Description

本発明は、施術器具に関する。 The present invention relates to surgical instruments.

従来、生体に対して対象部位を押す、叩く等の施術を行う施術器具がある。例えば、ツボ等を押圧する押圧マッサージ器具(特許文献1を参照)が提案されている。 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there are treatment instruments for performing treatment such as pressing or hitting a target site on a living body. For example, there has been proposed a pressure massage device that presses pressure points and the like (see Patent Document 1).

登録実用新案第3026864号公報Registered Utility Model No. 3026864

一方、近年、対象部位を揺らす、撫でる等することで、リンパ液の流れを改善したり、皮膚やファシア(線維性の立体網目状組織)をケアーしたりすることが行われている。しかし、上記押圧マッサージ器具は、ツボや経路をピンポイント的に押圧するものであり、このような施術には向いていない。 On the other hand, in recent years, it has been practiced to improve the flow of lymph fluid and to care for the skin and fascia (fibrous three-dimensional mesh tissue) by shaking or stroking the target site. However, the above-mentioned pressure massage device applies pinpoint pressure to acupuncture points and pathways, and is not suitable for such treatment.

また、施術者の手により対象部位をやさしく撫でたり、振動が深部に伝わるように揺らしたり、叩いたりする施術が行われている。例えば、対象部位に施術者の一方の手を載せ、その上に他方の手を重ねて揺らす施術や、施術者の一方の手を対象部位に載せ、他方の手で一方の手を叩く施術が行われている。このような施術は、施術者が異性である場合は、不便であり、手による直接接触を避けたい場合がある。セルフケアを行うことが考えられるが、自身の手が届く範囲には限界がある。 In addition, treatment is performed by gently stroking the target site with the hand of the practitioner, shaking it so that the vibration is transmitted to the deep part, or hitting it. For example, one of the practitioner's hands is placed on the target area and the other hand is placed on top of it and shaken, and one of the practitioner's hands is placed on the target area and the other hand is clapped. It is done. Such procedures are inconvenient for practitioners of the opposite sex who may wish to avoid direct contact with their hands. Self-care can be considered, but there are limits to what one can reach.

本発明は、上記課題の少なくとも一つを解決するためのもので、揺らす、撫でる、叩く等の施術を気軽に効率よく行うことができる施術器具を提供することを目的とする。 It is an object of the present invention to solve at least one of the above problems, and to provide a treatment instrument that allows easy and efficient treatment such as rocking, stroking, and tapping.

<First embodiment>
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of a surgical instrument according to the first embodiment, and is (a) a front view and (b) a cross-sectional view. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing another example. In FIG. 1, X indicates the width direction (horizontal direction, left-right direction), Y indicates the longitudinal direction (longitudinal direction, front-back direction), Z indicates the thickness direction (depth direction, up-down direction) (each figure below) same in). The treatment instrument 1 is a treatment instrument for performing treatment such as stroking, shaking, and hitting a target site on a living body.

施術器具1は、対象部位と接触して施術を行う施術部10と、施術部10を操作するハンドル部40とを有する。施術部10は、対象部位と接触して施術を行う一以上の指部20を有する。一例として、ここでは一の指部20を有する例を説明する。 The treatment instrument 1 has a treatment section 10 for performing treatment by contacting a target site, and a handle section 40 for operating the treatment section 10 . The treatment unit 10 has one or more finger parts 20 that perform treatment in contact with the target site. As an example, an example having one finger portion 20 will be described here.

指部20は、棒状に形成され、芯部22と、柔軟性を有し、芯部22の外周の少なくとも一部を覆う作用部21とを含む。作用部21は、固着部23により芯部22に固着される。固着部23は、熱溶着によるものでもよいし、接着剤や粘着剤などが用いられてもよい。例えば、芯部22をプラスチック樹脂で成型し、周囲にエラストマー樹脂やゴム材を作用部21として二重成型し固着したりしても良い。 The finger portion 20 is formed in a bar shape and includes a core portion 22 and an action portion 21 having flexibility and covering at least a portion of the outer periphery of the core portion 22 . The acting portion 21 is fixed to the core portion 22 by the fixing portion 23 . The fixed portion 23 may be formed by thermal welding, or may be formed by using an adhesive or a pressure-sensitive adhesive. For example, the core portion 22 may be molded from a plastic resin, and an elastomer resin or rubber material may be double-molded and fixed as the action portion 21 around the core portion 22 .

作用部21は、一例として、芯部22の一部(例えば外周の1/2~2/3)を覆うように形成される。作用部21は、図1(b)に示すように、例えば、断面視略U字形状に形成され、対象部位と接触する接触面が凸曲面である。 As an example, the acting portion 21 is formed so as to cover a portion of the core portion 22 (for example, 1/2 to 2/3 of the outer circumference). As shown in FIG. 1(b), the action part 21 is formed in, for example, a substantially U-shaped cross section, and the contact surface that contacts the target site is a convex curved surface.

作用部21は、一例として、図2に示すように、芯部22の外周を全周覆うように形成される。作用部21は、例えば、図2(a)に示すように、4つの面を有し、接触面が凸曲面である。作用部21は、例えば、図2(b)に示すように、断面視円形状に形成され、均一な厚みを有し、芯部22と同心状である。作用部21は、例えば、図2(c)に示すように、断面視円形状に形成され、厚みに変化があり、芯部22とは中心がずれている。 As an example, the acting portion 21 is formed so as to cover the entire outer periphery of the core portion 22 as shown in FIG. For example, as shown in FIG. 2(a), the acting portion 21 has four surfaces, and the contact surfaces are convex curved surfaces. For example, as shown in FIG. 2B, the acting portion 21 is formed in a circular cross-sectional shape, has a uniform thickness, and is concentric with the core portion 22 . For example, as shown in FIG. 2C, the acting portion 21 is formed in a circular cross-sectional shape, has a varying thickness, and is displaced from the center of the core portion 22 .

作用部21は、柔軟性を有する素材により形成され、例えば、いわゆるシリコーン、ウレタン、エラストマーまたはゴム等の素材が用いられる。発泡材やジェル状の素材、人口皮革等が用いられてもよい。作用部21に用いられる素材の硬度は、シリコーンの場合、例えば5°~35°、好ましくは8°~30°、より好ましくは10°~26°である。言い換えれば、作用部21は、好ましくは、30°以下の低硬度に形成される。他の素材の場合も、同様な硬度を有するように形成されてもよい。なお、素材に応じて硬度範囲を適宜変えてもよい。 The acting portion 21 is made of a flexible material, such as so-called silicone, urethane, elastomer, or rubber. A foam material, a gel-like material, artificial leather, or the like may be used. In the case of silicone, the hardness of the material used for the action portion 21 is, for example, 5° to 35°, preferably 8° to 30°, more preferably 10° to 26°. In other words, the action portion 21 is preferably formed with a low hardness of 30° or less. Other materials may be formed to have similar hardness. Note that the hardness range may be appropriately changed according to the material.

ここで、硬度とは、測定機が簡便であることから一般に広く普及している「デュロメータ硬さ」のことである。「デュロメータ硬さ」は、測定する対象の表面に鋭利ではない針(押針、インデンタ)を押し込んで、その変形量を測定し数値化する方法であり、針を押し込む力としてスプリングを用いている。JIS K 6253-3に規格され、デュロメータには、タイプA、タイプD、タイプE及びタイプAMがあり、その選択は、次による。
-タイプDデュロメータで硬さが20未満の値を示す場合は,タイプAを用いる。
-タイプAデュロメータで硬さが20未満の値を示す場合は,タイプEを用いる。
-タイプAデュロメータで硬さが90を超える値を示す場合は,タイプDを用いる。
本願明細書および特許請求の範囲における硬度は、上記で選択されたタイプのデュロメータで測定される値である。
Here, the hardness refers to "durometer hardness" which is widely used because the measuring instrument is simple and easy to use. "Durometer hardness" is a method in which a non-sharp needle (push needle, indenter) is pushed into the surface of the object to be measured, and the amount of deformation is measured and quantified, and a spring is used as the force to push the needle. . Standardized in JIS K 6253-3, durometers include type A, type D, type E and type AM, and the selection is as follows.
- If the type D durometer gives a hardness value of less than 20, use type A.
- if the type A durometer gives a hardness value less than 20, use type E;
- If the type A durometer shows a hardness value greater than 90, use type D.
Hardness in the specification and claims herein is a value measured in durometers of the type selected above.

