Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a hanging net type foot pillow for relieving fatigue in the legs. [Background technology]

[0002] Generally, leg fatigue is often caused by poor blood circulation in the lower limbs. In particular, the contraction of the calf muscles plays an important role in circulating blood in the lower limbs against gravity to the heart. However, when the calf muscles weaken, blood stagnates in the lower limbs, which causes leg fatigue.

[0003] A known method for alleviating this leg fatigue is to use a foot pillow, as disclosed in Patent Document 1. As mentioned above, the main cause of leg fatigue is blood stagnation in the lower limbs, and by using a foot pillow to point the toes upward, it is possible to take advantage of the effect of gravity and prevent blood stagnation.

[0017] A hanging net type leg pillow 1 according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figs.

[0018] As shown in Fig. 1, the hanging net type leg pillow 1 mainly comprises a support part 11, a base part 12, a cylindrical part 13, a columnar part 14, and a net part 15. Each part will be explained below. [Strut part 11]

[0019] The support pillar 11 is a substantially cylindrical member as shown in Fig. 2, and is supported by the base 12 so as to be substantially perpendicular to the installation surface as shown in Fig. 1. The support pillar 11 has a circular hole at the top as shown in Fig. 2, and by inserting the cylindrical portion 13 into this hole as shown in Fig. 1, the cylindrical portion 13 can be installed between two support pillars 11.

[0020] The support pole 11 has a telescopic mechanism (similar to that used in trekking poles, not shown) that can adjust the overall length as desired by fitting multiple cylindrical members together coaxially and allowing them to slide relative to one another, and can be extended or retracted within a range of 50 to 80 cm. This allows the height of the cylindrical portion 13 to be adjusted.

[0021] The form of the support part 11 is not limited to the above. The material of the support part 11 is also not particularly limited, but a highly durable material such as metal is preferable. The fixing means after adjusting the length of the extension mechanism is also not particularly limited, and existing twist lock mechanisms, lever lock mechanisms, push button mechanisms, etc. can be applied. [Base part 12]

[0022] The base 12 is a substantially rectangular parallelepiped member as shown in Fig. 3. The base 12 has a circular hole on the top surface, and by inserting the support 11 into the hole as shown in Fig. 1, the support 11 is supported so as to be substantially perpendicular to the installation surface.

[0023] The form of the base 12 is not limited to those described above. The material of the base 12 is also not particularly limited, but a highly durable material such as metal is preferred. The size of the base 12 is also not particularly limited, but to ensure the stability of the hanging net-type foot pillow 1, it is preferable that the long side of the base 12 is 50 cm or more and the short side is 10 cm or more longer than the diameter of the support 11. [Cylindrical portion 13]

[0024] As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the cylindrical portion 13 is a substantially cylindrical member, and has a hole 131, an opening 132, and a recess 133.

[0025] Moreover, the cylindrical portion 13 has an extension mechanism (not shown) similar to that of the support portion 11. However, in the hanging net type foot pillow 1, the columnar portion 14 is inserted into the hole 131 of the cylindrical portion 13 and is configured to be movable in the longitudinal and circumferential directions of the cylindrical portion 13, so the extension mechanism of the cylindrical portion 13 is applied so as not to narrow the movable range of the columnar portion 14. As a result, the cylindrical portion 13 is extendable within a range of 80 to 150 cm, and the length can be adjusted to suit the environment (for example, the size of a bed) in which the hanging net type foot pillow 1 is installed.

[0026] The form of the cylindrical portion 13 is not limited to the above. The material of the cylindrical portion 13 is also not particularly limited, but a material that does not easily cause friction in relation to the columnar portion 14 is preferable. This is because noise is less likely to be generated when the columnar portion 14 moves inside the cylindrical portion 13. <Hole 131>

[0027] The hole 131 is a hole provided along the longitudinal direction of the cylindrical portion 13 as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, and the columnar portion 14 is inserted into the hole 131 as shown in FIG.

[0028] The size of the hole 131 is not particularly limited, but it is preferably large enough to allow the columnar portion 14 to move smoothly inside. <Opening 132>

[0029] The opening 132 is an approximately rectangular hole extending from the side of the cylindrical portion 13 to the hole portion 131 as shown in FIG. 4, and is a hole for allowing the mesh portion 15 attached to the cylindrical portion 14 inserted into the hole portion 131 to exit to the outside.

[0030] The size of the opening 132 is not particularly limited as long as it is large enough to allow the mesh portion 15 to pass through but not allow the columnar portion 14 to pass through. <Recess 133>

[0031] 4 and 5, the recesses 133 are two recesses for placing the lower legs, and are arranged symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal direction of the cylindrical portion at positions on the side of the cylindrical portion 13 opposite the positions where the openings 132 are provided. The length of each of the recesses 133 in the longitudinal direction of the cylindrical portion 13 is about 15 cm.

[0032] As a result, the hanging net type leg pillow 1 can be used as a massage tool by placing the lower leg on the recess 133 and stimulating it with its own weight.

[0033] The form of recess 133 is not limited to the above and can be changed as appropriate. For example, recess 133 may be provided with an uneven surface so as to provide a stronger stimulation when used as a massage tool. [Cylindrical part 14]

[0034] The columnar portion 14 is a substantially cylindrical member having a mesh portion 15 on the side surface thereof. The columnar portion 14 is inserted into the hole 131 of the cylindrical portion 13 and is configured to be movable in the longitudinal and circumferential directions of the cylindrical portion 13.

[0035] The size of columnar portion 14 is not particularly limited, but is preferably large enough to allow smooth movement within hole 131, taking into consideration the sizes of cylindrical portion 13 and hole 131, and the recess of recess 133. Specifically, the length in the longitudinal direction is preferably 20 to 30 cm, and the diameter is preferably about 3 cm smaller than the diameter of cylindrical portion 13.

[0036] Furthermore, the material of the columnar portion 14 is not particularly limited, but a material that does not easily cause friction in relation to the cylindrical portion 13 is preferable. This is because this makes it less likely that noise will be generated when the columnar portion 14 moves inside the cylindrical portion 13. [Amibe 15]

[0037] The net portion 15 is a net for placing the lower leg portion, and is attached to the side of the cylindrical portion 14 and disposed outside the cylindrical portion 13 through the opening 132.

[0038] The mesh portion 15 is a "mesh" and therefore has flexibility that allows it to fit the lower leg and follow the movement of the lower leg to some extent. [Effects of the Hanging Net Foot Pillow 1]

[0039] Conventional foot pillows such as that disclosed in Patent Document 1 have a fixed position for the component on which the lower leg is placed. Therefore, if the position of the foot moves, for example, by turning over in bed, the foot will come off the foot pillow, making it difficult to use while sleeping.

[0040] In contrast, the hanging net-type leg pillow 1 of the present invention can follow the movement of the lower leg to some extent by using a flexible "net" as the member on which the lower leg is placed (net part 15). Furthermore, the columnar part 14 to which the net part 15 is attached can also move in the longitudinal direction and circumferential direction of the cylindrical part 13, so the range of movement of the net part 15 can be expanded.

[0041] That is, the hanging net type leg pillow 1 can follow the movement of the lower leg over a wide range by the movement of the net part 15 and the movement of the cylindrical part 14 to which the net part 15 is attached. As a result, the use of the hanging net type leg pillow 1 according to the invention is not limited to use when awake, but can also be used when sleeping.

[0042] Furthermore, the hanging net type leg pillow according to the present invention has two recesses, and can be used as a massage tool by placing the lower leg on the recesses and stimulating it with the body's own weight. [About this application]
