Description

  The present invention relates to an auxiliary device for socks used when wearing socks.

  Conventionally, when people with indirect disabilities such as legs or waist or elderly people who lost flexibility of the body wear socks, it is difficult to reach the toes, it takes time, it is well I couldn't wear it. For this reason, in order to wear socks, it is often necessary to help others.

In view of this, an assisting device that allows elderly people or physically handicapped to wear socks by themselves is considered. In other words, an auxiliary tool is proposed that consists of a guide part that is curved so as to surround the sole and both sides, and a grip part for holding by hand, and an anti-slip part is provided on the back side of this guide part. (For example, refer to Patent Document 1). Also, a guide member having an arc cross-sectional shape that conforms to the shape of the sole, and is provided with an anti-slip portion for socks on the back side surface of the guide member by linking a tensile cord to two locations on the front end portion of the guide member. A tool has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

  As for the above-mentioned auxiliary tools such as socks, when the socks are first fitted into the guide portion or the tip portion of the guide member by hand, the rubber mouth portion of the socks has an arc cross-sectional shape between both sides of the guide portion or the like. Open. Next, a foot is placed on the guide portion or the like, and a foot tip is inserted into the opened portion. Then, the user uses the auxiliary tool by pulling the gripping part or the pulling string toward the front and inserting the entire foot into the sock while pulling out the auxiliary tool. The anti-slip part provided on the back side of the guide part prevents the sock from slipping out of the guide part when the foot is inserted into the sock and prevents the sock from being pulled out when the auxiliary tool is pulled out. The rubber mouth can be pulled up above the ankle. In addition, since the socks are put on by pulling the gripping part or the tension string toward the front, it is not necessary to bend the body much.

  However, the inventor of the present application has found that the above-described assisting devices such as socks have the following problems to be improved. In other words, the toe of the foot can be inserted relatively easily into the rubber mouth of the sock that opens between both sides of the guide, etc., but when inserting the instep of the foot that gradually increases in height, The upper collides with the rubber mouth of the sock, making it difficult to insert the foot any more. In addition, when the legs are forcibly inserted, the socks may come out of the guide portion or the like.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to solve the above-described problems and provide an auxiliary tool for socks that can be worn more easily.

  The feature of the auxiliary device for socks according to the present invention is that a sheet member is added to the tip of the cylindrical portion described above. That is, the sock aid according to the present invention has a main body portion and a sheet member having a predetermined length. The main body portion includes a guide portion having a length of a foot and a grip portion having a predetermined length. Moreover, the said guide part is formed in the U-shaped cross section, and the slip prevention part of socks is provided in the back surface of the said guide part. And the one end part of the said sheet | seat member is attached to the front-end | tip part of the said guide part.

  It is preferable that the sheet member has substantially the same length as the guide portion and has a wider width than the guide portion. Further, it is more desirable that the tip end portion of the guide portion has a tapered shape. Further, it is desirable that the anti-slip portion is a sheet-like friction member.

  Here, the “sheet member” corresponds to, for example, a synthetic resin sheet, cloth, or a sheet obtained by coating or impregnating the surface of the cloth with synthetic resin. The “foot length” means the length from the toes of the foot to the rear end of the heel. The “predetermined length of the gripping part” means that when inserting a foot into a sock fitted in the guide part, it is supported by grasping the guide part by hand, and when the guide part is pulled out, the body is not much This means anything that has a length that can be grasped by a hand without bending, and is not limited to one that is formed integrally with the guide part, but also includes a part that is connected to the guide part.

  The “slip prevention part” refers to the rubber part of the sock when the sock is in contact with the tip of the guide part while the sock is in contact, and the foot is then inserted into the sock. It means all means capable of preventing the sock from slipping out of the guide part due to frictional force with the mouth part and the like, and pulling up the rubber mouth part of the sock above the ankle when the auxiliary tool is pulled out. For example, a sheet-like member such as rubber, a synthetic resin, or a cloth with a fluffed surface, a plate-like member provided with irregularities on the surface, a belt-like protrusion formed on the back surface of the guide portion, and the like are applicable. Further, the “tapered shape” means a shape in which the width of the distal end portion of the cylindrical member is gradually narrowed when the sock aid is viewed from above.

  By attaching one end portion of the sheet member to the distal end portion of the guide portion, it can be more easily inserted into the sock. That is, when the sheet member is overlapped on the upper side surface of the guide portion and the sock is inserted into the tip portion of the guide portion by hand, as described above, the rubber mouth of the sock is placed between the side portions of the guide portion and the like. The part opens in an arc cross-sectional shape. Next, when the rear end portion of the sheet member protruding outside the rubber mouth portion of the sock is grasped and bent upward, a space is formed between the lower surface of the sheet member and both side portions of the guide portion. Therefore, if you put your foot on the guide part and insert the tip of the foot into this open part, the instep of the foot will slide well due to the smooth surface of the seat member, and the entire foot can be easily inserted into the sock it can.

