Description
本發明係相關於改善或預防膝關節疼痛發生之膝用支撐裝置。The present invention relates to a knee support device for improving or preventing the occurrence of knee pain.
膝關節疼痛之部位包含:內側裂隙部位的內側半月板、外側裂隙部位的外側半月板、內側韌帶、外側韌帶、前十字韌帶、後十字韌帶等。此些部位的損傷或變形為疼痛主因。於此所述之「內側」表示較靠近另一腿部之側,「外側」表示遠離另一腿部之側。The site of knee pain includes: the medial meniscus of the medial fissure, the lateral meniscus of the lateral fissure, the medial ligament, the lateral ligament, the anterior cruciate ligament, and the posterior cruciate ligament. Damage or deformation of these parts is the main cause of pain. The "inside" as used herein means the side closer to the other leg, and the "outer side" means the side away from the other leg.
表現疼痛的部位係為自位在內側裂隙部位的後方附近而沿著膝蓋骨內側面之膝關節內側之三角形狀(膝蓋骨之內側面作為底邊,而自此底邊之端部而在內側裂隙部位方向而形成山形的區域)的部位。且,自外側裂隙部位後方附近在膝蓋骨之內側面處亦同。對於此些症狀,沿著膝關節之膝蓋骨之內(外)側面之上下部位以及包含膝關節裂隙部位按壓可減輕疼痛。The part showing pain is a triangular shape that is located near the posterior aspect of the medial fissure and along the inner side of the knee joint. The inner side of the knee bone serves as the base, and the end of the base and the inner fissure. The part that forms the mountain-shaped area in the direction. Moreover, it is the same at the inner side of the knee bone from the vicinity of the rear side of the outer fissure. For these symptoms, compression can be alleviated by pressing the upper and lower sides of the inner (outer) side of the knee joint of the knee joint and including the knee joint fissure.
[專利文獻1]日本專利公開案第2006-299453號。[Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2006-299453.
[專利文獻2]日本專利公開案第2001-129007號。[Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2001-129007.
專利文獻1之膝用支撐裝置係確保膝關節之彎曲,藉由將用於覆蓋於關節之前側部位處之於彎曲時之尖角部(膝蓋部分)之中段布料之伸縮性設置為係較其上段布料及下段布料之伸縮性為高而構成。藉此,在穿戴該膝用支撐裝置時,中段布料不會阻礙膝關節突出之運動。The knee support device of Patent Document 1 secures the bending of the knee joint by setting the stretchability of the cloth in the middle portion of the sharp corner portion (knee portion) for covering the front side portion of the joint to be curved. The upper fabric and the lower fabric are highly stretchable. Thereby, when the knee support device is worn, the middle cloth does not hinder the movement of the knee joint.
在專利文獻2中,係為了防止膝部為橫方向的搖擺,在穿戴支撐裝置時,在正接膝部側面的位置處,縱向設置一條或二條之保護帶,而保持支撐裝置整體之形狀。In Patent Document 2, in order to prevent the knee from being swayed in the lateral direction, when the support device is worn, one or two protective bands are longitudinally disposed at a position immediately adjacent to the side surface of the knee, and the shape of the support device as a whole is maintained.
然而,在膝關為彎曲伸展時,膝關節周邊之皮膚係伸縮而隨動。此時,被固定於膝關節之習知膝用支撐裝置亦隨著皮膚之伸縮移動而隨動,而無法維持在適當之位置。However, when the knee is bent and stretched, the skin around the knee is stretched and followed. At this time, the conventional knee support device fixed to the knee joint also follows the movement of the skin, and cannot be maintained in an appropriate position.
且,在減輕膝關節之疼痛上,習知係為沿著膝關節之膝蓋骨之內(外)側之上下部位,以及膝關節裂隙部位的整體而使用人工按壓,並未揭示藉由膝用支撐裝置而在減輕該痛苦之適當位置處施加按壓力於膝關節。Moreover, in reducing the pain of the knee joint, it is customary to use manual pressing along the upper and lower parts of the knee joint (the outer) side of the knee joint, and the whole part of the knee joint fissure portion, and does not reveal the support by the knee. The device applies a pressing force to the knee joint at a suitable position to alleviate the pain.
