Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve problems wherein the blood flow force is impaired by the arteriosclerosis, deterioration of the cardiac function, etc. caused by a decline in physical strength especially for the aged while use of underpants and socks is indispensable for human life, wherein the ankle is medically considered as a region to most often swell, and wherein various trouble occurs if the ankle is tightly compressed by a ribbed part of the underpants or socks while the underpants or especially socks are indispensable in daily life. <P>SOLUTION: An external protection plate of the ankle edema blood-flow protector has such strength as durable against the circumferential pressure of the ribbed part of the underpants or socks. First, a thermal fabric is freely and loosely wound around the external protection plate for forming an appropriate gap to the skin of the ankle, and further, the external protection plate is fixed by a Magic Tape (R) slightly thicker than the ankle, so that the pressure of the ribbed part is completely blocked and the blood flow is retained. As a result, development of edema is naturally prevented, and the user can live a comfortable life. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT

Description

In the human body, poor blood flow to the lower limbs causes water circulation failure due to various causes such as decreased cardiac function, arteriosclerosis, kidney disease, blood flow failure, and the ankle swelling phenomenon is most prominent.
In particular, wearing socks and trousers is essential in daily life. As is well known, there are rubber knitted portions on the socks and trousers so that the ankles can be tightened.

Human daily life is mostly standing work, chair sitting work and blood flow condition of the ankle is not good, and if the ankle is tightened with rubber braid, the blood flow to the toes is naturally obstructed If it swells, it compresses the blood vessels, and moisture accumulates, causing repeated swelling and worsening conditions.Furthermore, it is related to the cold feeling of the legs and fingertips, mental burden, discomfort, difficulty walking, reduced efficiency, etc. It becomes a big obstacle.

For those who suffer from swelling, there are people who cut and use the rubber of the rubber knitted part under the socks and trousers, but this is not a complete measure. As a countermeasure, long socks for women are sold, but it is difficult to put on and take off, so it is generally not suitable.

A general ankle supporter is intended to reinforce ankles and shin joints, and is completely different from the present invention, and is not useful for preventing swelling of ankle blood flow inhibition.
An elderly person, a general woman, a morbidly swollen patient, and the like provide an ankle swelling blood flow protective device that can be worn with socks and pants with peace of mind.
The following patent publications all aim at fixing and fastening the ankle.
The present invention aims to block the contraction pressure on the ankles of the socks and trousers underneath the rubber ankle, protect the swelling blood flow, interpose the gap between the ankle skin and the warm fabric, and the structural purposes are completely opposite.

Japanese Patent Publication No. 2009-057651 Japanese Patent Publication No. 2004-373483 Patent Publication No. 11-342143

The present invention relates to ankle blood flow inhibition and swelling prevention, such as external pressure on the ankle, for example, prevention of swelling due to ankle blood flow failure due to tightening by a rubber knitted portion of the trouser socks and socks, rubber pressure on the trousers and socks by protecting the already ankle Each can be worn with peace of mind.

To prevent mental distress due to swelling, cold feeling of the lower extremity fingertips, deterioration of physical ability, deterioration of symptoms due to repeated repetition, difficulty walking, etc., a device that completely cuts off the pressure on the ankle and the outer peripheral pressure is important. The part that is medically susceptible to swelling of the human body structure is the ankle.

Ankle protection plate includes a large number of air hole plates, strength has hardness that does not deform due to the restraining pressure of the rubber knitted part of the socks and the rubber knitted part of the trousers, ankle protective thin plate of rubber, synthetic rubber, artificial leather, soft resin plate, etc. Fit the shape of the ankle to create a slight gap with the skin and wrap it gently through the heating fabric. Sewing or bonding the wide concave tape tape to the outer edge to adjust both ends, short convex tape tape Is sewed or bonded to the inner end of the opposite side, and the concave surface tape short width is sewed or bonded to the middle of the ankle protection plate deployment plane length.
The gap between the ankle swelling blood flow protection device and the skin is cold in winter, and the skin is warm as the skin warming fabric.For example, felt, far-infrared processed fabric, heating fabric is 1 cm each from the vertical dimension of the ankle protection device It is 1.5 cm long and can be easily attached to and detached from the protective equipment by sewing or adhering a short convex tape at the center of the long side, and it can be wrapped around the ankle skin without restraining force, keeping the ankle warm and comfortable. In this case, it can be changed to moisture-absorbing and drying fabric, linen, etc.
An ankle swelling blood flow protective device that satisfies the above conditions.

The present invention shields and protects the ankle that is most likely to swell from the pressure of sock rubber and trousers rubber, and improves the blood circulation (swelling) by interposing a heat insulating fabric on the skin, so that all socks can be worn with peace of mind.

The inner side top view of an ankle protector. The outer side top view of an ankle protector. The top view of heat insulation dough. An ankle swelling blood flow protective device is attached to the ankle, pants and socks are enlarged cross-sectional views, and the actual product becomes thinner. Sectional drawing of an ankle swelling blood flow protective device. The winding state figure of the blood flow protective device which swells to an ankle.

As shown in the figure, when wearing an anti-swelling blood flow prevention device, each person has a different ankle thickness, angle, and length. It can correspond to.
It can be applied to specially shaped ankles relatively easily.

Swelling may occur due to various causes such as care recipients, but especially ankle swelling is unavoidable. In daily life, wearing absolute socks is necessary, but there is no complete swelling countermeasure.
Loose rubber socks currently on sale, tight socks, etc. are not adaptable to each person, the cause of swelling is the retention of moisture, which can not be handled only by loosening, if it is restrained even a little, it causes cold circulation due to poor blood circulation Related to feeling.
Ankle swelling blood flow protection device can be easily worn, ankle compression is excellent and heat insulation effect is excellent, all socks can be used, convenient and healthy, easy and mass production, especially suitable for protecting the ankle swelling of the elderly It is.

The rubber strength of the trousers and socks is almost constant for each manufacturer. Some parts that weaken the rubber knitting are not easy to slip off. Elastic high socks increase the wearing strength. It is difficult to put on and take off and is unsuitable for pathological patients, and is expensive for general socks users. difficult.
There are many ankle protectors, but they are completely incompatible with protecting ankle blood flow and preventing swelling.

The important point for ankle conservation is to guard the pants and socks without applying the pressure of the rubber knitting part to the ankle and to use the rubber knitting. It is easy to change both for summer moisture absorption and drying.