  Next, when the guide portion is pulled out, the sheet member is pulled while sliding between the upper side of the sock and the surface of the instep, and the foot member is turned from the upper side to the lower side so that the lower side of the sock and the bottom of the foot It can be easily pulled out from between.

  The following effects are also exhibited. That is, the socks can be supported or pulled out without bending the body so much by the grip portion having a predetermined length. In addition, by forming the guide part in a U-shaped cross-sectional shape, the rubber mouth part of the sock is in a circular cross-sectional shape between both side parts of the guide part etc. Therefore, it becomes easy to insert the toe of the foot into the opening. By providing a sock slip prevention part on the back of the guide part, it is possible to prevent the sock from slipping out of the guide part due to frictional force with the rubber mouth part of the sock when inserting the foot into the sock. When the device is pulled out, the rubber mouth of the sock can be pulled up above the ankle.

  By making the seat member approximately the same length as the guide part and wider than this guide part, it is possible to cover not only the upper surface of the instep but also both sides, so fit the socks on the guide part. Easy to install. By making the tip portion of the guide portion taper, it becomes easy to fit the socks into the guide portion. By making the sheet-like friction member an anti-slip portion, the prevention portion can be made thin. Therefore, it becomes easy to fit the socks in the guide portion.

  The sock aid according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. Now, as shown in FIG. 1, the sock auxiliary tool has a main body 1 and a sheet member 2, and the main body has a guide portion having a U-shaped cross section with a length of a foot. 11 and a grip portion 12 having a main body portion by hand. Further, one end of the sheet member 2 is attached to the distal end portion of the guide portion 11, and a sock slip prevention portion 11a is provided on the back surface of the guide portion.

  The guide portion 11 is a plate member made of synthetic resin having elasticity, and the surface thereof is covered with a double knitted knitted fabric. The front knitted fabric of the double knitted knitted fabric has a pile shape in which all the loops are disengaged to stand up. The guide portion 11 has a length of about 20 cm and a width of about 10 cm, and is formed into an arc cross-sectional shape that fits the bottom surface of the foot 3, the heel, and the like. The cross-sectional shape has an arc length of approximately 120 degrees in the vicinity of the center in the length direction of the guide portion 11, and the lateral width increases toward the tip of the guide portion and the boundary portion with the grip portion 12. It is getting narrower gradually. In addition, a thin sheet-like anti-slip portion 11 a is provided at the tip portion on the back side of the guide portion 11. In addition, the prevention part 11a forms foaming urethane in mesh shape. Further, the anti-slip portion 11a is not limited to covering the entire back side of the guide portion 11, and may be provided at a plurality of locations partially.

  The grip portion 12 is integrally connected to the rear end of the guide portion 11, and is formed in an arc cross-sectional shape having a length of about 25 cm and a width of about 5 cm. An opening hole is opened at the rear end portion of the handle portion 12, and an auxiliary tool for socks can be hooked on a hook provided on a wall or the like.

  The sheet member 2 is made of a vinyl sheet having a small frictional resistance and is formed to have substantially the same length and width as the guide portion 11. The front end of the sheet member 2 is firmly bonded to the back surface of the front end of the guide portion 11 with an adhesive.

  Finally, with reference to FIG. 2 to FIG. 4, a method for using an auxiliary tool for socks according to the present invention will be described. First, as shown in FIG. 2, the sheet member 2 is overlapped on the upper surface of the guide portion 11, and the sock is fitted into the tip portion of the guide portion by hand. In this case, the tip of the sock 4 is placed so as to contact the tip of the guide portion 11. The rubber mouth portion 4a of the sock 4 is sufficiently covered with the slip prevention portion 11a. Then, when the rear end portion of the sheet member 2 protruding outside the rubber mouth portion 4a of the sock 4 is gripped and bent upward, the space between the lower surface of the sheet member and both side portions of the guide portion opens.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 3, while supporting the rear end of the grip portion 12 with the hand 5, the foot 3 is placed on the upper surface of the guide portion 11 and the foot tip is inserted into the rubber mouth portion 4 a of the opening sock 4. The smooth surface of the sheet member 2 allows the foot to be easily inserted into the sock. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, when the guide part 11 is pulled out by grasping the rear end of the grip part 12 with the hand 5, the sock 4 is pulled upward by the slip prevention part 11a, and the entire foot 3 is Can be inserted into.

  The sheet member 2 is slipped and pulled between the upper side of the sock 4 and the surface of the upper of the foot 3, and the foot member turns from the upper side to the lower side so that the lower side of the sock and the bottom of the foot It is pulled out from between.
