Description

  The present invention relates to a foot cover that is hidden behind a shoe such as a pump (mainly women's shoes whose upper part is a wide open mouth) when worn, and in particular, it is easy to wear and can be removed by walking or other actions. The present invention relates to a foot cover that is comfortable to wear even in the hot summer with little misalignment.

Wearing shoes such as pumps on bare feet has become established as a fashion. In this case, if the pump and the sole are in direct contact with each other, the sweat inside the shoe may become stuffy due to sweat generated on the foot, resulting in an uncomfortable feeling.
Therefore, we propose a thin foot cover that covers the toes and the sole including the heel and exposes the instep and ankle, and the mouth is greatly cut so that it is not exposed from the pump when worn. Has been. If you wear this foot cover and wear pumps, it looks like you are wearing pumps on your bare feet, and the foot cover is between the sole and the pumps, so sweat sweats the inside of the shoes Can be prevented.

In addition, although such a foot mounting device is described as a foot cover in this specification, it may be described as a socks cover, inner socks, nude socks, cover socks, or the like.
Since such a foot cover has a large cut mouth so as not to be exposed from the pump, the wearing position may be shifted or removed due to friction during walking. On the other hand, if the mouth is made small, it will be exposed from the pumps. A foot cover developed in view of such a problem is disclosed in the following prior art documents.

In Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-292206 (Patent Document 1), the foot cover may be removed from the bare foot due to friction between the pump and the foot cover during walking, or the foot cover may be removed when the pump is removed. In order to prevent shifting, a foot cover in which a friction imparting body is attached to the inner surface of the heel contact portion is disclosed.
Japanese Utility Model Registration No. 3165733 (Patent Document 2) discloses that when a rubber string is provided along the periphery of the opening of the foot cover disclosed in Patent Document 1, the rubber string bites into the foot, so that the rubber is applied to the foot. In consideration of problems such as laces being attached, feeling pain, and poor comfort, a belt-like stretch that has flat rubber along the periphery of the opening so that one side touches the foot The foot cover which formed the part is disclosed.

JP-A-10-292206 Utility Model Registration No. 3165733

  Here, the foot cover friction imparting body disclosed in Patent Document 1 may not be sufficient. In this case, the foot cover may be removed or the wearing position may be shifted when walking or taking off the pump. I'll be relaxed. In the flat rubber disclosed in Patent Document 2, since the flat rubber is provided over the entire periphery of the opening (depending on the elasticity of the flat rubber), the opening is sufficient when the foot cover is worn. In addition to the case where it is difficult to wear without opening, there is also a problem that the foot cover may be removed or the wearing position may be shifted when the pump is taken off, as with the foot cover disclosed in Patent Document 1.

Furthermore, when wearing a conventional foot cover and wearing shoes such as pumps in hot (or sultry) summer, the bottom of the foot may become stuffy and the comfort may not be preferable. In this case, even if the foot cover is worn, it cannot be solved in the first place that when the pump and the sole are in direct contact with each other, the inside of the shoe becomes damp due to sweat generated on the foot.
The present invention has been developed in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and the object of the present invention is that the foot cover may be removed or the wearing position may be shifted when walking or taking off the pump. An object of the present invention is to provide a foot cover that is comfortable to wear even in hot summer.

In order to achieve the above object, the foot cover according to the present invention employs the following technical means.
That is, the foot cover according to the present invention is a foot cover that covers the instep and the sole and exposes the ankle, and is formed by the sole portion, the heel portion, and the instep portion. An opening for putting in and out the foot is provided on the opposite side, a stretchable narrow cloth is provided on the upper edge of the opening, a stretchable narrow cloth is provided on the upper edge of the opening, and the sole is formed. It is characterized in that at least a part of the dough has a mesh shape.

  Preferably, the entire fabric forming the sole can be configured in a mesh shape. The net-like (fabric) is a fabric having a large number of fine holes, such as a mesh fabric.

  According to the foot cover of the present invention, it is possible to provide a foot cover that is comfortable to wear even in hot summer, without the foot cover being removed or the wearing position being shifted when walking or taking off the pumps. be able to.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS (A) Whole perspective view about the foot cover which concerns on embodiment of this invention, (B) The perspective view seen from the back side of the state which the heel raised.

