Abstract
Description
本発明は、就寝時等においてふくらはぎなどの筋肉が突然けいれんすることによって起こるこむら返りを防止するためのこむら返り防止サポータに関する。 The present invention relates to a non-uniformity supporter for preventing non-uniformity that occurs due to sudden jerking of muscles such as calves when sleeping.
就寝時において掛け布団の重み等によって足首が反った状態になっていると、ふくらはぎの筋肉が突然けいれんして、いわゆる「こむら返り」が起きることがある。こむら返りは、特に糖尿病や肝疾患のある人、高齢者、妊婦、スポーツ疲労の人などに起きやすいことが知られている。こむら返りが起きるとふくらはぎに激痛が生じるため、こむら返りが起きやすい人にとっては、就寝中にこむら返りが起きるのではないかと不安になり、安眠できなくなる。 If the ankle is bent due to the weight of the comforter at bedtime, the muscles of the calf may suddenly cramp and a so-called “swinging” may occur. It is known that the unevenness is likely to occur particularly in people with diabetes or liver disease, the elderly, pregnant women, and people with sports fatigue. When a crawl occurs, the calf causes severe pain, and for those who are prone to scramble, it becomes anxious that the crawl will occur during sleep, making it difficult to sleep.
このため、就寝中等にこむら返りが起きるのを防止するための器具が従来より提案されている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。 For this reason, a device has been proposed in the past for preventing unevenness during sleeping or the like (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
前記特許文献1の器具は、先端に親指挿入部を有するゴム製の紐と、この紐の基端側を固定した輪状のクッションパッドを備えており、クッションパッドを足首に巻き付けて紐の親指挿入部に足の親指を挿入することで、就寝中等に足首が反ることを抑制して、こむら返りが起きるのを防止するようにしている。 The device of Patent Document 1 includes a rubber string having a thumb insertion portion at the tip and a ring-shaped cushion pad that fixes the base end side of the string, and the cushion pad is wrapped around the ankle to insert the thumb of the string. By inserting the thumb of the toe into the part, the ankle is prevented from warping during sleeping or the like, and the occurrence of unevenness is prevented.
ところで、前記特許文献1の器具では、ゴム製の紐の親指挿入部に足の親指を挿入して、ゴムの弾性力で足の親指を甲側へ大きく反らすように保持している。このため、長時間装着すると親指だけに負担が生じ、親指の付け根部の関節に痛みが発生するおそれがある。 By the way, in the instrument of the said patent document 1, the big toe is inserted in the thumb insertion part of the rubber string, and the big toe is held so as to largely warp to the instep side by the elastic force of the rubber. For this reason, when it wears for a long time, only a thumb will be burdened and there is a possibility that pain may occur in the joint of the base of the thumb.
また、就寝中に足首に巻き付けたクッションパッドの位置がずれると、親指が紐の親指挿入部から簡単に外れるおそれがあり、就寝中におけるこむら返りの発生を安定して防止できなくなる。 In addition, if the position of the cushion pad wound around the ankle is shifted during sleeping, the thumb may easily come off from the thumb insertion portion of the string, and it is impossible to stably prevent occurrence of unevenness during sleeping.
そこで、本発明は、長時間装着しても足の親指だけに負担をかけることなく、かつ就寝中等におけるこむら返りの発生を安定して防止することができるこむら返り防止サポータを提供することを目的とする。 Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a non-uniformity prevention supporter that can stably prevent the occurrence of irregularity during sleeping or the like without placing a burden on only the big toe even when worn for a long time. .
前記目的を達成するために本発明のこむら返り防止サポータは、つま先全体から中足骨を含む足先部が挿入される足先挿入部と、前記足先挿入部の両側にそれぞれ設けた帯状のバンド部と、前記各バンド部の先端部にそれぞれ設けられ、該各バンド部の先端部同士を着脱自在に固定するための固定部材とを備え、前記足先挿入部に挿入したつま先全体から中足骨を含む足先部及び甲をすね側に適度に引き寄せるように前記各バンド部の先端側を足首側に引いて、前記各バンド部を甲の上で交差するようにして足首の両側から巻き付け、該各バンド部の先端部同士を前記各固定部材により足首の周囲に固定することを特徴としている。 In order to achieve the above object, the non-uniformity prevention supporter of the present invention includes a foot-tip insertion portion into which a foot-tip portion including a metatarsal bone is inserted from the entire toe, and a belt-like band provided on both sides of the foot-tip insertion portion. And a fixing member for removably fixing the tip portions of the respective band portions to each other, and includes a toe inserted from the entire toe insertion portion into the middle foot. Pull the tip side of each band part toward the ankle side so that the toe part including the bone and the instep are properly pulled toward the shin side, and wrap the band part from both sides of the ankle so that each band part intersects the upper side The front ends of the band portions are fixed around the ankle by the fixing members.
本発明に係るこむら返り防止サポータによれば、足先挿入部につま先全体から中足骨を含む足先部を挿入し各バンド部の先端側を足首側に引いて、各バンド部を甲の上で交差するようにして足首の周囲に巻き付けて固定することにより、足先挿入部に挿入された足先部(つま先全体から中足骨付近)及び甲がすね側に適度に引き寄せられた状態に確実に保持することができる。これにより、こむら返りの要因となる足首(甲)の反りやつま先の足裏方向への屈曲が抑えられ、安定して就寝中等におけるこむら返りの発生を防止することができる。 According to the non-uniformity prevention supporter according to the present invention, the toe portion including the metatarsal bone is inserted into the toe insertion portion from the entire toe, and the front end side of each band portion is pulled to the ankle side, and each band portion is By wrapping around the ankle so as to cross at the foot and fixing it, the toe portion inserted into the toe insertion portion (from the entire toe to the vicinity of the metatarsal bone) and the instep are appropriately pulled toward the shin side It can be held securely. Thereby, the curvature of the ankle (instep) and the bending of the toe toward the sole of the foot, which cause the unevenness, can be suppressed, and the occurrence of unevenness during sleeping can be prevented stably.
更に、足先挿入部につま先全体から中足骨を含む足先部を挿入するので、長時間使用しても足先の一部(例えば、足の親指だけ)に負担がかかることはなく、足先部に痛みが生じることはない。 Furthermore, since the toe portion including the metatarsal bone is inserted from the entire toe into the toe insertion portion, there is no burden on a part of the toe (for example, only the toe) even if it is used for a long time. There is no pain in the toes.
また、各バンド部を甲の上で交差するようにして足首の周囲に巻き付けて各固定部材で固定する構成なので、長時間使用しても足首に痛みが生じることはない。更に、各バンド部を甲の上で交差するようにして足首の周囲に巻き付けて各固定部材で固定する構成なので、こむら返り防止サポータを装着する人に応じて、足先部(つま先全体から中足骨付近)をすね側に適切な角度に引き寄せた状態に容易に調節することができ、かつ引き寄せた状態を安定して保持することができる。 In addition, since the band portions are wound around the ankle so as to cross each other on the upper and fixed by the fixing members, the ankle does not hurt even when used for a long time. In addition, each band part is wrapped around the ankle so that it intersects the upper part of the instep and fixed with each fixing member, so depending on the person wearing the non-turnback supporter, the toe part (from the entire toe to the middle foot) It is possible to easily adjust the vicinity of the bone) to the shin side at an appropriate angle, and to stably hold the pulled state.
