Description

  The present invention relates to an auxiliary device for preventing hyperflexion and hyperextension to prevent joint hyperflexion and hyperextension and skin and muscle hyperextension caused by daily operations and exercise.

Conventionally, the range of motion of joints, skin, and muscles has been moderately limited as a means of preventing joint overflexion and overextension and skin and muscle overextension caused by daily movement and exercise, and preventing and treating dislocations and sprains. Technology is used. Among these, elastic bandages have a function that allows moderately limiting the range of motion of joints, skin, and muscles of sites related to prevention and treatment (hereinafter referred to as prevention sites). It is also frequently used in the field.

However, the function that makes it possible to moderately limit the range of motion of joints and skin and muscles of the preventive part provided by the elastic bandages is based on the contraction force of the elastic material (hereinafter referred to as latent potential) generated by stretching the elastic material. It is demonstrated by utilizing the contraction force). Therefore, if the potential contraction force required to limit the range of motion of joints, skin and muscles in the preventive part of the stretchable bandages attached is weak, the range of motion of joints, skin and muscles in the preventive part In many cases, it is difficult to restrict, and the effect of wearing cannot be expected. In addition, even if the potential contraction force is too strong, it is difficult not only to limit the range of motion of joints and skin and muscles of the preventive site appropriately, but also the blood circulation and distress occur at the preventive site, causing adverse effects due to wearing. Giving is not uncommon.

Therefore, in order to utilize the means to moderately limit the range of motion of joints and skin and muscles in the prevention site using elastic bandages, it is essential to acquire the wearing technique to generate appropriate latent contraction force, There is a problem that it is difficult for a person who is unskilled in wearing an adhesive bandage (hereinafter referred to as a beginner) to utilize the functions of the elastic bandages.

In some cases, sportswear that produces the same effect as taping and prevents sports obstacles such as contusion, bruise, and fleshing (see, for example, Patent Document 1), and without inhibiting the free movement of the foot, Ankle supporters that prevent sprains (for example, see Patent Document 2), and the lower leg parts are reinforced to prevent ankle sprains or prevent recurrence, and can be easily worn by non-experts A garment for protecting the lower leg that can be worn and has a good wearing feeling (see, for example, Patent Document 3) has been proposed.

However, the force applied to the prevention site during sports, and sometimes the impact, depends on various conditions including the type of sport, the difficulty of the competition, and individual skills, and prevents dislocation and sprains from the force applied to the prevention site during sports. In order to do so, it is necessary to respond flexibly to each prevention site. Therefore, only wearing conventional sportswear including the above, ankle supporters, and crus protective clothing prevents joint overbending and overextension and skin and muscle overextension caused by daily movement and exercise. It is not easy, and there is no means to solve such disadvantages properly.