  Hereinafter, a foot cover according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. There are various foot cover structures, and the present invention is not limited to a specific structure, and any foot cover structure may be used as long as it has the characteristics described below. Basically, it does not matter what kind of fabric forms the foot cover, the pattern of the fabric, and the joining method of the fabric. For this reason, the structure of the foot cover shown below is merely an example.

  Note that the fabric forming this foot cover (except that the fabric forming the sole 104 is a mesh (mesh)) is a bare heaven (bare tent: a yarn made of another material with a polyurethane thread as the axis ( Cotton, wool, etc.) for knitted fabric (covered yarn, etc.), tricot (warp knitted fabric knitted with a tricot machine, a type of warp knitting machine), pantyhose A fabric (knitted fabric including polyurethane yarn and nylon yarn) or the like is preferably used. Among these, in particular, Bear Sky is (1) excellent in elasticity, (2) good shape stability and little shape change after washing, and (3) soft texture and good fit. (4) Wrinkles and creases are difficult to be formed, (5) The porous structure is breathable, and (6) When cotton is included, it is preferable for the foot cover in terms of touch and hygroscopicity.

  Furthermore, the foot cover according to the present embodiment is a foot cover that covers the toe and the sole including the heel and exposes the instep and the ankle, and covers the sole, the side, the heel, and the toe. Formed at the toe. Moreover, although not limited, the foot cover shown below is common in right and left, and since it is common in right and left, it is preferable at the point which does not mistake a right and left. When the foot cover is not shared on the left and right sides, the left foot and the right foot have a symmetrical shape.

What is characteristic is that at least a part (here, all) of the fabric forming the sole is mesh-like (mesh). The foot cover according to the present embodiment forms a plurality of fabrics (a fabric forming the toe portion 102A and the side portion 102B (a fabric forming the side portion 102), a fabric forming the sole portion 104, and a heel portion 106. However, the joining of these doughs is not limited. For example, the fabrics may be joined together by stitching, or by heating with an adhesive tape having an adhesive applied to one side of the belt-shaped member, the adhesive melts and the fabric is thermally bonded. It does not matter if they are joined together. Here, this joining includes those by thermocompression bonding, those by thermal welding, those by thermal fusion, and the like.

  FIG. 1 (A) shows an overall perspective view of the foot cover 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 1 (B) shows a perspective view of the foot cover 100 with the heel raised from the back side. Here, FIG. 1 (A) and FIG. 1 (B) assume a state in which the foot cover 100 is worn on the wearer's foot F. That is, since the foot cover 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention is formed of a stretchable fabric such as tricot, it is in a contracted state when not illustrated in the above assumption and the shape is understood. This is assumed as described above.

  The foot cover 100 is a foot cover that covers the toes of the wearer's foot F and the sole including the heel and exposes the instep and ankle. The foot cover 100 is formed of a thin stretchable fabric (fabric such as tricot) in which an opening that is a wear mouth is largely cut so as not to be exposed from the pump when worn. Here, not being exposed from the pumps when worn means that the foot cover 100 is hidden behind the pumps and becomes invisible or difficult to see.

  The foot cover 100 is formed of a toe portion 102A, a sole portion 104, a side portion 102B, and a heel portion 106. As described above, the foot cover 100 includes the cloth forming the toe part 102A and the side part 102B (the cloth forming the side part 102), the cloth forming the sole 104, and the cloth forming the heel part 106. The fabrics are stitched and joined. More specifically, the cloth forming the toe part 102A and the side part 102B and the cloth forming the heel part 106 form the toe part 102A and the side part 102B by the two vertical suture lines 110. The fabric forming the heel portion 106 and the fabric forming the sole portion 104 are sewn together by a suture line 112 along the outer periphery of the sole.

