Description

本発明は、関節サポーター用ステー及びその製造方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a joint support stay and a method of manufacturing the same.

関節部位における各種疾患、例えば変形性関節症、慢性関節リウマチ、腱鞘炎等の場合、その痛みを和らげたり、発生を防止するために、一般に関節サポーターが汎用されている。   In the case of various diseases in joint sites, such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, tendonitis, etc., joint supporters are generally used in order to relieve the pain or prevent its occurrence.

而して、斯かる関節サポーターの例として手の親指用サポーターを挙げれば、従来は、図７に示す如く、親指挿通固定用の筒状部ａと、その下方の長母指外転筋腱部及び短母指伸展筋腱部用の被覆部ｂとをサポーター生地で一体連成すると共に、装着ベルトｃを取り付けたものが既に市販されている。しかしながら、サポーター生地として強い伸縮力を有するものを用いても当該生地のみでは十分な保持固定作用は得られないのが実状であった。   Thus, as an example of such a joint supporter, a thumb supporter for a hand is given. As shown in FIG. 7, conventionally, as shown in FIG. And the covering part b for the short thumb extensor muscle tendon part are integrated with the supporter fabric, and the attachment belt c is already attached. However, even if a supporter fabric having a strong stretching force is used, a sufficient holding and fixing action cannot be obtained with the fabric alone.

そこで、前記の如きサポーターに更に板状ステーを取り付けたものも市販されているが、板状ステーが柔軟性を有する場合には、未だ満足のいく保持固定作用は得られず、他方板状ステーが硬質性の場合には、親指の動きに強い制約を受ける、と云う問題があった。   Therefore, there is a commercially available support with a plate-like stay attached to the supporter as described above. However, when the plate-like stay is flexible, a satisfactory holding and fixing action is not yet obtained, and the other plate-like stay is not obtained. When is hard, there is a problem that the movement of the thumb is strongly restricted.

また、前記の筒状部ａと被覆部ｂとをサポーター生地ではなく合成樹脂で一体成形したものも既に市販されているが、一体成形体の故に大きさが固定的でフィット性に欠ける、と云う問題があった。   In addition, a product in which the cylindrical part a and the covering part b are integrally molded with a synthetic resin instead of a supporter cloth is already on the market, but because of the integral molded body, the size is fixed and lacks fit. There was a problem.

本発明は上記の如き従来の実状と問題に鑑みてなされたものであり、十分な保持固定作用が得られることはもとより、親指等の動きにはそれほど支障がなく、しかもフィット性に優れた関節サポーターを得ることができる関節サポーター用ステーを提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of the conventional situation and problems as described above. In addition to obtaining a sufficient holding and fixing action, the joint has little trouble in movement of the thumb and the like and has excellent fit. It aims at providing the stay for joint supporters which can obtain a supporter.

本発明に係る関節サポーター用ステーは、可撓性を有する馬蹄形状のステーを、その両外側縁下部で互に捻り合わせたことを特徴とする。   The stay for a joint supporter according to the present invention is characterized in that horseshoe-shaped stays having flexibility are twisted together at lower portions of both outer edges.

また、本発明に係る関節サポーター用ステーの製造方法は、可撓性を有する馬蹄形状のステーを、当該ステーよりやや大き目に裁断した２枚のサポーター生地間に挾持せしめて縁取りをかけた後、両外側縁下部を互に捻り合わせ、その縁取り部を縫合することを特徴とする。   In addition, the joint supporter stay manufacturing method according to the present invention includes a flexible horseshoe-shaped stay sandwiched between two supporter fabrics cut to be slightly larger than the stay, and then bordered. It is characterized in that both outer edge lower portions are twisted together, and the edge portions are stitched.

