Description

  The present invention relates to an annular band.

  FIG. 10 and FIG. 11 show the shoulder-type hug bands that are typical forms of conventional annular bands. In FIG. 10, an annular band 101 is configured as a shoulder abutment portion 102 to which a cushioning material or a batter is added, and a child holding portion 103 that is stitched to the shoulder abutment portion 102 and whose opposing surface is formed in a curved shape in advance. (Patent Document 1).

11 shows a child formed on the opposite surface of the shoulder abutment 202 while a part of the annular band 201 is narrowed and shrunk so as to be narrower than the other part and stitched to the shoulder abutment 202 having elasticity. A belt 230 is installed on one side edge of the holding band 203, and an elastic band piece 231 is installed on the other side edge (Patent Document 2).

Therefore, in the invention of Patent Document 1, the following is cited as a defect.
Since the child holding portion 103 is formed in a curved shape in advance in accordance with the shape of the buttocks of the infant using the child holding portion 103 as a recessed portion, it is complicated to measure the dimensions of the material.
Since it is designed to support the child sitting on the front of the user's body, it lacks the freedom of holding.
Moreover, in the invention of Patent Document 2, the following is cited as a defect.
It takes time to attach and detach the belt.
After installation, the opening on the belt side is blocked by the user's body, so only one opening can be used.
Since the belt is combined with metal fittings, care must be taken during use and storage location to prevent children from being hurt by the metal fittings.

  Furthermore, in the invention shown in Patent Document 2, there is a problem in that an unbalanced load applied to the child holding portion is reflected as it is as an unbalanced load on the shoulder portion (202) having a contraction and contraction. This problem will be described in more detail below with reference to FIG.

FIG. 12 is a side view of the ring-shaped holding band 201, and A, B, C, D, and E are defined as widths obtained by dividing the child holding portion 203 into equal widths by the width W of the shoulder abutment portion 202. The widths a, b, c, d, and e are shown in the portions where the shoulder abutment portion 202 corresponding to the above is folded and the cloth width is reduced and the shoulder abutment portion 202 is sewn to the shoulder abutment portion 202.

When a child is placed on the A width portion of the child holding portion 203, the child's load is applied to the portion a of the shoulder abutment portion 202, which is an extension of the A width, and the direction is determined by the center of gravity of the child and the virtual center of the surface to which a belongs. Gravity direction that connects Similarly, when a load is applied to each of B, C, D, and E, the load of the load is the surface to which b, c, d, and e of the support portion belong and connects the virtual center of the surface and the child's center of gravity. Hanging in the direction of gravity.

That is, in the case of a static unbalanced load in which a child rides on the entire surface A, B, C, D, E of the child holding portion 203, the position and direction in which the unbalanced load acts is partially As shown in FIG. 2, the unbalanced static uneven load applied to each part of A, B, C, D, and E is applied as it is to the respective surfaces of a, b, c, d, and e of the shoulder abutment part 2 as they are. The action position and direction are the positions of the virtual centers of the surfaces, and act in the direction of gravity connecting the virtual centers and the gravity centers of the children's weights on the surfaces.

Further, as a whole, when viewed as a whole, the load center of the support portion is used as a virtual center, and acts in the direction of gravity connecting the virtual center and the child's center of gravity at the position of the virtual center.

By the way, when the child moves in the holding part, that is, when a dynamic eccentric load is applied to each part of A, B, C, D, E, the position and direction of the load acting on the support part as a whole Is the position of the virtual center that is the load center of the shoulder 2 and acts in the direction of gravity connecting the virtual center and the child's center of gravity. The position of movement is difficult for children to determine, so the frequency of movement increases, so for the user, the position and direction of the load change with fluctuations, so the posture is unstable. Therefore, both of them lack stability and safety.

In view of the above-described drawbacks of the conventional ring-shaped strap, the present invention always supports the entire support portion surface evenly with respect to the static or / and dynamic offset load applied to the holding portion surface. As the load is applied and the holding part swings, it is easy to be cured, and the object placed on the holding part is wrapped in the holding part surface (a concavo-convex concave arc shape), which is highly stable and comfortable. An object of the present invention is to provide an annular belt that is held in a state, easy to attach and detach, etc., easy to use, highly portable, easy to store, and has a simple structure and high safety.

The above and other objects and novel features of the present invention will become more fully apparent when the following description is read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the drawings are for explanation only and do not limit the technical scope of the present invention.

In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, a cylindrical cloth is uniformly folded into a wave fold with a cylindrical length of 1 / N (N is an integer of 2 or more) in the axial direction of the cylinder. A concave arc formed by fixing a part formed by a part in the circumferential direction and the whole in the width direction as a support part, and developing the remaining folded portions with the both ends of the support part as base points It is the annular belt which constituted the surface to become as a holding part.

In the second invention, a substantially rectangular cloth is folded evenly in a cloth width direction with a 1 / N width of the cloth width (N is an integer of 2 or more), and both ends of the folded surface are folded. A portion that is overlapped with a predetermined amount and fixed tightly is used as a support portion, and the remaining folded portion is formed as a holding portion by forming a concave arc surface formed by developing both ends of the support portion as base points. An annular belt.

Further, a third invention is an annular band in which a support portion and a holding portion are combined to form a substantially annular shape, and the support portion is a substantially rectangular shape made of a flexible material, and the holding portion A rectangular cloth having a width that is an integral multiple of the width of the support portion is folded evenly in the same width as the width of the support portion, and the folded surface is overlapped on the end of the support portion. It is an annular band configured to be a concave arcuate surface by unifying and fixing together, and developing a portion folded into the remaining wave folds with the joint-fixed portion as a base point.

