Description

The present invention relates to disposable protective clothing used by medical staff and the like for treating infected patients for the purpose of preventing infection.

As seen in the worldwide spread of the new coronavirus in 2020, medical staff who must treat infected patients during a large-scale epidemic of infectious diseases wear shower caps, masks, and vinyl gloves. In addition, it is necessary to wear protective clothing and try to prevent infection from patients.

In addition, in a serious epidemic where there is concern about the collapse of the medical field, it may not be easy to be hospitalized when the symptoms are mild, and the family may have to take care of them at home. In order to prevent the spread of infection among family members, it is preferable that the family members who care for infected patients also wear protective clothing in the same way as medical staff.

As the prior art document information related to this kind of protective clothing, for example, the following Patent Documents 1 and 2 and the like are available.

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2005-2545 Utility Model Registration No. 3141379 Gazette

However, this type of protective clothing does not simply mean that the wearer must not be infected by the patient himself, but by appropriately changing into new protective clothing and throwing it away one after another, infection to others through protective clothing is possible. Need to be prevented.

In other words, the place where the patient coughed or the contact area during nursing will be contaminated with the virus, and there is a possibility that the virus or bacteria have adhered to the surface of the protective clothing even if it is not visible. Therefore, if an infected patient is cared for and then enters another room while wearing the same protective suit, there is a risk that the room will be contaminated.

For this reason, if there is enough inventory, protective clothing must be put on and taken off many times and thrown away, and it is necessary to make it easy to put on and take off. It is necessary to be able to respond quickly to the growing demand, and it is also necessary to reduce the cost per piece as much as possible and reduce the financial burden.

For example, the protective clothing described in Patent Documents 1 and 2 mentioned above is in the form of a tethered clothing in which a jacket and trousers are integrated, and fasteners equipped on the front side and the back side are used. It is designed to be opened and closed and put on and taken off, but this type of tethered clothes takes time to put on and take off, and is not suitable for use in such a way that it is put on and taken off many times and then thrown away.

Moreover, such garments cannot be easily sewn, it is difficult to quickly respond to the rapid increase in demand during a large-scale epidemic of infectious diseases, and the cost per piece is high. ..

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and it can be easily attached and detached, its production is easy, it can quickly respond to a rapid increase in demand, and it is inexpensive. The purpose is to provide disposable protective clothing that can be produced and has a low financial burden.

The present invention is a disposable protective clothing used to prevent infection, and is composed of an upper part and a lower part cut from a resin sheet in a single stroke shape, and the upper part has an upper part folded back to the back side. In addition, it has a poncho shape with a neck-pulling part through which the wearer's head passes through a vertical cut in the center of the folded part, and hangs down to the front side to cover the range from the wearer's chest to the abdomen. Bands for wrapping around the wearer's torso are formed on both sides of the middle part of the front hanging part to cover and both sides of the lower end of the back hanging part that hangs down to the back side and covers the wearer's back. While the overhanging parts formed on both sides are bound together in a tubular shape to form the sleeves, the lower part forms an apron shape that covers the area from the waist to the feet of the wearer from the front side to the back side. It is characterized in that a waist cord portion for wrapping around the wearer's waist is formed on both sides of the upper end thereof.

Therefore, when wearing the protective clothing configured in this way at the time of use, first, grasp the waist cords on both sides of the upper end of the apron-shaped lower part with both hands and apply the entire lower part to the front of both feet. When each of the waist straps is turned to the back side and then returned to the front side and tied, the range from the waist to the foot of the wearer is rolled up from the front side to the back side by the lower part and covered.

Next, after passing the wearer's arms through both sleeves of the poncho-shaped upper part, the wearer's head is projected from the neck pulling part by covering the upper part, and the back hanging part is covered with the wearer's back. After arranging, each band of the anterior sagging part is turned to the front side and tied, and then the anterior sagging part is arranged so as to cover the range from the wearer's chest to the abdomen, and each band part of the anterior sagging part is arranged. When each of the above is turned to the back side and then returned to the front side and tied, the upper body of the wearer is wrapped and covered by the front hanging portion and the rear hanging portion.

In addition, when tying each band part of the rear hanging part to the front side in advance, the front hanging part is lifted up and tied inside the front hanging part, and the front hanging part is covered from the tied top. The band portion of the front hanging portion may be tied as it is on the outside of the front hanging portion.

Then, when taking off the protective clothing after use, first grasp the area around the neck pulling part of the upper part with both hands and pull it to the left and right, and the neck pulling part, which was originally only a vertical cut, is easily torn to the left and right. By enlarging the rift, the back hang part separates to the left and right, so after that you can stretch each band part of the front hang part and loosen it or tear it off and take it off. You can stretch the part to loosen it or cut it into pieces and take it off.

Further, in the present invention, it is preferable to insert another cut that is intermittently arranged in the vertical direction with respect to the cut of the neck pulling portion in the rear hanging portion of the upper part to form the first fracture auxiliary slit. Then, when the neck pulling part of the upper part is torn to the left or right, the tear is easily enlarged by the first breaking auxiliary slit that is intermittently arranged in the vertical direction with respect to the cut of the neck pulling part, and the upper part is made. It will be easier to take off.

Further, in the present invention, it is preferable to make a cut in the base end portion of the band portion on the front hanging portion side of the upper part to promote the separation of the band portion to form a second fracture assisting slit. By simply stretching each band portion tied on the outside of the front hanging portion side forward, the separation at the base end portion of the band portion is promoted by the second breaking auxiliary slit, and the upper part becomes easier to take off. ..

