Description

  The present invention relates to a belly band for a pregnant woman to be attached to a pregnant woman's abdomen.

  Conventionally, there is a pregnant woman band configured for the purpose of alleviating back pain in pregnant women (for example, Patent Document 1). Specifically, the pregnant woman belt described in Patent Literature 1 is a belt shape that is wound obliquely downward from the vicinity of the upper end of the back waist portion of the pregnant woman to the lower abdomen, and both ends thereof are detachable from each other on the front side. ing. The pregnant woman band is connected to the back side of the lower abdomen belt part having elasticity in the direction along the lower abdomen from the vicinity of the upper end of the lumbar part on the back side, and arranged on the back side along the thoracic vertebra of the pregnant woman A back belt portion having elasticity in a direction along the thoracic vertebra, and a shoulder belt portion connected to the upper end portion of the back belt portion and positioned with respect to the shoulder portion by being hung on the shoulder portion of the pregnant woman Is provided. Thus, in the pregnant woman belt, the abdomen of the pregnant woman is supported from below by the lower abdomen belt.

JP 2008-144319 A

  However, in the pregnant woman belt described in Patent Document 1, the lower abdomen belt only supports the pregnant woman's abdomen from below to reduce the burden on the waist due to the abdomen becoming larger, and fits the abdomen of the pregnant woman. It did not cover the abdomen.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a pregnant abdominal band that supports the pregnant woman's abdomen and that easily fits the abdomen of the pregnant woman.

  The present invention employs the following configuration in order to solve the above problems.

  One example of the present invention is a belly band for a pregnant woman having a band body wound around the abdomen of the pregnant woman. The abdominal band for pregnant women has an abdomen protection part that protects the abdomen of the pregnant woman, which is fixed to the band body, and has at least a double structure by the abdomen protection part and the band body. The lower end of the abdomen protection part is fixed to the band body, and the upper end of the abdomen protection part is configured as a free end without being fixed to the band body.

  According to the above, the pregnant abdominal band has a double structure by the band main body and the abdomen protection part. The lower end of the abdomen protection part is fixed to the band body by, for example, sewing, and the upper end of the abdomen protection part is not fixed and is configured as a free end. Thereby, even if the belt body is pulled in the longitudinal direction, the abdomen protecting part is not pulled in conjunction with it, and the abdomen of the pregnant woman can be easily covered.

  In addition, a belt | band | zone main body may be comprised by the integrated fabric, and may be comprised by sewing several members, for example. Further, the band main body may be formed in a cylindrical shape, or may be formed in a band shape in which both ends can be attached and detached.

  In another configuration, a bag-like portion having an upper end opened may be formed by the abdomen protection portion and the band body.

  According to the above, a bag-like portion can be formed by the abdomen protection part and the band body, and the abdomen protection part can be moved more freely even if the band body is pulled in the longitudinal direction. Further, the abdomen can be warmed by inserting, for example, a hood in the bag-like portion.

  In another configuration, the upper end of the abdomen protection portion may be provided so as to protrude upward from the upper end of the band body.

  According to the above, since the abdomen protection part protrudes upward from the band body, the abdomen of the pregnant woman can be covered with the abdomen protection part.

  In another configuration, the abdomen protection part may be processed to have a three-dimensional structure from the lower end of the abdomen protection part toward the central part of the abdomen protection part.

  According to the above, the abdomen protection part can be projected forward of the pregnant woman by the three-dimensional structure to match the shape of the abdomen. In addition, in order to make it a three-dimensional structure, what kind of processes, such as a dart and a tack, may be given.

  In another configuration, the upper end of the abdomen protection part has an arc shape, part of which projects upward from the band body, and the lower end of the abdomen protection part is sewn to the lower end of the band body. The other part of the upper end of the abdomen protecting part other than the part protruding from the band body may be sewn to the band body.

  According to the above, the upper end of the abdomen protection part is formed in an arc shape. The abdomen protection part is sewn to the lower end of the band main body, and a part other than the part protruding from the band main body at the upper end of the abdominal part protection part is sewn to the band main body. For this reason, when the band main body is pulled in the longitudinal direction, the force applied to the upper end of the abdominal protection part is easily dispersed, and when the band main body is pulled in the longitudinal direction, the abdominal protection part is easily fitted to the abdomen of the pregnant woman.