  In the first invention, the second invention, and the third invention, the end portion of the holding portion that is folded in a wave fold is closely fixed to the end portion of the support portion with the same width as the width of the support portion. Then, by opening the holding portion with the closely fixed portion as a base point, the opened holding portion has a structure formed in a concave arc shape, and thus has the following operations and effects. .

That is, 1. The weight of the load placed on the holding part formed by opening the folded part is superimposed on the support part via the end part that is folded and fixed tightly, and as a result the entire surface of the support part If the user uses the ring belt support on his shoulder or suspends it on his arm, there is no partial compression or obstruction of blood flow for a long time. There is an effect that it can be used up.

2. In addition, the center of the surface of this support part becomes a virtual center of the load applied to the support part, and this virtual center is always at a constant position regardless of the dynamic and static uneven load of the load. Since the position in the gravitational direction connecting the center of gravity is simply determined, for example, even if a child moves on the holding part, it can move without an unstable feeling, and stability and safety are also improved for the user. There is an effect that it is secured.

3. Furthermore, the swinging of the holding part due to the use during walking and the movement of the load inside is caused by the tension that is antagonized in the width end part that is closely fixed to the support part while actually swinging around the virtual center. Since it is suppressed, there is little fluctuation width and it is stable in a short time, so that there is an effect that stability and safety are ensured for the load and the user.

4). Furthermore, the load placed on the concave arc-shaped holding part is folded and fixed in close contact, and the portion in contact with the holding part due to the antagonistic force generated at the width end of the supporting part is a conforming shape state corresponding to the shape of the object. Since it is held in a comfortable and stable state, for example, when a child rides, it is held comfortably, so it hardly moves, and the stability is also reduced because there is little load fluctuation for the user It has the effect of ensuring safety.

In addition, there are effects listed below. 5). Both sides of the holding part side can be used when taking in and out the object. 6). Since the structure is simple, it can be manufactured inexpensively and easily. 7). Easy to use, safe and easy to detach. 8). Because it is made of a safe material, even if it is used for a hug, it can be used without injuring the child and there is no need to worry about the storage location. 9. Since the finished form is almost the same, the front and back sides can be used.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described below in detail as Embodiments 1, 2, and 3 with reference to the drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the description of the embodiments, and the technical idea of the present invention is embodied. Various changes can be made.

1 to 7 show the present annular belt 1 in the first embodiment for carrying out the present invention shown in FIGS. 1 to 7, and the portion indicated by the dotted line shows the stitched stitches. .
The annular band 1 shown in FIG. 1A has a support portion 2 having a predetermined width W and a holding portion 3 having a width that is an integral multiple of the width W (5 times in this embodiment) stitched together at the ends. The holding part 3 which is an annular thing which has the joint part K, and follows the joint part K of the both ends of the support part 2 is folded in five steps by the width W of the support part 2, and the both ends of the support part 2 Is sewn to. By using the stitched joint K as a base point, a plurality of previous wave folds of the holding unit 3 are developed on the side opposite to the surface of the support unit 2, thereby forming the concave arc-shaped holding unit 3.

Then, the manufacturing process of this annular belt 1 is demonstrated using FIG.
1st process (cutting figure 2 (a))
As shown in FIG. 2 (a), the material to be the annular band 1 is cut into a square. In the drawing, the short sides F and H form the width of the holding portion 3, and the long sides G and I are cloths forming both sides of the opening 4.
Second step (Cylinder band production diagram 2 (b))
The short bands F and H are overlapped with a predetermined width L so that the lengths G and I become the cylinder circumference, and the overlapping portion Z is temporarily fixed to form a cylindrical band.
3rd process (wave folding process figure 2 (c))
As the crease marks on the cylindrical band, fold line marks having a predetermined uniform width W were marked with solid lines Y ₁ and Y ₂ as mountain fold lines and dotted lines T ₁ and T ₂ as valley fold lines. If the mountain folds and valley folds are alternately made along the cylinder circumference as indicated by the fold line mark, the mountain fold lines Y ₁ and Y ₂ overlap the cylinder end I, and the cylinder end G and the valley fold lines T ₁ and T ₂ Overlapping. Among the annular belts having the five-stage wave folding of A, B, C, D, E, the overlapping portion Z of the predetermined width L having the most overlapping thickness is stitched and joined to support part 2 The annular band 1 shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B is completed by integrating with the holding unit 3.

The basic operation of the present invention configured as described above will be described with reference to FIGS.
13 is a side view of the annular belt 1 of the present invention in a developed state (corresponding to FIG. 12 for explaining the operation of the conventional example). FIG. 14 is a view in which the holding portion of the annular belt 1 of the present invention is cut at the center and developed around the support portion.

In the figure, the points M, N, O, and P are the four corner points of the support portion 2 and the end points of the joint portion K with the support portion 2 of the folded holding portion 3. (B), (b), (c), (c), (d) and (e) indicate the surfaces folded in five steps. The A, C, and E planes continue to be developed from the connecting portion K in a plane, but the B plane is the F region, the D plane is inverted at the G site, and ΔM, H, N (ΔP, H, O) and ΔM, G, N (ΔP, Re, O) are still open areas.

Basic action 1 (equal load of the support part and equal holding of the holding part)
In FIG. 13, when a load is applied to the portion “a” of the holding portion 3, the load is applied to the width W of the surface of the support portion 2 that is an extended portion of the portion “i” and has the same width as the portion “a”. In the same theory, the load of B is also applied to W, and the loads of C, D, and E are also applied to W. Therefore, even if the weight of the load that is biased is applied to each of the parts of the holder 3 (i), (b), (c), (d), (e), the weight of each biased load is superimposed on the width W. The weight of the entire load is evenly applied between the widths W, and as a result, a substantially uniform load is applied to the entire surface of the support portion 2. Therefore, the holding unit 3 is also held equally.

