Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a hand and foot protector that is worn on the upper or lower limbs of wheelchair users, such as people requiring care or people with injuries to the upper or lower limbs, when getting in or out of a wheelchair, or to protect the upper or lower limbs during daily life. [Background technology]

[0002] When a wheelchair user gets into or out of a wheelchair, a caregiver or the like generally assists the wheelchair user. When getting into or out of a wheelchair, the wheelchair user's lower legs (the area between the knee and ankle), or the forearms or upper arms (the area corresponding to the upper legs) may collide with the components that make up the wheelchair. This can cause bruises or the like on the wheelchair user's lower legs or upper legs, and the wheelchair user himself or herself is expected to feel considerable pain.

[0003] When getting on and off the wheelchair, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive to assist the wheelchair user without causing the lower or upper limbs to collide with wheelchair components. Therefore, it has been considered to attach a care protector to the lower or upper limbs of the wheelchair user. As an example, Patent Document 1 discloses a care protector that is wrapped around the area between the elbow and wrist or between the knee and ankle of the care recipient, and has a structure including an outer cloth made of a water-impermeable material such as a synthetic resin, a lining cloth made of a sweat-absorbent material that has flexibility and cushioning properties and can absorb sweat from the legs or arms of the care recipient, and an intermediate cloth arranged between the outer cloth and the lining cloth.

[0004] The outer cloth, inner cloth and intermediate cloth are formed into a roughly trapezoidal shape in plan view, and are connected together by quilting so that they do not come apart. The device is wrapped around any part of the cared person's arm or leg that comes into contact with the attachment part of the wheelchair, with the longer side of the upper side of the roughly trapezoidal shape facing upward toward the elbow or knee, and the shorter side of the lower side facing downward toward the wrist or ankle. The device can be put on and taken off by engaging and releasing male and female hook-and-loop fasteners arranged opposite each other on the outer cloth and inner cloth.

[0005] The materials of the outer cloth, inner cloth, and intermediate cloth and the sewing structure of the outer cloth, inner cloth, and intermediate cloth of the nursing care protector are not structured to exhibit elasticity. In addition, the size and installation position of the male and female hook-and-loop fasteners are not structured to correspond to the individual differences in the parts of the body worn by different care recipients. Therefore, when using this nursing care protector, it is necessary to determine and prepare the size according to the size of the part of the body worn by the wearer.

[0006] Next, a cold weather cover for keeping feet warm is shown in Patent Document 2. The cover body of this cold weather cover is composed of a double-layered cloth piece with a water-repellent or waterproof material on the front side and a quilted back side with padding, and the cloth piece itself is configured to be unable to exhibit stretchability. It is described that a stretchable part is formed by attaching a stretchable material to the cloth piece in the circumferential direction, but the specific structure is not disclosed. Therefore, it is unclear whether the cover body can exhibit stretchability. It is also unclear whether this cold weather cover can exhibit a function of protecting the wearer's feet when they collide with some hard object.

[0007] Furthermore, Patent Document 3 shows a foot wrap designed to keep warm that is wrapped around the lower leg over clothing. In this foot wrap, emphasizing the warmth achieved by tightening, it is described that elastic woven fabric is used for the outer and inner layers, but the specific material and structure are not shown. In addition, a pile woven fabric is exemplified as the outer material in the example, but pile woven fabric cannot be said to be a material with elasticity. [Patent Document 1] Patent No. 4009957 [Patent Document 2] Utility Model Registration No. 3057664 [Patent Document 3] Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 58-163513 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0008] The present invention aims to prevent damage and pain to the lower or upper limbs of a person requiring care, by cushioning the impact when a hard object, such as a wheelchair component, collides with the lower or upper limbs of the person requiring care, and to provide a hand and foot protector that can be attached to the lower or upper limbs of a person requiring care with relative ease and that can be attached with an appropriate tightening force to conform to the thickness of the attachment portion of the lower or upper limb. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] The present invention provides a hand and foot protection device comprising a rectangular main body and a detachable fixing part arranged at the winding end of the main body, the main body being made of an elastic outer cloth and an elastic lining cloth which are overlapped and sewn together at their outer periphery, and comprising an inverted bag body and a shock absorbing member which has a shape which can be stored inside the bag body and is stored inside the bag body, a plurality of concave fasteners are installed in the detachable fixing range of the main body with their longitudinal direction extending in the width direction of the main body and spaced apart from each other, the concave fasteners being attached by sewing together with the outer cloth, the shock absorbing member and the lining, the detachable fixing part being made of a low-elasticity cloth material and having a convex fastener installed on its reverse side, the detachable fixing part being integrally arranged at the winding end of the main body. The present invention also provides a hand and foot protector comprising a rectangular main body and a detachable fixing part arranged at the end of the roll of the main body, the main body being made of elastic outer and inner fabrics which are overlapped and sewn together at their outer periphery, the main body being made of an inverted bag and a shock absorbing member which has a shape which can be stored inside the bag and is stored inside the bag, a plurality of concave fasteners are installed in the detachable fixing range of the main body with their longitudinal direction extending in the width direction of the main body and spaced apart from each other, the concave fasteners being attached by sewing together the outer fabric, the shock absorbing member and the lining, the detachable fixing part being integrally formed by the outer fabric and lining of the main body, and a convex fastener being installed on its reverse side. Effect of the Invention

