accessories

The present invention relates to personal accessories such as masks, clothes, accessories, wristwatches, and pillows that are used in close proximity to or in contact with the body.

Recently, various masks have been proposed to prevent the intrusion of bacteria and viruses. In particular, Patent Document 1 not only traps viruses with the mask body, but also inactivates viruses with an antiviral agent. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the spread of viruses from used masks.

JP 2008-37814 A

However, even if this type of mask can exterminate bacteria and viruses that adhere to the surface of the mask or invade the inside of the mask, it cannot prevent bacteria and viruses from approaching or adhering to the mask. . As long as bacteria, viruses, dust, pollen, etc. come close to the mask, they can adhere to the skin not covered by the mask and then enter the mouth and nose.

In particular, if static electricity occurs on or near the body, bacteria, viruses, dust, pollen, etc., can adhere to masks, clothing and other body-worn items, accessories, wristwatches, pillows and other bedding, etc. many. Therefore, as long as static electricity is generated near the body, it is impossible to prevent bacteria, viruses, dust, pollen, etc. from adhering to the body or entering the body.

The present invention has been proposed in consideration of such circumstances, and its purpose is to prevent bacteria, viruses, dust, pollen, etc. from adhering to or entering the body due to static electricity generated around the body. To provide a personal accessory such as a mask and accessories that can be suppressed. Another object of the present invention is to use such a personal accessory to remove static electricity generated around one's body, thereby reducing the adverse effects of static electricity itself on the body.

In order to achieve the above object, the personal belongings of the present invention comprise a personal belongings main body having a conductor, which is used in close proximity to or in contact with the body; and a ground portion for releasing static electricity generated in the device.

Since the personal effects of the present invention are configured as described above, it is possible to prevent bacteria, viruses, dust, pollen, etc. from adhering to or entering the body by removing static electricity from the main body of the personal effects. Also, by removing static electricity, the adverse effects of static electricity itself on the body can be reduced.

Mask body 3 of mask 1 shown in FIG. It is Ear hooking portions 5 are provided on both left and right outer sides of the surface sheet 20 . The ear hooking portion 5 is integrated with the surface sheet 20. - 特許庁The ear hooking portion 5 may be made of the same material as the topsheet 20 or may be made of a different material.

The surface sheet 20 is formed by connecting the mask sheets 20a arranged on the left and right sides, and preferably has a three-dimensional shape so that the center thereof protrudes forward in correspondence with the nose, but is not limited to this. , a plurality of pleats running in the lateral direction may be provided so as to be three-dimensionally deformable.

A fixing portion 26 for fixing the ground portion 30 is provided on the surface of the surface sheet 20 . The fixing portion 26 has hooks 26a and loops 26b of hook-and-loop fasteners. 3 is detachable.

The ground portion 30 has a diameter of 1 to 5 cm, preferably about 1 to 2 cm, and a height (thickness) of 0.5 to 3 cm, preferably about 0.5 to 1 cm. It contains a static electricity remover 31 . Note that the shape of the container 32 is not limited to a cylindrical shape. Also, the material of the container 32 is synthetic resin, metal, or the like.

The static electricity removing liquid 31 in the container 32 is configured to be connected to the conductive wire 50 that is drawn out from the conductive sheet 10 and is a part of the conductor. The details of the connection mode between the ground portion 30 and the conductive sheet 10 will be described later together with the description of FIG.

Next, the configuration of the conductive sheet 10 will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 5. FIG. FIG. 2 is a front view and a partially enlarged front view of the conductive sheet 10, and FIGS.

The conductive sheet 10 is a fabric sheet using conductive threads 11 having conductivity. The conductive sheet 10 may also be formed three-dimensionally by connecting two sheets in the same manner as the topsheet 20, but since it is a flexible sheet, it does not have to be three-dimensional. Also, the outer shape of the conductive sheet 10 does not have to match the outer shape of the top sheet 20, and the outer shape may at least cover the nose and mouth.

As shown in FIG. 2, the conductive yarns 11 may be used as weft yarns, and the warp yarns 13 may be other yarns, yarns containing metal components, yarns made of natural fibers, yarns containing chemical fibers, or the like. Both the weft yarn 11 and the warp yarn 13 are twisted yarns.

As shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, the thread material 12 used as the material of the conductive thread 11 includes a surface synthetic resin film layer 121, a carbon-containing resin adhesive layer 122 containing a carbon material 122a, and a base material. and at least a material layer 123 . The thread material 12 may be layered to include at least the three layers described above, but may have additional layers, such as four layers or more.

The thread material 12 having such a layer structure is preferably manufactured by cutting a sheet material 12A having the same layer structure as the thread material 12 into strips, as shown in FIG. 3(c).

The base material layer 123 is composed of two layers including a base material synthetic resin film layer 123a and a Japanese paper layer 123b, and the sheet material 12A and the thread material 12 are composed of a total of four layers.

The sheet material 12A is formed by applying a carbon-containing resin agent containing the carbon material 122a to the surface of the base material synthetic resin film layer 123a of the two layers of the base material sheet 123 with a roller or the like, and applying a synthetic resin agent for the surface thereon. By bonding and forming the resin film layers 121, the four layers described above are formed.

The width of the strip-shaped thread material 12 is set to about 0.1 to 5 mm, but it is not limited to this. The thread material 12 may be thread-like or fibrous with a small width, or may be wider.

Materials for the surface synthetic resin film layer 121 and the substrate synthetic resin film layer 123a include polyester films and nylon films. Further, the surface synthetic resin film layer 121 and the base material synthetic resin film layer 123a may be made of the same material, or may be made of different materials. Also, the thickness of each layer is desirably 6 to 9 μm, but is not limited to this.

In addition, since the base material synthetic resin film layer 123a is arranged between the Japanese paper layer 123b and the carbon-containing resin adhesive layer 122, the color does not directly appear on the surface, but the color is displayed through the light-colored Japanese paper layer 123b. A transparent, semi-transparent or light-colored material is preferably used so that the transparent material does not show through.

Examples of the resin agent used as the main agent 122b of the carbon-containing resin adhesive layer 122 include, but are not limited to, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), enamel oil-based paint, and lacquer paint. A lacquer paint is preferable as the base material 122b because it easily disperses the mixed carbon material 122a.

As the carbon material 122a contained in the main agent 122b, it is desirable to use graphite particles (graphite powder) of 3 to 10 μm, for example, highly crystalline graphite flake of 5 to 10 μm. Instead of this, earthy graphite and artificial graphite can also be used. In addition, carbon black such as acetylene black (having a particle size of 1 micron or less), ketjen black, furnace black, or the like, which has a small particle size and is highly conductive, is further added as another carbon material 122a, and is used in the gaps between the graphite particles. may be arranged to enhance conductivity. Although the crystallinity is inferior to that of flake graphite, flake graphite may be used.

In addition, experiments have shown that using a mixture of either graphite or carbon black reduces the electrical resistance (increases conductivity) rather than using either one alone.

Therefore, in order to form the thread material 12 with high conductivity, the mixing ratio of graphite and carbon black is desirably in the range of 9:1 to 1:9, more preferably 5:5 to 8:2. It is desirable to be in the range of Of course, only one of them may constitute the carbon material 122a.

The carbon material 122a is not limited to the above materials, and carbon nanotubes (single-layer, multi-layer), graphene, and carbon nanofibers can also be used.

When lacquer paint is used as the main agent 122b, the content (% by weight) of the carbon material 122a is desirably 5 to 50% in the state of the carbon-containing resin agent. is volatilized and cured to form the carbon-containing resin adhesive layer 122, the content is preferably 50 to 90%. In addition, the thickness of the formed carbon-containing resin adhesive layer 122 is 3 to 15 μm, considering the balance between the flexibility as a thread of the thread material 12 to be manufactured and the conductivity when used as a conductive thread. Preferably, the thickness is 10 μm or less.

Since such a carbon-containing resin agent is sandwiched between the surface synthetic resin film layer 121 and the base synthetic resin film layer 123a and cured as the carbon-containing resin adhesive layer 122, the carbon material 122a may fall off. Very little of it.

The conductive thread 11 is a twisted thread obtained by twisting the thread material 12 thus formed. The twisted yarn may be formed of only the thread material 12, or may be formed by winding the thread material 12 around a core thread 124 made of another fibrous material, as shown in FIG.

