Description

  The present invention relates to socks.

  Wearing shoes such as sneakers and loafers with bare feet as a fashion, and wearing pumps with bare feet without wearing stockings due to the heat, but the soles are easy to sweat, so bare feet The shoes get muddy.

  For this reason, traditionally, socks that are wide open so that a part of the ankle and instep are exposed, and socks that do not protrude from the shoes even when wearing the shoes are used. . The light socks are sometimes referred to as foot covers, cover socks, inner socks, nude socks and the like.

  Since such a sock sock has a wide mouth, there is a problem that the wearing position shifts due to friction during walking or the like, and it is removed from the heel portion. On the other hand, if the wearer's mouth is made small, the socks will stick out of the shoes when wearing shoes with wide open insteps. Several proposals have been made to solve such problems.

For example, in Patent Document 1, a protrusion-like elastic body made of a rubber material or the like is attached to the inner surface of the heel contact portion of the foot cover, and the protrusion-like elastic body serves as an anti-slip, making it difficult to remove the foot cover. It is disclosed.
Or, even if it is not a shallow sock, if the heel is difficult to fit into the sock, the sock may easily slip during walking.

The mouth opening knitting 2 of the present embodiment is separated in the front-rear direction and is divided into a rear mouth opening 2a located on the heel side and a front mouth opening 2b located on the toe side. . At the opening edge 1a, the knitted fabric is single-edge-processed between the front piercing portion knitting 2b and the rear piercing portion knitting 2a.

The rear piercing part knitting 2a is knitted so as to extend from the inner ankle to the outer ankle when worn and to surround and fit the heel on the upper side of the heel. The rear piercing portion knitting 2a is provided so as to prevent fraying and turning up, and the heel pocket 4 is not easily displaced from the heel.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a knitted fabric 8 is knitted along the extending direction of the rear lip portion knitting 2a below the rear lip portion knitting 2a. In this embodiment, the back knitted fabric is provided for several courses.
A heel pocket 4 is knitted below the knitted fabric 8.

  The heel pocket 4 is a portion in which the heel can be wrapped from both sides, the back and the bottom. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, the heel pocket 4 has an upper side 11m and a lower side 11n or 11k that are substantially parallel to each other, and the first trapezoid knitted fabric 11A and the first trapezoid knitted fabric 11A having the same length of the upper side 11m and the same length. 2 trapezoid knitted fabrics 11B, second trapezoid knitted fabrics 11B and third trapezoid knitted fabrics 11C, and third trapezoid knitted fabrics 11C and fourth trapezoid knitted fabrics 11D, the upper sides 11m, 11m or the lower sides 11k, It is formed by using a knitted fabric 11 knitted into a shape arranged in a large-small-small-large arrangement with 11k butted.

The three-dimensional shape of the heel pocket 4 is such that when the two second trapezoid knitted fabrics 11B and the third trapezoid knitted fabric 11C are bent in the vicinity of the lower side 11k, the trapezoid side sides (traverse ends) 12a and 12a that overlap each other are overlapped. The Gore lines G1, G2, and G3 shown in FIG. That is, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the heel pocket 4 is knitted with the upper end of the gore line G1 positioned near both ends of the rear piercing portion knitting 2a as the starting end, and knitted rearward and downward from the starting end. It constitutes an area.
As shown in FIG. 1, a slip stopper 30 is formed on the inner surface of the first trapezoidal knitted fabric 11 </ b> A constituting the heel pocket 4 to prevent the heel pocket 4 from slipping away from the heel when worn.

  The front lip portion 2b is loosely stretched in the left-right direction (that is, the width direction of the foot) from the vicinity of the thumb base to the vicinity of the little finger when worn, and the toe pocket 3 accommodates the toe pocket. You can hold it.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the toe pocket 3 folds the knitted fabric 13 knitted in a shape in which the upper sides 13m of the trapezoidal knitted fabrics 13A and 13B having the upper side 13m and the lower side 13n substantially parallel to each other in the vicinity of the upper side 13m. At this time, the overlapping sides (traverse ends) 14a, 14a are joined to each other and provided in a bag shape, and are sewn to an annular knitted fabric 15 to be described later. That is, the toe pocket 3 includes a knitted fabric 35 in a front part of the width direction sewing portion G4 formed by stitching with the annular knitted fabric 15 and a sole side facing the knitted fabric 35 as shown in FIG. A portion formed by the portion of the knitted fabric 36 is formed.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, a foot portion 5 is knitted between the toe pocket 3 and the heel pocket 4.
In the present embodiment, the foot portion 5 is knitted between an annular knitted fabric 15 knitted in an annular shape between the front lip portion knitting 2 b and the toe pocket 3, and between the annular knitted fabric 15 and the heel pocket 4. The extended knitted fabric 16 is formed.