[0010] According to the present invention, the shock absorbing member made of soft polyurethane foam (hereinafter simply referred to as "urethane") constituting the hand and foot protector main body absorbs the shock when the wearer's lower or upper limbs collide with, for example, a component constituting a wheelchair, thereby preventing damage to the relevant part and reducing pain. In addition, the main body of the hand and foot protector has a structure that is stretchable in the long side direction, and the fastening force can be adjusted by the detachable fixing part in a state corresponding to the thickness of the lower or upper limb when the hand and foot protector is worn on the lower or upper limb, making the wearing operation easy. The main body itself has stretchability and can be worn following the circumferential length of the wearing part, preventing problems such as falling off. The soft urethane foam is widely used in mattresses, etc., and it is considered that the soft urethane foam with a hardness classification of "hard" or "medium" can be used for this hand and foot protection device. It is also possible to select the hardness of the soft urethane foam appropriately depending on the usage situation of this hand and foot protection device. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0013] An embodiment of the hand and foot protection device of the present invention will be described below with reference to Figs. 1 As shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the hand and foot protection device is formed in a rectangular shape. The four corners of the rectangle are formed in an arc shape. 1 The bag body that constitutes 10 As shown in Fig. 3, the outer fabric 11 and the lining fabric 12 are sewn together with a sewing machine with a seam allowance of about 1 cm on the outer periphery, and then the outer fabric 11 and the lining fabric 12 are turned inside out and urethane 14 is inserted inside. 10It is a custom-made product with a rectangular shape that can be stored inside the container, and its thickness is about 1 cm, and it is an example of the shock absorbing member in this embodiment. The urethane 14 used in this embodiment is manufactured by sponge specialty store Softprene Co., Ltd., has a product name of "Soft Urethane Sponge", has a JIS standard density (kg / 35±3) and hardness (N) of 122.6±29.4, and is the second softest product of the company.

[0014] The outer periphery of the turned-inside-out outer fabric 11 and the lining fabric 12 is configured by overlapping and sewing the folded-back portion of the outer fabric 11 and the folded-back portion of the lining fabric 12 together. 10 When the bag is turned inside out and the urethane 14 is inserted into the bag, 10 An unstitched section of about 10 cm is formed on a part of the outer circumference, and the unstitched section is used for turning inside out and inserting urethane 14. The unstitched section is sewn by hand to the outer fabric 11 and the lining fabric 12, and then the entire outer circumference is sewn.

[0015] The hand and foot protection device body manufactured in this way 1 An example of the hand and foot protection device is configured to be rectangular as a whole, as shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. 1 The length of the long side is about 48 cm, and the length of the short side is about 24.5 cm. 1 The size of the hand and foot protection device is based on the assumption that the diameter of the wearer's lower limbs, consisting of the shins and calves, is approximately 13 cm at maximum. 1 The length of the short side of the hand and foot protection device is designed based on the assumption that the wearer's length from the knee to the ankle is about 24.5 cm. The optimal length of these long and short sides, as well as the dimensions of each part such as the binding belt described below, varies depending on the user's physique, so 1 It is also conceivable that the dimensions of the tie belt can be selected according to the user's physique, such as large size: L, medium size: M, and small size: S.

