Disclosure of the invention

Problems to be solved by the invention

[0005] However, the above-described conventional technology has the following problems. (1) In the wound-type analgesic material of Patent Document 1, paper, cloth, non-woven fabric, stretchable cloth, or plastic film, which is the same as ordinary adhesive bandages and poultices, is used as the support material. For this reason, the air permeability is poor and the skin is likely to be stuffy or rash.

(2) When the support is provided with an adhesive layer, the support is formed in a band shape, etc., so that the adhesive layer has a large area in contact with the skin, and the skin is exposed to rashes and rashes. Prone to inflammation.

[0006] The present invention solves the above-described conventional problems, and it is possible to easily relieve unpleasant pain by simply attaching or sticking to a body surface and providing an appropriate stimulus to a receptor by a protrusion to easily relieve unpleasant pain. It is a pain relieving agent that can prevent skin rashes such as rashes and rashes due to its excellent ventilation in the summer and a small skin contact area. The purpose is to provide.

Means for solving the problem

In order to solve the above problems, the analgesic material of the present invention has the following configuration.

The analgesic according to claim 1 of the present invention is provided on a support formed of a net or a planar body having a large number of ventilation holes, and on a linear portion of one surface of the support. And a concavo-convex surface having a plurality of protrusions formed.

This configuration has the following effects.

(1) A support is attached to or attached to an arm, leg, finger, neck, etc., and an uneven surface protrusion near an affected area such as a sprain or a bruise, or an area that feels pain due to an injury (hereinafter referred to as an affected area). By touching, the pain in the affected area can be relieved. This is because one of the protrusions stimulates receptors that sense tactile or pressure sensations on the body surface, and the function of neural fibers that transmit those sensations to the cerebrum is activated, resulting in nerve fibers that transmit pain sensations. This is because it is thought that the function of the body is weakened and pain transmission is suppressed. In addition, the projections on the concavo-convex surface also abut on the acupuncture points to give stimulation and indirectly weaken the pain, thereby enhancing the analgesic action.

(2) Since the support is formed of a net or a planar body having a large number of ventilation holes, ventilation to the skin surface is ensured, stuffiness can be prevented, and excellent comfort especially in summer. . If it does not have an adhesive layer, it may cause irritation or skin irritation due to components contained in the adhesive layer or moisture. Inflammation can be prevented and wearability is excellent.

(3) Ability to relieve all pains such as headaches, abdominal pains or various diseases such as cancer, visceral diseases such as cancer, Parkinson's disease, menstrual pains, muscle pains, toothaches, etc. Yes, even if you can't take the medicine or if the medicine doesn't work, it can work effectively and remove the pain of the wearer.

(4) By wearing it in a state where pain has occurred, it is possible to prepare for chronic diseases such as V, low back pain that do not know if pain will occur, and prevent the occurrence of pain in advance. It is easy to use.

Here, as the support, a thermoplastic resin such as polyethylene or polypropylene is formed into a belt-like or cylindrical mesh by continuous extrusion using a net extrusion die, natural yarn such as cotton yarn, nylon, etc. For example, a knitted fabric knitted with a synthetic yarn, a plastic sheet, a rubber sheet, a synthetic paper or the like in which a large number of air holes are formed is preferably used. When a support is formed by forming a vent hole in a planar body, the width of the linear portion can be set large, so that the projections on the uneven surface can be easily formed and the size of the projections can be set freely. If there is an adhesive layer, the area can be increased, so it is necessary to use force S to perform exercises etc. while sticking it hard to peel off.

The support preferably has stretchability. As a result, in the case of a cylindrical support, it is easy to attach, and by attaching or sticking, it can be attached to each body part of the limbs and the body surface such as the neck and give a moderate stimulus to the protrusion, which is high. An analgesic action can be obtained, and the blood flow can be maintained without impairing the natural healing power and healing can be accelerated. In the case of a plastic net, it is possible to have a stretch force in the circumferential direction by forming it into a rhombus net (the rhombus is a rhombus). In the case of a knitted fabric, it is possible to give stretchability in a predetermined direction by the force using a polyurethane elastic yarn or stretchable yarn as a mesh yarn, or by a mesh structure. In the case of a planar body, stretchability can be imparted by molding rubber such as ethylene propylene rubber (EPDM) into a sheet.