  The annular knitted fabric 15 is a portion that covers the instep and the sole in an annular shape. The length of the annular knitted fabric 15 in the front-rear direction is an element that determines the position of the front lip portion knitting 2b on the instep, that is, the length over which the instep is covered. The sock 1 of the present embodiment is arranged so that the front lip portion 2b or the annular knitted fabric 15 does not protrude from the worn mouth even when a shoe having a large opening such as a pump is worn. The direction length is shortened.

The extended knitted fabric 16 is knitted as a portion covering the middle part in the front-rear direction of the foot including the arch, and is knitted between the side surface portions 17 and 17 covering both side surfaces of the foot and the side surface portions 17 and 17. And a bottom surface 18.
On the bottom surface portion 18 of the extended knitted fabric 16, a stretchable portion 6 having a higher stretchability than the surrounding knitted fabric is knitted.

  As shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the stretchable portion 6 is knitted into a substantially rectangular shape from the front end of the extended knitted fabric 16 or near the front end toward the rear. The stretchable portion 6 is preferably formed with a predetermined width and a length in the front-rear direction from the immediate rearward side of the base ball toward the heel when the sock 1 is worn. The predetermined width and the length in the front-rear direction sufficiently absorb the extension knitted fabric 16 extending when the sock 1 is worn and the heel is raised, and the extension knitted fabric 16 is removed when the heel is lowered. It is a dimension that can be quickly contracted to fit the sole.

As the material of the stretchable portion 6, a highly elastic yarn such as a rubber yarn obtained by double covering a long fiber such as nylon, polyester, rayon or the like with polyurethane, thread-like rubber or the like capable of exhibiting high stretchability as a core yarn is preferably used.
A plurality of (three in this embodiment) auxiliary openings 20 each having a long hole shape extending in the front-rear direction are formed on both side edges 6e, 6e in the width direction of the stretchable part 6. The auxiliary opening 20 constitutes an auxiliary opening that assists expansion and contraction of the extended knitted fabric 16.
An intarsia boundary knitting G5 is formed at the rear end of the auxiliary opening 20 formed at the rearmost position.

Next, production of the socks 1 will be described with reference to FIG.
The sock 1 is roughly extended by a circular knitting sock machine, following the rear piercing portion mouth knitting 2a, the heel pocket 4 and the heel pocket 4, the extended knitted fabric 16, the front piercing portion mouth knitting 2b, and the annular knitted fabric 15 The toe pockets 3 are knitted in this order.
Specifically, the sock 1 starts knitting from the rear mouth opening knitting 2a. Of the needles inserted in a circular knitting machine cylinder (not shown), select the needle on the heel side in the range of 60 to 80% of the total number of needles (the heel pocket becomes smaller if the number of needles is small). Knitting with reciprocating rotation.

  In general socks, a sufficient number of courses of knitted fabric 8 are adequately provided between the mouth knitted knitted fabric 2 and the knitted pocket 4 or the annular knitted fabric 15 of the foot 5 following the mouth knitted knitted fabric 2. However, the sock 1 stops the creation of the knitted fabric 8 for several courses and moves to the knitting of the heel pocket 4.

  Subsequent to the knitted fabric 8, the subsequent course reduces the knitting width at both ends of the knitted fabric for each arbitrary course to knit the first trapezoid knitted fabric 11A, and then increases the knitting width to increase the first trapezoid knitted fabric 11A. The second trapezoid knitted fabric 11B having the same upper side 11m is knitted to be smaller than the course width of the lower side 11n of the first trapezoid knitted fabric 11A.

  Then, the third trapezoid knitted fabric 11C having the same course width as the second trapezoid knitted fabric 11B having the course width of the upper side 11m previously knitted is knitted in the same manner as the second trapezoid knitted fabric 11B and the lower side 11k. . Thereafter, a fourth trapezoid knitted fabric 11D having the same upper side 11m as the third trapezoid knitted fabric 11C is knitted, and the lower side 11n has the same course width as the lower side 11n of the first trapezoid knitted fabric 11A knitted first. To be.

  When knitting each of the second trapezoid knitted fabric 11B, the third trapezoid knitted fabric 11C, and the fourth trapezoid knitted fabric 11D, at the traverse end of each trapezoid knitted fabric, by appropriately knitting the loop at the end of the course. A bag-like bag pocket 4 is formed.

