Description

本発明は、日常生活におけるウイルスや細菌の接触感染を予防するための道具に関する。 The present invention relates to a tool for preventing contact infection of viruses and bacteria in daily life.

不特定多数の人が触れる、ドアノブ、トイレ個室ドアロック、トイレフラッシュバルブレバー、蛇口のハンドルやレバー、電車やバスのつり革や手すり、エスカレーターの手すり、釦類、などは、ウイルスや細菌の接触感染元となる可能性がある。日常生活においてウイルスや細菌の接触感染を予防するためには、不特定多数の人が触れる前記のものなどに素手で直接触れないことが重要である。 Doorknobs, private toilet room door locks, toilet flush valve levers, faucet handles and levers, train and bus straps and handrails, escalator handrails, buttons, etc., which are touched by an unspecified number of people, come into contact with viruses and bacteria. It can be a source of infection. In order to prevent contact infection with viruses and bacteria in daily life, it is important not to directly touch the above-mentioned items that are touched by an unspecified number of people with bare hands.

従来技術では、特許文献１や特許文献２において、つり革などの対象物と手の間にシート状部材をはさむことにより、対象物に素手で直接触れない提案がされているが、これらに示される方法は、第２指から第５指までを使用する方法であるため、第１指を同時に使用したつかまる動作（ドアの丸ノブや蛇口のハンドルの操作など）には適応しないものとなっている。 In the prior art, Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 have proposed that a sheet-like member is sandwiched between an object such as a strap and a hand so that the object is not directly touched with bare hands. Since the method is to use the 2nd to 5th fingers at the same time, it is not applicable to the gripping operation (operation of the round knob of the door or the handle of the faucet, etc.) using the 1st finger at the same time. There is.

特開２００１−３４８７１２号公報Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2001-348712 特開２００５−１２６８７６号公報Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2005-126876

日常生活においてウイルスや細菌の接触感染を予防するため、不特定多数の人が触れる、ドアノブ、トイレ個室ドアロック、トイレフラッシュバルブレバー、蛇口のハンドルやレバー、電車やバスのつり革や手すり、エスカレーターの手すり、釦類、などに素手で直接触れずに、これらを利用することを課題とする。 To prevent contact infection with viruses and bacteria in daily life, doorknobs, toilet private room door locks, toilet flush valve levers, faucet handles and levers, straps and handrails for trains and buses, escalators, touched by an unspecified number of people The problem is to use these without directly touching the handrails, buttons, etc. with bare hands.

前記課題を解決するため、本発明に係る接触感染予防具は、おおむね楕円形状のシート１の長径方向両端に、第２指から第５指を同時に挿入できる幅の入口をもつポケット２を有し、各ポケット２の入口はシート１の中心側にあり、ポケット２を外側にしてシート１の短径で２つ折りにした構造（図１）としている。本具の使用方法は、第２指から第５指を一方のポケット２に挿入し第１指をもう一方のポケット２に挿入して手に装着し、対象物に触れる際に、手と対象物の間にシート１をはさむ方法を想定している。 In order to solve the above problems, the contact infection preventive device according to the present invention has pockets 2 having entrances having a width at both ends in the major axis direction of the substantially elliptical sheet 1 in which the second to fifth fingers can be inserted at the same time. The entrance of each pocket 2 is on the center side of the seat 1, and the structure is such that the pocket 2 is on the outside and the seat 1 is folded in half with a short diameter (FIG. 1). The method of using this tool is to insert the 2nd to 5th fingers into one pocket 2, insert the 1st finger into the other pocket 2, attach it to the hand, and when touching the object, the hand and the object. A method of sandwiching the sheet 1 between objects is assumed.