The material of the core thread 124 in this example includes cupra, rayon, and woolly nylon. In this case, the thread material 12 is wound around the core thread 124 with the surface synthetic resin film layer 121 exposed on the surface and the Japanese paper layer 123b that is weak against moisture (easily torn by moisture) is the winding surface, that is, inside. Just do it. After the thread material 12 is wound, the whole can be steamed. By doing so, the thread material 12 is less likely to be frayed or peeled off.

Note that a twisted yarn may be formed by winding a Japanese paper sheet that is not easily torn by water around the core yarn 124 so that the Japanese paper layer 123b is exposed. When the surface of the Japanese paper layer 123b is exposed in this way, a decorative layer such as a metal deposition film or metal foil may be provided on the exposed surface of the Japanese paper layer 123b.

Also, since Japanese paper is weak against water, natural fiber materials such as silk, cotton, hemp, etc., or chemical fiber materials different from those used for the base material synthetic resin film layer 123a may be used instead of Japanese paper sheets. If a water-resistant natural fiber material sheet is used instead of the Japanese paper sheet, the thread material 12 can be wound around the core thread 124 so that the back surface of the natural fiber material sheet (the back surface of the base sheet 123) is exposed to the surface. good.

Furthermore, in the case of manufacturing a stretchy thread, stretchy nylon or the like is used as the core thread 124, and natural fiber material or the like, which is more stretchable than Japanese paper, is used as the base material layer 123 instead of Japanese paper. A chemical fiber material may be used.

The conductive yarn 11 used as the conductive sheet 10 is not limited to the above twisted yarn. As the conductive thread 11, it is desirable to use the above carbon material, preferably graphite. Of course, a metal thread using a metal having conductivity may be used as the conductive thread 11 .

The conductive sheet 10 is formed of the weft yarns (conductive yarns) 11 formed in this way and the warp yarns 13, as described above. A portion of the weft 11 is drawn out as a conductive wire 50 for connection to the ground portion 30, as shown in FIG. 1(b).

On the other hand, the surface sheet 20 has a layered structure. As shown in FIG. 5(a), the surface sheet 20 in this embodiment has a configuration in which two nonwoven fabric sheets 21 made of chemical fibers such as PP or PE or natural fibers are laminated and a binder layer 23 is provided between them. be. An inorganic antibacterial agent 22 is adhered as an antibacterial agent to the inside or surface of one or both of the nonwoven fabric sheets 21 .

Examples of the inorganic antibacterial agent 22 include those composed of metals or metal ions having an antibacterial action such as silver, copper, and zirconium carried on an inorganic carrier. company) is preferably used. This inorganic antibacterial agent 22 is made into fine particles with a particle size of about 1 μm, and can be used in a state of being kneaded into fibers.

For example, a mixed solution of the inorganic antibacterial agent 22 and a synthetic resin liquid is generated, the nonwoven fabric sheet 21 is immersed in the mixed solution, and then the nonwoven fabric sheet 21 is taken out and dried, so that the inorganic antibacterial agent 22 is immersed, A fixed nonwoven fabric sheet 21 is obtained. For example, a nonwoven fabric sheet 21 of 1 m ² to which about 1 gram of an inorganic antibacterial agent 22 is fixed is preferably used. The nonwoven fabric sheet 21 to which the inorganic antibacterial agent 22 is adhered in this manner has a low possibility of the inorganic antibacterial agent 22 falling off thereafter.

This type of inorganic antibacterial agent 22 includes not only antibacterial agents targeting bacteria, but also antibacterial agents targeting viruses (correctly, antiviral agents). The former can be used against both bacteria and viruses, although its antiviral performance is not so high. The latter exhibits antibacterial properties by suppressing the metabolism of bacteria. Antiviral agents include "Novaron IV1000," whose antiviral performance has been confirmed according to ISO18184 standards.

As described above, there are various types of agents, such as those whose main targets are bacteria and those whose main targets are viruses. However, various inorganic antibacterial agents 22 may be used in combination in order to develop both antibacterial and antiviral functions.

Titanium apatite, which is a photocatalyst, can also be used as the inorganic antibacterial agent 22 . Titanium apatite has excellent adsorptivity and is said to be capable of adsorbing and decomposing many bacteria and viruses. Titanium oxide can also be used as the inorganic antibacterial agent 22 .

