In particular, it is difficult to accurately measure the length of the hand because the palm cannot be seen at the time of measurement, but the length of the hand can also be measured easily and accurately.

EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION Below, the form for implementing this invention is demonstrated with reference to drawings. FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view of a hand length, foot length and height measuring device 50 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The measuring device 50 is a hand length measuring unit 1 and a foot length measurement. A unit 21 and a height measuring unit 31 are provided. On the surface of the hand length measuring unit 1, a palm placing unit 5 displaying a scale unit 2 and a bill unit 3 is provided. And a palm is mounted in the palm mounting part 5, and the length of a hand is measured by the corresponding scale part 2. FIG. The palm can be placed so that the palm is aligned with the bill portion 3.

The foot length measuring unit 21 is provided with a foot placing unit 25 having a scale unit 22 and a foot-shaped unit 23 displayed on the surface. The length of the foot is measured by the corresponding scale portion 22 by placing the foot on the foot placement portion 25. When the foot is placed, the foot is placed so that the sole of the foot matches the sole 23. Further, the height measuring unit 31 is provided with a height portion 35 extending in a direction perpendicular to the foot placement portion 25, that is, vertically extending from the foot placement portion 25, and a scale portion 32 is displayed in the longitudinal direction of the height height portion 35. It is. The scale portion 32 is displayed at a constant interval (for example, every 1 cm), and indicates the length (height) from the surface of the foot placement portion 25 with the foot placement portion 25 as a reference. Therefore, both feet are placed on the foot placement portion 25, and the height of the person located on the foot placement portion 25 is measured by the corresponding scale portion 32. When measuring the height, a horizontally long auxiliary determination member (not shown) that is in contact with the top of the head may be used to accurately determine the position of the top by the scale, that is, the height.

The hand-shaped part 3 displaying the shape of the hand clearly indicates the position where the palm is placed, and does not necessarily match the size of the hand of the measurer. In addition, the size of either the left or right hand 16 can be measured with the same bill portion 3. The left and right feet of the foot-shaped portion 23 displaying the shape of the foot are arranged side by side. In this case, the foot-shaped portion 33 does not necessarily need to match the size of the measurer's foot.

The scale portions 2 and 22 of the hand length measurement unit 1 and the foot length measurement unit 21 have a lattice shape composed of a plurality of length lines and width lines displayed at regular intervals perpendicular to each other. In the foot length direction, a scale line with a length of 2 cmm is displayed, and in the width direction of the hand and foot, a scale line with a width of 1 cmm is displayed, and the length scale line and the width scale line indicate the hand. The length and width of the hand and foot placed on the placement portion 5 and the foot placement portion 35 are measured. The length of the hand and the length of the foot (in the broad sense) includes both the length of the hand and the foot (in the narrow sense) and the width of the hand and the foot. Includes measurement of hand length and width, and measurement of foot length and width. The height measuring unit 31 measures the height of the person's height by the scale portion 32 of the height portion.

The hand length measuring unit 1 is provided on the front surface portion 36 of the height portion. A part of the front surface portion 36 of the height portion constitutes the palm placement portion 5, and the palm placement portion 5 is positioned in the vertical direction with respect to the foot placement portion 25, like the height portion 35. The hand length measuring unit 1 is provided at a substantially central position in the longitudinal direction of the height portion 35. That is, the position is about 80 cm to 1 m from the foot placement portion 25, and at this height, the palm can be easily placed on the palm placement portion 5. However, the position of the hand length measuring unit 1 is not limited, and one or more can be provided at any position and height of the measuring instrument 50 including the rear surface part of the height part.

A wrist support portion 6 is erected on the palm placement portion 5 of the hand length measurement portion 1. The wrist support portion 6 is a horizontally long, substantially rectangular parallelepiped, arranged in the width direction of the height portion 35, and bonded to the front surface portion 36 of the height portion. The wrist support unit 7 supports the wrist 10 while maintaining a certain distance from the palm placement unit 5, and the wrist 10 (all or at least one part) is in contact with the wrist contact unit 7. As long as it has such a function, the wrist support 7 is not limited to a rectangular parallelepiped.

