Description

Taping bands for joints {taping bands for joints}

The present invention relates to a taping band attached to the body to prevent injury and pain, and more particularly, to be used exclusively for joints by anyone without expertise in taping therapy without cutting work using a separate cutting tool. In addition, the present invention relates to a taping band for joints that has been developed so that it can be closely attached to the skin surface of the joint and firmly fixed.

In general, muscles are originally stretched and restoring force are made freely, and during severe exercise, the muscles are easy to relax or stiff, and pain is accompanied when the muscles are not restored.

Pain in muscles and joints can result from injuries as well as from excessive fatigue, and when strong stimulation is suddenly received from outside the body, as well as when weak stimulation continues continuously, injuries to joints (ligaments, cartilage, etc.) and muscles can occur. can cause

In some cases, injection therapy or physical therapy is used to treat these bodily injuries or pain. However, pain can be alleviated and prevented in advance by using conservative methods for the body part where pain appears.

Accordingly, in recent years, a lot of taping therapy has been implemented to prevent injury to muscles or joints and to relieve pain.

Taping therapy assists muscle contraction and relaxation in the attached area by attaching tape (also called "sports tape" or "kinesio tape") with elasticity and adhesiveness to the affected area, and can treat and prevent user's muscle damage, When attached to a joint, it is possible to fix the joint, limit the range of motion of the joint, and reinforce ligaments and tendons.

However, existing commercially available tapes used in taping therapy are made in roll form and have to be cut using cutting tools such as scissors or knives during taping, which is very inconvenient and cumbersome. In particular, tape wound in a roll form Since all of them have a certain width, when applied to the joint area, a part of them is easily lifted, and the taping effect is lowered because a thorough attachment is not achieved as a whole.

In addition, since roll-type tapes are conventionally used integrally for joints as well as other muscle parts, expertise through expert training is required to cut them into a shape or size suitable for the application area, and pain is caused if used casually. Because it appeared more severe or had no taping effect at all, it was unreasonable for ordinary people to use it.

In addition, since the conventional tape for taping is only insufficiently ventilated through the fiber pores of the material itself, the skin is covered with the tape and ventilation is not properly performed, resulting in skin troubles such as skin eczema.

It is attached to and is configured to include a joint motion limiting unit 23 to limit excessive movement of the joint by providing joint motion resistance.

The present invention is a taping band used for taping therapy, which can be used especially for joints, and is not made of a roll type tape with a constant width as in the past, and can be conveniently used without cutting using a separate cutting tool.

3 and 4, the user separates the band sheet 10 into a main band 20 and a pair of auxiliary bands 25 and 26, and the joint fixing part 21 of the main band 20 It is attached to the joint part to cover the joint, and the rest of the joint motion limiter 23 is attached to the joint part so as to move away from the joint part, that is, the joint, so that it can be conveniently used.

In the present invention, the main band 20 is made of a "T" shape, and since the joint motion limiting portion 23 is configured to have a smaller width than the joint fixing portion 21, compared to conventional roll-type tapes having a constant width. It is possible to fix the joint fixing part 21 to the joint without lifting, and to attach the joint motion limiting part 23 to the joint movable part.

By attaching the main band 20 in this way, the present invention provides joint motion resistance to the movement of the joint by the elasticity of the material, and thus limits excessive movement of the joint, thereby preventing joint damage or damage caused by excessive joint movement. It prevents pain and allows joint recovery to take place.

The present invention may be used by attaching only the main band 20 to the joint, but in order to prevent the joint motion limiter 23 from falling off the skin and to firmly maintain the adhesion of the joint motion limiter 23 according to joint motion. Auxiliary bands 25 and 26 may additionally be used.

The auxiliary bands 25 and 26 may be attached and used to cross the joint motion limiter 23 at right angles. At this time, only one of the auxiliary bands 25 and 26 may be used, or both may be used. When the auxiliary bands 25 and 26 are both used, the first auxiliary band 26 attached to the end of the joint motion limiter 23 and the joint motion limiter 23 are attached to cross in the middle of the longitudinal direction. It may be configured to include a second auxiliary band 25 to be.

