Abstract

1. A sock (1, 10, 20) which is made of threads (4, 12) as knitted or woven knitwear in which sock the knitwear has supporting elements (5) formed as thread arcs, directed towards the foot when worn on the leg, which serve to generate motion of the knitwear away from the foot with leg motions, characterised in that the supporting elements are formed as stitches of a loop plush in which the loops are directed towards the sock foot and have the form of an exposed thread arc.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Socke, welche als aus Fäden gestrickte oder gewirkte Maschenware hergestellt ist, bei welcher die Maschenware mit beim Tragen an dem Bein gegen den Fuss gerichtete, als Fadenbogen ausgebildete Halteelemente aufweist, die zur Erzeugung einer Bewegung der Maschenware vom Fuss weg bei Beinbewegungen dienen, und ein Verfahren zur Herstellung der Socke.The invention relates to a sock which is made as knitted or knitted from threads, in which the knitted fabric with holding elements directed towards the foot when worn on the leg, designed as a thread arch, for generating a movement of the knitted fabric away from the foot during leg movements serve, and a method of manufacturing the sock.

Socken, die Haltelemente aufweisen, mit welchen das Abrutschen derselben vom Bein vermieden werden soll, sind in verschiedenen Ausführungsformen bekannt. Bei den meisten Ausführungsformen werden bei der als Gestrick oder Gewirke hergestellten Maschenware zusätzliche Fäden vorgesehen, welche aus einem gummielastischen Material oder einem Strech-Material hergestellt sind. Mit einem solchen Fadenmaterial kann zwar erreicht werden, dass die Socke am Beim haftet, jedoch besteht der Nachteil, dass durch die Elastizität des Fadenmaterials das Bein abgeschnürt wird, wodurch die Blutzirkulation behindert wird. Bei längerem Tragen einer solchen Socke kann dadurch das Wohlbefinden des Trägers erheblich beeinträchtigt werden.Socks which have holding elements with which the slipping of the same from the leg are to be avoided are known in various embodiments. In most embodiments, additional threads are provided in the knitted or knitted fabric, which are made of a rubber-elastic material or a stretch material. With such a thread material it can be achieved that the sock adheres to the case, but there is the disadvantage that the leg is pinched off by the elasticity of the thread material, which impedes the blood circulation. If such a sock is worn for a long time, the well-being of the wearer can be significantly impaired.

Bei einer weiteren bekannten Ausführungsform einer Socke (EP 0 068 455) wird der geschilderte Nachteil dadurch vermieden, dass auf der Innenseite der Maschenware Halteelemente gebildet werden, welche die Form von konkaven, gegen den Fussteil der Socke gerichteten Fadenbogen aufweisen. Bei Beinbewegungen des Sockenträgers, beispielsweise beim Gehen, ändert sich der Umfag des Beines, was zur Folge hat, dass sie Fadenbogen gestreckt und wieder entspannt werden. Da jedoch der Fadenbogen nicht mehr in seine ursprüngliche Lage zurückgeht, sondern höher liegt, ist damit eine Gesamtbewegung und damit eine Straffung der Maschenware vom Fuss weg verbunden; die Socke wird somit bei jeder Aenderung des Beinumfanges wieder gespannt. Wesentlich ist hierbei, dass mit diesem Glattziehen der Maschenware keine Einschnürung am Beinumfang verbunden ist. Die Blutzirkulation wird in keiner Weise behindert, trotzdem die Maschenware dauernd geglättet und faltenlos am Bein des Trägers anliegt.In a further known embodiment of a sock (EP 0 068 455), the described disadvantage is avoided in that holding elements are formed on the inside of the knitted fabric, which have the form of concave thread arches directed against the foot part of the sock. When the sock wearer moves his leg, for example when walking, the leg's circumference changes, which means that the thread arches are stretched and relaxed again. However, since the thread bow no longer returns to its original position, but lies higher, this results in an overall movement and thus a tightening of the knitted fabric away from the foot; the sock is thus stretched again every time the leg circumference is changed. It is essential here that this knitting of the knitted fabric does not result in a constriction on the leg circumference. The blood circulation is not hindered in any way, despite the fact that the knitted fabric is continuously smoothed and lies wrinkle-free against the wearer's leg.

Die Herstellung solcher Fadenbögen an der Maschenware der bekannten Ausführungsform ist jedoch verhältnismässig aufwendig, was sie Einführung in der Praxis erschwert.The production of such thread sheets on the knitted fabric of the known embodiment is, however, relatively complex, which makes it difficult to introduce in practice.

Es ist deshalb Aufgabe der Erfindung, eine Socke der eingangs beschriebenen Art so auszugestalten, das unter Beibehaltung des Straffungseffektes der Maschenware eine wesentliche Steigerung der Produktionsgeschwindigkeit möglich ist.It is therefore an object of the invention to design a sock of the type described in the introduction in such a way that a substantial increase in the production speed is possible while maintaining the tightening effect of the knitted fabric.

