さらにこのゴム質剤中に、繊維、フレーク、粒
体等よりなる強化材を混入させることもできる。 Furthermore, reinforcing materials such as fibers, flakes, granules, etc. can also be mixed into this rubbery material.
実施例
以下本発明を図示する実施例について具体的に
説明する。Examples Examples illustrating the present invention will be specifically described below.
第1図は本発明により製造された補強部材付き
サポータ10を示す。このサポータ10は、右膝
の膝蓋骨を内下方へ付勢しつつ保持するために用
いられるものである。 FIG. 1 shows a supporter 10 with a reinforcing member manufactured according to the present invention. This supporter 10 is used to hold the patella of the right knee while urging it inwardly and downwardly.
このサポータ10を製造するには、はじめに通
常の膝用サポータ11を用意する。この通常のサ
ポータ11は、編物織物からなるもののほか、表
面に布を有するゴムシートを用いたものでもよ
い。 To manufacture this supporter 10, a normal knee supporter 11 is first prepared. This normal supporter 11 may be made of a knitted fabric, or may be made of a rubber sheet having cloth on its surface.
この通常のサポータ11の表面に、熱可塑性ゴ
ム質合成樹脂(株式会社スリーボンド製)をホツ
トメルトアプリケータを用い、約120℃に加熱し
液体状としてノズルから流出させ厚さ1〜2mmの
帯状に塗着し、自然冷却し硬化させ補強部材12
とする。この塗着部所は、膝蓋骨の上部及び脚外
方側を巡る弧状部分13並びにこの弧状部分から
脚内方へ斜めに下る略直線状部分14とする。 A thermoplastic rubber synthetic resin (manufactured by ThreeBond Co., Ltd.) is heated to about 120°C using a hot melt applicator on the surface of this normal supporter 11, and the liquid is flowed out from the nozzle to form a strip with a thickness of 1 to 2 mm. The reinforcing member 12 is coated, naturally cooled and hardened.
shall be. The application areas include an arcuate portion 13 that goes around the upper part of the patella and the outer side of the leg, and a substantially linear portion 14 that extends obliquely down from this arcuate portion to the inner side of the leg.
こうして補強部材付きサポータ10を完成し、
図示のようにして使用すると、補強部材12の弧
状部分13が膝蓋骨を引掛け、略直線状部分14
が張力を加え膝蓋骨を内下方へ付勢しつつ保持す
る。 In this way, the supporter 10 with reinforcing member is completed,
When used as shown, the arcuate portion 13 of the reinforcing member 12 hooks the patella, and the substantially straight portion 14
applies tension and holds the patella while urging it inwardly and downwardly.
この補強部材12の厚さは、ゴム質材の性質、
求める張力によつて適宜定めればよく、部所ごと
に異つた厚さとして部所ごとに異つた張力を生じ
させることもできる。またゴム質材に染料を混入

き、補強部材をサポータの裏面に設けて目立たな
いようにしてもよい。さらにゴム質材中にガラス
繊維、マイカフレーク等の強化材を混入させより
大きな張力を補強部材に負担させることもでき
る。 The thickness of this reinforcing member 12 depends on the properties of the rubber material.
It may be determined as appropriate depending on the desired tension, and it is also possible to create different tensions in different parts by setting different thicknesses in different parts. Furthermore, dyes may be mixed into the rubber material to give it various colors to improve its aesthetic appearance, and a reinforcing member may be provided on the back side of the supporter to make it less noticeable. Furthermore, a reinforcing material such as glass fiber or mica flakes may be mixed into the rubber material to cause the reinforcing member to bear a larger tension.
なおこの用途の補強部材付きサポータは、従来
の製法では丸い膝蓋骨を良好に保持することがで
きないため、実現不可能であつたものである。 It should be noted that it has been impossible to create a supporter with a reinforcing member for this purpose because the round patella cannot be held well using conventional manufacturing methods.
第2図は、他の補強部材付きサポータ20を示
す。このサポータは、膝関節の折曲げを制限する
ために使用されるものである。 FIG. 2 shows another supporter 20 with a reinforcing member. This supporter is used to limit bending of the knee joint.
