The directions are substantially along virtual lines A and B connecting the upper sewing portion 7 and the lower sewing portion 10 located at the oblique position. As a result, the shoulder belts 3, 4 pull the scapula through the shoulders and through the underarms, and the pull direction to reach the backrest 2 becomes a direction along the length of the shoulder belts 3, 4 It is possible to prevent additional tightening force from being applied to the trunk.

  Further, since the two shoulder belts 3 and 4 extending at intersections of the imaginary lines A and B are sewn to the backrest and their positions are fixed, the intersections of the imaginary lines A and B of the shoulder belts 3 and 4 The position O and the crossing angle θ are fixed. As a result, the position at which the shoulder belt pulls the shoulder does not shift due to the action of the upper body, and it is possible to reduce the trouble of reattachment and the like. In the present embodiment, the intersection position O of the imaginary lines A and B of the shoulder belts 3 and 4 is located at the central portion of the backrest 2.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the belt body 8 is disposed so that the two front and back belt fabrics 4a and 4b overlap with each other, and the periphery of the belt fabrics 4a and 4b is sewn with an edge cloth 4c. The protrusion forming member 6 is disposed between the front side belt fabric 4a and the rear side belt fabric 4b.

  The protrusion forming member 6 is made of a hard sponge having a thickness of about 1 cm, and is arranged to extend along the longitudinal direction of the belt main body 8 at a portion that contacts the lower part of the clavicle at the time of mounting. By the thickness of a portion of the belt main body 8 being increased by the projection forming member 6, the belt projecting portion 6 a is formed on the belt main body 8. The belt protrusion 6a is pressed by the user at the time of tightening of the shoulder belts 3 and 4 by the length adjustment unit 9, and therefore can be used as a standard indicating appropriate tightening strength by the shoulder belts 3 and 4.

  In addition, the belt projecting portion 6a is positioned below the clavicle, specifically, at the lower end of the clavicle outer end or in the vicinity of the buttock projection portion, thereby pressing the corresponding portion and pulling the shoulder belts 3 and 4 It is possible to make the user H conscious and to call back the scapula to an appropriate position.

  In addition, the projections on the back rest projection 5a and the belt projection 6a become stimulations and act on the brain through the sensory nerve, which makes it easy to take the center of gravity of the entire body, effectively adjusting the posture. Function.

  The posture correction belt 1 according to the present embodiment passes a shoulder through an annular portion formed by the shoulder belts 3 and 4 as shown in FIG. 2, and the backrest portion 2 is suitable between the shoulder blades S of the user H. To be placed in the proper position. It is preferable to mount the posture correction belt 1 according to the present embodiment from above the clothes. At the time of wearing, by loosening the length adjustment part 9 of the shoulder belts 3 and 4, a sufficient length of the shoulder belts 3 and 4 is secured, and at the stage of passing both shoulders in the annular portion of the shoulder belts 3 and 4, The shoulder belts 3 and 4 are tightened by pulling the free end of the length adjustment unit 9. Thus, the posture correction belt 1 according to the present embodiment can be easily detached.

  At the time of tightening of the shoulder belts 3 and 4, the pressing strength to the user H by the belt protrusion 6 a of the shoulder belts 3 and 4 can be used as a reference of the tightening strength.

  However, since the posture correction belt 1 according to the present embodiment is made of a non-stretchable material and does not forcibly correct the posture of the user H, it is not necessary to fasten it very strongly. Specifically, it may be tightened to such an extent that the muscles of the upper body can move in a balanced manner.

  By mounting the posture correction belt 1 according to the present embodiment so as not to inhibit the movement of muscles, extension virtual lines A and B of the shoulder belts extending from the backrest cross at the central portion of the back and are pulled Since the direction is continuous from the upper side toward the shoulder to the position returned to the backrest 2 through the underarm, the movement of the left and right muscles can be transmitted to the upper body in a balanced manner, and normal muscle movement can be assisted.

  The shoulder belts 3 and 4 are made of a non-stretchable material, and in order to promote proper movement according to the movement of joints around the user's shoulder, rather than wearing in a pulled state, By causing the user to sense his own motion, he corrects the posture of the user to the proper state. Therefore, it is possible to realize support of the operation of the user without usually giving the user a feeling of tightening.

  In addition, at the time of wearing, when the back is in a curled state, the backrest projecting portion 5a disposed in the backrest 2 strongly strikes the back, so that the user H has an unstable posture. It can sense that.

  In the posture correction belt according to the embodiment described above, for the two left and right shoulder belts in the oblique position, the extending direction through the sewing portion is linear and substantially orthogonal to each other. The pulling direction of the part extending upward and the part returning from the lower side to the backrest part match, and a force is exerted to pull the scapula downward in the spine direction. For this reason, there is an effect that the chest is easy to open.

  Further, since the two shoulder belts extending at intersections of the imaginary lines are fixed in position by the sewn part sewn to the backrest, the intersection position and the crossing angle of the imaginary lines of the shoulder belts are fixed. As a result, the position at which the shoulder belt pulls the shoulder does not shift due to the action of the upper body, and it is possible to reduce the trouble of reattachment and the like.

  The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and can be practiced in various other aspects. In the present embodiment, a thin hard sponge is used as the protrusion forming member 5 to form the back protrusion 5 a in the back pad 2. The material and the shape are not limited as long as the shape can be formed. For example, the shape of the protrusion forming member is not limited to the rectangular shape as shown in FIG. 1 and may be another shape. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, a member having a central portion projecting to the back side of the user may be used. Further, the material is not limited to hard sponge, and, for example, rubber, urethane foam, wood, etc., which can realize appropriate hardness as the back-up projecting part 5a can be widely used. A magnet can also be used as the protrusion forming member 5.

  Further, in the present embodiment, the protrusion forming member 5 is attached to the backrest 2 by being disposed between the belt fabrics 4a and 4b, but for example, the protrusion formation member 5 is detachable on the surface of the backrest 2 It may be attached to In addition, the backrest may be formed in a projecting shape as a whole by increasing the thickness of the entire backrest instead of projecting a part of the main surface of the backrest.
