  • the heating device main body 2 can be folded between the pair of heat generating parts 20.
  • the heating device main body 2 has a folding part 21 between the pair of heat generating parts 20.
  • the heating device main body 2 can be folded at the folding part 21, for example, by being flexible.
  • the heating device main body 2 is preferably formed in a thin, flat shape. This allows the heating device main body 2 to be easily folded at the folding part 21.
  • the heating device main body 2 is attached to the fingertips or toes with its length facing the front-to-back direction of the hand or foot.
  • the bent portion 21 between the pair of heat generating parts 20 of the heating device main body 2 is arranged on the tip side of the toes of the hand or toe, one heat generating part 20 of the heating device main body 2 is arranged on the sole side of the hand or foot (palm or sole), and by bending the heating device main body 2, the other heat generating part 20 of the heating device main body 2 is arranged on the front side of the hand or foot (back of the hand or back of the foot).
  • the heating device main body 2 wraps around the fingertips or toes from the tips of the fingers, and the pair of heat generating parts 20 apply heat to the fingertips or toes from both the front and back sides.
  • the heating device body 2 is preferably formed in a vertically elongated shape with a larger vertical dimension than a horizontal dimension, although there is no particular limitation.
  • the vertical length of the heating device body 2, i.e., the distance D between both vertical ends, is designed so that when the heating device body 2 is attached to the fingertips or toes, both vertical ends E reach the palm and back of the hand beyond the base of the fingers if the heating device body 2 is attached to the fingertips, and both vertical ends E reach the sole and top of the foot if the heating device body 2 is attached to the toes.
  • the heating device main body 2 is formed with an external shape that is symmetrical with respect to a center line C that extends horizontally (i.e., a line that passes through the vertical center of the heating device main body 2 and bisects the vertical length D of the heating device main body 2). Therefore, the bent portion 21 between a pair of heat generating parts 20 of the heating device main body 2 is located in the vertical center of the heating device main body 2.
  • the heating device main body 2 is also formed with an external shape that is symmetrical with respect to a center line that extends vertically (i.e., a line that bisects the horizontal length and is perpendicular to the center line C). It is not necessary for the heating device main body 2 to be formed with an external shape that is symmetrical with respect to the center line C that extends horizontally and the center line that extends vertically.
  • the heating device main body 2 has a pair of side edges 22 and a pair of end edges 23, and the pair of side edges 22 and the pair of end edges 23 form the outer shape of the heating device main body 2.

Since the horizontal length of the heating device main body 2 is narrowest at the bent portion 21 in the vertical center (between the pair of heat generating parts 20), the heating device main body 2 is easily bent at the bent portion 21 between the pair of heat generating parts 20.
  • the pair of side edges 22 may be inclined linearly to form a gentle V-shape, or may be inclined curvedly to be smoothly concave.
  • Fingers and toes are shaped so that the length (width) in the left-right direction gradually increases from the base of the fingers to the tip side in a plan view. Therefore, if the pair of side edges 22 of the heating device main body 2 are inclined so that the distance between them gradually increases from the vertical center toward both vertical ends, the shape of the part of the heating device main body 2 from the vertical center (between the pair of heat generating parts 20) to both vertical ends E will be a shape that conforms to the shape of the fingers and toes. This makes it possible to prevent the heating device main body 2 from having a marginal part that protrudes from the finger or foot and does not come into contact with the finger or foot when the heating device main body 2 is attached to the finger or foot. If the heating device main body 2 has a large marginal part that protrudes from the finger or foot when the heating device main body 2 is attached to the finger or foot, the user may feel uncomfortable when using the device, so this embodiment reduces the discomfort felt by the user when using the device.

Therefore, the portion of the heating device main body 2 where the pair of first adhesive layers 3 are formed is the attachment area 26 that is attached to the fingers or toes. In addition, the portion of the heating device main body 2 between the pair of first adhesive layers 3 is a non-adhesive area 27 that is free of adhesive, except for the folded portion 21 where the second adhesive layer 4 is formed.

The non-adhesive area 27 of the heating device main body 2 mostly touches the finger parts.

This ensures that the vertical length d of the attachment areas 26 in the heating device main body 2 is sufficiently secured, so that the heating device main body 2 can be firmly attached to the fingertips or toes. This makes it difficult for the heating device main body 2 to peel off from the fingertips or toes when the heating device for hands and feet 1 is in use.
  • the first adhesive layer 3 is preferably formed in a portion that extends from the vertical end E of the heating device main body 2 toward the vertical center, over a length of 1/4 or less of the distance D between both vertical ends.
  • the pair of attachment areas 26 are preferably areas that extend to a position where the inner edge is d ⁇ 1/4D. In the heating device main body 2, if the attachment area 26 spreads too far vertically, when the heating device main body 2 is attached to the finger or foot, the attachment area 26 may extend too far toward the fingers of the finger or foot and stick to the finger, hindering the freedom of movement of the finger.

  • most of the first adhesive layer 3 is formed on the outer periphery joint of the heating device main body 2.
  • the outer periphery joint is thinner and more easily deformed than the heating part 20 in which the heat generating material 5 is held, so by forming most of the first adhesive layer 3 on the outer periphery joint of the heating device main body 2, it becomes easier to attach the heating device main body 2 to the palm and back of the hand or the sole and back of the foot.
  • the second adhesive layer 4 is a portion where adhesive is present in the vertical center of the heating device main body 2 (between the pair of heat generating parts 20).

Therefore, when attaching the heating device main body 2 to the fingertips or toes, the tips of the fingertips or toes can be easily aligned, making it easy to attach the heating device main body 2 to the appropriate position on the palm and back of the hand or the sole and back of the foot.
  • Examples of adhesives that form the second adhesive layer 4 include acrylic adhesives, vinyl adhesives, vinyl acetate adhesives, polyvinyl acetal adhesives, vinyl chloride adhesives, cellulose adhesives, chloroprene adhesives, nitrile rubber adhesives, styrene rubber adhesives, silicone rubber adhesives, polysulfide adhesives, terpene resins, water-soluble rosin, and other adhesives.
