Description

  The present invention relates to a sock having a universal design that can be easily worn with one hand even in situations where it is difficult for an elderly person, a disabled person, or a healthy person to move their bodies.

  Socks are softly made with knitted fabric, but those with physical disabilities are required to have socks that are softer and not tightened. However, socks that are soft and not tightened are weak due to the nature of the fabric, and tend to close so that their mouths stick together. If your mouth is closed, you must bend forward and hold it with both hands so that you can spread both sides of your mouth, so even people with physical disabilities or healthy people may be injured or pregnant. It is difficult to wear for those who are wearing gloves or wearing gloves in winter mountains.

  Patent Documents 1-4 propose a sock-wearing assisting tool that is easy for a handicapped person to wear, but it is troublesome to attach the assisting tool to the sock or to wear it. In addition, socks having a handle on the left and right or behind the mouth have been proposed. This sock with a handle is easier to wear than ordinary socks, but it is necessary to bend and use both hands to widen the mouth, and it is still difficult to wear for those who are difficult to bend greatly.

  The present invention has been made in view of such conventional problems, and even a handicapped person or the like can easily wear it with one hand even in a normal posture even if it does not bend forward greatly. It is an object to provide a sock that can be used.

  In the present invention, as means for solving the above-mentioned problems, a linear holding part that keeps a straight line shape in the range of 1/8 to 2/5 of the circumference of the wearer's mouth than the other knitted parts is provided in the wearer's mouth. It is knitted along.

  In the present invention, the lip structure has a knitting structure in which the lip is easily kept straight by the straight line holding portion, so that the lip is naturally expanded when the lip is grasped with a finger of one hand. For this reason, even if you do not take the posture of putting your fingertips while widening forward with both hands widening your mouth, hold your mouth with one hand in a slightly bent posture and put your toes into the widened mouth Just pull it up and you can put on socks with one hand.

  The straight line holding portion is flat knitted or tack knitted. Alternatively, a knitting yarn having a higher contractibility than other knitted portions is used for the straight line holding portion, or a knitting yarn having a higher contractibility than other knitted portions is aligned.

The linear holding part is provided on the rear side of the wearer and a handle is provided continuously to the linear holding part.
With this handle, the mouth is opened by the straight holding part at the base of the handle, so put your toes into the open mouth and pull up the handle, so you can easily wear the socks with one hand be able to.

  The straight line holding portions are further provided on both sides of the straight portion at the base of the handle.

The wear mouth forms an isosceles triangle having the straight line holding portion at the base of the handle as a base and the straight line holding portions on both sides as oblique sides.
The wearer's mouth is naturally expanded by the straight holding portion at the base of the handle and the straight holding portions on both sides thereof.

The leg portion including the wear mouth is double knitted on the inner side and the outer side, and the straight line holding portion is knitted on the inner or outer leg portion.
Since the leg part including the mouth is doubled, the leg part keeps standing on the foot part and the heel part when the foot part and the sole side of the heel part are placed on the floor or the like. For this reason, the toe of the foot can be put into the wearing mouth without holding the sock with the sock on the floor.

At least two straight line holding portions are provided, and the stitches are greatly knitted between the adjacent straight line holding portions.
Since the stitches between the straight holding parts are knitted large, it is easier to bend and stretch than the straight holding parts, so when putting the foot into the wearing mouth, the wearing mouth spreads moderately and easily You can wear socks.

  According to the present invention, since the wearer's mouth is naturally expanded by the straight-line holding part of the wearer, even if the person has a physical disability, etc. You can easily put on socks with one hand just by putting your toes into the widened mouth and pulling it up.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

<First Embodiment>
FIG. 1 is a sock 1 according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The sock 1 is knitted by forward knitting and forward / reverse knitting using a circular knitting machine, and includes a foot 2, a leg 3, a heel 4, a foot 5, a toe 6, and contracted parts 12a and 18a. .

  A linear holding portion 11a that is more linear than the other knitted portions is knitted in the cuff 2 in the range of 1/8 to 2/5 of the circumference. The straight line holding portion 11 a is provided on the rear side of the mouthpiece 2. The rear side of the mouth 2 is kept straighter than the other knitted portions by the straight line holding part 11a, and the front side of the mouth 2 from both ends of the straight line holding part 11a sticks together due to the presence of the straight line holding part 11a. Without spreading naturally. For this reason, the mouth 2 is kept in its state if it is naturally expanded or spread by hand. The knitting structure of the straight line holding portion 11a will be described in detail later.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the leg 3 is tilted forward with an angle θ of the front surface of the foot formed by the direction axis of the leg 3 and the direction axis of the foot 5 being 90 ° or less.