[0016] Hand and foot protection equipment 1 Includes two tie belts 2Each of these tie belts is attached. 2 The attachment position of the hand and foot protection device is 1 From the long side edges on both sides towards the inside, 1 The hand and foot protection device is installed at a position equivalent to 1 / 4 of the short side length of the 1 The binding belt is placed at the exact center of the area divided into two parts at the center of the short side direction. 2 Therefore, the hand and foot protection device body 1 The upper and lower halves are tied with their respective binding belts. 2 It can be fixed by:

[0017] Binding Belt 2 is made of a material that is itself stretchable, has a rubber cord built in, and is configured so that when pulled in the longitudinal direction, it stretches and generates a contracting reaction force. 2 The total length of the hand and foot protection device is 1 The length of the long side of the belt is slightly shorter than that of the other belts, at about 46cm. 2 One end 2E of the hand and foot protection device body 1 The end of the belt is attached so that it protrudes about 9 cm from the end 1E of the belt. 2 The other end 2S of the hand and foot protection device body 1 The arm is attached by sewing about 11 cm inside the starting end 1S of the arm. When this 11 cm wide part is wrapped around the thickest part of the lower leg, 1 The winding start end 1S and the winding end end 1E of the belt are overlapped. 2 Hand and foot protection equipment body 1 The outer surface of the outer cloth 11 is sewn together with the outer cloth 11, the urethane 14, and the lining cloth 12.

[0018] Binding Belt 2 The hand and foot protection equipment 1 A convex fastener 21 (for example, a hook-and-loop fastener having an opening hook or the like) is sewn and attached to the back surface of one end 2E protruding from the binding belt. 2The width of the tie belt is approximately the same as that of the one end 2E, and the length of the tie belt is approximately 9 cm. 2 At the other end 2S of the tie belt, a concave fastener 22 (for example, a hook-and-loop fastener having loops or the like) is attached by sewing to the surface. 2 The concave fastener 22 has a length of about 18 cm, which is twice that of the convex fastener 21. 2 The portion where the convex fastener 21 and the concave fastener 22 are attached is configured not to stretch because the convex fastener 21 and the concave fastener 22 are each made of a material that does not stretch. 2 This is the portion between the convex fastener 21 and the concave fastener 22, which is made up only of a tie belt material, and has an elastic structure in a range approximately twice the total length of the convex fastener 21.

[0019] Binding Belt 2 Hand and foot protection equipment 1 The structure of the attachment to the hand and foot protection device will be described with reference to Fig. 4. The hand and foot protection device body is made up of a surface cloth 11, a urethane 14, and a lining cloth 12. 1 , Cable tie 2 The outer fabric 11 is placed on the front surface of the outer fabric 11 and lining fabric 12, and then sewn together by flat stitching using a sewing machine. In this structure, the urethane 14 is depressed by the tightening force during sewing on the front surface sides of the outer fabric 11 and lining fabric 12, forming a recessed portion X at the sewing line. In this structure, the urethane 14 is sandwiched between the upper and lower sewing threads and sewn together by flat stitching as shown in Figure 4, so the sewing threads meander in the thickness direction, and the binding belt 2 And the hand and foot protection equipment 1 The tie belt is configured to be stretchable in its longitudinal direction. 2 And the hand and foot protection equipment 1 Since the tie belt has elasticity in the long side direction and is sewn together by flat stitching, it is possible to form a structure in which both sewn members can stretch in the long side direction. 2 The contraction force of the hand and foot protection device1 By tightening the outer side with a specified tightening force, the conformability and stability when worn are ensured.