このサポータ20の製造は、はじめに前記例と
同様に通常のサポータ201を用意し、この表面
に前記例と同様にゴム質材を液体状にして塗着
し、硬化させて補強部材22を設けるものであ
る。この塗着部所は、膝関節の両側(一側方のみ
図示)を上下に伸びる帯状の部分であり、特に膝
関節部分は幅広となり板状とする。 To manufacture this supporter 20, a normal supporter 201 is first prepared in the same manner as in the above example, and a reinforcing member 22 is provided by applying a liquid rubber material to the surface of the supporter 201 and hardening it in the same manner as in the above example. It is. This application area is a band-shaped part that extends up and down both sides of the knee joint (only one side is shown), and the knee joint part is particularly wide and plate-shaped.
この補強部材付きサポータ20を、使用する
と、膝関節を曲げる際に、補強部材22が同時に
曲げられ、その曲げ剛性により膝関節の運動を制
限する。 When this supporter 20 with a reinforcing member is used, when the knee joint is bent, the reinforcing member 22 is bent at the same time, and its bending rigidity limits the movement of the knee joint.
補強部材22の厚さ、形状は所望剛性に応じて
適宜定めればよく特に幅、板状部分の大きさを調
節することにより剛性は広い範囲で自由に設定す
ることができる。またゴム質材内にフレークを混
入させると剛性を著しく増大させることができ
る。 The thickness and shape of the reinforcing member 22 may be appropriately determined depending on the desired rigidity, and the rigidity can be freely set within a wide range by adjusting the width and the size of the plate-like portion. Furthermore, by mixing flakes into the rubber material, the rigidity can be significantly increased.
なおこの用途の補強部材付きサポータとして
は、従来は、特殊形状の金属板を組合わせて補強
部材とし、これをサポータに布を当てながら縫着
して形成したものが用いられている。 Conventionally, a supporter with a reinforcing member for this purpose is formed by combining metal plates of a special shape to form a reinforcing member and sewing the reinforcing member to the supporter while applying cloth to the supporter.
第3図は、さらに別の補強部材付きサポータ3
0を示す。このサポータ30は右膝の膝蓋骨を上
外方へずれないよう保持するために用いられるも
のである。 FIG. 3 shows yet another supporter 3 with a reinforcing member.
Indicates 0. This supporter 30 is used to hold the patella of the right knee so that it does not shift upward and outward.
このサポータ30も、前記各例と同様に、通常
のサポータ31にゴム質材を液体状として塗着
し、硬化させて補強部材32を設けて製造され
る。この塗着部所は、サポータ31の裏面にあつ
て、膝蓋骨の上部及び脚外側の部分である。 This supporter 30 is also manufactured by applying a rubber material in liquid form to a normal supporter 31 and hardening it to provide a reinforcing member 32 in the same manner as in each of the above examples. The areas to be coated are the upper part of the patella and the outer side of the leg on the back surface of the supporter 31.
この補強部材付きサポータ30を使用すると、
補強部材32が膝蓋骨の上外方を圧迫し、膝蓋骨
が上外方へずれることを防止する。 When this supporter 30 with reinforcing member is used,
The reinforcing member 32 compresses the upper and outer sides of the patella and prevents the patella from shifting upward and outward.
ここで使用する補強部材32は、膝蓋骨周囲の
凹陥した部所を押さえるのであるから十分厚いこ
とが必要であり、このためゴム質材中に粒体等を
混入させると好都合である。またこの補強部材3
2は、前記第1図のサポータ10の構成と併用し
てもよい。 The reinforcing member 32 used here needs to be sufficiently thick because it presses down on the depressed area around the patella, and for this reason it is convenient to mix particles or the like into the rubber material. Also, this reinforcing member 3
2 may be used in combination with the structure of the supporter 10 shown in FIG.
なおこの用途の補強部材付きサポータとして
は、従来は単に膝蓋骨上部をテープで特に締める
ようにしただけのものが用いられている。 Conventionally, as a supporter with a reinforcing member for this purpose, one in which the upper part of the patella is specifically tightened with tape has been used.
発明の効果

のも実現しうるので、医療上の多様に要請に答え
ることができる。Effects of the Invention As described above, in the present invention, the reinforcing member is attached to the supporter in a liquid state and is formed by hardening the reinforcing member. Therefore, the manufacturing work is extremely simple and requires special skill. It can be easily and efficiently manufactured even by those who do not have it. Furthermore, the shape of the reinforcing member can be arbitrary, and it is possible to create a curved shape, which was previously impossible, and a shape with different tension for each part, so that it can meet a wide variety of medical needs.
