Description

  The present invention relates to a support sock that adjusts the shape of the sole to a normal shape by wearing socks, prevents falls during walking, and is effective for correction.

  In recent years, attention has been paid to the shape of the soles during walking in walking exercises for the purpose of maintaining health. In order to enhance the effect of walking movement, the walking balance from landing to kicking is important, and especially the heel is closely related to walking balance and kicking, and the walking movement depends on the shape of the sole. The

  As shown in FIG. 4, the normal sole shape has three types of arches formed on the sole. These three types of arches are the inner arch 91 formed between the heel 931 and the base of the thumb (thumb) (first metatarsal 911), and the base of the heel (small finger) from the heel 931 (the fifth middle). Formed between the outer arch 92 formed between the foot bones 921) and the base of the thumb (thumb) (first metatarsal 911) and the base of the toe (small finger) (fifth metatarsal 921). The front arch 93 is formed. When these arches are deformed, normal walking becomes difficult.

  For example, if the force to kick the ground at the tip of the heel is weak, the center of gravity moves closer to the heel, and the gait and the base of the toes are the only two points on the ground (sliding foot walking). Furthermore, by performing such walking, the posture is such that the footpad is not used further, so that the muscle strength is weakened and the footpad is in a floating state, so-called floating state. The buoyancy is weak in the toes of the toes, resulting in an unstable walking balance, leading to a fall during walking.

  In addition, when the arch shape of the front arch 93 shown in FIG. 4 is disturbed (decreased), the metatarsal bones of each finger open in a fan shape, so that the so-called open leg is formed, which causes a hallux valgus and a hallux valgus. Further, when the vertical arch is lowered, it becomes a flat foot. The muscles of the legs are strengthened by extending and contracting with a load of weight, but if the kicking of the legs becomes weak, the muscles of the soles and legs cannot actively expand and contract, and the above-mentioned arch shapes It becomes even more disturbed, leading to open legs and flat feet.

  Therefore, as shown in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, there is a sock that is made of a stretchable material from the sole part to both sides of the foot surface part and forcibly forms an arch shape by the force of contraction of the part. Proposed earlier.

  However, since the socks shown in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 use an elastic material having a contraction force enough to form an arch shape on the sole of the foot, it presses the capillaries on the skin surface at the time of wearing to prevent poor blood circulation. There was a problem that it was not suitable for wearing for a long time. In addition, it is necessary to spread the contracted elastic material at the time of wearing, but due to the strength of the contraction force, it was difficult for elderly people and infants with weak power to wear.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and can arrange the shape of the sole to prevent falling during walking and to maintain and improve the body balance function, and for a long time without pain. An object is to provide a support sock that can be worn and easily detached.

  For this reason, the support sock of the present invention is a five-finger sock composed of a finger part, a foot part, and a rubber band part, and a triangular prism-shaped pad member is placed on the outer surface or inner surface of the bottom part of the foot part. The first characteristic is that it is provided in the direction.

  A second feature is that a non-slip member is provided on the bottom of the foot.

The support socks of the present invention have the following excellent effects.
(1) By adopting a five-finger sock shape, it is possible to move the toes freely when worn, and the ability is divided in a well-balanced manner for each toe. It can be carried out.
(2) Triangular prism-shaped pad members are provided on the outer or inner surface of the bottom of the foot so that the apex of the pad member faces the fingertip direction, so that three kinds of arch shapes are automatically formed in the shape of the sole due to the heavy foot pressure during walking. Is done. That is, it is possible to form a normal sole shape, to prevent falls and to maintain and improve the body balance function.

It is a bottom view which shows one Example of the support socks which concern on this invention. It is a longitudinal cross-sectional view explaining the wearing state of the support socks which concern on this invention. It is a perspective view explaining the wearing condition of the support socks concerning the present invention. It is a perspective view explaining the vertical and horizontal arch formed in a sole.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the support sock 1 according to the present invention is a sock shape in which a stretchable fabric for covering a part of a toe, an upper part, and a sole is sewn, and includes stockings and panties. It is knitted with a very thin and elastic material similar to stockings. The support socks 1 are roughly divided into three parts: a finger part 11, a foot part 12, and a gum part 13. The support sock 1 shown in FIG. 1 is worn on the right foot.