Basic action 2 (Non-concave concave arcuate surface with tension and support for tension)
Expanding the holding part 3 which is a counter surface of the support portion 2 on the opposite side of the support part 2 in FIG. 14, the coupling portion K, the end points M of K, N, O, P are each 5 stages next supporting point The overlap of the overlapped cloth is opened, and the holding portion 3 is formed in a concave arc shape without deviation in the holding portion width direction. When the holding part 3 is expanded beyond the width W of the support part 2, the development surface is tension-supported from the coupling fulcrums M, N, O, and P. In particular, as the development width becomes wider (in the direction of the arrow), the end Q is pulled from N and O, and the other end V is pulled from M and P. , The concave arc deepens.

In addition, the part where the fold mountain and the fold valley of the fold overlapping part that still has room to open can be separated, and when the protruding part of the placement object is pressed, the cloth surface is pushed to open and bend, Deflections, deformations, and conforming action on the protrusions.

Basic action 3 (antagonism and control action against shaking of holding part)
When the Q portion of the holding portion 3 is shaken, the antagonistic action for returning the shake works mutually from the joint portions K and K that suspend the Q portion and the joint fulcrums M, N, O, and P. The same argument can be made for the R, S, T, U, and V parts. Further, when the holding portion 3 on which the load is placed swings due to the antagonistic action and the tension support of the basic action 2 described above, an action in which the shake is controlled works. Therefore, there is a restoring force, the center of gravity is easily determined, and the stability against shake is good. That is, it contributes to the stability of the support part 2.

Basic action 4 (When using a rack, it suppresses twisting while responding to twisting)
When the holding portion 3 is twisted due to the movement of the mounted object, the overlapping portions of the cloths that spread radially from the coupling fulcrums M, N, O, and P are twisted, overlapped, clogged, loosened, and released to respond to the twist.

However, in the state of use in which the user's diagonal upper body is passed through the two openings 4 (see FIGS. 4 (a) and 4 (b)) and the support portion 2 is placed on the shoulder, the holding portion 2 is twisted. This phenomenon occurs only on the front side of the body. If it twists at this part, a twist of a user's body will be prevented, and the effect | action of a gravity center will also work and a twist will be suppressed to the range of the effect of action according to the said twist.

That is, the holding unit 3 changes and corresponds to the overlap of the chest side of the user, and is transmitted to the overlapping part of the holding unit 3 that crosses the back surface as tensile pressure. At this time, the load of the load is applied to the connection fulcrums M, N, O, P and the connection portions K, K in a well-balanced manner, and even if the holding portion 3 is twisted, the load of the equal load is applied to the surface of the support portion 2. That is, even if the holding part 3 is twisted, it is moderately suppressed, the support part 2 is stabilized, and it feeds back to the holding part 3.

Basic action 5 (Distributed load on the contact surface)
The larger the area where the cloth surface of the holding part 3 with the placed object comes into contact with the user, the more the load of the weight of the holding part 3 is dispersed on the contact surface.
As described above, the present invention has five basic functions.

Inherent action 1 (flexibility and buffering action of support part)
The integrated part of the fold-over of the plurality of wave-folding cloths constituting the support part 2 exhibits flexibility and buffering action that moderately fits the user's body while being thick, Because it does not occur, it is in close contact with the user's body and does not shift even when overloaded. In the third preferred embodiment for carrying out the present invention, if a support member serving as a support portion having a property having the intrinsic action 1 is used, the same as the second and second embodiments. effective.

Hereinafter, the storage method and procedure of the annular belt 1 according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
First Procedure The holding portion 3 of the annular band 1 is folded into a wave fold along the ring with the width of the support portion 2 (see FIG. 1B).
Second Procedure Extending into an elongated circular shape with the support portion 2 as an end (FIG. 3A).
Third Procedure The folded and folded holding portions 3 are stretched and stretched into a single band (FIG. 3B).
Fourth Procedure A support part 2 located at the end of a single belt-like holding band is bent to the upper position of the holding part 3, and the intermediate part of the holding part 3 is twisted, and the holding part 3 following the twisted part The lower end of the ring is separated to form a ring (FIG. 3C).
Fifth Procedure The holding portion 3 is put into the ring of the holding portion 3 which is separated from the lower end portion of the holding portion 3 through the bent support portion 2 and the bent portion of the holding portion 3, and the storage is completed.

As described above, the present annular belt 1 can be stored compactly by a simple procedure, and is convenient for carrying. Because it is easy to put on and take off, it can be used immediately when needed. In addition, since no storage bag is required and the belt is just a stitched cloth, it can be safely stored without danger even if it is close to an infant.

Next, how to use the present annular band 1 for holding will be described with reference to FIGS.
When used for infants whose neck does not slide (Fig. 4 (a) (b))
An infant (hereinafter referred to as an infant) 5 whose neck is not slid is placed and stored in the holding part 3 of the annular band 1. There are the following two methods. In the first method, the annular band 1 is placed on the floor surface and the cloth surface of the holding portion 3 is sufficiently spread without hindrance. Then, the baby 5 is placed and stored in the width direction or slightly obliquely from the width direction, lifted around the support portion 2 and is placed on the shoulder of the user 6. In the second method, the user 6 hangs the support portion 2 on the shoulder, lays the infant 5 on the back, and from the opening 4 which is convenient for the holding portion 3, slightly in the width direction or in the width direction. This is a method of placing and storing diagonally, with an excess of fabric on the foot side. After storage, one hand of the user 6 supports the head and shoulders of the infant 5 and the other hand supports the waist and back from above the cloth. In this way, the user 6 holds his / her baby's natural chin posture at the position of the user's 6 abdomen with both hands on the cloth.