  According to the present invention, the front body of the pregnant woman's abdominal band is made to have a double structure by the band main body and the abdomen protection part, so that the abdomen of the pregnant woman can be easily fitted and covered.

(Configuration of pregnant woman's abdominal band of this embodiment)
Hereinafter, a detailed configuration of a pregnant woman's abdominal band (pregnant woman band) in one embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a rear view of the pregnant woman's abdominal band 1 of the present embodiment. FIG. 2 is a front view of the abdominal band 1 for pregnant women of this embodiment. FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of the pregnant woman's abdominal band 1 of the present embodiment.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the pregnant abdominal band 1 includes a band main body 10 and an abdominal part protection unit 20. The band main body 10 is a band-shaped member having a width (length in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction) having substantially the same length in the longitudinal direction. The band body 10 is made of a stretchable fabric and is wound around the abdomen of a pregnant woman. The band main body 10 has an upper end 104 and a lower end 106 configured in, for example, a substantially V shape, and is brought into contact with the abdomen of a pregnant woman at a central portion on the back surface (a region including the central line 108 in FIG. 1).

  The band body 10 may be formed of a single band-like cloth having elasticity, and, for example, two cloths divided into left and right portions at the center line 108 are sewn together and integrally formed. Accordingly, the band body 10 shown in FIG. 1 may be configured. Moreover, the belt | band | zone main body 10 may be comprised by the cloth of 1 sheet integrally formed by laminating | stacking several cloths and sewing.

  A hook-and-loop fastener 101 as a locking portion and a hook-and-loop fastener 102 as a locked portion are provided at both left and right ends of the band body 10. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, a hook-and-loop fastener (male) 101 is provided on the back side of one end in the longitudinal direction of the band main body 10 and is raised in a hook shape. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, a hook-and-loop fastener (female) 102 densely raised in a loop shape is provided on the front side of the other end portion in the longitudinal direction of the band body 10.

  The band body 10 is fixed by hook-and-loop fasteners 101 and 102 at the waist of the pregnant woman, with the lower end of the central portion (region including the center line 108) being applied to the lower abdomen of the pregnant woman and passing through the left and right flank of the pregnant woman. . When the pregnant woman's abdominal band 1 is wound around the pregnant woman's abdomen, the central portion of the band main body 10 becomes the front body.

  In addition, the band body 10 is provided with a plurality of darts 103 for three-dimensionally forming the central portion of the band body 10 so as to match the swelling of the pregnant woman's abdomen. Specifically, the dart 103 is provided symmetrically about the center line 108. The dart 103 is provided so as to extend from the lower end 106 of the belt main body 10 toward the center portion (center line 108). Thus, by providing the dart 103, the central portion of the band body 10 has a three-dimensional structure that protrudes forward so as to match the swelling of the abdomen. The dart 103 is formed by making a cut extending from the lower end 106 of the band main body 10 toward the upper end 104 to the center portion in the vertical direction of the band main body 10 and sewing the cut portion of the cut.

  In addition, in order to make the front body of the band main body 10 into a three-dimensional structure, it is not restricted to dart processing. For example, a three-dimensional structure may be formed by taking a pleat on an elastic fabric and sewing it with a pinch (tack or the like).

  Next, the abdomen protection unit 20 will be described. As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, it is provided on the front side of the band main body 10, and is superimposed on the central portion (the front body) of the band main body 10. The lower end 204 of the abdominal part protection unit 20 is formed in a substantially arc shape protruding downward so as to match the shape of the lower end 106 of the band body 10. In addition, the upper end of the abdominal part protection unit 20 (the part where 201 and 202 are combined) is formed in a substantially arc shape protruding upward.

  Specifically, the lower end 204 of the abdomen protecting portion 20 is sewn to the lower end 106 of the band body 10 (sewn on the fastening line 107a in FIG. 1). Further, the upper end of the abdomen protecting portion 20 is sewn to the band main body 10 at the left and right portions (202 in FIG. 2) except for the central portion (201 in FIG. 2) (on the fastening line 107b in FIG. 1). Can be sewn).