  The heel portion 4 is knitted by a forward / reverse inversion knitting, but is knitted so that the leg portion 3 and the foot portion 5 are drawn together so that the leg portion 3 is in a forward inclined state. The knitting structure of the collar portion 4 will be described in detail later.

  The foot portion 5 has a knitting structure similar to a general sock by forward knitting.

  The toe portion 6 has a knitting structure similar to that of a general sock by forward / reverse knitting.

  The contracted portions 12 a and 18 a are knitted between the front surface portion of the ankle, that is, between the leg portion 3 and the foot portion 5. The contraction parts 12a and 18a keep the leg part 3 in a forward inclined state.

  FIG. 3 is a development view showing the knitted structure of the sock 1. The sock 1 is knitted from the mouth 2 toward the toe 6 by a circular knitting machine.

  First, the tubular fabric 11 of the mouth 2 is knitted by forward knitting. In the wear mouth 2, the straight holding part 11 a is knitted on the sole side, that is, the rear side, in the range of 1/8 to 2/5 of the circumference. In FIG. 1 (a), the straight line holding portion 11a is provided on the rear side of the mouthpiece 2, but as shown in FIG. 1 (b), two straight line holding portions 11b, 11c may be provided, and the three straight line holding portions 11a, 11b, and 11c may form a triangle. Methods for knitting the straight line holding portions 11a, 11b, and 11c include (1) flat knitting and (2) tack knitting.

  In the method using the first flat knitting, 4 to 6 courses are inserted into the normal knitting in the normal / reverse knitting in the middle of the normal knitting. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4, in the middle of forward knitting, the straight line holding portion 11a, which is a flat knitted rectangular fabric, is knitted while forming an edge by forward and reverse knitting. As shown in FIG. 5, the flat knitting has a property of being wound in the wale direction and having a sub-cylindrical shape in the course direction. Therefore, the flat knitting straight holding portion 11 a has straight holding ability. As shown in FIG. 7, the shape of the edge is a combination of trapezoid and inverted trapezoid hypotenuses (a), an inverted trapezoid and trapezoid hypotenuse (b), trapezoid hypotenuse (c), inverted trapezoid hypotenuse. (D), there are combinations (e) of trapezoidal and inverted trapezoidal hypotenuses and rectangular sides. In the case of FIG. 6A, the straight line holding portion 11 a has a bag shape like the collar portion 4.

  The flat knitting straight line holding portion 11a becomes easier to wind in the wale direction as the stitches s shown in FIG. For this reason, the straight line holding portion 11a is more tightly contracted than the normal rotation knitted portion of the wear mouth 2 or has a shrinking force such as spandex, false twisted nylon, polyester, etc. Use thread. To close the stitches S, as shown in FIG. 8, three latch bases for holding stitches (yarns) by moving the sinker 31 provided above the cylinder 30 of the circular knitting machine forward and backward in the radial direction of the cylinders 30. The size of the loop of the stitch is selected by selecting any one of 32, changing the dimension h between the latch base 32 of the sinker 31 and the hook 34 of the lowered needle 33, and further changing the degree of lowering of the knitting needle 34. This can be done by changing

  In the second tuck knitting method, a stitch is not made temporarily in the middle of a course in the middle of normal rotation knitting, but is stitched together when the next course is knitted. The tack knitting is also wound in the wale direction and has a sub-cylindrical knitting structure in the course direction. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 9, the front yarn is knitted for each stitch, and the back yarns are several times stacked.

  Wearing by reducing the degree s of the straight line holding parts 11a, 11b, 11c and knitting the knitted part between the adjacent straight line holding parts 11a, 11b, 11c and the knitted part of the leg part 3 large The mouth 2 can be easily extended. Moreover, since it becomes easy to bend between the linear holding parts 11a, 11b, and 11c, the linear holding effect of the linear holding parts 11a, 11b, and 11c can be heightened.

  Following the cuff 2, the cylindrical fabric 12 of the leg 3 is knitted by forward knitting. In the latter half of the knitting of the cylindrical fabric 12 of the leg portion 3, the contraction portion 12a is knitted at the center on the instep side, that is, at the front side of the ankle portion.

  Usually, by knitting an extra bulging portion that becomes the collar portion 4 with respect to the tubular knitted fabric, the fabric on the back side with respect to the collar portion 4 is left over. Furthermore, in the present embodiment, since the knitted structure in which the leg portion 3 is tilted forward, a difference in the fabric with the front side surface with respect to the fabric on the heel portion 4 side is more caused. , More fabric is left on the front of the ankle. For this reason, in order to prevent warping due to the fabric surplus, the front surface of the ankle is fastened by the shrinking portion 12a by tack knitting or float knitting. At this time, the shape of the contraction part 12a is not a problem as long as it is in the key point on the front of the ankle, but it has a diamond shape especially when viewed from the upper part, so that the center part of the front of the ankle where the fabric is more likely to be Since it can shrink more, the effect as a hold-up is great. Moreover, since the difference with the cloth | dough of the front surface of an ankle has arisen, there exists an effect which the leg part 3 is pulled by the front surface, and it becomes a forward inclination angle, and the opening of the wear mouth 2 is expanded to the front side.