There are the following problems when holding the infant 5 whose neck does not slide.
1. You must hold your neck steady.
2. The infant 5 who is soft and unable to take a comfortable posture by himself / herself must be supported and held in a comfortable posture (a posture in which the back is slightly rounded, the hip joint is opened and the knee is bent).
3. You have to hold many times in small increments.
4). Must be held when breastfeeding.
5). When going out, the infant 5 body must be covered with a protective cloth (such as a swaddle).
6). You must hold it while observing the baby's 5 face.
These problems can be dealt with by using the present annular band 1 for the infant 5 in the above-described usage.

First, in the holding posture, the face distance between the two can be maintained sufficiently, so that the user 6 can easily distribute the line of sight to the infant 5, so that the infant 5 can easily observe the face.

In addition, the above-described “compact storage and advantages” enables the baby 5 to be held in small increments to be quickly and easily held and removed. Moreover, since no joining operation is required, it can be easily used by people with disabilities.

In addition, after the baby 5 is stored, the surplus cloth on the foot side at the end of the holding portion can be folded back from the baby 5 to the upper body, so that the baby 5 can be prevented from falling and protected.

In addition, the basic action 2 “adaptive unbiased concave arc shape and tension support” makes it possible to tighten and compress only a part of the body of the stored baby 5, so that there is no uneven concave. Since it is the bottom of the arc shape, the baby 5 with the natural curvature of the back of the infant 5 along the bottom, the hip joint is widened, and the infant 5 with the knee bent can be held in a preferred posture. Therefore, it is easy for the infant 5. In addition, since there is sufficient internal space, depending on the hugging posture, breast feeding can be performed while being stored in the holding unit 3.

In addition, due to the action of tension support and the above-mentioned basic action 1 “equal load of the support part and equal holding of the holding part”, the weight of the infant 5 is applied to the support part 2 almost equally, and the user Since the load is not concentrated on only a part of the shoulder of the baby 6 and the baby 5 is held evenly by the holding part 3, the user 6 can put his hands on the head shoulder and back of the baby 5 from the top of the cloth. Even if the baby 5 is a non-stretchable cloth material, only a heavy part of the body will not sink, and the infant 5 will be held stably, making it easy for both. In addition, the support part 2 is not easily displaced by the above-described inherent action 1 “flexibility and buffering action of the support part”, so that it is easy and safe.

In addition, since the upper body of the user 6 holding the infant 5 turns lightly, the holding unit 3 tilts toward the front of the user 6. Therefore, the center of gravity is close to the user 6 side and is easy to hold. At this time, the user 6 side of the two openings 4 is blocked by the body of the user 6, and the infant 5 is prevented from falling. When the user 6 takes a forward leaning posture, the closed opening 4 can be opened and loosened.

In addition, due to the basic action 5 “distribution of load and load on the contact surface” described above, the holding portion 3 leans against the front surface of the body of the user 6 in the holding posture of the return body, so that the contact surface spreads and the load is distributed. . Also in FIG. 4B, the user 6 has a contact surface on the back of the user 6 that obliquely crosses from the shoulder, and the folded portion of the wave fold is also enlarged as the infant 5 becomes larger and bulky. Since the contact surface increases further, the load is more dispersed. Therefore, this annular band 1 also responds to the distribution of the load burden on the user 6 as the infant 5 becomes larger. Therefore, since the user 6 can receive the weight load of the infant 5 not only on the shoulder on which the support portion 2 is hung, but also on a wide contact surface of the body, the user 6 is highly comfortable.

In addition, the wide cloth surface which extended the holding | maintenance part 3 without trouble can be safely used also for the covering, hanger, and slack of the infant 5, and is convenient.

As described above, the use of the present annular belt 1 solves the above-described problems, and the stored infant 5 is covered over a wide area from the cloth surface of the holding portion 3. Because it is protected, it has a shape that is loosely enclosed, and it has a gentle feeling in appearance and feeling of use, and can store and protect the infant 5 whose neck does not slip easily and safely.

When used for infants with a sitting neck (Fig. 5 (a))
In the figure, the user 6 is holding the back (vertical holding) 7 for an infant (hereinafter referred to as an infant) 7 whose neck is seated. In the vertical back-holding, the user 6 holds the infant 7 from the back, and sits and holds it in the holding part 3 in a posture in which the hip joint is widened and the cross-legged part is held. Support the infant's upper chest with the other hand from the top of the cloth to the waist.

The infant 7 is placed on and held in the holding part 3 by placing the annular band 1 on the shoulder of the user 6 and then expanding the holding part 3 from the convenience of the two openings 4. 7 is placed and stored. When detaching, take the reverse procedure.

When holding the infant 7 with the neck sitting, there are the following problems.
1. You have to hold each time because you can't walk in spite of the increased number of times and the number of times you go out than infancy.
2. It is still breastfeeding and you must hold it when you breastfeed.
3. Height and weight increase, and it becomes heavier and bulky, so it consumes more physical strength.
4). The body movement of the infant 7 becomes active, and it is necessary to hold it carefully so as not to lose the balance in consideration of accident prevention.
That is, these problems can be addressed by using the present annular band 1 for the infant 7 whose neck is seated in the above-described usage.

