winding, the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a are separated, whereby the frictional engagement between the first surface 211a of the first surface layer 210a and the second surface 221a of the second surface layer 220a is released.
[0055] Note that for the first to fourth windings of the above-described first band portion 200a, at least one winding is sufficient.
[0056] The storage portion 100 is configured to be able to freely store and take out the heat source portion HS and to be able to abut against the affected part A. The dimension of the storage portion 100 in the Y - Y' direction may be larger than, substantially the same as, or slightly smaller than the dimension of the heat source portion HS in the Y - Y' direction. The dimension of the storage portion 100 in the X - X' direction may be larger than, substantially the same as, or slightly smaller than the dimension of the heat source portion HS in the X - X' direction. The dimension of the storage portion 100 in the Z - Z' direction may be larger than, substantially the same as, or slightly smaller than the dimension of the heat source portion HS in the Z - Z' direction.

When the opening 101 is a slit opening extending in the Y - Y' direction or X - X' direction, one edge part (the first edge part) may overlap the other edge part (the second edge part) (see FIG. 1), but it is not limited thereto, and one edge part (the first edge part) and the other edge part (the second edge part) may be arranged on both sides of the slit (not shown).

[0061] (d) The storage part 100 is a box body that can freely accommodate and remove the heat source part HS, rather than a bag body. Except for being different from the storage part 100 in the above (b), it has the same configuration and has an opening 101, an edge part 102 of the opening 101, and a lid (not shown). The opening 101 and the lid may be located on the winding path of the first, second, third, or fourth winding of the first band part 200a.
[0062] The storage part 100 may further have a first outer layer 110 and / or a second outer layer 120.
[0063] The first outer layer 110 has the same configuration as the first surface layer 210a in any of the above-described modes of the first band part 200a. The first outer layer 110 only needs to form at least a part of the outer layer on the Z-direction side of the storage part 100 and be provided in the storage part 100 so as to be located on the winding path of the first or third winding of the first band part 200a in the storage part 100.

[0065] When the storage part 100 has any of the configurations in the above (a) to (d) and the opening 101 and the edge part 102 of the storage part 100 are located on the winding path of the first or third winding of the first band part 200a in the storage part 100, the first outer layer 110 may be provided on the edge part 102.

[0068] The first outer layer 110 may be provided as the entire outer layer on the Z - direction side of the storage unit 100, or may be provided as all the surface layers of the storage unit 100.
[0069] Regardless of which of the above - described configurations the first outer layer 110 has, by the first or third winding, the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a is superposed at an arbitrary position on the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a and on the first outer layer 110 of the storage unit 100.

[0079] The second outer layer 120 may be provided as the entire outer layer on the Z'-direction side of the storage part 100, or may be provided as all the surface layers of the storage part 100.
[0080] Even when the second outer layer 120 has any of the above configurations, by the second or fourth winding, the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a is superposed at an arbitrary position on the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a and on the second outer layer 120 of the storage part 100.

When the second or fourth winding is released, the first surface layer 210a separates from the second surface layer 220a and the second outer layer 120, and the frictional engagement with the second surface layer 220a and the second outer layer 120 is released.

In this case, it has an outer surface that does not engage with the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a. Also, the storage portion 100 may have a configuration in which the first outer layer 110 and / or the second outer layer 120 are provided while the inner layer and at least one intermediate layer are not provided, or a configuration in which the first outer layer 110 and / or the second outer layer 120 and the inner layer are provided while at least one intermediate layer is not provided.
[0088] In the case of the body-worn device S1 as described above, the following technical features and effects are achieved.
[0089] When the first or third winding is performed, the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a is superposed on the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a at an arbitrary position, or when the second or fourth winding is performed, the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a is superposed on the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a at an arbitrary position. In any of the above-described ways, the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a and the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a are detachably engaged with each other at an arbitrary position. In this way, the body-worn device S1 can fix the position of the storage portion 100 including the heat source portion HS at an arbitrary position on the affected part A.
[0090] When the first outer layer 110 of the storage portion 100 is provided, by the first or third winding, the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a is superposed on the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a and on the first outer layer 110 of the storage portion 100 at an arbitrary position. In any of the above-described ways, the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a is detachably engaged not only with the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a but also with the first outer layer 110 of the storage portion 100 at an arbitrary position. Therefore, the strength of the position fixation of the body-worn device S1 is improved. Moreover, when the opening 101 is provided on the winding path of the first or third winding, by the first or third winding, in any of the above-described ways, the first band portion 200a is detachably engaged with the edge portion 102 of the opening 101 and / or the lid at an arbitrary position and covers the opening 101. Thus, the drop of the heat source portion HS from the opening 101 is suppressed.
[0091] When the second outer layer 120 of the storage part 100 is provided, by the second or fourth winding, the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a is superposed at an arbitrary position on the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a and on the second outer layer 120 of the storage part 100. As described above, the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a is detachably engaged not only with the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a but also with the second outer layer 120 of the storage part 100 at an arbitrary position. Therefore, the strength of the position fixing of the body-worn device S1 is improved. Moreover, when the opening 101 is provided on the winding path of the second or fourth winding, by the second or fourth winding, as described above, the first band part 200a is detachably engaged with the edge part 102 and / or the lid of the opening 101 at an arbitrary position and covers the opening 101. Thus, the dropping of the heat source part HS from the opening 101 is suppressed.