The taping band of the present invention may be commercialized by individually configuring the main band 20 and the auxiliary bands 25 and 26, but as shown in FIG. 1, the main band 20 and the auxiliary bands 25 and 26 It is made of a band sheet 10 in a rectangular shape, cut through a perforation line 15, and easily separated into the main band 20 and the auxiliary bands 25 and 26, and then commercialized to be used, so product handling and packaging are very easy. it can be done

In the present invention, the band sheet 10 may be divided into a small size applied to small joints such as fingers and toes, and a medium to large size applied to relatively large joints such as knees, shoulders, and ankles. 4 is an example of using the taping band of the present invention manufactured in a small size, and FIG. 5 is an example of using the taping band manufactured in a large size.

3 and 4, the present invention attaches and fixes the joint fixing part 21 to the joint of the finger or toe using the main band 20, and moves the joint motion limiting part 23 away from the joint. It can be attached in a direction in which resistance to joint motion can occur, and the auxiliary bands 25 and 26 are attached to cover the joint motion limiter 23 so as to cross to fix the joint motion limiter 23 more firmly. can This can limit excessive joint movement in the fingers or toes, reducing pain and allowing joint injuries to heal.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, the joint fixing part 21 of the main band 20 is attached to the ankle joint, and the joint motion limiting part 23 is moved away from the ankle joint in a direction that can give motion resistance to joint movement. It can be attached to restrict excessive movement of the joint. At this time, by using several main bands 20, the joint fixing part 21 of each main band 20 is attached so as to overlap the ankle joint, and the remaining joint motion limiting parts 23 are directed in different directions, respectively. By attaching it, it is possible to limit motion of the ankle joint in multiple directions.

On the other hand, the main band 20 of the present invention in the above has been described as being configured to integrally extend the joint motion limiter 23 to only one side from the middle of the joint fixing portion 21, but is not limited thereto, As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the joint motion limiter 23 is configured as a pair and may be configured to extend integrally from the middle of the joint fixing unit 21 to both sides at right angles.

Referring to FIG. 8, in the band sheet 10' of the present invention, silicon for enhancing elasticity is applied to the upper surface of the base sheet 11 to provide stronger resistance to joint movement, so that a silicon layer 14 is formed. can be configured.

In this case, the base sheet 11 is made of a fabric or non-woven fabric having elasticity, and silicone layer 14 is formed by applying silicone to the upper surface of the base sheet 11, and the thickness of the base sheet 11 is reduced. It is possible to design the joint motion resistance to the desired level without making it thick.

On one side, in the present invention, the silicon layer 14 may be formed over the entire upper surface of the base sheet 11 as shown in FIG. 8, but the silicon layer 14 may be formed only on the upper surface of the main band 20. ) may be configured. In this case, by forming the silicon layer 14 only on the main band 20 that substantially provides joint motion resistance, it is possible to reduce the manufacturing cost by reducing the amount of silicon material used to form the silicon layer 14 .

Referring to FIG. 9, the present invention may be configured such that a plurality of ventilation holes 17 are formed on the band sheet 10''. By overcoming the limit of air permeability through the pores formed in the fibers of the base sheet 11 and directly exposing the skin to the outside through the ventilation holes 17, the air permeability is increased, so that the attachment site of the band sheet becomes moist. Troubles can be prevented.

In the present invention, the ventilation holes 17 have a diameter of 0.1 to 0.5 mm, and are preferably formed on the band sheet 10'' in rows at intervals of 2 mm to 3 mm. This is because if the spacing or diameter of the ventilation holes 17 is too large, it cannot provide a satisfactory level of elasticity to provide joint motion resistance, and if it is too small, the air permeability becomes extremely weak, so to satisfy both air permeability and appropriate elasticity. am.

Referring to Figure 10, the main band 20 of the present invention has at least one first incision 22 formed at both ends of the joint fixing part 21, and at least at the lower end of the joint motion limiting part 23. One or more second incision lines 24 may be formed.
