  On the other hand, in the care, physically hard work such as raising and supporting the cared person's body is generated, which involves a great deal of labor for the caregiver. Therefore, it is useful for caregivers to have gloves that can reduce the labor of these operations and are comfortable to use. The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a glove for nursing care that is worn and used by a caregiver during a nursing care work and has an excellent wearing feeling.

  The nursing glove of the present invention that has solved the above-mentioned problems is a nursing glove having a main body part for inserting a hand and a hem part covering at least half of the forearm, and the glove is constituted by a mesh member. The ventilation part is provided, and the ventilation part is provided so as to extend in the longitudinal direction of the glove from the main body part to the skirt part.

  If the caregiver wears the care gloves of the present invention, when the caregiver wakes up or supports the body of the caregiver in the state of sleeping on the bed or the like, the chair is rested on the back, etc. This makes it easier to insert a hand under or behind the back of the child and can reduce the labor of care work. Under the present circumstances, since the ventilation part is provided so that it may extend in the longitudinal direction of a glove from a main-body part to a skirt part, the breathability of a care glove is improved and a feeling of wear improves. Further, since the ventilation portion is provided in the longitudinal direction, portions other than the ventilation portion are also provided so as to extend in the longitudinal direction, and the caregiver wears care gloves between the back of the care recipient and the bed in the longitudinal direction. This makes it easier to insert care gloves under or behind the back of the care recipient.

  The ventilation part is preferably provided on both the back side and the palm side of the glove. If the ventilation portion is provided on both the back side and the palm side of the glove, the breathability of the nursing gloves is improved. Further, the mesh member of the ventilation portion on the palm side plays a role of preventing slipping, and it becomes easy for the caregiver to wake up and adjust the body position of the care receiver while wearing the care gloves.

  The glove is composed of a plastic sheet and a mesh member, and is preferably provided so that the plastic sheet is exposed on the outer surface of the glove other than the ventilation portion. If the care gloves are configured so that the plastic sheet is exposed on the outer surface at the part other than the ventilation part, the slipperiness of the care gloves is improved, and the care gloves are placed under and behind the back of the care recipient. Easy to insert into.

  The glove is preferably configured by bonding a plastic sheet to the outer surface of the mesh member. If the plastic sheet is bonded to the outer surface of the mesh member, the slipperiness of the care gloves is improved, and the care gloves are not easily caught on the clothes or bed sheets of the care recipient.

  For example, it is preferable that the ventilation portion is not provided on both side portions in the width direction of the glove. If ventilation parts are not provided on both sides in the width direction of the glove, there will be no ventilation parts where the wearer's forearm bones (radius, ulna) hit strongly, and care gloves should be attached to the back of the cared person. The slipperiness when inserted below or on the rear side is effectively improved.

  The glove may have a pleat part formed by being folded inside, and a ventilation part may be provided in the pleat part. If the pleat portion is provided with a ventilation portion, it is possible to secure the breathability while suppressing the exposure of the ventilation portion to enhance the slipping property of the nursing gloves. In this case, it is preferable that the pleat part is formed in the side part of the glove's width direction.

  The hem is preferably provided with an elastic member along the opening edge of the glove. If the elastic member is provided along the opening edge of a glove, it will become difficult to take off care gloves from a wearer's hand and arm, and workability will improve. In addition, since the gloves for nursing care have a vent at the hem, moisture and heat inside the gloves pass through the ventilation even when the gloves are attached in close contact with the skin of the wearer at the opening edge. It is discharged and a feeling of wear improves.

  The main body part is preferably formed in a single bag shape without branching at the tip. If the main body is formed in a single bag, if the tip of the main body gets even under the back or back of the care recipient, push the care glove further into the entire care glove. Easy to insert under or behind the back of the care recipient.

  The glove preferably has no constriction formed from the main body part to the bottom part. If the nursing gloves are formed in this way, the air permeability inside the main body is increased, and the wearing feeling is improved.

  The care glove of the present invention is worn and used by a caregiver so that the caregiver can easily insert a hand under or behind the back of the caregiver when raising or supporting the body of the caregiver. It is possible to reduce the labor of care work. Moreover, since the ventilation | gas_flowing part is formed, the breathability of the glove for care is improved and a feeling of wear improves.

