Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] (Industrial application field) The present invention relates to a mat for preventing bedsores.

(Conventional technology) When people lie on the bed for long periods of time to receive treatment for an illness, the flow of blood to areas of the body that is difficult to move is impaired, resulting in pressure sores, which, as they worsen, can lead to skin tears and ulcers. do.

The bed sore prevention mat used in the technology to prevent this is a double donut circle, which is made of rubber or silk cloth and has air or cotton clumps sealed inside it.

(Problems to be solved by the invention) Conventional products come into soft contact with the skin surface and have poor breathability.Also, because they have a fixed shape, it is difficult to use them on different affected areas, and it is difficult to put them on and take them off. There was a problem that it was inconvenient and crowded.

The present invention is intended to solve these problems.

(Means for solving the problem) The present invention creates a horseshoe-shaped bag whose upper fabric is made of terry cloth and whose lower fabric is made of net fabric, and a synthetic resin filler with special dimensions is kept in a constant bulge inside. It is characterized in that the left and right arcuate tongues can be freely bent and crossed.

(Function) Open the left and right horseshoe-shaped tongues to an appropriate degree,
While bending or intersecting vertically, horizontally, and horizontally, place it in contact with the appropriate place on the body.

(Example) Figure 1 is an overall perspective view of the product of the present invention, and Figure 2 is an X-
The X-ray sectional view and FIG. 3 are perspective views of parts showing the shape of the filler.

Reference numeral 1 denotes a bag body for bedsore mat according to the present invention, in which the upper fabric 1a is made of towel fabric, the lower fabric 1b is made of net fabric, and inside is a filling material 3 as shown in FIG. It is a cylindrical tube made of synthetic resin with r and length l of approximately 3 mm to 5 mm, and is filled with a large number of these to have a certain bulge.

As seen in the above drawing, the bed sore mat of the present invention has a horseshoe shape with arcuate tongues A and B extending inward from the center to the left and right, and the tips of the tongues A and B are freely open. made with the state.

Because of the above structure, the present invention can be used not only as a conventional circular seat by matching the edges of the tongue portions A and B, but also as shown in Fig. 4 (plan view) A, B, C, D, E...
This makes it possible to use various different embodiments such as those shown in FIG. At this time, when the upper cloth 1a and the lower cloth 1b of the left and right tongue-like portions A and B are used in an intersecting manner, the terry cloth portion of the upper cloth 1a is mainly brought into contact with the bony skin surface that is prone to bedsores. A gap of a necessary height is formed between the mesh portion of the lower cloth 1b and the floor surface to maintain good ventilation with the outside.

(Effects of the invention) The present invention is configured as described above, and it is possible to arbitrarily change the contact surface and the contact angle with respect to the skin surface that is prone to bedsores or the skin surface where bedsores have occurred. It is possible to achieve accurate preventive and therapeutic effects while maintaining good air permeability.

The filler used in this invention is produced at an extremely low cost, and in particular, the synthetic resin cylindrical tube is firm and hard to collapse, and has exceptional air circulation. It becomes. The cylindrical tube may be mixed with small styrofoam balls (which may be perforated) in an appropriate amount. The tube diameter and length of the tube should be approximately 3mm~
The width of 5 mm is necessary in order to maintain good air circulation while allowing the left and right tongues to freely bend and intersect.

Additionally, the overall installation and removal work during use can be easily performed.