Diese Aufgabe wird gemäss der Erfindung dadurch gelöst, dass die Halteelemente als Maschen eines Henkelplüsches ausgebildet sind, bei welchem die Henkel gegen den Sockenfuss gerichtet sind und die Form freiliegender Fasenbogen aufweisen. Dadurch wird erreicht, dass die Produktionsgeschwindigkeit der erfindungsgemässen Socke mindestens auf das gleiche Mass gesteigert werden kann wie die Geschwindigkeit bei der Herstellung von Henkelplüsch.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the holding elements are designed as stitches of a plush handle, in which the handles are directed against the sock foot and have the shape of exposed bevel arches. It is thereby achieved that the production speed of the sock according to the invention can be increased at least to the same extent as the speed in the manufacture of plush handles.

Zweckmässig sind hierbei die Halteelemente Maschen, welche aus Doppelfäden gebildet sind, von denen der eine Faden der Grundfaden als Teil des Grundgewirkes oder Grundgestrickes und der andere Faden der den Henkel bildenden Plüschfaden ist. Hierbei ist es vorteilhaft, je nach Art des für die Herstellung der Maschenware verwendeten Fadenmaterials die Henkel in jeder Masche oder in jeder zweiten Masche des Grundgewirkes oder Grundgestrickes gebildet sind.The holding elements are expediently stitches, which are formed from double threads, of which one thread is the basic thread as part of the basic knitted fabric or basic knitted fabric and the other thread is the plush thread forming the handle. It is advantageous here, depending on the type of thread material used for the manufacture of the knitwear, for the handles to be formed in every stitch or in every second stitch of the basic knitted fabric or basic knitted fabric.

Die Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung in einigen Ausführungsbeispielen dargelegt und nachfolgend beschrieben.The invention is illustrated in the drawing in some exemplary embodiments and described below.

  • 2 shows a schematically represented side view of a sock according to the invention,
  • 3 is a spatial, exploded view of the manufacture of the sock of FIG. 2nd
  • 4 shows a detail of the knitted fabric of a sock according to FIG. 2 with a handle designed as a holding element in each stitch,

In Fig. 1 ist eine Socke 1, beispielweise eine Herrensocke, schematisch dargestellt, welche in bekannter Art als Henkelplüsch gestrickt ist. Der Strickvorgang beginnt hierbei am Ende A des Sockenschaftes 2 mit einem normalen Anschlag. Dann wird in B der Sockenrand gestrickt, in welchen elastisch, z.B. Gummifäden eingelegt sind. Es folgt dann in C das Sockenrohr, in welchem verschiedene Strickbindungen eingestrickt werden können, worauf dann die Ferse D und anschliessend der Fuss E gestrickt wird, welcher ebenfalls mit Plüschhenkeln gestrickt werden kann. Hierauf wird die Sockenspitze F in gleicher Weise wie die Ferse D gestrickt. Mit G ist die Kettelzone bezeichnet, welche zum Schliessen der Spitze dient. Damit ist der Strickvorgang beendet.In Fig. 1 a sock 1, for example a men's sock, is shown schematically, which is knitted in a known manner as a plush handle. The knitting process begins at the end A of the sock shaft 2 with a normal stop. Then the edge of the socks is knitted in B, in which elastic, e.g. Rubber threads are inserted. The sock tube then follows in C, in which various knitted ties can be knitted in, whereupon heel D and then foot E are knitted, which can also be knitted with plush handles. The tip of the sock F is then knitted in the same way as the heel D. With G the chain zone is designated, which serves to close the tip. This ends the knitting process.

Im Sockenrohr C ist in einem Fenster das Gestricke vergrössert dargestellt. Typisch ist hierbei, das die Maschenköpfe 3 und damit auch die gleichzeitig mit einem Plüschfaden 4 angestrickten Henkel 5 vom Sockenfuss weg gegen den Sockenrand A gerichtet sind.The knitted fabric is shown enlarged in a window in the sock tube C. It is typical here that the mesh heads 3 and thus also the handles 5 knitted at the same time with a plush thread 4 are directed away from the sock foot against the sock edge A.

Die Erfindung geht nun von der Ueberlegung aus, dass es zweckmässig wäre, wenn zur Ereichung einer grossen Produktionskapazität derselbe Strickvorgang zur Herstellung von Henkelplüsch verwendet werden könnte, um die aus Fadenbogen gebildeten Halteelemente in gleicher Weise mit den Maschen einzustricken, durch deren Formgebung die Straffungsfunktion des Sockenschaftes 2 zuverlässig erreicht wird.The invention is based on the consideration that it would be expedient if the same knitting process could be used to produce plush handles in order to achieve a large production capacity in order to embroider the holding elements formed from thread bows in the same way with the stitches through which Shaping the tightening function of the sock shaft 2 is reliably achieved.

