PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To use a cuff for a sphygmomanometer, even in situations in which it is difficult to put it on from a hand.SOLUTION: The cuff for a sphygmomanometer includes: a tightening belt 20 which is wound around along the outer circumferential surface of a cylindrically rounded belt-like flexible cuff 10 and a tightening mechanism 30 which has a pinion gear (31) to be engaged with racks (23) of the tightening belt 20. In the cuff for a sphygmomanometer. tightening mechanism 30 and the flexible cuff 10 are made attachable/detachable to/from each other through a part 61 to be joined and a joining part 50 (51, 52, 53). The tightening mechanism 30 is detached from the flexible cuff 10 and is returned to a belt shape opened at both ends, and the cuff is wound around an arm in the state, and the tightening mechanism is joined to the flexible cuff 10 again.COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT【課題】血圧計用腕帯において、手先から通すことが困難な状況においても使用することができるものとする。【解決手段】帯状の可撓性腕帯10を筒状に丸めて、その外周面に沿って巻き掛けられた締付けベルト20のラック(23)に噛み合うピニオンギヤ(31)を有する締付機構30と可撓性腕帯10とを、被接合部61と接合部50(51,52,53)とにより着脱可能として、締付機構30を可撓性腕帯10から外して両端が開いた帯状に戻し、この状態で腕に巻き付けて、締付機構を可撓性腕帯10に接合し直すものとする。【選択図】図5