芯部22は、硬性を有し、一例として、図示のように断面が円形の棒状に形成される。芯部22は、施術器具1の長手方向に延びて、ハンドル部40と接続する。芯部22は、金属(例えば鉄、銅、金、銀、アルミニウム、ステンレス、チタン、マグネシウム、タングステン、またはこれらの合金)、鉱石、又はポリプロピレン、ナイロン、ABS等の樹脂等により形成される。 The core part 22 has hardness, and as an example, is formed in a bar shape with a circular cross section as shown in the drawing. The core portion 22 extends in the longitudinal direction of the surgical instrument 1 and connects with the handle portion 40 . The core 22 is made of metal (for example, iron, copper, gold, silver, aluminum, stainless steel, titanium, magnesium, tungsten, or alloys thereof), ore, or resin such as polypropylene, nylon, ABS, or the like.

施術部10は、対象部位に適度な荷重がかかるように、例えば10g~600g、好ましくは20g~500g、より好ましくは30g~400gとなるように構成される。後述のように、複数の指部20を有する場合、一の指部20は、例えば10g~300g、好ましくは10g~250g、より好ましくは10g~200gである。 The treatment section 10 is configured to have a weight of, for example, 10 g to 600 g, preferably 20 g to 500 g, more preferably 30 g to 400 g, so that an appropriate load is applied to the target site. As will be described later, when having a plurality of fingers 20, one finger 20 is, for example, 10g to 300g, preferably 10g to 250g, more preferably 10g to 200g.

また、施術の対象部位によって施術時の全体の荷重の掛かる量を設定することもできる。例えば、皮膚表面のファシアケアーは10gから400g、筋肉や腱へのアプローチには50gから1kg、骨格(肋骨や手足の指など)系へのアプローチには200gから1.5kg、骨格(背骨や手足など)系のアプローチには400gから3kgとする。 In addition, it is also possible to set the amount of the entire load applied during the treatment depending on the target part of the treatment. For example, 10g to 400g for fascia care on the skin surface, 50g to 1kg for muscles and tendons, 200g to 1.5kg for skeletal (ribs, fingers, toes, etc.), skeletal (backbone, limbs, etc.) ) from 400 g to 3 kg for system approaches.

施術器具1は、作用部21が対象部位との密着性が高く、対象部位を揺らす施術を行いやすい。施術の際は、手で対象部位を揺らすように、指部20を対象部位に載せた状態でハンドル部40を左右又は前後に軽く振る。そうすると、作用部21と密着している対象部位が作用部21とともに動いて揺らされる。このとき、指部20の自重により対象部位に適度な圧力がかかり、揺らしやすくなる。 In the treatment instrument 1, the action part 21 has high adhesion to the target site, and it is easy to perform treatment by shaking the target site. During treatment, the handle part 40 is lightly shaken left and right or back and forth with the finger part 20 placed on the target part so as to shake the target part by hand. Then, the target portion in close contact with the action portion 21 is moved and shaken together with the action portion 21 . At this time, an appropriate pressure is applied to the target part by the weight of the finger part 20, and it becomes easy to rock.

また、施術器具1は、指部20の自重が対象部位に全部かからないように指部20を少し持ち上げるようにし、ハンドル部40を左右又は前後に移動させて、指部20を対象部位上で左右または前後に滑り移動させて対象部位を撫でる施術を行うことができる。 In addition, in the surgical instrument 1, the fingers 20 are lifted slightly so that the weight of the fingers 20 is not entirely applied to the target site, and the handle 40 is moved left and right or back and forth to move the fingers 20 left and right on the target site. Alternatively, it is possible to perform a treatment by stroking the target site by sliding it back and forth.

また、施術器具1は、対象部位を指部20で叩いて施術を行うことができる。作用部21が柔軟性を有するため、衝撃を減らしながらも、振動を深部に伝えることができる。 Moreover, the surgical instrument 1 can perform a surgical operation by tapping the target site with the fingers 20 . Since the action part 21 has flexibility, it is possible to transmit the vibration to the deep part while reducing the impact.

このように、施術器具1は、施術部10を柔軟性を備えるように構成し、人間の手ないし指を模して、効率よく施術を行うことができる。また、施術器具1は、施術者が異性である場合も行いやすく、セルフケアも行いやすい。 In this manner, the treatment instrument 1 has the treatment section 10 configured to be flexible, mimics a human hand or fingers, and can perform treatment efficiently. In addition, the treatment instrument 1 is easy to perform even when the operator is of the opposite sex, and self-care is also easy to perform.

施術器具1は、作用部21の表面に凹凸模様が設けられてもよい。より具体的には、作用部21の表面の全部または一部に細かな凹凸模様、例えば円形や半円形、渦巻状の模様、またはこれらを組み合わせた模様が設けられてもよい。凹凸の深さは、例えば、0.1mm~1mm、好ましくは0.2mm~1mmである。模様を設けることで、対象部位との密着性(吸着性)を高めることができる。 The treatment instrument 1 may be provided with an uneven pattern on the surface of the action portion 21 . More specifically, all or part of the surface of the action portion 21 may be provided with a fine uneven pattern, such as a circular, semicircular, or spiral pattern, or a combination of these patterns. The depth of the unevenness is, for example, 0.1 mm to 1 mm, preferably 0.2 mm to 1 mm. By providing the pattern, it is possible to enhance the adhesion (adsorption) to the target site.

施術器具1は、作用部21を覆ってこれを保護する表面層ないし表皮部を有してもよい。このような表面層ないし表皮部は、作用部21と同じ素材で形成されてもよいし、異なる素材が用いられてもよい。硬度のみが異なる素材が用いられてもよい。表面層ないし表皮部の形成には、重ね成型や塗布、巻き付けなどの手法が用いられてもよい。また、表面層ないし表皮部には、上記のような凹凸模様が設けられてもよい。 The treatment instrument 1 may have a surface layer or epidermis that covers and protects the action portion 21 . Such a surface layer or epidermis may be made of the same material as the action portion 21, or may be made of a different material. Materials that differ only in hardness may be used. Techniques such as overmolding, coating, and winding may be used to form the surface layer or skin portion. Further, the surface layer or skin portion may be provided with the uneven pattern as described above.

施術器具1は、作用部21の全部が芯部22に固着されてよいし、一部のみが固着されてもよい。例えば、芯部22の両側付近のみが固着されていることで、施術時に中間付近のたるみがより皮膚との密着性を高めるようにしてもよい。 As for the surgical instrument 1, the whole action part 21 may adhere to the core part 22, and only one part may adhere. For example, only the vicinity of both sides of the core part 22 may be fixed, so that the slack in the vicinity of the middle may enhance the adhesion to the skin during treatment.

<第2実施形態>
図3は第2実施形態に係る施術器具の一例を示す図で、(a)正面図、(b)側面図である。図4はその使用状態を説明するための図である。以下では、主として上記実施形態と異なる点を説明する。本実施形態の施術部10は、複数の指部を有し、接続部30を介してハンドル部40と接続する。なお、以下では5つの指部の例を説明するが、指部を22~4本有してもよいし、6本以上有してもよい。
<Second embodiment>
FIG. 3 is a view showing an example of the surgical instrument according to the second embodiment, (a) a front view and (b) a side view. FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining how it is used. Differences from the above embodiment will be mainly described below. The treatment section 10 of this embodiment has a plurality of finger sections and is connected to the handle section 40 via the connection section 30 . An example of five fingers will be described below, but the number of fingers may be 22 to 4, or may be 6 or more.

施術部10は、一例として、図示のように、指部20a、指部20b、指部20c、指部20d及び指部20eの5つの指部を有する。これらの指部は、長手方向に延在し、隣同士の間には所定の隙間が設けられている。5つの指部は、指連結部により並列して連結され、一体となっている。ここでは、第1指連結部13及び第2指連結部14の2つの連結部が5つの指部を串状に挿通して連結している。より具体的には、第2指連結部14が各指部の後方寄りの部分を挿通し、第1指連結部13が第2指連結部14よりもやや前方で各指部を挿通して、5つの指部を連結している。 As an example, the treatment section 10 has five fingers, finger 20a, finger 20b, finger 20c, finger 20d, and finger 20e, as shown. These fingers extend longitudinally with a predetermined gap between them. The five finger parts are connected in parallel by the finger connecting part and are integrated. Here, two connecting portions, the first finger connecting portion 13 and the second finger connecting portion 14, are connected by inserting five finger portions in a skewed manner. More specifically, the second finger connecting portion 14 is inserted through the rear portion of each finger, and the first finger connecting portion 13 is inserted through each finger slightly forward of the second finger connecting portion 14. , connecting five fingers.