In other words, the above-mentioned basic action 2 “Adaptive unbiased concave arcuate surface and tension support” allows the inside of the holding portion 3 to afford to tighten only a part of the body of the stored infant 7 or to avoid pressure. The lumbar part of the infant 7 is stably placed on the bottom of the concave arc without any bias, and can move the body freely without any blood circulation problems.

The upper upper body of the back is in contact with and supported by the chest of the user 6, and the upper upper body of the chest is supported and supported by one hand of the user 6. In addition, the folded part of the wave fold that is still open to the holding part 3 near the coupling part K is pushed by the movement of the upper body of the infant 7 and the projection of the upper body, and exhibits a conforming action. Further, this portion is held open so as to be sandwiched from the cloth surface that is stretched up and down by the weight of the infant 7. Therefore, the upper body of the infant 7 that is actively moving is stable and safe and safe even if it moves.

In addition, due to the above-mentioned basic action 1 “equal load of the support part and equal holding of the holding part”, the weight of the infant 7 is applied almost uniformly to the support part 2, so that only a part of the shoulder of the user 6 is loaded. It is easy because there is no concentration.

Further, the infant 7 stored in the holding unit 3 is held almost evenly wherever it sits. Further, because of the above-mentioned inherent action 1 "flexibility and cushioning action of the support part", the support part 2 that hangs on the shoulder is not easily displaced, so that it is easy and safe.

Further, due to the above-mentioned basic action 3 “antagonism and control action against shaking of the holding part”, even if the holding part 3 housing the infant 7 swings, the restoring force works and the center of gravity tends to be determined quickly and quickly returns. Therefore, the infant 7 is stably held even if it swings and is safe.

In addition, the support portion 2 is stable even if the holding portion 3 housing the infant 7 is twisted by the “operation according to twist” of the basic operation 4 described above. Due to this stable support, even if the holding portion 3 housing the infant 7 is twisted, it quickly returns and stabilizes, so that the infant 7 is safe.

In addition, due to the above-mentioned basic action 5 “load distribution on the contact surface”, the weight of the infant 7 is applied not only to the support portion 2 applied to the shoulder but also to the entire contact surface between the user 6 and the holding portion 3. Since the load is also distributed, the load does not concentrate only on a part of the user's 6 body, so the comfort is high. Further, as the infant 7 becomes larger and bulky, the development surface of the holding portion 3 spreads, and the contact surface increases according to the spread, so that the load is more dispersed. That is, since the load burden to the user 6 accompanying the increase in the size of the infant 7 is more dispersed and responded, the comfort can be achieved.

In addition, the above-described “compact storage and advantages” makes it possible to easily and quickly hold the infant 7 whose number of times of going out and holding time has increased. In addition, it is easy and convenient to use the stroller and the annular belt 1 alternately on the staircase or in the vehicle where the stroller cannot be used.

In addition, since the deployment surface of the holding part 3 is sufficiently wide, the upper body of the chest of the user 6 can be covered while the infant 7 is stored, and the external line of sight can be blocked, so that the person's line of sight is not minded when going out. It is convenient because you can relax and breastfeed in the holding section.

In addition, when holding a large, heavy and bulky infant 7 without using anything, it must be held in close contact with force, but the user who receives the weight of the infant 7 by using this annular band 1 Since the upper body of 6 is turned upside down, the holding part 3 is inclined toward the front surface of the user 6 and closely contacts. The user 6 only needs to put his / her hand on the waist of the infant 7 from above the cloth. In this way, the present annular belt 1 itself plays a role of helping the close contact, and it is easy and safe for both.
By using the present annular belt 1 as described above, the above-mentioned problems when holding the infant 7 can be solved, and the user 6 can carry the infant 7 comfortably and completely while preventing exhaustion of physical strength.

Even if the ring length of the present annular band 1 cannot be adjusted, the thing used from the infancy when the body is small can be used advantageously for the infant 7 depending on conditions. That is, the inside of the holding part 3 in the infancy when the neck does not slide has a sufficient space distance for observation and a specific way of holding. When the enlarged infant 7 is placed and stored in the holding portion 3, the space is filled with the bulk of the infant 7. Moreover, since the holding part width is sufficiently wide, it is not necessary to change to the present annular band 1 having a different ring length during the growth depending on conditions, and it can be used continuously. However, this does not apply when changing to a user with a different physique.

Although not shown in the drawing, in addition to the above-mentioned “back vertical holding”, “facing vertical holding” and “facing diagonal holding” can also be performed. In the face-to-face vertical holding, the infant 6 held by the user 6 is stored and held in the holding portion 3 in a posture in which the hip joint spreads like a cross. In the face-to-face slugging, the infant 7 is placed and stored obliquely in the holding portion 3 and is held, supported, and transported by the user 6 diagonally from above the fabric. This is convenient when carrying a sleeping infant 7. In either way of holding, it is common to the action and advantage of the above-described back-side holding (see FIG. 5A).

When used for infants of walking age (FIG. 5B).
In the figure, a walking age infant (hereinafter referred to as an infant) 8 is set to be “holding back on the back by the user 6”. In the vertical sitting on the back, the user 6 holds the infant 8 from the back and sits on the holding part 3 as if sitting on a swing, and places and stores it, and the knees are taken out and dropped. The user 6 pulls the chest of the infant 8 with one hand to support the upper body and holds the other hand from the cloth of the holding unit 3 to the waist.

The method of placing and storing the infant 8 on the holding part 3 is to adjust the holding part width to a depth that allows the infant 8 to sit safely and deeply after spreading the holding part 3 over the shoulder of the user 6. To do. The surplus cloth is folded inward or outward, and the infant 8 is placed and stored from the opening 4 which is convenient. When detaching, take the reverse procedure.