An example of the care glove of this invention is represented, and the perspective view of the care glove is represented. The example of the AA sectional view of the glove for care shown in Drawing 1 is expressed. The other example of the care glove of this invention is represented, and the perspective view of the care glove is represented.

  The care gloves of the present invention are worn and used by a caregiver, and the caregiver is in the state of sleeping on a bed or the like, or the back of a caregiver in a chair or the like. It is used to adjust the position of a cared person by inserting a hand under or behind the back to raise or support the cared person's body. In the present invention, “care” means taking care of or taking care of others other than yourself, and “caregiver” includes “nurse (nurse)”, “helper (helper)”, and the like. Is also included.

  The nursing gloves of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The present invention is not limited to the embodiments shown in the drawings. 1 and 2 show an example of the care gloves of the present invention. FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a nursing glove, and FIG. 2 shows an example of the AA cross-sectional view of FIG.

  The care glove 1 has a main body portion 2 into which a hand is inserted and a skirt portion 3 that covers at least half of the forearm. The main body 2 is formed at one end of the nursing gloves 1 and is formed in a bag shape. When wearing the nursing gloves 1, the main body 2 generally covers the portion ahead of the wearer's wrist. The hem 3 is formed at the other end of the care glove 1 and extends from the main body 2. The skirt 3 covers at least half of the wearer's forearm (a part from the wrist of the arm to the elbow), and preferably covers the wearer's elbow when the care gloves 1 are worn.

  Since the care gloves 1 are formed so as to cover at least half of the forearm from the hand, when the caregiver wears the care gloves 1 and inserts the hand under or behind the back of the care recipient, It becomes difficult to get caught in the care receiver's clothing, bed sheets, etc., and it becomes easy to insert the care worker's hand to forearm under or behind the back of the care receiver. For this reason, if the care gloves 1 are worn, the entire back of the cared person can be supported using the hand and the forearm, and the cared person's body can be easily raised or changed.

  The care glove 1 has a ventilation part 4 made of a mesh member and a covering part 5 as a part other than the ventilation part 4. In the present invention, the ventilation part 4 is defined as a part composed only of a mesh member. Therefore, for example, a portion where a plastic sheet, which will be described later, is superimposed on the mesh member is regarded as the covering portion 5 instead of the ventilation portion 4.

  A mesh member will not be specifically limited if it is a member in which the mesh was formed, and the opening shape of a mesh is not specifically limited. For example, the mesh member may have an opening with an equivalent circle diameter of 1 mm to 15 mm (preferably 2 mm to 12 mm). The equivalent circle diameter can be obtained by measuring the area of each opening formed in the mesh member in a state where the mesh member is placed in a flat shape without applying a load, and calculating the diameter of the circle of the same area.

  It is preferable that the covering portion 5 basically has no opening (for example, an opening having a circle-equivalent diameter of 0.5 mm or more) that is visible with the naked eye. The covering portion 5 is preferably made of a material that is slippery with respect to clothes, sheets, and the like. From this point, the covering portion 5 is preferably made of a plastic sheet. In detail, it is preferable that the outer surface of the coating | coated part 5 is comprised from the plastic sheet. In this case, a plastic sheet will be provided so that it may be exposed to the outer surface of the glove 1 by the coating | coated part 5. FIG. If the outer surface of the care glove 1 is made of a plastic sheet, the slipperiness of the care glove 1 is improved, and the care receiver's back is against the bed while the care receiver is sleeping on the bed or the like. Even if they are in close contact with each other, the caregiver wears the care gloves 1 and can easily insert a hand between the back and the bed of the care recipient.

