Description

  The present invention relates to a body wearing device having a region covering the lower abdomen of a human body.

  There are many acupoints in the human body, and there are known methods of promoting health maintenance and recovery from illness by applying pressure to the acupressure points. For example, there are acupressure points that promote defecation in the human body, and there are acupressure therapies that improve constipation by applying acupressure to acupoints that have a defecation promoting effect.

  By the way, what can perform the acupressure therapy as described above while performing daily life has been proposed (Patent Documents 1 and 2). The thing of patent document 1 is related with underwear, such as underwear and socks, Comprising: The protrusion is provided in the contact | abutting site | part of the acupoint of the human body of underwear. Thereby, when the underwear of patent document 1 is worn, while a projection body contacts an acupoint, a projection body presses an acupuncture point by the elasticity of underwear, and it can always perform acupressure therapy during wearing. In Patent Document 2, the protrusion provided on the underwear is made of an elastic material such as silicon rubber, and a part of the elastic material is impregnated in the texture of the underwear, so that the protrusion on the underwear Is fixed.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-222 Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-60702

  In each of the above-mentioned patent documents, the symptom is improved by pressing the point. In this case, if the acupressure suitable for symptom improvement cannot be acupressure accurately, the effect of acupressure therapy cannot be expected. For this reason, the thing of each said patent document needs to recognize the position of the acupuncture point suitable for the symptom correctly, and to provide a protrusion correctly in the position of the underwear contact | abutted to the acupoint. However, since the position of the acupoint varies depending on the person and the area of one acupuncture point is small, it is difficult to provide a protrusion so as to accurately contact the desired acupoint. Even if a protrusion is provided at an appropriate position, if the underwear expands or contracts during use due to a change in the posture of the user, the position of the protrusion changes following the expansion or contraction of the underwear. . For this reason, a protrusion may remove | deviate from the position of an acupuncture point during use. Therefore, in each of the above-mentioned patent documents, for example, in order to eliminate constipation, even if a protrusion is provided so as to come into contact with an acupuncture promoting effect of defecation, the acupuncture may not be pressed accurately, and sufficient defecation promotion is achieved. The effect may not be obtained.

  An object of the present invention is to solve these problems of the prior art and to provide a body wearing device that can obtain an effect of promoting defecation with a simple configuration.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a body wearing device having a lower abdominal region covering the lower abdomen of a human body, wherein the lower abdominal region corresponding portion, the right lower abdominal region corresponding portion, and the upper lower abdominal region corresponding portion of the lower abdominal region. At least one is provided with a low stretchable part with low stretchability along the extending direction of the human large intestine , and when worn, the part extending in the circumferential direction of the human torso adjacent to the low stretchable part is stretched It is intended to provide a body-worn device having a highly elastic and highly stretchable part.

According to the body wearing device according to the present invention, since the low expansion / contraction part (part which is difficult to extend) is provided in the lower abdominal region, the part of the lower abdominal part of the human body where the low expansion / contraction part comes into contact has a strong pressure. It will be pressed by the low expansion / contraction part. In this case, the low expansion / contraction part comes into contact or pressure contact with at least one of the left lower abdomen, the right lower abdomen, and the upper lower abdomen. Left lower abdomen The descending colon of the large intestine, the right lower quadrant in the ascending colon of the large intestine, because the upper abdomen that there are transverse colon of the large intestine, low-stretch portion extending colon any of these sites of the large intestine The stool is pushed along the present direction, and the stool accumulated in the large intestine is physically flushed to the exit side, and the bowel movement of the large intestine is promoted to promote defecation. And since the low expansion-contraction part is provided in the lower abdomen area | region of the main-body part, the strength of the contact pressure to a lower abdomen generate | occur | produces by the reciprocation of the lower abdomen by respiration. Thereby, the user can acquire the effect which is massaged only by mounting | wearing.

