Description

コルセットcorset
　本開示はコルセットに関し、特に腰椎疾患等において使用するコルセットに関する。 The present disclosure relates to a corset, and particularly relates to a corset used for lumbar spine disease and the like.
　腰椎疾患においては、腰椎部を支持、固定する体幹装具（コルセット）が用いられる。コルセットは、装着することにより腹腔の内圧を高め、これにより脊柱前方を支えて腰椎にかかる負荷を軽減する。このため、通常のコルセットは腹部及び腰椎部を圧迫して腰部の動きを制限し体幹を固定する。 In lumbar spine disease, a trunk orthosis (corset) that supports and fixes the lumbar spine is used. The corset, when worn, increases the internal pressure of the abdominal cavity, thereby supporting the anterior spine and reducing the load on the lumbar spine. For this reason, a normal corset compresses the abdomen and the lumbar spine, restricting the movement of the lumbar region and fixing the trunk.
　通常のコルセットはある程度伸縮性のあるベルトを体幹に巻き付けて、圧迫と固定とを行う。通常のコルセットは、下腹部が圧迫されるため、装着者に大きな不快感を与える。また、食事や起坐などの日常生活の障害となる場合もある。 は In a normal corset, a stretchable belt is wound around the trunk to compress and fix. A normal corset gives the wearer great discomfort because the lower abdomen is squeezed. In addition, it may interfere with daily life such as eating and sitting.
　不快感や日常生活の障害を取り除くために、プレート等の硬質の構造を組合せたり、胸部にも支点を設けたりすることが検討されている（例えば、特許文献１を参照。）。 (4) In order to remove discomfort and obstacles in daily life, it has been studied to combine a rigid structure such as a plate or to provide a fulcrum on the chest (for example, see Patent Document 1).
特開２０１２－１３０３８８号公報JP 2012-130388 A
　しかしながら、その原理上、従来のコルセットは下腹部を圧迫せざるを得ない。このため、装着時の不快感等を取り除く効果は極めて限定的である。 そ の However, in principle, conventional corsets have to compress the lower abdomen. For this reason, the effect of removing discomfort or the like at the time of wearing is extremely limited.
　本開示の課題は、下腹部の圧迫によらずに体幹を固定することが可能なコルセットを実現できるようにすることである。 課題 An object of the present disclosure is to realize a corset that can fix the trunk without relying on compression of the lower abdomen.

The wearer's trunk (torso) is supported at three points by a first contact portion 111, a second contact portion 112, and a third contact portion 113.
　本実施形態のコルセットは、左右の大腿骨大転子と、腰椎とを３点支持し、腰椎にかかる力の一部を左右の大腿骨大転子に分散させることにより、腰椎にかかる負荷を軽減する。このため、下腹部を圧迫しなくても体幹を支えることができ、下腹部の圧迫による不快感を大幅に低減できる。 The corset of the present embodiment supports the left and right greater trochanters and the lumbar vertebra at three points, and disperses a part of the force applied to the lumbar vertebra to the left and right greater trochanters to reduce the load on the lumbar vertebra. To reduce. Therefore, the trunk can be supported without compressing the lower abdomen, and discomfort due to compression of the lower abdomen can be significantly reduced.
　図２に示すように、本実施形態において、フレーム１０１は、高さ方向に伸びるスリット状の開口部１０２ａを有する断面Ｃ字状の筒体である本体部１０２と、本体部１０２の下方に突出する略三角形状の２つのウイング部１０８とを有している。本体部１０２は、開口部１０２ａを腹側にして胴部に装着する。本体部１０２は、人の胴部の形に対応して、周方向中央部及び高さ方向中央部がくびれた形状とすることが好ましい。 As shown in FIG. 2, in the present embodiment, the frame 101 includes a main body 102 that is a C-shaped cylindrical body having a slit-shaped opening 102 a extending in the height direction, and protrudes below the main body 102. And two substantially triangular wing portions 108. The main body 102 is mounted on the body with the opening 102a on the abdomen side. The main body 102 preferably has a constricted shape at the center in the circumferential direction and at the center in the height, corresponding to the shape of the torso of a person.