  The upper end 202 of the abdominal part protection unit 20 is a part that overlaps the band main body 10 when the abdomen protection part 20 and the band main body 10 are overlapped, and the upper end 202 is sewn to the band main body 10. Further, the upper end 201 of the abdomen protection part 20 is a part that does not overlap the band body 10 when the abdomen protection part 20 and the band body 10 are overlapped, and the upper end 201 is not sewn to the band body 10. It is configured as a free end.

  Further, the abdomen protecting portion 20 is provided with a dart 203 having substantially the same size (length) at a position where it substantially overlaps with the dart 103 of the band body 10 when it is overlapped with the band body 10. Thereby, the abdomen protection part 20 becomes a three-dimensional structure that protrudes forward so as to fit the abdomen of the pregnant woman. Thus, when the belt body 10 and the abdomen protection part 20 are overlapped, the dart 103 and the dart 203 are provided so that the positions and sizes thereof overlap, so that it matches the shape of the abdomen of the pregnant woman. The front body of the pregnant woman's abdominal band 1 has a three-dimensional structure that protrudes forward as a whole.

  In addition, the abdominal part protection part 20 may be formed in a three-dimensional structure by another method without using dart processing. Further, the dart 103 of the belt main body 10 and the dart 203 of the abdominal part protection unit 20 do not necessarily have to be provided so as to coincide with each other.

  As described above, the abdominal band 1 for pregnant women has a double structure in the abdomen of the pregnant woman by overlapping the band main body 10 and the abdomen protecting part 20. And the lower end 106 of the band main body 10 and the lower end 204 of the abdominal part protection part 20 are sewn, and the upper end 202 of the abdomen protection part 20 is not sewn to the band main body 10 and is configured as a free end. Although details will be described later, in such a configuration, in the pregnant abdominal band 1 of the present embodiment, the abdominal protection part 20 can fit the abdomen of the pregnant woman and reliably cover the abdomen.

  Further, in the abdominal band 1 for pregnant women, a bag-shaped portion is formed by the band main body 10 and the abdomen protection part 20. FIG. 4 is a view of the central portion of the pregnant woman's abdominal band 1 of the present embodiment as viewed from the back. As shown in FIG. 4, the band main body 10 and the abdomen protecting portion 20 are overlapped and sewn at the lower end, whereby a bag-like portion 205 having an open top is formed. The bag-shaped portion 205 can be inserted with a body temperature regulator filled with the squirrel 5 or heating and cooling gel. Or you may insert in the bag-like part 205 the cushioning material which softens the impact to the abdomen of a pregnant woman, and the member which reflects and absorbs electromagnetic waves.

  Next, the effect when the abdominal band 1 for pregnant women of this embodiment is mounted on the abdomen of the pregnant woman and the configuration of the abdominal band 1 for pregnant women will be described. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing a use state of the pregnant woman's abdominal band 1 of the present embodiment.

  The pregnant woman's abdominal band 1 is attached to the pregnant woman's abdomen directly or from above, such as underwear. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, the pregnant woman's abdominal band 1 is wound around the abdomen so that the abdomen protecting part 20 of the pregnant woman's abdominal band 1 hits the abdomen 3 of the pregnant woman. More specifically, the lower end 204 of the abdomen protection part 20 is brought into contact with the vicinity of the lower abdomen of the pregnant woman. The band main body 10 extends obliquely upward from the lower abdomen, and a hook-and-loop fastener (male) 101 is superimposed on a hook-and-loop fastener (female) 102 in the waist 4 of the pregnant woman (see FIG. 3), and the belly band 1 for pregnant women is fixed. Is done.

  The elastic band body 10 extends obliquely upward from the pregnant woman's lower abdomen and is fixed at the waist, thereby causing an obliquely upward force (contraction force in the longitudinal direction) from the pregnant woman's lower abdomen to the waist. Works and can lift the lower abdomen of the pregnant woman upward. Moreover, since the force which pushes a waist part ahead acts, the burden on a waist can be reduced. Moreover, the abdominal part of the pregnant woman can be covered by the abdomen protecting part 20, and the abdomen can be protected from impact or the abdomen can be prevented from being cooled.

