Technical field

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to an assisting device technique for inguinal hernia or sports hernia.

. For inguinal hernias, it relates to pre- and post-operative support, and for sports hernias, it relates to techniques suitable for prevention and treatment assistance.

Background art

[0002] At the base of the human leg, more specifically, at the boundary between the abdomen and the leg, an inguinal region (the outer edge of the rectus abdominis muscle, the lower part of the external abdominal oblique muscle and the region surrounded by the inguinal ligament) is formed. An inguinal hernia is a state where organs such as the intestines and visceral fat that should be inside the body protrude from the inguinal region and bulge and appear to rise from the surface of the skin. Surgery is almost the only way to cure this inguinal hernia.

[0003] In addition, sports hernia in which the same part as inguinal hernia hurts may develop.

The swollen state is not visible! / And is often known to heal by treatment (surgery) similar to inguinal hernia. This sports hernia is thought to be caused by frequent sports (typically soccer) in which the legs are frequently moved and shocked. If you have been playing soccer since you were a child, it is not uncommon for you to develop a sports health in your youth. However, it is also known that sports hernias can be cured without surgery.

[0004] As an assisting device for preventing and treating inguinal hernia, conventional strengths are also commercially available under the names of herbal band, hernia band, ileum band and the like.

In addition, the technique described in Patent Document 1 below is also known.

[0005] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-353171

[0006] The technique of Patent Document 1 can be used easily and quickly by a new type of knitted reinforcing material that is suitable for treatment of an inguinal hernia by an anterior approach path and is placed in front of a muscle. It is described as a technique to ensure effective and functional recovery for each patient. Disclosure of the invention

Problems to be solved by the invention

[0007] The conventional technology has not been able to reduce the pain of the patient before and after undergoing surgery for inguinal hernia and to live in peace. In addition, it is difficult to say that they satisfy the needs of making them less noticeable or simply wearing them to gain a sense of security.

[0008] On the other hand, it is important to prevent onset of sports hernia, which is common among soccer players, as well as treatment. However, the conventional assistive devices were not sufficient for preventing the occurrence of sports hernia. Also, the shape was not convenient for simple mounting.

[0009] Furthermore, it was insufficient as a sports supporter that can be used by soccer players during play.

In the following, when simply described as “hernia”, it also refers to the deviation of inguinal hernia and spot hernia.

[0010] It is effective in protecting the affected area before and after surgery for inguinal hernia, having an effect in preventing sports hernia, and as a sports supporter in sports such as soccer. It is an object of the present application to provide a hernia supporter that can achieve, for example, not interfering with movement when worn. Means for solving the problem

[0011] (Claim 1)

The invention described in claim 1 includes a belt-shaped protective band for the right inguinal part for pressing the right inguinal part through the left force crotch of the wearer's pelvis part, and the right leg of the wearer's pelvis part through the inseam. The present invention relates to a hernia supporter provided with a band-shaped protective band for a left inguinal part for pressing the left inguinal part.

[0012] "Inguinal part" refers to a part that matches the position of the inguinal tube. It is almost an inverted triangle on the inguinal line.

“Supporter” as used in this claim means that the right and left groin protective bands are sewn in advance to items such as pants (short panties, half pants, long pants, etc.) and body suits. Supporters for the left and right inguinal parts and belts for instructing the pressing of the inguinal part protective bands as specified in other claims. The supporter comprised separately from the wearing thing may be sufficient.

[0013] The "pelvic part (W)" in the document of the present application is slightly below the so-called waist, and the support belt (5) generally circulates around the upper ends of the left and right hip bones. However, the groin protective band (2, 4) functions to push down the support belt (5), and the groin protective band (2, 4) is less likely to shift the affected area of the groin area. The purpose is to be achieved. However, depending on the application and size of the product, it may not be near the pelvis, and there are individual differences. For example, if the wearer (M) is a slender physique, the description of the force pelvis (W) where the support belt (5) may be near the waist when worn does not preclude that.

[0014] (Function)

According to the invention of claim 1, the right and left protective bands intersect each other near the crotch, the right inguinal part is pressed by the right inguinal part protective band, and the right inguinal part is pressed by the left inguinal part protective band. It contributes to preventing the onset of herpes and relieving anxiety before and after hernia surgery. In addition, it does not easily block blood flow to each leg.

[0015] (Claim 2)

The invention according to claim 2 is a belt part that goes around the pelvis part of the wearer, and a belt-like protective band for the right inguinal part for pressing the right inguinal part with the crotch part and the front right side of the belt part as both ends. A belt-shaped left inguinal protective band for pressing the left inguinal region with both the crotch and the front left side of the belt as both ends, and protection for the left and right inguinal regions with both the inseam and the rear of the belt as both ends The present invention relates to a hernia supporter provided with a rear expansion / contraction portion for securing a belt pressing force.