When holding an infant 8 of this walking age, there are the following problems.
1. Even if I can walk, I often succumb to a hug.
2. If you sleep on the go, you must carry it.
3. Height and weight increase, bulky, difficult to hold with one hand or for a long time, use more physical strength.

That is, these problems can be addressed by using the present annular band 1 for the infant 8 in the above-described usage. In addition, it has the same effect as when used for the above-mentioned “infant with a sitting neck”.

In addition, as an advantage when used for walking-age infants 8, even if the infant 8 suddenly cuddles, the above-mentioned "compact storage and advantages" makes it easy to carry this annular belt close to you. I can respond to this hug.

In addition, by the above-mentioned basic action 2 “uneven concave concave arcuate surface and tension support with a compliant holding portion”, the buttocks of the infant 8 whose height and weight are increased can be stably stored and held. In addition, when the upper body that moves actively is pressed against the deployable portion of the holding portion 3 close to the support portion 2, the upper body expands and exhibits a forming action. This part is sandwiched so as to be sandwiched from the cloth surface that is stretched up and down by the weight of the infant 8. The upper body is stably held by this spreading and clamping action and is safe.

In addition, since the back of the infant 8 is in contact with and supported by the chest of the user 6 and the upper body of the user 6 holding the infant 8 is turned over, the infant 8 leans back and further touches the chest of the user 6. Because it adheres, it is easy and safe.

Further, even when the infant 8 sleeps on the go, it is convenient because the infant 8 can be laid down, stored, held and transported in a comfortable posture along the width direction of the holding section 3 having a sufficient width. .

Further, the contact surface between the cloth 6 of the holding portion 3 that accommodates and spreads the bulky infant 8 and the user 6 is further increased by the above-described “load distribution on the contact surface” of the basic action 5, and the weight of the infant 8 is increased. In addition, the above-described basic action 1 “equal load load of the support portion and equal holding of the holding portion” allows the user 6 and the infant 8 to hold and hold comfortably.

Further, because of the above-mentioned inherent action 1 "flexibility and cushioning action of the support part", the support part 2 that hangs on the shoulder is not easily displaced, so that it is easy and safe.

As described above, by using the present annular belt 1 for the infant 8 whose height and weight are increased and bulky, the above-mentioned problem when holding the infant 8 can be solved, and it can be carried safely and safely even for a long time.

Although not shown, “face-to-face sitting vertically” can be performed in the same manner as the above-mentioned “back sitting vertically holding” (see FIG. 5B). In face-to-face sitting, the user 6 holds the infant 8 face-to-face, widens the hip joint of the infant 8, sits on the holding portion 3 and sits and stores it, and puts the legs that have gone out to the user's abdomen. Spread it down and hang it down. The user 6 draws and supports the back of the infant 8 with one hand, and holds the other hand from the cloth of the holding unit 3 to the waist. The reverse procedure is used when detaching.

In particular, in the case of face-to-face sitting and holding in a vertical position, the cloth of the holding part 3 is spread up to the back of the infant 8, so that the infant 8 can be safely held even if it moves behind and turns back. It is also convenient when carrying an infant sleeping on the go.
Even if you hold in this way, you have the same actions and effects as the vertical sitting on the back.

  Next, how to use the annular band 1 for the “arm suspension” will be described with reference to FIGS. In the arm suspender, the annular belt 1 having a predetermined size is used as the arm suspender 1 in order to hold an arm with a disability.

In FIG. 6 (a), a holding unit 3 holds a disabled arm (hereinafter referred to as a disabled arm) 9a of a user (hereinafter referred to as a user) 9 having a disabled arm due to a fracture or paralysis in an appropriate posture. Place, store and hold on.

To use, the support unit 2 is placed on the shoulder of the user 9 on the side of the healthy arm, the holding hand 3 is held with the annular bottom of the holding unit 3 with a normal hand and placed on the elbow tip of the disabled arm 9a. Next, the holding part 3 is expanded so that the forearm and the hand are covered, and the entire obstacle arm 9a is stored at an appropriate position and angle. When removing, remove in the reverse order.

People with disabilities have the following problems on a daily basis.
1. The handicapped arm must be stabilized in place and kept safe.
2. It must be protected from contamination so that the disabled arm does not get wet or dirty.
3. While having a handicapped arm, he must move in functional recovery training, work and daily life.

6 (a), the holding portion 3 faces and is curved due to the structure and the flexibility of the cloth according to the basic action 2 “universal concave arcuate surface with tension of holding portion and tension support” described above in FIG. Therefore, it is possible to hold the elbow and the hand, which are the curved parts of the obstacle arm 9a, and the forearm which is the straight part in a predetermined posture. Further, the cloth surpluses at both ends in the width direction of the holding portion 3 are caught inside by covering the elbow joint part and the hand of the obstacle arm 9a, respectively, so that the user 9 is caught by the obstacle when moving or rehabilitating. You can prevent things.

Further, the obstacle arm 9a accommodated in the holding portion 3 is supported by the above-described basic action 1 “equal load load of holding portion and equal holding of holding portion” and “load distribution to the contact surface” of basic action 5. Evenly held from the part 2. Further, because of the above-mentioned inherent action 1 "flexibility and cushioning action of the support part", the support part 2 that hangs on the shoulder is not easily displaced, so that it is easy and safe.

In addition, the weight of the obstacle arm 9a is not only applied to the support portion 2 almost evenly, but also includes all the contact surfaces with the holding portion 3 (FIG. 6B) extending diagonally on the back of the user 9. Since it is also distributed on the contact surface, the load does not concentrate only on a part of the user's 9 body, which is easy.