In the case of a planar body that does not have stretchability, the size of the vent hole may be adjusted by forming a staggered cut and adjusting the force that pulls the planar body perpendicular to the cut.

The support is formed in a cylindrical shape and threaded around the affected area, or it is formed in a belt shape and wrapped around the affected area. You can. By providing engaging portions such as hook-and-loop fasteners, hooks, and snap buttons that are detachable from each other at least at both ends of the support, it is possible to easily wrap the analgesic material around the affected area. Further, the planar body itself as a support is formed by a surface fastener having a flange surface or a loop surface, and an uneven surface is formed on the flat surface side, and a loop surface or a flange surface is provided at one end of the flat surface side. If a hook-and-loop fastener is installed, the winding length and winding capacity can be easily adjusted with a small number of parts, and it is excellent in mass productivity and versatility.

[0009] As the protrusions on the uneven surface, adhesives such as thermoplastic resins such as soft polychlorinated bur resin and polyolefin (polyethylene and polypropylene), and hard urethane epoxy resin are formed at the intersections of the linear portions of the support. For example, a thermosetting resin adhered in a protruding shape and cured. Further, the protrusions may be integrally formed when the net body or planar body is formed. Since the uneven surface can be easily formed, the number of manufacturing steps and the cost can be reduced. In addition, when the support is formed of a knitted fabric, the bead-like granular material in which the hole is formed can be fixed with a mesh thread to form a projection. The protrusions may be formed across a plurality of line portions of the net body. This makes it possible to form protrusions having a height and diameter sufficient to give a stimulus to the body surface regardless of the size of the mesh. In addition, when the protrusion is formed at the intersection so as to straddle the warp and weft, the protrusion can be held at a predetermined position where the mesh body is difficult to twist, and the protrusion can stimulate the entire affected area evenly without unevenness. Yes, with excellent certainty of analgesic action.

[0010] As the shape of the projections on the concavo-convex surface, those having a substantially hemispherical shape, a substantially cannonball shape, a substantially prismatic shape, a substantially pyramidal shape, a substantially conical shape, etc. are used. In particular, if the surface does not have a pointed portion such as a substantially hemispherical shape or a bullet-like shape, the diameter is formed to be relatively small, and if it has a pointed portion such as a substantially pyramid shape or a substantially conical shape, the diameter is reduced. It is preferable to form relatively large! It is possible to apply sufficient stimulation to activate the function of nerve fibers to receptors on the surface of the body, and to obtain an analgesic effect reliably.

The height of the projections on the uneven surface is preferably 0.2 mm to 1 Omm. In addition, the diameter of the protrusion depends on its shape and height, the width of the line part of the support, etc., but it is 0.2 mm to 10 mm. As a result, since moderate pressure can be applied within a range in which the natural healing power can be maintained without hindering blood flow while minimizing the pressure on the blood vessels, a high analgesic effect can be obtained. In addition, because it can apply pressure to acupoints, it also has an indirect analgesic effect. The ability to increase S. Here, as the height of the protrusion becomes lower than 0.2 mm, the strength of pressing the receiving container and acupuncture points on the body surface tends to decrease, and the prescribed analgesic effect tends not to be obtained, and as the height becomes higher than 10 mm. Neither is preferred because the pressure on the skin, blood vessels, etc. is increased and the pain tends to become stronger or the blood flow is disturbed. Note that it is preferable that the diameter of the protrusions be equal to or greater than the height of the protrusions to prevent the protrusions from falling down. However, when the protrusions are formed to be larger than the height of the protrusions, the shape of the protrusions may be conical or pyramidal. For example, it is preferable to form a shape with a sharp top so that it can be sufficiently stimulated.

The height of the protrusion is set to such a height that can give an appropriate stimulus according to the body part within the above range.

[0011] The density of protrusions on the concavo-convex surface is 0.1 piece / cm ^{2 to} 400 pieces / cm ² . As a result, it is possible to sufficiently and surely stimulate receptors such as tactile sensations on the body surface of the wearer, and to increase the effect of relieving pain. If the number of protrusions is less than 0.1 per 1 cm ^{2, the} receptor cannot be sufficiently stimulated. If the number of protrusions exceeds 400, the pressure effect is too high and the pressing effect tends to be obtained. Preferred les.

In addition, the protrusion can be arranged at any position on the line portion that is formed only by the intersection of the line portion and the line portion of the support.