　第１の当接部１１１、第２の当接部１１２及び第３の当接部１１３は、それぞれフレーム１０１の内周面に設けられ、対応する胴部の体表面に当接する。第１の当接部１１１は、本体部１０２の上部で、周方向の中央部に設けられており、第２の当接部１１２及び第３の当接部１１３は、それぞれウイング部１０８の中央部付近に設けられている。 The first contact portion 111, the second contact portion 112, and the third contact portion 113 are provided on the inner peripheral surface of the frame 101, respectively, and contact the corresponding body surface of the body. The first contact portion 111 is provided at the center in the circumferential direction at the upper part of the main body portion 102, and the second contact portion 112 and the third contact portion 113 are respectively provided at the center of the wing portion 108. It is provided near the section.
　フレーム１０１は、体幹を３点支持することができる程度の硬質の材料により形成されている。また、開口部１０２ａを広げて胴部に装着できる程度の柔軟性を有していることが好ましい。具体的に、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン、ポリエステル、ポリアミド、ポリ塩化ビニル、ポリカーボネート、ポリアミドエラストラマー及びポリイミド等の樹脂により形成することができる。このため、フレーム１０１は、装着していない状態において自立し、３つの当接部の相対的な位置関係が変動しない。 The frame 101 is formed of a hard material capable of supporting the trunk at three points. Further, it is preferable that the opening 102a has such flexibility that the opening 102a can be widened and attached to the trunk. Specifically, it can be formed of a resin such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, polyamide, polyvinyl chloride, polycarbonate, polyamide elastomer, and polyimide. For this reason, the frame 101 becomes independent in a state where it is not mounted, and the relative positional relationship of the three contact portions does not change.
　本実施形態において、フレーム１０１は、本体部１０２の開口部１０２ａの間隔を調整し、第２の当接部１１２及び第３の当接部１１３が左右の大腿骨大転子へ当接する力を調整すると共に、本体部１０２の胴部に対する位置を固定する、調整部１０３を有している。本実施形態において調整部１０３は、本体部１０２の開口部１０２ａを覆うプレート１０５と、プレート１０５と本体部１０２とを連結するベルト１０６とを有している。ベルト１０６を締めることにより、Ｃ字状の本体部１０２が変形するため、第２の当接部１１２と第３の当接部１１３との径方向の間隔を調整することができる。 In the present embodiment, the frame 101 adjusts the interval between the openings 102a of the main body 102, and increases the force with which the second abutment portion 112 and the third abutment portion 113 abut on the left and right greater trochanters of the femur. It has an adjusting unit 103 that adjusts and fixes the position of the main body 102 with respect to the trunk. In the present embodiment, the adjustment unit 103 includes a plate 105 that covers the opening 102a of the main body 102, and a belt 106 that connects the plate 105 and the main body 102. By tightening the belt 106, the C-shaped main body 102 is deformed, so that the radial gap between the second contact portion 112 and the third contact portion 113 can be adjusted.
　本実施形態において、プレート１０５は腹腔の内圧を高めるために下腹部を圧迫するものではなく、第２の当接部１１２と第３の当接部１１３との間隔を調整して、左右の大腿骨大転子に適度な力により当接させるためのものである。これにより、腰椎にかかる力の一部を第１の当接部１１１により受け止め、第２の当接部１１２及び第３の当接部１１３を介して腰骨に分散させることを可能とする。また、装着者の動きによりフレーム１０１の装着位置がずれたり、フレーム１０１が外れたりしないようにすることができる。 In the present embodiment, the plate 105 does not press the lower abdomen to increase the internal pressure of the abdominal cavity, but adjusts the interval between the second contact portion 112 and the third contact portion 113 so as to adjust the left and right thighs. It is intended to abut on the greater trochanter with moderate force. Thereby, a part of the force applied to the lumbar vertebra is received by the first contact portion 111 and can be dispersed to the lumbar bone through the second contact portion 112 and the third contact portion 113. Further, it is possible to prevent the mounting position of the frame 101 from being shifted or the frame 101 from coming off due to the movement of the wearer.
