<p>PURPOSE:To improve fitting characteristics well corresponding to an individual body shape and to make fitting operation easy by constituting a main body consisting of a flexible raw material and a non-flexible raw material or a flexible raw material and a part where the flexibility of a specified part made of the flexible raw material is modified by an impregnation treatment of a treating agent. CONSTITUTION:For a knee disease such as a front projection of the shinbone caused by a damage of a front cross ligament, a three point supporting type knee device wherein a rear part 1 of the thigh and a rear part 2 of the lower limbs are used as supporting points and a rough face of the shinbone 3 is pressed from the front is used. Non-stretchability remaining flexibility is given to a region I covering a lower part of the knee covering bone 7 with a crescent shape by a treatment using a polyvinyl chloride emulsion. In addition, a high stretchability is provided to a region II which is a rear part of the lower limbs and reaches the central part of an abdominal muscle by using a part made of a styrene-isoprene-styrene copolymer. Furthermore, a weak stretchability is provided to a region III connecting a front part 11 of the thigh and the region II. Fixing force, supporting force, pressing force or moisture retention force to a part fitted to a human body can be properly improved thereby at a part treated with impregnation.</p> |