Embodiment
[0092] Hereinafter, the body-worn device S2 according to a plurality of embodiments including Embodiment 2 of the present invention and its design modification examples will be described with reference to FIGS. 5A and 5B. FIGS. 5A and 5B show the body-worn device S2 of Embodiment 2. FIGS. 5A and 5B show the X-X' direction and the Y-Y' direction. For the Z-Z' direction, reference is made to FIG. 3.
[0093] The body-worn device S2 has the same configuration as the body-worn device S1 except that it further includes a second band part 200b. Hereinafter, only the differences will be described in detail, and in the description of the body-worn device S2, the descriptions overlapping with the description of the body-worn device S1 will be omitted.
[0094] The second band portion 200b only needs to extend in the Y direction so as to separate from the storage portion 100. Other than this, the second band portion 200b can have the same configuration as the first band portion 200a. The plurality of layers of the second band portion 200b have a first surface layer 210b and a second surface layer 220b. The first surface layer 210b of the second band portion 200b can have the same configuration as the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a having any of the above-described configurations. The second surface layer 220b of the second band portion 200b can have the same configuration as the second surface layer 220b of the first band portion 200a having any of the above-described configurations. The first surface layer 210b of the second band portion 200b may be the surface layer on the Z'-direction side among the plurality of layers of the second band portion 200b, or the second surface layer 220b of the second band portion 200b may be the surface layer on the Z-direction side among the plurality of layers of the second band portion 200b, or vice versa. The plurality of layers of the second band portion 200b may further have at least one intermediate layer (not shown), or may not have it. At least one intermediate layer of the second band portion 200b can have the same configuration as at least one intermediate layer 230a of the first band portion 200a having any of the above-described configurations.
[0095] The first band portion 200a and the second band portion 200b may be displaced in the X-X' direction (FIGS. 5A and 5B), but are not limited thereto.
[0096] Similar to the first band portion 200a, when the second band portion 200b is wound for the first or third time, the second surface layer 220b of the second band portion 200b is superposed on the first surface layer 210b of the second band portion 200b at an arbitrary position, or when the second band portion 200b is wound for the second or fourth time, the first surface layer 210b of the second band portion 200b is superposed on the second surface layer 220b of the second band portion 200b at an arbitrary position, whereby the first surface layer 210b and the second surface layer 220b of the second band portion 200b are detachably engaged with each other at an arbitrary position. For example, the second surface layer 220b and the first surface layer 210b of the second band portion 200b, and the first surface layer 210b and the second surface layer 220b of the second band portion 200b are detachably engaged with each other at an arbitrary position in the same manner as the engagement between the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a having any one of the above-described configurations (1) to (3).
[0097] With the storage portion 100 containing the heat source portion HS in contact with the affected part A, the first band portion 200a and the second band portion 200b may cross each other at an arbitrary position, and the second surface layer 220b of the first band portion 200a may be superposed on the first surface layer 210b of the second band portion 200b at the crossing portion. By this superposition, the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a and the first surface layer 210b of the second band portion 200b are detachably engaged with each other at the crossing portion. For example, the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a and the first surface layer 210b of the second band portion 200b are detachably engaged with each other at the crossing portion in the same manner as the engagement between the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a of the first band portion 200a having any one of the above-described configurations (1) to (3).
[0098] Alternatively, with the storage unit 100 containing the heat source unit HS in contact with the affected part A, the first band part 200a and the second band part 200b may intersect at an arbitrary position, and the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a may overlap the second surface layer 220b of the second band part 200b at the intersection. Due to this overlap, the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a and the second surface layer 220b of the second band part 200b engage detachably at the intersection. For example, the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a and the second surface layer 220b of the second band part 200b engage detachably at the intersection in the same manner as the engagement between the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a having any of the above-described configurations (1) to (3).
[0099] In any of the above ways, with the storage unit 100 containing the heat source unit HS in contact with the affected part A and the first band part 200a and the second band part 200b intersecting at an arbitrary position, the portion of the first band part 200a or the second band part 200b on the free end side from the intersection may be overlapped with the storage unit 100 and may cover the opening 101 and the edge 102 of the storage unit 100, or the opening 101 and the lid of the storage unit 100.
[0100] When the storage unit 100 has the first outer layer 110, in any of the above ways, with the storage unit 100 containing the heat source unit HS in contact with the affected part A and the first band part 200a and the second band part 200b intersecting at an arbitrary position, the first band part 200a or the second band part 200b may also be overlapped with the storage unit 100 and the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a or the second surface layer 220b of the second band part 200b may engage detachably with the first outer layer 110 of the storage unit 100. For example, the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a or the second surface layer 220b of the second band part 200b may engage detachably with the first outer layer 110 of the storage unit 100 in the same manner as any of the above (a) to (w).