  Constipation includes flaccid constipation due to a decrease in peristaltic movement of the large intestine, rectal constipation due to a dull nerve in the intestine, and the like, often due to a decrease in the function of the large intestine. Therefore, by directly massaging the large intestine, it is possible to stimulate peristaltic nerves and promote peristaltic movement. Accordingly, if the body wearing device of the present invention is used on a daily basis, the function of the large intestine can be recovered, and it is effective for improving chronic constipation. Moreover, since the large intestine occupies most of the lower abdomen, the area to be pressed by the low expansion / contraction part can be widened by setting the subject to be pressed to the large intestine. Accordingly, there is no need for fine position adjustment of the low stretchable part, and the low stretchable part can press the large intestine with a high probability even if a change in body position occurs during use.

  The said structure WHEREIN: It is desirable for the said low expansion-contraction part to be provided in the said left lower abdominal part corresponding | compatible part at least. The descending colon corresponds to the downstream side of the large intestine and is close to the exit. In the case of non-constipation, there are only soft stool-like stools at this site, whereas solid stool accumulates at this site when constipation occurs. There are many acupuncture points around the descending colon that promote nerves and bowel movements that control the peristalsis of the large intestine. Therefore, defecation can be most effectively promoted by the low stretchable part pressing the left lower abdomen.

  In the mounted state, the low stretchable part is disposed along the extending direction of the human large intestine, and it is desirable that the stretchability gradually increases from the start side of the large intestine toward the exit side. Thereby, since the low expansion-contraction part can press a lower abdominal part with stepwise strength toward the exit side from the start part side of the large intestine, it becomes easy to obtain the effect of physically flushing the stool.

  The said structure WHEREIN: It is desirable for the said main-body part to be the underwear for lower body which has a foot mouth. By having the foot opening, the position of the lower body underwear with respect to the human body is fixed and it is difficult to shift. In addition, since the lower body underwear that a person normally uses can be provided with a function of pressing the large intestine, the user does not feel uncomfortable with the wearing and is easy to use for a long time.

  As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a body wearing device that can obtain an effect of promoting defecation with a simple configuration.

It is a front view of a 1st embodiment of a body wearing implement concerning the present invention. It is explanatory drawing which shows the lower abdomen area | region of the body wearing tool shown in FIG. 1, (a) shows a left lower abdomen corresponding part and a right lower abdomen corresponding part, (b) shows an upper lower abdomen corresponding part. It is a front view which shows the state which mounted | wore the body mounting tool shown in FIG. It is a front view of 2nd Embodiment of the body wearing tool which concerns on this invention. It is a front view of 3rd Embodiment of the body wearing tool which concerns on this invention. It is a front view which shows an implementation product. It is a figure which shows the attachment method of the low expansion-contraction part of implementation goods.

  Hereinafter, with reference to drawings, a body wearing tool concerning an embodiment of the invention is explained concretely. The same or similar parts in the drawings are denoted by the same reference numerals and description thereof is partially omitted.

  FIG. 1 is a front view showing a body wearing tool according to the first embodiment. The body wearing tool in the first embodiment is lower body underwear (shorts in this embodiment) that covers the lower abdomen of the human body. The lower body underwear includes a front body 4 having stretchability in which a foot opening 3 having a lower open shape is formed symmetrically, a rear body 5 having stretchability, an inner crotch front portion and a back body 5 at the lower end of the front body 4. And a gusset portion 6 disposed between the lower end of the inner crotch. As shown in FIG. 2, the lower abdomen region 7 is a part of the lower body underwear that covers the lower abdomen of the human body when worn. In the lower abdominal region 7 of the front body 4, as shown in FIG. 2A, a portion corresponding to the left lower abdominal portion of the human body is a left lower abdominal portion L, and a portion corresponding to the right lower abdominal portion of the human body is a right lower abdominal portion corresponding portion. R, as shown in FIG. 2 (b), a portion corresponding to the upper lower abdomen of the human body is defined as an upper lower abdomen corresponding portion U. Here, the left lower abdomen means the left lower abdomen for the human body to which the body wearing tool of the present invention is attached, and corresponds to the right side in the drawing. The right lower abdomen means the right lower abdomen for the human body to which the body wearing tool of the present invention is attached, and corresponds to the left side in the drawing. The upper lower abdominal part corresponding part U partially overlaps the left lower abdominal part corresponding part L and the right lower abdominal part corresponding part R.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the left lower abdominal part corresponding part L is provided with a low stretchable part 2 that is weak (not easily stretched). “Low stretchability” means that the stretchability is relatively weaker than the portion extending in the circumferential direction of the human torso adjacent to the low stretchable portion 2 (in this embodiment, all except the low stretchable portion). means. In other words, everything except the low stretchable part has a relatively high stretchability than the low stretchable part 2, and this part is referred to as a high stretchable part 8.

