Description
本発明は、足置きに変形することが可能な松葉杖に関する．The present invention relates to a crutch that can be transformed into a footrest.
骨折やアキレス腱の断裂などの怪我をした時，術後にしばしば「足を下に下げておかないように」と医師から指導をされる．そのような怪我をした人は大抵松葉杖を使用しており，椅子に腰かけようとした時に一人で足を乗せる椅子や台などの足置きを用意する事は容易ではない． When you get injured, such as a fractured bone or a broken Achilles tendon, your doctor will often advise you to keep your foot down. People with such injuries usually use crutches, and it is not easy to prepare a footrest such as a chair or a stand on which a person can put his/her feet when he/she tries to sit on the chair.
これまでに出願されている特許などを見ると，松葉杖に腰かけ用の椅子がついているもの（特許文献１），松葉杖使用時に足を置いておくもの（特許文献２）、松葉杖に布を取り付け使用しながら腰を掛けることができるもの（特許文献３）などのアイディアがあるが，いずれも椅子に座った状態の足置きが欲しいという要望を叶えることが出来ない． Looking at the patents that have been filed so far, ones that have a chair for sitting on the crutch (Patent Document 1), ones that keep your feet when using the crutch (Patent Document 2), and a cloth attached to the crutch are used. However, there are ideas such as those that allow you to sit down (Patent Document 3), but none of them can satisfy the demand for a footrest while sitting on a chair.
背景技術に記した通り，怪我した人が椅子に腰かけようとした際，簡単に足置きを用意，設置することが出来ない． As mentioned in the background art, when an injured person tries to sit on a chair, he cannot easily prepare and install a footrest.
そこで本発明は，松葉杖を使用している怪我人に対して松葉杖の用途の多様化を図り，足置きとしても使用することが出来る松葉杖を実現しようとするものである． Therefore, the present invention intends to realize a crutch that can be used as a footrest by diversifying the uses of the crutch for an injured person who uses the crutch.
本発明は、請求項１に示すように、左右一対の松葉杖において、松葉杖上部と下部、下部兼支え、そしてそれらを連結する連結部によって松葉杖本体を形成する。上部と下部を連結部で約９０度折り曲げ、支えを展開して地面に置く。松葉杖の連結部付近のゴム格納部からゴムを渡しとめることで足置きを形成できるものである。具体的には以下の特徴を有する。 According to the first aspect of the present invention, in a pair of right and left crutches, the crutch main body is formed by the crutch upper and lower portions, the lower lower supporting portion, and the connecting portion connecting them. Bend the upper part and the lower part about 90 degrees at the connecting part, expand the support and put it on the ground. The footrest can be formed by releasing the rubber from the rubber storage portion near the connecting portion of the crutch. Specifically, it has the following features.
（１）本発明は、左右一対の松葉杖の各々において、松葉杖上部と松葉杖下部と前記松葉杖上部および前記松葉杖下部を連結する連結部を有する着席時用足置き兼松葉杖であって、前記連結部に足置き部のゴム部材を格納する機構（ゴム部材格納部という）を有し、前記松葉杖下部に足置き展開時の補助脚を設けており、前記松葉杖上部および前記松葉杖下部を前記連結部で折り曲げて、前記補助脚を前記松葉杖下部から展開し地面に置き、前記ゴム部材格納部から取り出したゴムをつないで前記一対の松葉杖を固定することにより、歩行時に使用していた松葉杖を着席時に使用可能な足置きに変形することを可能にした着席時用足置き兼松葉杖である。(1) The present invention relates to a sitting footrest and crutch having a connecting portion for connecting the upper crutch, the lower crutch, the upper crutch and the lower crutch in each of the pair of left and right crutches. It has a mechanism for storing the rubber member of the footrest part (referred to as a rubber member storage part), and an auxiliary leg at the time of deploying the footrest is provided on the lower part of the crutch, and the upper part of the crutch and the lower part of the crutch are bent at the connecting part. By extending the auxiliary leg from the lower part of the crutch and placing it on the ground, and fixing the pair of crutches by connecting the rubber taken out from the rubber member storage part, the crutch used when walking can be used when sitting It is a footrest and crutch for seating that can be transformed into a simple footrest.
（２）本発明は、（１）に加えて、前記連結部において、折り曲げることで松葉杖を折りたたむことを可能にし、着席時に使用可能な足置きに変形した際に展開する前記補助脚において、歩行時に松葉杖として使用する間は磁石で松葉杖下部に固定され、歩行時の妨げにならないようしており、前記松葉杖上部および前記松葉杖下部を連結する連結部を覆って固定し、前記松葉杖を直立状態に維持する留め輪を有することを特徴とする。(2) In addition to (1), the present invention makes it possible to fold the crutch at the connecting portion by folding, and to walk when the auxiliary leg is expanded when deformed into a footrest that can be used when sitting. While using it as a crutch at times, it is fixed to the lower part of the crutch with a magnet so that it does not interfere with walking, it is fixed by covering the connecting part that connects the upper part of the crutch and the lower part of the crutch, and puts the crutch upright. It is characterized by having retaining rings.