Moreover, since the inside of the ring of the two openings 4 and the holding part 3 of the arm suspension 1 of a predetermined size is moderately bulky closed by the slanting upper body of the user 9 and the obstacle arm 9a, it is in close contact and stable. good. Therefore, even if the user 9 shakes, the holding part 3 is difficult to shake, and the harmful arm 9a is stably held.

  In this way, when the handicapped arm 9a is kept at an appropriate fixed position, or when the handicapped arm 1a is used when continuing the rehabilitation exercise, work or daily life while holding the handicapped arm 9a, the arm 9a can be protected and stabilized. We can act comfortably and safely while maintaining safety.

Although not shown, there is also a method of using the arm suspension 1 in a neck-mounted manner.
The use of the “neck-hanging arm suspension” (hereinafter referred to as the neck-hanging type) is also the same as that of the above-described hanging-type arm hanging tool (hereinafter referred to as the “hanging-up type”). In the neck-hanging type, the supporting arm 2 is put on the user's neck, and the holding arm 3 holds the obstacle arm. The procedure for use is in accordance with the above-described racking type. As a characteristic action / effect of this neck-hanging type, since the holding part 3 does not extend over the back of the user, the contact surface is smaller than the tapping type, and the load distribution of the weight of the obstacle arm is small. The burden on the user's neck is large.

Further, the elbow side holding part of the storage arm has a high degree of close contact with the user's trunk and is not easily shaken, but the hand side holding part is separated from the user's trunk and slightly shakes as the user's body shakes. However, the neck-mounted type is simply hung on the neck when in use, and the operation is simpler and easier to use than the tapping type.

Next, how to use the annular band 1 as a “causing tool” will be described with reference to FIGS.
As for the trigger, the trigger 1 having a predetermined size is passed through the upper body of the person 10 who can get up with assistance (hereinafter referred to as a person who wakes up) 10 through the opening 4, and the support part 2 is set in the center of the body front of the person 10. The width direction of the holding part 3 is extended from the waist back to the entire back of the head, and the assistant 11 grips the support part 2 to cause it (FIG. 7A).

There are the following problems when waking up people who can get up with assistance.
1. When getting up with assistance, the upper body cannot be maintained in a well-balanced state due to lack of power.
2. It is difficult for the caregiver to know where to support the body of the person who wants to get up.
3. When assisting, it is difficult for the assistant to determine where to support.
4). If you wake up suddenly, the condition of the person who was sleeping is likely to change, so the caregiver must wake up while observing the face of the person being assisted.

In FIG. 7 (b), the person who occurs on the compliant concave arc surface of the holding portion 3 by the above-mentioned basic action 2 "uneven concave concave arc surface and tension support of the holding portion". The upper body of 10 is stably stored and held and is comfortable.

In addition, due to the above-described basic action 1 “equal load load of the support portion and equal holding of the holding portion”, the weight load of the person 10 that occurs is applied to the support portion 2 almost evenly. At the same time, since the holding part 3 storing the upper body is also held almost evenly from the support part 2, the upper body of the person 10 who gets up is stably held and can be safely caused.

Further, the assistant 11 grasps the surface of the support part 2 to which an equal load is applied in accordance with the palm, and pulls the weight through the hand grasping the support part 2 according to the force of the person 10 who wants to get up. By doing this, the load does not concentrate on only a part of the palm and can be easily and comfortably caused.

By using this trigger as described above, it is easy to determine the standing position of the caregiver for face-to-face use, and it causes the upper body to be easily and safely no matter who assists while observing the person's face. Can do.

Although not shown in the drawings, how to use the annular band 1 for a “size case” of a predetermined size for holding an article will be described.
In a container of a predetermined size, a support part is placed on the shoulder of a user, an armrest, and a hand-held type to place, hold, and carry articles such as baggage and pets (small animals) on the holding part. .

The usage procedure is to either hang the support part on the user's shoulder or on the arm first, hold it to the hand, and store the article in the holding part, or support the supporting part after storing it in the holding part. This is how it works. When removing, follow the reverse procedure.

There are the following problems when carrying baggage.
1. Heavy and bulky baggage places a heavy burden on the hands and shoulders.
2. Baggage hung on shoulders and arms is difficult to hold due to the shoulders and arms partially stuck or misaligned.

Due to the above-mentioned basic action 2 “uneven concave concave arcuate surface and tension support of the holding part”, the holding part 3 that forms a generous unbiased concave arcuate surface has a heavy and bulky baggage and pet. Etc. can be stored and held stably.

Also, the load of the weight of the article held by the above-described basic action 1 “equal load of the support part and equal holding of the holding part” and “flexibility and buffering action of the support part” of the inherent action 1 is applied to the support part. Because it is applied almost evenly, the load does not concentrate or shift only on the shoulders and hands that support the support.

Further, since the holding portion is held evenly from the support portion, when a non-stretchable material is used, only a heavy portion of the article stored in the holding portion is held evenly and stably without sinking.

As described above, by using the present annular belt 1 as a container, goods (baggage) can be stably stored, held and transported easily and safely. Moreover, since it is easy to carry a genuine case with the above-mentioned "compact storage and advantages", it can be easily used at any time and is convenient.

Next, different modes for carrying out the present invention shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 will be described. In the description of the different embodiments for carrying out the present invention, the same components as those in the first embodiment for carrying out the present invention are referred to and referred to by the same reference numerals, and overlapping drawings and description. Is omitted.

