Description

The present invention relates to a wearing tool or the like to be worn on a human ear.

Wearing tools that are used by attaching to the human ear (auricle) in the form of jewelry such as earrings have been proposed. The wearer has the function of pressing and stimulating the so-called "acupuncture points" of the ear, but at the same time, it also has the meaning of an accessory attached to the ear. Patent Document 1 is given as an example of such an ear fitting.

Utility Model Registration No. 3224664

However, the wearing tool of Patent Document 1 includes a first connecting portion 14 that hangs down from above the auricle, and it is not always in the form of an earring, and the feeling of being caught in the ear is felt. Therefore, there has been a demand for a wearer that is simple and can be attached to the ear in a form comparable to earrings.

As a first means to achieve the above object, in a wearer arranged with the pinna sandwiched in the thickness direction, at least one end of a flexible metal linear member formed by bending. A granular body having a plurality of irregularly uneven protrusions formed on the surface thereof was provided, and the sharp end of the linear member was processed so as not to be pierced by the auricle.
Since the metal linear member has a flexible and bent shape, the granular body and the other end of the linear member can be arranged in front of and behind the auricle via the linear member. When the linear member is attached while deforming the other end of the linear member so as to be close to each other so as to sandwich the flesh of the auricle, the linear member has flexibility and maintains its deformed state. It will be attached in place on the pinna. As a result, the attachment can be placed at any acupoint position.
For the processing of the linear member, for example, it is preferable to attach a cover to the area including the tip, or to round or bend the tip so that the sharp end of the linear member does not hit. The metal linear member should have flexibility that bends (deforms) due to an external force, but if it bends with a too small external force, it becomes difficult to pinch the auricle in the thickness direction, so the metal It is good to adjust the thickness according to the hardness of. For example, in the case of a single wire stainless alloy, 0.3 to 0.8 mm is preferable, and in the case of a single wire aluminum alloy, 0.8 to 1.5 mm is preferable. A finer wire may be used by twisting a plurality of linear members. Further, the linear member may be surrounded by, for example, a plastic tube to adjust the bendability / difficulty of the linear member.
Further, as a second means, in a wearer arranged by sandwiching the auricle in the thickness direction, one end of a flexible metal linear member formed by bending is unevenly uneven on the surface. A first granule having a plurality of protrusions formed therein was provided, and a second granule having a form different from that of the first granule was provided at the other end.
In this case as well, the attachment can be arranged at an arbitrary acupoint position by the same action as described above. The surface of the second granule, which has a different form from that of the first granule, does not have to be irregularly uneven, and for example, a sphere is preferable.
Further, as a third means, in a wearer arranged by sandwiching the auricle in the thickness direction, the surface of both ends of a flexible metal linear member formed by bending is unevenly uneven. A granular body in which a plurality of protrusions were formed was provided.
In this case as well, the attachment can be arranged at an arbitrary acupoint position by the same action as described above.
Further, as a fourth means, the radial length of the granules was set to be within 12 mm.
If the granules are too large, they may be too heavy to be attached to the ears, or it may be difficult to place them well in the small acupoint areas of the ears, so such a size is preferable. Further, it is more preferable that the size is 8 mm or more.
Further, as a fifth means, the granules were made of transparent plastic.
This is because if it is made of transparent plastic, it is light, and if it is transparent, it is highly effective as an accessory. The transparency may be colored or translucent. It may be manufactured exclusively for the present invention as a transparent plastic product, or granular plastic used for other purposes such as water purification may be diverted.

According to the present invention, the mounting tool can be arranged at an arbitrary acupoint position.

(A) is a front view and (b) is a sectional view of the plastic beads used in the mounting tool of the embodiment. (A) is a front view and (b) is a sectional view of the mounting tool of the embodiment. An explanatory view of a state in which the wearing tool of the embodiment is attached. (A) and (b) are front views of the fittings of other embodiments.