接続部30は、施術部10と接続する前段部31と、前段部31より太い中段部32と、中段部32より太い後段部33とを有する。これらは、同じ素材で構成されてもよいし、異なる素材で構成されてもよい。好ましくは、前段部31は可撓性を有し、撓る。中段部32も可撓性を有し撓るように構成されてもよい。 The connection part 30 has a front stage part 31 connected to the treatment part 10 , a middle stage part 32 thicker than the front stage part 31 , and a rear stage part 33 thicker than the middle stage part 32 . These may be made of the same material or may be made of different materials. Preferably, the front section 31 is flexible and bends. The middle section 32 may also be configured to have flexibility and bend.

なお、図示の施術器具1は、前段部31から後段部33まで、更にはハンドル部40まで一続き状に棒状に構成されているが、並列の2本以上の棒状に構成されてもよいし、扁平な板状に構成されてもよい。また、図示では直線状に延びているが、湾曲形状、コの字形状等の形状に曲がり、施術の際に施術部10よりも上方に位置するように施術部10との間に段差が形成されてもよい。また、直線状の状態から、他の形状に変更できるようになってもよい。 The illustrated surgical instrument 1 is configured in a rod shape continuously from the front stage portion 31 to the rear stage portion 33 and further to the handle portion 40. However, it may be configured in parallel two or more rod shapes. , may be configured in a flat plate shape. In addition, although it extends linearly in the drawing, it bends into a curved shape, a U-shape, or the like, and a step is formed between the treatment section 10 and the treatment section 10 so that it is positioned above the treatment section 10 during treatment. may be Also, the linear state may be changed to another shape.

図4では、主に皮膚表面を揺らす例、例えば、皮膚や筋膜周辺の血液やリンパの流れを促進するためのファシアケアーの例を示す。図4の(1)で示すように、施術部10を対象部位O(具体的には皮膚)上に載せると、その重さで対象部位Oが凹む。より具体的には、対象部位Oは、指部の下方部分が凹み、その両側が凸出する。なお、ここでは、便宜上、指部20b、指部20c、指部20dのみを示し、他の部分は省略している。 FIG. 4 shows an example of mainly shaking the skin surface, for example, fascia care for promoting the flow of blood and lymph around the skin and fascia. As shown in (1) of FIG. 4, when the treatment section 10 is placed on the target site O (specifically, the skin), the target site O is depressed due to its weight. More specifically, the target portion O is recessed at the lower portion of the finger portion and protrudes on both sides thereof. For convenience, only the finger portions 20b, 20c, and 20d are shown here, and other portions are omitted.

図4の(2)で示すように、施術部10が矢印方向に動くと、各指部と密着している対象部位Oは図中の矢印方向(左方向)に徐々に引かれる。また、各指部の作用部は、柔軟性を有するため変形して、移動方向の前方部分が凹み(肉薄になり)、後方部分が凸出する(肉厚になる)。また、作用部の応力(図示の矢印)により、対象部位Oを元の状態に戻そうとする。この力により、対象部位Oに対し左方向に引く力が強まるが、作用部の柔軟性による緩やかな(優しい)、引く力(横方向に加わる圧力)が加わる(起きる)。また、この位置から、施術部10が図中の右方向に移動するときには、今までの左方向に引く力が徐々に弱まり、図4(1)の状態で引く力が解消した状態に戻る。この過程においても、作用部の柔軟性による穏やかな、引く力の解消が起きる。次に施術部が図中の右方向に動くことで図4(3)の状態に移行する。図4の(3)で示すように、反対方向に動く場合も同様に作用部の柔軟性による穏やかな力が変化が起きる。このように、ハンドル部を操作する人の動きにあまり影響されずに穏やかな力が対象部位に加わることで体に緊張を与えず施術することが出来る。 As shown in (2) of FIG. 4, when the treatment section 10 moves in the direction of the arrow, the target site O in close contact with each finger is gradually pulled in the direction of the arrow (leftward) in the figure. Also, since the acting portion of each finger has flexibility, it is deformed so that the forward portion in the moving direction is recessed (thinner) and the rearward portion is protruded (thickened). In addition, the stress of the acting portion (the arrow in the drawing) attempts to restore the target portion O to its original state. This force increases the leftward pulling force with respect to the target site O, but a gentle (gentle) pulling force (horizontal direction pressure) is applied (occurred) due to the flexibility of the action portion. When the treatment unit 10 moves rightward in the figure from this position, the leftward pulling force is gradually weakened, and the pulling force returns to the state shown in FIG. 4(1). Also in this process, a gentle, pulling force cancellation occurs due to the flexibility of the working part. Next, the treatment section moves to the right in the drawing, thereby shifting to the state shown in FIG. 4(3). As shown in (3) of FIG. 4, even when moving in the opposite direction, a gentle force change occurs due to the flexibility of the acting portion. In this manner, a gentle force is applied to the target site without being greatly affected by the movement of the person who operates the handle, so that the treatment can be performed without giving tension to the body.

また、この時に施術部10の振れ幅は、対象部位上を施術部10が滑らない範囲内に押えるほうが、施術効果が高まる。このため、施術部10の振れ幅を制限ないし調整する機構を設けても良い。振れ幅は、5mmから60mm、好ましくは5mmから50mm、より好ましくは5mmから40mmである。 Further, at this time, the treatment effect is enhanced by holding the swing width of the treatment section 10 within a range in which the treatment section 10 does not slip on the target site. Therefore, a mechanism for limiting or adjusting the amplitude of the treatment section 10 may be provided. The amplitude is 5 mm to 60 mm, preferably 5 mm to 50 mm, more preferably 5 mm to 40 mm.

なお、人間の体には、強い力や急激な圧力に対し、皮膚や筋肉などが危険を察知し拘縮する仕組みがあると言われている。その極端な一例としてむち打ち症が挙げられている。筋線維に過大な負荷がかかると筋小胞体が傷害され、活動電位が出なくても筋小胞体からカルシウムイオンが筋漿に出ていくと言われている。その結果、太いフィラメントの間に細いフィラメントが滑り込んで、筋線維が短縮し、このとき活動電位が出ないので、収縮と呼ばず拘縮と称されている。拘縮が発生すると、血流が障害され、これに拘縮によるエネルギー消費の増大が加わって代謝産物が蓄積し、ブラジキニンが産出されて痛みを生じると言われている。このときプロスタグランジンも産出され、ブラジキニンの発痛作用が増加し、筋肉が痛みの発生源となると、反射性筋収縮や血管収縮が加わって痛みを強め、痛みの悪循環ができ上がると言われている。 It is said that the human body has a mechanism in which the skin and muscles detect danger and contract when strong force or sudden pressure is applied. An extreme example is whiplash. It is said that the sarcoplasmic reticulum is damaged when an excessive load is applied to the muscle fibers, and calcium ions are released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum to the sarcoplasm even if no action potential is generated. As a result, the thin filaments slip between the thick filaments, shortening the muscle fibers, and at this time action potentials do not occur, so they are called contractures, not contractions. It is said that when contracture occurs, blood flow is disturbed, and in addition to this, energy consumption increases due to contracture, metabolites accumulate, and bradykinin is produced, causing pain. At this time, prostaglandins are also produced, and the pain-producing action of bradykinin increases. When muscles become the source of pain, reflex muscle contraction and vasoconstriction are added to intensify pain, and it is said that a vicious circle of pain is created. there is

このように、施術器具1は、ハンドル部を左右に所定幅で振る操作をすることで、施術部が複数の指部の延在方向と直交する方向に動く(振れる)ようになり、複数の指部で対象部位Oを優しく押圧し揺らす施術を行うことができる。 As described above, the treatment instrument 1 moves (swings) in a direction orthogonal to the extending direction of the plurality of fingers by swinging the handle portion left and right by a predetermined width. A treatment can be performed by gently pressing and shaking the target site O with the fingers.

