  DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Embodiments of an animal affected area protective dropout cover according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a developed view of an animal affected area protective fallout prevention cover, and FIG. 2 is a schematic view when the animal affected area protection fallout prevention cover is attached to an animal. FIGS. 3-6 is the figure which attached the affected part protection fall-off prevention cover for animals to the animal. FIG. 6 shows an animal diseased part protection / fall-off prevention cover for an animal in which the cylindrical cover part is a sock type, which will be described later. Except for the configuration on the tip side of the cylindrical cover part, the other structure is a cylindrical cover part described later. It is the same structure as the thing of FIGS. 1-5 which the front-end | tip opened.

  In FIGS. 1-6, the animal affected part protective fall-off prevention cover is a fixed article E such as a cast or bandage treated on any one leg C (in this embodiment, the left front leg) of the extremities of animal A. A leg-covering cylindrical cover part 1 having a size that can be covered, a length that can integrally extend from the upper end 1a of the cylindrical cover part 1 and circulate around the trunk B of the animal A, and , A tape-shaped trunk cover 2 having a width b larger than the diameter of the cylindrical cover 1, and the trunk cover 2, and one leg C (hereinafter corresponding to the figure) An insertion hole 3 through which the left and right opposite legs D (described below with “right front leg D” corresponding to the drawings) can be inserted, and an end 2a of the trunk covering portion 2 Engaging member 5 provided on the side and an engaging member provided on the outer surface of the cylindrical covering portion 1 and detachably engaged with the engaging member 5 It is equipped with a.

  The cylindrical covering portion 1 and the trunk covering portion 2 are integrally formed from the same flexible material such as cloth. This flexible material may be any material that prevents the fixed article E from being soiled when the entire fixed article E such as a cast or bandage is covered. Various materials such as chemical fibers and natural fibers can be used. Moreover, you may use what gave air permeability, elasticity, and waterproofing suitably to this flexible material with the use. In this embodiment, knitted fabric is used. Moreover, the cylindrical cover part 1 and the trunk cover part 2 can be made into the suitable magnitude | size and shape suitable for the kind and size of an animal.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, the cylindrical cover 1 has a size that can protect and cover the entire fixing device E such as a cast or a bandage, so that the front end side of the left front leg C is separated from the cylindrical cover 1. Further, as in another embodiment shown in FIG. 6, a so-called sock type in which the lower end 1 b of the cylindrical covering portion 1 is closed so as to wrap the entire left front leg C may be used. In the case of the sock type, it goes without saying that the length of the cylindrical covering portion 1 is a length that encloses the entire left front leg C. Moreover, when it is set as a sock type | mold, it is good to provide the slip stopper 1c in the lower end of the cylindrical cover part 1 in order to make walking easy. As the slip stopper, an appropriate one such as a number of protrusions or tapes shown in FIG. 6 is adopted. Furthermore, a stretchable material or a belt-like rubber body may be provided as a tightening means for tightening the opening around the upper end 1a and the lower end 1b of the cylindrical cover 1 that are opened.

  The trunk covering portion 2 is formed in a tape shape having an upper end 2a and side portions 2b, 2b, the width b of the trunk covering portion 2 is larger than the inner diameter d of the tubular covering portion 1, and the tubular covering portion 1 Since the trunk covering portion 2 is integrally formed, a folding portion 2c is formed on the lower side of the side portions 2b and 2b toward the upper end 1a of the cylindrical covering portion 1 that opens.

  The cylindrical cover portion 1 and the trunk cover portion 2 can be integrally manufactured by the following method, for example. As one of the methods, as shown in FIG. 7, a cylindrical material 11 having a flexible inner diameter d made of cloth or the like is prepared. The length t of the cylindrical material 11 is substantially equal to the sum of the length t1 of the cylindrical covering portion 1 and the length t2 of the trunk covering portion 2, and its inner diameter d is equal to the inner diameter d of the cylindrical covering portion 1. equal.

  The cylindrical material 11 prepared in this way is vertically protected from the opened one end 11a by a length t2 that is substantially the same as the length of the trunk covering portion 2, that is, on the other end 11b side of the tubular material 11 with leg protection. The cylindrical part 11d used as the cylindrical cover part 1 is cut to a length that leaves the cylindrical part 11d (cut line 11c), and the cut cylindrical part is spread as a widened part 11e on the tape. The spread part 11e becomes the trunk covering part 2 shown in FIG. 1, and the remaining cylindrical part 11d becomes the cylindrical covering part 1 shown in FIG. Since the width b of the trunk covering portion 2 is larger than the inner diameter d of the tubular covering portion 1, when the tubular portion 11e is expanded, the side portion 2b of the trunk covering portion 2 is shown in FIG. On the lower side of 2b, a fold 2c is formed toward the upper end 1a of the cylindrical cover 1 that opens.

  In this method, when the front end side of the left front leg C protrudes from the cylindrical covering portion 1, the cylindrical material 11 is used in which one end 11a and the other end 11b are both open. In the case of configuring the sock mold as described above, the one with the one end 11a opened and the other end 11b closed in advance may be used, or the one with the one end 11a and the other end 11b opened may be used. After the formation, the other end 11b may be appropriately closed.

  In another method, as shown in FIG. 8, one flexible rectangular material 12 made of cloth or the like is prepared. The length t of the rectangular material 12 is substantially equal to the sum of the length t1 of the cylindrical covering portion 1 and the length t2 of the trunk covering portion 2, and its width b is a width that can form the cylindrical portion 12d having the inner diameter d. It is said.

