Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a cuff for a blood pressure monitor that can be secured to the arm with one hand.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 6, this type of arm cuff for a blood pressure monitor has a belt loop 14 attached to one end of the arm cuff, the arm cuff wrapped around the arm, and the other end of the arm cuff wrapped around the wrist. It was meant to be passed through a ring 14 and wrapped around the arm.

Therefore, it is difficult to attach the wristband to the arm with one hand, and since the belt loop 14 is made of metal, it is not bulky and cannot be folded into a storage case, making it inconvenient to carry.

In addition, in Tokuko Sho 59-19690, in order for one person to wrap the cuff around the arm, an auxiliary band was formed into a roughly loop shape, and the auxiliary band was attached from the inner side of the cuff to the outer side of the rubber sac. By inserting the arm of the person measuring blood pressure into the loop of the auxiliary band, the cuff can be temporarily secured without slipping, and the cuff can be easily wrapped around the arm by one person. .

(Problem to be solved by the invention) In the conventional technology as described above, it is difficult for one person to secure the cuff for a blood pressure monitor with one hand;
In addition, in the case of the Special Publication No. 59-19690, an auxiliary belt must be attached separately from the arm cuff, which complicates the sewing process. Furthermore, it is necessary to insert the arm into the loop of the auxiliary belt, making it difficult to handle. was.

The present invention consists of a temporary fastening piece 12 consisting of an elastic hook piece 11 approximately in the center of a cuff whose entire front and back surfaces are made of loop fabric 1, and a hook member 13 on the right side 8 of the cuff.
This is used to secure the cuff to the arm with one hand.

(Means for solving the problem) The present invention uses a fabric A whose front surface is a loop fabric surface 1 and whose back surface is a coated surface 2 made of synthetic resin.
Polymerize the synthetic resin with the coated surfaces 2, 2 on the inside, and weld 5 the periphery of the fabric A via the tubes 3, 4 to form a vertical welded part 6 approximately in the center of the cuff. The left side part 7 is formed into an air bag body 9, and the right side part 8 has a temporary fixing piece 12 consisting of a hook piece 11 having elasticity upward toward the center.
Attach the hook member 13 to the end of the right side 8 of the cuff.
It has a fixed configuration.

(Example) To explain an example of the present invention, as shown in Fig. 1, the fabric forming the arm cuff is fabric A, which has a loop fabric surface 1 on the front surface and a synthetic resin coating surface 2 on the back surface. Then, cut the fabric A vertically in the length direction.
Prepare two pieces cut to 14cm long and about 45cm wide, polymerize the fabric A with the coated sides 2 and 2 inside, and weld the periphery of the fabric A through the tubes 3 and 4 to make an arm cuff. A welded part 6 is formed vertically at approximately the center of the cuff, the left side part 7 of the cuff is formed into an air bag body 9, and an instep rubber 10 is sewn near the center of the right part 8 of the cuff.
A temporary fixing piece 12 with a hook piece 11 sewn onto the surface of the rubber instep 10 is attached, and a hook member 13 is sewn onto the end of the right side 8 of the cuff.

Note that the tube 3 is for supplying air to the air bag 9, and the tube 4 is for communicating with a measuring device.

The fabric A forming the arm cuff in the above embodiment is made of nylon fabric, polyester fabric, etc. with a loop fabric surface 1 or a velvet fabric surface, and the inner surface is coated with synthetic resin. .

In the above embodiment, the temporary fixing piece 12 was explained as an example in which the hook piece 11 was sewn onto the surface of the rubber instep 10, but instead of this, a temporary fixing piece made of a hook member in which the hook material itself has elasticity was explained. You may use something.

Further, the hook piece 11 is not limited to being sewn, but may be bonded with an adhesive or welded by high frequency.

In the above embodiment, the instep rubber 10 is attached to the right side 8 of the cuff.
Instead, the instep rubber 10 was sewn only to the upper end of the arm cuff near the center, but instead of this, the attaching position of the instep rubber 10 was changed to the center of the left side of the right side 8 of the cuff, and the vertically long instep elastic 10 was sewn all over the left side of the right side 8 of the cuff. It is also possible to use a temporary fixing piece 12 in which a hook piece 11 is sewn onto the surface of the upper rubber 10.

Next, to explain how to use the present invention, in the state shown in Figure 2, place the left elbow joint on the right half of the left side 7, and place the left half of the left side 7 on the slightly inner side of the elbow joint. Place the temporary fixing piece 12 over the loop fabric surface 1 on the back side of the left side 7 to match the thickness of the arm of the person measuring blood pressure, fix it to the left elbow joint, and then attach it to the right side on the opposite side. The hook member 13 of No. 8 is overlappingly engaged with the loop fabric surface 1 of the left side portion 7 to securely fix the cuff to the left elbow joint.

Thus, the cuff is fixed on the slightly medial side of the elbow joint where the artery runs on the comparison surface, and in this state, the canal 3
Air is supplied to the air bag body 9 of the arm cuff, and the pressure stops the blood circulation in the arm artery.Next, when the pressurization stops, an automatic exhaust valve works to gradually remove the air from the arm cuff, and the pressure in the arm cuff is reduced. It becomes equal to the systolic blood pressure, blood begins to flow, and when the air is further removed, normal pulsation returns.
Measure blood pressure during automatic pumping.

(Operations and Effects of the Invention) The present invention has the above-mentioned structure, and a temporary fastening piece 12 made of an elastic hook piece 11 is formed near the center of the cuff whose front and back surfaces are entirely made of loop fabric, and Place the left elbow joint on the half, place the left half of the left side 7 on the slightly inside side of the elbow joint, and attach the temporary fixing piece 12 to the loop fabric surface 1 on the back side of the left side 7, and then After fixing it to the elbow joint, the hook member 13 of the right side 8 on the opposite side is overlapped and engaged with the loop fabric surface 1 of the left side 7, so that the cuff can be firmly fixed to the left elbow joint. Therefore, you can easily fix the cuff on your arm with one hand.

Since the arm cuff according to the present invention is made of the loop fabric surface 1 on its entire front and back surfaces, the hook piece 11 and the hook member 13 can be attached to either the front or back of the loop fabric surface 1, and it is suitable for thick wrists. It fits easily even on thin arms and is easy to attach.

Since the arm cuff according to the present invention has an interior made of synthetic resin coated surfaces 2, 2, the air bag body 9 can be formed by simply welding the periphery, and unlike conventional arm cuffs, the air bag body 9 can be formed as a separate air bag body. There is no need for a bag, so the manufacturing process is simple and can be provided economically.