なお、作用部が硬いと、対象部位Oと馴染まず、対象部位Oが皺寄せ状態となる、対象部位O上で滑る等のことが生じて、施術効果が損なわれる。一方、柔軟性を有する素材のみで構成され、硬い芯部を有しない場合は、圧力が均一になりにくく、指部を思うように動かしにくくなる。 If the action portion is hard, it will not fit well with the target site O, causing the target site O to wrinkle, slipping on the target site O, and the like, thereby impairing the effect of the treatment. On the other hand, if it is composed only of a flexible material and does not have a hard core, it is difficult to apply a uniform pressure, making it difficult to move the fingers as desired.

<Third Embodiment>
FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of a surgical instrument according to the third embodiment, and is (a) a front view and (b) a side view. FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining the finger portion. 7A and 7B are diagrams for explaining the treatment part, (a) initial state, (b) plan view of target site and contact state, (c) side view of target site and contact state, (e) target site and It is a bottom view of a contact state. Differences from the above embodiment will be mainly described below. In the surgical instrument 1 of this embodiment, the fingers of the surgical section 10 have joints.

施術部10は、5つの指部を有し、それぞれの指部は、芯部が複数の芯部材を有し、芯部材同士が関節部により可動に接続される。左右方向の両側の第1指部20aと第5指部20eは略線対称に形成され、ここでは第1指部20aを例に説明する。一例として、第1指部20aは、芯部22aが第1芯部材221a、第2芯部材222a及び第3芯部材223aの3つの棒状の芯部材を有し、第1芯部材221a及び第2芯部材222aが第1関節部により可動に接続され、第2芯部材222a及び第3芯部材223aが第2関節部により可動に接続される。好ましくは、第3芯部材223aは、先端部近辺で横方向内側(第2指部20b側)に鈍角に屈曲し、基端部近辺で長手方向に屈曲して折り返されるような形状である。なお、第5指部20eは、第1指部20aより若干長く形成されてもよい。 The treatment section 10 has five fingers, each finger has a plurality of core members, and the core members are movably connected to each other by joints. The first finger portion 20a and the fifth finger portion 20e on both sides in the left-right direction are formed substantially line symmetrically, and here, the first finger portion 20a will be described as an example. As an example, in the first finger portion 20a, the core portion 22a has three rod-shaped core members, namely, a first core member 221a, a second core member 222a and a third core member 223a. The core member 222a is movably connected by a first joint, and the second core member 222a and the third core member 223a are movably connected by a second joint. Preferably, the third core member 223a is bent laterally inward (toward the second finger portion 20b) at an obtuse angle in the vicinity of the distal end, and is bent in the longitudinal direction in the vicinity of the proximal end and folded back. The fifth finger portion 20e may be formed slightly longer than the first finger portion 20a.

好ましくは、各指部の作用部には芯部の関節部と対応する凹状の節部が設けられる。各指部は、少なくとも第1芯部材と第2芯部材との間の第1関節部と対応する節部を有する。第5指部20eを例に説明すると、一例として、第5指部20eは、第1関節部と対応して、径方向内側に凹む凹状の節部2101eを有する。指部に節部を設けることで、関節部がより動きやすくなる。 Preferably, the working portion of each finger is provided with a concave knuckle corresponding to the articulation of the core. Each finger has at least a first articulated portion and a corresponding knuckle portion between the first core member and the second core member. Taking the fifth finger portion 20e as an example, as an example, the fifth finger portion 20e has a concave joint portion 2101e that is concave inward in the radial direction corresponding to the first joint portion. By providing the knuckles on the fingers, the joints can be moved more easily.

中間の第2指部20b、第3指部20c及び第4指部20dは、長さを除き略同形状に形成される。なお、長さは同等でもよいが、好ましくは、図示のように。第3指部20cが他より長い。第3指部20cを例に説明すると、一例として、芯部22cは、4つの棒状の芯部材を有し、隣同士の芯部材は関節部により可動に接続される。 The intermediate second finger portion 20b, third finger portion 20c and fourth finger portion 20d are formed in substantially the same shape except for the length. It should be noted that the lengths may be equal, but preferably as shown. The third finger 20c is longer than the others. Taking the third finger portion 20c as an example, as an example, the core portion 22c has four rod-shaped core members, and adjacent core members are movably connected by joint portions.

ここで、芯部材についてより具体的に説明すると、各芯部材は、基端部が横幅を減らして板状に形成され、板厚を貫通する孔部が設けられる。第1芯部材以外の各芯部材は、先端部の中央に後方に凹む溝部が設けられ、溝部の両側の壁部に横方向に貫通する孔部が設けられる。各芯部材の基端部は、隣接芯部材の先端部の溝部に挿入され、共同して後述の軸部材に挿通され、連結される。
ここで示した例では、隣接芯部材間を軸部材で連結している。しかし、これに限らず、ワイヤーで芯部材の先端部同士を溶着やカシメ、接着、ねじ止めなどで連結して、各指部が各関節部分で屈曲可能にしても良い。また、芯部材間を直接連結せずに、作用部21で各芯部材及び各芯部材間を包み込むことで、各芯部材を間接的に連結させ、各指部が各関節部分で屈曲可能にしてもよい。
Here, the core member will be described more specifically. Each core member is formed in a plate-like shape with a reduced width at the base end, and is provided with a hole penetrating through the thickness of the plate. Each of the core members other than the first core member has a rear recessed groove at the center of the distal end portion, and laterally penetrating holes are provided in the walls on both sides of the groove. The proximal end of each core member is inserted into the groove of the distal end of the adjacent core member, and jointly passed through a shaft member described later to be connected.
In the example shown here, adjacent core members are connected by shaft members. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the tips of the core members may be connected with wires by welding, caulking, adhesion, screwing, or the like so that each finger can be bent at each joint. In addition, by wrapping each core member and between each core member with the action portion 21 instead of connecting the core members directly, each core member is indirectly connected and each finger can be bent at each joint. may

図6に示すように、第3指部20cは、第1芯部材221cと第2芯部材222cが軸部材2201cにより回動可能に連結され、第2芯部材222cと第3芯部材223cが軸部材2202cにより回動可能に連結される。 As shown in FIG. 6, in the third finger portion 20c, a first core member 221c and a second core member 222c are rotatably connected by a shaft member 2201c, and a second core member 222c and a third core member 223c are connected as shafts. It is rotatably connected by member 2202c.

第3指部20cは、第3芯部材223cと第4芯部材224cが軸部材1101により回動可能に連結される。軸部材1101は、図5(a)に示すように、第2指部20b、第3指部20c及び第4指部20dの共通の枢軸であってこれらを一体に連結するものである。また、第1指部20a、第5指部20eを含む5つの指部の最後方の芯部材の基端部を挿通する軸部材1102は、図5(a)に示すように、5つの指部の共通の枢軸であってこれらを一体に連結するものである。好ましくは、共通の軸部材の周辺の作用部は、隣同士で結合して一体となり、掌状部11を形成する。 In the third finger portion 20c, the third core member 223c and the fourth core member 224c are rotatably connected by the shaft member 1101. As shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 5(a), the shaft member 1101 is a common pivot shaft for the second finger portion 20b, the third finger portion 20c and the fourth finger portion 20d and integrally connects them. 5A, the shaft member 1102 through which the proximal ends of the rearmost core members of the five fingers including the first finger 20a and the fifth finger 20e are inserted, the common pivot of the parts and connects them together. Preferably, the peripheral working portions of the common shaft member are joined together next to each other to form the palm portion 11 .

接続部30の前段部31の施術連結部311は、略U字状に形成され、前後方向に延びる両端部が軸部材1101及び軸部材1102により挿通され、所定角度内で回動可能に施術部を支持する。また、好ましくは、前段部31が可撓性を有し、施術部10の自重で撓るようになっている。 The treatment connection part 311 of the front stage part 31 of the connection part 30 is formed in a substantially U shape, and both ends extending in the front-rear direction are inserted by the shaft members 1101 and 1102 so that the treatment part is rotatable within a predetermined angle. support. Moreover, preferably, the front stage portion 31 has flexibility, and is bent by the weight of the treatment portion 10 itself.

また、図示しないが、各軸部材の軸部にばね部材(例えば捩じりばねや、板ばね、コイルばね)が設けられ、撓る量を押えられる構造としても良い。さらに、対象部位との接触面が湾曲面となるようにばね部材を組み合わせても良い。また、軸部材に、ラッチを設け、ラッチのばねの強度と組合せて、所定の強さで一定の角度を保持し固定できるようにして、各指部の角度を変更できるようにしてもよい。 Moreover, although not shown, a spring member (for example, a torsion spring, a leaf spring, or a coil spring) may be provided on the shaft portion of each shaft member to suppress the bending amount. Furthermore, the spring members may be combined so that the contact surface with the target site is a curved surface. Also, a latch may be provided on the shaft member, and combined with the strength of the spring of the latch, a fixed angle may be held and fixed with a predetermined strength, so that the angle of each finger may be changed.