且,習知之膝用支撐裝置於伸展膝蓋骨時雖吻合膝蓋骨之位置,但是彎曲膝蓋骨時無法緊密密合膝蓋骨而會造成滑動。Moreover, the conventional knee support device fits the position of the knee bone when the knee bone is stretched, but the knee bone cannot be tightly fitted when the knee bone is bent, which causes sliding.
本發明提出一種膝用支撐裝置,具有一按壓板,用為於膝關節之外側且/或內側而按壓膝關節、以及使該按壓板固定於膝關節之固定部,其中該按壓板係具有:一按壓板彎曲邊,其形狀為對應於膝蓋骨之內側端緣彎曲的邊且/或外側端緣彎曲的邊;以及自該按壓板彎曲邊的上端部及下端部而向膝關節之後側,且在膝關節裂隙周緣部分形成山形之後端部的二個邊,其中藉由該上端部、下端部以及後端部而形成大略三角形狀。The present invention provides a knee support device having a pressing plate for pressing a knee joint on the outer side and/or the inner side of the knee joint, and fixing the pressing plate to the fixing portion of the knee joint, wherein the pressing plate has: a pressing edge of the pressing plate, the shape being a side corresponding to a curved side of the inner end edge of the kneecap and/or an edge of the outer end edge; and an upper end portion and a lower end portion of the curved side of the pressing plate toward the rear side of the knee joint, and Two sides of the rear end portion of the mountain shape are formed in the peripheral portion of the knee joint slit, wherein the upper end portion, the lower end portion, and the rear end portion form a substantially triangular shape.
按壓板係相接於膝蓋骨之外側端緣彎曲的邊且/或是內側端緣彎曲的邊,在按壓後端部的關節裂隙部的附近的狀態下,而固定膝關節。因此,在伸展或甚至為彎曲時,膝用支撐裝置的該按壓板可持續的密合於膝蓋骨以及關節裂隙部,而提供使膝關節在安定狀態下而步行、輔助運動、預防變形及骨刺形成、指壓、按摩之效果。且,藉由使用本發明之膝用支撐裝置,可有效壓制膝關節之彎曲、伸展、內旋、外旋運動時半月板之移動,而可使半月板損傷發生率顯著的減少。苦惱於半月板損傷的後遺症的患者,在使用本發明的膝用支撐裝置下,可獲得大大減低痛苦的效果。The pressing plate is attached to the side where the outer end edge of the kneecap is curved and/or the side where the inner end edge is curved, and the knee joint is fixed in a state where the joint crack portion of the rear end portion is pressed. Therefore, when stretched or even bent, the pressing plate of the knee supporting device can be closely adhered to the kneecap and the joint fissure portion, thereby providing walking, assisting movement, preventing deformation and bone formation in the stable state of the knee joint. The effect of acupressure and massage. Moreover, by using the knee support device of the present invention, the movement of the meniscus during bending, stretching, internal rotation, and external rotation of the knee joint can be effectively suppressed, and the incidence of meniscus injury can be significantly reduced. A patient who suffers from the sequelae of meniscus injury can obtain a greatly reduced pain effect by using the knee support device of the present invention.
[1.第一實施例][1. First embodiment]
1.1結構1.1 Structure
參照第1圖,其為根據本發明之第一實施例的膝用支撐裝置的整體構成圖。膝用支撐裝置1包含按壓板2及安裝該按壓板2而固定膝關節之固定部3。Referring to Fig. 1, there is shown an overall configuration of a knee supporting device according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The knee support device 1 includes a pressing plate 2 and a fixing portion 3 to which the pressing plate 2 is attached to fix the knee joint.