本研究の足置き変形式松葉杖は、松葉杖を簡単に足置きに変形することができるため、医療的な理由で足を上げておく必要のあり、かつ松葉杖を使用している怪我人が、新たに何かを持つ必要がなく、普段使っている松葉杖を２つの役割で使用することができる．椅子に座った状態で簡単に組み立てることができるため怪我をしている人にとって易しい発明になっている。 The footrest deformable crutch of this study can easily transform the crutch into a footrest, so it is necessary to raise the foot for medical reasons, and an injury person using the crutch can You don't have to have anything to do, and you can use your usual crutch in two roles. It can be easily assembled while sitting on a chair, making it an easy invention for an injured person.
さらに、松葉杖は使わない時は邪魔になっており、例えば壁に立てかけると倒れたり、床に置くと広く場所をとるが、その松葉杖を足置きに変形するため一石二鳥な発明である。 In addition, crutches are an obstacle when not in use. For example, if they lean against a wall and fall down, or if they are placed on the floor, they take up a large space, but since the crutch transforms into a footrest, it is an invention of two birds with one stone.
関節部を輪とピンで固定することにより、通常の松葉杖としての耐久性も問題がない．また、足置きとしても松葉杖下部に支えを設置したので倒れる心配もない． By fixing the joint part with a ring and a pin, there is no problem with the durability as a normal crutch. Also, as a foot rest, the support is placed under the crutch so there is no risk of falling.

In addition, FIG. 2 is a side view of the footrest deformable crutch of the present invention. The modified footrest crutch of the present invention comprises a crutch upper part 1 and a crutch lower part 2, a crutch lower part support 3 and a connecting part 10 for connecting the crutch upper part 1 and the crutch lower part 2. The connecting portion 11 is located in the middle of the crutch, and the footrest rubber storage case 7 is arranged on the connecting portion 10.
When the main body is used as a crutch, in order to prevent the upper part 1 of the crutch and the lower part 2 of the crutch from moving, the connecting part 10 of the upper part 1 of the crutch and the lower part 2 of the crutch is fastened with the retaining ring 5, and the retaining ring 5 and the upper part of the crutch 1 are fixed. It is used after fixing it by inserting the retaining pin 6 into the open hole. The retaining ring 5 covers the connecting portion 10 between the upper portion 1 of the crutch and the lower portion 2 of the crutch, and the retaining pin 6 connects the lower portion 2 of the crutch and the retaining ring to maintain the upright state.
松葉杖下部２または松葉杖下部兼支え３のどちらかに磁石が取り付けられており、また他方に磁石または鉄板等の磁性体材料が取り付けられている。そして、松葉杖下部２と松葉杖下部兼支え３をこれら磁石等によってつなぎ、松葉杖下部兼支え３と松葉杖下部２が連結状態を維持する。尚、留め輪は連結部１１に配置されており、松葉杖を折り曲げ時は連結部から松葉杖上部１と松葉杖下部２の方に動かすか、取り外しできるようになっている。 A magnet is attached to either the lower portion of the crutch 2 or the lower portion of the crutch and the support 3, and a magnetic material such as a magnet or an iron plate is attached to the other. Then, the lower part of the crutch 2 and the lower part of the crutch 3 and the support 3 are connected by these magnets or the like, and the lower part of the crutch 3 and the support 3 and the lower part of the crutch 2 are maintained in a connected state. The retaining ring is arranged in the connecting portion 11, and when the crutch is bent, it can be moved from the connecting portion toward the upper part 1 of the crutch and the lower part 2 of the crutch or can be removed.
図３は、本発明の足置き変形松葉杖の足置き形態の側面図であり、図４は、本発明の足置き変形式松葉杖の足置き使用状態を示す斜視図である。本体を足置きとして使用する場合のために、松葉杖上部１と松葉杖下部２の連結部１１で折り曲げ（たとえば、約９０度）、松葉杖下部２と松葉杖上部１の連結部近くの穴と留め輪５を留めピン６でつなぐ。松葉杖下部兼支え３を松葉杖支えの回転部４により回転させ、松葉杖下部兼支え３の上部にあるフックのような引っ掛かり（図示せず）を松葉杖下部２にかけ、固定する。二つの足置き変形松葉杖をゴム格納ケース７ａ、７ｂからゴム８ａ、８ｂを引き抜き、バックル９ａ、９ｂで連結することで足置きとして使用する。 FIG. 3 is a side view of a footrest modified crutch of the present invention in a footrest form, and FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a footrest modified crutch of the present invention in a footrest use state. When the main body is used as a footrest, the crutch upper part 1 and the crutch lower part 2 are bent at a connecting part 11 (for example, about 90 degrees), and a hole near the connecting part between the crutch lower part 2 and the crutch upper part 1 and a retaining ring 5 are formed. And fasten with 6 pins. The crutch lower part support 3 is rotated by the crutch support rotating part 4, and a hook-like catch (not shown) on the upper part of the crutch lower part support 3 is hooked and fixed on the crutch lower part 2. Two modified foot crutches are used as a foot rest by pulling out the rubbers 8a and 8b from the rubber storage cases 7a and 7b and connecting them with the buckles 9a and 9b.