施術部10は、指部の芯部が関節部を有するため、図7(a)の初期状態の施術部10を、対象部位O上に載せると、自重により指部が動き、対象部位Oの表面形状に沿った形となる。例えば、対象部位Oが凸曲面である場合は、図7(b)、図7(c)、図7(d)に示すように、対象部位Oの凸曲面状に沿った形状に各指部が曲がり、対象部位Oと密接に接触するようになる。また、施術部10は、指部の作用部が凹状の節部を有するため、関節部がより動きやすくなる。
これにより、対象部位Oが例えば肩や肘、踵、頭などの凸曲面(球面)状の部位の場合であっても、密接に接触して、揺らす、撫でるなどの施術を行うことができ、施術の効果を高めることができる。また、対象部位Oが腕や足などの円柱状の部位、腹部の側部などの半円柱状の部位の場合であっても、その形状に沿わせた形で施術を行い、高い施術効果が得られる。
Since the core of the fingers of the treatment section 10 has joints, when the treatment section 10 in the initial state shown in FIG. The shape conforms to the surface shape. For example, when the target site O is a convex curved surface, each finger portion is shaped along the convex curved surface of the target site O as shown in FIGS. 7B, 7C, and 7D. bends and comes into intimate contact with the target site O. In addition, since the operating portion of the finger portion of the treatment portion 10 has a concave knot portion, the joint portion can be more easily moved.
As a result, even if the target site O is a convex curved surface (spherical surface) such as a shoulder, elbow, heel, or head, it is possible to perform a treatment such as shaking or stroking by closely contacting the target site. It can enhance the effect of surgery. In addition, even if the target part O is a cylindrical part such as an arm or a leg, or a semi-cylindrical part such as the side of the abdomen, the treatment is performed along the shape of the part, and a high treatment effect can be obtained. can get.

好ましくは、施術部10は、隣接の指部同士の間隔が調整可能である。一例として、図8(a)に示すように、第1指部20a及び第5指部20eを外側に動かして、隣接の指部との間隔を広げ、施術部10全体の横幅を広げるようにしてもよい。これにより、広範囲の施術を効率よく行うことができる。また、例えば、図8(b)、図8(c)に示すように、真ん中の3本の指部による施術の場合も行いやすくなる。 Preferably, in the treatment section 10, the spacing between adjacent finger sections can be adjusted. As an example, as shown in FIG. 8(a), the first finger portion 20a and the fifth finger portion 20e are moved outward to widen the distance between the adjacent finger portions and widen the width of the treatment portion 10 as a whole. may As a result, a wide range of treatments can be performed efficiently. Further, for example, as shown in FIGS. 8(b) and 8(c), it becomes easier to perform the treatment using the middle three fingers.

施術部10は、指部を個別に動かす指動機構を有してもよい。一例として、施術部10は、指部の芯部材を引っ張るように構成された腱部材を有し、図8(d)に示すように、腱部材により一部の指部を対象部位Oから離れる方向に引っ張って反らせることで、残りの指部で施術を行うようにしてもよい。他の例として、腱部材により、一部の指部を対象部位O方向に大きく曲げて、対象部位Oと接触しないようにしてもよい。また、対象部位Oに対して施術を行う指部を、腱部材により動かして、形状や動作を変えて施術を行ってもよい。 The treatment section 10 may have a finger movement mechanism for individually moving the fingers. As an example, the treatment section 10 has a tendon member configured to pull the core member of the finger, and as shown in FIG. By pulling it in a direction and bending it, you may make it operate|move with the remaining finger|toe part. As another example, a tendon member may bend some fingers in the direction of the target site O so as not to contact the target site O. FIG. Further, the finger part that performs the treatment on the target site O may be moved by the tendon member to change the shape or the operation to perform the treatment.

このように、施術器具1は、接触、密着の態様を変更するなどして、施術の対象部位や施術の目的などに合わせて施術を行うことができる。 In this manner, the treatment instrument 1 can perform treatment in accordance with the target site to be treated, the purpose of the treatment, etc., by changing the mode of contact and close contact.

図18は第3実施形態に係る施術器具の他の例を示す図で、(a)正面図、(b)側面図である。施術器具1は、さらに、当て部81を備え、当て部81に支えられて、施術部10が振れるように施術が行われてもよい。
当て部81は、側面当て部811と、当て腕部812と、位置調整部813とを有する。側面当て部811は、所定の間隔を置いて、施術部10の横に設けられる。位置調整部813は、一例として、接続部30の後段部33に装着され、ネジ8131により接続部30に固定される。当て腕部812は、側面当て部811と位置調整部813の間に延びる部分である。
当て部81の位置は、ネジ8131を緩めて位置調整部813の位置を調整することで、調整され得る。当て腕部812が変形可能な素材で形成され、当て腕部812を所定の形状に曲げることで相対的に調整されてもよい。当て部81にラッチ機構が設けられ、これによりまたはこれと合わせて位置ないし施術部10との間隔が調整されるようになってもよい。
なお、側面当て部811は、施術者またはその装着物に当接または保持されるものでもよいし、非施術者またはその装着物に当接または保持されるものでもよいし、施術ベッドやいすまたはその周辺部材等に当接または保持されるものでもよい。なお、このような当て部は、他の実施形態の施術器具に設けられてもよい。

<第4実施形態>
図9は第4実施形態に係る施術器具の一例を示す図で、(a)一例を示す図、(b)他の一例を示す図である。以下では、主として上記実施形態と異なる点を説明する。本実施形態の施術器具1は、施術部10を対象部位上で一体に移動させる移動機構を有する。
<Fourth Embodiment>
FIG. 9 is a diagram showing an example of a surgical instrument according to the fourth embodiment, (a) showing one example, and (b) showing another example. Differences from the above embodiment will be mainly described below. The treatment instrument 1 of this embodiment has a moving mechanism that moves the treatment section 10 integrally on the target site.

移動機構は、一例として、引き部41と、前段部31と、圧縮コイルばね71とを含んで構成される。引き部41は、ハンドル部40に後方に引くことができるように配設される。ハンドル部40は、ここでは、略四角枠状に形成され、引き部41は、ハンドル部40を横断するように配設される。引き部41は、横方向に長い長尺部材で、前方の面が指を掛けやすいように4つの指と対応する4つの凹部を有する。 The movement mechanism includes, for example, a pull portion 41 , a front stage portion 31 and a compression coil spring 71 . The pull part 41 is arranged on the handle part 40 so that it can be pulled rearward. Here, the handle portion 40 is formed in a substantially rectangular frame shape, and the pull portion 41 is arranged so as to traverse the handle portion 40 . The pulling part 41 is an elongated member elongated in the lateral direction, and has four recesses corresponding to four fingers so that the front surface of the pulling part 41 can be easily hooked.

前段部31は、ここでは、中段部32及び後段部33が筒状に形成され、前段部31がその内側を挿通して、引き部41と接続する。言い換えれば、前段部31は、ハンドル部40まで延びて、ハンドル部40の前方枠に設けられた貫通孔を挿通して引き部41と接続する。 The front step portion 31 includes a middle step portion 32 and a rear step portion 33 formed in a cylindrical shape. In other words, the front stage portion 31 extends to the handle portion 40 , is inserted through a through hole provided in the front frame of the handle portion 40 , and is connected to the pull portion 41 .

圧縮コイルばね71は、前段部31の露出部分に嵌められる。より具体的には、前段部31には、施術部10の基端部近辺に径方向に膨出する膨張部312が設けられる。膨張部312は、少なくとも後端が前段部31の他の部分より太くなっている。圧縮コイルばね71は、膨張部312と中段部32との間に、前段部31がその内側を挿通するように嵌められる。 The compression coil spring 71 is fitted to the exposed portion of the front step portion 31 . More specifically, the front stage portion 31 is provided with an expansion portion 312 that expands in the radial direction near the base end portion of the treatment portion 10 . At least the rear end of the expansion portion 312 is thicker than the other portions of the front step portion 31 . The compression coil spring 71 is fitted between the expanded portion 312 and the intermediate step portion 32 so that the front step portion 31 is inserted through the inner side thereof.