The wrist support part 6 has a wrist contact part 7 by a notch, and the wrist contact part 7 is an inclined surface that descends to the palm placing part 5. The wrist 10 naturally comes into contact with the wrist contact portion 9 that is an inclined surface, and the palm 10 is also stably placed on the palm placement portion 5. In addition, the wrist contact portion 7 which is an inclined surface faces the scale portion 2 (or the hand shape portion 3), and the reference line 9 (the length of the hand is measured in the hand length scale portion 2). The zero reference line) is displayed at or close to the lower edge 13 of the wrist contact portion. That is, the lower end edge 13 of the wrist contact portion corresponds to the reference line 9 of the length of the scale portion 2. Therefore, when the wrist 10 is brought into contact with the wrist contact portion 9 along the upper edge 12 of the wrist contact portion, the palm is in a state in which the base end portion of the palm following the wrist 10 substantially coincides with the reference line 9 of the length. Thus, it is placed on the palm placing portion 5. That is, the wrist 10 is brought into contact with the wrist contact portion 7 and the palm is placed on the palm placing portion 5 so that the length of the hand is accurately measured.

In view of the structure of the hand bone, the wrist joint 11 corresponding to the wrist 10 has a human bone on the arm side, a flexor bone, and a palmar bone on the palm side (specifically, a lunar bone, a scaphoid bone, and a triangular bone). , And the wrist 10 is connected to the wrist contact portion 7 which is an inclined surface including the upper edge 12 of the contact portion. It comes into contact naturally without difficulty (see FIGS. 12 and 14). In other words, the arm including the wrist is inclined at a certain angle along the inclined surface of the contact portion 7 of the wrist, while the palm is placed on the palm placing portion 5 which is a flat surface. Since the wrist and the palm can be placed smoothly in this way, for example, when the hand length measurement unit 1 is provided on the front surface portion 36 of the height portion, the measurement is located in front of or on the side of the height portion 35. The person can easily measure the length of the hand 16 by extending the arm and placing the wrist 10 and the palm on the wrist contact portion 7 and the palm placement portion 5.

The wrist contact portion 7 which is an inclined surface is formed by a concave curved surface which is recessed with respect to the scale portion 2 of the hand length. Since the radial carpal joint 15 in the wrist joint is an elliptical joint (see FIG. 12), the contact of the wrist 10 with the concave curved surface of the wrist 10 is natural and stable. The concave curved surface is preferably depressed most at the center in the width direction. The concave curved surface preferably has an upper end edge 12 longer than the lower end edge 13 and gradually shorter from the upper end edge 12 to the lower end edge 13. That is, the concave curved surface of the wrist contact portion 7 is an overall tapered funnel-like groove, whereby the wrist 10 is more easily and stably brought into contact with the wrist contact portion 7.

The foot length measuring unit 21 has a heel support unit 26 erected from the foot placement unit 25, and a pair of foot heels placed on the foot placement unit 25 are applied to the foot support unit 26. The length of the foot is measured by the scale portion 22. In the case shown in the drawing, the heel pad 26 is included in the height portion 35 as a part of the height portion 35.

A foot length measurement unit 21 is connected to the height measurement unit 31 via a rotating attachment unit such as a hinge at the lower end, and the foot length measurement unit 21 can be folded with respect to the height measurement unit 31. . The hand length measuring unit, the foot length measuring unit, and the height measuring unit are made of wood such as a heel, but may be made of other materials.

Since hand length is measured easily and accurately, it is effective for selecting gloves that match the size of the user's hand (normal gloves, professional gloves, various sports gloves, etc.) It can be used in industry. The left and right foot sizes (length and width) are not exactly the same, and there is a difference in size between morning and evening. The size of both feet can be measured at the same time, and it is effective in selecting footwear (ordinary shoes, various sports shoes, etc.) that fits the size of the user's foot, and can be used in industry related to these. . In addition, by measuring the size of hands and feet together with the height, for example, it is possible to observe the growth and growth status of infants and children from three viewpoints, which can be used in industry related to these. It is.