如第1圖所示,該按壓板2包含:按壓板彎曲邊21,其形狀為對應於膝蓋骨之內側端緣彎曲的邊且/或外側端緣彎曲的邊;形成該按壓板彎曲邊21的上端部22與下端部23;以及在膝關節裂隙處而面向彎曲之凸側方向所形成之山形24之二個邊25與26,而由該三邊所構成之整體形狀係成略微三角形狀。As shown in FIG. 1, the pressing plate 2 includes: a pressing plate bending edge 21 having a shape corresponding to a side curved and/or an outer edge of the knee end of the knee bone; a curved edge 21 of the pressing plate is formed. The upper end portion 22 and the lower end portion 23; and the two sides 25 and 26 of the mountain shape 24 formed in the direction of the convex side of the knee at the knee joint crack, and the overall shape formed by the three sides is formed into a slightly triangular shape.
按壓板2為直接正向接觸膝關節,且係正向地自外側且/或是內側而按壓膝關節。為了將按壓力施加至關節裂隙部,不適合使用容易變形或具有伸縮性的材料。較佳者為使用具有一定剛性及柔軟性適合於膝關節的材料,最好能適應於膝關節的伸縮。可使用的材料有例如硬質橡膠、硬質塑膠、橡膠、塑膠、厚布或是皮革、彈性橡膠、硬質玻璃纖維等,但是亦可使用石膏之整體硬質材料。且因為按壓板2係正對向於膝關節之內側且/或是外側,因此藉由具有上述程度柔軟度之材料構成,而在直接觸碰膝關節側邊時,沿著該膝關節之形狀的該正接面成為略球面形狀,而成為適合於膝關節。The pressing plate 2 is a direct positive contact knee joint, and presses the knee joint from the outside and/or the inside in a positive direction. In order to apply a pressing force to the joint crack portion, it is not suitable to use a material that is easily deformed or stretched. Preferably, a material having a certain rigidity and flexibility suitable for the knee joint is used, and it is preferably adapted to the expansion and contraction of the knee joint. Materials that can be used are, for example, hard rubber, hard plastic, rubber, plastic, thick cloth or leather, elastic rubber, hard glass fiber, etc., but it is also possible to use a solid hard material of gypsum. And because the pressing plate 2 is directly opposite to the inner side of the knee joint and/or the outer side, it is formed by a material having the above degree of softness, and the shape of the knee joint along the side of the knee joint when it is directly contacted The positive interface becomes a slightly spherical shape and becomes suitable for the knee joint.
固定部3為由連接上端部22及後端部24的帶狀體、及連接下端部23及後端部24的帶狀體而構成。為方便,將連接上端部22及後端部24之帶狀體稱為上帶體31,連接下端部23及後端部24之帶狀體稱為下帶體32。當將膝用支撐裝置1裝戴於膝關節時,下帶體32位於膝蓋正後方的一部分稱為中間帶體33。The fixing portion 3 is constituted by a strip-shaped body that connects the upper end portion 22 and the rear end portion 24, and a strip-shaped body that connects the lower end portion 23 and the rear end portion 24. For convenience, the strip-shaped body connecting the upper end portion 22 and the rear end portion 24 is referred to as an upper belt body 31, and the strip-shaped body connecting the lower end portion 23 and the rear end portion 24 is referred to as a lower belt body 32. When the knee support device 1 is attached to the knee joint, a portion of the lower belt body 32 located directly behind the knee is referred to as an intermediate belt body 33.
圖中所示的按壓板2設有穿孔,並使藉由有彈性的橡膠形成的帶狀體穿過,如此則可形成固定構件34而可連接。The pressing plate 2 shown in the drawing is provided with perforations, and a strip-shaped body formed of elastic rubber is passed through, so that the fixing member 34 can be formed to be connectable.
[1-2效果][1-2 effect]
[1-2-1在通常的捲繞附著狀態中的作用][1-2-1 Effect in Normal Winding Attachment State]
第2圖為根據本發明之第一實施例之膝用支撐裝置包覆於膝關節時的側視圖。膝用支撐裝置1包覆於大腿骨A、脛骨B、膝蓋骨C、腓骨D、及膝關節裂隙部X。Fig. 2 is a side view of the knee support device according to the first embodiment of the present invention when it is wrapped around a knee joint. The knee support device 1 is wrapped around the thigh bone A, the tibia B, the knee bone C, the tibia D, and the knee joint fissure portion X.