図9(a)に示すように、引き部41を矢印方向に引くと、施術部10が矢印方向に後退する。引き部41を緩めると、圧縮コイルばね71により、施術部10が前方に戻される。このように、施術器具1は、移動機構を設けることで、上記施術以外に、さらに、施術部のみを前後方向に移動させて、対象部位を撫でる、優しく擦るなどの施術を行うことができる。 As shown in FIG. 9( a ), when the pulling portion 41 is pulled in the direction of the arrow, the treatment portion 10 retreats in the direction of the arrow. When the pulling portion 41 is loosened, the treatment portion 10 is returned forward by the compression coil spring 71 . In this manner, by providing the movement mechanism, the treatment instrument 1 can perform treatment such as stroking or gently rubbing the target site by moving only the treatment part in the front-rear direction, in addition to the above treatment.

施術部10は、一例として、上記実施形態2(図3)と同様に、図9(a)のように指部が前後方向に延在するように配列される。施術部10は、一例として、図9(b)のように、指部が左右方向(横方向)に延在するように配列され、長手方向と交差するようになってもよい。複数の指部を串状に連結する指連結部は、第1指連結部13、第2指連結部14及び第3指連結部16の3つの指連結部から構成されてもよい。 As an example, the treatment section 10 is arranged such that the fingers extend in the front-rear direction as shown in FIG. 9A, as in the second embodiment (FIG. 3). As an example, as shown in FIG. 9B, the treatment section 10 may be arranged such that the fingers extend in the left-right direction (horizontal direction) and intersect the longitudinal direction. A finger connecting portion that connects a plurality of finger portions in a skewed manner may be composed of three finger connecting portions: a first finger connecting portion 13 , a second finger connecting portion 14 and a third finger connecting portion 16 .

また、図示しないが、図9(a)の施術部10が一体に回転することができ、回転して図9(b)の態様になったり、他の角度で長手方向と交差する態様になったりして施術が行われてもよい。施術部10を回転させる機構は、特に限定されず、従来技術が適宜用いられてよい。例えば、ラッチで回転が止まるなどの構造が用いられてもよい。 Also, although not shown, the treatment section 10 of FIG. 9(a) can be rotated integrally, and rotated to the state of FIG. 9(b), or to a state that crosses the longitudinal direction at another angle The operation may be performed on a regular basis. A mechanism for rotating the treatment section 10 is not particularly limited, and a conventional technique may be used as appropriate. For example, a structure in which rotation is stopped by a latch may be used.

<第5実施形態>
図10は第5実施形態に係る施術器具の一例を示す図である。以下では、主として上記実施形態と異なる点を説明する。本実施形態の施術器具1は、施術部10とともに施術を行う付加施術部50を備える。施術部10は、上記実施形態のいずれかの施術部と同様に形成され、一例として、上記第3実施形態(図5)と同様に形成される。
<Fifth Embodiment>
FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of a surgical instrument according to the fifth embodiment. Differences from the above embodiment will be mainly described below. The treatment instrument 1 of this embodiment includes an additional treatment section 50 that performs treatment together with the treatment section 10 . The treatment section 10 is formed in the same manner as the treatment section in any one of the above embodiments, and as an example, is formed in the same manner as in the third embodiment (FIG. 5).

付加施術部50は、一例として、施術部10と同様に形成される。好ましくは、施術器具1は、施術部10に対して、付加施術部50を移動させる移動機構を備える。移動機構は、一例として、接続軸34と、ハンドル部40と、付加接続部60と、ねじりコイルばね72と、ねじりコイルばね73とを含んで構成される。この移動機構により、付加施術部50は、施術部10上で滑り移動できる。 The additional treatment section 50 is formed in the same manner as the treatment section 10, for example. Preferably, the treatment instrument 1 has a movement mechanism for moving the additional treatment section 50 with respect to the treatment section 10 . The movement mechanism includes, for example, the connection shaft 34 , the handle portion 40 , the additional connection portion 60 , the torsion coil spring 72 and the torsion coil spring 73 . This moving mechanism allows the additional treatment section 50 to slide on the treatment section 10 .

このとき、施術部10の振れ幅は、対象部位上を施術部10が滑らない範囲内に押えるほうが、施術効果が高まる。このため、施術部10の振れ幅を制限ないし調整できる機構を設けても良い。振れ幅は、5mmから60mm、好ましくは5mmから50mm、より好ましくは5mmから40mmである。 At this time, the treatment effect is enhanced when the amplitude of the treatment section 10 is held within a range in which the treatment section 10 does not slip on the target site. Therefore, a mechanism that can limit or adjust the amplitude of the treatment section 10 may be provided. The amplitude is 5 mm to 60 mm, preferably 5 mm to 50 mm, more preferably 5 mm to 40 mm.

接続部30には、付加接続部60と接続するための接続軸34が設けられる。接続軸34には、ねじりコイルばね73のコイルが嵌められる。ねじりコイルばね73の一方の腕は接続部30に後方に延びるように配設され、他方の腕は後述の第1付加接続部61に配設される。 The connecting portion 30 is provided with a connecting shaft 34 for connecting with the additional connecting portion 60 . A coil of a torsion coil spring 73 is fitted to the connection shaft 34 . One arm of the torsion coil spring 73 is arranged on the connection portion 30 so as to extend rearward, and the other arm is arranged on a first additional connection portion 61 which will be described later.

ハンドル部40は、先端部より後方の部分が二股状に第1ハンドルと第2ハンドルに分かれている。ねじりコイルばね72のコイルは、ハンドル部40の先端部に配設され、両腕は第1ハンドル及び第2ハンドルにそれぞれ配設される。ねじりコイルばね72の反発力により、ハンドル部40は、第1ハンドルと第2ハンドルとが接近したり離開したりして開閉できる。 The handle portion 40 is bifurcated into a first handle and a second handle at the rear portion of the tip portion. The coil of the torsion coil spring 72 is arranged at the tip of the handle portion 40, and both arms are arranged on the first handle and the second handle, respectively. Due to the repulsive force of the torsion coil spring 72, the handle portion 40 can be opened and closed by bringing the first handle and the second handle closer together or separating them.

付加接続部60は、付加施術部50と接続部30とを接続する第1付加接続部61と、第1付加接続部61とハンドル部40とを接続する第2付加接続部62とを有する。 The additional connection section 60 has a first additional connection section 61 that connects the additional treatment section 50 and the connection section 30 , and a second additional connection section 62 that connects the first additional connection section 61 and the handle section 40 .

第1付加接続部61は、基端部寄りの部分に孔部が設けられ、この孔部と接続軸34が篏合して、付加施術部50が接続部30に回動可能に接続される。第1付加接続部61は、基端部が二股状に第1基端及び第2基端に分かれており、そのうちの一方の基端に線材(ケーブル等)により構成される第2付加接続部62の一端が固定される。第2付加接続部62は、ハンドル部40の一方のハンドルを経由して、他方のハンドルに渡り、他端が固定される。 The first additional connection part 61 is provided with a hole near the base end, and this hole and the connection shaft 34 are fitted to connect the additional treatment part 50 to the connection part 30 so as to be rotatable. . The base end of the first additional connection portion 61 is bifurcated into a first base end and a second base end. One end of 62 is fixed. The second additional connection portion 62 extends to the other handle via one handle of the handle portion 40 and is fixed at the other end.

施術器具1は、好ましくは、接続部30が外側(付加施術部50から離れる方向)に湾曲ないし屈曲し、第1付加接続部61が外側(施術部10から離れる方向)に湾曲ないし屈曲して、施術部10と付加施術部50との間の間隔が広げられる。また、好ましくは、付加施術部50は、施術部10と交差するように配設される。 The treatment instrument 1 preferably has the connecting portion 30 curved or bent outward (in the direction away from the additional treatment portion 50), and the first additional connection portion 61 curved or bent outward (in the direction away from the treatment portion 10). , the distance between the treatment section 10 and the additional treatment section 50 is widened. Moreover, preferably, the additional treatment section 50 is arranged so as to cross the treatment section 10 .