[0101] When the storage part 100 has the second outer layer 120, in any of the above cases, with the storage part 100 containing the heat source part HS brought into contact with the affected part A and in a state where the first band part 200a and the second band part 200b cross at an arbitrary position, the first band part 200a or the second band part 200b may also be overlapped on the storage part 100 and the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a or the first surface layer 210b of the second band part 200b may be detachably engaged with the second outer layer 120 of the storage part 100. For example, in the same manner as any of the above (e) to (k), the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a or the first surface layer 210b of the second band part 200b may be detachably engaged with the second outer layer 120 of the storage part 100.
[0102] In the case of the body-worn device S2 as described above, it exhibits the same technical features and effects as the body-worn device S1. Moreover, the body-worn device S2 can firmly fix the storage part 100 containing the heat source part HS at an arbitrary position on the affected part A by using not only the first band part 200a but also the second band part 200b.
[0103] Also, since the first band part 200a extends in the Y' direction and the second band part 200b extends in the Y direction, they are engaged by crossing the first band part 200a and the second band part 200b with the storage part 100 containing the heat source part HS applied to the affected part A. Even in this way, the storage part 100 containing the heat source part HS can be fixed in a state of being applied to the affected part A.
Example
[0104] Hereinafter, a body-worn device S3 according to a plurality of embodiments including Embodiment 3 of the present invention and its design modification examples will be described with reference to FIGS. 6A to 9B. FIGS. 6A and 6B show the body-worn device S3 of Embodiment 3, and FIGS. 7A and 7B show a first design modification example of the body-worn device S3 of Embodiment 3. FIGS. 8A and 8B show a second design modification example of the body-worn device S3 of Embodiment 3. FIGS. 9A and 9B show a third design modification example of the body-worn device S3 of Embodiment 3. The Y-Y' direction and the X-X' direction are also shown in FIGS. 6A to 9B. For the Z-Z' direction, reference is made to FIG. 3.
[0105] The body-worn device S3 includes a band 200. The band 200 has a storage portion 100' that can store the heat source portion HS and can contact the affected part A, and a plurality of layers that form the band body of the band 200. Note that the Z-Z' direction (the first direction) corresponds to the thickness direction of the band 200.
[0106] The plurality of layers of the band 200 have a first surface layer 210 and a second surface layer 220. The first surface layer 210 of the band 200 can have the same configuration as the first surface layer 210a of the first band portion 200a having any of the above-described configurations. The second surface layer 220 of the band 200 can have the same configuration as the second surface layer 220b of the first band portion 200a in any of the above-described aspects.
[0107] The plurality of layers of the band 200 may further have at least one intermediate layer (not shown), or may not have it. At least one intermediate layer of the band 200 can have the same configuration as at least one intermediate layer 230a of the first band portion 200a having any of the above-described configurations.
[0108] In a state where the storage portion 100' containing the heat source portion HS is applied to the affected part A, at the time of the first winding, the band 200 is wound around the storage portion 100' and the affected part A so that the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 is on the side of the storage portion 100' with respect to the first surface layer 210, and the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 is overlapped with the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 at an arbitrary position.
[0109] When the storage part 100' with the heat source part HS is applied to the affected part A, at the time of the second winding, the band 200 is wound around the storage part 100' and the affected part A such that the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 is on the side of the storage part 100' with respect to the second surface layer 220, and the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 is overlapped with the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 at an arbitrary position.
[0110] With the end part on the Y - direction side or Y'-direction side of the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 in contact with the affected part A, at the time of the third winding, the band 200 is wound around the affected part A, the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 is overlapped with the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 at an arbitrary position, and the storage part 100' with the heat source part HS hits the affected part A directly or indirectly via the band 200.
[0111] With the end part on the Y - direction side or Y'-direction side of the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 in contact with the affected part A, at the time of the fourth winding, the band 200 is wound around the affected part A, the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 is overlapped with the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 at an arbitrary position, and the storage part 100' with the heat source part HS hits the affected part A directly or indirectly via the band 200.
[0112] When the band 200 has the same configuration as that of the above (1) of the first band portion 200a, during the first or third winding, due to the above overlapping, a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 are caught (detachably engaged) by a large number of piles on the second surface layer 220 of the band 200. When the first or third winding is released, the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 is separated from the first surface layer 210 of the band 200, so that a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 are disengaged from a large number of piles on the second surface layer 220, and the catching on a large number of piles on the second surface layer 220 is released. During the second or fourth winding, due to the above overlapping, a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 are caught (detachably engaged) by a large number of piles on the second surface layer 220 of the band 200. When the second or fourth winding is released, the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 is separated from the second surface layer 220 of the band 200, so that a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 are disengaged from a large number of piles on the second surface layer 220, and the catching on a large number of piles on the second surface layer 220 is released.