[(1)按壓板的作用][(1) The role of the pressing plate]
於第2圖中,上端部22及下端部23之間的邊係沿著膝蓋骨C的內側彎曲,並沿著膝蓋骨C的內側固定於膝關節。In Fig. 2, the side between the upper end portion 22 and the lower end portion 23 is curved along the inner side of the kneecap C, and is fixed to the knee joint along the inner side of the kneecap C.
下端部23直接接觸於膝蓋骨C下方的脛骨B。上端部22直接接觸膝蓋骨C的上方。後端部24自膝關節側方直接接觸膝關節裂隙部X的後側端。且上端部22、下端部23及後端部24所形成的按壓板2接觸膝關節的形狀約略為球面。The lower end portion 23 is in direct contact with the tibia B below the kneecap C. The upper end portion 22 directly contacts the upper portion of the kneecap C. The rear end portion 24 directly contacts the rear side end of the knee joint fracture portion X from the side of the knee joint. Further, the shape of the pressing plate 2 formed by the upper end portion 22, the lower end portion 23, and the rear end portion 24 in contact with the knee joint is approximately spherical.
按壓板2不只能夠以點壓式按壓膝關節,且能覆蓋膝關節之整體,對於大腿骨內側部Aa(或是大腿骨外側部Ab)及脛骨內側部Ba(或是脛骨外側部Bb)的關節面位置為最適當的位置,而可有效地改善疼痛。如此,按壓板2不只有效地按壓痛點,亦可有效地按壓為膝痛好發部的包含關節空間的膝關節裂隙部X。The pressing plate 2 can not only press the knee joint in a point pressure manner, but also cover the entire knee joint, for the inner side of the thigh bone Aa (or the outer thigh bone Ab) and the inner side of the tibia (or the outer side of the tibia Bb). The position of the articular surface is the most appropriate position, which can effectively improve the pain. In this way, the pressing plate 2 can effectively press the knee joint fissure portion X including the joint space as the knee pain-prone portion, not only by effectively pressing the pain point.
膝蓋骨C在膝關節彎曲時而向大腿骨下端部附近為大幅滑動,因此按壓板2係連動於此種膝蓋骨C之運動,密貼於膝蓋骨C而朝著大腿骨大幅滑動。如此,在膝關節進行彎曲伸展動作下,藉由該按壓板一邊按壓而大幅滑動,而如同進行指壓、針灸、按摩,而可防止與治療膝關節疼痛。The kneecap C slides toward the lower end of the thigh bone when the knee joint is bent. Therefore, the pressing plate 2 is interlocked with the movement of the knee bone C, and is closely attached to the knee bone C to largely slide toward the thigh bone. In this way, when the knee joint is subjected to the bending and stretching operation, the pressing plate is largely slid by pressing, and as with finger pressure, acupuncture, and massage, it is possible to prevent and treat knee pain.
[(1-3)固定部3之作用][(1-3) The role of the fixed part 3]
固定部3係為使按壓板2對於膝關節保持按壓的方式而固定。The fixing portion 3 is fixed such that the pressing plate 2 is pressed against the knee joint.
[(1-3-1)在膝關節前方之作用][(1-3-1) role in front of the knee joint]
上帶體31連接上端部22與後端部24,而在該膝用支撐裝置1穿戴於膝關節時,通過膝蓋骨C之正上方處,環繞膝關節而固定,即使膝關節彎曲伸展運動時仍然不會位置滑動,而可按壓住膝蓋骨C之正上位置。The upper belt body 31 connects the upper end portion 22 and the rear end portion 24, and when the knee support device 1 is worn on the knee joint, it is fixed around the knee joint through the knee bone C, even when the knee joint is bent and stretched. It does not slide in position, but can press the upper position of the kneecap C.
此外,下帶體32通過膝蓋骨C正下之位置環繞膝關節,即使膝關節為彎曲伸展運動時亦不會有位置滑動之情形。下帶體32連接下端部23與後端部24,而密貼於膝關節而予以施加按壓力。如此,下帶體32在按壓膝蓋骨C之下方處壓迫支撐膝關節之關節空間。Further, the lower belt body 32 surrounds the knee joint by the position immediately below the kneecap C, and there is no positional sliding even when the knee joint is bent and stretched. The lower belt body 32 connects the lower end portion 23 and the rear end portion 24, and is pressed against the knee joint to apply a pressing force. Thus, the lower belt body 32 presses the joint space supporting the knee joint at a position below the kneecap C.