施術の際は、まず、図10中の(1)で図示のように、施術器具1を対象部位Oに載せる。(2)で図示のように、ハンドル部40を握って矢印方向に閉じると、第2付加接続部62が緩み、ねじりコイルばね73が矢印方向にねじり、付加施術部50が矢印方向に後退するように滑り移動する。(3)で図示のように、ハンドル部40を緩めると、第2付加接続部62が元の状態に戻り、ねじりコイルばね73が開き、付加施術部50が矢印方向に前進するように滑り移動する。 During treatment, first, the treatment instrument 1 is placed on the target site O as shown in (1) in FIG. 10 . As shown in (2), when the handle portion 40 is gripped and closed in the direction of the arrow, the second additional connection portion 62 loosens, the torsion coil spring 73 twists in the direction of the arrow, and the additional treatment portion 50 retreats in the direction of the arrow. It slides and moves. As shown in (3), when the handle portion 40 is loosened, the second additional connection portion 62 returns to its original state, the torsion coil spring 73 opens, and the additional treatment portion 50 slides forward in the direction of the arrow. do.

このように、施術器具1は、付加施術部を備えることで、上記施術以外に、さらに、複雑な施術を行うことができる。一例として、施術部上で、付加施術部を滑り移動させる移動機構を設けて、人間の両手を重ねて行う施術を行えるようになる。 In this way, the surgical instrument 1 can perform more complicated surgical procedures in addition to the surgical procedures described above by including the additional surgical section. As an example, a movement mechanism for slidingly moving the additional treatment section is provided on the treatment section, so that a treatment can be performed by placing both hands of a person on top of each other.

なお、本実施形態の施術部は、上記実施形態と異なる構成でもよい。一例として、施術部の指部は、芯部を有せず、作用部のみで構成されてもよい。一例として、施術部は、棒状の指部ではなく、広い接触面(平面、曲面など)を有する柔軟性のある板状部材で構成されてもよい。付加施術部は、施術部と同様に形成されてもよいし、異なる構成でもよい。また、ハンドル部は、上記のように施術部及び付加施術部の双方を操作するものでもよいし、一方のみを操作するものでもよい。すなわち、施術部及び付加施術部はそれぞれ別のハンドル部で操作されてもよい。 Note that the treatment section of this embodiment may have a configuration different from that of the above embodiment. As an example, the finger portion of the treatment portion may be composed only of the action portion without the core portion. As an example, the treatment section may be composed of a flexible plate-like member having a wide contact surface (flat surface, curved surface, etc.) instead of the rod-like finger portion. The additional treatment section may be formed in the same manner as the treatment section, or may have a different configuration. Further, the handle portion may operate both the treatment portion and the additional treatment portion as described above, or may operate only one of them. That is, the treatment section and the additional treatment section may be operated by separate handle sections.

ここでの施術は、一例として、対象部位(例えば肌)の上に施術部10を載せ、その上に載る付加施術部50が振れる(揺れ動く)ようにすることで、付加施術部50が施術部10を揺らし、施術部10が対象部位を揺らすものである。この間接的な動きにより直接施術部を揺らす動きに比べてより穏やかで滑らかで優しい動作が得られ、より体に優しい施術となる。例えば皮膚のファシアケアーにおける揺らす圧力は通常20g前後と言われている。ここでは、例えば10gから100gとする。 As an example of the treatment here, the treatment section 10 is placed on a target site (for example, skin), and the additional treatment section 50 placed thereon is shaken (swayed) so that the additional treatment section 50 is moved to the treatment site. 10 is shaken, and the treatment section 10 shakes the target site. This indirect movement provides a gentler, smoother and gentler movement than the movement of directly shaking the treated area, resulting in a more body-friendly treatment. For example, it is said that the shaking pressure in fascia care for the skin is usually around 20 g. Here, for example, 10 g to 100 g.

また、この時に付加施術部50の振れ幅は、対象部位上を施術部10が滑らない範囲内に押えるほうが、施術の効果が高まる。このため、振れ幅は、5mmから60mm、好ましくは5mmから50mmとする。またこの範囲で振れ幅を調節できるようにしても良い。 Further, at this time, the effect of the treatment is enhanced when the swing width of the additional treatment portion 50 is held within a range in which the treatment portion 10 does not slip on the target site. Therefore, the deflection width is set to 5 mm to 60 mm, preferably 5 mm to 50 mm. Also, the amplitude may be adjusted within this range.

<第6実施形態>
図11は第6実施形態に係る施術器具の一例を示す図である。図12は施術器具の付加施術部の他の例を示す図である。以下では、主として上記実施形態5と異なる点を説明する。本実施形態の付加施術部50Aは、施術部10を叩くことができるように構成される。施術部10は、上記実施形態のいずれかの施術部と同様に形成され、一例として、上記第2実施形態(図3)と同様に形成される。また、第5実施形態と同様に、施術部は上記実施形態と異なる構成でもよい。
<Sixth embodiment>
FIG. 11 is a diagram showing an example of a surgical instrument according to the sixth embodiment. FIG. 12 is a diagram showing another example of the additional treatment section of the treatment instrument. Differences from the fifth embodiment will be mainly described below. 50 A of additional treatment parts of this embodiment are comprised so that the treatment part 10 can be hit. The treatment section 10 is formed in the same manner as the treatment section in any one of the above embodiments, and as an example, is formed in the same manner as in the second embodiment (FIG. 3). Moreover, as in the fifth embodiment, the treatment section may have a different configuration from that in the above embodiment.

施術部10に対して付加施術部50Aを移動させる移動機構は、一例として、接続軸34Aと、ハンドル部40と、付加接続部60Aと、引張コイルばね74とを含んで構成される。ハンドル部40は、上記実施形態4(図9)と同様に構成される。 A movement mechanism for moving the additional treatment section 50A with respect to the treatment section 10 includes, for example, a connection shaft 34A, a handle section 40, an additional connection section 60A, and an extension coil spring 74. The handle portion 40 is configured in the same manner as in the fourth embodiment (FIG. 9).

接続部30には、付加接続部60Aと接続するための接続軸34Aが設けられる。例えば、第1付加接続部61Aの細いピン状の軸部が接続軸34Aの孔部に嵌め込まれることで、付加施術部50Aが接続部30に回動可能に接続される。引張コイルばね74は、一方のフックが第1付加接続部61Aに係り、他方のフックが接続部30に係るように配設される。第2付加接続部62Aは、一端が第1付加接続部61Aの基端部に固定され、他端が接続部30を経由して、ハンドル部40の引き部41に固定される。 The connecting portion 30 is provided with a connecting shaft 34A for connecting with the additional connecting portion 60A. For example, by fitting the thin pin-shaped shaft portion of the first additional connection portion 61A into the hole portion of the connection shaft 34A, the additional treatment portion 50A is rotatably connected to the connection portion 30 . The tension coil spring 74 is arranged so that one hook is associated with the first additional connection portion 61A and the other hook is associated with the connection portion 30 . One end of the second additional connection portion 62A is fixed to the base end portion of the first additional connection portion 61A, and the other end is fixed to the pull portion 41 of the handle portion 40 via the connection portion 30 .

付加施術部50Aは、一例として、球体状に形成される。 50 A of additional treatment parts are formed in spherical shape as an example.

施術の際は、まず、施術器具1を対象部位Oに載せる。この状態では、付加施術部50Aは、第2付加接続部62Aが緩み、付加施術部50Aが施術部10上に載っている。図11中の(1)で図示のように、ハンドル部40を握って引き部41を引くと、第2付加接続部62Aが引っ張られ、付加施術部50Aが持ち上げられる。(2)で図示のように、引き部41を矢印方向に緩めると、第2付加接続部62Aが緩み、引張コイルばね74により、付加施術部50Aが矢印方向に下降して(落とされて)、施術部10を叩くようになる。 At the time of treatment, the treatment instrument 1 is placed on the target site O first. In this state, the second additional connecting portion 62A of the additional treatment section 50A is loosened, and the additional treatment section 50A rests on the treatment section 10. As shown in FIG. As shown in (1) in FIG. 11, when the handle portion 40 is gripped and the pulling portion 41 is pulled, the second additional connection portion 62A is pulled, and the additional treatment portion 50A is lifted. As shown in (2), when the pulling portion 41 is loosened in the direction of the arrow, the second additional connection portion 62A is loosened, and the extension coil spring 74 lowers (drops) the additional treatment portion 50A in the direction of the arrow. , to hit the treatment site 10 .