  The low stretchable part 2 and the high stretchable part 8 have the same knitting method using the same yarn, and the low stretchable part 2 has a larger yarn amount than the high stretchable part 8. Specifically, the low stretchable part 2 is denser (ie, the degree of stitching) than the high stretchable part 8. Thereby, the low expansion / contraction part 2 becomes harder to extend than the high expansion / contraction part 8, and the elasticity becomes low.

  The low expansion / contraction part 2 has an isosceles trapezoidal shape, and becomes a narrow part 9 having a small width dimension in the human body width direction W on the foot side of the lower abdominal part region 7 and gradually increases toward the trunk side edge 11. Thus, the large wide portion 10 is formed on the trunk side edge side. Since the wide portion 10 and the narrow portion 9 have the same yarn and the same knitting method, the stretchability of these portions is the same. However, by providing the wide portion 10 and the narrow portion 9 to make the width of the low stretchable portion 2 different, the stretchability of the lower abdominal region 7 becomes weak on the wide portion 10 side, and gradually toward the narrow portion 9 side. Therefore, the pressing force of the low expansion / contraction part 2 decreases gradually toward the narrow part 9 side.

  In a state where the body wearing tool as described above is worn on the human body, the lower abdominal region 7 covers the lower abdomen of the human body as shown in FIG. In this case, the foot mouth 3 becomes a fixed part with respect to the human body. In this way, the torso side edge 11 and the foot mouth 3 serve as a fixing portion for the human body, so that the position of the lower body undergarment relative to the human body is fixed and is difficult to shift in both the human body height direction H and the width direction W.

  The low expansion / contraction part 2 contacts the left lower abdominal part of the human body along the human body height direction H. At this time, the wide part 10 of the low expansion / contraction part 2 contacts the upper side of the left lower abdomen, and the narrow part 9 of the low expansion / contraction part 2 contacts the lower side of the left lower abdomen.

  The large intestine extends in the lower abdomen of the human body. The upper part of the large intestine exists below the right lower abdomen, the ascending colon extending from the starting part along the body height direction H to the lower right abdomen, the transverse colon extending along the body width direction W from the upper lower abdomen, the lower left The descending colon extending along the human body height direction H extends in order in the abdomen. Furthermore, the descending colon, the sigmoid colon, and the rectum exist, and the rectum is the exit of the large intestine. The descending colon corresponds to the downstream side of the large intestine and is close to the exit. In the case of non-constipation, there are only soft stool-like stools at this site, whereas solid stool accumulates at this site when constipation occurs. There are many acupuncture points around the descending colon that promote nerves and bowel movements that control the peristalsis of the large intestine.

  As described above, the low expansion / contraction part 2 contacts the left lower abdomen along the human body height direction H. At this time, the pressure applied at the part where the low expansion / contraction part 2 contacts is partially stronger than the pressure applied at the part where the high expansion / contraction part 8 contacts. In addition, due to reciprocation of the lower abdomen due to respiration, the contact pressure to the lower abdomen of the low stretchable part 2 is increased or decreased. As a result, the stool accumulated in the large intestine (in this case, the descending colon) can be physically swept away to the exit side, and peristaltic movement of the large intestine can be promoted to effectively promote defecation. In this way, the user can obtain a massage effect simply by wearing the body wearing device of the present invention.