　プレート１０５は装着者の体表面と密着している必要はなく、プレート１０５と体表面との間には適度な隙間を設けることができる。プレート１０５と体表面との間に隙間を設けることにより、プレート１０５を支えとして頼ることによる装着者の筋力低下を生じにくくすることもできる。 The plate 105 does not need to be in close contact with the body surface of the wearer, and an appropriate gap can be provided between the plate 105 and the body surface. By providing a gap between the plate 105 and the body surface, it is possible to make it difficult for the wearer's muscular strength to decrease due to relying on the plate 105 as a support.
　本実施形態において、プレート１０５は両側部に段差部１０５ａを有しており、プレート１０５における段差部１０５ａの間の部分の周方向長さは、本体部１０２の開口部１０２ａの周方向長さよりも少し短く設計されている。このため、ベルト１０６を締めると、段差部１０５ａと本体部１０２の端部とが当接する位置まで本体部１０２が変形し第２の当接部１１２と第３の当接部１１３との間隔が小さくなる。しかし、それ以上は変形せず、第２の当接部１１２及び第３の当接部１１３が腰骨に当接する力が大きくなりすぎたり、プレート１０５が腹部を圧迫したりしないようになっている。但し、段差部１０５ａを設けない構成とすることもできる。例えば、プレート１０５と本体部１０２とが互いに相補的な傾斜面や曲面を有し、その部分が当接するようにして、閉まりすぎを防ぐような構成とすることもできる。 In the present embodiment, the plate 105 has step portions 105a on both sides, and the circumferential length of a portion between the step portions 105a in the plate 105 is larger than the circumferential length of the opening portion 102a of the main body portion 102. Designed to be a little shorter. For this reason, when the belt 106 is tightened, the main body 102 is deformed to a position where the step portion 105a and the end of the main body 102 are in contact with each other, and the distance between the second contact portion 112 and the third contact portion 113 is reduced. Become smaller. However, the second contact portion 112 and the third contact portion 113 are not deformed any more, so that the force of the second contact portion 112 and the third contact portion 113 contacting the hip bone is not too large, and the plate 105 does not compress the abdomen. . However, a configuration in which the step portion 105a is not provided may be adopted. For example, the plate 105 and the main body 102 may have mutually complementary inclined surfaces or curved surfaces, and the portions may be brought into contact with each other to prevent over-closing.
　本実施形態においてプレート１０５と本体部１０２とを連結するベルト１０６は、面ファスナーを有しており、長さの調節とプレート１０５の取り外しとが容易にできる。ベルト１０６の長さの調節はどのような構成により実現してもよく、例えばロックストラップ等により実現することもできる。また、プレート１０５の一方の端部を蝶番等により本体部１０２に固定し、他方の端部を長さ調節が可能なベルト等により本体部１０２と連結する構成とすることもできる。さらに、プレート１０５及び本体部１０２のそれぞれに、互いに係合するバックルを有する長さが調節可能なベルト等を設け、これを用いてプレート１０５と本体部１０２とを連結することもできる。 ベ ル ト In the present embodiment, the belt 106 connecting the plate 105 and the main body 102 has a hook-and-loop fastener, so that the length can be easily adjusted and the plate 105 can be easily removed. The adjustment of the length of the belt 106 may be realized by any configuration, for example, by a lock strap or the like. Alternatively, one end of the plate 105 may be fixed to the main body 102 by a hinge or the like, and the other end may be connected to the main body 102 by a belt or the like whose length can be adjusted. Further, each of the plate 105 and the main body 102 may be provided with an adjustable-length belt or the like having a buckle that engages with each other, and the plate 105 and the main body 102 may be connected using this.