なお、図示しないが、落とすことを前提とせず、例えば、付加施術部50Aを引張コイルばねと反発するコイルばねを拮抗させた状態にして、第2付加接続部62Aを引くことで、付加施術部50Aを横位置や下方向からでも動けるようにし叩ける構造としても良い。 Although not shown, it is not assumed that the additional treatment section 50A will be dropped. A structure may be adopted in which 50A can be moved from a horizontal position or from a downward direction so that it can be hit.

このように、施術器具1は、付加施術部を備えることで、上記施術以外に、さらに、複雑な施術を行うことができる。一例として、付加施術部が施術部を叩くように移動させる移動機構を設けて、人間の両手で間接的に対象部位Oを叩く施術を行えるようになる。これにより、衝撃を減らしながらも、振動を深部に伝えることができる。 In this way, the surgical instrument 1 can perform more complicated surgical procedures in addition to the surgical procedures described above by including the additional surgical section. As an example, a movement mechanism is provided to move the additional treatment section so that it hits the treatment section, and a treatment can be performed by indirectly hitting the target site O with both hands of a person. This allows vibrations to be transmitted deeper while reducing impact.

12(a)に示すように、付加施術部50Aは玄能状に形成されてもよい。図12(b)に示すように、付加施術部50Aは、一端に打撃部51A、他端に打撃部52Aを有し、その間の細い中間部53Cに衝撃吸収部54Aが設けられてもよい。図12(c)に示すように、付加施術部50Aは、一方の打撃部52Aが2つの細長い脚部で構成されてもよい。図12(d)に示すように、付加施術部50Aは、打撃部52Aの一つの脚部に湾曲ないし屈曲してなる衝撃吸収部54Aが設けられてもよい。2つの脚部は、長さが異なり、段差Mを有してもよい。図12(E)に示すように、付加施術部50Aは、両脚部に衝撃吸収部54Aが設けられてもよい。 As shown in 12(a), the additional treatment portion 50A may be formed in the shape of a prick. As shown in FIG. 12(b), the additional treatment section 50A may have a striking section 51A at one end and a striking section 52A at the other end, and a shock absorbing section 54A may be provided in a narrow intermediate section 53C therebetween. As shown in FIG. 12(c), one striking portion 52A of the additional treatment portion 50A may be composed of two elongated legs. As shown in FIG. 12(d), the additional treatment section 50A may be provided with a shock absorbing section 54A formed by bending or bending one leg of the striking section 52A. The two legs may be of different lengths and have a step M. As shown in FIG. 12(E), the additional treatment section 50A may be provided with shock absorbing sections 54A on both legs.

<第7実施形態>
図13は第7実施形態に係る施術器具の一例を示す図である。図14は施術器具の他の一例を示す図である。図15は施術器具の他の一例を示す図である。図16は付加施術部の他の例を示す図である。以下では、主として上記実施形態と異なる点を説明する。上記実施形態の施術部10の複数の指部が幅方向(X方向)に並ぶように配列されるのに対して、本実施形態の施術部10は、複数の指部が上下方向(Z方向)に並ぶように配列される。
<Seventh Embodiment>
FIG. 13 is a diagram showing an example of a surgical instrument according to the seventh embodiment. FIG. 14 is a diagram showing another example of the surgical instrument. FIG. 15 is a diagram showing another example of the surgical instrument. FIG. 16 is a diagram showing another example of the additional treatment area. Differences from the above embodiment will be mainly described below. While the plurality of fingers of the treatment section 10 of the above embodiment are arranged in the width direction (X direction), the treatment section 10 of the present embodiment has a plurality of fingers arranged in the vertical direction (Z direction). ) are aligned.

施術部10は、第1指部20a、第2指部20b及び第3指部20cの3つの指部を有する。第1指部20aの芯部22aは3つの芯部材により構成され、第2指部20bの芯部22bは4つの芯部材により構成され、第3指部20Cの芯部22cは3つの芯部材により構成され、第1指部20aと線対称に構成される。各指部は、隣接芯部材同士が軸部材を介して可動に接続される。また、各指部の軸部材は、図示のように、互い違いに上・下の芯部材の中心付近に位置する様に配置される。言い換えれば、各指部の軸部材は、隣接の指部の軸部材と長手方向の位置が互い違いになるように配置される。指連結部16は、略U字形状であり、両端部で第1指部20a及び第3指部20cと軸部材を介して可動に接続し、中間部で第2指部20bと軸部材を介して可動に接続する。
ここで示した例では、隣接芯部材間を軸部材で連結している。しかし、これに限らず、ワイヤーで芯部材の先端部同士を溶着やカシメ、接着、ねじ止めなどで連結して、各指部が各関節部分で屈曲可能にしても良い。また、芯部材間を直接連結せずに、作用部21で各芯部材及び各芯部材間を包み込むことで、各芯部材を間接的に連結させ、各指部が各関節部分で屈曲可能にしてもよい。
The treatment section 10 has three fingers, a first finger 20a, a second finger 20b and a third finger 20c. The core portion 22a of the first finger portion 20a is composed of three core members, the core portion 22b of the second finger portion 20b is composed of four core members, and the core portion 22c of the third finger portion 20C is composed of three core members. and configured line-symmetrically with the first finger portion 20a. Adjacent core members of each finger are movably connected via a shaft member. Also, the shaft members of the fingers are alternately arranged so as to be positioned near the centers of the upper and lower core members, as shown in the drawing. In other words, the stem members of each finger are arranged such that they are longitudinally staggered with the stem members of adjacent fingers. The finger connecting portion 16 has a substantially U shape, and is movably connected to the first finger portion 20a and the third finger portion 20c at both end portions, and is connected to the second finger portion 20b and the shaft member at the intermediate portion. connect movably through
In the example shown here, adjacent core members are connected by shaft members. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the tips of the core members may be connected with wires by welding, caulking, adhesion, screwing, or the like so that each finger can be bent at each joint. In addition, by wrapping each core member and between each core member with the action portion 21 instead of connecting the core members directly, each core member is indirectly connected and each finger can be bent at each joint. may

接続部30は、2つの弾性部材(例えば、コイルばねや板ばね、ゴム等)で構成され、上下2箇所で指連結部16とハンドル部40とを接続する。 The connecting portion 30 is composed of two elastic members (eg, coil spring, leaf spring, rubber, etc.), and connects the finger connecting portion 16 and the handle portion 40 at two upper and lower positions.

図13中の(1)の施術器具1は、初期状態にある。施術の際は、(2)のように、矢印方向に施術部10を振り下ろす。そうすると、(3)のように、第1指部20aが下降し、対象部位Oに当たって、矢印方向に跳ね返る。(4)のように、跳ね返って上昇する第1指部20aが下降する第2指部20bに当たり、第2指部20bが第3指部20cに当たるが、第1指部20aが再び下降し、対象部位Oに当たる。(5)のように、第1指部20aの荷重とともに、第3指部20c及び第2指部20bの荷重も対象部位にかかるようになるが、作用部が柔軟性を有するように構成されるため、この荷重は対象部位Oに瞬間的に与えられるのではなく、緩やかに、連続した力が掛かる。これにより体の深部に広がる。一方で、強く急激に加わることを避けることが出来る。また、凸部などでも、局部に力が加わるのではなく、例えば第1指部20aの下部全体で力が加わるようになる。
また、この際、第3指部20cの先端側が屈曲し、第2指部20bの先端側の芯部材を押し下げ、続いて第2指部20bの先端側が屈曲し、第1指部20aの先端側を押し下げて屈曲させる。これにより第1指部20aの先端が対象部位Oを回り込むように動いて取り囲むように力を加えることが出来る。
The surgical instrument 1 of (1) in FIG. 13 is in the initial state. During the treatment, the treatment section 10 is swung down in the direction of the arrow as shown in (2). Then, as shown in (3), the first finger portion 20a descends, hits the target portion O, and rebounds in the direction of the arrow. As in (4), the first finger 20a that rebounds and rises hits the second finger 20b that descends, and the second finger 20b hits the third finger 20c, but the first finger 20a descends again, It hits the target part O. As in (5), the loads of the third finger portion 20c and the second finger portion 20b are applied to the target portion along with the load of the first finger portion 20a. Therefore, this load is not applied to the target portion O instantaneously, but is applied gently and continuously. This allows it to spread deeper into the body. On the other hand, a strong and abrupt addition can be avoided. In addition, the force is applied to the entire lower portion of the first finger portion 20a, for example, instead of being applied locally to the convex portion.