Furthermore, instead of or in addition to the inorganic antibacterial agent 22, an organic antibacterial agent may be used. When an organic antibacterial agent is used, it may be used for the surface sheet 20 in the same manner as the inorganic antibacterial agent 22. However, the weft 11 and the warp 13, which are the constituent materials of the conductive sheet 10, are mixed with a solution containing an organic antibacterial agent. may be impregnated.

A binder layer 23 is arranged between the two layers of nonwoven fabric sheets 21 . This binder layer 23 contains particulate or powdered activated carbon 24 . Examples of the activated carbon 24 include particulate activated carbon 24 produced mainly from vegetable raw materials such as coal, wood, bamboo, and coconut shells; For example, activated carbon 15 which is not spherical fine particles made from phenol resin) can also be used. Of course, these may be mixed and used.

Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5B, the binder layer 23 is thermally cured and cracked, and the cracks form air passages 23b in gaps between the hardened adhesives 23a. The surface of the activated carbon 24 is exposed to the outside air via 23b and the internal spaces of both sheets sandwiching the binder layer 23 .

The binder layer 23 is formed by sandwiching activated carbon 24 soaked in an ionomer resin solution between two sheets, curing the solution at 40 degrees, and fixing the activated carbon 24 sandwiched between the sheets. formed.

Also, the binder layer 23 may have a structure as shown in FIG. 5(c). The binder layer 23 uses a thermoplastic resin powder 23d as an adhesive, and in a state where an air layer 23c is included, the binder layer 23 is bonded point-to-point so that a part of the surface of the activated carbon 24 is held by a plurality of thermoplastic resin powders 23d. It is configured to be glued with Therefore, even with this binder layer 23, the activated carbon 24 communicates with the outside air.

Since the activated carbon 24 is arranged so as to be exposed to the outside air in this way, the deodorizing function due to the porosity of the activated carbon 24 can be ensured even if it is sandwiched between the sheets. Further, if the binder layer 23 includes the air passages 23b and the air layer 23c in this way, moisture absorption and humidity control effects can be expected.

The spherical fine particle activated carbon 25 of the activated carbon 24 has a porous, substantially spherical shape as shown in FIG. The spherical fine particle activated carbon 25 is formed with a plurality of holes 25a that are open on the surface of the sphere. These holes 25a have a plurality of macro holes 25b that are formed from the surface of the sphere toward the inside of the sphere. Micropores 25c are formed. The pore diameter dimension of the micropores 25c is smaller than the diameter of the macropores 25b.

As the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25, one having a carbon purity of 90% or more is preferably used, and one having a carbon purity of 99.9% or more may be used. In addition, those having a spherical diameter of 150 to 600 μm, more preferably 180 to 500 μm may be used. Moreover, it is desirable to use a pore volume of 0.9 to 2.0 cm ³ /g and a pore peak diameter of about 0.5 to 2.0 μm. Here, the pore volume is the sum of the pore volumes of all the macropores 25b and micropores 25c formed in the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25, and the pore peak diameter is the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25. refers to the largest opening diameter among the many holes 25a on the surface of the .

In this embodiment, the spherical microparticle activated carbon 25 is made of carbonized phenolic resin and has a specific surface area of 1000 m ² /g or more. Here, the specific surface area is the sum of the area of the spherical surface of the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25 and the area of the surfaces forming the macropores 25b and the micropores 25c of all the pores 25a.
The spherical fine particle activated carbon 25 may be produced, for example, as follows.

First, the raw materials such as phenolic resin are pulverized, and the pulverized pieces are processed to obtain multiple spheres. After the spheres are carbonized at a high temperature (eg, about 700-800° C.), the treated product is reacted with steam at a high temperature (eg, about 900-1000° C.) (steam activation). This steam activation forms a porous structure. Thereafter, purification is performed to remove impurities, and sieving is performed to obtain spherical fine particle activated carbon 25 in which a large number of pores 25a having desired particle diameters and desired macropores 25b and micropores 25c are formed. Activation is not limited to steam activation, and may be performed using carbon dioxide, air, or the like. Further, alkali activation using KOH or the like may be performed.

