[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a shoulder stool which is hung from the shoulder to the chest of a human, and more particularly to a shoulder stool which is hung from the shoulder of a bedridden sick person.

[0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Patients admitted to a hospital usually wear pajamas. This pajama is made generously so that the patient does not pinch when sleeping. The pajama's neck is also made with plenty of room. However, since there is a gap around the neck of such pajamas, the skin is exposed and becomes cold in winter or the like, and even in summer the air conditioner cools down.

[0003] Particularly, in a patient who has a tracheostomy and wears a ventilator, or a patient who cannot wear or remove a sewn garment by himself, even if the neck circumference is exposed and it is cold, he / she puts on his / her own gown. Or hang a towel. Especially in patients who have a tracheostomy and a ventilator,
In order to prevent accidents, some people do not place a blanket or cloth around the neck.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is directed to a chest covering portion for covering a human chest, a shoulder covering portion formed on the chest covering portion for covering both shoulders of a human, and a space between the shoulder covering portion. And a neck edge formed along a human neck.

[0005] Thereby, the gap around the neck of the pajamas can be closed, and the neck circumference can be warmed to prevent cold or cold. In addition, it is possible to keep the pajamas clean by preventing the drip solution from dropping on the pajamas around the neck and preventing the juice of the food from sticking to the pajamas. Furthermore, even if a ventilator is worn on the throat, the patient can be protected from cold or cold by covering the patient's neck, neck, shoulders, and chest without any adverse effects such as closing the ventilator.

The present invention also provides a short band connected to one of the shoulder covers and a long band connected to the other of the shoulder covers, the long band being shorter than the short band. The long band and the short band are detachably connected to the side of the human neck.

[0007] Then, the long band and the short band can be connected beside the patient's neck without raising the patient's head. Therefore, the troublesome work of raising the patient's head and connecting the long band and the short band behind the neck of the patient is not required. Therefore, even if the patient is bedridden, the shoulder stool can be easily attached to and detached from the patient.

Further, according to the present invention, the surface of the shoulder and stool is made of a cloth having an antibacterial action or a bactericidal action. Therefore, it prevents the propagation of various bacteria and bacteria, completely kills various bacteria and bacteria, prevents hospital-acquired infections, and keeps the neck of patients who are liable to become dirty with drip drops or meal juices clean.

Therefore, it is possible to prevent the lower side of the shoulder and stool from being turned up, and it is possible to reliably prevent the skin around the neck from being exposed and becoming cold in winter or the like, or to be cooled by the cool air of the heat air conditioner. This is especially effective for bedridden patients. In addition, since the lower side of the shoulder stool is not turned up, the shoulder stool does not cover the face of a bedridden patient.

[0011] The patients mentioned here include not only humans with ventilators, patients and sick persons who are hospitalized, but also bedridden elderly people, patients and sick persons, hospitalized care recipients, and rehabilitation at home. Nursing care recipients, other care recipients, newborns, healthy individuals, etc.

[0012]

1 and 2 show the front and back sides of a shoulder strap. This shoulder stool is almost square,
The pieces of cloth are formed by being overlapped from the front and back and sewn. The lower half of this square is the breast cover 1, which covers the sleeping human breast. Shoulder covers 2, 2 are integrally formed on the upper side of the chest cover 1, and the shoulder covers 2, 2 cover both shoulders of a human. The upper edges of the shoulder covers 2 and 2 are inclined slightly downward toward the outside, and are aligned with the shoulder line.

The chest cover 1 and the shoulder covers 2 and 2
Can close the gap around the neck of the patient's pajamas and warm up the neck to protect against cold. In addition, it is possible to keep the pajamas clean by preventing the drip solution or the like from dropping on the pajamas around the neck or from sticking to the juice of the meal.

The upper center of the shoulder stool is curved downward and recessed to form a neck edge 3, and the neck edge 3 is curved between the shoulder covers 2, 2 to form a "U" shape. The curve of the neck edge 3 is in line with the curve of the human neck, and as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the human neck enters the neck edge 3 and the neck edge 3 3 is formed along the human neck.

The neck portion 3 is made of two "J" -shaped band-shaped cloths, and these two "J" -shaped band-shaped cloths are arranged to face each other. The above-mentioned "U" -shaped neck edge 3 is formed by suturing between the two overlapping cloths. The lower ends of the two “J” -shaped band-shaped cloths at the neck edge 3 are sharp, and flare portions 4 and 4 are formed. This sharp direction is directed outward, and the length of the inner edge is longer than the length of the outer edge of the curved neck edge 3, which is opposite to the normal.

