Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] The objective is to protect the injured or surgical site of the body from moisture and allow bathing or water work without paying attention to the wound. [Structure] A waterproof device 1 in the shape of gloves or boots, a rubber band 3 for sealing the waterproof device 1, and a membrane filter 4 for removing air from the waterproof device 1.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a waterproof device for a body trauma.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In the past, waterproofing equipment was not prepared for trauma or surgery on the body, so when bathing or performing water work, it was necessary to be extremely careful to keep the wound away from water as much as possible.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 It is intended to protect the trauma or surgical site of the body from moisture and allow bathing or water work without paying attention to the wound.

[0004]

[Means for solving the problem]

 Protect the wound from moisture by sealing the waterproofing equipment with a rubber band. Remove the air from the waterproofing equipment with a membrane filter.

[0005]

[Action]

 The waterproof part is passed through the wounded part of the body, and the wounded part is sealed with a rubber band to seal the wounded part. If you take a bath with a waterproof device while the wound is sealed, discharge the air through the membrane filter.

[0006]

【Example】

 Hereinafter, a case where the ankle has a wound will be described as an embodiment of the present invention. The boot 1 waterproofing tool 1 is put on the foot so as to cover the wound part 5 of the ankle. The waterproofing device is made of ultra-thin rubber so that the feet will not slip due to moisture, and is closed except for the foot insertion opening 2. In addition, a membrane filter 4 (corresponding to Fluoropore manufactured by Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd.) is attached to a part of the waterproofing tool 1 to remove the air inside without taking in water even when taking a bath. By stopping from the foot of the waterproofing equipment 1 through the rubber band 3 at the knee, water is prevented from entering from the insertion opening 2 of the foot and the ankle is sealed. A rubber tube or the like may be used instead of the rubber band 3 to seal the waterproofing tool 1. Further, the membrane filter 4 may not be used when bathing or the like is not performed.

[0007]

[Effect of device]

 By sealing the wound on the body with a waterproofing device, the wound is protected from moisture during bathing and water work. Even if you take a bath while wearing the waterproofing equipment, the air inside the waterproofing equipment will escape through the membrane filter, so you do not have to be in an unnatural posture.