Bands 7 and 8 for winding around the wearer's torso are formed on both sides of the lower end portion of 6, respectively, and the overhanging portions formed on the left and right sides of the folded portion are bound together in a tubular shape to form the sleeve portion 9. It is designed to be formed.

Regarding the binding of the sleeves 9, the sleeves 9 may be sewn with a thread using a sewing machine or the like, may be bound by welding, or may be bonded using an adhesive. It is good, but in any case, since the binding point is on the lower side of the sleeve portion 9, even if the droplets from the cough of the infected patient hit the sleeve portion 9, there is a possibility that the droplets will penetrate into the sleeve portion 9. Very few.

Further, the rear hanging portion 6 of the upper part 2 is provided with another cut that is intermittently arranged in the vertical direction with respect to the cut of the neck pulling portion 4, and a fracture assisting slit 10 (first fracture assisting slit) is provided. The upper part 2 is formed so that the base end portion of the band portion 7 on the front hanging portion 5 side is provided with a cut that promotes the separation of the band portion 7 and the fracture assist slit 11 (second). A breaking auxiliary slit) is formed.

On the other hand, the lower part 3 has a front-hanging shape that covers the range from the wearer's waist to the foot from the front side to the back side, and the waist strap portion for wrapping around the wearer's waist on both upper ends thereof. 12 is formed.

Therefore, when wearing the protective clothing 1 configured in this way at the time of use, as shown in FIG. 3, first, the lower parts are grasped by both hands on the waist cords 12 on both upper ends of the apron-shaped lower part 3. When the entire 3 is applied in front of both feet, and then, as shown in FIG. 4, each of the waist cord portions 12 is turned to the back side and then returned to the front side and tied, the range from the wearer's waist to the feet is expanded. The lower part 3 is wound from the front side to the back side and covered.

The part 4 is easily torn to the left and right, and the rear hanging part 6 is separated to the left and right by increasing the rift. On the other hand, the lower part 3 may be removed by stretching and loosening or tearing each waist cord portion 12.

Further, in particular, in the present embodiment, the rear hanging portion 6 of the upper part 2 is provided with another cut that is intermittently arranged in the vertical direction with respect to the cut of the neck pulling portion 4, so that the upper part is used as a breaking auxiliary slit 10. When the neck pulling portion 4 of 2 is torn to the left or right, the tear is easily enlarged by the breaking auxiliary slits 10 intermittently arranged in the vertical direction with respect to the cut of the neck pulling portion 4, and the upper part 2 can be easily removed. ..

Further, since the breaking auxiliary slit 11 is formed by making a cut in the base end portion of the band portion 7 on the front hanging portion 5 side of the upper part 2 to promote the separation of the band portion 7, it is tied on the outside of the front hanging portion 5 side. By simply stretching each band portion 7 forward, separation at the base end portion of each band portion 7 is promoted by the breaking auxiliary slit 11, and the upper part 2 can be more easily removed.

Further, the polyethylene sheet used as the resin sheet for cutting the upper part 2 and the lower part 3 can significantly reduce the cost because the raw material cost is low, and for example, about 0.01 mm. Even if it is thin, it can exhibit durability sufficient for use as a disposable protective clothing 1.

Therefore, according to such a form example, the apron-shaped lower part 3 can be easily worn by simply wrapping it around the wearer's waist and tying it with the waist strap portion 12, and also covering the poncho-shaped upper part 2. It can be easily worn by simply wrapping it around the body with the bands 7 and 8, and after use, tear the neck pulling part 4 of the upper part 2 and stretch each band 7 and 8 to loosen or tear it apart. It can be easily removed by simply pulling it off, and the lower part 3 can also be easily removed by simply stretching and loosening or tearing each waist cord portion 12, so it is very easy to remove as a disposable protective clothing 1. It can be put on and taken off.

Further, the upper part 2 and the lower part 3 forming the protective clothing 1 can be cut into a single stroke from the resin sheet, and the cutting time can be significantly shortened. After that, the upper part of the upper part 2 can be cut. Can be completed simply by folding back to the back side and binding the overhanging portions formed on both the left and right sides of the folded portion into a tubular shape to form the sleeve portion 9, which greatly facilitates the production of the protective clothing 1 and infects it. It is possible to quickly respond to the rapid increase in demand during a large-scale epidemic of illness, and by being able to produce from resin sheets, the cost per sheet can be reduced as much as possible, and the financial burden of disposable items can be reduced. It can be significantly reduced.

Further, since another cut that is intermittently arranged in the vertical direction with respect to the cut of the neck pulling portion 4 is formed in the rear hanging portion 6 of the upper part 2 to form a fracture assisting slit 10, the neck pulling portion 4 of the upper part 2 is provided. The rift formed by tearing to the left and right can be easily enlarged by the breaking auxiliary slit 10 to make it easier to remove the upper part 2.

Further, since the breaking auxiliary slit 11 is formed by making a cut in the base end portion of the band portion 7 on the front hanging portion 5 side of the upper part 2 to promote the separation of the band portion 7, it is tied on the outside of the front hanging portion 5 side. By simply stretching each band portion 7 forward, disconnection at the base end portion of each band portion 7 can be promoted by the breaking auxiliary slit 11, and the upper part 2 can be further easily removed.