　なお、ベルト１０６の取り回し等を調整することにより、プレート１０５の固定及び調整の操作を、装着者の体の正面において行う構成とすることもできる。このような構成とすれば、装着者は体を横に捻ることなく操作をすることができるので、腰痛等の症状を有し体を横に捻ることが困難な装着者でも容易にプレート１０５の固定及び調整を容易にすることができる。 By adjusting the handling of the belt 106, the operation of fixing and adjusting the plate 105 can be performed in front of the wearer's body. With such a configuration, the wearer can operate without twisting the body sideways, so that even a wearer who has a symptom such as low back pain and has difficulty twisting the body sideways can easily use the plate 105. Fixing and adjustment can be facilitated.
　プレート１０５と本体部１０２とを調節可能に連結できれば、ベルトに限らず、紐又はワイヤ等を用いることもできる。この場合には、靴紐を締めるために用いられているような、ラッチ機構とダイヤルとを組合せ、ダイヤルを回すことにより紐又はワイヤの長さを調節できる調節機構を設けることもできる。さらに、プレート１０５と本体部１０２とをスナップボタンやカギホック等を用いて連結する構成とすることもできる。 As long as the plate 105 and the main body 102 can be connected in an adjustable manner, not only a belt but also a string or a wire can be used. In this case, a latch mechanism and a dial, such as those used for tightening shoelaces, can be provided with an adjusting mechanism that can adjust the length of the string or wire by turning the dial. Further, the plate 105 and the main body 102 may be connected by using a snap button, a key hook, or the like.
　また、調整部はプレートを有していない構成とすることもできる。例えば、開口部１０２ａの両端部を長さが調節可能なベルト等により直接接続する構成としてもよい。プレートを用いない場合には、ある程度幅広のベルトを用いることが好ましいが、細いベルト、紐又はワイヤ等を用いることもできる。 調整 Also, the adjustment unit may be configured to have no plate. For example, both ends of the opening 102a may be directly connected by a belt or the like whose length is adjustable. When a plate is not used, it is preferable to use a belt having a certain width, but a thin belt, a string, a wire, or the like may be used.
　本実施形態において、本体部１０２は一体成形されている。一体成形すれば本体部１０２の形成が容易となる。しかし、所定の強度を維持できるのであれば、本体部１０２を複数の部材を連結して形成することもできる。この場合、本体部１０２を分解可能とすることもでき、このようにすれば収納が容易となる。 に お い て In the present embodiment, the main body 102 is integrally formed. The integral molding facilitates the formation of the main body 102. However, if the predetermined strength can be maintained, the main body 102 can be formed by connecting a plurality of members. In this case, the main body 102 can be disassembled, which facilitates storage.
　例えば、本体部１０２を第１の当接部１１１を含む第１の部分、第２の当接部１１２を含む第２の部分及び第３の当接部１１３を含む第３の部分に分割することができる。この場合、第１の部分と第２の部分及び第３の部分とにそれぞれ連結部を設けて、一体に組み立てられるようにすることができる。連結部は、例えば各部分の側端部に設けられた互いに嵌合する凹部と凸部とすることができる。また、各部分の側端部に面ファスナーを取り付け、取り付けた面ファスナーにより互いを連結するようにすることもできる。 For example, the main body 102 is divided into a first portion including the first contact portion 111, a second portion including the second contact portion 112, and a third portion including the third contact portion 113. be able to. In this case, the first portion, the second portion, and the third portion may be provided with connecting portions, respectively, so that they can be integrally assembled. The connecting portion may be, for example, a concave portion and a convex portion which are provided at a side end portion of each portion and are fitted to each other. Also, a hook-and-loop fastener may be attached to a side end portion of each portion, and the attached hook-and-loop fasteners may connect each other.
