Abstract

(57) [Abstract] [Problem] Sterilization of perspiration site [Means for solving printing] Metal thread 1, normal thread 2, elastic thread 3
The metal yarn 1 is knitted so as to be exposed on the back surface and not exposed on the front surface, and the normal thread 2 is exposed on the front surface and not exposed on the back surface. The metal thread 1 is a synthetic fiber plated with a metal such as silver, gold or copper.

[Field of Invention]

 The present invention relates to a stretchable knitted product in which three yarns including a metal yarn and a stretchable yarn are used and the metal yarn is exposed on the back surface.

[0002]

[Problems to be solved by conventional techniques and devices]

 A knitting method in which three yarns including elastic yarns are used and only one type of yarn is exposed on the front side and only one type of the remaining two types of yarn is exposed on the back side is disclosed in JP-A-57-57. 61701, JP-A-57-139547, JP-A-57-143549, and various other proposals.

Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 57-61701 discloses a sock in which a moisture-retentive yarn is exposed on the outer surface and a hygroscopic and sweat-retaining yarn is exposed on the outer surface, and an intermediate layer is formed of elastic yarn. The socks are intended to prevent stuffiness caused by sweating of the feet.

The applicant notices that metal ions have an effect on sterilization, and knits them with three kinds of threads including a stretchable thread and a metal thread. From the front side, the appearance and the feel are the same as a normal thread cloth. The purpose of this study is to clarify stretchable knitted products that are comparable to sterilization and have stretchability, which is ideal for clothing that directly touches the skin, such as socks and shoulder supporters.

[0005]

[Means for solving the problem]

 The stretchable knitted product according to the present invention has a knitting structure using three kinds of yarns, that is, a metal yarn (1), a normal yarn (2) and a stretchable yarn (3). The knitting is performed so that it is exposed and not exposed on the front surface, and the ordinary yarn (2) is exposed on the front surface and not exposed on the back surface.

Further, in the stretchable knitted product of the present invention, the metal yarn (1) is a synthetic fiber which is plated with a metal such as silver, gold or copper.

In the stretchable knitted product of the present invention, the silk yarn is exposed on the surface and the silver-plated yarn is exposed on the back surface.

[0008]

[Action and effect]

 When the present invention is applied to socks, it has good elasticity and fits on the wearer's foot, and is comfortable to wear. Since the metal thread (1) directly contacts the wearer's foot, the sweat of the foot touches the metal thread (1) to release metal ions.

As is well known, since metal ions have an excellent bactericidal action, they have an antibacterial and deodorant effect and an inhibitory effect on the growth of athlete's foot fungus against Trichophyton. The appearance of socks with plain yarn is comparable to that of conventional socks, and there is no aesthetic problem.

Since it is knitted with three kinds of threads and the metal thread having high heat conductivity is exposed on the back surface, it has an excellent heat retaining effect and is most suitable for underwear. When the present invention is applied to a supporter that covers the shoulders of the wearer, the upper part of the back, and the armpits so as to wrap the wearer, it is excellent in elasticity and is comfortable to wear. Effective in preventing underarm odor.

[0011]

[Mode for Carrying Out the Invention]

 The normal thread (2) was a silk thread, the metal thread (1) was a silver-plated thread whose surface was silver-plated, and the elastic thread (3) was a nylon covering polyurethane fiber, so-called FTY.

With the above three threads, the silk thread is exposed on the surface of the cloth, the silver-plated thread is exposed on the back surface, and the stretchable thread (3) is knitted by a known method so that it is located in the intermediate layer. A technique for exposing a specific yarn on the front surface and the back surface when it is knitted with three yarns including the elastic yarn (3) is well known, and therefore its explanation is omitted.

When the present invention is applied to socks, it has good elasticity and fits on the wearer's foot, and is comfortable to wear. Since the metal thread (1) directly contacts the wearer's foot, metal ions are released when sweat of the foot touches the metal thread (1).

As is well known, since silver ions have an excellent bactericidal action, they exert an antibacterial and deodorant effect, and the feet are kept clean. The effect of inhibiting the growth of athlete's foot on Trichophyton and the effect on the growth of Staphylococcus aureus, which is the source of odor, were also observed.

The appearance of socks is the same as that of conventional silk socks, and there is no problem in terms of aesthetics. Since it is knitted with 3 threads and the metal thread with high heat conductivity is exposed on the back side, it has an excellent heat retaining effect and is most suitable for underwear.

As shown in FIG. 2, when it is applied to a supporter (4) that covers both shoulders, upper back and both armpits of the wearer, it is excellent in elasticity and comfortable to wear. It is effective in preventing axillary odor by the bactericidal action against sweating.

In the practice of the present invention, the metal yarn may be copper-plated or other metal-plated synthetic fiber. In addition, the present invention uses not only silk threads but also vegetable fiber threads, chemical fiber threads, and mixed threads of these as normal threads, and it is also possible to use a plurality of normal threads, such as underwear, a hat, a pregnancy zone, spats, The present invention can be applied to various kinds of cloth products such as leg warmers, and is not limited to the configuration of the above embodiment, but various modifications can be made within the scope of the utility model registration claim.