  Following the leg part 3, the collar part 4 is knitted into a bag shape by forward and reverse reversal knitting.

  A conventional general heel part knitting a bag that wraps the cocoon by a combination of trapezoidal fabrics, and stores the heel part. The trapezoidal fabric is knitted by forward / reverse knitting using a circular knitting machine. During knitting by forward / reverse knitting, the knitting needles are raised one by one one by one to reduce the knitting width. The upper region and the lower region for increasing the knitting width by lowering the knitting needles one by one for operation. As a result, the angle of the hypotenuse of the trapezoidal fabric to be knitted becomes about 45 ° (usually trapezoid). Usually, the trapezoidal fabrics are connected to each other to form a conventional bag-like bag shape.

  In the embodiment of the present invention, when knitting by forward / reverse inversion knitting as in the conventional knitting method, the needle upper area is not increased or decreased by one knitting needle one by one, but needle lowering is combined in the needle upper area. Organize. (For example, by raising two knitting needles in the needle upper region and lowering one knitting needle in the needle lower region, the needles rise at intervals of 2: 1, and the hypotenuse of the trapezoidal fabric becomes 60 °.) Alternatively, knitting is performed by combining needle raising in the needle lower area. As a result, a trapezoidal fabric having a longer angle than that of a normal trapezoid can be knitted. Because if the trapezoidal fabric (long trapezoid) with the hypotenuse of the trapezoidal fabric exceeds 45 °, if the normal trapezoid and the solid start point are the same and the solid end point is the same knitting needle width, the difference in knitting angle Knitting more fabric.

  In general, knitting using half the knitting needle of the tubular fabric, but in addition to the knitting needle for half the circumference, about 1/10 right and left knitting needles of the entire knitting needle should be involved from the beginning of the knitting of the buttock. Thus, a larger fabric width can be obtained, and a knitted structure inclined forward on the entire side surface of the sock ankle can be taken.

  The knitting of the heel part 4 will be specifically described. In the first trapezoidal fabric 13 constituting the collar portion 4, one or more courses are knitted by a knitting method in which the angle of the hypotenuse of the trapezoidal fabric that is normally trapezoidal is 45 °. Following that configuration, the second trapezoidal fabric 14 is knitted to a length of about two-thirds of the buttocks by long trapezoidal knitting. Further, the remaining one third is knitted with a third trapezoidal fabric 15 that is normally trapezoidal. Up to here is the heel part of the bag-like fabric of the heel part. Next, the fourth trapezoidal fabric 16 is knitted into a long trapezoid. As the knitting of the fourth trapezoidal fabric 16 proceeds, the connection with the third trapezoidal fabric 15 is performed. Accordingly, since the third trapezoidal dough 15 is normally trapezoidal, the angle of the hypotenuse of the trapezoid is about 45 °, whereas the fourth trapezoid dough 16 is a long trapezoid, so the angle of the hypotenuse of the trapezoid exceeds 45 °. In the long trapezoid of the angle, the number of eyes in the wale direction is larger than the number of eyes in the constant course direction, so the amount of fabric is large, and when connecting, there is a difference in the number of courses. The four trapezoidal fabrics 16 are warped and connected. Thereby, the connecting line (gore line) generated when the fabrics are connected bends toward the back of the heel, and the heel bag fabric draws a curved surface in a shape suitable for the heel. As a result, the fourth trapezoidal fabric 16 supplements the fabric covered from the sole along the shape of the heel, so that the ground contact surface can be tightly wrapped. Subsequently, the fourth trapezoidal fabric 16 is knitted and connected to the second trapezoidal fabric 14. Since the second trapezoidal fabric 14 is knitted by a long trapezoid, the long trapezoids are connected to each other to form a collar portion 4 having a forward tilt angle. Subsequently, the fifth trapezoidal fabric 17 is knitted one or more courses in the normal trapezoidal manner in the same manner as the first trapezoidal fabric 13 and is connected to the first trapezoidal fabric 13. Thus far, the knitting of the bag-like fabric of the heel part 4 is completed.

  When the knitting of the heel part 4 is finished, the cylindrical fabric 18 of the foot part 5 is knitted by forward knitting. In the first half of the cylindrical fabric 18 of the foot 5, the contracted portion 18 a continuous with the contracted portion 12 a of the leg 3 is knitted in the same manner as the contracted portion 12 a at the center on the instep side, that is, the front side of the ankle portion.