　図５に示すように、第１の部分１２１と第２の部分１２２及び第３の部分１２３とを直接連結するのではなく、柔軟なメッシュ生地等からなる帯状の連結部材１２４を介して連結することもできる。このようにすれば、各部分が互いに連結された状態でも、連結部材１２４の部分で折り畳んで収納することができる。図５においては、連結部材１２４の両側部を固着部とし、固着部を各部分に接着又は融着等により固着させて、３つの部分が互いに分離しないようにした例を示している。このようにすれば、３つの部分を間違えて連結することがなく、３つの部分が使用中に不用意に分離したり、３つの部分の位置関係がずれたりしにくくできる。但し、３つの部分は互いに分離できる構成とすることもできる。 As shown in FIG. 5, the first portion 121 is not directly connected to the second portion 122 and the third portion 123 but is connected via a band-shaped connecting member 124 made of a flexible mesh cloth or the like. You can also. In this way, even when the respective parts are connected to each other, the parts can be folded and stored at the connecting member 124. FIG. 5 shows an example in which both sides of the connecting member 124 are fixed portions, and the fixed portions are fixed to the respective portions by adhesion or fusion so that the three portions are not separated from each other. With this configuration, the three portions are not connected by mistake, and the three portions can be prevented from being inadvertently separated during use and the positional relationship between the three portions can be prevented from shifting. However, the three parts may be configured to be separable from each other.
　図５において、１本の帯状の連結部材１２４が、各部分の上端から下端まで連続して連結している例を示したが、連結部材の長さは各部分の上端から下端まで達するものでなくてもよい。また、複数の短い連結部材を間隔をおいて配置して各部分を連結してもよい。なお、連結部材１２４は、メッシュ生地に限らず、第１の部分１２１、第２の部分１２２及び第３の部分１２３よりも柔軟な材料で形成することができる。また、本体部１０２を３つ以上の部分に分割することもできる。 FIG. 5 shows an example in which one belt-shaped connecting member 124 is continuously connected from the upper end to the lower end of each part. However, the length of the connecting member extends from the upper end to the lower end of each part. It is not necessary. Also, a plurality of short connecting members may be arranged at intervals to connect each part. Note that the connecting member 124 is not limited to the mesh cloth, and can be formed of a material that is more flexible than the first portion 121, the second portion 122, and the third portion 123. Further, the main body 102 can be divided into three or more parts.
　本実施形態において、第１の当接部１１１は本体部の内面に設けられた凸部であり、第２の当接部１１２及び第３の当接部１１３は、各ウイング部１０８の内面に設けられた曲面である。各当接部は、当接箇所における疼痛等の発生を抑えるために、面として必要な箇所に当接するように設計することが好ましい。また、個人の専用に設計するのではなく、汎用とする場合には、各当接部は当接位置の個人差を吸収できる程度の範囲に拡がっていることが好ましい。 In the present embodiment, the first contact portion 111 is a convex portion provided on the inner surface of the main body portion, and the second contact portion 112 and the third contact portion 113 are provided on the inner surface of each wing portion 108. It is a provided curved surface. It is preferable that each contact portion is designed to contact a necessary portion as a surface in order to suppress occurrence of pain or the like at the contact portion. In addition, when the contact portion is designed not for exclusive use of an individual but for general use, it is preferable that each contact portion is expanded to a range that can absorb the individual difference in the contact position.
　第１の当接部１１１は、治療の対象とする腰椎が特定されている場合は、その位置に当接させることが好ましい。一般的な用途であれば、治療対象となることが最も多い、第３腰椎～第５腰椎の間に当接させることが好ましく、第４腰椎～第５腰椎の間に当接させることがさらに好ましい。 When the lumbar vertebra to be treated is specified, it is preferable that the first contact portion 111 is brought into contact with that position. For general use, it is preferable to make contact between the third lumbar vertebra and the fifth lumbar vertebra, which is the object of treatment most often, and more preferably to make contact between the fourth lumbar vertebra and the fifth lumbar vertebra. preferable.
