Description

  The present invention relates to a toe-correcting sock that corrects hallux valgus and hallux valgus.

  As a toe correction sock that corrects hallux valgus and hallux valgus without using a separate corrector, a bag part is formed at the tip to fit the toe and little toe independently of the other three fingers in the middle. And the toe correction socks which expanded the thumb and the little finger inserted in each bag part from three middle fingers are proposed (for example, refer to patent documents 1 and 2). Some of them have a bag part that fits only the thumb independently for correcting hallux valgus.

  In Patent Document 1, a portion that abuts on the metatarsal joint portion of the foot and the base portion of the fifth metatarsal bone is formed of a member having a stronger elastic restoring force than the other portions, 5 The thumb and little finger are expanded outward by the force of pressing the base of the metatarsal bone.

  Moreover, what was described in patent document 2 is extended from each bag part in which a thumb and a little finger are inserted to the buttocks side on the sole side, and when worn, the thumb is bent in a concave shape. And an attracting portion having elasticity for drawing the little finger toward the buttocks.

  The toe correction socks described in Patent Document 1 can spread the thumb and little finger outward using the skeleton structure of the foot, but the metatarsal joint and the fifth metatarsal base are Because it can be tightened with a strong force, there is a problem of giving the foot a feeling of pressure.

  On the other hand, in the toe correction socks described in Patent Document 2, the thumb and little toe are attracted to the sole side by the attracting portion on the sole side, so that the thumb and little finger that are originally bent to the sole side are effectively removed. There is a problem that cannot be expanded.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a toe-correcting sock that can effectively spread the thumb and little finger outward without giving a feeling of pressure to the foot.

  In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention provides a toe correction in which a bag part is formed at the tip part on the toe side so that at least one end finger of the toe or little finger is inserted independently of the other finger. In socks, from the part where the outer part of the end finger fitted into the bag part abuts to at least the side part extending to the buttock side than the part where the outer part of the base part of the end finger contacts, The structure which provided the strong elastic part whose elastic restoring force was stronger than the other part was employ | adopted.

  In other words, from the portion where the outer side portion of the end finger inserted into the bag portion abuts to the side portion extending at least to the buttock side from the portion where the outer side portion of the base portion of the end finger abuts, the other part By providing a strong elastic part with a stronger elastic restoring force, the end finger inserted into the bag part can be effectively removed by the strong elastic restoring force of the side elastic part without giving a feeling of pressure to the foot. It can be expanded to the direction.

  Formed at the tip of the toe side is each bag portion for inserting the end fingers of both the thumb and the little finger independently of the other fingers, and the strong elastic portion is inserted into each of the bag portions. By providing on both sides extending from the part where the outer part is in contact to the buttocks side more than the part where the outer part of the base of the end finger is in contact, both thumb and little finger are outward. It can be effectively expanded and hallux valgus and hallux valgus can be corrected simultaneously.

  A lateral arch is formed on the sole of the foot by providing a sole elastic portion that has a stronger elastic restoring force than the other portion so as to extend in the width direction of the foot at a portion that contacts the middle foot joint on the sole side of the foot. , And a normal foot shape suitable for walking can be formed.

  The toe correction socks according to the present invention are from the part where the outer side part of the end finger inserted into the bag part comes into contact with at least the part where the outer part of the base part of the end finger comes into contact with the buttocks side. Because the extended side part is provided with a strong elastic part that has a stronger elastic restoring force than other parts, the end finger inserted into the bag part does not give a feeling of pressure to the foot, and the strong elastic part of the side strong elastic part With the restoring force, it is possible to effectively spread outward and correct hallux valgus and hallux valgus.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described. 1 and 2 show a first embodiment. This toe correction sock is a short sock up to the ankle. As shown in FIGS. 1 (a) and 1 (b), the toes of the tip of each toe and little toe are connected to the other fingers. The bag portions 1a and 1b that are independently inserted are formed, and the outer portion of the base portion of each end finger is brought into contact with the portion from which the outer portion of each end finger that is inserted into each of the bag portions 1a and 1b comes into contact. Strong elastic portions 2a and 2b having stronger elastic restoring force than the other portions are provided on both side portions extending to the vicinity of the midfoot joint portion on the buttock side than the portion to be provided. As shown in FIG. 1 (a), when the sock is not worn, each of the strong elastic portions 2a and 2b contracts with a strong elastic restoring force, so that each of the bag portions 1a and 1b is warped outward.

  Each of the strong elastic portions 2a and 2b is knitted only with elastic yarns, and the other portions are knitted with inelastic yarns and elastic yarns, including the ankle portion 3 that is in contact with the ankle. However, the ankle part 3 has a higher knitting ratio of elastic yarns and a little strengthened elastic restoring force so that it does not slip against the tension toward the tip side due to the strong elastic restoring force of the strong elastic parts 2a, 2b. Yes.

  FIG. 2 shows a state in which socks are worn. The thumb and the little finger inserted in each bag 1a, 1b are shown in the figure by the respective bag portions 1a, 1b that tend to warp outward by the strong elastic restoring force of each of the strong elastic portions 2a, 2b that are stretched when worn. As shown by the arrow, it is expanded outward. Therefore, hallux valgus and hallux valgus can be corrected.

  3A and 3B show a modification of the first embodiment. In this modified example, the foot center portion 4 that is in contact with the instep and the arch is also increased in the elastic knitting ratio, and the elastic restoring force is slightly strengthened so as not to give the foot a feeling of pressure. . Other parts are the same as those of the first embodiment. In this modified example, the foot center portion 4 with enhanced elastic restoring force also suppresses sliding down to the distal end side due to the strong elastic restoring force of the strong elastic portions 2a and 2b. The foot center portion 4 also has a massage effect that tightens the arch portion.