Since the length of the inner edge of the flares 4 and 4 is longer than the length of the outer edge, the flares 4 and 4 are easy to bend even when they come into contact with the neck and have a flexible flare shape. It can be flexibly brought into contact with the neck. The flare parts 4, 4 are superimposed on each other, so that even if the flare parts 4, 4 abut on the human neck or the tube of the ventilator, this contact is made flexible and the flare parts 4, 4 and the neck edge Part 3 is completely turned up.

A short band portion 5 is sewn to one of the shoulder cover portions 2 and 2 and connected thereto, and projects into the neck edge portion 3 from above the inside of the neck edge portion 3. This short band portion 5 has a “U” shape,

The periphery is sewn with a thread 9 sandwiched between the overlapping cloths. The weight per unit area of the weight portion 7 is several times to multiple times the weight per unit area of the chest cover portion 1 or the shoulder cover portions 2 and 2. The weight portion 7 prevents the lower side of the shoulder stool from being turned up, so that the skin around the neck is exposed to prevent it from becoming cold in winter and the like, and from being cooled by the cool air of the heat air conditioner. it can. This is especially effective for bedridden patients.

Further, fixing portions 8 are provided which protrude outward from both ends of the lower edge of the chest cover portion 1. This fixing part 8,
Numeral 8 denotes a triangular shape of the cloth, and the back cloth of the chest covering portion 1 is extended in a triangular shape, and the edges are folded back and sewn. When the fixing portions 8 and 8 are pushed into the back of the human, or the fixing portions 8 and 8 themselves become weights and pull the end of the chest cover portion 1, the lower side of the shoulder stool is turned up. Is prevented. As a result, it is possible to reliably prevent the skin around the neck from being exposed and getting cold in winter or the like, or from being cooled by the cool air of the heat air conditioner. This is especially effective for bedridden patients.

A weight is sometimes connected to the belt-shaped fixing portions 8, 8 to be connected thereto. As a result, the lower side of the shoulder and stool is prevented from being turned up, and the skin around the neck is exposed, so that it is possible to reliably prevent the skin from getting cold in winter or the like, or from being cooled by the cool air of a heat air conditioner. This is especially effective for bedridden patients. The weight portion 7, the fixing portions 8, 8 may be a leather band, a cloth band, a wire band, a metal band, a resin band, a paper band made of a shape memory alloy or a shape memory resin, or the like.

The cloth on the front side and the cloth on the back side of the chest covering portion 1 and the shoulder covering portions 2 and 2 are different from each other. The fabric on the surface has an antibacterial or bactericidal action. Therefore, it prevents the propagation of various bacteria and bacteria, completely kills various bacteria and bacteria, prevents hospital-acquired infections, and keeps the neck of patients who are liable to become dirty with drip drops or meal juices clean. You can also.

The cloth on the back of the chest cover 1 and the shoulder covers 2 and 2 has a warming action or a warming action.
Therefore, the patient's chest, shoulders, neck, and neck can be gradually warmed to prevent the cold in winter, and the air in the air conditioner in summer can be improperly cooled to prevent the cold.

Also, the neck edge 3 and the flares 4, 4
Is made of the same cloth as the surface cloth having the antibacterial action or the bactericidal action. However, it may be made of the same cloth as the cloth on the back surface having a heat retaining action or a heating action. The long band portion 6, the short band portion 5, and the fixing portions 8, 8 are made of the same cloth as the cloth on the back surface having the heat retaining action or the heating action. However, it may be made of the same cloth as the surface cloth having an antibacterial action or a bactericidal action.

It is not necessary to have both sides with just a sheet.

In addition, the front and back surfaces of the shoulder strap are
Antibacterial action, bactericidal action, deodorant action, deodorant action, heat retaining action,
Since the actions of the heating action, the moisture absorption action, and the moisture prevention action are different, it is possible to selectively use the action that is better to act outward on the human body and the action that is better to act inward.

The cloth on the front side and the cloth on the back side of the shoulder stool have different surface shapes, surface patterns and / or surface colors, so that the front and back sides are not mistaken when worn. For example, the surface shape of the cloth on the front side is glossy and smooth, the surface shape of the cloth on the back side is rough, etc. The surface pattern of the fabric on the back side is printed with a design letter of `` back '' or no pattern, the surface color of the fabric on the front side is dark color, etc.The surface color of the fabric on the back side is bright color etc. It is. Therefore, it is not necessary to confuse the above operation with the outward direction and the inward direction.