本発明の関節サポーター用ステーを用いて関節サポーターを製造すれば、可撓性を有する馬蹄形状のステーが、その両外側縁下部で互に捻り合わせられている結果、親指等の挿通固定に適した形態に立体化されているので、当該サポーターは、頗るフィット性に優れると共に、ステーの捻り作用と可撓性により十分な保持固定作用が得られる一方、親指等の動きにはそれほど支障は生じない。   If the joint supporter is manufactured using the joint supporter of the present invention, the flexible horseshoe-shaped stays are twisted together at the lower part of both outer edges, so that it is suitable for insertion and fixing of the thumb and the like. The supporter is excellent in scoring fit and sufficient holding and fixing action due to the twisting action and flexibility of the stay, while the movement of the thumb etc. is not so hindered. Absent.

図１〜３は、手の親指用サポーターのステーとして好適な本発明ステーの一例を示すもので、以下該図に基いて説明する。   FIGS. 1 to 3 show an example of the stay of the present invention suitable as a stay for a thumb supporter, which will be described below with reference to FIG.

１０は、馬蹄形状の平板ステーで、可撓性を有するものであれば、その材質の如何を問わないが、例えばポリエチレン等の合成樹脂が好適に用いられる。また、その厚さも適宜選定されるが通常１〜２mmで十分である。斯かる馬蹄形状の平板ステー１０の具体的成形法もその如何を問わないが、合成樹脂板からの打ち抜き加工が簡便である。   10 is a horseshoe-shaped flat stay, and any material can be used as long as it is flexible. For example, a synthetic resin such as polyethylene is preferably used. The thickness is also selected as appropriate, but usually 1 to 2 mm is sufficient. The specific method for forming such a horseshoe-shaped flat plate stay 10 is not particularly limited, but punching from a synthetic resin plate is simple.

１１ａ，１１ｂは、平板ステー１０ａの両外側縁下部で、該部を互に捻り合わせることによって、後述の立体ステー２０を形成するものであるため、両部１１ａ，１１ｂとも同寸法の直線状とするのが捻り合わせ易さの点で望ましい。   Since 11a and 11b form the three-dimensional stay 20 mentioned later by twisting this part mutually in the lower part of the outer edge of the flat plate stay 10a, both the parts 11a and 11b are linear with the same dimensions. This is desirable in terms of ease of twisting.

２０は、立体ステーで、平板ステー１０をその両外側縁下部１１ａ，１１ｂで互に捻り合わせることによって、親指挿通固定用の筒状部２０ａと長母指外転筋腱部及び短母指伸展筋腱部用の被覆部２０ｂとから構成されている。   Reference numeral 20 denotes a three-dimensional stay, which is formed by twisting the flat plate stay 10 together at both outer edge lower portions 11a and 11b, thereby extending the tubular portion 20a for inserting and fixing the thumb, the long abductor abductor tendon and the short thumb extension. It is comprised from the coating | coated part 20b for muscle tendons.

両外側縁下部１１ａ，１１ｂの捻り合わせ部１１は、接着剤や接着テープにより直接接合したものであっても良いが、後述の実施例の如く、サポーター生地間に挾持せしめ、その縁取り部で縫合する間接接合としたものが、より優れたフィット性が得られると共に、親指の動きをよりスムースにする上で有利である。尚、サポーター生地としては、伸縮性生地、非伸縮性生地の如何を問わない。   The twisted portions 11 of the outer edge lower portions 11a and 11b may be directly joined by an adhesive or an adhesive tape, but as shown in the examples described later, they are held between the supporter fabrics and stitched at the edge portions. Such an indirect joining is advantageous in that it provides a better fit and makes the thumb move more smoothly. In addition, as a supporter fabric, it does not matter whether it is a stretchable fabric or a non-stretchable fabric.

而して、本発明に係る関節サポーター用ステーは、上記の如き立体ステー２０を最も主要な特徴としており、手の親指用サポーターはもとより、他の関節部位に装着するサポーターにも広く適用することができる。   Thus, the joint support stay according to the present invention has the three-dimensional stay 20 as the main feature as described above, and is widely applicable not only to the thumb supporter of the hand but also to the supporter attached to other joint parts. Can do.