[0113] In addition, when a large number of elastic fibers are provided on the first surface layer 210 of the band 200, by the first, second, third or fourth winding, a large number of elastic fibers on the first surface layer 210 are pressed against the second surface layer 220, and the tip portions of a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 are exposed from a large number of elastic fibers on the first surface layer 210 and are caught (detachably engaged) by a large number of piles on the second surface layer 220. When the first, second, third or fourth winding is released, the first surface layer 210 and the second surface layer 220 are separated, so that the catching between a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 and a large number of piles on the second surface layer 220 is released, and at the same time, a large number of elastic fibers on the first surface layer 210 are restored and a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 are hidden by a large number of elastic fibers on the first surface layer 210.
[0114] When the band 200 has the same configuration as that of the above (2) of the first band portion 200a, during the first or third winding, due to the above-mentioned overlapping, a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 are entangled with or frictionally engaged with (detachably engaged with) a large number of engaging fibers on the second surface layer 220 of the band 200. When the first or third winding is released, as the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 is pulled away from the first surface layer 210 of the band 200, a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 are disengaged from a large number of engaging fibers on the second surface layer 220, and the entanglement or frictional engagement with a large number of engaging fibers on the second surface layer 220 is released. During the second or fourth winding, due to the above-mentioned overlapping, a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 are entangled with or frictionally engaged with (detachably engaged with) a large number of engaging fibers on the second surface layer 220 of the band 200. When the second or fourth winding is released, as the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 is pulled away from the second surface layer 220 of the band 200, a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 are disengaged from a large number of engaging fibers on the second surface layer 220, and the entanglement or frictional engagement with a large number of engaging fibers on the second surface layer 220 is released.
[0115] In addition, when a large number of elastic fibers are provided on the first surface layer 210 of the band 200, by the first, second, third or fourth winding, a large number of elastic fibers on the first surface layer 210 are pressed against the second surface layer 220, and the tip portions of a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 are exposed from a large number of elastic fibers on the first surface layer 210 and are entangled with or frictionally engaged with (detachably engaged with) a large number of engaging fibers on the second surface layer 220. When the first, second, third or fourth winding is released, as the first surface layer 210 and the second surface layer 220 are pulled apart, the entanglement or frictional engagement between a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 and a large number of engaging fibers on the second surface layer 220 is released, and at the same time, a large number of elastic fibers on the first surface layer 210 are restored and a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 are hidden by a large number of elastic fibers on the first surface layer 210.
[0116] When the band 200 has the same configuration as that of the above (3) of the first band portion 200a, during the first, second, third, or fourth winding, due to the above-mentioned overlapping, the first surface 211 of the first surface layer 210 and the second surface 221 of the second surface layer 220 are frictionally engaged. When the first, second, third, or fourth winding is released, the first surface layer 210 and the second surface layer 220 are separated, thereby releasing the frictional engagement between the first surface 211 of the first surface layer 210 and the second surface 221 of the second surface layer 220.
[0117] Note that among the above-mentioned first to fourth windings of the band 200, at least one winding is sufficient.
[0118] The storage portion 100' is provided on the band 200. The storage portion 100' can be configured, for example, in any of the following (e) to (j).
[0119] (e) The storage portion 100' includes a mounting portion that is an arbitrary part in the Y - Y' direction of the band 200 (for example, the end portion on the Y direction side of the band 200, the end portion on the Y' direction side of the band 200, or the intermediate portion between the end portion on the Y direction side and the end portion on the Y' direction side of the band 200), and a pocket cloth 103' attached on the surface on the Z direction side (a part of the first surface 211 of the first surface layer 210) or the surface on the Z' direction side (a part of the second surface 221 of the second surface layer 220) of the mounting portion of the band 200. The pocket cloth 103' has its end portions on the Y direction side, Y' direction side, and X' direction side attached to the mounting portion with an adhesive, thread, or the like. Therefore, the opening 101' of the storage portion 100' opens in the X direction. The edge portion 102' of the opening 101' is at least one of the end portion on the X direction side of the pocket cloth 103' and the portion on the X direction side of the mounting portion with respect to the opening 101'. The opening 101' and the edge portion 102' may be located on the winding path of the first, third, or fourth winding of the band 200.
[0120] (f) The storage part 100’ is different from the storage part 100’ in (e) above only in that it further has a lid (not shown). The lid is rotatably provided at a portion on the X-direction side with respect to the opening 101’ of the part to be attached and is configured to open and close the opening 101’ freely. The opening 101’ and the lid may be located on the winding path of the first, third, or fourth winding of the band 200.
[0121] (g) The storage part 100’ is a storage hole in which a plurality of layers of an arbitrary part in the Y-Y’ direction of the band 200 (for example, the end part on the Y-direction side of the band 200, the end part on the Y’-direction side of the band 200, or the intermediate part between the end part on the Y-direction side and the end part on the Y’-direction side of the band 200) are partially separated between two adjacent layers in the Z-Z’ direction. The parts on the Y-direction side, Y’-direction side, and X’-direction side of the two layers are fixed to each other with an adhesive layer or thread. The opening 101’ of the storage part 100’ opens in the X direction. The edge part 102’ of the opening 101’ is at least one of the edges on the Z-direction side and the Z’-direction side of the opening 101’ of the storage part 100’. The opening 101’ and the edge part 102’ may be located on the winding path of the first, third, or fourth winding of the band 200.