　本実施形態のコルセットは、本体部１０２の下方に突出する２つのウイング部１０８を有している。本実施形態において、それぞれのウイング部１０８は、下方に向かって次第に幅が狭くなる略三角形状であり、中央部が装着者の大腿骨大転子と当接する第２の当接部１１２及び第３の当接部１１３となるように設けられている。 コ ル The corset of the present embodiment has two wings 108 projecting below the main body 102. In the present embodiment, each wing portion 108 has a substantially triangular shape whose width gradually decreases downward, and the second contact portion 112 and the second contact portion 112 whose central portions abut against the greater trochanter of the wearer. 3 is provided so as to be the contact portion 113.
　ウイング部１０８を、大腿骨大転子を中心にして装着者の腸骨を覆うような形状とすることにより、コルセットの左右のぶれを生じにくくし、より安定して体幹を３点支持することが可能となる。ウイング部１０８の形状は、腸骨を覆うようにできれば、略三角形状に限らず、方形状や半円形状等としてもよい。 By forming the wing portion 108 so as to cover the iliac of the wearer centering on the greater trochanter of the femur, it is difficult for the corset to move right and left, and the trunk is more stably supported at three points. It becomes possible. The shape of the wing portion 108 is not limited to a substantially triangular shape as long as it can cover the iliac bone, and may be a square shape, a semicircular shape, or the like.
　大腿骨大転子と当接する第２の当接部１１２及び第３の当接部１１３を、ウイング部１０８の中央部に設けることにより、体幹をより安定して支持、固定することができる。但し、第２の当接部１１２及び第３の当接部１１３はウイング部１０８のどこに設けられていてもよく、例えばウイング部１０８の先端部に設けることもできる。 By providing the second contact portion 112 and the third contact portion 113 that contact the greater trochanter at the center of the wing portion 108, the trunk can be more stably supported and fixed. . However, the second contact portion 112 and the third contact portion 113 may be provided anywhere on the wing portion 108, and may be provided at the tip of the wing portion 108, for example.
　ウイング部１０８は、本体部１０２と一体に形成することができるが、本体部１０２とは別に成形し、後から本体部１０２に取り付けることも可能である。なお、ウイング部１０８を設けず、本体部１０２全体が下方に延びるようにして、第２の当接部及び第３の当接部を設けることもできる。但し、左右に別れたウイング部１０８を設けることにより、本体部１０２全体が大腿骨大転子の位置まで延びている場合よりも体の動きを妨げにくくすることができる。 The wing portion 108 can be formed integrally with the main body portion 102, but can also be formed separately from the main body portion 102 and attached to the main body portion 102 later. The second contact portion and the third contact portion may be provided so that the entire main body 102 extends downward without providing the wing portion 108. However, by providing the left and right wing portions 108, the movement of the body can be made more difficult to hinder than when the entire main body 102 extends to the position of the greater trochanter of the femur.
　フレーム１０１の内面における第１の当接部１１１、第２の当接部１１２及び第３の当接部１１３だけが装着者の体表面に当接すればよく、他の部分は体表面に当接している必要はない。但し、第１の当接部１１１、第２の当接部１１２及び第３の当接部１１３以外に体表面に当接する部分が生じてもよい。例えば、第２の当接部１１２及び第３の当接部１１３が大腿骨大転子に当接する場合に、上後上部腸骨棘又は上前上部腸骨棘と当接する第４及び第５の当接部を設けることができる。 Only the first contact portion 111, the second contact portion 112, and the third contact portion 113 on the inner surface of the frame 101 need only be in contact with the body surface of the wearer, and the other portions are in contact with the body surface. You don't have to. However, a portion that contacts the body surface other than the first contact portion 111, the second contact portion 112, and the third contact portion 113 may be generated. For example, when the second abutment portion 112 and the third abutment portion 113 abut on the greater trochanter of the femur, the fourth and fifth abutments on the upper posterior upper iliac spine or the upper anterior upper iliac spine. Can be provided.
