PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a supporter appropriately protecting and fixing the ligament and the tendon at the joint of the body of a wearer.SOLUTION: The supporter 10 for an elbow joint part includes: a cylindrical supporter body 1 a strongly extending stress part 2 having stronger extending stress than that of the supporter body 1 and a medium strength extending stress part 7 having weaker extending stress than that of the strongly extending stress part 2 and having stronger extending stress than that of the supporter body 1. The strongly extending stress part 2 includes a first strongly extending stress part having a first side sub-ligament covering part 31 covering the inside sub-ligament of the elbow joint part, and a second side sub-ligament covering part 32 covering the outside sub-ligament. The medium strength extending stress part 7 includes a first medium strength extending stress part 71 disposed around each of the whole peripheral parts of the first side sub-ligament covering part 31 and the second side sub-ligament covering part 32 so as to be adjacent to them.COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT【課題】身体の関節部の靭帯や腱を適切に保護及び固定できるサポーターの提供を目的とする。【解決手段】肘関節部用のサポーター10は、筒状のサポーター本体1と、そのサポーター本体1よりも伸張応力が強い強伸張応力部2と、その強伸張応力部2よりも伸張応力が弱い且つサポーター本体1よりも伸張応力が強い中強伸張応力部7とを備えている。また、強伸張応力部2は、肘関節部の内側側副靭帯を被覆する第1側副靭帯被覆部31と、外側側副靭帯を被覆する第2側副靭帯被覆部32とを有する第1強伸張応力部を備えている。中強伸張応力部7は、第1側副靭帯被覆部31と第2側副靭帯被覆部32との夫々の全周部に、それらと隣接するようにして配設された第1中強伸張応力部71を備えている。【選択図】図1