  The plastic sheet is not particularly limited as long as it is a sheet member made of a plastic (synthetic resin) material, and examples thereof include woven fabric, knitted fabric, nonwoven fabric, and plastic film. In consideration of the strength and slipperiness of the plastic sheet, the plastic sheet is preferably a woven fabric or a knitted fabric (that is, a woven fabric or a knitted fabric composed of synthetic resin fibers). If a woven fabric or a knitted fabric is used as the plastic sheet, fine irregularities are formed on the surface of the plastic sheet, and the slipperiness of the plastic sheet is improved. In addition, when a care glove is worn and inserted or pulled out under or behind the back of the care recipient, even if the plastic sheet is pulled strongly, the plastic sheet is not easily broken or stretched. The plastic sheet is more preferably a woven fabric, and particularly preferably a so-called high-density woven fabric.

  When using a woven or knitted fabric as a plastic sheet, the fibers constituting the woven or knitted fabric should be made of polyester such as polyethylene terephthalate, polytrimethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, or polyamide such as nylon 6 or nylon 66. Is preferred. The woven or knitted fabric is preferably composed of long fiber yarns (filament yarns).

  The woven structure of the woven fabric or the knitted structure of the knitted fabric is not particularly limited, and a known woven structure or knitted structure may be adopted. Examples of the woven fabric include plain weave, twill weave and satin weave. Examples of the knitting structure of the knitted fabric include flat knitting, double-sided knitting, and half knitting.

  As described above, since the nursing gloves 1 have the ventilation part 4 made of a mesh member, the breathability of the nursing gloves 1 is enhanced, moisture and heat are less likely to accumulate inside the gloves 1, and the feeling of wear is increased. improves. For example, when performing labor-intensive work such as wearing care gloves to raise or support the upper body of the cared person, moisture or heat from sweat from the wearer fills the glove and makes it feel comfortable to wear. However, according to the care glove of the present invention, moisture and heat in the glove are discharged from the ventilation part, and the wearing feeling of the glove is improved.

  The ventilation part 4 is preferably provided so as to extend from the main body part 2 to the bottom part 3 in the longitudinal direction of the glove 1. By providing the ventilation part 4 from the main body part 2 to the hem part 3, moisture and heat in the gloves are easily discharged from both the main body part 2 and the hem part 3. In the care gloves 1, the longitudinal direction means the direction from the main body 2 to the hem 3, and the width direction means the longitudinal direction in a state where the nursing gloves 1 are flat (planar along the palm). Means the vertical direction.

  Further, by providing the ventilation part 4 so as to extend in the longitudinal direction of the glove 1 from the main body part 2 to the skirt part 3, the care glove 1 can be easily moved in the longitudinal direction between the back of the care recipient and the bed. . To explain this, the ventilation part 4 made of a mesh member is inferior in slipperiness with the care receiver's clothing, bed sheets, etc., so that the care glove 1 is provided with the care receiver even if the ventilation part 4 is provided. It is preferable to be configured so that it can be easily inserted under or behind the back. In this respect, by providing the ventilation part 4 so as to extend in the longitudinal direction from the main body part 2 to the skirt part 3, the covering part 5 is also provided so as to extend in the longitudinal direction. It is possible to easily move the gloves 1 in the longitudinal direction between the care receiver's back and the bed. As a result, the care gloves 1 can be easily inserted under or behind the back of the care recipient while ensuring the breathability of the care gloves 1.

  The ventilation portion may be provided on a part of the outer surface of the nursing gloves. However, from the viewpoint of enhancing the breathability of the nursing gloves, the ventilation portion is preferably provided on 15% or more of the outer surface of the gloves. % Or more is more preferable, and 25% or more is more preferable. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of ensuring the slipperiness of the nursing gloves, the ventilation portion is preferably provided at 65% or less of the outer surface of the glove, more preferably 60% or less, and even more preferably 55% or less. The ratio is calculated based on the area of the outer surface of the nursing gloves, and the area of the ventilation part is calculated including the opening of the mesh member.

  A plurality of ventilation portions may be provided. In this case, it is preferable that any ventilation portion is provided so as to extend in the longitudinal direction of the glove, and further, any ventilation portion is preferably provided from the main body portion to the skirt portion. The ventilation part is also preferably provided intermittently in the width direction of the glove from the main body part to the bottom part.