  The stretch fabric used for the support socks 1 according to the present invention is formed of a fabric such as a knitted fabric, a woven fabric, or a non-woven fabric, and includes fibers such as nylon yarn, polyester yarn, cotton yarn, acrylic yarn, polyurethane yarn, and rubber yarn. It is preferable to sew, but it is not particularly limited. Nylon yarn, polyester yarn, cotton yarn, surface yarn that is a blended yarn of cotton and polyester fiber or acrylic fiber, and polyurethane yarn or rubber yarn as a supplementary yarn You may knit with the back yarn which is the covering yarn covered with the polyester yarn.

  Moreover, it is more preferable to provide the stretch fabric with a deodorizing and deodorizing function. As a method for imparting antibacterial and deodorizing functions, any method may be used as long as the touch of the stretchable fabric and the set pressure are not impaired, for example, water and an inorganic solute such as silver or ceramics. Disperse to make a solution, soak the support socks 1 in this solution to soak the solute (ultrafine particles of silver or ceramics) in the fiber, and then squeeze it through a roller to ultrafine silver or ceramics A method may be adopted in which the fine particles are strongly adhered to the fibers, and the excess solution is squeezed out and then dried by a drier to infiltrate the silver-containing ceramics into the fibers of the support socks 1. Further, for the purpose of moisturizing the skin, preventing aging, and whitening, a substance that adjusts the physiological function of the skin and a substance such as a fragrance can be applied to or impregnated into the fiber.

  The finger part 11 is formed in a so-called five-finger sock shape that allows five toes to pass through, and can freely move each toe when worn. In the present embodiment, it is worn in a form close to bare feet and is opened without covering the fingertips for the purpose of enhancing comfort, but there is no particular limitation, and all toes may be covered. The five-finger socks shape has a balanced balance of strength for each toe, so that it can be used for a more stable walk.

  The mouth rubber portion 13 is configured to have a shrinkage force in the circumferential direction by weaving a shrinkable rubber yarn in the circumferential direction into the fabric described above. Usually, the same structure as the mouth rubber used in socks is used, but in the support socks 1 of the present invention, the mouth rubber portion 13 prevents ease of blood circulation by pressing the capillaries on the skin surface with ease during wearing. From the viewpoint, it is preferable to use one having relatively weak contraction force. In the present embodiment, the mouth rubber portion 13 is positioned to contract the instep of the foot, but is not limited to this. For example, the length of the foot 12 covers the heel. Thus, the mouth rubber portion 13 may be provided at a position where the ankle contracts.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the support sock 1 includes a pad 14 made of silicon on the bottom surface of the foot 12. As shown in FIG. 2, the pad 14 is attached to the inside of the bottom surface of the support sock 1 with a pressure-bonding sheet 15. As shown in FIG. 3, the pad 14 is formed in a triangular prism shape with a thickness of about 5 mm, and is arranged at the approximate center of the foot 12 with its apex 14 a facing the tip of the foot. Therefore, by stepping on when wearing, each apex raises the tendon and muscle directly above, and the inner arch 91, the outer arch 92, and the front arch 93 are naturally formed, and a normal sole shape can be formed. it can. When the pad 14 is formed in a cylindrical shape or a quadrangular prism shape, the position of the pad 14 is shifted, and the triangle connecting the inner arch 91, the outer arch 92, and the front arch 93 is not formed beautifully, and is the same as the present invention. It is difficult to obtain the effect.

  As described with reference to FIG. 4, the sole includes an inner arch 91 formed from the heel 931 to the first metatarsal 911, and an outer arch 92 formed from the heel 931 to the fifth metatarsal 921; The front arch 93 formed from the first metatarsal 911 to the fifth metatarsal 921 is formed. However, when a load is applied by wearing high heels, the front arch 93 is lowered and becomes almost horizontal. It is important to keep the shape of the front arch 93 normal because shock absorption by the bottom arch is not normally performed and falls easily, or the plantar aponeurosis is inflamed. Therefore, in the support socks 1 of the present invention, three types of arch shapes are supported by stepping on the triangular prism-shaped pad 14. This is the gist of the present invention. For example, a non-slip member made of a rubber material or the like is attached to the bottom surface to perform anti-slip processing. For example, the pad 14 provided inside the bottom surface of the foot 12 is provided. Needless to say, various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention, such as being provided outside the bottom surface.