[0122] (h) The storage part 100’ is different from the storage part 100’ in (g) above only in that it further includes a lid (not shown). The lid is rotatably provided at at least one of the edges on the Z-direction side and the Z’-direction side of the opening 101’ of the storage part 100’ and is configured to open and close the opening 101’ freely. The opening 101’ and the lid may be located on the winding path of the first, third, or fourth winding of the band 200.
[0123] (i) The storage part 100’ has an attached part which is an arbitrary part in the Y - Y’ direction of the band 200 (for example, the end part on the Y - direction side of the band 200, the end part on the Y’ - direction side of the band 200, or the middle part between the end part on the Y - direction side and the end part on the Y’ - direction side of the band 200), and a first pocket cloth 103a’ and a second pocket cloth 103b’ attached on the surface on the Z - direction side (a part of the first surface 211 of the first surface layer 210) or the surface on the Z’ - direction side (a part of the second surface 221 of the second surface layer 220) of the attached part of the band 200. The end part on the Y - direction side, the end part on the Y’ - direction side, and the end part on the X - direction side of the first pocket cloth 103a’ are attached to the part on the X - direction side of the surface on the Z - direction side or the Z’ - direction side of the attached part with an adhesive, thread, or the like. The end part on the Y - direction side, the end part on the Y’ - direction side, and the end part on the X’ - direction side of the second pocket cloth 103b’ are attached to the part on the X’ - direction side of the surface on the Z - direction side or the Z’ - direction side of the attached part with an adhesive, thread, or the like. The end part on the X’ - direction side of the first pocket cloth 103a’ and the end part on the X - direction side of the second pocket cloth 103b’ may overlap each other in the Z - Z’ direction, may be in contact with each other in the X - X’ direction, or may be arranged opposite to each other with a gap. In any case, the space between the end part on the X’ - direction side of the first pocket cloth 103a’ and the end part on the X - direction side of the second pocket cloth 103b’ forms an opening 101’ extending in the Y - Y’ direction. The end part on the X’ - direction side of the first pocket cloth 103a’ becomes the edge part 102’ (the first edge part) of the opening 101’, and the end part on the X - direction side of the second pocket cloth 103b’ becomes the edge part 102’ (the second edge part) of the opening 101’.
[0124] (j) The storage part 100’ has an attachment part which is an arbitrary part in the Y - Y’ direction of the band 200 (for example, the end part on the Y - direction side of the band 200, the end part on the Y’ - direction side of the band 200, or the middle part between the end part on the Y - direction side and the end part on the Y’ - direction side of the band 200), and the first pocket cloth 103a’ and the second pocket cloth 103b’ attached on the surface on the Z - direction side (a part of the first surface 211 of the first surface layer 210) or the surface on the Z’ - direction side (a part of the second surface 221 of the second surface layer 220) of the attachment part of the band 200. The end part on the Y - direction side, the end part on the X - direction side, and the end part on the X’ - direction side of the first pocket cloth 103a’ are attached to the part on the Y - direction side on the Z - direction side or the Z’ - direction side of the attachment part with an adhesive, thread, or the like. The end part on the Y’ - direction side, the end part on the X - direction side, and the end part on the X’ - direction side of the second pocket cloth 103b’ are attached to the part on the Y’ - direction side on the Z - direction side or the Z’ - direction side of the attachment part with an adhesive, thread, or the like.

In any case, the space between the end part on the Y - direction side of the first pocket cloth 103a’ and the end part on the Y’ - direction side of the second pocket cloth 103b’ forms an opening 101’ extending in the X - X’ direction. The end part on the Y - direction side of the first pocket cloth 103a’ becomes the edge part 102’ (the first edge part) of the opening 101’, and the end part on the Y’ - direction side of the second pocket cloth 103b’ becomes the edge part 102’ (the second edge part) of the opening 101’.

For example, the first outer layer 110’ may be provided as the outer layer on the Z-direction side of the edge 102’ of the opening 101’ of the pocket cloth 103’, or may be provided as the outer layer on the Z-direction side of the edge 102’ of the opening 101’ of the pocket cloth 103’ and / or the outer layer on the Z-direction side of the lid, or may be provided as the entire outer layer on the Z-direction side of the pocket cloth 103’.

[0129] When the storage part 100’ has the configuration of the above (i) or (j) and the first pocket cloth 103a’ and the second pocket cloth 103b’ are attached to the surface on the Z-direction side of the attachment part of the band 200, the first outer layer 110’ may be formed by a part of the first pocket cloth 103a’ and a part of the second pocket cloth 103b’, and may be provided in the storage part 100’ so as to be located on the winding path of the first, third, or fourth winding of the band 200 in the storage part 100’. For example, the first outer layer 110’ may be provided as the outer layer on the Z-direction side of the edge 102’ of the opening 101’ of the first pocket cloth 103a’ and the outer layer on the Z-direction side of the edge 102’ of the opening 101’ of the second pocket cloth 103b’, or may be provided as the entire outer layer on the Z-direction side of the first pocket cloth 103a’ and the second pocket cloth 103b’.
