Description

Dispositivo para ponerse calcetines.Device for putting on socks.

La invención se refiere a un dispositivo para ponerse calcetines, que tiene una parte de pedestal, como rangua, y un sujetador de calcetines que sobresale del pedestal hacia arriba, tiene forma de conducto y está destinado para que un pie se inserte dentro del mismo para colocarse un calcetín.The invention relates to a device for put on socks, which has a pedestal part, such as rangua, and a sock bra protruding from the pedestal up, It has a duct shape and is intended for a foot to be inserted inside it to put on a sock.

Para ponerse calcetines, los documentos DE-A-19700938 y US-A-6102262 dan a conocer dispositivos auxiliares, cuyos sujetadores de calcetines con forma de conducto, que están fijados a un pedestal, están cerrados por todos los lados en dirección radial. Aquí radica la desventaja porque el pie, junto con el talón, no puede sacarse del sujetador de calcetines, y por tanto, resulta imposible ponerse un calcetín completamente. Por consiguiente, el movimiento de inserción en el sujetador de calcetines con forma de conducto termina, como mucho, con el contacto de los dedos con el pedestal.To put on socks, the documents DE-A-19700938 and US-A-6102262 unveil auxiliary devices, whose shaped sock holders duct, which are fixed to a pedestal, are closed by all sides in radial direction. Here lies the disadvantage because the foot, along with the heel, cannot be removed from the bra of socks, and therefore, it is impossible to put on a sock completely. Therefore, the insertion movement in the duct-shaped sock bra ends at most with the contact of the fingers with the pedestal.

Los documentos DE-A-4315338, GB-A-2338172 y US-A-5082154 dan a conocer dispositivos para ponerse calcetines, cuyos sujetadores de calcetines están abiertos por un lado a lo largo de toda la longitud del conducto, lo que puede provocar que el pie, insertado por la parte superior y cubierto por el calcetín, se salga del sujetador de calcetines de nuevo en el sentido de su lado abierto. Sin embargo, tales diseños tienen un borde superior incompleto del sujetador de calcetines, que termina en unos bordes agudos que hacen que los calcetines se sujeten ahí vacilantemente, lo que dificulta el deslizamiento de los calcetines sobre los bordes agudos y también que la sección transversal de la abertura del sujetador de calcetines para la inserción del pie adopte una forma desfavorable.Documents DE-A-4315338, GB-A-2338172 and US-A-5082154 unveil devices for putting on socks, whose bras socks are open on one side along the entire length of the duct, which can cause the foot, inserted by the top and covered by the sock, get out of the bra of socks again in the direction of its open side. Without However, such designs have an incomplete upper edge of the bra socks, which ends in sharp edges that make that the socks are held there hesitantly, which makes it difficult the sliding of the socks over the sharp edges and also that the cross section of the fastener opening of socks for foot insertion take a shape unfavorable.

Es el objetivo de la invención encontrar un dispositivo para ponerse calcetines del tipo, tal como se ha mencionado al principio, que evita las desventajas anteriormente mencionadas, el cual tendría un diseño sencillo y compacto y, junto con su facilidad de fabricación, garantizaría una forma de funcionar fiable y sencilla.It is the object of the invention to find a device for putting on socks of the type, such as mentioned at the beginning, which avoids the disadvantages above mentioned, which would have a simple and compact design and, together with its ease of manufacturing, it would guarantee a way of working Reliable and simple.

En el ejemplo ilustrado de la realización, el dispositivo 1 para ponerse calcetines (en lo sucesivo llamado "el dispositivo 1") tiene, por ejemplo, un pedestal 2, hecho de una tabla de madera, que dota al dispositivo 1 de una rangua 3 para fijar su posición de uso indicada. En este pedestal 2 está fijado un sujetador 4 de calcetines con forma de conducto, y esencialmente, el sujetador de calcetines sobresale verticalmente hacia arriba.In the illustrated example of the embodiment, the device 1 to put on socks (hereinafter referred to as "the device 1 ") has, for example, a pedestal 2, made of a wooden board, which gives device 1 a rangua 3 for Set your indicated usage position. On this pedestal 2 a bra 4 of duct-shaped socks, and essentially, the sock bra protrudes vertically towards above.

El sujetador 4 de calcetines está cerrado por todos los lados en la dirección circunferencial en una zona 5 de conducto tubular, más larga, superior, y en su zona 6 de conducto frontal, inferior, está dotado de una abertura 7 para pies que se redondea a medida que asciende y es lo suficientemente grande como para permitir que el pie, insertado en el sujetador 4 de calcetines, salga con su zona frontal del sujetador 4 de calcetines hasta que se apoye en el pedestal 2 plano. De esta manera, el calcetín, colocado con anterioridad sobre el sujetador 4 de calcetines tan ancho como sea posible, se coloca sobre el pie en su totalidad. Un reborde 9 en el borde del canto 8 ayuda al deslizamiento sin complicaciones hacia dentro de la pierna de la media sobre el borde anular de la abertura 8 desde su posición, donde rodea el sujetador 4 de calcetines por el exterior.Bra 4 of socks is closed by all sides in the circumferential direction in an area 5 of tubular duct, longer, superior, and in its duct zone 6 front, bottom, is equipped with an opening 7 for feet that rounds as it rises and is large enough to allow the foot, inserted into the bra 4 of socks, go out with your front area of the sock bra 4 until it rests on the flat 2 pedestal. In this way, the sock, previously placed on bra 4 of socks as wide as possible, is placed on the foot in your whole. A flange 9 on the edge of the edge 8 helps the uncomplicated sliding into the leg of the half over the annular edge of the opening 8 from its position, where the bra 4 of socks around the outside surrounds.

