DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 shows a sock 1 according to the present invention. A is a perspective view as viewed from the side of the shell, and B is a perspective view as viewed from the sole side. The sock 1 of the present invention has a piercing opening 2 on the side of the foot and a lower opening 3 on the sole side, and a heel pocket 4 along the rear half of the lower opening 3, and a lower opening 3. A toe pocket 5 is provided along the front half.

The sock of the present invention is knitted by a circular knit sock knitting machine, and the yarn used for the knitting is made of an elastic yarn so that it can be appropriately stretched and fitted according to the shape of each person's foot before wearing. I have. As shown in FIG. 1C, the side shape when worn after knitting is such that an upper opening 2 and a lower opening 3 are positioned vertically, and a toe pocket 5 and a heel pocket 4 are located before and after the middle.
And is located.

A method for knitting the sock 1 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 2 schematically shows each section to be knitted. The sock 1 of the present invention starts knitting from the perforation opening 2 by a circular knit sock knitting machine. Perforated opening edge 1 around the perimeter of perforated opening 2
The structure of No. 1 is made of rubber knitting, starts knitting in an annular shape from the rubber knitting part in the same manner as ordinary sock knitting, knits a suitable number of courses, then turns the course back into a U-shape on the knitting course and binds the opening integrally. The periphery is an inverted U-shaped double knitted fabric.

Following the perforation opening edge 11, about 12 courses of the upper ring portion 12 are formed in an annular shape. Upper ring part 12
According to the number of knitting courses, the magnitude of the height from the sole opening to the perforated part when using the sock of the present invention can be appropriately determined. The greater the number of courses, the greater the depth from the periphery of the perforation opening 2 of the sock to the periphery of the sole opening 3 described below, and the length from the front edge of the perforation opening 2 to the toe. It is not preferable that the number of courses is too large, because if it becomes large, the concealment of the sock in the shoe is impaired.

After the knitting of the upper ring portion 12 of the predetermined number of courses is completed, the process proceeds to knitting of the heel pocket 4. The knitting of the heel pocket 4 is performed in the same manner as in the normal sock knitting, and a ninick heel, an insert gore heel, an insert dart heel, a Smith heel, a harner heel, and the like can be appropriately employed. An example of knitting the heel pocket 4 in the range of 180 ° in the rear half of the opening 2 will be described with reference to the drawings. That is,
As shown in FIG. 2C, if the knitting of the upper ring portion 12 advances in the clockwise direction and ends at the point A, the knitting machine reverses, and
Perform 180 ° knitting to B, C and C. Next, knitting width is reduced by appropriately reducing the needle on the point A side, then knitting is reduced by reducing the needle on the C side, and the angle of reciprocating swiveling is gradually reduced, and the trapezoidal knitted fabric is reduced by about 60 courses. Knit 13. This time, on the contrary, the knitting width is increased for each course to form the trapezoidal knitted fabric 14. The final course of the trapezoidal knitted fabric 14 is between A and C.
By this knitting, the heel portion pocket 4 in which the trapezoidal knitted fabrics 13 and 14 are continuous with the gore line G is formed.

Next, A, D, C, B (FIG. 2C)
After the center ring portion 16 is knitted 22 times in an annular shape, the knitting is performed from point C to point A, and then the toe pocket 5 composed of the trapezoidal knitted fabrics 17 and 18 is knitted in the same manner as the heel pocket 4. The toe pocket 5 is 180 ° out of phase with the heel pocket 4. The directions of the heel pocket 4 and the toe pocket 5 are reversed, and the starting ends of both gore lines G are shown in FIG. 2A.
This line is located in the center of the side surface of the sock. Therefore, the sock of the present invention has the least number of courses at the center of the side surface, and the length from the heel to the toe of the sock when worn can be determined by appropriately selecting the number of courses of the central ring portion 16. .

The knitting of the toe pocket 5 is completed.
Subsequent to the final course of the latter 180 ° range of the central ring portion 16 and the toe pocket 5, knitting of the lower ring portion 20 is performed in a circular manner for 12 courses, and then equivalent to edge knitting of the lower opening portion 3. The opening edge 21 of the sole to be formed is knitted in the shape of a bag in the same manner as the opening edge 11 of the 20-course perforated opening, and then the fray prevention tissue 22 is knitted. The anti-fraying tissue 22 is made of a material that is particularly excellent in elasticity to prevent run-off of frayed stitches. Further, a heat-fusible fiber yarn is added to several courses and several wales including the final course and knitted, followed by press-off. The heat fusible fiber yarn prevents fraying of the end yarn of the knitted fabric by fusing to the surrounding yarn at the time of setting after knitting.

In the above description, it is most efficient to knit the upper ring portion 12, the central ring portion 16, the lower ring portion 20, and the anti-raveling structure 22 in a flat knitting structure. However, it is not particularly limited to the flat knitting structure. Instead, it is also possible to increase the air permeability as a tack ground or the like, or to enhance the heat retention and impact resistance as a pile structure. In addition, although the number of courses at the time of knitting of each part is described above, the number of courses is not limited thereto.

The sock according to the present invention inserts the toe into the toe pocket 5 and covers the heel with the heel pocket 4 so that the toe pocket 5 covers the toe of the foot. It is locked as shown by A and B in FIG.

At this time, the knitted fabric is sufficiently stretched so that the perforation opening 2 and the sole opening 3 are widely opened, the toe pocket 5, the heel pocket 4, the center ring 16, the heel pocket 4, and the heel pocket 4. It is supported by the lower ring 20 and its upper and lower sides are surrounded by a perforated opening edge 11 and a foot opening edge 21, and the knitted fabric is extended in the course direction in the horizontal direction in the figure. In addition, each of the ring portions 12, 16, and 20 is extremely thin on the center line (XX line in FIG. 2A), which also increases the degree of opening of the upper and lower openings 2, 3.

[0016]

The socks of the present invention have the following effects. When worn, the toe and heel are inserted into the toe pocket and the heel pocket, respectively, so that the pockets are in an extended state, so that the central ring that substantially integrates the two pockets reduces the length in the wale direction, especially the tip of the gore line. The surrounding central ring part knitted fabric narrows and widens the upper and lower openings, greatly exposing the leg and preventing the sock opening edge from appearing outside the shoe higher than the shoe upper. It is possible to make it so that it is not possible to see wearing socks. There is no stuffiness when worn due to the sole opening, and no stuffiness is felt.

The step of sewing the opening by linking at the end of knitting as in ordinary socks is not required at all, and the process can be simplified and labor can be saved. The height from the sole opening to the perforation opening when worn can be freely selected by changing the number of courses in the center ring.
