<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a grip aid for the purpose of maintaining one's grip for a long time. <P>SOLUTION: The grip aid includes a band 1 which is attachably/detachably mounted on the wrist and a hook member 2 whose attaching position to the band 1 mounted on the wrist can be varied to an arbitrary position in the upper and lower direction of the arm. The grip aid is characterized in that the hook member 2 is composed of an axis part 2a and a bent part 2b extending laterally to the axis part, that the hook member is attached by being positioning to the band mounted on the wrist, and that the axis part 2a extends toward the finger tips along the palm of the hand while the bent part 2b is formed along the inside of the bent fingers. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

The present invention relates to a grip strength assisting tool.

There is a limit to how long human grip can last when carrying baggage. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain human grip for a long time. For this reason, a grip assisting device has been proposed in which a hook-shaped member is attached to a band attached to a wrist and a baggage is provided. These grip strength assisting tools are intended to sustain human grip strength for a long time (see Patent Document 1).

  Utility Model Registration No. 3137833

However, the above-described grip strength assisting tool can be adjusted to a condition that is just right for the thickness of the wrist of the person who uses the grip strength assisting tool when the band is worn on the wrist. It is structurally impossible to adjust the length of the finger to the length of the finger of the user. In the case of the above-described gripping force assisting tool, the saddle-shaped member is fixed to the band, and thus cannot be adjusted to a condition that is just right for the length of the finger of the person using the saddle-shaped member. This is because the saddle type member is not structured to change the attachment position of the band to an arbitrary position in the vertical direction of the arm.

The grip strength assisting device according to the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and the band that is detachably attached to the wrist and the attachment position to the band attached to the wrist can be set to any position in the vertical direction of the arm. When it is positioned and attached to a band attached to the wrist, the shaft part extends to the fingertip side along the palm of the hand, and the folded part is formed along the inside of the folded finger. Grip strength assistive device characterized by being.

According to the present invention, the attachment position of the saddle-shaped member to the band can be changed to an arbitrary position in the vertical direction of the arm, so that the grip strength can be effectively assisted.

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described by way of example with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the configuration of the grip strength assisting tool of the embodiment, FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the grip strength assisting tool of the embodiment as viewed from the front side, and FIG. FIG. 4 is an explanatory view showing a state in which the grip strength assisting tool of the embodiment is attached to the wrist.

First, the grip assisting tool will be described.
As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the grip strength assisting tool includes a band 1 that is wound around the wrist and attached to the wrist 1 and a saddle-shaped member 2 attached to the band 1. The saddle member 2 has a shaft portion 2a and a bent portion 2b.
The band 1 is configured to be fastened to the wrist with male and female adhesive cloths 1a and 1b. The saddle type member 2 fastens the male / female adhesive cloth 3b at the end 2c of the shaft 2a to the male / female adhesive cloth 1b of the band 1, and the male / female adhesive cloth 3a at the end 2c of the shaft 2a It is the structure fastened with the cloth 1a.
The shaft portion 2a and the bent portion 2b are integrally formed of a hard synthetic resin.

Next, a method for using the grip strength assisting device will be described.
As shown in FIG. 4, the bent portion 2b is brought into contact with the bent finger, and the shaft portion 2a is brought into contact with the palm of the hand to attach the belt to the wrist.
In this state, the folded finger can receive the weight of baggage or the like through the bent portion 2b.

For this reason, it is possible to assist human grip strength especially when carrying heavy baggage.
