BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention is for applying an adhesive coated article such as a poultice or a poultice to a site such as the back which cannot be reached by the patient by his / her own hands without the help of others. The present invention relates to a sticking aid for sticky coated articles used.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art When applying the above-mentioned compress to the back, for example, a doctor or a nurse in a hospital or the like, or a home or the like borrows the help of another person. In particular, when it is desired to attach it to a part that is beyond the reach of oneself, it is necessary for another person to attach it, and in the case of an old person, the presence of another person is indispensable.

In such a case, a sticking tool has been disclosed for the purpose of sticking with one's own hand (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-
299147). This adopts a roller system, and a belt guide section erected on a support frame,
It is provided with a feed belt which is driven by a drive roller to feed the patch, and a pressing roller which is arranged on the delivery side. Then, in a state where the adhesive patch surface is stuck to the feed belt, the support frame is moved while pressing the support frame against the back to circulate the feed belt, whereby the patch drug is fed to the delivery side. , At that position, it can be attached by pressing it against the back side with a pressing roller.

[0004]

However, in the above-mentioned pasting tool, since the mechanism is complicated, it is necessary to get used to it until learning the operation. Also, therefore, it becomes difficult to stick to the position on the back where you really want to stick, and there is a risk that it will be stuck to a position different from the desired position,
In other words, there is a lot of misalignment to an unintended position. In particular, it is difficult for an old person to use, and in the end, he / she will need the help of another person.

In addition, a number of types of poultices as a patch are manufactured and sold, and the adhesive strength varies depending on the type. In the above-mentioned roller system, the poultices are entangled in the rollers that are its constituent elements. There is a case that it will end up. For this reason, it lacks certainty and makes the pasting work by the person to be pasted by himself / herself more difficult.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is that even an elderly person or the like can operate extremely easily and surely, and is truly attached. An object of the present invention is to provide a sticking aid for sticky coated articles that can be stuck to a desired position accurately.

In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, one end is positioned on the body front side of the person to be adhered and the other end is positioned on the body rear side of the person to be adhered. The middle part has a bent or bent shape to obtain
A support arm having a communication hole that communicates from the one end to the other end is provided inside, and the operation unit is connected to the one end of the support arm, and the suction head unit is connected to the other end of the support arm. It was done. Then, inside the operation portion, a suction means for applying a suction force to the suction head portion through a communication hole of the support arm and an operation switch for turning on / off the operation of the suction means are arranged. The suction head portion is provided with a surface member that is exposed at the tip end opening side and detachably adsorbs and holds the adhesive coated article when the suction force is applied or stopped.

Here, the "suction means" need not have a very large suction force, and may be a suction force capable of temporarily and temporarily holding the adhesive coated article, for example, by a small motor. A fan or the like that is rotated may be used. Further, the "face member" has a flat surface so that a thin sheet-shaped or cloth-like adhesive coated article can be laid flat, and the suction force is applied to the coated article. Any material may be used as long as it has a breathability that allows it to act and temporarily hold it. Further, the "adhesive coated article" is a poultice, a poultice, etc., in which a poultice or a poultice is applied or polymerized on one surface of the base layer to form a drug layer, and It is configured to exhibit adhesiveness by the adhesiveness of the drug itself or by mixing the adhesive with the drug.

According to the present invention, first, the operation switch is turned on with the adhesive coated article facing the surface member, or conversely, the adhesive coated article is placed with the operation switch turned on. When facing each other, the suction force of the suction means is applied to the surface member of the suction head through the communication hole of the support arm, and the suction force causes the coated article to be sucked onto the surface member. As a result, the coated article is temporarily held by the suction head in a flatly spread state, that is, in a stretched state. Next, the person to be attached holds the operating portion and positions the operating portion on the front side of the body, the suction head on the rear side of the body, that is, on the back side, and the coated article adsorbed by the surface member is desired on the back. Push it in place to make it stick. When the operation switch is turned off in this state, the load of the suction force is removed, and the covering article adhered to the back and the surface member are separated. In the case where a film-shaped release sheet is attached to the drug layer portion of the adhesive coated article, the person to be attached may separate the release sheet after the work of adsorbing to the surface member. do it. In the above case, it becomes possible for the person to be pasted to easily carry out the task of pasting the adhesive coated article with his / her own hand to a site such as the back that is originally out of reach. On top of that, it is possible to easily and surely perform the positioning to the desired sticking position on the back side simply by gripping the operation part on the front side of the body and adjusting the position of the suction head, and also the adhesive coating. Product coverage The product can be attached to and removed from the surface member instantly by simply turning on and off the operation switch on the front side of the body, so there is no unintentional misalignment, and it is possible to reliably cover the position where you really want to attach It will be possible to attach items.

In the above invention, the surface member may include a porous cushion member having a cushioning property and having a large number of continuous through holes. In this case, as the cushion member, the surface arranged so as to be exposed at the tip end opening side of the suction head portion has a surface shape larger than the developed shape of the adhesive coated article, and the back surface is the suction hole of the communication hole. It may be arranged so as to face the head side opening. As a result, when the coated article is adsorbed to the surface of the cushion member, the suction force becomes indirect and gentle through the cushion member, and such suction force is substantially applied to the entire surface of the coated article. It becomes possible to act uniformly. Therefore, the suction work can be further facilitated. Moreover, even after the coated article in the adsorbed state is adhered to the back and separated, the work of making the adhesion more reliable by hitting or pressing the base layer side of the coated article by the cushion member is convenient. You can do it.

Further, in the above invention, the operating portion has a built-in battery for applying an operating current to the suction means, and the application from the battery is turned on / off as an operating switch.
