Description

The present invention assists the user in wearing a head-mounted device such as a mask, face shield, glasses, goggles, headlight, communication device (income), and camera when the user wears the head-mounted device on the head. It's about the ingredients. As an example, the mounting assisting tool of the present invention is particularly preferably used as a mounting assisting tool for mounting a mask or a face shield on the head.

Workers engaged in medical and long-term care work should wear masks, face shields, glasses, goggles, headlights, communication devices (income), cameras, and other head attachments firmly on their heads. .. These head-worn tools include those that hook on the pinna (masks, goggles, glasses, etc.) and those that are wrapped around the head with a band (face shield), and are worn on the head depending on the work content. Will be done. In order to prevent the spread of infectious diseases, particularly strict use is required in the medical and long-term care settings, and the head-wearing device should be tightly attached to the pinna or the head so that it will not slip or come off during engagement. Attach it by tightening it firmly around the part.

In medical and long-term care where it is necessary to wear the head-wearing device firmly for a long period of time every day in the case of prolonged corona-ka, the head (auricle and head) that accompanies the wearing of the head-wearing device There are a number of workers suffering from pain and distress in the surrounding area. The pain and distress of workers in the field may affect the quality and quantity of medical care and long-term care provided, and an urgent solution is desired to maintain and develop future medical care and long-term care. ..

In order to reduce the pain in the ear when wearing the mask, for example, a mask (Patent Document 1) in which an adjusting portion for adjusting the length and strength of the elastic cord is provided in the middle of the elastic cord of the mask, or a plurality of masks. A mask using a rubber cord (Patent Document 2) in which a fibrous member is wound so that the elastic cord is woven and wound around the elastic cord individually, and the elastic cord of the mask is attached to the wearer's ear. A wearing protective device (Patent Document 3) has been devised that allows a mask to be worn without locking the elastic cord to the ear by connecting it near the back of the head after passing through the upper part or the lower part.

However, the methods of Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, which aim to reduce ear pain when wearing a mask by making the rubber cord part of the mask multifunctional and highly functional, are hygienic because the manufacturing cost is high. In the medical and nursing fields where the use of disposable masks is required due to ease of management, it is extremely difficult to utilize such masks. Further, the wearing assisting tool of Patent Document 3 is a wearing assisting tool for attaching the mask by locking the rubber cord of the mask in the vicinity of the back of the head after passing through the upper part or the lower part of the wearer's ear. At this time, since the rubber cord of the mask is pulled in a direction different from the direction of the wearer's ear, which is the original correct direction, a gap is likely to be created between the wearer's face and the mask, and it accompanies conversation. It has the disadvantage that the mask is easily displaced by the movement of the mouth, so it is not suitable for medical and nursing care workers who always require strict wearing of the mask. In addition, among medical and long-term care workers, especially women with long hair often engage in bundling hair at the back of the head, but the wearing aid of Patent Document 3 installed on the back of the head collides with the bunched hair. In many cases, it cannot be installed well. In addition to masks, there has never been a mounting aid that can simultaneously wear multiple head-wearing devices such as face shields and goggles without pain.
The present invention is a wearing assisting tool used for wearing a head wearing tool such as a mask, a face shield, and goggles, and can assist the wearing of the head wearing tool without causing relatively large pain in the head. It is a device related to wearing aids.

The mounting aid of the head mounting tool according to the present invention has a three-dimensional shape by bending and deforming a flexible wire (aluminum wire) made of aluminum or the like, and can be worn by the user from above the head. Includes head frame. The three-dimensional shape is, for example, so that the center of the linear wire in the longitudinal direction is located near the center of the forehead, and the wire is extended from the forehead through the temporal region to the occipital region of the head. It can be configured by curving approximately C-shaped so that both the left and right sides are wrapped, then curving from the back of the head along the crown, and finally connecting both ends of the wire near the crown. The user can wear this three-dimensional head frame on the head from above the head.