As the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25, for example, B's Wiper (registered trademark) or one manufactured by the manufacturing method disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 4266711 and Japanese Patent No. 4308740 can be suitably used.

In addition, as the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25, one that does not break into pieces even when strong pressure or impact is applied, and that does not have the risk of pigments adhering to the skin, for example, the above B's Wiper (registered trademark) is used. It is desirable to Further, it is desirable that the pH value is around 7 (neutral).

In addition, an antibacterial agent such as the inorganic antibacterial agent 22 may be contained in the holes 25a of the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25. The inorganic antibacterial agent 22 may be dispersed in the resin liquid so as to impregnate the pores 25 a of the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25 . Note that the inorganic antibacterial agent 22 may be contained in particulate activated carbon 24 made from a vegetable raw material such as coconut shells.

Also, the hole 25a may contain a deodorant as the functional substance 25d. As the deodorant, one having the action of decomposing the odorous component by oxidizing the odorous component with active oxygen to change it into another substance may be used. One such deodorant is DEORASE®. This DEORASE (registered trademark) does not reduce the deodorizing effect due to desorption of the central metal under alkaline conditions, and brings about a cycle reaction similar to enzymes in the body, so it is possible to use other chemical reactions for deodorizing. The deodorant effect lasts much longer than other agents. In addition, it is generally known that the reactivity of the cycle reaction is lowered by moisture due to moisture absorption, but DEORASE (registered trademark) is known to improve the reactivity by moisture absorption.

As the deodorant, other than this, for example, one using an artificial enzyme such as iron-based phthalocyanine may be used. Further, the holes 25a may contain an aromatic agent as another functional substance 25d. As the aromatic agent, a substance containing various odorous components such as citrus fruit may be used, or an aroma oil or the like may be used. Also, it may be made of natural materials or artificially synthesized.

When the functional substance 25d such as the inorganic antibacterial agent 22, deodorant, or aromatic agent is included in the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25, the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25 is soaked in a resin solution layer such as an ionomer resin solution. The physical substance 25d may be dissolved or dispersed and adsorbed on the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25. FIG. Since the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25 is superporous, it is possible to easily incorporate these functional substances 25d into the pores 25a of the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25 by this method. In particular, since the hole 25a of the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25 is open toward the approximate center of the sphere, the functional substance 25d is less likely to fall off.

Thus, the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25 not only has a deodorizing function (odor absorbing function) due to its porous structure, but also various other functions if the functional substance 25d is stored in the hole 25a as described above. Effective. The activated carbon 24 also has the effect of adsorbing fine particles (droplets, droplet nuclei) containing viruses floating in the air.

The activated carbon 24 containing the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25 described above is sterilized by various sterilization methods such as high temperature and high pressure sterilization, high temperature sterilization, and low temperature sterilization before being arranged as the binder layer 23 in the manufacturing process of the surface sheet 20. , preferably sterile.

Also, the activated carbon 24 can be prevented from coming off if it is placed in the binder layer 23 between the nonwoven fabric sheets 21 , but it may be placed inside the nonwoven fabric sheet 21 as with the inorganic antibacterial agent 22 . Therefore, in such a case, the binder layer 23 is not required, and the topsheet 20 may be formed of one nonwoven fabric sheet 21 . Of course, the topsheet 20 may be a stack of three or more nonwoven fabric sheets 21 .

As the non-woven fabric sheet 21, various materials such as polyethylene fibers and polypropylene fibers may be used, and those formed by the spabond method or the melt blow method may be used. Also, a melt-blown non-woven fabric sheet generally used as a countermeasure against PM2.5 may be provided between the topsheet 20 and the conductive sheet 10 .

In addition, the activated carbon 24 made from a synthetic resin such as the spherical fine particle activated carbon 25 has many fine pores 25a and a very large specific surface area. It is desirable to include a large amount of activated carbon 24 .

Next, the detailed structure of the ground portion 30 included in the mask 1 and the connection mode between the ground portion 30 and the conductive sheet 10 will be described with reference to FIG.

The grounding portion 30 is configured such that the static electricity removing liquid 31 is contained in the container 32 as described above. A surfactant or the like is used as the static electricity removing liquid 31, and a cooling agent may be added. Alternatively, a cooling agent may be used as the static remover 31 . The cooling agent is composed of, for example, carboxymethyl cellulose. Tests have shown that the static electricity removing liquid 31 has a static removing effect regardless of the amount of capacity and the elapsed time (up to 8 hours).