  The ventilation part may be provided only on the back side of the glove, may be provided only on the palm side, or may be provided on both the back side and the palm side. If the ventilation part is provided on the back side of the glove, a gap is likely to be created between the wearer's hand and the glove when using care gloves, and moisture and heat in the glove are preferred from the ventilation part on the back side. It becomes easy to be discharged. If the ventilation part is provided on the palm side of the glove, moisture and heat in the glove are discharged from the ventilation part on the palm side, and the mesh member of the ventilation part also plays a role of anti-slip. In other words, when the caregiver's back is supported while wearing the care gloves, the care gloves are less likely to be displaced in the glove width direction on the care receiver's back. Therefore, it becomes easy for the caregiver to wake up or adjust the position of the cared person while wearing the care gloves. Preferably, the ventilation portion is provided on both the back side and the palm side of the glove.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the ventilation part 4 is preferably not provided on both sides in the width direction of the nursing gloves 1. Therefore, it is preferable that both side portions in the width direction of the nursing gloves 1 are constituted by the covering portions 5. By configuring the care glove 1 in this way, the glove 1 has the covering portion 5 in the portion where the wearer's forearm bone (radius, ulna) strongly hits. The slipperiness when inserted under the back or rear side is effectively improved. In addition, the both side parts of the width direction of a care glove mean the part containing each edge part of a wearer's little finger side and thumb side in a glove for care.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the ventilation part 4 is also preferably provided on one side in the width direction of the glove 1. In this case, the glove 1 for nursing care is formed with the covering portion 5 wider on the side portion on one side in the width direction than on the side portion on the other side. The care glove 1 configured in this way is worn so that the side where the forearm bone is stronger and the back of the cared person is located is located on the side part where the covering part 5 is formed wide. Easy to insert under and back of the back.

  The care gloves are preferably composed of a mesh member and a plastic sheet. In this case, it is preferable that the plastic sheet is joined to the outer surface of the mesh member. If the plastic sheet is bonded to the outer surface of the mesh member, the slipperiness of the care gloves is improved, and the care gloves are not easily caught on the clothes or bed sheets of the care recipient.

  2A to 2C show an example of joining the mesh member 6 and the plastic sheet 7. 2A to 2C, the mesh member 6 is represented by a dotted line, and the plastic sheet 7 is bonded to the outer surface of the mesh member 6 in all cases. In the drawing, the mesh member 6 and the plastic sheet 7 are drawn apart from each other for the sake of convenience, but in actuality, the mesh member 6 and the plastic sheet 7 are joined at the overlapping portion.

  In FIG. 2A, the plastic sheet 7 is laminated on the mesh member 6, the covering portion 5 is formed in the portion where the plastic sheet 7 exists, and the ventilation portion 4 is formed in the portion where the plastic sheet 7 does not exist. Yes. In the embodiment of FIG. 2 (a), a nursing glove can be formed by overlaying and joining a plastic sheet to a desired portion of the outer surface of a mesh member that can be formed into a glove shape. Can be manufactured. In addition, since the entire inner surface of the nursing gloves is made of a mesh member, it is easy to form a gap between the wearer's hand or arm and the nursing gloves, thereby improving the air permeability in the gloves. it can.

  In FIG. 2 (b), the mesh member 6 and the plastic sheet 7 are joined to form a nursing glove, and the plastic sheet 7 is outside the mesh member 6 at the joint between the mesh member 6 and the plastic sheet 7. Bonded to the surface. In the embodiment of FIG. 2 (b), the amount of the mesh member 6 and the plastic sheet 7 used can be reduced, and the material cost when manufacturing the nursing gloves can be suppressed.

  In FIG. 2C, the mesh member 6 and the plastic sheet 7 are joined together to form a nursing glove. In FIG. 2C, the plastic material is used at the joint between the mesh member 6 and the plastic sheet 7. A mesh member 6 is joined to a folded portion 7F formed by folding the sheet 7 inside the glove. In the embodiment of FIG. 2 (c), the slipperiness of the care gloves is improved particularly at the boundary between the mesh member 6 and the plastic sheet 7, and the care gloves (particularly the mesh member) are used for the clothes and bed sheets of the care recipient. It becomes difficult to get caught in etc.