  Next, the knitting of the extended knitted fabric 16 is started. The knitting start course of the extended knitted fabric 16 is knitted with the same needle as the final course of the lower side 11n of the fourth trapezoid knitted fabric 11D. That is, when the final course of the fourth trapezoidal knitted fabric 11D is knitted to the end, the cylinder is reversed and the next course is knitted with the same number of wales. This inversion is repeated (that is, reciprocally rotated) to perform knitting for a predetermined number of courses. The folded portions (ear knitting portions 25) at both ends of the extended knitted fabric 16 have the same configuration as so-called ear knitting at both ends of the knitted fabric knitted by the flat knitting machine.

  After a while after knitting the extended knitted fabric 16, the rectangular stretchable portion is switched to a yarn that has a higher stretch rate than the yarn used for knitting when the extended knitted fabric 16 is started to be knitted in the bottom surface portion 18 and is easily stretchable. 6 is organized. Auxiliary openings 20 are formed along the side edges 6e, 6e of the stretchable part 6 at both ends in the width direction of the stretchable part 6. Therefore, from the beginning of knitting of the stretchable portion 6 to the end of knitting, reciprocating knitting is performed on each knitted fabric using different yarns on the stretchable portion 6 and both sides thereof.

  In addition, if the number of courses of the extended knitted fabric 16 having the ear knitting portions 25 at both ends is increased, the length from the heel pocket 4 of the sock to the tip of the toe pocket 3 can be increased, that is, the opening S can be increased. .

  Next to the extended knitted fabric 16, the process proceeds to the knitting of the front piercing portion knitting 2b. The knitting of the front lip portion knitting 2b is a circular knitting similar to the knitting of the posterior ostium portion knitting 2a, using the remaining 40 to 20% of the needles that were not used when knitting the rear piercing portion knitting 2a. By the reciprocating rotation of the machine cylinder, the front piercing portion opening knitting 2b constitutes the knitting stop knitting of the bag and is knitted.

  Next, the process moves to the knitting of the annular knitted fabric 15 of the foot 5. The annular knitted fabric 15 is formed by knitting the final course of the extended knitted fabric 16 and returning the needle at the rest position to the knitting position, and the needle and the needle knitting the final course of the front mouth opening knitting 2b, that is, all needles. The cylinder 5 is rotated around the knitting to form an arbitrary course of the tubular knitting, so that the foot portion 5 including the upper portion including the side surface portion 17 and the bottom surface portion 18 is knitted. In addition, the toe pocket 3 of the toe following the foot 5 is continuously knitted by the conventional method. The opening of the toe pocket 3 is sewn and closed with the annular knitted fabric 15 by an appropriate means such as linking.

  Since the sock 1 of the present invention having the above-described configuration has the stretchable portion 6 knitted on the bottom surface portion 18 of the foot portion 5, even if the heel is raised and lowered when worn, the bottom portion 18 quickly absorbs the expansion and contraction. Socks 1 can be fitted to the foot. Therefore, even if the socks 1 are formed so as to be worn lightly, it is possible to effectively prevent the socks 1 from slipping out of the foot and taking off.

In addition, since the auxiliary openings 20 extend in the front-rear direction on both sides of the stretchable part 6 and are formed in a plurality, the stretch of the bottom part 18 in the front-rear direction can be more effectively absorbed. In addition, the auxiliary opening 20 can expand in the left-right direction (that is, the width direction of the foot) when worn, and can cope with the vertical movement of the side surface portion 17 of the foot portion 5.
Moreover, since the sock 1 has the anti-slip | skid 30 in the internal peripheral surface of the collar pocket 4, there exists an effect that the shift | offset | difference of the sock 1 can be prevented still more effectively.

Moreover, since the intarsia knitting boundary G5 is formed behind the auxiliary opening 20, the expansion of the auxiliary opening 20 can be effectively prevented.
In addition, since the entire sock 1 includes the bottom surface portion 18 and is formed by intarsia knitting, the stretchable portion 6 can function as much as possible without causing a stretch that prevents the stretchable portion 6 from being stretched. There is an effect.

In the above embodiment, the stretchable part 6 has exemplified the sock 1 formed in a rectangular shape, but the shape of the stretchable part 6 may be circular, elliptical or other polygonal shapes.
Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the sock 1 in which the three auxiliary openings 20 were formed was illustrated, the number of the auxiliary openings 20 may be one or three or more. Furthermore, the auxiliary opening 20 may be formed in the intermediate portion in the width direction of the stretchable portion 6.
The socks 1 may be formed with slits extending in the front-rear direction instead of the long hole-shaped auxiliary openings 20.

  The sock 1 of the present invention is particularly effective for shallow wear or shoe-in type, but is applied to normal short socks or high socks in which the other opening S is formed small. Is also possible.