At least a part of the head attachment such as a rubber cord of a mask can be hooked or fixed to a part in the middle of the wire of the head frame, for example, a part extending from the temporal region to the back of the head. Alternatively, a plurality of hooks (mask hooks, etc.) or fixtures are provided. When wearing a mask, which is an example of a head-wearing tool, the user can wear the mask by engaging the rubber cord of the mask with the hook or the fixing tool after wearing the head frame. At this time, the auricle is not loaded, so the ear does not hurt. In addition, since the mask can be attached so that the elastic cord is pulled in the correct direction (direction of the pinna), it is difficult to create a gap between the mask and the face, and the mask is not easily displaced.

As a head wearer, in addition to the mask, for example, a hook or fixture for fixing the face shield on the head frame located from the forehead to the temporal region, or near the temporal region (near the upper part of the goggles). A hook or fixture for fixing goggles or glasses can be attached to each hook, and a face shield, goggles, or glasses can be hooked or fixed to each hook. In the case of a mounting aid having a plurality of hooks or fixes in this way, the user can attach various head-mounted devices to the head frame, thereby causing pain in the multiple head-mounted devices. Can be installed at the same time.

According to the mounting aid for the head mounting tool according to the present invention, the user is equipped with the head mounting tool such as a mask, a face shield, glasses, goggles, a headlight, a communication device (income), and a camera. By wearing the above, one or more of these head-wearing devices can be worn on the head.

By using the above-mentioned mounting aid, it is not necessary to hook each head mounting tool to the user's auricle or to wrap (tighten) the head wearing tool with a band or the like around the head. As a result, the pain in the head (auricle, the circumference of the head, etc.) associated with the direct wearing of the head wearing device does not occur.

When the hook or fixative can be freely attached and detached to the head frame and the position can be adjusted, for example, a hook for a mask can be attached to the head frame on the extension line of the mask and auricle to make rubber. The attachment position can be adjusted for each user so that the string is pulled in the correct direction and the mask is not easily displaced and is attached correctly. In addition, making it possible to remove unnecessary hooks or fixtures (hooks or fixtures for head-mounted fixtures that are not worn) also helps to reduce weight.

In the field of medical care and long-term care, there are many movements accompanied by posture change such as bending forward and left and right to assist the patient's posture change. At that time, female workers with long hair should be careful to tie the hair with a hair tie or fix it with a hair styling product so that the hair does not get in the eyes or obstruct the view. Since the wearing assisting tool for the head wearing tool according to the present invention is a head frame that is worn over the hair on the head, the effect of restraining the hair so that the hair is not disturbed can be naturally exhibited by wearing the head frame.

Among medical and long-term care workers, women with long hair often work by bundling their hair near the back of the head. Since the head frame of the head-mounted tool according to the present invention can be shaped so as to have a large opening behind it, it is possible to prevent it from interfering with the hair bundled at the back of the head.

By designing hooks or fixtures for masks, face shields, etc. with cute flowers, animals, characters, etc., it is possible to provide hooks or fixtures with excellent decorativeness. The wearing aid according to the present invention can be enjoyed fashionably like an accessory that is worn over the head and displayed.

According to the specific configuration of one example of the present invention, a plurality of head-wearing devices can be worn without pain, the hair shape during work is not disturbed, and a head-wearing device with excellent decorativeness is provided. can. The main components of this mounting aid are flexible wires and hooks or fixtures, but their raw material costs are generally low and easy to assemble, which makes it possible to keep manufacturing costs down, resulting in relatively relatively low costs. It can be provided at low cost.

It is a perspective view from the front which shows the state that the mounting aid of FIG. 1 is assembled. It is a perspective view from the front of the face shield and the mounting aid of FIG. 1 to which the face shield is attached. It is a profile view from the left side of the user who wears a mask using the wearing aid of FIG. 1. It is a profile view from the left of the user who wears a mask and a face shield using the wearing aid of FIG. 1.