[0016] The "supporter" referred to in this claim also sews the belt part, the right and left inguinal protective bands and the rear stretchable part in advance to wear such as pants (short pants, half pants, long pants, etc.). It may be an embedded supporter or, as specified in other claims, may be a supporter that is configured separately from an article to be worn.

[0017] As defined in the other claims, the "rear stretchable part" means the left and right inguinal protective bands and physical It may be continuous, or it may be discontinuous at the crotch! /. Generally, there are two rear elastic parts for the left and right protective bands, but there may be only one rear elastic part at the center, or a plurality of rear elastic parts (for example, four )

[0018] (Function)

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the rear elastic part and the belt part ensure the elastic force for the right and left protective bands to press each inguinal part. Therefore, the right inguinal part protective band presses the right inguinal part, and the left inguinal part protective band presses the right inguinal part. This contributes to preventing the development of hernia and relieving anxiety before and after hernia surgery.

[0019] (Claim 3)

The invention described in claim 3 is a hernia supporter (1) having a hernia treatment or prevention function.

The support belt (5) is mounted around the pelvis (W) of the wearer (M), and the left rear side of the wearer's pelvis in the support belt (5) is fixed as one end (base end 2a). A band-shaped protective band for the right inguinal region (2) and a band-shaped protective band for the left inguinal region (one end 4a) fixed at a position symmetrical to the protective band for the right inguinal region (2) ( 4), and the right groin protective band (2) and the left groin protective band (4) are formed of a stretchable material, and the free end thereof is provided on the support belt (5). The protective band fixing part (5d, 5e) and the removable detachable part (2c, 4 c) are provided on the left and right groin protective bands (2,4). ) Is a supporter for hernia that has a fixing assist function so that the force is fixed by crossing.

[0020] "Fixing auxiliary function" means, for example, that one groin protective band (for example, right groin protective band 2) is passed through the other groin protective band (for example, left groin protective band 4). A ring is provided near the center of the protector in the longitudinal direction. It is also possible to fix one-touch fasteners at the intersections in advance.

For example, you may form as follows. The protective band fixing part (5d, 5e) has a right fixing part (5d), which is a fixing part for the right inguinal protective band (2), and a left inguinal part protecting part in the central part (5c) in the longitudinal direction. It is configured separately from the left fixing part (5e), which is the fixing part for the belt (4), and the right fixing part (5d) can fix the detachable part (2c) of the protective band for the right inguinal part (2) However, for left inguinal area The detachable part (4c) of the guard band (4) is made unfixable. Furthermore, the left fixing part (5e) can fix the attachment / detachment part (4c) of the protection band (4) for the left inguinal part, but the attachment / detachment part (2c) of the protection band for the right inguinal part (2) cannot be fixed. Form. This formation results in a “fixed auxiliary function”.

[0021] The right fixing part (5d) cannot fix the attachment / detachment part (4c) of the left inguinal protection band (4), and the left fixing part (5e) is the attachment / detachment of the right inguinal protection band (2).

In Fig. 1, the base ends 2a and 4a are fixed at the angle slightly inward so that the left and right inguinal protective bands 2 and 4 are almost perpendicular to the support belt 5. In this case, the left and right inguinal protection bands 2 and 4 are easily fixed to the connection parts 5d and 5e.

[0052] In the female side connection portion 5c in the present embodiment, only the first oss side connection portion 5d to which only the first oss side connection portion 2c can be fixed and only the second oss side connection portion 4c are provided. It is formed by being separated into a second-side-side dedicated connecting portion 5e that can be fixed. This is because even if the first oss side connection part 2c is fixed to the second os side dedicated connection part 5e, it becomes a loop surface and a loop surface or a hook surface and a hook surface. Can not ,.

More specifically, if the first male side connection portion 2c is formed on the hook surface, the first male side dedicated connection portion 5d is formed as a loop surface. In this case, the second oss side connection portion 4c is formed on the loop surface, and the second oss side dedicated connection portion 5e is formed on the hook surface. By forming in this way, misuse can be prevented in advance. In other words, even if the right inguinal part protective band 2 and the left inguinal part protective band 4 are mistakenly fixed in the opposite direction, they cannot be fixed because they are in the form of males or females. For this reason, wearer M naturally has two The hernia supporter 1 will be installed with the protective bands 2 and 4 crossed, and the functional effect of the hernia supporter 1 will not be impaired by the wrong mounting method.

[0053] (Fig. 3)

FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining the mounting order of the hernia assisting device 1. As shown in FIGS. 3 (a) and 3 (b), the wearer M wears the support belt 5 around the pelvis W. Pelvic part Left side The right inguinal zone protective band 2 extended from the WL force passes through the left heel part HL and inseam K, and the first to the first oss side exclusive connection part 5d in the female side connection part 5c of the front part Connect and fix the male connection 2 c. At this time, the vicinity of the center of the right inguinal protective band 2 presses the right leg inguinal part RP.

