The medical gown shown in Patent Document 1 mentioned above requires tying the strings together when it is worn, which requires time and effort. In particular, tying the strings together in places that cannot be seen, such as around the neck, requires more effort and takes more time to wear.

An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems and provide a medical gown that can be easily worn by a wearer by applying and locking a male hook-and-loop fastener to a nonwoven fabric sheet.

To achieve the above object, a medical gown according to the present invention is a medical gown comprising a non-woven fabric sheet that has an opening and closing part that opens left and right on the back side of the wearer and covers the torso and arms of the wearer. The opening/closing part is provided between the edges of the pair of back parts on the back side, and the base of one end of the band-shaped male hook-and-loop fastener is locked to the inner surface of one of the back parts near the edge. The opening and closing part is closed and worn by locking the locking surface to the outer surface of the other back surface , and the base part is larger than the tip of the male hook-and-loop fastener. The male hook-and-loop fastener has a narrow width and is rolled up with the locking surface inside, and the free end, which is the tip of the locking surface, is brought into contact with the base, and at the same time, It is characterized in that it can be temporarily fixed by being latched to one of the back surfaces .

The medical gown according to the present invention allows the wearer to quickly and reliably put on the gown by allowing the male hook-and-loop fastener to be locked to the nonwoven fabric sheet serving as the back surface.

It is a front view of the medical gown of an Example. FIG. 3 is a rear view with the opening/closing part open. FIG. 3 is a rear view with the opening/closing part closed. FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the male hook-and-loop fastener when worn. FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the male hook-and-loop fastener when it is not worn.

The present invention will be explained in detail based on illustrated embodiments.
FIG. 1 is a front view of the medical gown, and FIG. 2 is a rear view of the medical gown with the opening and closing portion open. The medical gown 1 is made of a nonwoven fabric sheet that is used to cover the torso and arms of a doctor, nurse, etc. during, for example, a surgical operation, and is, for example, disposable.

This type of medical gown 1 often has an opening/closing part 2 that is closed along the top and bottom of the back, and has a front part 3 that covers the wearer's front shoulders, chest, and abdomen, and a front part 3 that covers the wearer's back shoulders, chest, and abdomen. It includes left and right back parts 4a and 4b that cover the back and buttocks, and a pair of sleeve parts 5a and 5b that cover the left and right arms of the wearer from the shoulders to the wrists, respectively.

The opening/closing part 2 is located between the edges 4a' and 4b' of the back side parts 4a and 4b, so that the edges 4a' and 4b' open left and right on the back side of the torso of the medical gown 1. It is being done.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the front part 3 and the back parts 4a and 4b are made by folding back one continuous nonwoven fabric sheet at both sides, and the opening and closing part 2 is formed between the back parts 4a and 4b. . The shoulder portions 6 are connected by sewing or adhesive as shown by dotted lines.

Before wearing, the back parts 4a and 4b are separated from each other at the opening/closing part 2, as shown in FIG. The edges 4a' and 4b' are arranged to overlap each other with the edge 4a' facing upward.

In addition, a hole through which the wearer's head passes is provided in the center between both shoulders 6, and a front hole 7a provided in the front portion 3 is provided at the throat to facilitate movement of the neck. It has a semicircular shape to expose it, and the back hole part 7b on the side of the back parts 4a and 4b has a relatively shallow arc shape.

Further, the sleeve portions 5a, 5b are formed into a tapered cylindrical shape by sewing or the like as shown by dotted lines, and are attached to the front portion 3 and back portions 4a, 4b on both sides of the shoulder portion 6 by sewing or the like. The ends of the sleeves 5a, 5b on the back side are slightly shortened, and the lengthened ends on the front side are provided with a finger hole 5c through which the wearer's thumb, for example, is inserted.

As shown in FIG. 4, a male hook-and-loop fastener in the form of a band is provided on the back side of the edge 4a' of the back surface 4a at the top and center of the opening/closing section 2 as a locking means for locking the opening/closing section 2. A narrow base portion 8a of No. 8 is attached by sewing or the like as shown by dotted lines with the locking surface 8b facing the back surface portion 4b side. On one side of the locking surface 8b of the male hook-and-loop fastener 8, a large number of hook-shaped or mushroom-shaped hook portions, which constitute the male hook of the hook-and-loop fastener, are formed of, for example, high-density polyethylene resin. The hook portion of the locking surface 8b can be locked by intertwining with the fibers of the nonwoven fabric sheet forming the back surface 4b.

As the nonwoven fabric sheet used in the medical gown 1 according to the present invention, polypropylene, polyamide, polyethylene, polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyurethane, cellulose fibers, and composite fibers thereof can be used.

In addition, in order to lock the male hook-and-loop fastener 8 to the nonwoven fabric sheet, the size and shape of the hook portion of the male hook-and-loop fastener 8 to be locked are determined by the length, thickness, and spacing of the fibers in the nonwoven fabric sheet. Of course, it must be compatible. If these relationships are inappropriate, the locking characteristics will deteriorate.

Furthermore, if the locking characteristics of the male hook-and-loop fastener 8 are made particularly strong in the longitudinal direction by, for example, aligning the hook portions, even if the back portions 4a and 4b are pulled to both sides, The opening/closing part 2 is prevented from opening easily.

In addition, in the male type hook-and-loop fastener 8 before wearing, as shown in FIG. By locking, the male hook-and-loop fastener 8 can be placed at a predetermined position so that it will not be unduly locked to the nonwoven fabric sheet when the male hook and loop fastener 8 is not worn.

When using the medical gown 1, the wearer passes both arms through the sleeves 5a and 5b with the front section 3 facing forward. After passing the hand to the tip of the sleeve portions 5a, 5b, insert the thumb into the finger hole 5c. As a result, the sleeves 5a, 5b are sufficiently pulled up to the wrists, sufficiently covering the arms, and the cuffs do not roll up.

After that, put your arms around the back parts 4a and 4b, close the opening/closing part 2, open the locking surface 8b of the male hook-and-loop fastener 8 rounded at the upper part of the back part 4a, and By pressing against the nonwoven fabric sheet, the locking surface 8b is easily locked to the nonwoven fabric sheet. Furthermore, the male hook-and-loop fastener 8 attached to the center of the back part 4a is similarly locked to the back part 4b, so that the opening/closing part 2 is locked in the closed state and the medical gown 1 cannot be worn. Complete. Furthermore, if necessary, medical gloves may be worn on the hands.

When wearing this medical gown 1, the locking surface 8b of the male hook-and-loop fastener 8 can be locked at any point other than the edge 4b' of the back part 4b, so the girth of the medical gown 1 can be made larger. Once manufactured, it can be used in any size without being restricted by the wearer's body shape.

When the medical procedure is finished and the medical gown 1 is to be removed, the male hook-and-loop fastener 8 can be peeled off in a direction perpendicular to the locking surface 8b, so that the locking surface 8b can be easily locked to the nonwoven fabric sheet. can be released.

As described above, in the medical gown 1 according to the present invention, the male hook-and-loop fastener 8 may be provided as a locking means on one side of the back parts 4a, 4b, and the other female hook-and-loop fastener 8 may be provided using a nonwoven fabric sheet as is. Therefore, it has the advantage of being able to be manufactured at low cost.

In addition, in the medical gown 1 described above, the opening/closing part 2 is provided on the back side, but the opening/closing part 2 may be provided on the side part. Further, the ends of the sleeve portions 5a, 5b may be rubber sleeves, or the sleeve portions 5a, 5b may be short sleeves.