[0020] The following describes how the hand and foot protection device according to the embodiment of the present invention is used by a person requiring care. When the person requiring care is placed in a wheelchair, first, the hand and foot protection device body is 1 Start wrapping the lower leg from the start end 1S, and overlap the end 1E with the start end 1S. 2 The convex fastener 21 at one end 2E of the tie belt is attached to the concave fastener 22 at the other end 2S. 2 The one end 2E of the hand and foot protection device is pulled in its longitudinal direction and tension is applied to the device. 1 The strap can be attached securely to the lower leg or upper arm. 2 One end 2E where the convex fastener 21 is provided is structured to protrude from the hand and foot protection device main body 1, so that the one end 2E can be easily held and attached to the concave fastener 22. That is, compared to the structure in which the hook-and-loop fastener is provided on the back surface of the nursing protector of Patent Document 1, the convex fastener 21 can be attached to the concave fastener 22 more reliably, and workability can be improved.

[0021] After putting the hand and foot protection device on the person requiring care, the person is put into a wheelchair. Even if the lower legs or upper arms of the person requiring care hit components of the wheelchair while getting into the wheelchair, the hand and foot protection device absorbs the impact, and damage and pain to the lower legs or upper arms of the person requiring care can be alleviated. The hand and foot protection device according to the present invention further comprises a hand and foot protection device main body. 1 Since the length of the long side of the strap is longer than the outer circumference of the wearer's lower leg, the lower leg can be reliably protected. 2 In the above, an expandable portion consisting of only a tie belt is formed between one end 2E where the convex fastener 21 is attached and the other end 2S where the concave fastener 22 is attached, so that the hand and foot protection device main body 1 can be attached by wrapping it around a thick lower leg or a thin forearm. 2The structure is such that the elasticity of the material itself is ensured and the material can be fixed in place by wrapping it around the lower leg or forearm, etc., which may have different thicknesses.

[0022] Next, the wearing state of the hand and foot protector according to the present invention will be described with reference to Figs. 5 to 7. Fig. 5 shows only the hand and foot protector in a state where it is wrapped around the thickest part of the lower limb. Fig. 5(a) is a schematic diagram showing the state of the binding belt in the hand and foot protector shown in Fig. 5, where the hand and foot protector is shown by two lines and the installation part of the convex fastener or concave fastener is shown by a thick black line. The outer circumference of the cylindrical part formed by the illustrated hand and foot protector is about 47 cm, the inner circumference is about 40 cm, and the inner diameter is about 13 cm. The axial length is about 24.5 cm. The binding belts installed at the upper and lower middle positions of this hand and foot protector. 2 The fastening state of the convex fastener 21 and the concave fastener 22 is as shown in FIG. 5(a), in which the convex fastener 21 is fastened to the other end 2S side of the concave fastener 22. In this state, the tie belt 2 The circumference of the ring-shaped portion formed by the above is approximately half the circumference of the portion where the convex fastener 21 is attached, the portion where no fastener is provided, and the portion where the concave fastener is attached. The circumference of this ring-shaped portion is ultimately fine-tuned by the degree of overlap of the fastening portions of the convex fastener 21 and the concave fastener 22. Figure 7 shows the hand and foot protector shown in Figure 5 placed on the lower leg of a wearer.

[0023] FIG. 6 shows the hand and foot protection device according to the present invention wrapped around the narrowest part between the elbow and the wrist. In this state, 1 The tubular portion formed by the illustrated hand and foot protection device has an outer circumferential length of about 35 cm, an inner circumferential length of about 19 cm, and an inner diameter of about 6 cm. 2 The fastening state of the convex fastener 21 and the concave fastener 22 is shown in Fig. 6(b) in the same manner as Fig. 5(a), with the convex fastener 21 fastened at a position close to the opposite side of the other end 2S of the concave fastener 22.2 The circumference of the ring-shaped portion is configured to a length equivalent to the length of the convex fastener 21 and the concave fastener 22. In this way, according to the hand and foot protection device of the present invention, each binding belt 2 By changing the fastening positions of the convex fastener 21 and the concave fastener 22 over a wide range by utilizing the parts where no hook-and-loop fasteners are provided, the wrap can be easily attached to correspond to the outer periphery of the object to be wrapped, i.e., the length of the outer periphery.

[0024] The following describes the situation in which the hand and foot protection device according to the present invention is used, and compares it with various commercially available products. When a person requiring care gets into a wheelchair, the device must be worn immediately if necessary. Leg warmers and supporters require the removal of trousers and shoes when putting them on and taking them off, which takes time and increases the burden on the caregiver. In addition, although the person requiring care may be able to put them on and take them off by themselves, it is assumed that it will take time as well. In addition, since they are in close contact with the skin when lying down, the lower and upper limbs may become sweaty if they are not removed, so it is not recommended to use them regularly. In the case of the hand and foot protection device according to the present invention, it can be worn directly on the lower or upper limbs or over clothing such as trousers, and can be worn instantly and in a short time without removing shoes or trousers. Furthermore, it is easy to remove.