[0054] Further, as shown in FIGS. 3 (c) and 3 (d), the left inguinal protective band 4 extending from the right WR of the pelvis is passed through the right heel part HL and the inseam K, and the female side of the front part The second oss side connecting portion 4c is connected and fixed to the second oss side dedicated connecting portion 5e in the connecting portion 5c. As a result, the vicinity of the center of the protective band 4 for the left groin part presses the left leg groin part LP.

The wearer M before and after hernia surgery can live with peace of mind and may reduce pain.

[0055] (Fig. 4)

Fig. 4 is a diagram illustrating how the right inguinal zone protective band 2 acts on the right leg inguinal region RP when the right leg is powered forward and upward with the hernia supporter 1 attached. The

As shown in Fig. 4, when wearer M raises his right leg, right inguinal zone protective band 2 extends to allow wearer M to operate, while right inguinal zone protective band 2 abuts. It is pressed against the right leg groin RP that is in the direction indicated by the arrow Q in FIG.

[0056] This is because the protective band 2 for the right inguinal region is formed of a stretchable material and does not take away the freedom of movement of the right leg, but when the right leg is powered In this case, the protective band 2 for the right inguinal region is stretched to some extent and its repulsive force is also generated. However, blood flow obstruction at the leg is minimized. The right leg groin portion RP is pressed by this pressing action, and the groin portion is pressed. In other words, the pressing force of the groin portion by the protective bands 2 and 4 is maintained even for the operation of raising the leg. For this reason, kicking the ball It contributes to the prevention of onset of sports hernia, which is considered to be the cause.

Although illustration is omitted, the left inguinal protective band 4 when the left leg is driven has the same effect as the right inguinal protective band 2.

[0057] (Fig. 5, Fig. 6)

FIG. 5 is a view showing an embodiment in which the support belt 5 and the protective bands 2 and 4 of the hernia supporter 1 described above are integrated into a pant-type inner wear, (a) is a front view, (b) ) Is a rear view. FIG. 6 is a view showing the form of the back surface (the surface touching the wearer's skin) of the hernia supporter 10 shown in FIG.

When wearer M, a soccer player, wears this hernia supporter 10 as an inner wear, it develops when the legs are moved frequently and sometimes impacted near the groin by kicking the ball etc. It is suitable for preventing sports hell that is considered to be. Hereinafter, in describing the configuration of the hernia supporter 10, the wearer and each part of the wearer's body will be described based on the reference numerals shown in FIG.

[0058] The hernia supporter 10 includes both leg openings 11, 12 that can pass through the right and left knees of the wearer M, and a pelvic opening 13 disposed on the opposite side of the both leg openings 11, 12. The supporter pant body 10a is formed in a pant shape with the supporter pant body 10a, and the supporter pant body 10a is formed so as to be able to go around the pelvis part W of the wearer M, and can support the pelvis part W in a stretchable manner when worn. The pelvic support band 15 and the pelvic support band 15 are connected to the pelvis, and the front surface of the pelvic support band 15 passes through the upper surface of the left flank WL force, left flank HL, inseam, and right leg groin RP. It is connected to the right inguinal protection band 16 fixed to the part 15a and the pelvic support band 15. It passes from the right side WR of the pelvis part to the right side HR and crosses the right inguinal protection band 16 at the crotch K. , Protection for left groin area fixed to the front surface 15a of the pelvic support band 15 by contacting the upper surface of the left leg groin area LP It is constituted by a 17.

[0059] The supporter pant body 10a is made of a material having excellent air permeability such as polyester or mesh, so that the air permeability can be secured even when worn by a soccer player, etc. Is considered. Then, the pelvis support band 15, the right inguinal protective band 16 and the left inguinal protective band 17 are sewn on the supporter pants body 10a. Together, protect each inguinal part RP, LP. As shown in Figs. 6 (a) and 6 (b), the upper groin RP and LP of the wearer M are pressed against each other as shown in Figs. 6 (a) and 6 (b). Sewing along the possible position, align and tighten.

[0060] The protective band 16 for the right inguinal region and the protective band 17 for the left inguinal region are formed of a stretchable material such as synthetic resin, and the wearer M attaches the hernia supporter 10 When properly fitted, the groin RP and LP are pressed against the upper surface force of each groin RP and LP. On the other hand, it hardly interferes with movements such as running and kicking the ball. When used as an inner wear during a soccer game, if you wear overpants on the supporter 10 for the hernia according to this embodiment, it will be recognized from the appearance that the hernia supporter 10 is installed. Have difficulty. Therefore, it contributes to the prevention of sports hernia with less psychological resistance to wearing during soccer competition.