  And the opening part for taking in / out a leg on the opposite side to the up-and-down side with respect to the sole 104 is provided. A stretchable and narrow fabric 114 is provided on the inner side of the foot cover 100 (the side on which the foot F contacts: the skin side) over the entire periphery of the upper edge of the opening. When the stretchable narrow fabric 114 is stretched when the foot cover 100 is worn, the opening portion is greatly opened, so that it is easy to wear, and after the foot cover 100 is worn, the stretchable narrow fabric 114 is contracted and opened. Since the portion is small, the foot cover 100 does not come off during walking. In addition, you may make it provide the elastic | stretch narrow cloth 114 on the outer side (the side opposite to the side which the leg | foot F touches: shoe side) over the perimeter of the upper edge of this opening part. The stretchable narrow fabric 114 may be provided not on the entire circumference of the upper edge of the opening but on a part of the upper edge, or may be provided intermittently rather than continuously. In any case, the stretchable narrow fabric 114 makes it easy to wear the foot cover 100, and the foot cover 100 is less likely to be removed or displaced even by an action such as walking. An example of the stretchable narrow fabric 114 is a nylon tape.

  Further, on the upper edge of the heel portion 106 of the foot cover 100, on the inner side of the foot cover 100 (the side on which the foot F is in contact: the skin side), the heel portion is made of a thin transparent sheet such as silicon resin. It is also preferable to provide 116. Thereby, the adhesiveness with the heel of the foot F can be improved, and the foot cover 100 can be further prevented from being displaced from the heel portion of the foot F. The buttocks slipper 116 is not an essential component in the foot cover according to the present invention.

  The feature of the foot cover 100 is that, as shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, all (or a part of) the fabric forming the sole 104 may be a mesh. Consists of dough. The mesh-shaped fabric is a fabric having a large number of fine holes, and is a mesh fabric or the like (hereinafter, a mesh fabric is representatively described). Except for the fact that this mesh-like fabric is provided with a large number of fine holes, with regard to the thickness and material, etc., the fabric forming the other toe portion 102A and the side portion 102B and the fabric forming the heel portion 106 Similarly, it is the same as a thin and preferred stretchable fabric such as a fabric for bear heaven, tricot or pantyhose.

In this way, in the foot cover 100, since the fabric of the sole portion 104 is a mesh fabric (especially, all of the sole portion 104 is a mesh fabric), the foot cover 100 is worn in the (steaming) hot summer season. When shoes such as pumps are worn, the breathability of the sole 104 is very favorable, so that it is comfortable without being steamed. In particular, the use of a nylon mesh fabric is particularly preferable in that a soft touch feeling can be realized. In addition, it is also preferable to deodorize the dough of the sole portion 104.

  Further, on the side of the sole 104 that is opposite to the side where the foot F contacts (the side that contacts the inner bottom of the pump when the pump is worn), a sole non-slip formed of a thin sheet of silicon resin or the like is provided. Is also preferable. Thereby, the adhesiveness with the inner bottom of a pump can be improved, and it can prevent that the position of the foot cover 100 in a pump shifts | deviates. In addition, this sole non-slip | skid is also not an essential structure in the foot cover which concerns on this invention.

  In the foot cover 100, the fabrics other than the sole portion 104 (the fabric forming the side portion 102 and the fabric forming the heel portion 106) that form the foot cover 100 may be formed of the same co-fabric. Absent. That is, except for the mesh fabric that forms the sole portion 104, the foot cover 100 may be formed of the same stretchable fabric (tricot or the like). In the foot cover 100, the stretchable narrow fabric 114 is bonded to the fabric by heating with a hot press device and the adhesive applied to the stretchable narrow fabric 114 is melted and thermally bonded to the fabric. Has been. Further, in the foot cover 100, the fabric other than the sole 104 that forms the foot cover 100 and the stretchable narrow fabric 114 may be formed of the same fabric.

As described above, according to the foot cover 100 according to the present embodiment, since the fabric forming the sole portion 104 is a mesh fabric, the foot cover 100 is worn in the hot (steamed) summer and shoes such as pumps are worn. Even if it is worn, the breathability of the sole 104 is very favorable, so that it is very comfortable to wear without being steamed.
The embodiment disclosed this time should be considered as illustrative in all points and not restrictive. The scope of the present invention is defined by the terms of the claims, rather than the description above, and is intended to include any modifications within the scope and meaning equivalent to the terms of the claims.

  The present invention is suitable for a foot cover to be worn with bare feet, and even when the foot cover is worn and a shoe such as a pump is worn in a hot (steamed) summer season, the breathability of the sole is very favorable, so It is particularly preferable because it is extremely comfortable to wear.