[0130] By the first winding, the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 is superposed on the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 and on the first outer layer 110’ of the storage part 100’ at an arbitrary position. By the third winding, the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 is superposed on the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 and on the first outer layer 110’ of the storage part 100’ at an arbitrary position.

By the fourth winding, the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 is superposed on the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 and on the second outer layer of the storage part 100’ at an arbitrary position. By the third winding, the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 is superposed on an arbitrary position on the first surface layer 210 of the band 200, and an arbitrary part of the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 is superposed on the second outer layer of the storage part 100’. At the time of the second, third, or fourth winding, it becomes as any one of the following (ko) to (shi).
[0140] (ko) When the band 200 has the configuration of the above (1), by the second, third, or fourth winding, a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 are caught (detachably engaged) by a large number of piles on the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 and a large number of piles on the second outer layer. When the second, third, or fourth winding is released, a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 are separated from a large number of piles on the second surface layer 220 and a large number of piles on the second outer layer, and the catching with respect to a large number of piles on the second surface layer 220 and a large number of piles on the second outer layer is released.
[0141] When the band (sa) 200 has the configuration of (2) above, by the second, third, or fourth winding, a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 are entangled with or frictionally engaged with (detachably engaged with) a large number of engaging fibers on the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 and a large number of engaging fibers on the second outer layer. When the second, third, or fourth winding is released, a large number of hooks on the first surface layer 210 are separated from a large number of engaging fibers on the second surface layer 220 and a large number of engaging fibers on the second outer layer, and the entanglement or frictional engagement with a large number of engaging fibers on the second surface layer 220 and a large number of engaging fibers on the second outer layer is released.
[0142] When the band (shi) 200 has the configuration of (3) above, by the second, third, or fourth winding, the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 is frictionally engaged with (detachably engaged with) the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 and the second outer layer of the storage part 100'. When the second, third, or fourth winding is released, the first surface layer 210 is separated from the second surface layer 220 and the second outer layer, and the frictional engagement with the second surface layer 220 and the second outer layer is released.
[0143] In any of the cases of (e) to (ka) above, when the opening 101' is located on the winding path of the second, third, or fourth winding, by the second, third, or fourth winding, the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 covers the opening 101'. By the second, third, or fourth winding, the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 may cover not only the opening 101' but also the edge 102'' and / or the lid of the opening 101'.
[0144] When the storage part 100' is provided at the middle part of the band 200 in the Y - Y' direction, the band 200 has a first part on the Y - side with respect to the storage part 100' and a second part on the Y'- side with respect to the storage part 100'.
[0145] With the storage part 100' containing the heat source part HS applied to the affected part A, the first part and the second part of the band 200 may intersect at an arbitrary position, and the second surface layer 220 of the first part of the band 200 and the first surface layer 210 of the second part of the band 200 may be overlapped at the intersection. By this overlap, the second surface layer 220 of the first part of the band 200 and the first surface layer 210 of the second part of the band 200 are detachably engaged at the intersection. For example, the second surface layer 220 of the first part of the band 200 and the first surface layer 210 of the second part of the band 200 are detachably engaged at the intersection in the same manner as the engagement of the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a having any one of the above-described configurations (1) to (3).
[0146] Alternatively, with the storage part 100' containing the heat source part HS applied to the affected part A, the first part and the second part of the band 200 may intersect at an arbitrary position, and the first surface layer 210 of the first part of the band 200 and the second surface layer 220 of the second part of the band 200 may be overlapped at the intersection. By this overlap, the first surface layer 210 of the first part of the band 200 and the second surface layer 220 of the second part of the band 200 are detachably engaged at the intersection. For example, the first surface layer 210 of the first part of the band 200 and the second surface layer 220 of the second part of the band 200 are detachably engaged at the intersection in the same manner as the engagement of the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a having any one of the above-described configurations (1) to (3).
[0147] As described above, with the storage part 100' containing the heat source part HS in contact with the affected part A and the first part and the second part of the band 200 intersecting at an arbitrary position, the first part or the second part may be overlapped on the storage part 100' and may cover the opening 101' and the edge part 102' of the storage part 100', or the opening 101' and the lid of the storage part 100'.
[0148] When the storage part 100' has the first outer layer 110', as described above, with the storage part 100' containing the heat source part HS brought into contact with the affected part A and with the first part and the second part of the band 200 intersecting at an arbitrary position, the first part or the second part may be superposed on the storage part 100' and the second surface layer 220 of the first part or the second surface layer 220 of the second part may be detachably engaged with the first outer layer 110' of the storage part 100'. For example, similar to any of (a) to (u) above, the second surface layer 220 of the first part or the second surface layer 220 of the second part may be detachably engaged with the first outer layer 110' of the storage part 100'.