  Thus, the abdominal part of the pregnant woman can be supported by extending the band body 10 of the pregnant abdominal band 1 in the longitudinal direction. Moreover, since the front body of the abdominal band 1 for pregnant women becomes a double structure by the band main body 10 and the abdomen protecting part 20, it is possible to easily cover the abdomen of the pregnant woman.

  Here, the force which acts on each part of the abdominal band 1 for pregnant women in use condition is demonstrated. FIG. 6 is a diagram schematically showing the direction and magnitude of the contractile force applied to the pregnant abdominal band 1 in use. FIG. 6 shows the direction and magnitude of the contractile force resulting from the band body 10 being pulled in the longitudinal direction, and the others (for example, the pregnant woman's abdominal band 1 is formed by raising the abdomen of the pregnant woman forward). The force due to being pulled forward is omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 6, since the band body 10 is pulled in the longitudinal direction, a force for contracting against the pulling force acts in the longitudinal direction of the band body 10. Specifically, a force A that is relatively large in the longitudinal direction acts on a portion 109 (a portion where the abdomen protecting portion 20 does not overlap) where the flank of the band main body 10 hits. In addition, since the lower end 204 of the abdominal part protection unit 20 is sewn to the lower end 106 of the band main body 10, a force B similar to the force A is applied to the lower end 204 of the abdominal part protection unit 20 in the longitudinal direction of the band main body 10. Work (along the bottom edge 204).

  On the other hand, a relatively large force A similarly acts at the upper end of the portion 109 where the belt body 10 hits the flank, but the abdomen protection part 20 and the upper end 104 of the band body 10 are not sewn, so the abdomen protection part 20. A force C smaller than the force A acts on the upper side (upper side of the center of the abdominal part protection unit 20 in the vertical direction; for example, near the upper end 104 of the band main body 10). This is because the upper end 201 of the abdomen protection part 20 is not sewn to the band body 10 and the upper end 104 of the band body 10 is not sewn to the abdomen protection part 20. That is, the upper end of the abdominal part protection unit 20 and the upper end 104 of the band body 10 are configured as free ends. Further, the force acting on the abdomen protection part 20 is distributed in the longitudinal direction and the direction along the upper end 201 of the abdomen protection part 20 at the boundary between the upper end 104 of the band body 10 and the upper end 201 of the abdomen protection part 20. The For this reason, the longitudinal force acting on the abdomen protecting portion 20 decreases as it goes upward.

  For example, in the region of the abdomen protecting portion 20 that overlaps the upper end 104 of the band body 10 shown in FIG. 6, a force C that is weaker than the longitudinal force acting on the upper end 104 of the band body 10 acts in the longitudinal direction. Moreover, although the force D acts on the upper end 201 of the abdominal part protection part 20 along an upper end, the force D becomes a comparatively weak force.

  As described above, the abdomen protecting portion 20 is sewn to the band main body 10 at the lower end 204 and becomes a free end at the upper end 201 without being sewn to the band main body 10. The abdomen can be firmly supported from below, and the abdomen protecting part 20 can reliably cover the abdomen.

  That is, as described above, the lower end 204 of the abdomen protection part 20 and the lower end 106 of the band body 10 are sewn, and the upper end 201 of the abdomen protection part 20 becomes a free end without being sewn to the band body 10, The lower part of the abdomen protection part 20 is pulled in response to the band body 10 being pulled in the longitudinal direction, but the upper part of the abdomen protection part 20 is unlikely to be interlocked with the band body 10 and can move independently. For this reason, in the upper part of the abdominal part protection part 20, the influence by the belt | band | zone main body 10 being pulled in the longitudinal direction is small, the influence by raising the abdomen of the pregnant woman is increased, and the upper part of the abdominal part protection part 20 is Deformed, pulled by the pregnant woman's abdomen.

  Therefore, the abdomen protection part 20 can more reliably cover the pregnant woman's abdomen. Moreover, since the influence of the force by the belt | band | zone main body 10 being pulled to the longitudinal direction is small, the upper part of the abdominal part protection part 20 can prevent abdominal part of a pregnant woman from being tightened excessively.