  Constipation includes flaccid constipation due to a decrease in peristaltic movement of the large intestine, rectal constipation due to a dull nerve in the intestine, and the like, often due to a decrease in the function of the large intestine. Therefore, by directly massaging the large intestine, it is possible to stimulate peristaltic nerves and promote peristaltic movement. In the present embodiment, since the body part 1 is an undergarment for a lower body that is usually used by a person, the user does not feel uncomfortable with the wearing and is easy to use for a long time. As described above, when the body wearing device of the present invention is used on a daily basis, the function of the large intestine can be recovered and effective for improving chronic constipation. In addition, since the large intestine occupies most of the lower abdomen, the area to be pressed by the low expansion / contraction part 2 can be widened by setting the pressing target to the large intestine. Thereby, even if the position change in use arises without the fine position adjustment of the low expansion-contraction part 2, the low expansion-contraction part 2 can press the large intestine with high probability.

  In this case, the width dimension of the low expansion / contraction part 2 in the human body width direction W is gradually reduced from the start side of the large intestine (upper side of the descending colon) toward the exit side (lower side of the descending colon). As a result, the pressing force of the low expansion / contraction part 2 is greatest on the upper side of the descending colon and decreases downward, so that the descending colon can be pressed stepwise. It becomes easy to obtain.

  In the first embodiment, the low stretchable part 2 is provided in the left lower abdominal part corresponding part L. However, the low stretchable part 2 along the human body height direction H is provided in the right lower abdominal part corresponding part R to press the ascending colon. Alternatively, a low stretchable part 2 along the human body width direction W may be provided in the upper lower abdominal part corresponding part U to press the transverse colon. When the low stretchable part 2 is provided in the right lower abdominal part corresponding part R, it is desirable that the foot side is a wide part and the trunk side edge side is a narrow part. When the low stretchable part 2 is provided in the upper lower abdomen corresponding part U, it is desirable that the right lower abdomen side is a wide part and the left lower abdomen side is a narrow part.

  FIG. 4 shows a body wearing device according to the second embodiment of the present invention. This body wearing tool presses any two of the left lower abdomen, right lower abdomen, and upper lower abdomen. That is, the lower body underwear is provided with the first low stretchable part 22 in the left lower abdomen corresponding part L in the lower abdominal region 7 and two second low stretchable parts 23a and 23b in the upper lower abdomen corresponding part U. Yes. The boundary between the first low stretchable part 22 and the second low stretchable parts 23a, 23b may be continuous or discontinuous. In the present embodiment, the first low stretchable part 22a and the second low stretchable part 22a The boundaries between the portions 23a and 23b are discontinuous. The high stretchable part 28 is all except the low stretchable parts 22, 23a, 23b.

  The low expansion / contraction parts 22, 23a, 23b and the high expansion / contraction part 28 have the same knitting method using different yarns. The low stretchable parts 22, 23a, 23b are composed of a low stretchable thread such as cotton, hemp, rayon, polyester, polypropylene, polyethylene, acrylic, and the high stretchable part 28 is made of, for example, nylon or urethane. A low-stretch fiber such as a high-stretch thread, a rubber thread, a covering thread with urethane fibers on the outside, or a crimped thread that twists the fiber in a spiral by heat. Constructed from thread that has been processed to increase elasticity. As a result, the low stretchable parts 22, 23a, 23b are less likely to stretch than the high stretchable part 28, and the stretchability is lowered.

  The first low expansion / contraction part 22 has a triangular shape, and becomes a narrow part 29 having a small width dimension in the human body width direction W on the foot side of the lower abdominal region 7 and gradually increases toward the torso side edge. The wide side 30 is formed on the side edge side. Thereby, in the 1st low expansion-contraction part 22, a stretching property becomes weak in the trunk | drum side edge side, and a stretching property becomes strong gradually toward the foot mouth side. The second low stretchable parts 23a, 23b are elongated rectangular shapes having a constant width dimension in the human body height direction H, and the stretchability is constant.