[0149] When the storage part 100' has the second outer layer 120', as described above, with the storage part 100' containing the heat source part HS brought into contact with the affected part A and with the first part and the second part of the band 200 intersecting at an arbitrary position, the first part or the second part may be superposed on the storage part 100' and the first surface layer 210 of the first part or the first surface layer 210 of the second part may be detachably engaged with the second outer layer 120' of the storage part 100'. For example, similar to any of (e) to (ka) above, the first surface layer 210 of the first part or the first surface layer 210 of the second part may be detachably engaged with the second outer layer 120' of the storage part 100'.
[0150] In the case of the body-worn device S3 as described above, the following technical features and effects are achieved.
[0151] When winding for the first or third time, by superposing the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 on the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 at an arbitrary position, or when winding for the second or fourth time, by superposing the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 on the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 at an arbitrary position, the first surface layer 210 and the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 are detachably engaged at an arbitrary position as described above. In this way, the body-worn device S3 can fix the position of the storage part 100' containing the heat source part HS at an arbitrary position with respect to the affected part A.
[0152] When the first outer layer 110' of the storage part 100' is provided, by the first or third winding, the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 is superposed at an arbitrary position on the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 and on the first outer layer 110' of the storage part 100'. As described above, the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 is detachably engaged not only with the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 but also with the first outer layer 110' of the storage part 100' at an arbitrary position. Further, by the fourth winding, the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 is superposed at an arbitrary position on the second surface layer 220 of the band 200, and an arbitrary part of the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 is superposed on the first outer layer 110' of the storage part 100'. As described above, the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 is detachably engaged not only with the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 but also with the first outer layer 110' of the storage part 100' at an arbitrary position. Therefore, the strength of fixing the position of the body-worn device S3 is improved. Moreover, when the opening 101' is provided on the winding path of the first, third, or fourth winding, by the first, third, or fourth winding, as described above, the band 200 is detachably engaged with the edge 102' and / or the lid of the opening 101' at an arbitrary position and covers the opening 101'. Therefore, the dropout of the heat source part HS from the opening 101' is suppressed.
[0153] When the second outer layer of the storage part 100' is provided, by the second or fourth winding, the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 is superposed at an arbitrary position on the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 and on the second outer layer of the storage part 100'. As described above, the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 is detachably engaged not only with the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 but also with the second outer layer of the storage part 100' at an arbitrary position. Also, by the third winding, the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 is superposed at an arbitrary position on the first surface layer 210 of the band 200, and an arbitrary part of the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 is superposed on the second outer layer of the storage part 100'. As described above, the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 is detachably engaged not only with the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 but also with the second outer layer of the storage part 100' at an arbitrary position. Therefore, the strength of the position fixation of the body-worn device S3 is improved. Moreover, when the opening 101' is provided on the winding path of the second, third, or fourth winding, by the second, third, or fourth winding, as described above, the band 200 is detachably engaged with the edge 102' of the opening 101' and / or the lid at an arbitrary position and covers the opening 101'. Thus, the dropout of the heat source part HS from the opening 101' is suppressed.
[0154] When the storage part 100' is provided at the middle part of the band 200 in the Y - Y' direction, with the storage part 100' containing the heat source part HS applied to the affected part A, by crossing the first part of the band 200 and the second part of the band 200, they are engaged at the crossing part. Even in this way, the storage part 100' containing the heat source part HS can be fixed in a state where it is applied to the affected part A.

[0175] In any of the cases of (*) to (*) above, when the opening 101'' is located on the winding path of the second, third, or fourth winding, by the second, third, or fourth winding, the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 covers the opening 101''. By the second, third, or fourth winding, the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 may cover not only the opening 101'' but also the edge 102'' of the opening 101'' and / or the lid.
[0176] When the storage part 100'' is provided in the middle part of the band 200 in the Y - Y' direction, the band 200 has a first part on the Y - side with respect to the storage part 100'' and a second part on the Y' - side with respect to the storage part 100''.
[0177] With the storage part 100'' containing the heat source part HS applied to the affected part A, the first part of the band 200 and the second part of the band 200 may intersect at an arbitrary position, and the second surface layer 220 of the first part of the band 200 and the first surface layer 210 of the second part of the band 200 may be overlapped at the intersection. By this overlap, the second surface layer 220 of the first part of the band 200 and the first surface layer 210 of the second part of the band 200 are detachably engaged at the intersection. For example, the second surface layer 220 of the first part of the band 200 and the first surface layer 210 of the second part of the band 200 are detachably engaged at the intersection in the same manner as the engagement between the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a having any of the configurations (1) to (3) described above.
[0178] Alternatively, with the storage part 100'' containing the heat source part HS applied to the affected part A, the first part and the second part of the band 200 may intersect at an arbitrary position, and the first surface layer 210 of the first part of the band 200 and the second surface layer 220 of the second part of the band 200 may be overlapped at the intersection. By this overlap, the first surface layer 210 of the first part of the band 200 and the second surface layer 220 of the second part of the band 200 are detachably engaged at the intersection. For example, the first surface layer 210 of the first part of the band 200 and the second surface layer 220 of the second part of the band 200 are detachably engaged at the intersection in the same manner as the engagement between the first surface layer 210a and the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a having any of the above-described configurations (1) to (3).
