PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a support for a lower body that can improve blood circulation of the whole lower body and effectively prevent the onset of an economy-class syndrome.SOLUTION: The support for the lower body includes a longitudinal belt 10 stretched in loop shape over the back side of an upper body from the soles of the feet via the front faces or side faces of both knees so that a load is applied to the back side of the upper body when placing the soles of the feet of a wearer thereon to stretch, and a lateral belt 20 stretched in loop shape over a left knee overlap part and a right knee overlap part in the longitudinal belt 10 so that the left knee overlap part overlapping with the left knee of the wearer and the right knee overlap part overlapping with the right knee of the wearer in the longitudinal belt 10 are not separated. The longitudinal belt 10 is preferably provided with a longitudinal belt length adjusting means 14 for adjusting its length, and a foot placing slide pipe 15 for inserting the longitudinal belt 10 in a slidable state.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】下半身全体の血行を良くし、エコノミークラス症候群の発症を効果的に予防することも可能な下半身用支持具を提供する。【解決手段】下半身用支持具を、着用者の足裏を載せて突っ張った際にその荷重が上体の背面側に掛かるように足裏から両膝の前面又は側面を経て上体の背面側にループ状に掛け回すための縦ベルト10と、縦ベルト10における着用者の左膝に重なる左膝重合部と右膝に重なる右膝重合部とが離反しないように縦ベルト10における左膝重合部と右膝重合部にループ状に掛け回すための横ベルト20とで構成した。縦ベルト10には、その長さを調節するための縦ベルト長調節手段14と、縦ベルト10をスライド可能な状態で挿入するための足載せ用スライドパイプ15とを設けると好ましい。【選択図】図2