ゴムは両方の松葉杖の連結部１０に配置された足置きゴム格納ケース７から引き出して、図４に示すように中央部でつないで使用することができる。両方のゴムの先端部をバックル等の留め具９ａ、９ｂを取り付けて、それらの留め具を連結することで固定される。ゴムは足をかけてもたわみが小さいテンションを有し、かつ破壊しない程度の強度が必要である。また、ゴムの代わりに、布、皮革、プラスチック、金属等でも良く、形状は、線状、ひも状、帯状のものを使用できる。 The rubber can be pulled out from the footrest rubber storage case 7 arranged at the connecting portion 10 of both crutches, and can be used by connecting it at the central portion as shown in FIG. The ends of both rubbers are fixed by attaching buckles or other fasteners 9a and 9b and connecting the fasteners. The rubber must have a tension so that it does not flex easily even when it is put on a foot, and it must have such strength that it does not break. Further, instead of rubber, cloth, leather, plastic, metal, or the like may be used, and the shape may be linear, string, or strip.
松葉杖下部兼支え３は、松葉杖上部１と松葉杖下部２の連結部を折り曲げて地面に置いたときに、松葉杖上部１と松葉杖下部２が倒れないように支えるための足であり、すなわち、三脚状態にする部分である。松葉杖下部兼支え３は、図１および図２に示すように、松葉杖下部２において、松葉杖上部１と松葉杖下部２の連結部１０の下側に回転部４を介して取り付けられている。松葉杖下部２と松葉杖下部兼支え３は回転部４において回転軸で連結している。通常の松葉杖として使用するときは、松葉杖下部兼支え３は、図１および図２に示すように、松葉杖下部２に密着してほぼ一体となっており、松葉杖上部１と松葉杖下部２の連結部を折り曲げて地面に置くときは、松葉杖下部兼支え３を松葉杖支えの回転部４により回転させ、松葉杖下部兼支え３の上部が松葉杖下部２にかかるように固定する。松葉杖下部２と松葉杖下部兼支え３を密着させる方法として、松葉杖下部２と松葉杖下部兼支え３のどちらか一方に磁石を配置し、他方に逆極の磁石または磁性体を配置しておけば、強固に固定できる。あるいは、松葉杖下部２と松葉杖下部兼支え３のどちらか一方または両方に固定具（たとえば、面ファスナー、雄雌固定具）を取り付けて固定することもできる。 The crutch lower part/support 3 is a foot for supporting the crutch upper part 1 and the crutch lower part 2 so as not to fall when the connecting part of the crutch upper part 1 and the crutch lower part 2 is bent and placed on the ground, that is, a tripod state. It is the part to make. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the crutch lower part/support 3 is attached to the lower part of the crutch 2 below the connecting part 10 of the upper part 1 of the crutch and the lower part 2 of the crutch via a rotary part 4. The lower part 2 of the crutch and the lower part support 3 of the crutch are connected to each other by a rotating shaft at a rotating portion 4. When used as a normal crutch, the lower part of the crutch and the support 3 are in close contact with the lower part of the crutch 2 and are almost integrated as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, and the connecting part between the upper part 1 of the crutch and the lower part 2 of the crutch. When folding and placing on the ground, the crutch lower part support 3 is rotated by the rotation part 4 of the crutch support, and the crutch lower part support 3 is fixed so that the upper part of the crutch lower part support 3 is placed on the crutch lower part 2. As a method of closely contacting the lower part of the crutch 2 and the lower part of the crutch and the support 3, if a magnet is arranged on one of the lower part of the crutch 2 and the lower part of the crutch and the support 3 and a magnet or a magnetic material of opposite polarity is arranged on the other side, Can be firmly fixed. Alternatively, a fixture (for example, a hook-and-loop fastener or a male/female fixture) can be attached and fixed to one or both of the lower crutch 2 and the lower crutch/support 3.
足置き変形松葉杖を構成する骨組みである松葉杖上部１と松葉杖下部２、松葉杖下部兼支え３およびその連結部を留める留め輪５、留めピン６などは、使用者に高齢者や歩行に支障のある人が多いと思われることから、一定の強度に加えて取り扱いやすい軽量の素材が望ましい。 The crutch upper part 1 and the crutch lower part 2, which are the frameworks of the foot-placed modified crutch, the crutch lower part/support 3 and the retaining ring 5 and the retaining pin 6 for fixing the connecting portion, etc., interfere with the elderly and walking. Since it seems that there are many people, a lightweight material that is easy to handle in addition to a certain level of strength is desirable.
松葉杖を使用し、かつ安静時に足を下げてはいけない怪我人が安易に使用することができるので医療現場で利用可能である。 It can be used in the medical field because it can be easily used by an injured person who uses a crutch and does not have to lower his legs at rest.