[0025] People who need nursing care are often physically weak, and it is expected that they will have many opportunities to injure themselves through tripping or falling while moving around, or through bruising, in the course of their normal daily life. By wearing the hand and foot protector according to the present invention as a preventative measure, injuries to the lower legs and upper arms can be reduced. For people who need nursing care who have difficulty regulating their body temperature, wearing the hand and foot protector according to the present invention can maintain a warming effect even during cold seasons or in rooms where the air conditioner is working well. It has long been said that a cool head and warm feet lead to good health.

[0026] By wearing the hand and foot protection device according to the present invention when a child sits on the rear child seat of a bicycle and gets on and off the bicycle, injuries to the exposed hands and feet of a child who is very active can be prevented. In addition, even children who have difficulty speaking up on their own during cold weather can keep their lower legs and forearms warm while riding. The hand and foot protection device is easy to put on and take off, so it can be used immediately even when you are in a hurry.

[0027] The hand and foot protection device of the present invention can be worn over trousers or thick socks when working outdoors (including sports, etc.) in cold weather, and can be used easily and immediately without removing shoes or trousers, making it suitable for keeping warm. Even when working in an air-conditioned room, such as during office work or other work (night shifts), the device can be removed immediately when not needed, allowing it to be used without worrying about being seen by others.

[0028] By using the hand and foot protection equipment of the present invention when riding a motorcycle, it is possible to easily prevent injuries to the lower legs and forearms and keep them warm. However, it is difficult to say that it can prevent injuries in all accidents. Conventional protectors of this type are worn under overalls, so it is necessary to take off boots and pants before putting them on, which takes time to put on and take off, but the hand and foot protection equipment of the present invention can be put on and taken off immediately.

[0029] Next, a second embodiment of the hand and foot protection device of the present invention will be described with reference to Figs. 8 and 9. 50 The overall shape of the hand and foot protection device body is 1 At the end of the winding 1E, there is a triangular detachable fixing part. 60 The detachable fixing portion is provided. 60 Hand and foot protection equipment excluded 50 The structure of the main part of the hand and foot protection device is 1 It is almost the same as:

[0030] Hand and foot protection 50 The following description will focus on the differences from the above embodiment. 50 As shown in Figs. 8 and 9, the hand and foot protection device body of the embodiment is 1The main body part corresponds to 70 A removable fixing part of approximately triangular shape is attached to the end of the winding 1E side of the 60 The structure is formed as an integral unit.

[0031] This hand and foot protection 50 The main body of 70 The same as the first embodiment, the hood is made of a front cloth 51 and a back cloth 52, with urethane inserted between them. 60 The main body 70 The outer fabric 51 and the inner fabric 52 are extended and integrated into one piece. 60 A quilt batting is inserted between the outer fabric 51 and the inner fabric 52.

[0032] This hand and foot protection 50 The production of the body part is as follows: first, the outer fabric 51 and the inner fabric 52 are 70 and removable fixing part 60 Next, the outer periphery of the outer fabric 51 and the inner fabric 52 are sewn together except for the insertion portion of the urethane and the quilting core. After that, the outer fabric 51 and the inner fabric 52 are turned inside out, and the urethane is removed from the insertion portion to the main body. 70 The quilt core is inserted into the insertion portion and then fixed to the removable fixing portion. 60 In this state, the insertion portion and the hand and foot protection device are 50 Suture around the entire circumference.