Hereinafter, an example of the mounting tool according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
As shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, the attachment 1 has colorless and transparent plastic beads 2. The plastic beads 2 are granules made of AC resin. As the plastic beads 2, the granules contained in the shower head, which are no longer needed due to the replacement, are diverted for water purification. The plastic beads 2 have a plurality of irregularly uneven protrusions formed on the surface in order to hold the accommodation position without moving in the shower head (which also has the effect of increasing the surface area), and thus become unnecessary. By using the plastic beads 2 as the mounting tool 1 of the present embodiment, resources can be reused. As shown in FIG. 1 (b), the plastic beads 2 have communication holes 3 formed in the radial direction. Since the surface of the plastic beads 2 is irregularly uneven, the shortest diameter direction is about 10 mm and the longest diameter direction is about 12 mm. The weight of one plastic bead 2 is about 0.8 g.
As shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, one end side of a curved cross-sectional circular wire 4 made of surgical stainless steel is inserted into the communication hole 3 of the plastic beads 2. The wire 4 is fixed by a tape 5 wound on one end side so as to have a diameter substantially the same as the inner diameter of the communication hole 3. The total length of the portion exposed from the plastic beads 2 is about 30 mm. The wire 4 is smoothly bent so as to draw a large arc. The tip of the wire 4 is formed as an abutting portion 6 by winding the tip region into a ring shape having a larger curvature than the other portion of the wire 4 so as not to be a tip. The auricle is sandwiched by the facing portions (P1, P2) of the abutting portion 6 and the plastic beads 2. In the present embodiment, the diameter of the wire 4 is 0.7 mm in relation to the material, and this thickness is a thickness at which its own shape is maintained unless a large external force acts on it. For example, even if the plastic beads 2 are supported in the shape of a cantilever by the wire 4, the wire 4 is not deformed by its weight. In this embodiment, the wire 4 is not deformed by a load of up to about 250 g. Further, since the wire 4 is deformed by a load of about 250 g or more, the wire 4 can be sufficiently deformed by the force of a human finger. Therefore, the distance between the plastic beads 2 and the contact portion 6 can be appropriately adjusted by deforming the wire 4 with a human finger.

When attaching the wearing tool 1 configured in this way to the auricle, the wearer wants to hold the wearing tool 1 at a predetermined position of his / her auricle, that is, a position where he / she wants to sandwich the wearing tool 1 between the contact portion 6 and the plastic beads 2 as a pot. First, the wire 4 is expanded according to the thickness of the auricle at that position (if it is already sufficiently open, the operation is unnecessary), and the contact portion 6 and the plastic beads 2 are respectively from the outside of the auricle. Arrange them so that they are close to each other so that they are on the front and back of the auricle, and the auricle at the position of the auricle is scooped by the facing portions (P1, P2) of the contact portion 6 and the plastic beads 2. Press firmly with your fingers in the direction in which they approach each other so that the abutting portion 6 and the plastic beads 2 slightly bite into the pinna. FIG. 3 shows a state in which the acupuncture points at the base of the earlobe are attached so that the plastic beads 2 are on the back side of the earlobe.

With this configuration, the mounting tool 1 of the present embodiment has the following effects.
(1) The acupuncture points can be easily pressed by simply arranging the contact portion 6 and the plastic beads 2 before and after the acupuncture points.
(2) Since the surface of the plastic beads 2 is unevenly uneven, the holding force is large when the plastic beads 2 come into contact with the auricle.
(3) Since the plastic beads 2 are transparent and the surface is unevenly uneven, they reflect and transmit external light in various ways, and are excellent as accessories. For example, if the tape 5 is colored with a saturated color such as pink or yellow, it will be visually recognized as a kind of decoration from the outside.
(4) The wire 4 is made of surgical stainless steel and is therefore hygienic.

The above-described embodiment is merely described as a specific embodiment for exemplifying the principle of the present invention and its concept. That is, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. The present invention can also be embodied in a modified manner as follows, for example.
-As shown in FIG. 4A, plastic beads 2 may be attached to both ends to form a mounting tool 21. Further, as shown in FIG. 4B, instead of one of the plastic beads 2, a member such as an imitation pearl 22 made of plastic may be attached as the other second granular material to form the attachment 23. good. In FIG. 4B, a silicone tube 24 is attached to the outer periphery of the aluminum alloy wire 4.
-Aluminum alloy may be used as the material for the wire 4.
-The thickness of the wire 4 is an example. Further, it may be twisted instead of a single wire.
-The above is an example of the shape, material, weight, etc. of the plastic beads 2.
The present invention is not limited to the configuration described in the above-described embodiment. The components of each of the above-described embodiments and modifications may be arbitrarily selected and combined. Further, any component of each embodiment or modification, and any component described in the means for solving the device or any component described in the means for solving the device are embodied.