  The shape of care gloves will be described. The shape of the main body 2 is not particularly limited as long as it can insert the wearer's hand, but it is easy to insert the caregiver's hand under or behind the back of the cared person. As shown in FIG. 1, the tip 2 is preferably formed in a single bag shape without branching the tip. If the main body part is formed in this way, if the tip of the main body part enters even under the back or back of the care recipient, the care glove can be taken care of by pushing the care glove further. It becomes easy to insert under the person's back and behind. In addition, the air permeability inside the main body is increased, and the wearing feeling is improved.

  The main body portion may be composed of a bag-like portion into which a thumb is inserted and a bag-like portion into which little fingers are put together from the index finger (not shown). If the main body is formed in this manner, it becomes easy to grasp the arm of the care recipient or support the torso with both hands while wearing the care gloves, and the care workability is improved.

  The shape of the skirt 3 is not particularly limited as long as it is formed in a cylindrical shape. In addition, as shown in FIG. 1, it is preferable that the glove 1 for nursing care is not formed with the constriction from the main-body part 2 to the skirt part 3. If the nursing glove is formed in this way, ventilation in the glove is possible. This increases the feeling of wearing.

  The size of the glove for care should just be a size which covers from a wearer's hand to at least half of the forearm. Moreover, it is preferable to form wider than the width | variety of a normal hand and arm so that moisture and heat may move easily within a glove. From this point, for example, the glove for care is about 30 cm to 65 cm (preferably 40 cm to 60 cm) in the longitudinal direction and 15 cm to 30 cm (preferably 20 cm to 27 cm) in the width direction. It is preferable. The length of the main body in the longitudinal direction may be, for example, about 15 cm to 23 cm. In addition, the length in the longitudinal direction and the width direction of the nursing gloves is measured in a state where the nursing gloves are flat, and when the nursing gloves are provided with an elastic member, the elastic member is removed (that is, the resilient member). Measured under the condition that the care gloves are not distorted by the stretching force of the

  As long as the length with respect to the longitudinal direction of the glove is formed longer than the length with respect to the width direction of the glove, the shape and size of the ventilation part are not particularly limited. In addition, from the point which improves the air permeability of a nursing glove by providing a ventilation part, and improves the operativity of a nursing glove, the ventilation part is 8 cm-65 cm (preferably 10 cm-60 cm) in the longitudinal direction, The length in the width direction is preferably about 0.5 cm to 10 cm (preferably 1 cm to 7 cm).

  As shown in FIG. 1, the skirt 3 is preferably provided with an elastic member 8 along the opening edge 1 </ b> E of the nursing gloves 1. At this time, the elastic member 8 is preferably attached to the skirt 3 in an extended state. If the elastic member 8 is provided along the opening edge 1E, the care glove 1 can be attached to the wearer's glove 1 even if the care glove 1 is worn under the back or behind the care receiver. Workability is improved because it is difficult to remove from the hands and arms. Moreover, since the ventilation glove 4 is formed in the hem 3 of the nursing glove 1, even if the nursing glove 1 is attached in close contact with the wearer's skin at the opening edge 1E, moisture and heat in the glove 1 Is discharged through the ventilation part 4 and the feeling of wear is improved.

  FIG. 3 shows another example of the care gloves of the present invention. The care glove 1 shown in FIG. 3 has a pleat portion 9 formed by being folded inside, and the ventilation portion 4 is provided in the pleat portion 9. By providing the ventilation part 4 in the pleat part 9, it is possible to suppress the exposure of the ventilation part 4 and improve the slipperiness of the nursing gloves 1, while ensuring the air permeability.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the pleat portion 9 is preferably provided on a side portion of the glove 1 in the width direction. By providing the pleat portion 9 on the side portion in the width direction of the glove 1, the pleat portion 9 becomes difficult to unfold greatly when using the care glove 1, and the slipperiness of the glove 1 is easily secured. Although the pleat part 9 may be provided only on one side part in the width direction of the glove 1 or may be provided on both side parts, the pleat part 9 is preferably provided like the former. In this case, both the slipping property and the air permeability of the glove 1 can be improved by attaching the nursing gloves 1 so that the pleat portion 9 is positioned on the wearer's little finger side.