En una realización preferida, el sujetador 4 de calcetines con forma de conducto o con forma de caña de bota, según sea el caso, está hecho de una lámina de plástico fácilmente flexible y tiene una junta 10 frontal de cierre que va desde el borde de la abertura 8 hasta la abertura 7 para pies, estando formada esta junta por unos bordes 11, 12 de lámina que se acoplan una dentro de la otra. Aquí, uno de los bordes 11 de lámina, por ejemplo, tiene una sección transversal en V para formar la ranura 13 para alojar el otro borde 12 de lámina.In a preferred embodiment, the bra 4 of duct-shaped or boot-shaped socks, depending on Whatever the case, it is made of a plastic sheet easily flexible and has a front seal 10 that goes from the edge of the opening 8 to the opening 7 for feet, being formed this joint by edges 11, 12 of sheet that are coupled one inside the other. Here, one of the foil edges 11, by example, it has a cross section in V to form the groove 13 to accommodate the other edge 12 of sheet.

Con los bordes 11, 12 de lámina sosteniéndose así el uno en el otro, la lámina de plástico doblada circularmente del sujetador 4 de calcetines puede permanecer en una forma estable bajo una tensión previa, que intenta juntar el sujetador 4 de calcetines estrecho con forma de caña de bota hasta un diámetro más pequeño. Por otra parte, cuando se inserta un pie en la zona de conducto que está estrechándose del sujetador 4 de calcetines ligeramente cónico, que se estrecha hacia abajo, el sujetador 4 de calcetines puede abombarse elásticamente en esa zona hasta un diámetro más grande con relativamente menos resistencia, haciendo que el pie se mueva hacia fuera a través de la abertura para pies, mientras que en la región del borde de la abertura 8, los bordes 11, 12 de lámina permanecen acoplados el uno con el otro. En comparación con las realizaciones conocidas, el sujetador 4 de calcetines puede tener de esta manera un espacio esencialmente más estrecho dentro del conducto, junto con la ventaja de que el calcetín se ajuste mejor sobre el pie y la pantorrilla.With the edges 11, 12 of foil holding like this on each other, the circularly folded plastic sheet of the 4 sock bra can remain in a stable form under a pre-tension, which tries to join the bra 4 of socks Narrow boot-shaped up to a smaller diameter. On the other hand, when a foot is inserted into the duct area that is narrowing the bra 4 socks slightly conical, which narrows down, the bra 4 of socks it can be swelled elastically in that area to a diameter more large with relatively less resistance, making the foot move out through the foot opening while in the region of the edge of the opening 8, the edges 11, 12 of sheet remain coupled with each other. In comparison with known embodiments, sock bra 4 can have in this way an essentially narrower space inside of the duct, along with the advantage that the sock fits better on the foot and calf.

Después de que el calcetín se ha deslizado totalmente sobre el borde 9 con reborde y el usuario se lo ha puesto completamente sin usar una mano, éste puede salir fácilmente del dispositivo 1, puesto que se mantiene firmemente sobre el suelo. El dispositivo 1 ejerce, con una fuerza adecuada a través de la carga asociada de la parte 2 de pedestal por parte del pie, una fuerza sobre la pared de la lámina del sujetador 4 de calcetines con forma de conducto, la fuerza doblando abierta la pared y dando lugar a una abertura adecuada para este fin entre los bordes 11, 12 de lámina.After the sock has slipped totally on the edge 9 with flange and the user has put it on completely without using a hand, it can easily leave the device 1, since it is held firmly on the ground. He device 1 exerts, with adequate force through the load associated with part 2 of the pedestal by the foot, a force on the wall of the bra sheet 4 of socks shaped duct, force bending open the wall and giving rise to a opening suitable for this purpose between the edges 11, 12 of sheet.

Tras la puesta de un calcetín, el dispositivo 1 puede acoplarse levemente con el sujetador 4 de calcetines, que sobresale hacia arriba y se encuentra todavía a su alcance, para equiparlo con un segundo calcetín y utilizarlo de nuevo para el mismo fin.After putting on a sock, device 1 can be fitted slightly with the sock bra 4, which stands out and is still within reach, to equip it with a second sock and use it again for the same end.

Para poder transformar el dispositivo 1 en una forma compacta cuando no se esté utilizando, y también para el transporte, se suelta una disposición 14 de bloqueo para cerrar el dispositivo 1 como un par de tijeras. Con esto, la junta 10 de cierre se abre mediante el doblamiento del sujetador 4 de calcetines correspondiente a la anchura de la parte 2 de pedestal, y el pedestal 2 se cierra sobre el soporte de calcetines. Por consiguiente, para construirlo, el borde 15 inferior de lámina en U, que se forma a través de la abertura 7 frontal para pies del sujetador 4 de calcetines con forma de conducto, rodea el correspondiente extremo 16 posterior de forma redonda de la parte 2 de pedestal y está conectado a él a través de unas juntas 17, 18 cónicas, respectivamente, juntas que están situadas en lados opuestos. La disposición de bloqueo puede comprender un tornillo 14, que va desde la región posterior de la lámina 15 inferior de borde hasta y adentro de la parte 2 de pedestal.In order to transform device 1 into a compact form when not in use, and also for the transport, a lock arrangement 14 is released to close the device 1 as a pair of scissors. With this, the board 10 of closure is opened by folding the bra 4 of socks corresponding to the width of the pedestal part 2, and the pedestal 2 closes on the support of socks. By consequently, to construct it, the bottom edge 15 of sheet in U, which is formed through the front opening 7 for feet of the Bra 4 of duct-shaped socks, surrounds the corresponding round rear end 16 of part 2 pedestal and is connected to it through some joints 17, 18 conical, respectively, joints that are located on sides opposites The locking arrangement may comprise a screw 14, running from the posterior region of the lower edge sheet 15 up to and inside part 2 of the pedestal.