In the second embodiment for carrying out the present invention shown in FIG. 8, the main difference from the first embodiment for carrying out the present invention is the difference in the production order of the production process. 8) is a manufacturing process (FIGS. 8A to 8B) according to the second embodiment in which the same drawings as those in the first embodiment are omitted.
Hereinafter, the same configuration diagram as that of the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be referred to and the manufacturing process will be described with reference to the drawings.
First, the pre-sewing annular band fabric is a widened cloth having the same shape as that shown in FIG. 2 (a), and is composed of long sides G and I (long side is omitted in the figure) and short sides F and H. The short widths F and H form the width of the holding portion 3 after the completion of the present annular belt 1, and the long lengths G and I are cloths forming both sides of the opening 4 (see FIG. 1A). (See FIG. 2 (a)). Along the longitudinal direction of the annular band cloth before sewing (see FIG. 2A), a predetermined uniform width W (short F, 1 / N of the H width (N is a natural number of 2 or more). After completion, it is alternately folded into a mountain fold and a valley fold at the width of the support portion 2, and the plurality of folds are closely overlapped with each other, and a long edge and a long edge G, a valley fold line T ₁ , T ₂ are aligned, and the mountain fold lines Y ₁ and Y ₂ , and the longitudinal ends I are the overlapping long strips 12, and the long strips 12 are bent into a horseshoe shape in the process of overlapping the longitudinal ends of the long strips 12. And a joint portion K / K in which both ends of the belt 13 and the horseshoe-shaped belt 13 are overlapped and fixed with a predetermined width L, and an overlapping portion L having the most overlap thickness between the joint portions K and K is sewn. 2 and integrated with the holding part 3 to complete the annular band 1, and when the holding part 3 is unfolded, this annular band 1 (FIG. 1A) The difference between the first embodiment of the annular band 1 (see FIGS. 1A and 1B) and the second embodiment of the annular band 1 FIG. The difference is only the cloth overlap appearance of the support portion 2 because the cloth overlap is different.Even the annular band 1 formed in this way has the same effect as the best mode for carrying out the present invention. Is obtained.

The third embodiment for carrying out the present invention shown in FIG. 9 is mainly different from the best first and second embodiments for carrying out the present invention in that the production sequence of the production process and a part of the material are different. FIG. 9 is a manufacturing process (FIGS. 9A and 9B) of the third embodiment in which the drawings overlapping with the manufacturing processes of the first and second embodiments are omitted.
In the following, the same components as those of the first and second embodiments for carrying out the present invention are referred to and referred to by the same reference numerals, and duplicated drawings and descriptions are omitted, and manufactured according to the drawings. Explain the process.
First, the pre-sewing annular band fabric to be prepared is the same as the first and second embodiments for carrying out the present invention (see FIG. 2A). From the next time, the same procedure as in the production of the second embodiment for implementation (FIGS. 8A and 8B) and the horseshoe-shaped band 13 (see FIG. 8B) are created.
FIG. 9A shows a support member 14 that is coupled to both longitudinal ends of a horseshoe-shaped band 13 (see FIG. 8B) and serves as a support portion. A support member 14 is joined to both ends of the horseshoe-shaped band 13 (see FIG. 8B) for a proper purpose by a stitching method, an adhesive method, and the like, and the support portion 2 having the support member 14 and the holding portion 3 are integrated. This annular band 1 is completed and formed, and when the holding portion 3 is developed, it has substantially the same appearance as FIG. The difference between the annular band of the third form and the annular band 1 of the first and second forms is only the difference in the appearance of the support part 2 because the constituent material of the support part 2 is different. Even with the annular belt 1 formed in this way, the same effects as those of the first embodiment for carrying out the present invention can be obtained.

Preferred materials, shapes, etc. of each member are shown below. The material of the annular band 1 can be changed depending on the purpose of use. In any case, the following basic conditions are required for the support portion, the holding portion, and the support member because they are mainly used in close contact with humans.

Light and strong. It is a natural material with excellent breathability and hygroscopicity, easy to wash, soft and soft to the touch, flexible and non-slip fabric (because it does not slip tightly), but if it is similar material, it is synthesized Even fibers are suitable.

Based on the above basic conditions, it is a material that takes advantage of the characteristics and advantages of moisture retention, water repellency, light emission, flame retardancy, light shielding, etc., for summer, winter, rainy weather, night, disaster evacuation, The present annular band 1 can be manufactured according to the purpose of ceremonial use.

Also, because the front and back forms are almost the same due to the "production process" described above, using a material that can be used on both front and back makes this ring belt 1 for both sides, so that the trouble of discriminating the front and back during use can be saved. Especially convenient.

In addition, because the structure is simple, even people without special sewing techniques can make them by hand. It is also possible to make a familiar recyclable cloth material that meets the basic conditions. Similarly, when the annular band 1 is no longer needed, it can be sewn and returned to one piece of cloth, which can be further recycled and is suitable for resource utilization.

The reference size of each part is described below for reference.
Holding part width (short F / H) 110cm
Support part width approximately 10cm
Number of folding stages: 11 stages Annular belt length: approx. 140cm

The basic shape of the support member is a rectangular shape such as a rectangle, but as a deformation, a trapezoidal shape that is a substantially rectangular shape, a drum shape with a wide central portion, a drum shape with a narrow central portion, etc. The shape can also depend on the application. The material is thick and flexible (cloth can be stacked, leather, synthetic leather, chemical fiber). The holding member is a mesh that allows the inside of the holding part to be seen through, a lace material, a double gauze material that feels good on the skin, and a breathable waterproof material (natural, synthetic, Gore-Tex). The shape of the coupling member is a coupling member shape corresponding to the deformed shape of the support portion. The joining method is performed by an appropriate method such as a suturing method or an adhesion method.