  The both sides of the rectangular member 12 thus prepared on the other end 12b side are bent by a length t1 that is substantially the same as the length of the cylindrical cover 1 and joined by appropriate means (shown as a joint 12c in FIG. 8). Thus, a cylindrical portion 12d (indicated by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 8) is formed. As a result, the non-joined portion 12 e to which the rectangular material 12 is not joined constitutes the trunk covering portion 2, and the tubular portion 12 d joined in a tubular shape constitutes the tubular covering portion 1. Since the width b of the trunk covering portion 2 is larger than the inner diameter d of the tubular covering portion 1, as shown in FIG. 1, there is a tubular shape on the lower side of the side portions 2b and 2b of the trunk covering portion 2. A fold 2c is formed toward the upper end 1a of the cover 1 that opens.

  In this method, when the cylindrical cover 1 is configured so that the front end side of the left front leg C protrudes from the cylindrical cover 1, the end 12b of the rectangular material 12 is not joined, and the above-described sock mold is configured. In this case, after the cylindrical portion 12d is formed, the end portion 12b may be appropriately closed.

  The insertion hole 3 provided in the trunk covering portion 2 attaches the cylindrical covering portion 1 to the animal's left front leg C, and opens the trunk covering portion 2 from the chest side of the animal A while expanding the folding portions 2c and 2c. When wound on the back side, the right front leg D is drilled at a position where it can be worn through the trunk covering portion 2. As a result, the portion of the trunk covering portion 2 between the opening end 1a of the cylindrical covering portion and the insertion hole 3 becomes the chest side covering portion 2d, and between the insertion hole 3 and the end portion 2a of the trunk covering portion 2 It becomes the back side cover part 2e. In the above-described method, the insertion hole 3 may be drilled in advance at the stage of the material 11 or 12, or may be drilled after the cylindrical cover 1 and the trunk cover 2 are manufactured. Also good.

  The engaging member 4 is provided on the outer surface in the vicinity of the upper end 1a side of the cylindrical covering portion 1, and the engaging member 5 is provided in the vicinity of the end portion 2a side of the trunk covering portion 2 and is detachably engaged with each other. It is like that. As long as the engaging member 4 and the engaging member 5 can be detachably engaged with each other, appropriate ones such as a hook-and-loop fastener, a hook, and a button can be used. In FIG. 1, a hook-and-loop fastener is used.

  As described above, the animal-affected-part protective fall-off prevention cover made of the material is made of a material such as cloth, so that it can be easily attached to the animal in order to avoid fiber loosening. Appropriate parts such as the upper end 1a and the lower end 1b of the opening 1 of the cover part, the end part 2a and the side parts 2b and 2b of the trunk cover part 2 and the edge part 3a of the insertion hole 3 are used for means such as over stitching or reverse You may make it reinforce by another appropriate reinforcement means.

  Next, a method of using the above-described animal affected part protective fall-off prevention cover for animals according to this embodiment will be described. If there is an affected part such as an injury or a fracture in the left front leg C of animal A and the affected part is fixed with a fixing device E such as a cast or bandage, a fixed product such as a cast or bandage is fixed to the left front leg C. A cylindrical cover 1 for leg protection is attached so as to cover the whole of E, and then the trunk cover 2 formed integrally with the cylindrical cover 1 is expanded with the folding parts 2c and 2c being expanded. The animal's trunk B is turned to the chest side, the animal's right front leg is inserted through the insertion hole 3 provided in the trunk covering portion 2, and the animal's chest side is covered with the chest covering portion 2d of the trunk covering portion 2. ,Protect. Thereafter, the trunk covering portion 2 is turned to the back side of the trunk B of the animal A, and the end portion 2a of the trunk covering portion 2 is provided on the outer periphery of the cylindrical covering portion 1 attached to the left front leg C. The engagement member 5 provided at the end 2a of the trunk covering portion 2 and the engagement member 4 provided at the outer periphery on the upper end 1a side of the cylindrical covering portion 1 are rotated around to the position of the engaging member 4. Engage and fasten, the back side of the animal is covered and protected by the back side cover part 2e of the trunk cover part 2, and the attachment of the animal affected part protective fallout prevention cover is completed. When detaching the animal affected part protection dropout prevention cover, the engagement between the engagement member 4 and the engagement member 5 is released, and the reverse is performed as described above.

  According to the embodiment described above, a portion fixed by a fixing device such as a cast or a bandage can be further protected, and the load on the fixing portion is reduced, the fixing device E is protected, the affected limb is adjusted, and the like. It can be performed. Further, it is possible to prevent contamination of the fixed article E, prevent contamination of the affected area, prevent contamination of the affected area, and reduce tape replacement used for the fixed article.

  Further, the cylindrical cover part 1 for protecting the leg part, the insertion hole 3 through which the other leg can be inserted, the trunk cover part 2 capable of circling the trunk of the animal, and the engaging members 4 and 5 are used for protection and fixing. Since the animal affected area protective fall prevention cover is supported by the left and right front legs C and D and the trunk B, the cover can be prevented from being displaced, and the affected area treatment can be prevented from falling off. It can be prevented and can be easily and quickly attached to and detached from an animal.

  Furthermore, the cylindrical covering portion 1 and the trunk covering portion 2 for leg protection can be integrally manufactured from a single flexible cylindrical material 11 made of cloth or the like and a single rectangular material 12 in a simple process. Therefore, the manufacturing is easy and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

  The embodiments of the present invention have been described above. However, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various design changes are possible, and any of them can be included in the present invention.
