Description

Elastic shoulder protector {SHOULDER PROTECTOR HAVING ELASTICITY}

The present invention relates to a shoulder protector having elasticity, and more specifically, to a shoulder protector having elasticity and an adjustable length so as to fit closely to the user's shoulder and stably support the user's arm.

Generally, when frozen shoulder or dislocation occurs in the shoulder, the fractured area is protected by placing a plaster cast or fixing the arm with a shoulder strap.

However, it is important to secure the shoulder strap firmly to prevent the arm from moving, but in the case of conventional armrests, it is impossible to fix the arm without shaking, and it is difficult to adjust the height, length, and angle according to the wearer's human body shape, making the wearer comfortable. There is a problem that makes it difficult to wear properly.

In particular, for patients with shoulder joint injuries and shoulder dislocations, there is a need for an armrest device that allows treatment while fixing the arm without stiffening the shoulder and facilitates recovery exercise in the shoulder area.

Meanwhile, sports games such as baseball and volleyball require a lot of use of the shoulders, so it is essential to apply cold or warm compresses with ice or hot packs to protect the shoulders after the sports game is over. If you feel fatigued in your shoulder, apply cold or hot compresses.

However, conventionally, when you wanted to apply a cold pack, you put ice in a plastic bag, placed it on your shoulder, and fixed it on your shoulder with a compression bandage. When you wanted to apply a warm pack, you fixed the hot pack with a compression bandage, etc.

Therefore, not only does it take a lot of time to fix the ice or hot pack to the shoulder, but there is also a problem in that if the ice or hot pack is placed on the shoulder for a long time and it is too cold or hot, it is very difficult to remove it for a while and then reattach it.

In addition, existing elastic shoulder protectors are manufactured and sold separately for men and women and for left and right shoulders, so even a single household must purchase and use separate models according to the user and left and right shoulders, which increases economic burden and inconveniences. am.