As the cloth having the antibacterial action or the bactericidal action, an epicomodo-treated cloth is used.
A safety antibacterial agent and a quaternary ammonium salt-based antibacterial agent are used to destroy the methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) cell wall attached to the cloth surface and completely eliminate the growth function of the bacterium. This methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is notorious for causing nosocomial infections in hospitals. As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that the epicomodo-treated cloth suppressed growth and killed not only methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus but also other Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and O157. Was done.

As the cloth having the antibacterial action or the bactericidal action, a cloth which has been subjected to an antibacterial function treatment or a bactericidal function treatment and sold by Shinshu Ceramics Co., Ltd. may be used in some cases. The treatment agent having an antibacterial effect used in this cloth is a patent "No. 2963" obtained by Shinshu Ceramics Co., Ltd.
657. The antibacterial action of this cloth is caused by a combination of a photocatalyst composed of an optical semiconductor powder and a metal powder and an adsorbent such as a ceramic powder, as described in the aforementioned Japanese Patent No. 2963657.

In particular, sterilization and antibacterial are performed by the photocatalytic action of the photosemiconductor powder. This photocatalytic action is generated as a chemical action by an electrochemical cell in which one electrode is a photosemiconductor ceramic, which is a photosemiconductor powder, and the other electrode is a metal. As such an optical semiconductor powder, TiO2,
CdS, CdSe, WO3, Fe2O3, SrTiO3,
KNbO3 or the like is used, and as the metal powder, gold, silver,
Various metal powders such as platinum and copper are used. Further, as an adsorbing material, ceramic powder such as apatite (apatite), zeolite or sepiolite, activated carbon, and a material containing silk fiber are used.

Bacteria, viruses, mold or malodorous substances, harmful substances and the like are first adsorbed and held on the adsorbing material. Thereafter or simultaneously, bacteria, viruses, molds, and the like are killed or reduced by photocatalysis by the photo-semiconductor powder and the metal powder that have been irradiated with light, and malodorous substances and the like are decomposed. Furthermore, even in the case of those that are not adsorbed, by photocatalysis,
A growth (proliferation) prevention and repellent effect can be obtained.

As the cloth having the heat retaining action or the warming action, a yanron cloth or the like is used, and this cloth radiates far-infrared rays and warms the patient's body. This far infrared ray penetrates deeply into the human body, and can warm the body from the inside. Therefore, it is also effective for treating hypertension and heart disease. Experiments have confirmed that this fabric can suppress and kill methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, as well as other Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. . Thus, the fabric also has an antibacterial or bactericidal action.

A cloth called "Dismel" (trade name, manufactured by Toyobo Co., Ltd.) (or Anon (registered trademark)) is sometimes used for the shoulder pad. This cloth is described in Japanese Utility Model Patent No. 3056573 or No. 30613324 in which Koken Co., Ltd. and the like are the right holders. Used for This dismel is an acrylate fiber ammonia deodorant material. That is, pH
A carboxylic group is attached to a nonwoven fabric containing a crosslinked acrylic fiber having a buffering ability (ability to reduce a pH change). When ammonia (NH3) acts on the carboxylic group (COOH), odorless odor is formed by ionic bonding. The generation of ammonium carboxylate (COOHNH4) removes the smell of ammonia. This cloth has a deodorizing effect or a deodorizing effect.

Further, a cloth having a moisture-absorbing action or a moisture-proof action may be used for the shoulder and stool in some cases. The cloth allows fine water particles, such as human evaporated sweat, to pass through, but does not allow coarse water particles, such as food juice, infusions, and spilled water, to pass through. The woven gap of the cloth having the moisture absorbing or moisture proof action allows the fine water particles to permeate but does not allow the coarse water particles to permeate.

In this case, Rabo hemp cloth is sometimes used for the shoulder and breastplate. This Rabo hemp begins to emit far-infrared rays when the temperature of the contacting person becomes 35 degrees or more,
It is also effective for treating hypertension and heart disease. This Rabo hemp is excellent in air permeability and durability, and has an antibacterial action or a bactericidal action. Further, a cloth impregnated with hiba oil having an antibacterial action or a bactericidal action is sometimes used for the shoulder stool.

The above-mentioned cloth is excellent in durability, does not change its effect even after washing, and is gentle on human skin. Since this shoulder stool only covers a person's chest, shoulders, neck, and neck, it can be worn irrespective of the size of the person, such as shoulder width and neck thickness. In addition, when the shoulder strap is mounted, it is only necessary to connect the long band portion 6 and the short band portion 5, so that the mounting operation becomes easy. Further, when the shoulder / chest is detached, it is only necessary to release the connection between the long band portion 6 and the short band portion 5, so that the detaching operation becomes easy.