Es hat sich nun überraschend gezeigt, dass dieses Zeil mit dem Umkehren des Strickvorganges erreicht werden kann. Dies ist in Fig. 2 mit einer Socke 10 dargestellt, bei welcher der Strickvorgang bei I, d.h. bei der Kettelzone, beginnt und nach dem Stricken der Spitze II, des Fusses 111, der Ferse IV, des Sockenrohres V, des Sockenrandes VI am Rand VII endet. In den im Sockenrohr V dargestellten Fenster ist das Gestricke vergrössert dargestellt. In diesem Fall zeigen die Maschenköpfe 3 nach oben, während gestrickte Henkel 5 nach abwärts gegen den Sockenfuss zeigen. Der Strickvorgang erlaubt es zudem, den Henkeln 5 die Form eines Fadenbogens zu geben, der bei einer Aenderung des Beinumfanges, z.B., beim Gehen, in Richtung des Randes VII klettert und damit die Straffungsfunktion der Socke erfüllt.It has now surprisingly been found that this line can be achieved by reversing the knitting process. This is shown in Fig. 2 with a sock 10 in which the knitting process at I, i.e. at the chain zone begins and ends after knitting the tip II, the foot 111, the heel IV, the sock tube V, the sock edge VI at the edge VII. The knitted fabric is shown enlarged in the window shown in the sock tube V. In this case the stitch heads 3 point upwards, while knitted handles 5 point downwards against the sock foot. The knitting process also makes it possible to give the handles 5 the shape of a thread bow, which climbs in the direction of the edge VII when the leg circumference changes, for example when walking, and thus fulfills the tightening function of the sock.

In Fig. 3 ist die bekannte Plüschherstellung, die nun auch für die Herstellung der erfindungsgemässen Socke benützt wird, schematisch dargestellt. Aus einem Grundfaden 11 und einem Plüschfaden 4 werden mittels Stricknadeln 12 Doppelmaschen 13 gestrickt, während mittels des Plüschfadens 4 durch Plüschplatinen 14 die Henkel in der vorbestimmten Form als Halteelemente gebildet werden.In Fig. 3 the known plush production, which is now also used for the production of the sock according to the invention, is shown schematically. From a basic thread 11 and a plush thread 4 12 double stitches 13 are knitted by means of knitting needles, while by means of the plush thread 4 by plush sinkers 14 the handles are formed in the predetermined shape as holding elements.

In Fig. 4 und 5 sind zwei Gestricke mit abwärts gerichteten, als Henkel 5 ausgebildeten Halteelementen dargestellt. Beim Gestricke nach Fig. 4 sind die als Halteelemente ausgebildeten Henkel 5 in jeder Masche und in Fig. 5 in jeder zweiten Masche eingestrickt. Das Gestricke nach Fig. 4 zeigt eine für das Stricken einer Wollsocke geeignete Maschenkonstruktion aufweist, mit welcher zweckmässig eine Baumwollsocke gestrickt wird.4 and 5 two knitted fabrics are shown with downward holding elements 5 designed as handles. 4, the handles 5 designed as holding elements are knitted in every stitch and in FIG. 5 in every other stitch. The knitted fabric according to FIG. 4 shows a mesh construction suitable for knitting a wool sock, with which a cotton sock is expediently knitted.

In Fig. 6 ist eine Socke 20 dargestellt, deren Maschenware im Sockenrohr mit zwei aufeinanderliegenden Gestricken 23, 24 gebildet ist. Hierbei wird das innenliegende Gestricke 24 so hergestellt, dass es beim Einstülpen in das Innere der Socke 20 Henkel 5 aufweist, die als konkave, gegen den Sockenfuss gerichtete Halteelemente geformt sind. Das aussenliegende Gestrick 23 kann hierbei eine beliebige Maschenkonstruktion aufweisen. Ebenso kann auch der Fuss mit einer andern Maschenkonstruktion gestrickt sein. Trotzdem wird durch das innenliegende Gestrick 24 mit den als Halteelementen ausgebildeten Henkeln 5 die Straffungsfunktion der Socke gewährleistet.6 shows a sock 20, the knitted fabric of which is formed in the sock tube with two knitted fabrics 23, 24 lying one on top of the other. Here, the inner knitted fabric 24 is produced in such a way that when it is turned inside the sock 20 it has handles 5 which are shaped as concave holding elements directed against the sock foot. The outer knitted fabric 23 can have any mesh construction. The foot can also be knitted with a different mesh construction. Nevertheless, the inner knitted fabric 24 with the handles 5 designed as holding elements ensures the tightening function of the sock.

Dadurch, dass die die Straffungsfunktion der Socke 1, 10, 20 ausübenden Halteelemente als speziell geformte Henkel 5 ausgebildet sind, kann die Socke in rationeller Produktion hergestellt werden, wobei der Aufwand nicht grösser ist als bei der Herstellung eines normalen Henkelplüsches.Due to the fact that the holding elements which perform the tightening function of the socks 1, 10, 20 are designed as specially shaped handles 5, the socks can be produced in a rational manner, the effort not being greater than in the production of a normal plush handle.