  For example, when the abdominal band for pregnant women is not a double structure as in the present embodiment but is composed only of the band main body, it is not possible to cover up to the raised abdominal part 31 in FIG. In addition, when the pregnant woman's abdominal band is composed only of the band main body and the upper end of the band main body is formed so as to cover up to the abdominal part 31, when the band main body is pulled in the longitudinal direction, the abdomen of the band main body is The covering area (around the front) is also pulled according to the longitudinal force. Then, the pregnant abdominal band may not be deformed to fit the pregnant woman's abdomen. For example, the upper end of the front body may turn up or down.

  However, in the pregnant woman's abdominal band 1 of the present embodiment, the front body has a double structure by the band body 10 and the abdomen protection part 20, and the upper end of the abdomen protection part 20 in the front body protrudes above the upper end of the band body 10. Provided. And the upper end of the abdominal part protection part 20 becomes a free end without being fixed to the band main body 10. Thereby, the abdominal part protection part 20 is easy to deform | transform independently of the belt | band | zone main body 10, can deform | transform so that it may match the shape of an abdominal part, and can cover an abdominal part.

  Moreover, in the pregnant woman's abdominal band 1 of the present embodiment, a bag-like portion 205 having a double front structure and an open upper portion is formed. For example, a hood or the like is inserted into the bag-like portion to warm the abdomen. Can do.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, the upper end of the abdominal part protection part is formed in a substantially arc shape. And a part (center part; 201) of the said arc protrudes upwards rather than the upper end of a band main body, and the other part (both end parts; 202) is fixed to a band main body. For this reason, in the vicinity of the upper end of the abdomen protection part protruding upward from the band main body, the tensile force in the longitudinal direction of the band main body is easily dispersed, and the abdomen protection part easily fits the abdomen of the pregnant woman.

  As described above, in the pregnant woman's abdominal band 1 according to the present embodiment, the abdomen of the pregnant woman can be firmly supported from below, and the abdomen can be securely fitted and covered without being excessively tightened.

(Modification)
The above embodiment is merely an example, and various modifications may be made as described below, for example.

  For example, in the said embodiment, although the belt | band | zone main body 10 is made into the substantially V shape, in other embodiment, what kind of shape may be sufficient. Moreover, the shape of the abdomen protection part 20 may be any shape.

  FIG. 7 is a front view of a pregnant woman's abdominal band 50 according to another embodiment. The pregnant woman abdominal band 50 includes a band main body 60 and an abdomen protection part 70. For example, as shown in FIG. 7, in another embodiment, the pregnant woman's abdominal band may be formed in a substantially U-shape with a convex downward shape. Moreover, in other embodiment, a substantially circular arc may be sufficient and the strip | belt part does not need to be curving.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, the belt | band | zone main body was provided with the hook_and_loop | surface fastener in both ends, and was comprised so that it might become cylindrical at the time of use by being latched by the said hook_and_loop | surface fastener. In other embodiments, both ends may be locked by other arbitrary locking members. Further, the band main body may be formed of a cylindrical member.

  In the above embodiment, the abdomen protection part is fastened by sewing to the band main body. However, in other embodiments, the abdomen protection is performed by any other method (such as a method using a tape or an adhesive). The part may be fixed to the band body.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, the abdominal band 1 for pregnant women was formed by sewing the abdominal part protection part 20 to the part which the abdominal part of the pregnant woman of the band main body 10 formed integrally forms. In other embodiments, the band main body and the abdomen protection part may be formed by three or more members. For example, a first member applied to the abdomen of the pregnant woman and a second member superimposed on the front surface (the surface opposite to the pregnant woman) of the first member (for example, a member having the same stretchability as the abdomen protection unit 20). And a third member provided from the pregnant woman's flank to the back may form a pregnant woman's abdominal band. The lower end of the second member is fixed to the lower end of the first member, and the upper end of the second member becomes a free end without being fixed to the first member. The third member extends from both ends of the first and second members. That is, the band body may be formed by the first member applied to the pregnant woman's abdomen and the third member applied from the pregnant woman's flank to the back, and the abdomen protecting portion may be formed by the second member.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although it is supposed that the pregnant woman's abdominal band 1 is wound on the abdomen as inner wear, as another embodiment, the pregnant woman's abdominal band 1 is decorated or used in outerwear. It may be wound on the outer garment by making it a colorful color.