The container 32 has a container body 33 with a threaded portion 33a and a lid 34 that can be detachably attached to the container body 33 by screwing. It has a connecting portion 40 of a shape. The connection portion 40 is constructed by fitting a cylindrical cap 42 to a cylindrical small cylindrical projection 41 . The cap 42 has a packing 43 made of an elastic material such as rubber in the center of the cover plate, and a hole 43a into which the conductive wire 50 is inserted is formed in the center of the circle of the packing 43. As shown in FIG. The pores 43a are desirably closed with elasticity so that the static electricity removing liquid 31 inside the container 32 does not flow inside and outside.

The packing 43 includes a base portion 44 fixed to a round hole provided in the center of the cover plate of the cap 42, a flange portion 45 fixed to the corner between the cover plate and the peripheral wall, and a base portion 44 toward the opening of the cap 42. and an elongated cylindrical mounting body 46 . A mounting guide portion 47 is formed at the tip of the mounting body 46 . As shown in FIGS. 7(b) and 7(c), the packing 43 has a mounting body 46 fitted (inwardly fitted) into the projecting hole 41a of the small cylindrical projection 41, and a flange 45 of the packing 43 is fitted into the small cylindrical projection 41. , and the peripheral wall of the cap 42 is fitted onto the small cylindrical projection 41 . That is, the peripheral wall of the small cylindrical projection fits into the gap of the double cylinder formed by the cap 42 and the packing 43 .

Further, as shown in the figure, by engaging a locking groove 41b provided along the circumferential direction of the outer peripheral surface of the small cylindrical projection 41 with a locking projection 42a provided on the inner surface of the peripheral wall of the cap 42, the The cap 42 is tightly fitted to the small cylindrical projection 41 . A plurality of locking projections 42a may be provided along the circumferential direction.

On the other hand, the conductive wire 50 has a bar-shaped metal body 51 at its tip. The metal body 51 has a shaft portion 52 larger in diameter than the pore 43 a of the packing 43 and a tip portion 53 larger in diameter than the shaft portion 52 . By inserting the metal body 51 of the conductive wire 50 through the hole 43a, the metal body 51 is brought into contact with the static electricity removing liquid 31, and the two are electrically connected.

The tip of the tip portion 53 is thin and easy to insert into the hole 43a, and the entire tip portion 53 passes through the hole 43a. can be suppressed.

In this manner, the connection portion 40 and the cap 42 are separable, and the conductive wire 50 can be freely inserted into and removed from the packing 43, so that the ground portion 30 and the conductive wire 50 can be easily connected. Of course, it is also possible to simply make the conductive wire 50 freely insertable and detachable. Furthermore, the ground portion 30 and the conductive wire 50 (conductive sheet 10) may be integrated so as not to be detachable.

Also, since the cap 42 can be removed, the static electricity removal liquid 31 may be injected from the projecting hole 41 a of the small cylindrical projection 41 . The container 32 then need not have a lid 34 . In addition, if the grounding portion 30 does not have the lid 34, if the hole 43a is closed, it will be in a sealed state, and there is almost no risk of liquid leakage.

According to the mask 1 described above, static electricity charged in the mask body 3 flows to the ground portion 30 through the conductive sheet 10 and the conductive wire 50 . In this manner, the surface of the mask body 3 can be suppressed from being charged with static electricity. In particular, although the conductive sheet 10 is electrically charged by static electricity generated by the human body, the static electricity can be released because the conductive sheet 10 is connected to the ground portion.

Therefore, such a static elimination process can suppress charging of the mask 1, thereby suppressing bacteria, viruses, microorganisms, dust, pollen, etc. from being attracted to the mask body 3 by static electricity. This effectively prevents them from entering the mouth and nose of the user wearing the mask 1 . Even if bacteria or viruses adhere to the mask main body 3, the presence of the inorganic antibacterial agent 22 can prevent living bacteria or viruses from entering through the mouth or nose.

Next, a personal accessory according to another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. This personal accessory is also a mask 1A, and a container 32 having a container main body 33 and a lid 34 containing a static electricity remover 31 is used as the ground part 30A in the same manner as the one shown in FIG.