  In the state where the body wearing tool according to the second embodiment is worn on the human body, the lower abdomen region 7 of the lower body underwear covers the lower abdomen of the human body. The first low stretchable part 22 abuts on the lower left abdomen of the human body along the human body height direction H, and the second low stretchable parts 23 a and 23 b abut on the upper lower abdomen of the human body along the human body width direction W. As a result, the descending colon is pressed by the first low expansion / contraction part 22, and the transverse colon is pressed by the second low expansion / contraction part 23a, 23b. At this time, the wide portion 30 of the first low stretchable portion 22 contacts the upper side of the left lower abdomen.

  Thus, the low stretchable parts 22, 23a, 23b of the body wearing device of the second embodiment press two places, the left lower abdomen and the upper lower abdomen, and can press the large intestine over a wide range. The defecation promotion effect can be further improved.

  In the second embodiment, the low expansion / contraction part 22, 23a, 23b is provided in the left lower abdominal part corresponding part L and the upper lower abdominal part corresponding part U, but the low expansion / contraction part is provided in the left lower abdominal part corresponding part L and the right lower abdominal part corresponding part R. It may be provided to press the descending colon and the ascending colon, or may be configured to press the ascending colon and the transverse colon by providing a low stretchable part in the right lower abdominal part corresponding part R and the upper lower abdominal part corresponding part U.

  FIG. 5 shows a body wearing device according to a third embodiment of the present invention. This body wearing tool presses all of the lower left abdomen, the lower right abdomen, and the upper lower abdomen. That is, the lower body underwear is provided with a first low stretchable part 32 in the left lower abdomen corresponding part L in the lower abdominal region 7 and a second low stretchable part 33 in the upper lower abdominal part corresponding part U. A third low expansion / contraction part 34 is provided in R. The boundary between the second low stretchable part 33 and the first low stretchable part 32 and the boundary between the second low stretchable part 33 and the third low stretchable part 34 may be continuous or discontinuous. In the embodiment, the second low expansion / contraction part 33 is continuous with the first low expansion / contraction part 32 and the third low expansion / contraction part 34. The high stretchable part 38 is a part corresponding to the lower abdominal region 7.

  The low stretchable portions 32, 33, and 34 and the high stretchable portion 38 have the same knitting method using the same yarn. For example, a resin such as urethane, rubber, or acrylic is applied to the low stretchable portions 32, 33, and 34. As a result, the low stretchable parts 32, 33, 34 are less likely to stretch than the high stretchable part 38, and the stretchability is reduced.

  In a state where the body wearing tool according to the third embodiment is worn on the human body, the lower abdomen region 7 of the main body 31 covers the lower abdomen of the human body. The first low stretchable part 32 contacts the lower left abdominal part of the human body along the human body height direction H, and the second low stretchable part 33 contacts the upper lower abdominal part of the human body along the human body width direction W. The stretchable part 34 abuts on the lower right abdomen of the human body along the human body height direction H. As a result, the descending colon is pressed by the first low expansion / contraction part 32, the transverse colon is pressed by the second low expansion / contraction part 33, and the ascending colon is pressed by the third low expansion / contraction part 34.

  Thus, the low expansion / contraction parts 32, 33, and 34 of the body wearing device of the third embodiment press all of the left lower abdomen, the right lower abdomen, and the upper lower abdomen, and press the large intestine in a wider range. Therefore, the defecation promotion effect can be further improved.

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, this invention is not limited to this, A various change is possible. The shape of the low expansion / contraction portion can be various shapes such as an isosceles trapezoid and a rectangle, an unequal leg trapezoid, a triangle, a square, a polygon, a circle, an ellipse, and a bowl. Furthermore, the low expansion / contraction part can be discontinuous along the direction orthogonal to the extending direction (that is, a plurality of rows), or can be discontinuous along the extending direction.

