(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To allow appropriate tightening and tightening in the width direction according to the shape and size of the body part to be applied. [Structure] A plurality of elastic tightening bands divided by slits substantially parallel to the longitudinal direction are formed at least at one end of the elastic main body surrounding the body part or on the peripheral surface, and the tip end of the tightening band is formed. And a male shape that interlocks with the outer surface of the main body,
A female surface fastener is provided.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to improvement of supporters.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 As the conventional supporters 3 and 4, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a rubber woven fabric in which a loop-shaped elastic main body 30 corresponding to the thickness of an ankle, a wrist, an elbow, a knee or a thigh is used together with a rubber thread. There is a supporter made of cloth, or a bandage made of a rubber woven cloth having a bandage-like elastic body 40 having a width and a length that can be wrapped around the chest, abdomen or waist.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, the size of the supporter 3 as described above has been determined to some extent for ankles, knees, etc., and tightening cannot be adjusted. In the bandage 4, a male surface fastener piece (typically sold under the trademark “Velcro”) 41 is attached to one end of the body 40 in the longitudinal direction, and the male surface fastener piece 41 is attached to the outer surface of the body 40. It was engaged with the female fastener 42 and simply wrapped around the chest or the like.

Each part of the body has a complicated shape and bend, and more appropriate support is provided by finely adjusting the degree of tightening (support adjustment) correspondingly. Therefore, the present invention has been devised in view of the above circumstances, and the tightening / adjustment can be adjusted in the width direction so that fine support can be performed according to the shape and curvature of the body part to be supported, and the joint can be adjusted. The purpose of the present invention is to provide supporters that do not hinder the flexion movement of the dog.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The support of the present invention for achieving the above object comprises an elastic main body to be wound around a part of a body, and at least one end of the main body in the longitudinal direction or a peripheral surface thereof so as to project therefrom. A plurality of elastic tightening strips sectioned by slits parallel to each other, and the male shapes provided on the tightening strips and the outer surface of the main body which these reach at the time of tightening and which engage with each other, It is characterized by being composed of a female hook-and-loop fastener.

【Example】

 Hereinafter, the supporters of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a supporter of the supporters of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a bandage of the supporters. 1, an elbow supporter 1 has a cylindrical elastic main body 11 made of a rubber woven cloth having an inner diameter corresponding to the thickness of the elbow and also using a rubber string, and a circumferential direction from the outer peripheral surface of the main body 11. It is composed of two tightening band portions 12 and 12 protruding from each other, and a male surface fastener piece 13 attached to the inner front end of the tightening band portion 12, and the outer surface of the main body part 11 is almost the entire surface. A female surface fastener 14 is formed over the entire length.

In this elbow supporter 1, first, the elbow is inserted into the tubular main body portion 11, and then the elbow support fastener portion 13 is tightened by one of the lower arm corresponding fastening band portions 12 corresponding to the thickness of the lower arm. To the female fastener 14 on the outer surface of the main body 11. Further, the other upper arm-corresponding tightening portion 12 adjusts the tightening amount according to the thickness of the upper arm, and stops it with the hook-and-loop fasteners 13, 14. At this time, the slit 15 between the two tightening bands 12, 12 facilitates bending and stretching of the elbow joint.

In FIG. 2, the waist bandage 2 is used as a supporter for pressing down wound gauze and relieving low back pain, and has a flat band shape corresponding to the circumference and width of the applied lumbar region. Main body 21 made of rubber woven cloth, two tightening strips 22 and 22 projecting from one longitudinal end of the main body 21, and a male surface attached to the inner tip of the tightening strip 22. It is composed of a fastener piece 23, and a female surface fastener piece 24 is formed on almost the entire outer surface of the main body portion 21.

The lumbar bandage 2 adjusts the tension of the tightening band so that both the lower abdomen and the buttocks have the same circumference, and the tension of the tightening band is adjusted, and the male surface fasteners of the respective tip parts are adjusted. The pieces 23, 23 are fastened to the female surface fastener 14 on the outer surface of the main body.

In the above embodiment, the two tightening strips 12 and 22 have been described. However, it is said that three or more tightening strips are appropriately selected when the shape of the corresponding body part is complicated. Not really. Further, the female surface fastener is provided on the entire outer surface of the main body portions 11 and 21 in the above-mentioned embodiment, but it goes without saying that the configuration may be limited to an appropriate range.

[0011]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, according to the supporters of the present invention, since a plurality of tightening bands are provided at one end or in the circumferential direction in the width direction, the shape and size of the applied body part can be supported. Therefore, the tightening can be adjusted, so that the tightening can be performed uniformly or differentially, and the slits between the tightening bands can flex the joint smoothly.
