PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a compression supporter compressing the patella ligament of a wearer and holding the kneecap of the wearer to favorably fix the knee joint.SOLUTION: The compression supporter includes a body made of stretchable raw material and having a shape attachable to the knee of the wearer, wherein a low-stretchable area having a stretchability lower than that of the body is disposed in the body to support the knee joint and the tendon of the muscle via difference in stretchability between the low-stretchable area and the body. The supporter has a front-face suspending area 22 formed in the front face of the body into an almost U-shape surrounding the lower part of the kneecap to pressurize the patella ligament as the low-stretchable area. In the low-stretchable area, low-stretchable material made of resin is fixed to the body 20.COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT【課題】膝蓋靭帯を圧迫し、かつ、膝蓋骨を保持して、膝関節を良好に固定するコンプレッションサポーターを提供する。【解決手段】伸縮性素材より成り膝部に着用し得る形態の本体を具備し、上記本体よりも伸縮性の低い低伸縮領域を本体に設け、上記低伸縮領域と本体の伸縮性の相違により膝関節部及び周囲筋腱をサポートするサポーターとして、低伸縮領域として、膝蓋靭帯を圧迫するために、膝蓋骨の下部を取り囲むほぼU字型に、本体正面に設けた正面吊り領域22を具備し、上記低伸縮領域は、樹脂より成る低伸縮性材料を本体20に固着する。コンプレッションサポーター。【選択図】 図1