  Following the foot part 5, the trapezoidal fabrics 19 and 20 of the toe part 6 are continuously knitted by forward and reverse inversion knitting, and the knitting of the sock 1 is finished.

  In the first embodiment, the linear holding portion 11a provided in the mouth 2 naturally expands the mouth 2 or, if the mouth 2 is expanded in a normal posture, the expanded state is maintained. The sock 1 can be put on in a normal posture without using the both hands.

It is knitted. The knitting structure of the straight line holding portion 22a will be described in detail later.

  The handle 7 is provided on the rear side of the mouthpiece 2 so as to be continuous with the straight line holding portion 22a.

  FIG. 11 is a development view showing the knitted structure of the sock 1a. The sock 1a is knitted from the mouth 2 to the toe portion 6 by a circular knitting machine.

  First, the cylindrical fabric 21 of the inner leg 3a and the cylindrical fabric 22 of the mouth 2 are knitted by forward knitting. The leg portion 3 is knitted with a broad rib knitting in which rubber is inserted into a flat knitting.

  The handle 7 is knitted following the mouth 2 of the inner leg 3a. The handle 7 first knits the first trapezoidal fabric 23 serving as the straight line holding portion 22a by a normal knitting reverse knitting with a flat knitting that is tighter than the leg portion 3. Subsequently, the handle body fabric 24 is knitted with a pile knitting while forming an edge by a forward / reverse knitting. Thereafter, the second small trapezoidal fabric 25 serving as the straight line holding portion 22a is knitted with a flat knitting that is tighter than the leg portion 3 while being connected to the first small trapezoidal fabric 23 by a forward / reverse inversion knitting.

After the handle 7 is knitted, the cylindrical fabric 22 of the outer mouth 2 and the cylindrical fabric 27 of the outer leg 3b following the cylindrical fabric 22 of the outer mouth 2 are knitted by forward knitting. .
The outer leg portion 3b is knitted with a broad rib knitting in which rubber is inserted into a flat knitting, similarly to the inner leg portion 3a and the shoe mouths 22 and 23. The knitting after the inner leg 3b is performed in the same manner as in the first embodiment, and the knitting of the sock 1a is finished.

  In the sock 1a of the second embodiment, the base of the handle 7 provided on the rear side of the mouth 2 plays the role of the straight line holding portion 22a. Therefore, when the handle 7 is grasped, the mouth 2 naturally expands. . The sock la can be easily put on with one hand by holding the handle 7, putting a toe into the open mouth 2, and pulling up the handle 7.

  Moreover, since the leg part 3 including the mouth 2 is a double broad rib knitting of the inner leg part 3a and the outer leg part 3b, the soles of the foot part 5 and the heel part 4 are placed on the floor or the like. In the state, as shown in FIG. 510, the leg portion 3 is kept standing on the foot portion 5 and the heel portion 4. For this reason, it is possible to put the toe of the foot into the wearing mouth 2 without holding the sock 1a while keeping the sock 1a on the floor.

<Third Embodiment>
12 and 13 show a sock 1b according to a third embodiment of the present invention. The sock 1b is substantially the same as that of the second embodiment except that, in addition to the straight line holding part 22a at the base of the handle 7, two straight line holding parts 22b and 22c are knitted in the mouth 2. Corresponding portions are denoted by the same reference numerals and description thereof is omitted.

  The two straight holding portions 22b and 22c are knitted in the mouth 2 of the inner leg portion 3a in a range of 1/8 to 2/5 of the circumference. As shown in FIG. 5, the two straight line holding portions 22 b and 22 c are provided at positions that are symmetric with respect to a center line that connects the front and rear of the footwear 2. The knitting structure of the straight line holding part 22a is the same as that of the second embodiment of FIG. 11, and the knitting structure of the straight line holding parts 22b and 22c is the same as that of the second embodiment of FIGS.

  The straight line holding part 22a at the base of the handle 7 and the two straight line holding parts 22b and 22c on both sides of the wear mouth 2 form an isosceles triangle with the straight line holding part 22a at the base of the handle 7 as a base. Since the straight line holding part 22a at the base of the handle 7 is harder to bend than the other parts of the wearing mouth, the straight line holding function is achieved in the same manner as the two straight line holding parts 22b and 22c. For this reason, the mouth 2 is opened in the shape of an isosceles triangle.

  In the sock 1b of the third embodiment, since the base of the handle 7 provided on the rear side of the mouth 2 plays the role of the straight line holding portion 22a, the mouth 2 is naturally formed together with the other straight line holding portions 22b and 22c.