[0179] As described above, with the storage part 100'' containing the heat source part HS abutted against the affected part A and the first part and the second part of the band 200 intersecting at an arbitrary position, the part on the free end side from the intersection of the first part or the second part may be overlapped with the storage part 100'' and may cover the opening 101'' and the edge part 102'' of the storage part 100'', or the opening 101'' and the lid of the storage part 100''.
[0180] In the case of the body-worn device S4 as described above, the following technical features and effects are achieved.
[0181] When winding for the first or third time, the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 is overlapped with the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 at an arbitrary position, or when winding for the second or fourth time, the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 is overlapped with the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 at an arbitrary position. Thus, as described above, the first surface layer 210 of the band 200 and the second surface layer 220 of the band 200 are detachably engaged at an arbitrary position. In this way, the body-worn device S4 can fix the storage part 100'' containing the heat source part HS at an arbitrary position on the affected part A.
[0182] Moreover, when the opening 101'' is provided on the winding path of the first, third, or fourth winding, the band 200 covers the opening 101'' as described above by the first, third, or fourth winding. Therefore, the dropout of the heat source part HS from the opening 101'' is suppressed. When the opening 101'' is provided on the winding path of the second, third, or fourth winding, the band 200 covers the opening 101'' as described above by the second, third, or fourth winding. Therefore, the dropout of the heat source part HS from the opening 101'' is suppressed.
[0183] When the storage part 100'' is provided in the middle part of the band 200 in the Y - Y' direction, with the storage part 100'' containing the heat source part HS applied to the affected part A, the first part of the band 200 and the second part of the band 200 are crossed, and they engage at the crossing part. Even in this way, the storage part 100'' containing the heat source part HS can be fixed in the state of being applied to the affected part A.
[0184] Note that the above-described body-worn device is not limited to the above embodiments, and arbitrary design changes can be made within the scope described in the claims. This will be described in detail below.
[0185] The first band part 200a may be plural, and each may be attached to the storage part 100 and extend in the Y' direction so as to at least partially separate from the storage part 100. The second band part 200b (only when provided) may be plural, and each may be attached to the storage part 100 and extend in the Y direction so as to at least partially separate from the storage part 100.
[0186] The body-worn device S1 may have the storage part 100 and the first band part 200a as separate bodies. In this case, with the storage part 100 applied to the affected part A, the first band part 200a may be wound around the storage part 100 and the affected part A as described above. The body-worn device S1 may omit the storage part 100. In this case, with the heat source part HS applied to the affected part, the first band part 200a may be wound around the heat source part HS and the affected part as described above.
[0187] The first band part 200a has the first surface layer 210a and / or the second surface layer 220a, and the storage part 100 has the first outer layer 110 and the second outer layer 120. When the first or third winding is performed, the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a is superposed on the first outer layer 110 of the storage part 100 at an arbitrary position, so that the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a and the first outer layer 110 of the storage part 100 are detachably engaged at an arbitrary position as described above, and / or when the second or fourth winding is performed, the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a is superposed on the second outer layer 120 of the storage part 100 at an arbitrary position, so that the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a and the second outer layer 120 of the storage part 100 are detachably engaged at an arbitrary position as described above. In this case, the dimension of the first band part 200a in the Y-Y' direction may be as described above, or may be smaller than the length dimension of the outer periphery of the storage part 100 and the affected part A in the state where the storage part 100 is applied to the affected part A.
[0188] When only the first and / or the third winding is performed, the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a and the second outer layer 120 of the storage part 100 can be omitted. When only the second and / or the fourth winding is performed, the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a and the first outer layer 110 of the storage part 100 can be omitted. The first outer layer of the storage part 100 having any of the above-described configurations may be a layer that does not engage with the second surface layer 220a of the first band part 200a. The second outer layer of the storage part 100 having any of the above-described configurations may be a layer that does not engage with the first surface layer 210a of the first band part 200a.
[0189] A plurality of the storage parts 100’, 100’’ having any of the above-described configurations may be provided on the band 200. For example, a plurality of the storage parts 100’ may be configured in any of the above (e) to (j) and arranged at intervals in the Y - Y’ direction (see FIGS. 14 to 17), or a plurality of the storage parts 100’’ may be configured in any of the above (e) to (j) and arranged at intervals in the Y - Y’ direction (see FIGS. 14 to 17). At least one of the plurality of the storage parts 100’, 100’’ may be configured to accommodate and use the heat source part HS.
[0190] The first outer layer of the storage part 100’, 100’’ having any of the above-described configurations may be a layer that does not engage with the second surface layer 220 of the band 200. The second outer layer of the storage part 100’, 100’’ having any of the above-described configurations may be a layer that does not engage with the first surface layer 210 of the band 200.
[0191] The storage parts 100, 100’, 100’’ having any of the above-described configurations may be configured to have a heat source part HS built therein.
[0192] The above Y - Y’ direction can be arbitrarily set as long as it is substantially orthogonal to the above Z - Z’ direction. The above X - X‘ direction can be arbitrarily set as long as it intersects the above Y - Y’ direction and is substantially orthogonal to the above Z - Z’ direction.
