Abstract

The invention relates to a heat-regulating sock (1) with padding in certain areas, worn especially for leisure sports such as jogging, in line skating, skiing and similar. The aim of the invention is to especially provide a means of conducting sweat out of the shoe, to the outside. To this end, the inventive sock has at least one integrated airway (3) extending from the sole (2) to the top of the sock, said airway (3) consisting of heat-regulating netted fabric.

Description

Die Erfindung richtet sich auf einen klimaregulierenden Strumpf mit bereichsweise vorgesehener Polsterung, insbesondere zum Einsatz bei Freizeitsportarten, wie Joggen, Inline-Skating, Skilaufen od. dgl.The invention is directed to a climate regulating stocking with areas provided padding, especially for use in recreational sports, such as Jogging, inline skating, skiing or the like

In allen Fällen, in denen die menschlichen Füße in vergleichsweise dichtem Schuhwerk untergebracht sind, entsteht erhöhter Schweißanfall. Über die normalen Bewegungen hinaus entsteht ein überdurchschnittlicher Schweißanfall bei die Füße stärker beanspruchenden laufenden Bewegungsarten, wie Wandern, Fußballspielen, Joggen od. dgl., oder auch beim sportlichen Radfahren. Man ist daher bemüht, dem Schuhträger Strümpfe zur Verfügung zu stellen, die einen möglichst guten Abtransport des Schweißanfalls nach außen fördern.In all cases where the human feet are comparatively dense Footwear are housed, there is increased sweating. About the normal Movements beyond this result in an above-average sweating of the feet more demanding types of walking, such as hiking, playing soccer, Jogging or the like, or also during sporty cycling. One tries therefore to provide the shoe wearer with stockings that are as good as possible Promote the removal of the sweat to the outside.

Aus EP-A-0 626 140 ist ein Strumpf bekannt, bei dem Kanäle für die Luftzirkulation vorgesehen sind. Diese erstrecken sich aber im Oberfußbereich senkrecht zu einem Bereich, der der Weiterleitung von Flüssigkeit dient. Aus US-A-4 126 903 ist ein Nylonstrumpf bekannt, bei dem Bereiche mit einer größeren Maschenweite vorgesehen sind, die zur Kühlung der Hautoberfläche dienen. Im wesentlichen das Gleiche zeigt der aus US-A-4 057 981 bekannte Strumpf, wobei der Bereich mit einer größeren Maschenweite zu beiden Seiten der Strumpfsohle vorgesehen sein soll. Schließlich offenbart US-A-5 636 380 eine Kombination von Bereichen, die Wärme zurückhalten und Wärme abgeben. Keines der genannten Dokumente gibt einen Hinweis auf die nachfolgend beanspruchte Lösung nach der Erfindung. From EP-A-0 626 140 a stocking is known in which channels for the Air circulation is provided. But these extend in the upper foot area perpendicular to an area that is used to transfer liquid. Out US-A-4 126 903 discloses a nylon stocking in which areas with a Larger mesh sizes are provided to cool the skin surface serve. Essentially the same is shown by that known from US-A-4,057,981 Stocking, the area with a larger mesh size on either side of the Stocking sole should be provided. Finally, US-A-5 636 380 discloses one Combination of areas that retain heat and give off heat. None of the mentioned documents gives an indication of the following claims Solution according to the invention.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, den aus EP-A-626 140 bekannten Strumpf so weiterzuentwickeln, daß der Schweiß aus dem Schuh heraus nach außen abgeführt werden kann. Gemäß der Erfindung wird diese Aufgabe bei einem klimaregulierenden Strumpf der eingangs genannten Art gelöst durch wenigstens einen von der Fußsohle bis zum Bund reichenden integrierten Luftkanal aus klimaregulierendem Netzstrickgewebe.The invention has for its object the known from EP-A-626 140 Develop stocking so that the sweat comes out of the shoe can be discharged outside. According to the invention, this object is achieved in one climate regulating stocking of the type mentioned solved by at least an integrated air duct extending from the sole of the foot to the waistband climate regulating mesh knit fabric.

Ein Klimakanal aus regulierendem Netzstrickgewebe hat den Vorteil, daß nur etwa 60 % der Hautoberfläche bedeckt wird, der größte Teil der entstehenden Feuchtigkeit kann über den unbedeckten Teil der Haut verdunsten, der restliche Teil kann vom Gewebe aufgenommen werden. Darüber hinaus kann ein solches Gewebe auch zur Förderung der Schweißfeuchtigkeit aus dem Sohlenbereich des Schuhs bis in einen Bereich des Strumpfes dienen, in dem eine freie Verdunstung möglich ist.A climate channel made of regulating mesh knit has the advantage that only about 60% of the skin surface is covered, most of the moisture that is generated can evaporate the uncovered part of the skin, the remaining part can be absorbed by the tissue. In addition, a such fabric also to promote perspiration moisture from the sole area of the shoe to an area of the Serve stockings in which free evaporation is possible is.