[(1-3-2)在膝關節後方的作用][(1-3-2) role in the back of the knee joint]
第3圖為根據本實施例的膝用支撐裝置1裝戴於大腿骨A、脛骨B、膝蓋骨C及腓骨D所構成的膝關節的後視圖。Fig. 3 is a rear elevational view of the knee joint constituted by the knee support device 1 according to the present embodiment, which is attached to the femur A, the tibia B, the knee bone C, and the tibia D.
第4A圖及第4B圖為安裝有按壓板2之側所顯示的側視圖。第4A圖以及第4B圖分別顯示膝關節為伸展及屈曲的情況。4A and 4B are side views showing the side on which the pressing plate 2 is attached. Fig. 4A and Fig. 4B show the case where the knee joint is stretched and flexed, respectively.
當膝關節伸展時,在膝關節彎曲時,膝蓋骨C與膝蓋韌帶E會隨著脛骨B而移動。When the knee joint is stretched, the kneecap C and the knee ligament E move with the tibia B when the knee joint is bent.
下帶體32為設於膝關節的前面,且在膝蓋骨C的下方位置向上支撐膝蓋骨C。在膝關節的後面,中間帶體33能維持支撐住膝關節裂隙部X,並對膝關節裂隙部X造成壓迫的效果。The lower belt body 32 is provided on the front side of the knee joint, and supports the kneecap C upward at a position below the knee bone C. Behind the knee joint, the intermediate belt body 33 can maintain the knee joint fissure portion X and cause compression of the knee joint fissure portion X.
如第4B圖所示,當膝關節屈曲時,下方的脛骨B帶動下帶體32及中間帶體33至該脛骨B之上方而在膝關節自屈曲而再次伸展時,下帶體32及中間帶體33不會滑動至脛骨B之下方。As shown in Fig. 4B, when the knee joint is flexed, the lower tibia B drives the lower belt body 32 and the intermediate belt body 33 above the tibia B, and when the knee joint self-bucks and re-stretches, the lower belt body 32 and the middle The belt body 33 does not slide below the tibia B.
因此,膝關節能藉由伸展而使下帶體32及中間帶體33回到正常的關節裂隙的位置,如第4A圖所示。Therefore, the knee joint can return the lower belt body 32 and the intermediate belt body 33 to the position of the normal joint crack by stretching, as shown in Fig. 4A.
[1-3-3不會隨皮膚的移動及伸縮的作用][1-3-3 does not function with skin movement and expansion]
當膝關節的皮膚為屈曲時,膝蓋骨C的上部為伸展狀態,當膝關節的皮膚從伸展成為收縮狀態時,膝蓋骨C的上部的皮膚為伸展狀態。When the skin of the knee joint is flexed, the upper portion of the kneecap C is in an extended state, and when the skin of the knee joint is stretched to a contracted state, the skin on the upper portion of the kneecap C is in an extended state.
膝用支撐裝置1的按壓板2不會隨著膝關節屈伸運動時的皮膚的伸縮移動而移動,因此不容易產生膝用支撐裝置1的整體偏移。固定部3對於上端部22、下端部23及後端部24的三點保持自由隨動,因此不會受到皮膚伸縮的影響,而可以完全保持膝蓋骨C的上部及下部的位置關係。The pressing plate 2 of the knee support device 1 does not move in accordance with the telescopic movement of the skin when the knee joint flexes and contracts, and thus the overall offset of the knee support device 1 is less likely to occur. Since the fixing portion 3 is freely followed by the three points of the upper end portion 22, the lower end portion 23, and the rear end portion 24, the positional relationship between the upper portion and the lower portion of the kneecap C can be completely maintained without being affected by the skin expansion and contraction.