One embodiment of the present invention is a head frame having a shape in which a flexible wire made of aluminum or the like coated with a silicon rubber tube or other elastic material is three-dimensionally or three-dimensionally curved and deformed. It has a head frame that can be worn from above. Specifically, in the head frame, for example, the center of the linear flexible wire coated with a silicon rubber tube in the longitudinal direction is positioned near the center of the forehead of the head, and from that state, the wire is used by the user. Both sides of the wire, separated by the center, were curved in a substantially C-shape so that the head was wrapped from both sides from the temporal region to the occipital region, and then the wire was curved from the occipital region to the crown. Later, by connecting both ends of the wire near the crown, it can be formed into a predetermined shape. On the wire of the head frame, hooks or fixings for hooking or fixing at least a part of a head mounting device such as a rubber cord of a mask, a face shield, goggles, glasses, an income, and a camera, respectively. The tool is removable and attached. That is, the hook or fixative is removable with respect to the wire. The user wears the head-wearing device that he / she wants to wear by hooking or fixing it to each hook or fixing tool.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 shows the components (parts) of the mounting aid 1 according to the present invention and the assembly method thereof.

The head frame as the main body is, for example, a flexible wire 2 made of aluminum or resin having a diameter of about 1 to 5 mm, and a tube 3 (elasticity) having an inner diameter of about the same and a wall thickness of several millimeters to several centimeters. It can be formed by covering it with a material). The elastic material tube 3 is a silicone rubber tube or foam that is soft, elastic, and has high frictional force so that when the user wears the head frame, the tube 3 can be gently contacted with the head and does not slip or shift. It is desirable to use a urethane tube or the like. Instead of the tube 3, the wire 2 may be coated with an elastic material.

Since the wire 2 has flexibility, a head frame having a predetermined shape can be configured as described below. First, with the longitudinal center of the flexible wire 2 covered with the tube 3 located near the center of the user's forehead, use both sides of the wire 2 across the center. It can be curved in an almost C-shape so as to wrap from both the left and right sides from the temporal region of the person's head to the occipital region, and then curved along the crown from the occipital region. After that, both ends of the wire 2 in the longitudinal direction are inserted into and fixed to the top accessory (wire connector) 4 on the crown. As a result, both ends of the wire 2 are connected to form a head frame 5 that covers the user's head.

A hook or a fixing tool for hooking or fixing a head mounting tool such as a mask or a face seal to the wire 2 is attached to the wire 2 of the head frame 5. Specific examples of the hook or fixative include a mask hook 6 for hooking a mask, a face shield hook 7 for attaching a face shield, and the like. The openings 6a and 7a of each hook attached to the headframe 5 are substantially C-shaped, and the openings 6a and 7a are connected to the wire 2 (or a tube around the headframe 5) of the headframe 5. By fitting it into 3), the hooks 6 and 7 can be attached to the appropriate positions of the wire 2 of the head frame 5. The hooks 6 and 7 can be attached to and detached from the wire 2 of the head frame 5, and can be removed or displaced.

FIG. 2 shows a mounting aid according to the present invention in an assembled state. Since the head frame 5 is composed of the flexible wire 2, the user puts the head frame 5 on the head from above, and then deforms the shape of the head frame 5 so as to wrap the head. It can be made to fit perfectly on its own head. At this time, as shown in FIG. 2, the wire 2 of the head frame 5 does not surround the entire circumference of the user's head and is interrupted at the back of the head. Further, a portion of the wire 2 extending to the crown rests on the crown, and the head frame 5 is held on the user's head. The headframe 5 is mounted so that it fits perfectly into the shape of the user's head and rests on the head, rather than being tightened and fixed around the user's head. Since it is made of a lightweight material, its weight is also light, so that the user hardly causes any pain or discomfort while wearing the head frame 5.

FIG. 3 shows a state in which the face shield 8 is attached to the face shield 8 and the mounting aid 1 in the assembled state described above. Here, the face shield 8 is attached to the head frame 5 by fitting the attachment concave portion 8a of the face shield 8 with the attachment convex portion 7b of the face shield hook 7. However, the mounting mode of the face shield 8 on the head frame 5 is not limited to this.