In Ausgestaltung ist vorgesehen, daß ein Luftkanal auf beiden Außenseiten des Strumpfes vorgesehen ist, d.h. auf der Außen- und der Innenseite des Beines des Strumpfträgers.In an embodiment it is provided that an air duct on both Outside of the stocking is provided, i.e. on the Outside and inside of the leg of the garter.

Die Erfindung sieht auch vor, daß der Strumpf wenigstens im Fußspannbereich mit einem Polster bzw. Padding aus klimaregulierendem Gewebe ausgerüstet ist, wobei ein solches Polster zur Verminderung von Druckstellen im Bereich des Schuhschnürens dienen kann, da die auftretenden Belastungen großflächig verteilt werden, die klimaregulierenden Gewebe sorgen für die Belüftung der Haut und den Abtransport der Schweißfeuchtigkeit, wobei diese Gewebe je nach Verwendungszweck des Strumpfes unterschiedliche Dichten aufweisen können.The invention also provides that the stocking at least in Foot area with a cushion or padding made of climate-regulating Fabric is equipped, such a cushion to reduce pressure points in the area of Shoe lacing can serve as the loads that occur the climate-regulating fabrics are distributed over a large area provide for the ventilation of the skin and the removal of the Perspiration moisture, these tissues depending on the intended use of the stocking have different densities can.

An dieser Stelle sei bemerkt, daß z.B. Skistrümpfe bekannt sind, die unterschiedliche Gewebe im unmittelbaren Fußbereich einerseits und im unteren Wadenbereich andererseits verwenden. Bekannt ist auch, Polster bzw. Verstärkungen im Schienbeinbereich vorzusehen, um eine bessere Polsterung im Skischuh oder z.B. Fußballschuh zu erreichen.At this point it should be noted that e.g. Ski stockings known are different tissues in the immediate foot area on the one hand and in the lower calf area on the other use. It is also known to upholstery or reinforcements in the Shin area to provide better padding in the Ski boot or e.g. Reaching soccer shoe.

Weitere Vorteile und Einzelheiten der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den sonstigen Unteransprüchen, wobei beispielsweise auch im Wadenbereich Polsterungen aus klimaregulierendem Gewebe vorgesehen sein können, die stabförmig, bogenförmig, spiralförmig oder in anderer Weise angeordnet sein können, etwa als wadenbildende Struktur od. dgl.Further advantages and details of the invention result itself from the other subclaims, for example Also in the calf area, upholstery made of climate-regulating Fabrics can be provided which are rod-shaped, arch-shaped, can be arranged spirally or in some other way, about as a calf-forming structure or the like.

Eine Besonderheit des erfindungsgemäßen Strumpfes kann in weiterer Ausgestaltung auch darin bestehen, daß dieser in einer integrierten X-Cross-Bandage aus einem elastischen Gewebeband ausgerüstet ist, wobei dieses elastische Gewebeband aus klimaregulierendem Gewebe besteht.A special feature of the stocking according to the invention can be found in further development also consist in that this in an integrated X-Cross bandage made of an elastic Fabric tape is equipped, this elastic fabric tape consists of climate-regulating fabric.

Zur Bildung eines anatomisch geformten Fußbettes, das auf die unterschiedliche Belastung der Fußsohle eines Menschen Rücksicht nimmt, sieht die Erfindung Polster oder Paddings im Zehen-, Ballen- und/oder Fersenbereich vor.To form an anatomically shaped footbed that the different load on the sole of a person's foot The invention sees upholstery or padding in the toe, ball and / or heel area.

Darüber hinaus kann es vorteilhaft sein, im Spannbereich wenigstens bereichsweise ein Stretch-Rippengewebe vorzusehen, wiederum als klimaregulierendes Gewebe in Rippenstrickart. Bei dieser Strickart liegt das Gewebe nicht vollständig auf der Haut auf, wodurch mehr Luft an die Haut gelangen kann. Gleichzeitig wird durch die Rippenstrickart erreicht, daß das Gewebe eine höhere Elastizität aufweist und damit einer Faltenbildung des Strumpfes vorbeugt ebenso wie ein Rutschen des Fußes im Strumpf bzw. Schuh, was dazu fühlt, daß es weniger zur Blasenbildung kommt.In addition, it can be advantageous in the clamping area to provide a stretch rib fabric at least in some areas, again as a climate-regulating fabric in rib knit style. The fabric does not lie with this type of knitting completely on the skin, creating more air to the skin can reach. At the same time, thanks to the rib knit style achieved that the fabric has a higher elasticity and thus prevents wrinkling of the stocking like a slipping of the foot in the stocking or shoe, what about that feels that there is less blistering.

Um ein anatomisch geformtes Fußbett zu gewährleisten, ist die Sohle des Strumpfes mit zusätzlichen Polstern oder Paddings 10 und 11 ausgerüstet, insbesondere im Fersenbereich und im Fußballenbereich und/oder im Bereich der Zehen.To ensure an anatomically shaped footbed, is the sole of the stocking with additional pads or paddings 10 and 11 equipped, especially in Heel area and in the ball area and / or in the area of the toes.