  When the low stretchable portion and the high stretchable portion are formed using the same yarn, the stretchability can be increased or decreased by making the knitting method different between the low stretchable portion and the high stretchable portion. When forming the low stretchable part and the high stretchable part with the same thread using the same thread, for example, with a thread having thermoplasticity such as synthetic fibers such as polyester, polypropylene, polyethylene, nylon, urethane, etc. A lower stretchable part can be formed by forming an undergarment for the lower body and applying heat to the part that forms the low stretchable part to melt the yarn. That is, if it is the thread | yarn comprised by the synthetic fiber which consists of a high molecular compound, a low expansion-contraction part can be formed by applying heat and making it harden | cure in a film form. When the low stretchable part and the high stretchable part are formed with the same knitting method using different yarns, the thickness of the low stretchable part and the high stretchable part can be made different to increase or decrease the stretchability. . Even when different yarns are used for the low stretch part and the high stretch part, the low stretch part and the high stretch part have different knitting methods, the degree of yarn is made different, and the resin amount is different. You may apply | coat or heat the part which forms the low elasticity of the thread | yarn which has thermoplasticity, and you may melt a thread | yarn. There are multiple methods for forming low stretchable parts (different knitting methods, yarn amount, stitches, yarn thickness, yarn type, etc., resin is applied, heat is applied to melt the yarn), one low stretch When forming the portion, the low stretchable portion may be formed using a plurality of methods.

  The main body 1 is not limited to the lower body underwear as long as it has the lower abdominal region 7 that covers the lower abdomen of the human body, but only covers the lower crotch such as trousers and stockings, only the abdomen such as the abdomen and corset It may be configured by a body covering, a body suit, a body covering up to the upper body such as an underwear, a belt or the like.

  The range of the lower abdominal region 7 can be arbitrarily set. The lower abdomen region 7 may have a double structure by overlapping two pieces of fabric. Thereby, the massage effect by the low expansion-contraction part 2 and the heat retention effect by the lower abdominal part area | region 7 combine, and can defecate further.

  A body wearing tool of the present invention (hereinafter referred to as an “implemented product”) was actually manufactured, and a test was performed to measure the pressure applied to the body to be worn at the low stretchable portion and the high stretchable portion. The body part of the implemented product was a shorts-type lower body underwear as shown in FIG. The mounted body was a torso (mannequin) and a display body PSP88 (Kiya Co., Ltd.) was used.

  The high stretchable part was formed in a region covering the lower abdomen, and the size thereof was 10.5 cm in the length dimension α1 in the human body length direction L and 25 cm in the length dimension α2 in the human body width direction W. The high stretchable part was composed of stretchable fabric (knitted fabric) made of 72% nylon and 28% urethane.

  The low stretchable part is formed at a position corresponding to the left lower abdomen in the mounted state, and the size thereof is 10 cm in the length dimension α3 in the human body length direction L and 7 cm in the length dimension α4 in the human body width direction W. The low stretchable part was formed by manually sewing a non-stretchable cotton thread (100% cotton thread) to the high stretchable part. As shown in FIG. 7, the low expansion / contraction portion is attached with a vertical sewing width α5 of 6 mm and a horizontal sewing width α6 of 8 mm. As the cotton yarn, Dalma household yarn thick mouth (20/3) manufactured by Yokota Corporation was used.

  About the said implementation goods, the pressure to the torso in a low expansion-contraction part and a high expansion-contraction part was measured (Air pack type contact pressure gauge AMI3037, an air pack type: 2 standards (made by AIM techno company)). Specifically, with the implementation product mounted on the torso, an air pack was installed between the implementation product and the torso, and the pressure when the air pack was pressed was measured with a contact pressure gauge.

As a result, the pressure applied at the high stretch portion was 12.8 gf / cm ² , while the pressure applied at the low stretch portion was 19.9 gf / cm ² . Thereby, it was found that the adhesion pressure at the low expansion / contraction part is higher than the adhesion pressure at the high expansion / contraction part. Therefore, a body wearing device that is provided with a low expansion / contraction part as in the present invention and that is provided with a high expansion / contraction part in a portion extending in the circumferential direction of the human torso adjacent to the low expansion / contraction part is worn in the low expansion / contraction part in the mounted state. The pressure increased, and it was found that the mounted body can be pressed by the low stretchable part.