[0033] Next, the detachable fixing part 60 and the main body 70 A non-stretchable cloth tape 81 having a predetermined tensile strength is disposed on the front side of the outer cloth 51 at the boundary between the outer cloth 51 and the removable fixing portion 82. 60 and the main body 70 That is, the cloth tape 81 is sewn in the width direction of the main body 100 at both ends in the lengthwise direction. 70 In the embodiment, the outer fabric 51, the urethane, and the lining fabric 52 are integrated into one body, and a detachable fixing part is provided. 60 In the step 10, the outer fabric 51, the quilt batting, and the lining fabric 52 are sewn together. Finally, the outer fabric 51, the urethane, the quilt batting, and the lining fabric 52 are sewn together at both longitudinal ends of the fabric tape 81. The cloth tape 81 is the same as the main body portion. 70 and removable fixing part 60 It is also conceivable to provide them on both the front and back surfaces of each of the outer fabrics 51, as well as on the front surface of each of the inner fabrics 52.

[0034] Main unit 70 The multiple concave fasteners 71 installed in the above embodiment are arranged in a range corresponding to the entire length of the concave fasteners 22 in the longitudinal direction, i.e., the main body 70 Starting from a position about 11 cm inside from the winding start end 1S at the detachable fixed part 60 Each concave fastener 71 is installed within a range of about 18 cm from the main body. 70 The length of each of the convex fasteners 71 is approximately 70 to 80 percent of the width of the fastener 71, and the lengths of the fasteners 71 and 71 are almost the same. 70 The concave fasteners 71 are arranged so as to coincide with each other in the width direction. Between these concave fasteners 71, there is provided a space equivalent to the width dimension of the concave fasteners 71 themselves. 70 The outer fabric 51, the urethane, and the lining fabric 52 are sewn together by flat stitching.

[0035] Main unit 70 The area of ​​about 11 cm inside from the beginning of the winding at 1S is the area of ​​this hand and foot protection device. 50 The overlapping portion 70a is the overlapping portion 70a of the present hand and foot protection device. 50 When the main body is attached to this part, 70 It is assumed that the end of the winding, i.e., the part where the cloth tape 81 is installed, will be overlapped. 50 When the hand and foot protection device is worn, if the cloth tape 81 is located outside the overlapping portion 70a, i.e., outside the winding start end 1S, 50 The size of the device itself does not correspond to the size of the part to be worn by the person requiring care, so it is better to change to a larger size.

[0036] Main unit 70The detachable fastening area 70b in which the multiple concave fasteners 71 are installed is a detachable fastening part 70b described later. 60 The main body of the convex fastener 61 in 70 The detachable fixing portion 70b is configured to be approximately twice the width dimension of the detachable fixing portion 70a. 60 If the convex fastener 61 is fixed and the wearing state is stable, the hand and foot protection equipment 50 The function of the above can be exerted.

[0037] The detachable fixing part 60 A convex fastener 61 is attached to the back surface of the lining 52. 60 The convex fastener 61 may be an integral fastener having a whole shape of a mountain, or may be a fastener made of two linear pieces of material. The convex fastener 61 is a detachable fastener. 60 The outer fabric 51, the quilting core, and the lining fabric 52 are sewn together. 70 It is also possible to sew the end portions of the side portions together, including the fabric tape 81. In this embodiment, the convex fastener 61 is of a length that does not reach the fabric tape 81.

[0038] The hand and foot protection device constructed in this way 50 The following explains how the device is attached to the lower legs of a person requiring care. 70 Start wrapping the tape around the lower leg from the end 1S. Then, 70 Removable fixing part in 60 side end of the main body 70 In the state where the detachable fixing part is overlapped with the overlapping part 70a of the 60 The convex fastener 61 is fixed to the concave fastener 71. At this time, the detachable fastening portion 60 By pulling in the direction of winding, the main body 70 Tension is applied to the hand and foot protection device body. 50In addition, if the convex fastener 61 is fixed to at least two concave fasteners 71 in the attachment / detachment fixing area 70b, the hand / foot protection device can be securely attached. 50 That is, in the detachable fixing range 70b, the detachable fixing part 60 9. If the convex fastener 61 is fixed to the two concave fasteners 71 on the left side of FIG. 9, or the two concave fasteners 71 on the right side of FIG. 9, the hand and foot protection device 50 This hand and foot protection device can be stably fixed. 50 According to the present invention, it is possible to obtain substantially the same functions and effects as the hand and foot protection device of the above embodiment, and the detachable fixing part 60 The fixed position of the main body 70 Even if the plate is slightly misaligned in the width direction, it can be securely fixed.