FIG. 4 shows how the user 9 is wearing the mask 10 by using the wearing assisting tool 1 according to the present invention. The user 9 puts the head frame 5 to which the mask hook 6 is attached on the head, and then hooks the rubber cord 10a of the mask 10 on the constriction 6b of the mask hook 6 to cover the mask. 10 is attached. At this time, since the rubber cord 10a is not hung on the auricle 9a of the user 9 and does not apply any load, the ear does not hurt due to the arrival of the mask 10.

FIG. 5 shows how the user 9 wears the face shield 8 at the same time as the mask 10 by using the wearing assist tool 1 according to the present invention. At this time, the face shield 8 is fixed to the face shield hook 7 attached to the head frame 5, and is not tied to the head circumference using a band or the like as in the conventional case. There is no pain around the head due to the wearing of the face shield 8.

The mounting aid 1 as described above can be relatively lightweight. As an example, as the flexible wire 2, an aluminum wire having a diameter of 3 mm and a length of 75 cm is used as the flexible wire 2, and the tube 3 having an inner diameter of 4 mm, which covers the flexible wire 2. Using a silicon rubber tube with an outer diameter of 6 mm, and using an ABS disk with a diameter of about 20 mm and a thickness of 3 mm as the top accessory 4 (wire connector), the head frame 5 is attached. When formed, it weighs about 39 grams and is light enough in weight. In addition, because it uses a flexible wire, it fits perfectly so that it wraps around its own head shape, and because the frictional force of the silicone rubber tube is exerted, it moves like moving the head during work. Even if you do, it will not come off or slip off your head, and you can comfortably wear it on your head.

As shown in FIG. 4 or 5, women with long hair engaged in medical or long-term care often use a hair tie or the like to bundle their hair at the back of their head. The conventional mask wearing aid may not be usable because it interferes with the hair 9b bundled at the back of the head, but the head frame 5 according to the present invention has a shape with a large opening behind the head frame 5 so that the back of the head has a large opening. It can be attached without interfering with the bundled hair 9b.

Further, the head frame 5 according to the present invention is used by covering it on the hair. Therefore, the wearer's hair can be fixed and not disturbed (function), and it is possible to prevent the hair from being scattered during the movement during engagement and hindering the work. Specifically, by wearing the head frame 5, it is possible to prevent the bangs and the hair on the temporal region from falling forward due to gravity and getting caught in the eyes when leaning forward.

The structure of the attachment portion of the hooks 6 and 7 to the head frame 5 may be a partially open shape such as a C-shape. In the case of the head frame described in paragraph 0023, the diameters of the openings 6a and 7a are preferably 5 mm, and the opening width of the entrances of the openings 6a and 7a is preferably about 4.5 mm. The head frame 5 can be freely attached and detached by pushing the head frame 5 into the openings 6a and 7a and pulling out the head frame 5 from the openings 6a and 7a, and when attached (tube 3 covered with wire 2). It will not fall off or shift (by exerting the frictional force with).

Hooks can be hooked or fixed according to the type of head-mounted device to be worn and its shape characteristics, such as for masks, face shields, goggles / glasses, intercoms, and cameras.

As the top accessories 4 and hooks 6 and 7, those designed with cute shapes such as flowers, animals, and famous characters can be used. In this case, the weight may be heavy, but by attaching the top accessories 4, hooks 6 and 7, which are excellent in decoration and aesthetics, to the head frame 5, you can enjoy wearing them as hair accessories to decorate your head. .. You can also enjoy fashion by attaching only hooks 6 and 7 to the head frame 5 as accessories. Therefore, it is preferable that the top accessory 4 is detachable at both ends of the wire 2 so that it can be replaced.

As the head wearing tool used by using the wearing assisting tool 1 of the above embodiment, a mask and a face shield have been described as an example, but other things to be worn on the head, such as goggles, glasses, and headlights, are used. It can also be an intercom (earphone or small microphone), a camera, etc., and is not limited to the above-mentioned example.

Further, the head frame 5 of the mounting aid 1 of the above embodiment is formed by bending one wire 2 three-dimensionally, but the wire is divided into several parts and is composed of a plurality of wires. You may. For example, when it is desired to attach a headlight, the headframe 5 may be cut at the forehead portion to be divided into two, and the headlight may be attached between them.