藉由使按壓板2的形狀形成為沿著膝蓋骨C的內側端緣彎曲的邊或是外側端緣彎曲的邊的形狀,所以於膝關節的伸展時,位在大腿骨下端的前面的Ac位置的膝蓋骨C,在屈曲時移動至大腿骨A下端的下面Ad的位置,藉此能確實維持支撐住左右的位置關係。By forming the shape of the pressing plate 2 into a side curved along the inner end edge of the kneecap C or a side curved side of the outer end edge, the position of the Ac in the front of the lower end of the femur is extended when the knee joint is stretched. The kneecap C moves to the position of the lower side Ad of the lower end of the femur bone B during flexion, whereby the positional relationship of the left and right can be surely maintained.
[1-3-4對於半月板的功用][1-3-4 for the function of the meniscus]
半月板位於膝關節的左右側,且由外側半月板及內側半月板組成。The meniscus is located on the left and right sides of the knee joint and consists of the lateral meniscus and the medial meniscus.
膝蓋骨C藉由膝蓋韌帶E而與脛骨B的距離相同,半月板密接於脛骨B。此外,藉由屈曲伸展移動而使半月板相對於大腿骨A成滑動移動。不幸地,此為半月板為滑動偏離正常位置的病症主因。The kneecap C is the same distance from the tibia B by the knee ligament E, and the meniscus is in close contact with the tibia B. In addition, the meniscus is slidably moved relative to the femur A by flexion extension movement. Unfortunately, this is the main cause of the meniscus being a deviation from normal position.
即使在進行屈曲伸展及內旋外旋的動作的情況中,藉由按壓板2以點壓的方式或是持續的方式壓迫,從而可防止半月板少許偏移的狀態下的步行或是運動,而可以減少半月板的損傷或是疼痛。Even in the case of the operation of the flexion extension and the external rotation, the pressing plate 2 is pressed by the pressure or in a continuous manner, thereby preventing walking or exercising in a state where the meniscus is slightly displaced. It can reduce the damage or pain of the meniscus.
且,藉由下帶體32及中間帶體33及下端部23及後端部24按壓關節裂隙部X,可以減少半月板的損傷或是半月板的疼痛。Further, by pressing the joint fissure portion X by the lower belt body 32 and the intermediate belt body 33, the lower end portion 23, and the rear end portion 24, it is possible to reduce the damage of the meniscus or the pain of the meniscus.
[2.第二實施例][2. Second embodiment]
第二實施例的膝用支撐裝置40為改變第一實施例的膝用支撐裝置40的按壓板2的構成。當穿戴膝用支撐裝置40時,於正接於膝關節的左右兩側設有一對按壓板。和第一實施例不同,於穿戴時整全體支撐裝置為筒狀。The knee support device 40 of the second embodiment is configured to change the pressing plate 2 of the knee support device 40 of the first embodiment. When the knee support device 40 is worn, a pair of pressing plates are provided on the right and left sides of the knee joint. Unlike the first embodiment, the entire support device is cylindrical when worn.
[2-1構成][2-1 composition]
膝關節的膝蓋骨C的兩側設有一對按壓板2a、2b,另設有用以固定該按壓板2a、2b於膝關節的固定部4。按壓板2a、2b的整體構成與上端部22、下端部23、後端部24的名稱等與第一實施例相同。A pair of pressing plates 2a, 2b are provided on both sides of the kneecap C of the knee joint, and a fixing portion 4 for fixing the pressing plates 2a, 2b to the knee joint is further provided. The overall configuration of the pressing plates 2a, 2b and the names of the upper end portion 22, the lower end portion 23, and the rear end portion 24 are the same as in the first embodiment.
按壓板2a、2b對著固定部4形成按壓板彎曲邊21,且上端部22及下端部23相合地設置。當裝戴於膝關節時,固定部4隨著膝關節的屈曲伸展而移動。而按壓板2a、2b以其一部份而固定於固定部4,而上端部22、下端部23及後端部24非固定於固定部4,而可為某種程度的隨動。The pressing plates 2a and 2b form the pressing plate bending side 21 against the fixing portion 4, and the upper end portion 22 and the lower end portion 23 are disposed to coincide with each other. When worn on the knee joint, the fixed portion 4 moves as the knee joint flexes and stretches.