[0061] (Fig. 7)

As shown in FIG. 7, the right inguinal part protective band 16 and the left inguinal part protective band 17 are crossed at the crotch K portion of the wearer M and fixed to the front surface part 15a. Since the protective bands are continuous in this manner, the blood flow to each leg is unlikely to be hindered, but the pressure on the inguinal portions RP and LP can be further increased.

When the wearer M moves the right leg forward or upward, the right inguinal protection band 16 extends, but the repulsive force is generated in the right leg inguinal part RP and the right leg inguinal part RP is included. Press the contact part. That is, when the wearer M moves the leg, the groin is pressed. This pressure action contributes to the suppression of the development of sports hernias and even to the reduction of pain even for athletes with sports hernias.

[0062] (Fig. 8)

Further, FIG. 8 is a nomination at the crossing portion at the crotch K of the hernia supporter 10 shown in FIG. That is, as in FIG. 7, the right inguinal protective band 16a located on the back side with respect to the wearer M and the right inguinal protective band 16b located on the front side are continuously formed. The shape of part C is slightly different. That is, the left and right groin area protection bands 16a, 17a are formed in a tapered shape by directing the intersection C. In addition, the intersection C force is formed so as to be thickened by directing the front part! By adopting such a shape, there is a production merit that it is easy to sew the crotch part where many seam parts gather.

[0063] (Fig. 9, 10)

9 and 10 show that the shape of the intersection C shown in FIG. 8 is the same, but the material of the pelvic support band 15, the right inguinal protection band 16 and the left inguinal protection band 17 is the same. This is a supporter 20 for hernia, which is made of polyester and mesh similar to the material of the supporter pants body 10a that is not used by synthetic resin, and has been developed to further improve the exercise performance of the wearer M.

That is, it has both leg openings 21 and 22 that can be worn by the right and left knees of the wearer M, and a pelvic opening 23 that is disposed on the opposite side of the both leg openings 21 and 22 in a pants shape. The formed supporter pants main body 20a and the supporter pants main body 20a are formed so as to be able to go around the pelvic part W of the wearer M, and can support the pelvis part W in a stretchable manner when worn. The pelvis support band 25 is connected to the pelvis left side WL, and the pelvic part left WL force passes through the left heel part HL and inseam K, and contacts the upper surface of the right leg groin part RP. The right inguinal protective band 26 fixed to the front 25a and the right WR of the pelvic support belt 25 are connected to the right WR of the pelvis, and the right groin passes through the right HR HR from the right WR of the pelvis. Left groin that intersects with the upper protective band 26 and is in contact with the upper surface of the left leg groin LP to be fixed to the front surface 25a of the pelvic support band 25 And a protective band 27 for parts.

[0064] In this embodiment, the right inguinal part protective band 26 and the left inguinal part protective band 27, which are parts protecting the inguinal parts RP, LP, are made of polyester material, so that ventilation during exercise is possible. Increases sex. However, the pelvic support band 15, the right inguinal protection band 16 and the left inguinal protection band 17 are supported pants so as not to impair the inherent function of the hernia supporter of “preventing hernia”. The fabric may be formed thicker than other parts such as the main body 10a. For example, if the dough is doubled or tripled, the pressure on the inguinal parts RP and LP is strengthened. Note that the way of stacking the dough is not particularly limited as long as it is appropriately adjusted according to the balance between air permeability and pressing.

[0065] Further, the right inguinal protective band 26 and the left inguinal protective band 27 have a high air permeability function and A mesh material having a sweat-absorbing function may be used. If a mesh material with a high air permeability is used, sufficient air permeability is ensured, which contributes to prevention of deterioration in athletic performance when wearing a hernia supporter. In addition, when a mesh material having a sweat-absorbing function is used, a sufficient sweat-absorbing property is ensured, which similarly contributes to prevention of deterioration in exercise performance.

In FIG. 10, the right inguinal protective band 26 and the left inguinal protective band 27 are physically separated at the crotch portion. This is a force that has merit in production, such as easy to sew the inseam.

[0066] (Fig. 11, 12)

FIG. 11 shows a supporter 30 for hernia, (a) is a front view, and (b) is a rear view. 12 (a) and 12 (b) are views showing the form of the back surface (the surface that comes into contact with the wearer's skin) of the hernia supporter 30. FIG.

In FIG. 11, the hernia supporter 30 includes both leg openings 31, 32 that allow the right and left knees of the wearer M, and a pelvic opening 33 disposed on the opposite side of the both leg openings 31, 32. A support pants body 30a formed in a pant shape, and a female side connection part 35 located in front of the pelvis part W of the wearer M, which is disposed in the vicinity of the pelvis opening 33 on the support pants body 30a.