本発明に係る接触感染予防具は、第２指から第５指を一方のポケット２に挿入し第１指をもう一方のポケット２に挿入していることで、シート１は手の握り開きの動作に追従することから、第２指から第５指と第１指で対象物につかまる動作や、各指の先端付近で対象物をつまむ動作を行うことができる。この、つかまる動作は、ドアの丸ノブの操作（図２）、蛇口のハンドルの操作、電車やバスの吊り革や手すりにつかまる動作、エスカレーターの手すりにつかまる動作、などが想定され、つまむ動作は、蛇口のレバーの操作、トイレ個室ドアロックやトイレフラッシュバルブレバーの操作、などが想定される。 In the contact infection preventive device according to the present invention, the second to fifth fingers are inserted into one pocket 2 and the first finger is inserted into the other pocket 2. Since it follows the motion, it is possible to perform an motion of grasping the object with the second to fifth fingers and the first finger, and an motion of pinching the object near the tip of each finger. This gripping operation is assumed to be the operation of the round knob on the door (Fig. 2), the operation of the faucet handle, the operation of grasping on the hanging leather or handrail of a train or bus, the operation of grasping on the handrail of an escalator, etc. Operation of the faucet lever, operation of the toilet private room door lock, toilet flush valve lever, etc. are assumed.

本発明に係る接触感染予防具は、不使用時にはポケット２を外側にして２つ折りにした状態であり、対象物に触れる面は外側表面に露出しないことから、携帯するのに都合がよい。 The contact infection preventive device according to the present invention is in a state of being folded in half with the pocket 2 on the outside when not in use, and the surface in contact with the object is not exposed on the outer surface, so that it is convenient to carry.

本発明に係る接触感染予防具は、ポケット２に指を挿入していった場合にポケット２の奥に指が突き当たることで、手と本具の位置関係を目視に頼らず把握できるため、目視に頼らず感覚的に使用することができる。また、本具の形状は、シート１の長径に対して線対称であるため、右手左手どちらで使用する場合でも同条件で使用することができる。 In the contact infection prevention device according to the present invention, when a finger is inserted into the pocket 2, the finger hits the back of the pocket 2, so that the positional relationship between the hand and the tool can be grasped without relying on visual inspection. It can be used sensuously without relying on. Further, since the shape of this tool is line-symmetrical with respect to the major axis of the sheet 1, it can be used under the same conditions regardless of whether it is used with the right hand or the left hand.

(A) is a front view. (B) is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in (a). 使用方法の例（ドアの丸ノブの操作）のイメージ図である。 It is an image diagram of an example of usage (operation of a round knob of a door).

図１は本発明に係る接触感染予防具の実施例を示す。図１において接触感染予防具は、おおむね楕円形状のシート１の長径方向両端に、第２指から第５指を同時に挿入できる幅の入口をもつポケット２を有し、各ポケット２の入口はシート１の中心側にあり、ポケット２を外側にしてシート１の短径で２つ折りにした構造である。本発明に係る接触感染予防具は、前記に示した使用方法において、手の握り開きの動きを大きく妨げない程度の柔軟性と、破損しない程度の強度を合わせもつ材料であれば、多種多様な材料を用いて製作することができる。たとえば、布、樹脂、不織布、紙などが想定される。また、洗濯可能な布を用いれば洗濯が可能であり、抗菌効果や殺菌効果をもつ材料を用いれば接触感染予防効果が増すことが期待でき、不織布や紙などの安価な材料を用いれば使い捨て具とすることができる。 FIG. 1 shows an example of a contact infection preventive device according to the present invention. In FIG. 1, the contact infection preventive device has pockets 2 having entrances having widths at which the second to fifth fingers can be inserted at the same time at both ends of the substantially elliptical sheet 1 in the major axis direction, and the entrances of the respective pockets 2 are sheets. It is on the center side of 1 and has a structure in which the pocket 2 is on the outside and the sheet 1 is folded in half with a short diameter. The contact infection preventive device according to the present invention has a wide variety of materials as long as they have a flexibility that does not significantly hinder the movement of the hand grip and a strength that does not damage the contact infection preventive device according to the above-mentioned method of use. It can be manufactured using materials. For example, cloth, resin, non-woven fabric, paper, etc. are assumed. In addition, it is possible to wash with a washable cloth, and it can be expected that the effect of preventing contact infection will increase if a material with antibacterial and bactericidal effects is used, and a disposable tool if an inexpensive material such as non-woven fabric or paper is used. Can be.