In Fig. 2 ist eine Variante des Ausführungsbeispieles des erfindungsgemäßen Strumpfes gezeigt, der speziell für Skater angefertigt und konzipiert ist. Die Polstergewebe, die Paddings und die sonstigen Ausgestaltungen sind je nach Strumpfart gegenüber dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 1 geringfügig abgewandelt, wobei hier im Vordergrund u.a. auch die X-Cross-Bandagierung des Fußgelenkes steht. 2 is a variant of the embodiment of the stocking according to the invention shown, the specifically is made and designed for skaters. The upholstery fabrics, the paddings and other designs are depending on the type of stocking compared to the embodiment 1 slightly modified, here in the foreground also the X-Cross bandaging of the Ankle stands.

In Fig. 3 sind zusätzliche Bandagen dargestellt, so oberhalb des Knöchels eine Ringbandage 12 und darunter eine weitere Bandagierung 13, wobei diese Bandagierungen unterschiedliche Streckarten und Elastizitäten aufweisen können. Zusätzlich ist dargestellt, daß eine die Fußsohle zwischen Ballen und Ferse stützende Diagonalbandagierung 14 vorgesehen sein kann, was in vielen Fällen zu erhöhtem Lauf- und Tragkomfort führt.In Fig. 3 additional bandages are shown, so above of the ankle a ring bandage 12 and one below further bandage 13, these bandages being different Stretch types and elasticities can have. In addition, it is shown that the sole of the foot between Bale and heel supporting diagonal bandage 14 is provided can be what in many cases leads to increased running and Comfort leads.

An dieser Stelle sei noch angegeben, daß die Polsterungen des Strumpfes aus Hohlkammer-Fasern, die mit Wolle oder Baumwolle umsponnen sind, bestehen können. Die Hohlkammer-Kunststoffgarne sind besonders stark stoß- und druckdämpfend.At this point it should be stated that the upholstery of the stocking made of hollow fiber with wool or Cotton are wound, can exist. The hollow chamber plastic yarns are particularly shock and pressure absorbing.

Das Fußbett ist aus ummantelter Microfaser gestrickt, die äußersit geschmeidig ist und den Abrieb/Hautabrieb vermindert. Auch im Zehen- und Fersenbereich ist je nach Anforderung das Fußbett aus 100 % Microfaser. Der Achillessehnen-Protector aus Kunststoffgarnen oder Compound-Gewebe und -Garn oder andere Materialien schützt die Achillessehne. Die Bandagen werden auch aus nicht elastischen und elastischen Garnen gewebt, gestrickt, um eine hohe Stabilität zu erreichen.The footbed is knitted from covered microfiber, which is extremely smooth and reduces abrasion / skin abrasion. Also in the toe and heel area is depending on the requirement the footbed made of 100% microfiber. The Achilles tendon protector made of plastic yarns or compound fabrics and - Yarn or other materials protect the Achilles tendon. The bandages are also made of non-elastic and elastic Yarn woven, knitted for high stability to reach.

Das Netzgewebe/Gestrick im Air-Channel besteht aus klimaregulierenden Hohlkammer-Kunststoffgarnen, die auch ummantelt werden mitanderenKunststoff-, Woll-und/oder Baumwollgarnen. Aus diesem Compound-Garn entsteht ein feuchtigkeitsabsorbierendes und feuchtigkeitstransportierendes Netzstrickgewebe. Das Netzstrickgewebe (Air-Channel) bedeckt die Haut nicht voll, sondern läßt je nach Anforderungen Teile der Haut unbedeckt, so daß Schweißtropfen auf der Haut entstehen können, die dann in das Netz abtropfen und von dort aus abtransportiert werden. Eine erhöhte Verdunstungskälte/Kühlung entsteht. Microfaser-, Polyester-, Acryl-Paddings in den verschiedenen Fußzonen sorgen für mechanische, thermische Entlastung oder Dämpfung und Dämmung.The mesh / knitted fabric in the air channel consists of climate regulating Hollow chamber plastic yarns that are also coated with other plastic, wool and / or cotton yarns. This compound yarn creates a moisture-absorbent and moisture-wicking mesh knit fabric. The mesh knit fabric (air channel) covers the Skin not full, but leaves parts depending on requirements the skin uncovered, so that sweat drops form on the skin can then drip into the network and from there to be transported away. Increased evaporative cooling / cooling arises. Microfiber, polyester, acrylic paddings in the different foot zones provide mechanical, thermal relief or damping and insulation.

Natürlich ist das beschriebene Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung noch in vielfacher Hinsicht abzuändern, ohne den Grundgedanken zu verlassen. So kann der Strumpf als Links/ Rechts-Strumpf ausgebildet sein, die Gestaltung der Polster kann von der hier dargestellten abweichen u. dgl. mehr.Of course, the described embodiment of the invention still change in many ways without the To leave basic ideas. So the stocking can be used as a left / Right stocking be formed, the design of the upholstery may differ from the one shown here. Like. more.
