PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a joint-part patch, even when being patched to a joint part, being patched easily without causing creases, when being patched, capable of providing a tapering effect by appropriately restricting movement of the joint part, and, even when being rubbed with clothing, being less likely to be peeled off and attached to the clothing.SOLUTION: A joint-part patch is formed by superposing a support body having elasticity at least in one direction of longitudinal and lateral directions, and an adhesive, where the joint-part patch is formed into a laterally-long U shape consisting of a pair of arm parts 11 and 11 facing each other in both sides of an outward-opened recess part 10, and a connecting part 12 for connecting base ends of both arm parts. When x is a lateral width of an inner peripheral part of the recess part, d is the depth of the inner peripheral part of the recess part, w is the lateral width of the arm parts, and h is an outer peripheral vertical width including the recess part and the connecting part, then x=40±20 (mm), d=0.7x-1.5x (mm), w=25-2x (mm), and h=d+25-1.3(x+2w) (mm). The 10% tensile load of the support body is 1.0 N/25 mm or less, 50% tensile load is 15 N/25 mm or less, and bending resistance is within the range of 11-25 mm.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2COPYRIGHT: (C)2018,JPO&INPIT【課題】関節部に貼付する場合でも容易にかつ皺が発生することが少なく貼付することができ、貼付時は、関節の動きを適度に制限しテーピング効果が得られ、衣服に擦れても剥れ難く衣服に付きにくい関節部貼付材を提供すること。【解決手段】縦横のうち少なくとも1方向に伸縮性を有する支持体と、粘着剤とを積層してなる関節部貼付材において、外方が開口する凹部10を挟んで対峙する一対の腕部11,11と、両腕部の基端部を連結する連結部12とからなる横長U字型に形成し、凹部の内周部横幅をx、凹部の内周部深さをd、腕部の横幅をw、凹部と連結部を含む外周縦幅をhとしたとき、x=40±20(mm)、d=0.7x~1.5x(mm)、w=25~2x(mm)、h=d+25~1.3(x+2w)(mm)とする。支持体の10%引張荷重が1.0N/25mm以下、50%引張荷重が15N/25mm以下、剛軟度が、11~25mmの範囲である。【選択図】図2