This mask 1A is different from that of FIG. 1 in the configuration and arrangement of the grounding portion 30A, and the fixing portion 26 is configured to attach the grounding portion 30A to the mounting hole 26c of the mask main body 3A. The mask main body 3A has a surface sheet 20 and a conductive sheet 10, and mounting holes 26c are formed in both sheets.

The ground portion 30B includes a cylindrical container 32, and the carbon sheet 80 has a circular shape that matches the shape of the container 32. As shown in FIG.

The carbon sheet 80 is made by rolling expanded graphite. For example, the graphite used for manufacturing the conductive thread 11 used as the material of the conductive sheet 10 in FIG. 1 is used. A cloth may be applied to the skin-contacting surface of the carbon sheet 80 .

Further, the grounding portion 30B is formed by accommodating the static electricity remover 31 in a container 32 consisting of a container body 33 and a lid 34. The container main body 33 and the lid 34 are detachable by screwing the peripheral wall portions together, and a packing 34b is interposed outside the screwed portion to prevent liquid leakage.

The outer surface of the lid body 34a is concavely curved, and a screw hole 34c is formed in the center of the concavely curved surface. It is in contact with the static remover 31 . It is desirable that the screw hole 34c and the bolt shaft 57 are fixed with an adhesive so that the static electricity removing liquid 31 does not leak out from the screw hole 34c. A carbon bolt may be used as the conductive bolt 55 .

The bolt head 56 of the conductive bolt 55 protrudes to substantially the same height as the outer periphery of the lid body 34a, and the carbon sheet 80 is fixed to the outer periphery of the lid body 34a so as to contact the bolt head 56. That is, the conductor includes the carbon sheet 80 and the conductive bolt 55 .

As a temporary effect of static electricity on the body, there is an electric shock when it falls on clothes or doorknobs, which often occurs in dry seasons. In addition, various diseases and injuries are caused by static electricity as continuous effects on the body. For example, static electricity causes skin roughness and hair pain, and promotes poor blood flow. Poor blood flow can lead to rough skin, stiff shoulders, sensitivity to cold, joint pain, and arteriosclerosis.

Originally, red blood cells, which are negatively charged, repel each other, causing blood to flow smoothly. The stream is clogged. Static electricity thus has a detrimental effect on the body. In addition, poor blood flow (blood muddy) triggers obesity, creating a vicious cycle in which static electricity accumulates in fat, which can lead to static electricity accumulation and lead to lifestyle-related diseases.

Static electricity accumulated on the surface of the body can be temporarily removed by various personal items (masks) 1 other than the

necklaces

200 and 200A. It is effective to remove static electricity with a personal accessory attached to the body. In particular, since four arteries pass through the neck, the

necklaces

200 and 200A and the neck ring 260 described later with reference to FIG. 14 are effective.

In addition, there is a risk of inducing Alzheimer's disease due to the effects of static electricity on the brain and nervous system. Such adverse effects of static electricity can be reduced by accessories such as

necklaces

200 and 200A.

In this way, by using personal items such as the

necklaces

200 and 200A close to or in contact with the body to remove static electricity, it is possible to reduce the adverse effects of static electricity itself on the body.

Furthermore, the personal accessories of the present invention include bedding such as a pillow 250 and a futon. FIG. 14 is an illustration of a pillow 250 according to an embodiment of the invention.

A button-like conductive contact 254 is fixed to the top surface of the cold pack, which is electrically connected to the cold gel inside.

For the pillow cover 251, a carbon sheet 251a made by rolling expanded graphite, a conductive sheet 251b made of conductive thread, or the like may be used to give conductivity to the whole. For example, it may be formed of a two-layer sheet having a conductive sheet 251b on the front side and a carbon sheet 251a on the back side. Further, the inorganic antibacterial agent 22 or activated carbon 24 may be adhered to the pillow cover 251 of the pillow body 252 .

By using such a pillow 250, static electricity generated by rubbing or tangling of the user's hair can be released to the ground portion 253 through the pillow cover 251, which is a conductor. As a result, it is possible to prevent dust and pollen from approaching the body. Since the pillow 250 includes a cold insulation pack, it can also be used as a cooling pillow for heat removal and heat removal.