　本実施形態において、フレーム１０１に複数の開口部を設けている。開口部を設けることにより、コルセットを装着した際の通気性を向上させることができる。開口部は必要とする強度を保てる限り自由に配置することができる。また、本実施形態において、開口部が意匠性を発揮するようにした例を示しているが、通気性を確保できれば開口部の形状は限定されない。 In this embodiment, the frame 101 has a plurality of openings. By providing the opening, air permeability when the corset is mounted can be improved. The openings can be freely arranged as long as the required strength can be maintained. Further, in the present embodiment, an example is shown in which the opening exerts a design, but the shape of the opening is not limited as long as air permeability can be ensured.
　本体部１０２は、第１の当接部１１１が設けられたＣ字状の上部帯と、ウイング部１０８が接続されたＣ字状の下部帯とが、複数の柱状部により接続された構成とすることもできる。この場合、上部帯と下部帯との間に１つ又は複数のＣ字状の中間帯を設けることもできる。 The main body 102 has a configuration in which a C-shaped upper band provided with the first contact portion 111 and a C-shaped lower band connected to the wing 108 are connected by a plurality of columnar portions. You can also. In this case, one or more C-shaped intermediate bands may be provided between the upper band and the lower band.
　本実施形態のコルセットは、装着者の体型の個人差をある程度許容できるので、本体部１０２の径及び高さが異なるものを数種類用意すれば、大部分の装着者に適用することができる。しかし、各当接部の位置を、装着者の体型に応じて設計することもできる。この場合には、例えば装着者の腰部のＸ線写真又はＣＴ写真等から、腰椎及び腰骨の位置を特定し、それに合わせて設計することができる。 コ ル Since the corset of the present embodiment can tolerate individual differences in the body shape of the wearer to some extent, it is possible to apply it to most wearers by preparing several types having different diameters and heights of the main body 102. However, the position of each contact portion can be designed according to the body type of the wearer. In this case, the positions of the lumbar vertebra and the lumbar bone can be specified from, for example, an X-ray photograph or a CT photograph of the waist of the wearer, and the lumbar spine and the lumbar can be designed accordingly.
　本実施形態のコルセットは、硬質のフレームを有しているが、腹部全体を圧迫することで骨折部の固定等を行う従来の硬性のコルセットとは異なり、腰椎の位置に当接する第１の当接部並びに左右の大腿骨大転子の位置にそれぞれ当接する第２の当接部及び第３の当接部の３点で支持、固定するため、下腹部の圧迫によらずに体幹を固定でき、装着時の不快感等を大幅に低減できる。また、従来の硬性のコルセットは、体表面に合わせて圧迫固定するため、コルセットの面積を大きくする必要がある。このため充分な強度を得るために、金属製とする場合が多く、装着者に大きな重量の負担を強いることになる。一方、本実施形態のコルセットは、３点で支持、固定するため、軽量にすることが可能であり、重量負担を低減するという効果も得られる。 Although the corset of the present embodiment has a hard frame, unlike a conventional hard corset in which a fracture is fixed by pressing the entire abdomen, the first abutment that contacts the position of the lumbar vertebra is provided. In order to support and fix at the three points of the contact part and the second contact part and the third contact part that contact the position of the greater trochanter of the left and right femurs, respectively, the trunk is not pressed by the lower abdomen. It can be fixed and discomfort at the time of mounting can be greatly reduced. In addition, since the conventional rigid corset is pressed and fixed in accordance with the body surface, it is necessary to increase the area of the corset. For this reason, in order to obtain sufficient strength, it is often made of metal, which imposes a heavy weight burden on the wearer. On the other hand, since the corset of the present embodiment is supported and fixed at three points, it is possible to reduce the weight and to obtain the effect of reducing the weight burden.
　本開示のコルセットは、下腹部の圧迫によらずに体幹を固定でき、腰椎疾患等において用いるコルセットとして有用である。 コ ル The corset of the present disclosure can fix the trunk without relying on compression of the lower abdomen, and is useful as a corset used in lumbar spine disease and the like.
